Chapter 268: Concubine! (c)
"Mr. Cai, it's been a day of traveling, you go and rest."
"Okay, Son."
"How's it going today?" Meng Yan asked Shen Cong that Jiao Hong's life and death were very important to Bai Suxin's case.
"Fortunately, the person is weaker, so he woke up again in the morning and evening and used some honey water." Shen Cong said.
"I'll see." Meng Yan walked to Jiao Hong's bed, reached out to take his pulse, lifted the quilt again, and examined the wound.
"The weather is still cold, the wound heals slowly, pay attention to control the room temperature, not too high, not too low, but also pay attention to the humidity and ventilation in the air!"
"Understood, Childe!"
"It depends on the situation, if the wound is not inflamed, you can eat some rice soup or chicken soup tomorrow, the chicken soup needs to be oiled, and his current stomach can't bear the greasy!" After the inspection, Meng Yan gently covered the quilt and commanded.
"Got it, Childe!"
"You've worked hard these days, you two people take turns to guard, don't be too tired." Meng Yan admonished.
"Childe, the injury on your thigh?"
"It's not in the way, it's already scabbed, but the scar is too ugly, just go back and get a mark removal cream to wipe it." Meng Yan said with a smile.
This day is tiring, and it is harder than the task in the previous life.
Back in the room, Meng Yan just took off his coat, ready to wash up, and then went to bed, the ancients did not have the habit of brushing their teeth before going to bed, but Meng Yan had this habit, and the people around him gradually got used to brushing their teeth before going to bed.
However, there was no toothpaste in the Ming Dynasty, and it was generally gargled with green salt. Some rub it with soft wicker branches.
The toothbrush is easy to make, but the toothpaste is not easy to get, so Meng Yan can only follow the local customs aggrievedly.
"Son, hot water is here."
"Then come in."
Maggie came in with a large copper basin filled with nearly a third of the hot water, steaming, apparently freshly cooked.
"Put the stool on it, I'll do it myself!"
"The slave waits for the son's feet." Meiji said with her head down.
"I don't need you to serve, get out!"
"Yes!"
Maggie lowered her head and turned to walk out the door.
"Come back." Meng Yan suddenly remembered something. Stopped Meek.
"What do you command?"
"Maggie. It's going to be the New Year, this is the first Spring Festival for you to come to my house, how do you have to make a new dress for the New Year, if you do it now. I'm afraid it's too late. Buy a new one. Go back to Shen Cong and get the money, you go to the street to buy it yourself, this goes up and down. It's all done inside and out! Meng Yan said.
"Thank you, Princess, is Mei Ji going alone?"
"You can go to Songhe Tower to find Miss Lin Yi and ask her to accompany you." Meng Yan thought for a moment and said.
"Got it."
It's been so many days, and this Uhak hasn't moved at all, is it because he has watched this charm too closely, which makes them have no chance to meet?
The main reason is that he is too busy in front of him, and Meiji is negligent here.
"Oh......"
The boots of the Ming Dynasty people are uncomfortable to wear, but there is no way, there are rules, you have to wear them.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were regulations on the clothing, shoes and hats of the common people, gentry and officials, and who wore what clothes could not be transgressed.
This made Meng Yan miss the combat boots of his previous life very much, they were lightweight, comfortable, warm and breathable, this kind of stiff, and cold boots were really not worn by people.
Three days ago.
A shop called "Made in Beauty" in Beijing has opened its account, and the store pΓΉ mainly deals in women's daily necessities, including close-fitting clothes, as well as various cosmetics, as well as their new products such as fragrant pancreas.
The opening of this small shop is very low-key, and there are not many customers on the first day.
There is also a sign hanging at the door that reads "Men are not allowed to enter"!
The next day, after many girls who liked to try new things went in, they all came out with red faces.
When I asked what I saw, I was ashamed to answer all of them, and I couldn't say it.
In this way, more people were attracted to come, and by the third day, it was almost full of young women.
On the mysterious second floor, a group of warblers and swallows are chirping.
"Ouch, I'm ashamed, can I wear such clothes?"
"That is, how much can this palm-sized piece of cloth cover?"
"Girl, you're wrong, this man likes to be secretive, half-hidden, you see......"
"Eldest sister, do you dare to wear it in front of your family?"
"What don't you dare, two husbands and wives, are there outsiders present, this is called erotic underwear, understand, you have to wear it for those men who understand sex......"
"Oh, Miss Dong, are you here too?"
"Mrs. Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you came out on such a cold day?"
"No, I heard that there is a special shop here, which is specially opened for our women's family, so I'll take a look, it's really special!"
ββ¦β¦β
"Miss, look at this store, there is still a saying at the door that men are not allowed to enter, it's really interesting, let's go in and have a look, okay?"
"Xiaohong, we came out to buy New Year's goods, and it was not easy for my father to return to Beijing to report on his work this time." Yu Xin said, the implication is that there is not much money left in his hand.
"Miss, just take a look, let's take a look, just don't buy it!" Xiaohong is a master who loves to see the excitement, if you don't let her see the excitement, she is really itchy.
"Okay, then take a look and go." Yu Xin sighed slightly, there is really no way to take this girl.
"Fauber, you're waiting for us outside."
"Okay, Miss, be careful, there are many people and thieves!" Fauber reminded.
"Got it." Yu Xin agreed, and walked into the door of "Made in Beauty" with Xiaohong.
It is said to be a small shop, in fact, there is a lot of space inside, and the decoration is very elegant, the first floor is a cosmetics counter, divided into categories, in addition to the self-operated brand made by the beauty, there are many brands seen in the market.
But the self-operated brand products manufactured by Beauty occupy almost half of the country.
"Miss, come and see. Official fans from Hangzhou! Among the many foundations, Xiaohong recognized the official powder produced in Hangzhou at a glance.
It's from their hometown.
Hangzhou foundation is one of the best foundations, and it has always been selected as a tribute to the inner court, and the best quality is basically invisible to the people.
"Miss, this shop is so big, there are a lot of things sold, come and see, this is Liuzhou's charcoal ......"
"Xiaohong, we can't afford these." Yu Xin shook his head helplessly.
"I can't afford it, so take a look at it and don't care. Long insight! Xiaohong said with a pout.
For cosmetics. Girls are very attractive, and Yu Xin is no exception, but she is depressed, and the conditions at home do not allow it. So. I like it. But they rarely buy, and even if they do, they will only pick the cheap ones.
Everything here is priced at more than 100 yuan. Ordinary people are discouraged.
"Miss, what do you see?"
"Xiaohong, why do you think they all ran to the second floor one by one, and everyone came down with a red face, and everyone carried a paper bag?" Yu Xin is a good observing girl, although the hall on the first floor is lively, there are many people here, and there are indeed not many purchases, and after walking around on the first floor, they basically go to the second floor.
Others, after coming in, didn't look at the rouge gouache at all, and ran directly to the second floor.
"Miss, let's go to the second floor and have a look?" Little Red's eyes lit up suddenly.
"Don't go, it's important to buy New Year's goods, and you have to buy medicine for your father, Dad's phlegm is committed again!" Yu Xin hesitated.
"It's just a while, okay, Miss just needs to be able to go home for dinner in time for noon!" Xiaohong hugged Yu Xin's arm and pouted, she had been at home for several days, and she finally went to the street.
"Okay, okay, just go up and look at it for a while, and we'll leave as soon as we're done!" Yu Xin was soft-hearted and couldn't stand Xiaohong's abrasive little girl, so she had to nod and agree.
The staircase on the second floor of the "Made in Beauty" is designed as a spiral structure, which gives the impression of a slow rise, but does not feel abrupt.
"This, this is ......"
When Yu Xin and Xiaohong stood at the entrance of the second floor and saw the rows of cloth hanging on the shelves in front of them, their heads were messy.
"Little, miss, what are these things?" Xiaohong felt her cheeks burn all at once, although she had never seen these things, but as a woman's intuition, she knew what these strips of cloth and small pieces of cloth were for.
"Xiaohong, don't look at it, let's go down." Yu Xin was also a little dumbfounded, grabbed Xiaohong's hand, her palms were sweaty, and her voice was out of tune.
"Get out of the way!"
Yu Xin's master and servant hurriedly moved their feet and let the people behind them go inside.
Hulala, into a group of women, thick fat and glamorous, at a glance you know that it is not a serious woman.
"Girls, which one do you like, Mom will buy it for you!"
With a hula, the group of women scattered as if crazy, shuttling through the colorful cloth.
"Young girls, madam, the bra and underwear styles made by our store are the only ones in the capital, with a variety of styles, many colors, and high and low prices. No, our beauty is for men, the more beautiful we are, the more men like it, this man is all an animal in itself......"
"Some people say that this is not the same as pulling out candles and taking off clothes, I can only say to this kind of person, then he will live with the sow for a lifetime, and what are you looking for us women to do, anyway, it will be the same ......when you take off your clothes."
The words were a little vulgar, and many of the people present were from everyone's portal, including Yu Xin, who frowned a little and couldn't stand it.
However, this is not unreasonable, and it still sounds a little reasonable, not to mention that the woman does not always say these shameful and crude words.
She mainly talked about how to wear this new underwear and how to choose the right one for each person.
"Sisters, why do we women get out of shape after giving birth, and men always call us yellow-faced women......"
These novel expositions attracted the attention of many women, including Yu Xin's master and servant.
"Miss, I want to buy a bra to try?" Xiaohong blushed and said.
"Do you know how much those two pieces of cloth are the size of a palm?" Yu Xin asked.
"Three hundred wen!"
"Three hundred Wen, do you know how much rice and how much meat can be bought here?" Yu Xin said distressedly.
"But, miss, don't they all buy it?"
"Can we compare ourselves to those people?"
"This girl, we have opened for three days and have a big reward, and today is the last day, if you buy it, you will get a 20% discount?"
"Miss, if you get a twenty percent discount, three hundred wen, that is, you can give sixty wen less?" When Xiaohong heard this, she immediately became excited.
"Xiaohong, you're crazy, I'm sorry, we don't buy it, go back!" Yu Xin grabbed Xiaohong and was about to go downstairs.
"Miss Yu, wait!" At this time, a young woman with a graceful figure walked up to Yu Xin with a smile and bowed her head slightly.
"You are?" Yu Xin was a little strange, with her ability to never forget, if this woman knew herself, she must have seen it.
"My surname is Jiang and my name is Fluttershy, Miss Yu remembered?" Jiang Xiaodie smiled slightly and introduced herself.
Today's Jiang Xiaodie is completely different from two months ago, with a stable life, coupled with sufficient nutritional guarantees, she is raised with a round and jade body, no matter her face or posture, she is very different from the woman who has endured wind and frost every day on the rivers and lakes.
"Are you Brother Meng's subordinate?" Yu Xin remembered that she had seen Jiang Xiaodie, but she didn't expect such a big change.
"Yes."
"Fluttershy, why are you here?" Yu Xin was surprised.
"Miss Yu, this beauty manufacturing is actually one of my son-in-law's industries." Jiang Xiaodie explained with a slight smile.
"This, this store belongs to Brother Meng?" Under Yu Xin's stimulation, he also became stammering.
"Yes, it's just that Gongzi doesn't care about these trivial matters, I take care of this shop!" Jiang Xiaodie said, "Miss Yu, is it okay for us to talk inside, there are too many people here, it's too noisy, and it's inconvenient to talk." β
"Good, good!" Yu Xin stroked her chest and walked towards a small door with Jiang Xiaodie.
"This is our staff access and the third floor is the warehouse and office, please!" A small door enters, and a staircase winds its way up. (To be continued......)
