Chapter 55: Rouge

"No, what are you wasting this money for, didn't we bring steamed buns? It's good to eat steamed buns when you're hungry. "Xu Lan is in pain with money, this big bag will cost more than a dozen yuan, which can buy more than a pound of white noodles.

"Mother, it's just a dozen yuan, we don't lack this money, brother, sit down." Guo Xiaoxi beckoned her brother to sit down.

The guy over there quickly brought a pot of tea and a large bag over, "Guest officer, please use it slowly." ”

Xu Lan saw that the big buns were coming up, and she definitely couldn't retreat, so she had to sit down, "Little fox, it's not that my mother said anything, it's just that our family has some silver now, but this also has to save flowers, if you want to eat the big buns, your mother will make it for you later." ”

She reached out and took a bun and whispered, "Mother, my basket of mushrooms has been sold, and we now have silver, just to eat a big basket of meat, and I haven't eaten meat for a few days. He took a big bite of the bun.

Guo Quan didn't dare to touch the bun when he sat down, and when he smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help but reach out and pick up the bun and eat it.

Xu Lan was stunned, "Sold?" ”

"Yes, it was sold." Guo Xiaoli took a bun and stuffed it into her hand, "Mother, you eat, this big bag is really delicious." He poured himself a cup of tea.

At this time, the big bags are real, but they taste a little choking, she didn't mention how much silver she sold, there are many people on the street, and the wealth is not exposed.

Xu Lan didn't ask, thinking that she didn't sell much silver, so she didn't mention it to them, but the bun was ordered, and the three of them quickly divided the big bag in a cage.

Guo Xiaoli only remembered to ask at this time, "Mother, you have been shopping here for more than an hour, why did you buy two things?" ”

This hoe has just been bought, how to say that there are three people in the family, and they should all buy three, she looked at them puzzled.

Guo Quan hiccuped a little when he ate, "My mother was reluctant to spend it when she heard that this hoe cost fifty yuan a handful, so I bought one, and we went to several stores to ask, all at this price." ”

Xu Lan was afraid of being poor before, and she can't change her mentality now, "This Tian Niang can do it slowly, you don't need to buy so much, and the money saved will buy a few good fabrics for your sisters and brothers." ”

"......" Guo Xiaoxi was speechless, no wonder it took more than an hour to buy a hoe and a sickle, this time they really have to cherish time, they still have a lot of things to buy.

"Mother, have you eaten enough? When you're full, let's go. She was too lazy to tell her mother that they had money now and that they didn't need to be so economical.

Go directly to buy something practical, over time, her mother will always get used to it, Xu Lan nodded, "My mother is full." Guo Quan also agreed.

"Then let's go." Guo Xiaoxi took out a copper plate from his pocket and put it on the table, stood up and walked outside.

The guy in the tea stall shouted loudly, "The guest officer walks slowly." ”

Guo Xiaoxi asked Guo Quan in a low voice which shop was where he bought hoes before, she saw that the hoe he was holding in his hand was sharp, the blacksmith's job was not bad, just buy two more.

After walking this, Xu Lan realized why she had gone to the place where she bought a hoe before, "Little fox? Is there anything else you need to add to your home? ”

"Master, buy two more hoes and sickles."

"Is that you?" The blacksmith put down his work and walked out, "When I was just now, I persuaded to buy two more hoes, we are also out of kindness, who will only have one hoe at home." ”

Xu Lan opened her mouth to say something, but Guo Xiaoli grabbed the lead, "What the master said is, mother, we have a hard time here, these inconvenient samples to buy, we have to buy them all while it is convenient now." ”

"What the little girl said is, I'm going to give you a strike." The master blacksmith turned and went to the back.

Probably thinking that what she said made sense, Xu Lan waited on the side in a loud voice, without saying anything more, Guo Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief, and when he turned his head sideways, he was attracted by the Min Xin Pavilion opposite.

It was a shop where they bought rouge gouache, and they could smell the fragrance coming from it while they stood here, and an idea popped into her mind that she could make her own rouge gouache to sell.

Guo Xiaoli, who has never thought about what she wants to do to make a living, has an idea at this moment, she has made simple lipsticks by herself before, just to have fun.

It's not difficult to do this, pick the petals and crush it finely and then filter the slag, then dry the juice, and drip a drop of osmanthus oil, but this filtration was more troublesome in ancient times.

In this world, who makes the best money, there is no doubt that it is a woman, the more I think about it, the more feasible I feel, "Mother, brother, you wait here, I will go to the Minxin Pavilion opposite to see the rouge, and I will come back later." ”

After saying that, she lifted the hem of her skirt and walked over there, "Hey! Looking at her back, Xu Lan said with slight annoyance, "How can this girl run around!" ”

Guo Quan scratched the back of his head in confusion, "Mother, Sister may have been attracted by the fragrance on the other side, what is that?" "Smelling the fragrance of osmanthus and the fragrance of gardenia, mixed together strangely.

It was normal for the little girl's family to be attracted by rouge, and she didn't run far away, Xu Lan sighed helplessly, "That's rouge." ”

Guo Xiaoci walked straight into this Minxin Pavilion, and the guys inside seemed to have not noticed her, surrounding those richly dressed people, with a courteous smile on their faces.

This is the fulfillment of her, and she just came in to see what the rouge gouache was like, and there was a row of rouge on the counter, and the bright colors attracted people's attention.

The air was filled with a strong fragrance, Guo Xiaoxi observed carefully, and inexplicably saw the feeling of inferiority, this level of rouge is like a product of nine pieces and nine on Taobao in later generations.

"This lady, the rouge of our Minxin Pavilion is definitely of the highest quality, and there is absolutely no better one in this Dongshui Town than our family."

Ah, is this already the best rouge in town? The workmanship of rouge gouache in this era is not very good, Guo Xiaoci has a bottom in her heart, she feels that she must be able to make rouge gouache!

Don't worry about not being able to sell it, she turned around and went out, and when she returned to her mother, it happened that the blacksmith master took the hoe that had been opened and handed it to Guo Quan.

Guo Xiaoci took it easily, her brother couldn't take it alone, Guo Quan looked at her empty-handed, "Sister, why didn't you buy some rouge back?" ”
