Listening to Qi Zhen's words, Lian Boyuan's eyes suddenly turned red, he lowered his head and sniffed, and he couldn't hold back his tears, and Lian Zhongqi was young and not as able to bear it as his brother.

At this moment, the mist in the child's eyes continued to accumulate, and after a while, he began to drop Jin Doudou, deflated his mouth, Lian Zhongqi's face was flushed, and he was crying until he hiccuped, looking ten out of ten wronged.

Seeing this, Qi Zhen shook her head helplessly, stood up, walked to Lian Boyuan's side, first touched the child's furry head, and then hugged Lian Zhongqi in her arms.

After these months of eating and drinking, Lian Zhongqi is a lot heavier than before, although she is still a little shorter than an ordinary six-year-old child, but her body is also healthy, and she has not had any illness recently, and she is very lively.

Besides, Qi Zhen heard Lian Su say that these two children are good materials for reading, in the past, Lian Su was at home, and he could teach the two of them to read and learn words, but now that Lian Su is gone, although he knows a few words, he can never be a master, otherwise if he misses the pair of brothers of the Lian family, Qi Zhen is really afraid that Lian Jun will die blindly, and crawls up from the ground to find her in the middle of the night.

Being held in his mother's arms, Lian Zhongqi only felt very relieved, and smelled a faint fragrance of osmanthus between his nose, which smelled good, which reminded him of the osmanthus candy placed in his mother's room, and the sweet smell seemed to have been diffused into his heart.

This six-year-old doll was very greedy, her eyes widened, and there was constant saliva secretion in her mouth, and she soon stopped crying, and her little hand pulled Qi Zhen's neckline, and said dryly:

"Mother, Zhongqi wants to eat sugar."

Qi Zhen was reluctant to let the child cry, if she could coax the baby with a piece of osmanthus candy, she was naturally willing.

Putting the baby on the stool, Qi Hao turned around and went back to his room, took out the osmanthus candy that was placed in the cabinet and picked up with layers of oiled paper, and took out two thumb-sized ones from it, and then returned to the kitchen.

gave one to each of the two brothers, because Qi Zhen has always controlled the amount of sugar that the two of them eat, so osmanthus candy has become a rare good thing in the hearts of the brothers, and they can't care about anything else at the moment, so they eat sugar with their cheeks.

Looking at the quiet appearance of the two brothers, Qi Zhen pondered in her heart, she knew that she could no longer live in Dawan Village, and she had to move to the capital as soon as possible.

There are not many families in Dawan Village who study at all, and only the Lian family is good at learning, and the rest are also farmers, who use the strength of the whole family to provide a son to study, but they have no great success, not only did they not gain fame, but they all seemed to be stupid in reading, shouting all day long, 'There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book'.

Qi Zhen naturally didn't dare to let those two children teach, and she had to send these two children to the school, so the matter of moving to the capital must be put on the agenda.

With this matter in her heart, Qi Zhen's face became a little more solemn, but fortunately, these two brothers are obedient and sensible, and they don't dare to disturb her when they see that their mother is obviously on their minds.

Before Lian Su left, he left behind a hundred taels of silver, which could not buy a shop in the capital, but if it was placed in Dawan Village, it would be more than enough to buy a mountain.

If Qi Zhen wants to make good rouge water and grease, she must have enough raw materials, and it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, if there are no high-quality flowers, she will not be able to refine flower oil at all, let alone use flower oil to make grease.

Although she has a 'primer' in her hand, the taste of the 'primer' is extremely poor, and even if this strange smell of fat is very effective, it is difficult to sell it at a high price.

However, the matter of buying a mountain naturally cannot be rushed, and it must be carefully considered before it can be started, otherwise if it is slaughtered by the village chief's family, for a woman like Qi Zhen, who regards wealth as her life, it is really like cutting meat with a sharp dagger.

In the morning, Lian Boyuan took Lian Zhongqi to practice calligraphy in the room, the Lian family gave birth to not many pens and papers, Qi Zhen was reluctant to let the two little dolls waste pen and ink, and made a sand table before the winter, and let them use wooden sticks to compare on the sand table.

I thought that after entering the capital, I would earn money and buy some pen, ink, paper, and inkstones for the two brothers.

Qi Zhen walked to the kitchen, scooped out a scoop of polished rice from the rice jar with a wooden scoop, put the polished rice on the stone mill, and then added several kinds of dried herbs to the stone mill, including angelica, angelica, licorice, and sandalwood.

These four medicinal materials have the effect of beautifying and softening the skin, because the sandalwood is very valuable, Qi Zhen did not dare to add more, only put a little finger-sized section into the stone mill, saving waste.

A few days ago, Qi Zhen bought a lot of walnut kernels for the brothers Lian Boyuan and Lian Zhongqi, and put a handful of them in at the moment, and then added a handful of mung beans, which is all the ingredients of Yurong powder.

In her previous life, after the old eunuch married Qi Zhen, she was tortured night and night, and she was disgusted with her rough skin, and the touch on her hands was not good.

It must be known that Qi Zhen is not a pampered lady in a wealthy family, even if she is born with a good foundation, but she does her work every day and neglects to maintain it, and her skin can be delicate and tender.

The old eunuch also knew this, so he racked his brains and pondered for seven or eight months before he came up with the recipe of Yurong powder.

This recipe was not available in the past, after all, what the old eunuch has been serving is the delicate and expensive concubine Niangniang in the palace, the concubine Niangniang's skin is good, otherwise she will not win the favor of His Majesty, the pepper room is the only favor, so the remaining concubines in the palace are jealous and red-eyed, so the old eunuch naturally can't use the recipe that makes the skin tender.

Qi Zhen didn't dare to use the formula that the old eunuch knew, calculate the time, the concubine Niangniang in the palace has now been beaten into the cold palace, and the old eunuch should also escape from the palace.

The so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, even if the old eunuch doesn't have much silver taels in his hands, and he is an old person next to the concubine, he must be low-key and low-key, but his means are not something that Qi Zhen, a small village woman, can afford, so Qi Zhen only dares to use the recipe that the old eunuch pondered in the later stage, and the province is hated by the eunuch who has broken his roots.

The stone mill of the Lian family is not difficult to push, even if Qi Zhen's strength is not as good as that of ordinary women working in the field, but he can still push the stone mill up a few laps.

Seeing that these ingredients of Yurong powder turned into snow-white powder under continuous grinding, mixed with rice noodles, and became very soft and obedient, the joy flashed in her eyes, and she bit her lip lightly, obviously very happy.

The finer this jade powder is, the better, so Qi Zhen didn't care about the tiredness of his body, and pushed it round and round, and it didn't take long for him to be covered in sweat.

The sweat that came out wet the belly pocket that was close to the body, and it was sticky, but Qi Hao didn't care, wiped her forehead with her cuffs, as if she was tired, and continued to move.

After about half an hour, these materials had become as delicate as snow, to the extent that Qi Hao was satisfied, and she walked into the room, took a small porcelain jar, and swept the jade powder from the stone grinding into the porcelain jar little by little with a delicate brush.

After taking a bath at night, Qi Zhen wiped the water traces on her body with a muslin cloth, applied perfume and grease, walked to the bronze mirror, opened the porcelain jar filled with jade powder, dipped her hand in the jade powder, and spread layer after layer on her body and face, especially the rough places of elbows and knees.

In all fairness, the taste of Yurong powder is not good, revealing a bitter taste of medicinal herbs, but it is really much stronger than the 'introduction' that Qi Zhen made before, the more the 'introduction' is released, the stronger the effect, but the taste also becomes very pungent, and you have to cover it with a lot of flower juice to endure the smell.

After applying the jade powder, Qi Zhen went to bed to rest, in fact, this jade powder can not only be used at night, but also can be used by women during the day to apply makeup, but Qi Zhen doesn't have to go out recently, plus her little face is white and moist, naturally there is no need to apply grease and powder.

After all, no matter how good the fat powder is, it is impossible to completely integrate with the original meat color, and it is not conformable.

If you apply lead powder once or twice to your face, you won't have any problems, but over time, it will make your skin ulcerate and red, and ruin your entire face.

In her previous life, Qi Zhen had seen a lot of female dependents whose faces had been ruined by lead powder, and even the fat powder shop opened by the old eunuch had a lot of lead powder, but fortunately there was no big turmoil.

Later, the old eunuch was afraid that something would happen, and he didn't dare to add lead powder to the fat powder, so he escaped, and with the memories and experience of his previous life, Qi Zhen naturally avoided lead powder.

Lying on the bed tossing and turning, I don't know if it was because Lian Su left, Qi Zhen couldn't sleep for a while, and only fell asleep in a daze after the unitary time.

When Qi Zhen woke up on the second day, a lot of the jade powder on his face was stuck to a thick hair, and more was rubbed on his dirty clothes.

In her previous life, Qi Zhen had used Yurong powder many times, because this thing was not easy to take care of, and she couldn't change the quilt from time to time, so the dirty clothes on her body had to be worn carefully, otherwise she would be the one who suffered.

There were two pieces of muslin hanging dry and wet on the wooden shelf in the room, Qi Hao took the dry cotton cloth, dusted off the excess jade powder on his body, reached out and touched it, the skin was really a little more delicate than before, although it was not obvious, but if it was a long time, this jade powder would definitely achieve an extremely obvious effect.

took a picture of the bronze mirror, looking at the woman who was as beautiful as a spring flower inside, Qi Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, poured a little rouge water into the palm of her hand with a white porcelain bottle, dipped her fingertips, and carefully applied it to her lips.

Her lips were already a little light, and if she didn't apply rouge, she would look very pale and bloodless.

After cleaning up, after hastily having some breakfast, Qi Zhen wrapped herself in a heavy cotton jacket, took a bottle of rouge water and stuffed it into her arms, and went to Zheng Sanniang's shop.
