Chapter 373: Ointment
Tian Youwei and the others had already walked towards the door, but they heard a shout behind them: "A few girls, please stay." β
Tian Youwei turned around and hid Zhang Wuniang behind her with Liao Shu, for fear that someone would see that Zhang Wuniang had cried.
I saw that the women I had just met came hurriedly with the old lady in a hurry, and the leading one said with a smile: "May I ask which one is the girl from Caowei Mountain?" β
Zhang Wuniang breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "It seems that I am looking for you to order porcelain, this is Mrs. Qiu, the wife of the commander in front of the palace, and she is not bad." β
Tian Youwei gave a salute: "It's me." β
Mrs. Qiu stepped forward, took her hand and looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "Good talent, northerner or southerner?" β
"Born and raised in the south, his hometown is on the shore of Yuyao Silver Lake." Tian Youwei smiled generously and brightly, and did not hide her background: "My family makes porcelain. β
Mrs. Qiu pursed her lips and laughed: "What a generous and cheerful character, isn't it?" β
"Really?" This sentence, she turned back to the other women.
Those who can command in front of the palace are all the emperor's confidants and cronies, and everyone can't help but give her face, and they all echo her, and even the serious and cold old lady also pulled the corners of her lips.
"Mrs. Xie praised it very much." Tian Youwei also laughed, for how to politely refuse these noble ladies.
"Shall we sit down and talk?" Mrs. Qiu looked at Tian Youwei inquiringly, with eagerness in her eyes, but no reluctance.
Tian Youwei likes Mrs. Qiu's proportion, but she is very embarrassed: "It's my blessing to be able to talk to a few ladies, but it's just that my current appearance is not suitable for seeing the light." β
She smiled and showed her swollen face to everyone, and complained slightly with a childish attitude: "Mosquito bites, itchy, swollen, very uncomfortable, I have to endure hard to not scratch, Wu Niang wants to take me to get medicine." Or, next time I'm Dongdong, invite a few people to tea? β
Mrs. Qiu touched her face lightly and frowned: "Why is it so swollen?" In that case, how about I do the east and invite a few of you children to tea another day? β
"Thank you, ma'am." Tian Youwei likes Mrs. Qiu more, she doesn't bully people, knows how to respect people, and is generous, she is really a rare good character among the wives of high-ranking officials, especially compared with the Meng family.
Mrs. Qiu smiled and waved goodbye to them, and the serious old lady suddenly said, "I have medicine with me." β
After saying this, the old lady turned around and went to the flower hall next to her.
βοΌοΌοΌβ Tian Youwei didn't understand too much, what this person meant, did she mean to ask her to go over and give her medicine?
Mrs. Qiu also greeted Tian Youwei and the three of them with a smile: "Come on, it is also your blessing to know this Old Lady Mu." β
"Madam......" Tian Youwei was difficult to ride a tiger, and was about to find another excuse to refuse politely, Zhang Wuniang had already said: "Awei, you go, I will go with Ashu." β
"Aren't you together?" Mrs. Qiu looked at Liao Shu, suddenly realized, and said understandingly: "Go, go, it's safer to get one more spare." β
Tian Youwei knew that she misunderstood that Liao Shu didn't want to get along with Meng's roommate, but she didn't explain, so she pushed the boat, said goodbye to Zhang Wuniang and Liao Shu, and followed Mrs. Qiu to the flower hall with Mrs. Mu's footsteps.
There is a group of simple and elegant shapes, warm and introverted color, beige, glazed porcelain with full of grains, amphorae, fish ear stoves, and complete sets of tea sets, all of which are not big, but they are exquisite and special, and they are first seen in the world.
Everyone was amazed, and they all felt that it was very elegant and good-looking.
Mrs. Qiu said generously: "My family is a military attachΓ©, but he likes to engage in these elegant things, if you see this, you must like it very much." So, Miss Oda, you're going to have to get me to do it. β
Tian Youwei was amused by Mrs. Qiu's words, she is really a rare and cheerful person, and she doesn't beat around the bush when she speaks, she still likes it.
Meng Shi's eyes showed a little disapproving and rather disdainful.
Even if the Qiu family is a second-grade official, and the Lin family is only a fourth-grade official, but that status is not comparable at all.
What's more, Mrs. Qiu is not a good thing, and just now she took the lead in sarcastically ridiculing her for marrying twice.
Meng's look fell into Tian Youwei's eyes, and she also knew the relationship between the two, the enemy of the enemy was a friend, Mrs. Qiu, she made a deal!
So Tian Youwei gently explained to Mrs. Qiu: "I'm afraid I can't do exactly the same, after all, this is to celebrate the wedding of the prince of the county." β
Mrs. Qiu also understood, and said with a smile: "I understand, how dare we compare with the nobles of Tianhuang?" You're going to get me the same thing. β
Tian Youwei said again: "This kind of glaze is just blended, it is easy to burn, and it cannot be burned with other porcelain, the firepower required is different, it can only be burned alone, and the investment will be very large, even if I don't make money, it is worth a lot...... If you are not in a hurry, you can pay the deposit first, and the number of people who will wait for the order is enough, just enough for a furnace, then it will save a lot of money. β
She didn't know if Mrs. Qiu could afford the price, and she was afraid that she would look down on people, so she could only pick and choose to be as tactful as possible.
"You kid understand! I like it! Mrs. Qiu lowered her voice: "How much does it cost?" β
Tian Youwei stretched out two fingers: "At least this number, this is still everything going smoothly and there is no waste." β
"Two thousand taels? My good boy! It's really expensive! Mrs. Qiu patted her chest: "Is there a way to save money and time?" β
"If you ask a few more companies to do it together, you can save time, but I am afraid you can't save money." Tian Youwei tried her best to make herself smile sweet and cute, coaxing silver and money, hey!
She didn't know that the lumps on her face were getting more and more swollen, and even her eyes were swollen.
"Liniment first." Old Madam Mu had been listening to the conversation between Tian Youwei and Mrs. Qiu before, and only then did she open her mouth, and ordered a middle-aged woman with thin eyebrows and thin eyes and a light complexion next to her: "Fetch it." β
"Yes." The middle-aged woman took the ointment from the maid's hand, and Chaotian Youwei smiled faintly: "Miss Tian came by herself, or did I ask someone to rub it for you?" β
"This is Mrs. Mu." Mrs. Qiu and Tian Youwei introduced: "She is the daughter-in-law of Mrs. Mu, and she is also an excellent person. β
Mrs. Xiao Mu squeezed out a faint smile at this time.
Tian Youwei smiled and thanked the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "There are two ladies, I will come by myself." β
Ximei opened the ivory box and saw that it contained a pale green lipid ointment, exuding a faint smell of herbs, so he quietly dug a little bit and tried it behind his ear.
After all, this is the face, not somewhere else, if it doesn't apply, the face will be ruined, and then on Shao Jing's face, the girl must not be angry to death.
Meng Shi saw it in his eyes, and suddenly smiled: "What a capable and considerate maid!" β
