Chapter 367: Rouge

Han Mo passed by the rouge shop, looked up, and saw that the words "Red Moon Rouge Fang" were written on it, and the name was full of fat powder, and it was really not suitable for men to enter.

Han Mo was hesitating whether to go in and say hello to Xiao Lingzhi, but he heard Xiao Jun's voice already shouting, "Hey, Young Master Han, why are you here?" Are you going to sell rouge too? ”

"I ...... I just happened to be passing through! Han Mo broke out in a cold sweat, what did he want to buy rouge for? Seeing Xiao Jun standing in front of the door, he looked at himself with a smile, and beckoned to himself: "Young Master Han, our young lady is here, can you come in?" ”

Han Mo hesitated, and finally walked into the rouge shop, as soon as he entered, he immediately smelled the smell of rouge gouache, and there were several ladies and wives in the shop who were buying rouge, and the guys in the shop were explaining to them, and Xiao Lingzhi was standing on the east side of the counter, holding a box of rouge, placed in front of the crystal pink little nose, as if smelling the fragrance of rouge.

Han Mo entered the store, looked at Xiao Lingzhi, and saw that she was lightly dressed, elegant and quiet, and her slender figure was in this shop, and immediately compared the ladies and ladies to the ladies and ladies, the appearance of those women was just more in line with Xiao Lingzhi's cold and beautiful beauty, and her casual movements all looked elegant and calm, and her temperament was like an orchid.

Seeing a boy in linen clothes come in, a few noble ladies wanted to scold Han Mo to quit, but when they saw Han Mo's delicate and handsome face, they swallowed the scolding into their stomachs, seemingly unintentionally, but secretly looked at this handsome young man, and even the noble lady who was in her bones was already secretly sending Qiu Bo to Han Mo, and the watery eyes were seducing Han Mo.

When Han Mo was doing big things, he had always been calm and calm, he had also seen the world, but at this time, when he walked into this women's store, several coquettish women threw autumn waves here, Han Mo suddenly felt a little hot on his face, it seems that in terms of women, he is still too pure, pure as a blank piece of paper, even if he has been in love with Yan Xueji, but he feels that his heart is still very pure. (Note: Just like the author who wrote this book!!) )

He walked slowly to Xiao Lingzhi's side, and said to the guy who was looking at him with a strange gaze at the counter, "Is there any rouge made of Su Fangmu?" Take a pack and show me! ”

The guy was stunned, but Han Mo's words looked like an expert, and he replied, "Do you want rouge made of Su Fangmu?" That kind of rouge doesn't taste good, and there is very little inventory. ”

"That's it, take it and see!" Han Mo said.

After speaking, Han Mo turned his head to look at Xiao Lingzhi, who was looking at him in surprise, and said with a smile: "Strategist, what a coincidence, you also buy rouge here?" Where don't we meet in life, you and I are really fateful. ”

Xiao Lingzhi looked at Han Mo strangely, suddenly turned her head away, and forced herself to laugh in front of Han Mo.

"Laugh if you want!" Han Mo laughed and said, "Why hold back, it will hurt your body." ”

"You?" Xiao Lingzhi turned her head, glared at Han Mo fiercely, and said, "A big man's family, running to the rouge shop, isn't he afraid of gossip?" ”

Han Mo smiled and said, "Gossip? This is strange, I saw you inside, there are acquaintances here, come in and say hello loudly, this is a polite thing, what is the gossip? ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Lingzhi's willow eyebrows were slightly raised, her pretty face was a little red, and she looked at a few noble ladies not far away who were whispering, and blamed: "What do I have to do with you, you ...... What do you want to say hello! ”

Han Mo sighed and said softly: "Okay, okay, that's my mistake, I'll come in and buy a pack of rouge, then it's okay, right?" ”

"What kind of rouge do men use?" Xiao Lingzhi glared at him: "I'm talking nonsense again." ”

Han Mo smiled: "Men don't need rouge, women do." So, isn't it normal for a man to buy rouge and give it to a woman? ”

Xiao Lingzhi frowned slightly, then smiled coldly, and said softly: "Give it to her?" It seems that you are really amorous. ”

"She?" Han Mo was stunned, he said that he bought rouge and gave it away, which was also casually said, but he didn't expect Xiao Lingzhi to ask like this, and soon understood that the "she" in Xiao Lingzhi's mouth was Yan Xueji, who was pseudonym Mei Niang.

"You...... Jealous? Han Mo laughed softly.

Xiao Lingzhi's face turned cold, and she said coldly: "You...... You are presumptuous! ”

Han Mo was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xiao Lingzhi to have such a big reaction, shrugged his shoulders, and said softly: "When I didn't say it." ”

At this time, the guy had already taken a packet of rouge, Han Mo opened it and looked at it, and sniffed it gently, the fragrance of this packet of rouge was very light, if you didn't smell it carefully, it would almost be unpleasant.

"Who can see the mirror, hold the red makeup!" Han Mo groaned in a low voice: "This is the real good rouge!" ”

When the guy saw that a man seemed to be in the same way as rouge, he couldn't help but wonder: "Guest officer, you also know rouge?" ”

"It's just a fur!" Han Mo said with a smile.

The guy touched his nose and asked with a smile, "Then let me ask you, do you know the origin of this rouge?" ”

Xiao Lingzhi said lightly on the side: "It's just that I don't know how to pretend to understand, man, you don't care about him!" ”

Han Mo smiled: "Military advisor, you are wrong, if you want to talk about this rouge, I really know a little bit about it, I said that it is just a fur, but I am just modest, you really only understand fur." To tell you the truth, I know, I know more than you know! ”

The guy heard Han Mo call Xiao Lingzhi "military advisor", and he didn't understand the meaning, and thought that Xiao Lingzhi's name was this phonetic, but he just thought that this name was very weird, and when he saw Han Mo talking eloquently, he smiled and said, "Guest officer, then I don't believe it." This rouge gouache, the girl's family naturally knows more than the man. ”

Han Mo's spirit has been tense for a while, always on guard against the He family's conspiracy, at this time in this shop, he feels a little relaxed, just take advantage of this to relax, and said with a smile: "There are two theories about the origin of this rouge." ”

"Oh?" The guy came interested, "Which two?" ”

When Han Mo studied pharmacy in his previous life, it was a coincidence, he really had an understanding of rouge, and he still knew a lot about rouge, the most important cosmetics for ancient women, and he didn't expect that there was no coincidence today, but he wanted to show his talent in this area.

This first statement, rouge, was handed down from the Yin Shang period. During the Yin Shang period, there was a small princely kingdom called the Yan Kingdom...... Of course, it's not my current Great Yan Empire. The women of the Yan Kingdom used the leaf juice of the red and blue flowers to coagulate into fat, which was called 'Yan Fat' because it was produced in the Yan land, and later the name was changed to 'Rouge'. Han Mo smiled.

When he talked about the origin of Rouge, the ladies and ladies next to him all looked at him, and some people slowly approached to listen to his explanation.

In fact, although rouge is very popular in the Central Plains today, most women don't know where the rouge they often use comes from.

Xiao Jun was also standing beside Xiao Lingzhi at this time, and Jiao Qiao asked, "Is there another way to say it?" ”

This second argument is what many people know. It was the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Qian sent an envoy to the Western Regions and introduced it from the Huns. The Yanzhi Mountain of the Xiongnu produced such rouge, and the women of the Xiongnu used such rouge to decorate their faces. ”

The guy gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother, you really know, it's a knowledgeable person, but I'm out of sight." By the way, you just said that this rouge made of Su Fang wood is the best, so what do you say? ”

Next to this large group of girls, looking at themselves with various eyes, there is no lack of the kind of spring soft light that drips water, which makes Han Mo's face very hot, and his body is also a little uncomfortable, but seeing that Xiao Lingzhi is also looking at herself, in those beautiful eyes, it seems that she is also looking forward to continuing to talk, so she coughed and said, "Actually, there are two types of rouge." The first type is made from the sap of red and blue flowers. The petals of red and blue flowers have two pigments, red and blue...... Well, two colors, when the flowers bloom, pick the whole flower, put it in a stone bowl and hammer it repeatedly, and after taking out the yellow juice, the rest is rouge made of red and blue flowers. The other type is processed into small flower pieces, thin and light, which can be rubbed on the face. The former is called brocade rouge, and the latter is called goldenrod rouge. Pointing to the rouge in the shop, he said: "The rouge you have here is not the freshest rouge, this is all the paste formed after drying, but this is also the best way to preserve rouge." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all amazed, and those ladies chattered with each other, all of them admired Han Mo very much, even Xiao Lingzhi, and there was a rare smile, she really didn't expect that this young man would know so much about rouge, and he could be regarded as knowledgeable.

"In addition to red and blue flowers, such as Chongjiang, pomegranate, mountain flower, and Sufang wood, these are also raw materials for making rouge." Han Mo smiled and said to the guy: "You asked me why I said that Su Fangmu only made rouge is the best, in fact, this is not a generalization, it is just my personal opinion!" ”

At this time, the shopkeeper in the store also gathered, squinted, arched his hand and smiled: "The little brother is really well-informed." I take the liberty to ask, you said that this rouge made of Su Fang wood is the best, I don't know what to say? ”

Han Mo smiled and said: "Actually, the old gentleman should understand that although these raw materials can be made into rouge, due to the different raw materials, their effects are naturally different. Generally speaking, rouge can add a good complexion, make a woman's skin appear rosy, and create a pink and transparent complexion to ......! Speaking of this, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Lingzhi's smooth and jade-like and unusually delicate face, which attracted Xiao Lingzhi's white eyes, and her pretty face was slightly flushed.

The ladies and wives around couldn't help but touch their faces with their hands, and an old lady with wrinkled skin also gently stroked their skin, which made people feel cold.

When the shopkeeper heard him praise the benefits of rouge in public, which was very good for the rouge business, his eyes narrowed into a slit with joy, and said, "Young man, what you said is good, this rouge is a good thing." ”

"Good stuff indeed." Han Mo Zhengse said: "It can also correct the face shape and maintain the appearance...... When it comes to lubricating the skin, it is naturally a rouge made of red and blue flowers, which not only has a wonderful effect, but also has a fragrance like orchid, which is the best rouge from a certain point of view, but the price is also the most expensive. ”

The shopkeeper asked, "In that case, why does the little brother say that the rouge made of Su Fangmu is the best?" I have been running a rouge shop for more than 10 years, and I am also good at it. I've only heard that the rouge made from red and blue flowers is the best. As for Chongjiang, pomegranate, mountain flower and Sufang wood, although they can also be made into rouge, they still seem to be inferior to red and blue flowers. ”

"The shopkeeper, as I said, is just my personal opinion. These raw materials, the rouge made, the effect is not the same. Needless to say, when applied to the face, it can also be rosy and fragrant, but if the skin is not good, it often has a feeling of numbness. The taste of pomegranate is not good, and although the fragrance of mountain flowers is stronger than that of red and blue flowers, the effect of beauty is the worst. ”

Xiao Jun couldn't help but ask, "What about Su Fangmu?" ”

There was also a woman next to him who asked, "Yes, little boy, what does Su Fangmu say?" Han Mo was dressed in ordinary linen clothes, if he looked ordinary, or if he didn't have any talent, these women wouldn't look at it, but Han Mo not only looked good, but also talked eloquently, these women were suddenly quite admired, and there was even the spring heart of the prodigal woman, and this "little boy" was even more out of his mouth.

"Su Fangmu, the fragrance is insufficient, the rosy skin is not enough, and the price is the cheapest!" Han Mo said immediately.

Everyone was stunned, and the shopkeeper said strangely: "Since this is the case, then why do you say that the rouge made by Su Fangmu is the best!" ”

"It depends on whom." Han Mo looked at Xiao Lingzhi with a smile, pointed at Xiao Lingzhi and said, "This rouge made of Su Fangmu, if it is used on this girl's body, it will be the best rouge!" ”

Xiao Lingzhi bit her lip and said angrily: "What does it have to do with me? ”

Han Mo smiled and said: "This girl is naturally beautiful, her skin does not need rouge, it is also ruddy and delicate, there is no fragrance of rouge, and there is a more fragrant smell than rouge on her body...... So the other rouge doesn't have a big effect on this girl at all! ”

The ladies around suddenly understood: "It turns out that this handsome little brother has fallen in love with this girl." They saw that this little brother spoke a little lightly, and he seemed to be a veteran in the Fengyue Field, and there was a woman who had taken a fancy to Han Mo, so they were ready to turn around and let someone secretly bring Han Mo back and secretly cheat.

The private life of high-ranking officials and nobles is already very good, men sleep in the willows, and some bold ladies dare to steal men secretly.

When they saw that Han Mo was dressed in shabby clothes, they thought that he was just an ordinary boy, and he should be able to get his hands on it with a little silver.

However, Han Mo's words made these women look at Xiao Lingzhi's body, seeing Xiao Lingzhi's slender body, fair and smooth skin, and extremely beautiful appearance, and there was an unattainable cold and arrogant temperament all over her body, they were all immediately relieved, such a beauty, which man was naturally tempted when he saw it.

"Forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, but I don't know why this Su Fangmu Rouge is the best choice for this girl?" The shopkeeper asked curiously.

"Although Su Fangmu is not the best rouge, it is warm, can reconcile yin and yang, and drives away cold and cures cold ......!" Han Mo said leisurely: "This girl is naturally the most suitable ......!" ”

Everyone looked at each other, not understanding the meaning of Han Mo's words for a while.

Xiao Lingzhi was stunned at first, but how smart she was, she quickly realized the meaning of Han Mo's words, her willow eyebrows were raised, she was ashamed and annoyed, and she didn't care about the number of people around, so she unceremoniously stepped on Han Mo's feet, and said angrily: "You...... You bastard, you ...... You're not a good person! ”

Han Mo grinned and made a painful look.

Xiao Lingzhi was extremely embarrassed, didn't say a word, turned around and walked out of the rouge shop quickly, and Xiaojun hurriedly followed.

Han Mo's words, Xiao Lingzhi could understand it, and the meaning in it meant that Xiao Lingzhi was too cold and cold, so he had to use this Su Fangmu's rouge to cure it.

It turned out that Han Mo had been around for a long time, and Xiao Lingzhi listened to it with relish, but the final purpose was to tease herself, how not to make her ashamed.
