Chapter 87 is self-contained
Yuxiu hid beside Aunt Hong, hiding left and right. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Aunt Hong was dizzy by the two of them, grabbed them back one by one, and pressed them on the bench, "Sit down, I'll help you dye your nails, sit down quickly." If you don't do it well, the color will not look good, and the dyeing will be uneven, and you will have to complain again. ”
Aunt Hong helped Yingniang dye her nails, and pulled Yuxiu to help her dye them.
Yuxiu smiled and waved her hand and said no, she is now busy washing and cooking, chopping wood and planting vegetables all day, and it is also white dyeing.
Aunt Hong grabbed her hand, "If the color fades, the color will fade, the little girl's family should be dressed beautifully." When your mother is here, I like to dress you and Shu'er the most. ”
As soon as Aunt Hong mentioned her mother, Yuxiu paused, and stopped withdrawing her hand.
Every time I have spare money, I will buy beautiful flower ropes and beautiful flower cloths for the two of them.
But when buying flowers, my father actually bought three, two for them, and one for my mother secretly, she once hid outside the house to peek at my father's flower arrangement.
"Don't cry, good boy!
When Yuxiu heard Aunt Hong's words, she reached out and touched it, only to find that she was actually crying again.
Yingniang sat next to Yuxiu, leaned on her, reached out and took her hand, and pinched it as if comforting.
"It's windy, and the sand is blind. Yuxiu said with a smile, took out a handkerchief and wiped her face, and wiped her eyes.
Aunt Hong didn't speak again, helped her dye her nails carefully, and after dyeing, she pulled Yuxiu's hands and looked left and right, "Look at Xiuxiu's hands, they are soft to the touch, and the fingers are long, and they are blessed at first glance." ”
Yuxiu smiled and didn't speak again. Her hands, in her previous life, were also praised by others. At that time, Zhou Ming, who was known as Lord Chen, said that her hands were delicate, but in the end, she used these delicate hands to kill Yang Hua'er with her own hands.
Coming out of Jin Fuqing's house, Yudong seemed to be a little worried, he walked a few steps to look at Yuxiu, but found that his eldest sister was also in a daze.
He pretended to have something in his heart, couldn't hold back and wanted to say, coughed, but found that Yuxiu still hadn't heard.
He had no choice but to hold back his words, and the two of them continued to Jin Mantang and the other three of them walked around.
The three families, like Jin Fuqing, refused to accept it at first.
White sugar can be regarded as a valuable item, and half a catty of white sugar is considered a heavy gift even if it is a boxing gift back then.
Of course, Yudong and Yuxiu were sincere, and in the end, the three families accepted it, and they all took a bunch of melons, fruits and vegetables to them.
In the end, Yudong and Yuxiu went home with a basket full of vegetables and fruits.
Yuxiu finally came back to her senses and found that something was wrong with Yudong.
"Brother, what did Uncle Fuqing tell you?"
He said that he would have to pay taxes in the fall, and that he would have to pay some money if no one served. Yudong said a little sullenly, "I also have a lot of money." ”
It turned out that it was for this matter, Yuxiu looked at Yudong very worried, "Brother, it's okay, we still have silver." She leaned close to Yudong's ear, lowered her voice and said, "We still have two hundred taels of silver, which will be enough for a few years." If it's not enough, there are still satin clothes at home, and they won't wear them anyway, so they will be used as pawns. ”
Besides, you may not need a pawn.
At Jin Fuqing's house, when she saw Aunt Hong and Yingniang dyeing her nails, she thought of an idea.
The girl's family loves beauty, but the pollen sold now is not fine enough, and it is all white when rubbed. If the skin is not good, the complexion is yellow or dark, then rubbing a layer of white powder is like flour falling on black charcoal, it looks weird.
In her previous life, she was in Yunshui Building, so she naturally learned to dress up. Later, she became a concubine, and she didn't dare to be sloppy in dressing.
Large families will make their own rouge pollen.
Especially when I followed Tang Hezhang, I learned a lot of things. When she was given to Tang Hezhang by Jin Shangshu, Tang Hezhang was already in her seventies, although she had the reputation of being a merry old talent, she felt that following Tang Hezhang for a few years was the most comfortable.
After Tang Hezhang accepted her, he never went to Flower Street Willow Lane again, nor did he recruit any new people.
At that time, people said that Tang Hezhang, a merry and talented man, fell under Yun Xiangjun's pomegranate skirt, collected his heart at home, and enjoyed the fun of beauty wholeheartedly.
In fact, Tang Hezhang was not keen on the bed, and after taking her into the house, he didn't touch her, but just talked and chatted with her in his spare time, and instructed her to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The most interesting thing is that in the years she followed Tang Hezhang, she found that Tang Hezhang was not keen on political affairs, and did not delve into the subset of scriptures and history, but went through ancient books and solitary books, collected ancient recipes and practices in the Western Regions, and pulled her to make rouge pollen and make incense powder.
In those years, everywhere Yun Xiangjun went out, the pollen sachets he used were all things that everyone paid attention to.
With the memories of her previous life, in the next ten years, she knows everything that the daughters of the noblewomen like.
In Yunchang Town, embroidery and silk may not be sold, but rouge gouache is something that women like. If you can let the ladies of the county town use their own rouge gouache, are you afraid that you won't be able to make money?
She remembers a few recipes for rouge pollen that were very good and easy to make. However, the biggest problem is that the high-grade rouge she made in her previous life was made of rose petals from the Western Regions.
In the back garden of the Tang Mansion, all kinds of flowers and plants are planted, even if it is a rare thing like roses in the Western Regions, there are more than a dozen plants.
The petals of this rose are thick and red, and the rouge made is extraordinarily showy.
At the time, she had tried to make it with other canna petals, and the color was a little worse.
But in Dongping Village, there is no rare delicate flower like roses at this time.
I don't know if it's okay to change to other flowers? There is also a concoction powder, she still has to buy some spices, and I don't know if Linshui Town can buy it.
She was a little uncertain in her heart, afraid that she would make Yu Dongbai happy by saying it, so she might as well not tell him first. When I go back, I try to make a few boxes in my free time, take them out and sell them, and if the response is good, then I can make more.
Yudong looked at Yuxiu talking and was distracted again, and heard that there was still silver at home, so he felt at ease. Anyway, it's useless to be anxious now, so it's better to plant the land quickly and grow grains, vegetables and fruits, and you won't have to worry. He thought about it, and squatted down to ponder the matter of farming.
Two days later, Jin Mantang helped plow the two acres of fields at the foot of Dongshan, and also helped pull an oxcart of grass and wood ash to fertilize the fields.
Yudong and Yuxiu didn't say anything about paying for their salaries, but just brought a basket of snacks and sent them over. These snacks were carefully made by Yuxiu herself, and Jin Mantang's family couldn't stop praising them for being delicious.
To plant rice, you have to raise seedlings, and Yudong and Yuxiu have taken back this field now, of course, there are no seedlings. Fortunately, Jin Fuqing and Jin Mantang both said that there were a lot of seedlings left and asked them to plant.
In the last few days, God has helped, and it has rained a few heavily, but there is no shortage of water in the fields.
Early this morning, Yudong took a small bench and planned to plant seedlings.
