Chapter 117
"It's my sister Coral who has to make rouge, so I can't help it, so I make it together." Liuli had no choice but to pull the coral girl out again, and at the same time emphasized: "Besides, how can a woman not know how to do rouge?" It's a girl's nature, and there's nothing new about it. ”
"But Rouge is like you, I'm afraid it's not as simple as nature." Zhao Mingxu said in his heart, seeing that Liuli was in a hurry to explain, and he didn't want to embarrass her, so he didn't say this.
After taking the pen and ink, Zhao Mingxu asked, "What are the font requirements?" ”
Seeing that he was going to write, Liuli hurriedly stepped forward to help grind, and said, "There are no requirements." She didn't know any of the ancient fonts, where could she say it: "Just be clear and clear." ”
"Okay." Zhao Mingxu replied, waved his pen and ink, brushed a few strokes, and completed it in one go.
I saw that on the paper scroll, the eight characters of "spring flowers and autumn moon, national color and heavenly fragrance" were presented, although the words were small, but they were clear, and there was no pen.
"It's beautiful." Liuli is sincerely admired.
Zhao Mingxu took the pen and ink, waited for the ink to dry, and handed it to Liuli.
The latter took it and looked at it for a while: "Sure enough, looking for the second son is looking for the right person, and I can't catch up with this word." ”
This sentence is enough to pat the horse, but Zhao Mingxu was in a good mood when he heard it, and said with a smile: "Why, there are things in this world that Erniang can't do?" ”
"That's a lot." Liuli also said, "For example, this calligraphy, I practice it every day, and it is like a dog crawling." ”
Hearing her belittle her own font like this, Zhao Mingxu seemed to disbelieve it, picked up the brush and handed it to her: "Why don't you write it and take a look?" ”
"Huh?" Ruri was embarrassed: "Don't want it." "It's really ugly that her words are so ugly, I'm really embarrassed to take them out and write them.
Zhao Mingxu held the pen and looked at her with a light smile.
"Well, you are not allowed to laugh at me." Liuli took the pen like a duck on the shelf, went around to the other side of the bookcase, put aside the eight words that the man had just written in his hand, and wrote the eight words "Spring flowers and autumn moon, national color and heavenly fragrance" with reference.
It's just that, as soon as these eight words come out, it's obviously bigger than the man's fly-headed small Kai, although Liuli has worked hard to write it, however, the actual effect is still ...... Dog crawls.
"Poofha, hahahaha." I only heard the man behind him burst into a burst of wild laughter, and there was no trace of the temperament of a noble son at all.
"Hey." Liuli smiled embarrassed at him, blushed and said sullenly: "I know I can't write well, but ...... But you're laughing too loudly, right? ”
"Hahahaha."
"Hey!" Ruri screamed even louder.
The man seemed to finally hear her dissatisfaction, and tried to put away his laughter: "It seems that you are not exaggerating. ”
"What?" Ruri asked stupidly.
"It's called getting your feet on ink, and I'm afraid that's what you step on on the paper." Zhao Mingxu said.
Glass:...... Shasha was the dog he gave her.
Liuli was depressed, and she didn't want the man to move behind her suddenly, and there was a warm touch from the left hand holding the pen, and it was the man's big hand that covered it, and then she felt that her whole body was half-stopped by the man in his arms.
"You ......" Ruri tensed her nerves for a moment, and was about to say something.
"Shh The man stopped softly, holding her right hand with a warm right hand, moistening the pen, dipping the ink, waving it, all in one go, and eight small characters jumped on the paper, which was in stark contrast to the eight words written by Liuli Shicai.
The man's breath went straight to Liuli's earmark, and she subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the person behind her let go of her first: "Write like this, will you?" ”
"Yes...... Yes. Liuli stammered, and quickly put down the brush, as if it was some hot thing.
"Can I take this?" Liuli pointed to the paper with two lines of "Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon, National Color and Heavenly Fragrance" written side by side, and said slightly embarrassed.
Seeing the man nodding, she quickly put away the paper and put it in her arms with the one that the man had just written alone.
It wasn't until she came out of Zhao's Mansion that Liuli felt that her cheeks were still hot, and when she was blown by the cold wind, it slowly dissipated.
When I got home, Liuli didn't say what psychology she had, so she found a small wooden box with two lines of paper written on it, and put it in with great importance.
On the other hand, Zhao Mingxu's words written alone, he sent them to Carpenter Chen, and explained clearly which lipstick tubes were engraved with what words.
Carpenter Chen had a reference mold and carved all 100 pipes in a few days.
When the coral and grass lipstick are ready, the glass is sent to the Rouge Pavilion together.
Wei Zi had been waiting for her for a long time, and Mrs. Wang, who had already bought the original eight lipsticks, had already bought them well, and Mrs. Wang, who was the first to buy the lipsticks, came to get the remaining two colors the next day.
Then, as if overnight, the fame of lipstick spread, and one after another noble ladies came to the Rouge Pavilion and asked for the lipstick.
Even Mrs. Ding wanted to take one for her own use, but she had to delay it temporarily because there was no stock.
At present, more than a dozen lipsticks in Rouge Pavilion have been booked, like Mrs. Wang, it is not enough to buy one color, the ladies and ladies of the rich and noble families have to buy all the colors before they are willing.
"That's right, I've made a new color." Liuli listened to Wei Ziyi's call, and took out a new orange-red lipstick to show her.
"Okay, well, let's put this new color in a conspicuous place, and it will definitely sell the fastest." Wei Zidao, and then found that each of these batches of lipsticks was engraved with words on the outside, and said strangely: "This word? ”
"Oh, different words represent different colors," Ruri explains, "for example, this orange-red color is the autumn moon, and this peach-pink color is the spring flower." ”
"It's wonderful, Erniang's mind is really delicate", Wei Zi praised repeatedly, in this way, those young ladies and ladies of rich families have to collect "spring flowers and autumn moons, the country is beautiful and fragrant".
Wei Zixian gave her the money, and said excitedly: "It's the New Year's Festival soon, and it's really time for Erniang's hundred lipsticks to come." ”
After Liuli left, Wei Zi first chose four sets of colors, wrapped them carefully, and personally sent them to Mrs. Ding's mansion.
Liuli came back from the town, and when she passed by Zhao's house, she lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw that the door of the house was closed, and there was no cooking smoke on it.
"Are you out?" Ruri muttered, lowering the curtain with a slight sense of loss.
Zhao Mingxu set off on the second day of Liuli's departure, and returned to Beijing on the order, and now he has arrived in Beijing, waiting for him is a false politeness and true contempt, so many years, Zhao Mingxu has actually been used to it.
This time, for some reason, he looked at the tall city gate of Shangjing, and suddenly remembered Dawan Village, the little girl who was crawling with a dog in one hand and her bright and sincere smile.
