Chapter 189: A proper scumbag
When Princess Pingxi heard this, she got up and moved her body and said, "It's finished painting, I didn't expect it to take so long." ”
As she spoke, she walked to the desk with a gust of incense, leaned lightly, and carefully looked at the portrait.
As soon as she saw the portrait, the princess couldn't help but exhale softly, and there seemed to be brilliance in her eyes, and she was extremely satisfied with the portrait.
This afternoon Chen Siye was not in vain, the paintings are vivid, like real people, even the clothes are extremely detailed, except that they are not colorful, I can't find a trace of fault.
The princess said with joy in her eyes: "Chen Gongzi's painting skills are really superb, and I am extremely satisfied with this painting." ”
Chen Siye said modestly: "Niangniang won the award, but I am not good at coloring, which is also the fly in the ointment of this painting, Niangniang can then send someone to take this painting to the Pingle County Lord's Mansion and ask the Pingle County Lord to color this painting." ”
Jin Hongtai, who had been watching from the side, also said: "Brother Chen doesn't have to be modest, even if he is not colored, he is already the ultimate in the painting, I have looked at this painting from beginning to end, and it is very easy to see Brother Chen paint, but if I am asked to paint, I will definitely not be able to paint at all." ”
The princess also nodded in agreement and smiled: "And Chen Gongzi's painting has not been changed because of my identity." In the past, when I invited other painters, they were always afraid to write and didn't dare to paint me. ”
Chen Siye naturally understood the meaning of the princess's words, which was to say that the paintings of those painters were too conservative and did not draw her true body.
But this is not to blame those painters, after all, this is a princess, she doesn't dare to scribble at will, and if she is accidentally punished for this, she will be done with the game.
That is, Chen Siye, who didn't care about it at all and didn't think about it at all, used a realistic style to draw the princess's bumpy figure in its original form.
The princess's eyes were full of appreciation, and the more she looked at Chen Siye, the more she liked it, and suddenly said, "What does Gongzi Chen think of Hongyi?" ”
Suddenly hearing this question, Chen Siye had some doubts in his heart and asked what is this for? Is it to marry Jin Hongyi to him?
Chen Siye thought in his heart, this will Jin Hongyi take Qiu Ju to visit the palace, neither of them are here, he thought for a moment and then chose to say: "County Lord... The county lord is innocent, gentle and lovely, beautiful and beautiful, and very endearing. ”
"What if..."
Hearing these three words, Chen Siye's heart suddenly burst out, and he secretly thought to himself: Should you really marry Jin Hongyi to me? If this is the case, how can you refuse so that both parties lose face?
In fact, at this time, he retreated a little. There is a main task, and you have to take care of your future wife's emotions. Although he is happy to play ambiguously with others, if it rises to the level of talking about marriage, where does he put Le Xuan? Even now, he and Le Xuan haven't gotten a word yet. So speaking of which, Chen Siye is a proper scumbag.
Just when he was a little apprehensive, afraid that the princess would not know how to deal with similar words, Jin Hongyi and Qiu Ju suddenly appeared and interrupted the princess's words, "Queen Mother, but the painting is finished?" ”
The princess stopped talking, smiled at Chen Siye, and then looked at Jin Hongyi and said, "I just finished painting, Yi'er, you came just in time, come and see Chen Gongzi's painting skills." ”
Jin Hongyi was naturally amazed. Originally, she wanted Chen Siye to come to her portrait, but she didn't expect to be cut off by her own mother, but at this time, it is naturally impossible to paint again, so although Jin Hongyi was envious, she didn't say anything about the portrait.
On the side, Qiu Ju gave Chen Siye a make
With his eyes, Chen Siye suddenly understood, and said, "Niangniang, it's not too early to see the sky, we should go back too." ”
The princess didn't keep him either, and said, "That's fine." ”
Then he joked: "Letting Chen Gongzi paint for me for so long today has disrupted the original plan of you young people, Tai'er Yi'er doesn't want to blame me." Chen Gongzi has to come to the palace more often when he has nothing to do, so you young people should be closer and closer. ”
Chen Siye said yes, and secretly said in his heart that they were worthy of being two people, and the king of Pingxi spoke the same way, all of which were to make him close and close, but how to get close?
Then the Jin brothers and sisters sent Chen Siye and Qiu Ju out of the house together, Chen Siye naturally did not take the initiative to mention the portrait of Jin Hongyi, and he had been gossiping with Jin Hongtai, and Jin Hongyi was embarrassed to ask again.
The coachman who sent them at noon was still waiting at the gate of the palace, and the coachman waited for them very hard all afternoon, and he was also an honest man.
When he went back, although Qiu Ju also complained a few words, on the whole, Chen Siye did not make any mistakes today, and if God helped, even if the princess was present, the scene he and Jin Hongtai performed was not revealed. A few sweet words coaxed Qiu Ju to be happy, and she can be regarded as having survived this catastrophe safely.
After going back, Mingyuesu came to ask, but with Qiu Ju's cooperation, nothing went wrong, and he passed this level very smoothly, and while breathing a sigh of relief, Chen Siye couldn't help but think a little sadly, I'm afraid that I will say goodbye to the girls in the future, this is not so strict, if the relationship is confirmed, I am afraid that the door will not let go.
Moreover, Qiu Ju and Mingyue Su seem to be already a small group, could it be that they have been honest with each other and are ready to deepen the level of sisters?
But after thinking about it, this possibility should not be very large, if Qiu Ju knew about him and Ming Yuesu, it should be nothing, but if Ming Yuesu knew that he and Qiu Ju had a leg, then maybe what would happen, so this feeling of walking on the edge made him live a very exciting life every day.
After dinner, Chen Siye continued to study the formula of the toilet water, speaking of which, although it is late spring now, and the mint has grown, but the mosquitoes have not yet come out, even if the flower water is made, there is no way to test the effect, but according to his understanding, as long as alcohol and peppermint are the main ingredients, there should be no need to worry about the effect, so he finally decided to make the flower water.
Although the mint is cool and cool, it has no aroma, and at this time, it is generally used to repel mosquitoes with sachets, so if the flower water has no aroma, it is estimated that it is not easy to open up the market, so the flower water should also add some aroma.
He asked Qiu Ju that this mosquito repellent sachet contains a variety of Chinese herbs, mainly cloves, atractylodes and mint, etc., which are fragrant after being made into sachets, but the mosquito repellent effect is average.
Therefore, as long as the toilet water has an effect, it will not be unmarketable, but it needs to be neutralized with some spices. But he didn't want to transplant the existing sachet making method directly, so he listed all the plants he could think of with aroma and mosquito repellent effect on paper to see which one was more feasible.
In the past, Chen Siye once read an article in the circle of friends, the title was "These mosquito repellent plants are planted at home, which are better than mosquito coils", a proper title party, at that time he was curious to click on some of them, and after reading them, he also bought two of them, but then lazy cancer attacked, and the flowers died, so he continued to light mosquito coils to repel mosquitoes. But I didn't expect it to come in handy now.
In the article, it is said that lavender, rosemary, mosquito repellent and other six or seven plantings
All of them had mosquito repellent effects, but after so long, he only remembered these three plants, and he had bought two of them, lavender and rosemary.
In fact, he wanted to use lavender because of his strong aroma, which is very suitable for neutralizing the cool taste of mint, but he doesn't know if there is lavender here.
So Chen Siye found Su Lanzhu and wanted to ask her if she knew about lavender.
However, after describing the various characteristics of lavender to Su Lanzhu, she only shook her head and said that she had never seen this flower.
Su Lanzhu loves flowers and plants, and she treasures all kinds of flowers and plants, if she says no, then no, Chen Siye has to give up.
Among the remaining two options, Chen Siye, the mosquito repellent grass, only heard of its name, and didn't know what it looked like, so he had to give up, leaving only rosemary.
Rosemary happened to have a bush in the bamboo garden, although it was not as fragrant as lavender, but it was also fragrant, so he chose rosemary.
The next day, Chen Siye prepared to make perfume and toilet water, as long as the trial production was successful, and then take it to Le Xuan, the task should be completed.
Under Chen Siye's guidance, Xiangling and Miaozhu mashed the peach blossoms that they had collected yesterday and washed and dried, and then divided them into four equal parts.
A total of four times were distilled when the alcohol was distilled yesterday, so a total of four different concentrations of alcohol were obtained, and Chen Siye didn't know whether to use high or low concentrations, so he had to try all of them.
In fact, as long as the raw materials are prepared, the perfume production is still very simple, because the alcohol concentration is not high, so there is no need to add water, just mix the alcohol and mashed flowers thoroughly, and then filter out the residue.
It happened that there were four people in the bamboo garden, so each of them was given a porcelain vase to mix peach blossoms and different concentrations of alcohol.
Jingqing, this kid was still unwilling, and he was still angry at the fact that Chen Siye tricked him into licking the "Qiong Jelly Jade Liquid" yesterday and got drunk, but under Chen Siye's forced force to pull his ears, he could only give in.
So, listening to such a scene in the bamboo garden, the four people stood neatly in the courtyard, holding a porcelain vase, and kept shaking, how to look at this picture is magical.
It takes at least half an hour or so for the essential oil contained in the flower to fully blend with the alcohol, but among these people, except for Chen Siye, no one can shake it for half an hour.
After a while, Jing Qing began to shout that his wrist was sore, his arm was weak, and so on, Chen Siye had no choice but to take it and open the bow left and right, but it didn't take long for Xiangling and Miaozhu to hold on, Chen Siye had to take them all, holding two in one hand and shaking, as for the other three, they watched him shake like a monkey on the side.
But as he shook it, the porcelain vase also faintly emitted a long aroma that was slightly different from the ordinary peach blossom fragrance, which made Chen Siye couldn't help but be happy, and he shook it even harder.
"Chen Siye! Miss let me ask you about the perfume.... Poof.."
Xiao Tao, who came to him to ask about the progress of the perfume, as soon as he stepped into the Tingzhu Garden, he saw Chen Siye's two porcelain bottles in one hand, shaking the magical picture, and suddenly he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You... What are you doing, hahaha, it's fun for you to do this. In particular, there were three audience members sitting on a small bench watching his performance, which made this scene even more comical.
Chen Siye said helplessly: "Am I not making perfume?" Still laughing, don't come and help, the three of them can't shake. ”
