Chapter 647: Tell a Joke

"Light a benzoin." Gu Ming commanded.

Lilac hurriedly went out and brought in a piece of benzoin, lit it, and put it in the incense burner placed on the small table in the corner. The curling white smoke rises, bringing with it a slightly spicy aromatic smell.

When the fragrance diffused in the small private room, Gu Ming sat down opposite the Eighth Prince and took his hand.

Baozi and several others were taken aback, this action of Fourteen Niang is really not gentle...... What if the eighth prince, who came to the store inexplicably, wake up?

Fortunately, the effect of benzoin was good, and the eighth prince still slept soundly.

"Don't you use incense, why is the effect so good?" Seeing that the Eighth Prince would not wake up, Baozi became a little bolder, leaned over and asked curiously.

"Of course they use incense, but they don't use benzoin." Although benzoin is very effective, the taste is slightly spicy, how can the nobles like it? "They use old sandalwood."

"I see." Baozi nodded, and became curious again, "Fourteen Niang, how do you understand it so well, you even know this?" ”

Gu Ming was stunned, what did she say? Could it be that it is because after sealing the edict in his previous life, he entered the palace several times, so he saw it?

Of course not.

Fortunately, Lilac helped Gu Ming out of the siege.

"Speak quietly...... It's best not to speak, although incense is used, it doesn't mean that he won't wake up. Lilac whispered to stop Baozi's curious baby-like behavior, and instead stared at the Eighth Prince with some concern.

"Don't keep an eye on him, people will feel it. If you keep staring at him like this, it will prompt him to wake up early. Gu Ming whispered to Ding Xiang.

Ding Xiang quickly removed her eyes and carefully watched the movements of Gu Ming's hands.

The man in front of him was not only a man, but also the eighth prince, and the rest of the people in the store did not dare to do anything to his hands at all.

Gu Ming simply got started on her own. Anyway, those girls were taught by her, they know, she understands.

It's just that her ability to draw is not as high as these specially picked girls, so there is no way to draw such a fine painting.

But the steps are complete.

The first is to wash your nails. Originally, this action was extremely gentle, but now because he was afraid that the action would wake him up if it was a little more intense, Gu Ming's action was even gentle. She carefully scrubbed his fingers one by one with the clean, soft strips of muslin she had prepared in the store.

In fact, there is no need to wash it too much, the nails of the eighth prince are originally extremely well maintained.

Then she lit the small stove under the table, and moved the small porcelain bottle with the white wax to the small copper block with the fire underneath. In a few moments, the ash was completely melted, and she turned the fire to a minimum, as long as it kept the heat to a minimum.

Then, she took out a small, clean brush, carefully dipped a little clear wax, and brushed it gently on his nails.

Soon, all ten nails were coated all over, and the wax that had been applied to them also cooled down and solidified at a very fast speed.

Gu Ming took out a small and delicate frustration knife again, and carefully filed off the thin layer of wax skin on the nails.

This step is very important, the nails need to be protected by wax oil, but the wax oil should not be too thick, so that the flowers painted on it will fall off.

After removing all the wax skin, Gu Ming repeated this step again.

This step is to be repeated three times. Regarding this point, Gu Ming has also done a lot of research, and only three times can achieve the best effect, and it is not enough to do it less once. And if you do more, then there is no need.

The three layers of wax skin have all been filed, and there is already a very thin protective layer of wax oil on the fingernails of the eighth prince, which cannot be picked off, but when you rub it with your fingers, you can clearly feel the oil on it.

Then it's time to lay the foundation, and after the foundation is finished, it's time to draw the flowers.

Gu Ming is not bad at painting, but she is not good at such delicate things. After a while, she decided to give up the paintings in the album that were too thin to be described...... Now the female teacher with the best painter in the three stores, she can draw the "four beauties" on her fingernails! Although the territory is small, the people drawn are full of eyebrows and eyes, delicate and beautiful, and graceful like real people.

With such a divine skill, Gu Ming has never tried to challenge it.

She decided to draw the simplest pattern, hundreds of times simpler than the simplest in the album.

"You're a man, how can a man draw flowers on his fingernails?" Gu Ming smiled and said to the Eighth Emperor who was still sleeping, and then put the priming wax back and took out another small porcelain bottle.

What is in it is scented paint. There are only things in it that she and Lilac will match, which is the core secret.

There aren't many scents in it, just a few common floral scents with strong scents. But there are a lot of colors, but Rao is like this, in the actual use process, I often feel that the color is not enough.

That's why Muxiang is trying to configure more colors and more fragrances.

The ordinary wax block is white, but after it melts, it becomes transparent again, and this time, what Gu Ming needs is white.

She mixed the silver paint into the transparent wax, carefully mixed it, and then painted it for the Eighth Prince.

She didn't know how to draw any complicated patterns, so she drew the simplest of flowers, a five-petal peach blossom, white.

The silver color is pale and diluted in a clear wax before being applied to the nails...... Gu Ming was holding a lamp to see where he was drawing. Otherwise, as soon as you put away the pen, you won't be able to see it.

The Eighth Prince slept very soundly this night. He stretched, yawned heavily, and woke up.

But as soon as he opened his eyes, he felt abnormal, who was such a big face in front of him? Round eyes, round face......

"Childe, are you awake? The little one is called Baozi, and she is the female teacher of this shop......" As soon as Baozi saw him open his eyes, he immediately said to the Eighth Prince with a smile.

Originally, she was a little afraid of him, but after seeing him sleeping there, at the mercy of Fourteen Niang, she didn't react at all...... She suddenly felt that the Eighth Prince was also the same person as her.

The same to eat and sleep, the same to be happy and the same to be angry......

"Buns? Oh, how did I fall asleep? The Eighth Prince originally wanted to stretch his waist, but now that there was someone in front of him, he held back and asked, "Didn't you say you couldn't draw?" Which of the other female teachers in your shop is free, call me over and help me draw......"

But before he could finish his words, he got stuck. Because the little girl in front of him, who looked round all over, was there covering her mouth and laughing, as if he were telling some kind of joke.
