Chapter Twenty-Three: The Orchid

Mingyi heard Hong Yi say that she was heavy-hearted, and she didn't know what it was like for a while. After being silent for a long time, he laughed at himself: "Who let us not cultivate a good life, wear to the rich and noble, and only need to fantasize about a wishful husband in the deep boudoir every day." ”

Hong Yi saw that she was distracted, and couldn't bear it, so he went over and hugged her shoulder: "It's not too bad, at least you still have me,"

Ming Yi patted his arm: "Your body is sound, your brain is not broken, you still have a face that captivates the country and the city, we have also drawn the lottery, and the rest will be earned by your own hands." ”

Hong Yi also learned from her to pat her arm: "You still have my hands, I won't let you work so hard alone." ”

Mingyi's eyes were a little hot: "I can't bear to entertain those filthy men, and it's the same if you help me do a good job of the endorsement of the Gleaning Workshop." ”

"Don't worry, at most, let me touch my little hands and hug my small waist, and I won't lose anything. Just can't be so lazy anymore. Otherwise, in a few years, I'm afraid that no one will patronize it after touching it for a penny. Hong Yi laughed at himself, no matter how chic he was, he couldn't escape the fear of a woman growing old, let alone in an era when he was fifteen or sixteen years old and had come out to beg for a living.

Ming Yi didn't want the two to continue to be entangled here, and then hugged her and cried Shaohua Yi Away, and hurriedly pulled her out: "It's not early, you have to rush to Xishi, you ask Yin's mother to borrow a carriage, and I will make an appointment with Xing Qing tomorrow." ”

Xing Qing listened to her simple words, and agreed, it happened that he was also very bored, so he went to Xishi to be a staff officer.

The three of them in a car, they don't have much to appreciate the scenery of the outside world, the horses' hooves are trampling, it is inevitable that they will be bumpy, everyone's faces are not very good-looking, and the silence in the carriage is a little embarrassing.

Ming Yi had the responsibility to find some topics: "Can Xing Qing's new song be named?" ”

"Never." Xing Qing shook his head, "It's really not my forte to choose a name for lyrics." ”

Hong Yi hummed a few words: "Whose daughter Luo fan flutters fireflies, where the sound of the flute disturbs the dream, the red candle is like tears, the peach blossom cheeks cry blood, and the piano is broken and the tea is cool and the cold painting screen is alone." ”

"Since it's sung by Hu Meiren, it's better to call it a beauty." Ming Yi said casually, but he didn't think too much about it, and his mind was full of how to use Hu Meiren to compare the products of Hongyunfang.

"Hong Yi, if I want to be better than makeup, how can I do it?" This kind of problem is naturally to be thrown at the person who is good at it.

"Isn't that easy? Draw a half-face makeup, use a bad product on the side, and then sprinkle some water to see it faint like a ghost painting. While using your own products, do a good job of setting makeup, and the advantages and disadvantages are self-explanatory. Of course, the technique can also do some hands and feet, half of the face is vulgar, half of the face is natural. "Hong Yi was born as a model and also has live broadcast experience, which is just a small means.

Xing Qing listened interestingly, and interjected: "This is an allusion to Concubine Xu's half-face makeup in the Southern Dynasty. Then this song might as well be called half-face red makeup, which is also interesting. ”

The two modern women responded with the voice, and they didn't know what to do.

The West Market was the last prosperous time of the day, and Hu Shang's shouting was mixed with all kinds of strange accents. I chose a Hufu shop to enter, and the strong fragrance of the Western Regions was dazzling. The clothes are all vermilion and emerald green, with gold shining gilt jewelry, and the eyes are dizzying.

Xing Qing was inconvenient to enter, so he and the groom went to Rongyifang to rest and wait. Hong Yi couldn't wait to pick two to try.

Ming Yi never doubted Hong Yi's taste, and Hu Shang on the side even gave a thumbs up, saying that these were the two best items in his shop. Mingyi wrinkled his nose, which meant that it was only the two most expensive pieces.

Hong Yi changed his clothes and came out to make Mingyi's eyes shine, the first one is gold-based, a tight shirt embroidered with gold silk on the upper body, inlaid with red-green gemstones, extremely luxurious, a golden dance skirt on the lower body, the hem is huge, gently rotating like a golden wave, with a golden bell on the ankle, the auditory and visual senses are full of impact.

Ming Yi looked left and right, and always felt that although the clothes were good, they were a bit noisy, and it was even more difficult to highlight the face makeup. So I asked her to change the second one. Hong Yi was a little reluctant, but he was obedient to change his shirt.

The second one is the kind that Mingyi wants, and it is really extraordinary.

The gaudy pink shirt is trimmed with gold and is short, revealing a water snake-like waist and a perfectly shaped oval navel. The lower body is also bright pink silk loose trousers, and the gold embroidered belt around the waist hangs a few pieces of light yarn in red, and it looks like a microwave. The red gauze of the same color is hung obliquely on the shoulders, and the jade arms are half covered, which makes the whole person appear slender and exquisite, and the skin is clear. It's not too ostentatious, and more importantly, it shouldn't be as expensive as the first one.

I also picked out a few gilt anklets and headdresses and asked the price together.

Hu Shang stroked his withered yellow beard and counted for a long time: "Shenghui five money." ”

Mingyi's jaw was about to fall, and after calculating for a long time, the five yuan was more than one-third of her inventory, which was to heaven.

Hong Yi changed his clothes and came out, and he was also shocked when he heard it, and shouted in line with the experience of cutting half on the spot: "Two runs plus five hundred, no more." ”

The smile on Hu Shang's face disappeared completely, and he snatched his clothes over: "Let's go, don't delay my business if you don't have money." ”

Mingyi didn't leave, nor did he stay, and was dragged away by Hong Yi: "Let's go, I don't believe that there is no other store to sell in this West Market." ”

Hu Shang rolled his eyes: "If there are other families that are good for me, I will give them away for nothing." ”

Ming Yi was still hesitating, and the great savior fell from the sky.

Xia Huanfeng stepped in, followed by Xing Qing.

"You golden lion is bloody again?" Xia Huanfeng's own queen aura made Hu Shangdu take two steps back, with a smile on his face.

"Don't dare, I don't know if it's Xia Niangzi's friend." Hu Shang's forehead was about to sweat, and he lowered his head and didn't dare to face it.

Xia Huanfeng took the clothes and looked at them: "The goods are good." Always pay it, go to my Rongyifang to settle the bill. ”

Ming Yi took the clothes, and caught a glimpse of a delicate golden flower on the cabinet, and couldn't take his eyes off it.

Xia Huanfeng was meticulous and took Hua Tian easily: "This is a giveaway." ”

Hu Shang wanted to speak and stopped, gritted his teeth, and just begged to send this living bodhisattva out of the door: "Xia Niangzi spoke, what about my little shop for a month." ”

Xia Huanfeng didn't bother to talk to him: "If you come to patronize, I will also give you a bottle of wine, what are you talking about." ”

Turned his head and called Mingyi and Hong Yi: "The two ladies are tired, come to me for a glass of water." ”

After saying that, the group returned with a full load, and Mingyi only felt that he owed this Xia Niangzi a great favor again, and he didn't know when he would be able to pay it back.

A table of wine and food was prepared at Rongyifang, and Xia Huanfeng also sat down with him: "Xing Qing said that the two ladies have the habit of dinner, and I am also closed here, no one disturbs, if you don't dislike it, Huanfeng will accompany the two of you to have a few drinks." ”

Mingyi was worried that the sun was about to set westward: "I'm just afraid of delaying the return trip." ”

Xia Huanfeng poured wine: "The curfew was originally just a show, and it was easy to say if you didn't leave the city gate." If someone stops me, Ming Niangzi shows me that maple leaf, and no one dares to stop it. ”

Xing Qing said with a smile: "The two ladies don't doubt the magical powers of Xia Niangzi. ”

Only then did Ming Yi put his mind at ease and raised his glass: "In the past two days, I have relied on Xia Niangzi to help, and Ming Yi has done it first as a respect." ”
