Chapter 30: Farce

Due to the backwardness of time and space technology, Pei Baoer can't make any preservatives and the like by herself, and she is not qualified to conduct a large number of allergen tests. Her small workshop took this problem into account at the beginning of production, so after countless experiments with the skin on her hands and feet, on the basis of retaining the small binder of Guanyin soil, she abandoned some of the more common materials in the modern formula, and instead used some Chinese medicinal materials of similar color and texture to polish them into fine powders, such as Angelica dahurica and Angelica baiji instead of titanium dioxide to whiten, Garcinia cambogia instead of iron oxide, and so on.

Overall, these products have a slight loss of functionality, but they are quite reliable in terms of security. At least, compared to those lead powder ingredients, rouge gouache can be said to be very healthy and environmentally friendly.

But Pei Baoer knows that although the sample has now expanded from her alone to a young woman in Taixing County, the number of samples is still small. From the perspective of modern science, there are countless human allergens, and any kind of plant, animal fur, gas, etc. can be allergens. In other words, these people are not allergic to her cosmetics, but there may be one in a million people who happen to be allergic to one of these things.

Therefore, as soon as she knew about Ma's rash, Pei Baoer was suspicious of this at the first time.

It's just that the Ma family wants to sue the two cases together, and the timing happens to be a few days after the Ma family is unsuccessful, which really makes people think about it.

The shopkeeper Qin said in detail: "Lord Qiyu, the small one is the shopkeeper of Ruyu Pavilion, surnamed Qin." On the thirteenth of last month, Ma came to our shop, asked a lot of questions about the recruitment of female workers, signed up, and bought a box of the cheapest makeup powder for 200 yuan. After that, it was the fifteenth, and it happened to be the day of the winter solstice, Pei Niangzi took the school examination for a few little ladies who signed up, and screened out two, and Ma was among them. In the three days from sixteen to eighteen, Ma and another Luo Niangzi tried out work in the store. On the twenty-third day, Pei Niangzi and Xiao decided to hire Luo Niangzi. You know what is going on. ”

The reason why Shopkeeper Qin is so honest is not because he never forgets it and can remember every transaction he handles clearly. It's because Pei Baoer suggested that he improve his way of doing accounts from the beginning, after all, the fat powder business is different from selling cloth and utensils, and it is very likely to cause disputes. She asked him to record key information such as the date, time, last name of the purchaser, product model purchased, and quantity purchased for each transaction, so that he could easily follow the map. Otherwise, if they encounter Ma's suing like this, they don't even know what products the other party bought at what time, let alone confront others.

Seeing that Master Su was sitting in the hall, Ma immediately defended himself: "Lord Qiyu, there is indeed a job recruitment, but what does this have to do with the prickly heat on the slave family's face?" Is it possible, can the slave family still be unpredictable? She accused the shopkeeper Qin again: "You specifically pointed out that the makeup powder I bought is the most inferior, what do you mean?" Could it be that you have acquiesced, and there are some inferior goods in your shop? ”

Pei Bao'er said quietly: "Don't worry, Mrs. Ma, the shopkeeper Qin is telling the truth, and he doesn't mean anything else." I have a question, and I would like to ask Mrs. Ma for advice. She glanced at Master Su, who bowed slightly, and she asked: "Since Mrs. Ma bought makeup powder on the thirteenth day, and during the interview on the fifteenth, she is very familiar with the gestures of the makeup powder, presumably the time to practice at home on the thirteenth and fourteenth is not short, right?" ”

Ma gritted his teeth, "It's only been used once or twice, and it's not very familiar." ”

Pei Bao'er nodded, "In that case, why did you start using it on the thirteenth day and only have a rash on the twenty-fifth?" ”

Ma Shi rolled his eyes, "Maybe it's because the toxins in your makeup powder have accumulated to a certain amount, and that's why something went wrong." At first, it was just a red dot, and then it turned into a large red rash, isn't that the truth? ”

Pei Bao'er sighed, and asked again: "Could it be that after the red dots, Ma Niangzi continued to use our Ruyu Pavilion makeup powder until today?" ”

Ma's hands clenched tightly, and the tips of his nails dug into the flesh.

"Naturally not, two days ago, I didn't know that it was the makeup powder, and I saw that the red dot was not good-looking, so I thought I wanted to cover it up, so I continued to use it. Later, when it became serious, I didn't dare to use it anymore. Yes, that's it, I stopped the makeup powder, but the rash didn't get any better. You ask and ask, but you just want to evade responsibility! You just say, do you pay for the cost of my face diagnosis and treatment??? ”

Pei Bao'er smiled slightly, and said to Lord Su: "If it is really our fault, we will naturally have to pay for it." But since its opening, the makeup powder that Ma Niangzi bought is the second best-selling makeup powder in our shop, and dozens of boxes have been sold. You see, so many people have used it, and she is the only one who says there is a problem. She paused, leaving some time for everyone to think about her words, and said: "My lord, the slave family invited an old doctor before coming today, and he is now waiting at the tea stall ten zhang away, why don't you ask him to come to the court to treat Ma Niangzi, and see if there is any misunderstanding?" ”

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Qin couldn't help but look sideways. Why didn't he know that this Pei Niangzi still had this hand? Thinking of what Mrs. Lin told him, he began to have trouble in his heart again.

With the approval of Master Su, the white-bearded and white-eyebrow old doctor Shi was quickly invited over.

Ma's eyes were a little evasive, a little unhappy: "Where is this barefoot doctor from?" I have lived in Taixing County for more than 20 years, don't I know how many hospitals and doctors there are in the city? Are you looking for a fake to deceive me? Please also have a good understanding! After a while, this fake doctor estimated that what he said was biased towards them, and he couldn't believe it! ”

The corners of Su Qian's mouth twitched, and just about to say something, Old Doctor Shi was not happy.

He frowned and glanced at the village woman who spoke, then glared at Pei Bao'er vaguely, and said unceremoniously: "You know a fart!" Before the old man returned to his hometown, he was a judge in the Tai Hospital, which was two levels higher than your county order! Dare to say that the old man is a barefoot doctor, hum! The old man doesn't serve you, an ignorant village woman! Then he turned to leave.

Su Qian had also heard that this Imperial Doctor Shi was not a small person, and he was both a junior and a subordinate, so he hurriedly got up and made a gesture to stop someone. The discerning officials also rushed forward one after another, blocking the way of Dr. Shi.

Pei Bao'er accompanied the smiling face again, and repeatedly said good things, and the old man turned around angrily, looked around Ma's, and pulled her right hand to cut the pulse. Ma Shi retracted his hand and said with a sneering face: "It's just some rashes, isn't it good to look at your face?" How do you still cut the pulse? ”

Old Doctor Shi muttered again with contempt, her short-sightedness was short-sighted, and she simply didn't care about it behind her back.

He was even more angry when he saw Pei Bao'er with a smiling face on the side. I was originally sentenced by the hospital to be well-deserved, and I was expecting to live for more than one or two decades, and I boiled the envoy of the Zhang Yuan to death, and I was in charge of the Tai Hospital, but I was brought back here with the name of saying goodbye to the old man and returning to his hometown, and I have to see a group of ignorant people fighting for the length of the matter, which is really unlucky!

Ma secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, but Pei Baoer was overjoyed by the glance of Fang Cai, and looked at Heng Meileng and was even more grateful to his old doctor, and couldn't wait to laugh three times.

Su Qian sat in the hall, a little unclear.

"This, Ma's you don't ......"

He was just about to ask Ma to cooperate with the diagnosis and treatment and find out the cause of the disease, so that it would be convenient for him to make a diagnosis, but he didn't expect to see Pei Bao'er suddenly raise the corners of his mouth, as if he had caught some handle from Ma, so he stopped.

Pei Baoer reacted quickly and asked Dr. Shi a question: "Dare to ask the old doctor, if there is a problem with the fat powder and the like, if it is used on the face, it is possible to have a rash on the face?" ”

Doctor Shi snorted, "Of course it's possible. ”

Ma Shi was overjoyed when he heard this, so he hurriedly said: "Isn't it, it would be okay to say this earlier, and still engage in such a set of chattering ......"

"Eh, Ma Niang, I haven't finished asking yet." Pei Baoer continued to ask: "If there is a problem with the fat powder applied to the face, will this person have a rash elsewhere on his body?" ”

Doctor Shi raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and said decisively: "That's impossible, the exogenous substances can only cause rashes, or itching and erosion where they come into contact with the skin." You want to have symptoms all over your body, unless it's something you eat. ”

Pei Bao'er smiled and said, "Then I'll rest assured." Thank you, Doctor. ”

Before Old Doctor Shi could figure out the situation, Pei Baoer suddenly flashed to Ma's side, pulled his right hand, and rolled up his sleeve with lightning speed.

Everyone was taken aback, a few men turned their faces away, but the others couldn't help but look at them curiously.

I saw that the small arm exposed by Ma Shi was also covered with a dense red rash, which looked smaller than her face, but there were more of them, and it made people's scalps numb.

Everyone thought of Pei Bao'er and Dr. Shi's last two questions and answers just now, and they couldn't help but understand. If Ma really used Ruyuge's makeup powder to rot his face, how could his arms be covered with this? It can't be that you have too much money to put that makeup powder on your arm, right?

Being attacked by Pei Bao'er like this, Ma Shi was startled, ashamed and angry, and hurriedly rolled down his sleeves, so angry that his throat was trembling: "You, you shrew, actually humiliated me like this!" I, I'm not alive! With that, he rushed to the pillar beside him, apparently seeking death and life.

All of a sudden, there was chaos in the county government.

There are exclamations, pointing and discussing, blocking, struggling, and watching coldly, and there are no dead people anyway.

Ma, who was held by the waist and dragged away from the pillar, looked back and saw that the person who saved him was actually a yellow-toothed servant, and he was grinning at himself, and he cried even harder.

Su Qian couldn't laugh or cry, compared to the cases he had broken before, today's two cases can be said to be a farce within a farce, and the protagonists are all family! This is really, not a family, not a family!

He didn't bother to ask Ma what tricks he used to toss himself full of red rashes to fool people, and when Ma admitted that it was just a misunderstanding, he hastily revealed the case. After all, people have said that they are short-sighted and don't know that what is applied to their faces cannot cause rashes on the skin on their bodies, this is just a misunderstanding, what can you do, you can't cure her of the sin of "short-sightedness", right?

So Lord Su announced the disbandment.

Ma was afraid that Master Su would change his mind and beat himself again, so he immediately left in a gray manner, and his movements and body looked quite similar to her second brother.

Pei Bao'er is quite satisfied with this result, she has no deep hatred with the Ma family, although she falsely accused Ruyuge once, but in the end, there was no loss, it would be good to stay away from such villains in the future. She sighed to Shopkeeper Qin and said, "I knew that she was not right, so I shouldn't have let her go to the retest, but I raised her heart." It's really a fight for Mien to rise to Mi hatred! ”

Shopkeeper Qin had a polite smile on his face, but his heart was in turmoil.

He didn't know if he was bothered by not knowing how to explain to Mrs. Lin for a while, or if he was glad that Ruyu Pavilion had escaped from this case, or if he was lucky that he didn't have time to ask Mrs. Pei to tell the makeup powder recipe to prove her innocence, or if he was sighing for Mrs. Pei who had no idea about Mrs. Lin's plans?

Sure enough, after Shopkeeper Qin truthfully reported what he had seen in court today, Mrs. Lin was very unhappy.

"I underestimated her! actually kept a hand secretly, and the wind didn't penetrate at all, so it can be seen that he didn't treat us as his own. Even so, you can't blame me for being ruthless! ”
