Chapter 268: Recommended
Compared with Li Ren's confusion, Li Qin couldn't help laughing.
In her previous life, she was bent on wanting to marry Du Heng, and it was the first time she knew that the first time this pair of happy enemies met was in this state!
Yes, this woman is Li Ren's wife, the mistress of the Earl's Palace, the lord of Shunning.
In the previous life, everyone in Beijing knew that the county lord of Shunning was pursuing Li Ren, but the youngest little lord's disdain for her was also quite a thing to talk about. But later, the Holy One made the decision and fulfilled them. What no one expected was that after the two got married, they were very affectionate, and they all said that the lord of Shunning would obey Li Renzhi's obedience.
But after thinking about it again, Li Qin also understood a little, after all, it was not glorious to be rejected by a woman in front of the mansion, and there was no one in front of the mansion at this time, so it was normal that this matter was not spread. In addition, in the previous life, he stayed in the backyard all day to learn this and that, how could he have time to know this? But then again, in the previous life, the county lord of Shunning could be said to be obedient to Li Ren, but he never pretended to be true to Li Qin, so the relationship between the two was not close, even if she finally got her younger brother and sister, Li Qin did not get a sincere word of care and greetings from her. So, how could Li Qin inquire about her?
It was easy to wait for Li Ren to recover from the shock, and ordered everyone at the door not to tell anyone, otherwise he would be severely punished, so it was easy to ease his expression and go to the street with Li Qin and Yu Fei.
The sum of the two worlds, Li Qin's time to go shopping on the street is also limited, and although Li Ren has been back to the capital for more than half a year, he is a man after all, and the number of times he goes to the street is also limited, so they really don't know where to buy good things. Fortunately, Xiao Sheng had prepared the route in advance, and everyone was led by him, and the shops went from shop to house.
The first family to go is called the Treasure Pavilion, which is to buy hairpin ring jewelry, there are two floors, the first floor is the finished product, and the second floor is custom-made. Most of the girls with status and status do not want their jewelry to be the same as others. If you have the right look, the store will make it. and then make your own mark, which is sought after by many young ladies. It's just that Li Qin didn't feel that he had anything to do, and he didn't look good for a while, so he only walked around the first floor.
After shopping for a while and buying suitable jewelry, a few people walked to the next place where rouge was sold. As everyone knows, as soon as they went out, a yellow corner of their clothes emerged from the top of the stairs.
"Bad luck!"
"Why should the county lord be angry with them?" The palace maid wearing a light green dress next to her saw that the county lord of Shunning was pale, and hurriedly persuaded her, "The county lord is difficult to come out of once, didn't you say that the kind of rouge you used last time was very good?" β
The county lord of Shunning nodded, "Okay, just pick a few things for Zheng Jieyu in a while, she also said last time that the rouge there is better than the one in the palace, and you must help her bring it when she comes out again." β
The palace maid immediately smiled and continued: "Zheng Jieyu and the county lord have a deep sisterhood, they think about the county lord when they have any good things, and the county lord also thinks about Jieyu in everything." β
"My cousin and I had a hard time in the palace. Fortunately, I have the care of the Queen Mother, and my cousin has the favor of the Holy One. Otherwise, our sistersβ" said the Lord of Shunning's voice.
"It's all because the slave maid is not good, but I mentioned this matter-" The green-clothed palace maid immediately admitted her mistake, but it was the county lord of Shunning who supported her body to go down.
"It's okay, it's because I feel a little nostalgic for my life. But now outside the palace, it's nothing to talk about. Even after entering the palace, we all have to be careful. The Queen Mother is as kind to me as a mountain, and if some words are really said, I am afraid that it will be sad to reach the ears of her old man. β
"Slave and maid of the province. The green-clothed palace maid immediately admitted her mistake.
With this delay, Li Qin and his party were no longer seen when they went out.
Cai Diexuan and the Treasure Pavilion were only a few steps away, and the lord of Shunning let the carriage follow from a distance, and then took the palace maids to Cai Diexuan.
Li Qin has never had a special preference for rouge gouache. In the years in the north, she is also used to the wind and frost and bitter cold. However, after living well in the past two years, she will also buy some creams to nourish her skin to apply, but she has never bought the scented, colored rouge and the various colors of gouache. First, it is a luxury for their lives, and secondly, it is also the things they do every day and the people they come into contact with, so there is really no need to clean themselves up so exquisitely. But now that I'm back in Beijing, if I still face the sky like this every day, I can't help but feel disrespectful, and I can't go on the stage. With the experience of his previous life, Li Qin was not restrained, and went straight to the best counter.
Since his rebirth, Li Qin has cherished his body more than anyone else, and he will not despise his body. Good rouge gouache is not more, but fine. She had a little calculation in her own mind. If it is rouge for two taels of silver, it can be used for at least 100 days if it is evenly mixed once a day, so that it only costs 20 wen a day. In addition, gouache, lip grease, balm, etc., the best things are used in a day, but they use fifty wen. In this way, it is only 1,500 wen a month, which is less than two taels, which is really not valuable for the monthly silver of ten taels of silver per month for the eldest lady of the big family. Moreover, if you can maintain your youth and beauty with 1,500 wen a month, then the investment is worth it. On the other hand, even if you buy an ordinary price, you can buy the same today and the same tomorrow, and in the end, the price is not necessarily less than what you spend today. In addition, the more expensive the rouge gouache, the better the things inside, the less toxic things such as cinnabar and arsenic, and the less damage to the skin, so let Li Qin choose, she did not hesitate to choose expensive and refined.
"The girl's eye is really good, this is the most signature rouge gouache set in our store, called 'Drunken Red Face - Human Face Peach Blossom', which is the most popular among unmarried girls. But girl, if you buy a single box of rouge, it will be one or two or eight dollars, and if you buy our complete set, including rouge, gouache, cleansing milk, facial lotion, and hand balm, it will be a total of eight or eight dollars, which will save more than five dollars than buying alone. And also gave us a beautiful set of boxes and a palm-sized glass mirror. This glass mirror was transported from the sea, and it was much clearer than the bronze mirror, and it cost about one or two silver to buy it outside. As he spoke, he opened a box carved from peachwood, and sure enough, there was a glass mirror with a white porcelain painting of a beautiful woman as the base, which was small, and it was really only the size of a palm.
"It's exquisite. The glass mirror Li Qin had seen before was at least about the same size as the bronze mirror placed on the dresser, but it was the first time he saw such a small and chic, and he couldn't put it down.
