Chapter 383: Makeup
Life has been much better, and over the years, my daughter has often told me to pay attention to my eyes, just to save lamp oil, regardless of the quality of my eyes, but my children's eyes can't be ignored.
When the whole family was about to enter the main hall for a twilight meal, Liu asked her husband and son to light the lamp.
The house is a big house at the feet of the Son of Heaven, or the empress's royal gift, and it can't be as economical as when he was in the countryside, Liu is also a person who knows how to be flexible, the lights in the main hall are lit, and the porch outside the hall and the left and right wings are also hung with two lanterns each, although the courtyard is not as bright as day, but there is also a dim dim light lighting, this lantern is still in the house, and it is used to add some lamp oil to the lantern.
A person's habits are gradually and imperceptibly changed with the change of the living environment.
At this time, the sky was already darker and sunk, and there was still the last trace of the sun left in the western sky.
Liu Chenxing was in the brightly lit main hall, looking at the dazzling rituals on the main table in the north, and finally knew why Grandma Liu was a little worried, this ceremony was indeed not good.
Especially this makeup, it's useless at all, it's just a waste!
Liu Chenxing was used to being casual at home, sitting cross-legged on the ground without a mat in a white coarse cloth home clothes, with his back to the door of the main hall, Chang'an, who was supporting the main seat with one hand, dragging his cheeks, and directly closing the two boxes in the lower part of the makeup with the other hand.
It's not that I'm not a little uninterested at first glance, and then there is that long exclamation, and the meaning is self-evident.
The Liu family is accustomed to a neat table meal as a family, Liu Qingshan put the single cases on the left and right sides of the main hall, one by one, in the middle, first heard Liu Chenxing sigh when he looked at the festival, and when he turned around, he saw Liu Chenxing like this, he took a few steps to the main seat, and sat down at the left end of the long case without much image, that is, exaggeratedly shouted: "Won't it?" You don't like it!? There's no little lady who doesn't like makeup! Are you a woman? ”
As he spoke, he rubbed his chin with his hand, and said with a puzzled face: "But no, you are more stinky and beautiful than anyone else, and you flaunt yourself as a smart beautiful lady in ice and snow all day long." ”
Speaking of this, Liu Qingshan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly brought a big black face and big eyes to Liu Chenxing, with an expression that I know you best, and said: "Brother knows, you must like it again, and you want to sell it for money, and in the end, you still sell it for money to occupy the top, so you sighed." ”
After analyzing Liu Chenxing's motive for sighing, Liu Qingshan sat back again, stretched out his legs in the direction of the door of the main hall, rested his right hand on the long case, looked at Liu Chenxing and said with a smile: "Ah Xing, you have to go to the palace every day on a business trip, and after four hours of business trips, you have to follow Jiang Gong to learn calligraphy, there is no time to sell this makeup, but my brother is just idle and idle, Ming'er will help you take it to the West Market and sell it at a good price!" Said and smiled, "But half of the running fee still has to be paid, and it will also make your brother have a better month." ”
It is said that women change their faces quickly, and men are not far behind, Liu Qingshan said that in the end, he was complaining, and he insisted on paying back the money to Liu Chenxing when he only got the dividend yesterday, and insisted on giving Liu this month's living expenses, and he looked like a rich man.
Liu Chenxing was too lazy to watch his brother's exaggerated theatrical performance, but his eyes rolled, and his face swept away the dullness just now.
To say that the two are brother and sister who grew up together, Liu Qingshan knew that there was a drama in the resale of makeup as soon as he saw Liu Chenxing's appearance, he immediately turned his worries into joy, and was about to speak, his head suddenly hurt, and when he looked up, he saw his own Aye's angry face, and wanted to give himself another chestnut, Liu Qingshan had flexible hands and feet, and he was also trained when he was a child, so he quickly held his head with both hands, and jumped behind the main case, and complained: "Aya, why are you beating me again?" ”
The son had already run away, and Liu Qianli had no choice but to put down his hands that were raised in the air, and said, "If you don't hit you, who will you fight!?" Is there a brother like you? Even my sister's makeup wants to cheat! ”
Liu Shi just put the food on the table one by one, and also listened to the children's conversation clearly, originally muttered in his heart that Wei Wangfu gave his daughter a dowry, and there were all kinds of makeup in it, when the mother came from a girl's time, she was somewhat suspicious of this, and now she looks at her daughter's attitude towards the makeup, and she is more at ease. I think my daughter can take this makeup, after all, my daughter is also a fifteen-year-old lady, and she should have a makeup dowry of her own.
So Liu Shi turned around and answered: "This makeup dowry can't be sold, and if it is sold, it will have to be made again." ”
Hearing A-Niang say this, Liu Chenxing turned sideways, looked at Liu's and said, "A-Niang, why do you want to make another one?" When he said that, he saw that Liu looked like he was only about thirty years old, much younger than his actual age, and full of the charm of a mature woman, so he smiled immediately and said, "Yes, don't sell it!" My aunt is so good-looking, she must look better when she dresses up, and the makeup is for her mother, and there is also a copper mirror inlaid in it, I just took a photo, and it is indeed clearer than the clear water. ”
This is the makeup tamp that was named to the daughter, but the daughter didn't think about it yet.
She really doesn't know whether to worry about her daughter, or worry about her daughter, she is fifteen years old, and she can get married early in the countryside, why is she not aware of a little lady at all?
Liu shook his head, walked over to Liu Chenxing and knelt down, and then opened the mirror on the upper part of the makeup.
Although it is a brass mirror, the smooth polishing of the mirror can be seen, and the main hall is lit with a brilliant oil lamp, which clearly illuminates the appearance of their mother and daughter.
Looking at her daughter's face in the mirror, her eyebrows are picturesque and beautiful, but there is a trace of heroism that naturally reveals, which makes her daughter different from other little ladies.
This is the little daughter she tries her best to care for, and now she has grown into a girl who hires Ting, Fanghua fifteen.
Liu's gaze became softer and softer, and there was tenderness, relief, and pride in his beautiful eyes...... A lot of emotions are only for her little daughter, and then she looked at her daughter in the mirror and said: "A-Niang has long passed the age of dressing up, what is this makeup for A-Niang, of course, it is for my fifteen-year-old daughter." As he spoke, he glanced at her husband on the side, "Since you passed your fifteenth birthday on the way to Beijing, I plan to ask you Aya to make a makeup dowry for you, and then buy some makeup headdresses and rouge when you get to Chang'an." ”
In response to his wife's words, Liu Qianli nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, A-Niang muttered to me many times on the way, saying that A-Xing has grown up and is the age of beauty-loving, so I should prepare a makeup dowry for you!" ”
