"There's more. Feng Jiwen shifted her body, smiled at Concubine Guo and asked, "Do you think I'm whiter?"
Feng Jiwen in the past gave people the impression that it was not black, but it was mostly built up by applying grease and powder, coupled with her short temper, uncontrolled diet, heavy yellow gas on her face, and acne, so after removing the fat powder, the skin condition is really flattering.
Looking at her with a smile and a smile on her face, looking coquettish and kind, the concubine's heart couldn't help but soften, but she still said: "A little girl in her teens, she can't compare to me, a person who has most of her body submerged in the loess, and she still dares to say that she is white?"
Feng Jiwen felt that she was a little square.
Looking at the face in front of her, which could not pick out a single flaw, she asked rhetorically, "Can I compare with you?"
She didn't want to humiliate herself.
"Age is here, you have such a big advantage, but you say such uncompromising words. Concubine Guo glanced at her and said, "When I was your age, I don't know how many times better my complexion is than now, but now I am old." ”
Feng Jiwen looked at her dumbfounded.
How beautiful did this young man be......
Can you still give them mediocre people a way to live?
Feng Jiwen refused to discuss this topic anymore and picked up Jinghuai to play.
"Jinghuai seems to be fat, has he eaten too much fish recently?"
It was only later that she learned that the pond of fish raised in Jingyun Nunnery was not for ornamentation, but for Jinghuai's food.
Although the concubine herself is a vegetarian, she has not deliberately changed the nature of the animal.
"It's not that I'm fat, I'm pregnant. Concubine Guo said lightly while eating tea.
Feng Jiwen asked in surprise, "Aren't there no other cats in Jingyun Nunnery?"
"Wild cats behind the mountain. At the mention of this, Concubine Guo frowned slightly, as if she felt that her noble Jinghuai had been defiled.
Feng Jiwen hurriedly asked, "Then when the time comes, can you keep one for me?"
She likes Jinghuai very much, but she doesn't want to be loved, so she hasn't asked the concubine for it.
Of course, even if she opened her mouth, it probably wouldn't be of much use.
The concubine let out a faint "um" when she heard this, and she agreed.
Feng Jiwen was overjoyed.
After staying for a while, seeing that the hour was not early, Feng Jiwen said goodbye and said that she would come over after the shoes were redone.
The concubine nodded expressionlessly, but together with Mama Yu, she sent people out of the gate, and only turned back when she saw the carriage disappear from sight.
……
As soon as Feng Jiwen returned to the house, someone came to report that someone had sent a bag over, saying that she had picked up something she had left outside the city.
Because the person who came was a man, the servant did not make a noise, but only sent him directly to the Tang Courtyard for Feng Jiwen to identify.
Feng Jiwen glanced at it and hurriedly asked, "Where is the person who sent the things?"
"Back girl, it's gone. ”
"Do you have any names?"
"Not really. ”
"I see, you go down-"
Feng Jiwen fell into a brief contemplation.
The other party directly asked people to return the things to Yinglian Mansion, obviously knowing her identity.
But he didn't ask for his things back, and he didn't even leave his name.
First, those verses are really unimportant, and secondly, they ...... Is it because he doesn't want to cause her unnecessary trouble?
"Burn the scriptures you brought back. Only then did she say to Xiaoxian.
At that time, in Jingyun Nunnery, she did not follow the orders of Concubine Guo and asked Xiaoxian to burn those things immediately.
Feng Jiwen laughed.
The other party was thoughtful, but it seemed that she had done too much.
However, from this point of view, does the habit of the masses in Chaoyang in Beijing not giving their names come down from the centuries-old frontier?
……
After this rain, it was much colder inside and outside Beijing, and many people had already put on cotton clothes.
But the body is protected, but the cold air is drilled up from the soles of the feet as in previous years.
Leather boots are not something that anyone can afford to wear, and woolen socks are a rarity, so most poor people can only wear cloth shoes with a layer of cotton lining, or an extra pair of socks to keep out the cold.
It's okay now, but when it's colder, my hands and feet will inevitably grow frostbite again like in previous years.
But this year is destined to be different from previous years.
I heard that there are two shops called "Qingyige" that make clothes, shoes and hats, and there is a new style of cotton shoes, which is actually directly sandwiched with cotton, and it is very warm to wear to the feet -- there are not only coarse cloth fabrics that ordinary people can afford to wear, but also high-quality products that are specially designed for the rich and noble families to make fine workmanship and pay attention to materials.
Fresh things have always spread quickly, and they are really comfortable to wear, but after three or five days, the reputation has spread in the city.
Qingyige stepped up the invitation of workers and embroiderers, but the supply still exceeded demand.
It didn't take long for other shops to follow suit, and some people even had other inspirations, from the feet to the hands, to make cotton gloves, but far from the flexibility of modern gloves divided into five fingers, although it is worn to keep out the cold, but it is inconvenient to do work, so it did not cause a great boom like cotton shoes.
Although it was imitated by other houses later, the two shops that walked in the forefront still made a lot of money this time, and even because of the cotton shoes and the reputation of the store, the clothes and hats in the shop were also sold a lot.
In just half a month's effort, I earned more than I earned in the whole year before!
Uncle Qing took this matter to Feng Yinglian, and the old man, who had not paid much attention to this matter, was also very surprised.
After getting Feng Yinglian's signal, Uncle Qing gave Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Liu a red seal respectively, because the idea was thought up by Mrs. Feng, so it was more generous, and Mrs. Liu didn't eat it, in the end, she followed Mrs. Feng to get the light, and she didn't contribute too much, so she also accepted it happily.
On this day, Feng Shuzhi's long-standing uncertainty about the candidate for Mr. Mounted Archery was finally finalized.
This person's name is Ji Yingming, he was originally a retired horseman in the Green Camp Army, although he is nearly fifty years old, his body is very tough, and his riding and archery skills are not wasted at all. Because he has been unable to adapt to the life of ordinary people after being discharged from the army, he used to teach his children to ride and shoot in a family of official eunuchs with a blue banner, but as this group of children has become a year by year, there is no need to continue teaching, and the young ones are too young to pick up the stubble within three or five years, so they are idle at home.
And the reason why Feng Yinglian was able to find this person was because of Yuan Mei's recommendation.
When Feng Jiwen learned about it, she couldn't cry or laugh for a while.
first introduced Ding Ziyu, and then introduced Ji Yingming, the great poet Yuan Mei, who is famous in history, how can he live like a talent intermediary without fees in reality?
