The little ÷ said ◎ Net], the ♂ little ÷ said ◎ Net],

Chen Yapo quickly pulled a thin woman out and said:

"This is the Zheng family, a few years ago, married, and then the family suffered a disaster, the husband and son are gone, and they were sold to me by the mother's family, she is honest, and her cooking skills are good, if the lady is not satisfied with the purchase back, then come back to return it, my Chen Yapo has been on North Street for decades, but I can't smash my signboard."

Xue Su took a closer look and found that although Zheng's face was sallow, as thin as a reed stick, he was quite clean, and there was no mud on his nails and hair.

If you buy your mother-in-law, you will definitely have to send it to work in the kitchen in the future, in case this person is not particular and will not eat cleanly, Xue Su will also be guilty of a diaphragm in his heart.

"Go pick a few little maids again, and you want to be less talkative and diligent."

Although he said this, Xue Su still looked at their appearance when he picked the maids, after all, the maids had to serve female customers, what if the appearance was hideous and ugly, and the customers had to be scared away? Yan Ruyu is a private house, and it is not a good hall, which she knows very well in her heart.

After spending a whole afternoon on North Street, Xue Su finally picked all the people.

The little maids are just delicate, not beautiful, each of them costs ten taels, and the mother-in-law is slightly cheaper, spending eight taels, Chen Yapo wiped a fraction of Xue Su's head, and finally asked for eighty-five taels.

Thinking that he still owes Liu Yiqing a hundred taels of silver, and now he has spent another sum, even if Xue Su is not an iron rooster who is not a hair, he feels a little painful at this moment.

After handing over the silver money and getting the deed, she took people back to the small building, Lian Sheng saw such little girls of the same age as her, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then her little face showed obvious joy, walked up to Xue Su, pulled the woman's cuffs, and asked in a low voice:

"Auntie, are they going to live in our house in the future?"

Xue Su nodded, "They live in a small building, help us take care of the female guests, you can't bully others." She told her uncle and nephew about the maids' signing of the death contract, wiped the fine sweat oozing from the corners of her forehead with a silk handkerchief, and did not notice that the man's already resolute face became more tense.

In the evening, Zheng cooked, stewed a pot of fish head tofu soup, stir-fried a plate of spicy rabbit, and two green vegetables.

Xue Su looked at the milky white soup in the bowl, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, he didn't taste the earthy smell of crucian carp, but felt that the meat was tender and smooth, and the tofu was also fragrant and delicious.

Early in the morning of the second day, Yan Ruyu officially opened.

Xue Su bought two firecrackers and lit them on the bamboo poles, making a crackling sound.

Many women around heard the movement, and couldn't help but glance in the direction of the small building, although Jingyang is close to the capital, but it is not as good as the foot of the Son of Heaven, there is not even a private museum in the city, fortunately, some women have been to the capital, and have heard of the private museum, so they walked in directly.

The first guest in the shop was Hu Mingyue.

This one has been waiting for Xue Su to open, and he came early today with a maid.

The fragrant red drink has not yet been brewed, but there are many willow dew and various greases, which can be applied to the face and body, and with a special massage method, they can have different effects.

Xue Su briefly introduced Hu Mingyue, this young lady of the imperial merchant had a cool temperament, walked up to the second floor with a few chuckles, entered the compartment, saw the concubine-colored veil, smelled a faint fragrance of flowers in front of her nose, and couldn't help but feel a little satisfied in her heart, took off the smock on her body, and lay on the soft bed wearing only a green bandeau dress.

If you want to learn all the massage techniques, you will definitely not be able to do it without spending a month, but fortunately, the maids are very diligent and carefully watch Xue Su's movements on the side.

I saw the proprietress smear the milky white pancreas on Miss Hu's face, and gently rubbed the soft fingertips in circles, adding rose flower juice and pig pancreas to the pancreas, showing a reddish color.

Seven white ointment is also recorded in the secret recipe, the main ingredient is some medicinal materials, not rare, but the proportion of the configuration is very important, a little careless, add more atractylodes, this thing not only does not have the effect of beauty and beauty, but will make the cheeks hot and swollen.

Fortunately, Xue Su privately prepared it several times according to the secret recipe, and after making sure that there would be no mistakes, he took the seven white ointments to the private hall.

The facial massage is divided into three steps, in which the pancreas is to make the skin and flesh clean, and the seven white ointment has a whitening effect, and finally ends with elephant bile ointment, the light green transparent ointment is covered with a thin silk cloth in the shape of a human face, which is gently pressed by hand, and the silk cloth is tightly attached to the cheeks, leaving no gaps.

After a quarter of an hour, when the white silk cloth was slightly yellow, Xue Su reached out to uncover the silk cloth, carefully washed it with cold well water, and then applied the perfume used to even the face on weekdays, even if there was no makeup, the skin looked much whiter than before.

Hu Mingyue sat in front of the bronze mirror, her fingertips caressing her smooth cheeks, and her eyes couldn't help but show a trace of amazement.

There are also many private restaurants in the capital, earlier she suffered from obesity, she has not been to this kind of place, and now for the first time with such a complicated process of care, I feel that this silver is worth it.

There were other guests in the private hall soon, this time it was received by Liansheng in person, the little girl greeted the female guest for the first time, and she couldn't help but feel a little nervous in her heart, and looked at her aunt at a loss, but fortunately, Xue Su had been whispering beside her to comfort, and her hanging heart was relaxed.

On the first day, there were more than ten female guests in the small building, but there were only five people who massaged their faces, after all, it would cost one or two lines of silver to get a once, which was naturally nothing to the rich lady who had a lot of money at hand, but the girl from the small family felt very heartbroken, and felt that it was better to save up with all this money, buy a box of good rouge, and look better when applied to the face.

The business is not good, Xue Su does not feel anxious, after all, everything is difficult at the beginning, every grease in the private hall is made by her painstaking efforts, from the selection of materials to the production method has spent countless efforts, the asking price is naturally higher, if it is sold at a low price at the beginning, and if you want to raise the price in the future, I am afraid that the reputation of the store will be ruined.

The Cheng family opened a grocery store in Jingyang, although the shop is not large, but there are many customers who come in and out every day.

Cheng Sanniang, who had just returned to the city from Anning Village, sat on a soft chair, and the little maid squatted to pinch her legs, and said softly: "Miss, there is a private restaurant in the city recently, called Yan Ruyu, I heard that every female guest will spend a tael of silver to enter, and the proprietress is really a black-hearted!" ”

Hearing the word "private hall", Cheng Sanniang felt a little familiar for a while, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it, and when the little maid mentioned that Yan Ruyu's proprietress was from Anning Village and her surname was Xue, the woman's delicate cheeks turned pale for a moment, she gritted her teeth, and pushed the little maid to the ground.

"Xue Su, you robbed me of my things, and opened a private museum in the city, it's really shameless!" Muttering to herself, Cheng Sanniang finally remembered what the treasure she had been thinking about was, that is, the books placed in the Wang family's study.

The secret recipe that should have belonged to her in the dream, I don't know what went wrong, it was actually held by Xue Su in her hands, and the despicable woman also opened a shop in the city first, taking away everything that belonged to her.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't calm down, her eyes were blood-red, her expression was hideous, and she couldn't wait to peel off Xue Su's skin in order to relieve the hatred in her heart.

The maid who fell to the ground glanced at her young lady's distorted face, and her legs weakened in fright, and it took a long time to get up and stand in front of the house with her head bowed.

Cheng Sanniang's face changed from blue to white, and suddenly she seemed to think of something, her fox eyes narrowed slightly, and she waved her hand and said, "Rongxi, you tell your father, I will go back to Anning Village tomorrow." ”

Rong Xi said boldly: "Didn't you just come back, if the old lady asks, the slave and maid are afraid that it will be difficult to explain." ”

"You tell your father and mother that I have something left at my aunt's house, so I think about going back to get it and teach them not to worry."

While speaking, Cheng Sanniang was in a good mood, and her plump lips hooked up a smile, and this uncertain temperament shocked Rong Xi, but she didn't dare to say anything.

On the second day, the carriage of the Cheng family rushed to Anning Village, and soon arrived at the entrance of the village, and told the coachman to stop, Cheng Sanniang did not go to Wang's house, but went straight to Xue's house.

Because the two families are relatives, she has also been here once before, and Aunt Xue welcomed people in affectionately and brought them to Xue Yue's room.

Sweeping the white jade hairpin on the woman's head, Xue Yue's eyes were red with jealousy, she was not good at hiding her thoughts, and Cheng Sanniang was a deep city, so she naturally looked at her completely at a glance.

Sitting on the low stool quietly, Cheng Sanniang glanced at Xue Yue's still flat belly, and said softly: "At the end of the month, you and your cousin will get married, and I don't have anything good to take out, if Yueniang doesn't dislike it, this magnolia hairpin has a good texture......"

Reaching out and taking off the jade hairpin in her hair, Xue Yue's eyes stared at the lush jade, her heart was pounding, and she was about to snatch the thing when she reached out, but she didn't want Cheng Sanniang to suddenly retreat a little.

Xue Yue's eyes widened and she said angrily, "Are you kidding me? ”

The woman's face was sad: "I can't hide it, I have something I want to ask Yueniang to help, once it is done, not only this magnolia hairpin will be given away, but also the best rouge gouache, painted on the face is delicate and beautiful, my cousin loves this tender color, and I must be very happy to see it." ”

"What?"

Cheng Sanniang's eyes flickered, and she said: "Your cousin has a book in her hand, which was supposed to be mine, but she somehow took it away, and it was hidden in the Chu family at the moment, I am an outsider, so it's not good to go in and rummage through it, but you are Xue Su's own sister, and it shouldn't be difficult to take out the book." ”

As soon as she heard the book, Xue Yue thought that the book was taken out by Xue Su from the Wang family, and she hated it for a while, and nodded: "As long as Sanniang doesn't break her word, it won't take much effort to take the book." ”
