After sending Bai Shao away and returning to the house, Bai Qianning received a new issue of the newspaper sample.

The first episode of "Dream of Red Mansions" was published on it, she found the original book from the space warehouse, and in contrast, she found that the part of the newspaper was exactly the same as the original book, I have to say that Sun Qinian's memory is really amazing, but fortunately, this guy did not take Mr. Cao's work to his head, but noted the author of this book in the registration office: Cao Xueqin

After reading for a while, and roughly reading the advertisements posted by several merchants, Bai Qianning put down the newspaper in his hand and began to formulate a new cosmetic formula.

In this era, there is no concept of machine grinding, so things like pearl powder. The basic raw materials such as talcum powder are ground by hand, not to mention the time-consuming and laborious powder, and the powder is relatively rough, which also leads to the fact that many ladies and ladies can see the thick foundation at a glance after putting on makeup, and it will be stuck and peeled after only half an hour after applying makeup, which is completely like wearing a mask.

With Sun Qinian's help, whether it is pearl powder, talcum powder, or the grinding and refining of various precious medicinal materials, it has become labor-saving and efficient.

Now that Ye Tan is also pregnant, she naturally doesn't have anything to do outside, but this matter of developing cosmetics is quite easy and interesting.

Seeing that Bai Qianning was about to start tinkering with new things again, she refused to be idle, so she moved a stool and sat next to Bai Qianning to help.

Bai Qianning is also happy to let her follow these things, at least fart. With the stool stained, Ye Tan will be able to settle down a lot, so as not to be frightened when he flies up and down idlely.

"Ma'am, what are you doing now?" Ye Tan stared at the various colors of powder in Bai Qianning's hand and asked her.

Bai Qianning patiently pointed to the bottles and jars on the table and introduced them to her one by one: "These are powders made of sun-dried petals, this bottle is beeswax, and this bottle is castor oil, I want to make a new type of lipstick now, easy to carry, well, it is packed in this long small container, there is a mechanism here, push the lipstick up and it will come out, you can take it back when you don't use it, and then cover it with a lid." ”

"It's a fresh container." Ye Tan took the lipstick base in Bai Qianning's hand and played with it carefully, while asking, "This is also made by Sun Gongzi?" ”

"Sun Gongzi is busy with the newspaper at the moment, and he doesn't have time to do this, this is what I drew the drawings and asked Lin Dashan to do, he is a carpenter, and he is the best at making these exquisite carpentry gadgets."

"Oh!" Ye Tan nodded, put down the gadgets in his hand, took a jar of rose pollen in a white and condensing manner, and added beeswax and castor oil to it, as well as some other raw materials.

The white light condensation is prepared with rose-pink Gesang pollen, the delicate pollen exudes a faint fragrance, mixed with the aroma of honey oil is refreshing. Even Ye Tan, who was seriously happy, was much more comfortable smelling this aroma.

With Ye Tan's help, they made six lipsticks of different colors and fragrances at one time, and the various shades of dark red, rose red, and orange red were all complete.

After adjusting the consistency, Bai Qianning took a mold from the side, put the paste of different colors into the container, and asked Ye Tan to call a shadow guard, and flew to put the mold containing the paste on the roof.

The snow had almost melted the day before, except for the thick layer on the eaves.

Bai Qianning stood in the courtyard and tilted his head to the shadow guard and ordered: "Bury it tightly with snow, and take it down in an hour." ”

"Yes!" The shadow guard answered, and quickly followed Bai Qianning's instructions to hold the snow and cover the mold before flying down.

The maids and shadow guards in the courtyard didn't know what they were doing, and they all looked at each other curiously, in short, their wife was a fairy-like existence in their eyes, and the things she made must be very rare.

Bai Qianning watched the shadow guard fall to the ground, and saw everyone looking at it so curiously, so he asked Ye Tan, "Can you learn the method you just taught?" ”

"Pretty much. How? ”

"Now that you have learned, from today onwards, you will take the martial arts maids in the house to continue to make lipstick, the lipstick will be frozen and set, seeing that the snow on the eaves will melt in a few days, before Sun Gongzi develops the refrigerator, you will make more lipstick in the next few days, and I will let Lin Dashan bring someone to make the mold and send it, pearl powder and those materials, you can call a few shadow guards to follow Sun Gongzi to learn how to use the grinding machine, and you can make it, this kind of things related to secret recipes are still our own people to do with confidence."

"Well, yes! I'll do it. ”

Ye Tan was overjoyed, she had always been idle, and she was naturally happy to have something to do.

In the afternoon, Zhan Qianche returned to his home, and the courtyard in the house was already full of flower petals, including roses, peonies, daisies, lilies, and many brightly colored wildflowers that could not be named.

The winter sun is warm on the body, but it is not easy to dry the flowers, so Bai Qianning ordered people to burn a brazier under each sundeck, and the temperature in the yard was hot for a while.

Fearing that the only snow left on the eaves would be roasted, the Shadow Guards had no choice but to fly up and down to carry snow into the cellar.

"What is this doing?" Zhan Qianche looked at the bustle in the house, and as soon as he changed the silence of the past, he asked her with Bai Qianning in his arms.

Bai Qianning followed him into the inner room, and then said: "Right now, the Yan family is busy looking for the missing young master, and they don't have time to stare at the Cheng Mansion anymore, you sent so many shadow guards and maids to guard the mansion, they should all be stuffy, hehe, just right, the first batch of customized makeup is about to be made, and when it is delivered to those ladies, we are afraid that the order of 'Ten Miles of Red Makeup' will not be completed, just let the little girls in the mansion learn to make new cosmetics in advance, and it will definitely be of great use in the future." ”

"Oh? I'm going to hear how useful it is. Zhan Qianche pulled Bai Qianning to sit down, tapped the tip of her pen, and smiled dotingly.

Bai Qianning looked at the question on his face, and replied unconvinced: "Don't look at these cosmetics are all daughter's things, sometimes these daughter's things can be better than real knives and guns." ”

Zhan Qianche saw that she answered seriously, so he asked again: "What do you say?" ”

"I am confident that the makeup of ten miles of red makeup will be the best in the whole Ye country, and when it is famous, the public ladies will naturally not put such a good thing without it, and the makeup girls in the palace are also the first time to contact these cosmetics, for the dosage and dosage, the order of steps is not sure, when those ladies in order to please the emperor, they will naturally think of inviting some powerful makeup girls from ten miles of red makeup into the palace, and then our people will be able to mix into the palace naturally."

"Hmm." Zhan Qianche nodded with a thin smile, reached out and pinched Bai Qianning. The little face praised: "My family is so smart." ”

"Is that not it?" Bai Qianning pursed his mouth, stroked his bulging belly, and suddenly sank his eyes and said seriously: "I also hope that I can create a peaceful and peaceful world for our children as soon as possible." ”

"Don't worry, everything is under control, there is news from the shadow guard today, our Drunken Immortal Residence has a reputation and reputation no less than Xiangmanlou in the entire Ye country, even Jincheng is the same, most of the banquets of officials in the city will be selected in Drunken Immortal Residence, and the situation of the Yan family's dominance has been completely broken. So I'm here today to discuss with you the next steps, and I've already ordered someone. Roughly liquidated the revenue of restaurants around the country this month, the accounts are very considerable, and now the money is sufficient, teahouses, theaters, pharmacies, and red-sleeved incense can rest assured that the entire Ye country has been laid out. ”

"Really?" Bai Qianning was happy in his heart, if he wanted to completely defeat the Yan family, he had to do the business of the Cheng Mansion all over the entire Ye Kingdom, and then he could replace it. Speaking of which, the reason why Yan Moze killed thousands of lives was due to Yan Yuan, Grandma Zhao. 's hatred should also be recorded on Yan Yuan's head. Therefore, she looks forward to defeating the Yan family with her own hands every day, so that Yan Yuan can get the retribution she deserves.

Zhan Qianche understood her thoughts, so he touched Bai Qianning's forehead and promised her: "Don't worry, Grandma Zhao and the revenge of those thousands of people will be avenged soon." ”

"Hmm!" Bai Qianning nodded, his eyes overflowing with firmness and determination.
