Chapter 410: Expectations

The next day, Li Zhenbao came to the floating residence at the invitation of Jiang Yixi.

She first hugged Cuncun and Yin'er and called "godson" and "goddaughter" a few times, then put them down and leaned her face to Jiang Yiyi.

He asked, "How's it going, isn't it prettier?" ”

Today's Li Zhenbao is indeed more beautiful.

Jiang Yixi looked at Li Zhenbao carefully and praised them one by one, "It seems that the eyes are bigger, the nose is higher, the face is thinner, and the lips are fuller and more moist." She was a little puzzled, "The big eyes and moist lips are easy to explain, and she used an eyebrow pencil and a cream." But what's the deal with the nose and face? ”

Li Zhenbao proudly put seven or eight boxes of fat powder paste, a few large and small puffs, and more than two dozen small brushes on the table, almost filling the table. Finally, a set of women's riding clothes and a silver jasper-encrusted plum hoop were placed aside.

These things were all prepared for Meng Xiu, designed by Li Zhenbao herself, and made in her workshop.

The nobles of this era also liked to ride horses and play kemari, and there were women's riding clothes. It is to change the clothes of the Hu people, narrow sleeves and short clothes, long pants, and long boots.

Li Zhenbao changed the popular cross-collar and round neck into a neckline, and added some modern elements to the embroidery and color matching. The decoration of the boots is not embroidery, but a row of beautiful buckles on the side, which is not only beautiful but also easy to put on and take off.

Cosmetics Li Zhenbao doesn't know much, but he has reformed the fat powder cream of this era. The makeup tools are complete, as long as she thinks of it, people can make it.

Li Zhenbao also wanted to take advantage of the peach blossom banquet to push these things out, and was looking for a model, and Jiang Yixi recommended Meng Xiu to her half a month ago.

In Li Zhenbao's view, it is not a skill to package big beauties like Meng Yue and Jiang Yixi as top beauties, and they are already famous. can package a girl like Meng Xiu into a high-profile beauty, this is a big skill.

She still can't say to outsiders, Meng Xiu was a hanger in her previous life, she was 1.75 meters tall, with good body proportions, and her appearance was medium to high, which was exactly the model she wanted.

Jiang Yixi heard Li Zhenbao say the wonders of these things, and he also liked it very much, and sent someone to invite Liu, Meng Xiu, and Huang Xin to Fushengju.

Huang Xin pointed to something on the table and asked with a smile, "Such a small brush, used for writing?" It's hard to take. ”

She picked up a small brush and gestured.

Jiang Yixi smiled, "It's for makeup." Sister Xiu sat down and asked Jumbo to set your makeup today, and she would go to the Grand Mayor's Mansion tomorrow to give you makeup. ”

"Fixing makeup" is what Jiang Yixi heard Li Zhenbao say, and it should be the words of her previous life. As the name suggests, it's about setting the makeup.

Liu and Meng Xiu knew that Li Zhenbao's aesthetics were unique. Before she was vulgar, many people called her the first ugly girl. But now, I don't dare to say that she has become a big beauty, but she is also eye-catching, more eye-catching than some beauties.

The girl brought the copper basin, and Meng Xiu cleaned her face and sat down.

Li Zhenbao first asked a mother-in-law to comb Meng Xiu's hair. This mother-in-law is specially combing Li Zhenbao's hair, and she used to comb the princess's hair in the palace. The princess left the palace and was begged by Li Zhenbao to come over.

After combing a few hairstyles, finally settle on the twisting style. I put a lot of osmanthus oil on and put on the plum hoop. Meng Xiu's hair is many and good, the hair on the top is combed, and the hair on the back naturally hangs down.

Li Zhenbao personally put on Meng Xiu's makeup. The brush, puff, and eyebrow pencil kept changing, and it took nearly three quarters of an hour.

Putting on that riding costume again, Meng Xiu seemed to have become another person. The complexion is beautiful, the beautiful eyes are longing, the sassy and heroic posture, and the red clothes are shining.

Huang Xin smiled, "Aunt Xiu is so beautiful. ”

A few girls also praised incredibly.

Liu didn't speak, and looked at his daughter Le with bright eyes.

Meng Xiu was stunned in the mirror, and couldn't react.

Li Zhenbao smiled, "These things are given to you." He said to Jiang Yixi and Huang Xin, "There are also yours." ”

Meng embroidered the sword, Huang Xin stroked the qin, and the two performed a live performance.

Li Zhenbao asked Meng Xiu to make her black hair more flowing when she danced the sword......

Huang Xin knew that Meng embroidery would be launched tomorrow, and she would not compete for the limelight. Not only should you dress low-key, but you must also find an unobtrusive place to sit.

The same is true today, Meng Xiu danced the sword in the center of the courtyard, and Huang Xin asked the girl to put the piano far away from her.

Seeing such Huang Xin, Jiang Yixi felt even more pity in his heart. Father and mother are not reliable, and at a young age, they are skilled in human affection, know how to please people, and how to avoid edges.

When Li Zhenbao was instructing Meng Xiu, Jiang Yixi whispered to Huang Xin, "When you are thirteen years old, we will plan for you, and like your mother, we will evaluate the 'four beauties' of the capital." ”

Huang Xin smiled, "I know that my uncle and aunt feel sorry for me. However, it doesn't matter if it's not the 'four beauties', it's good to be like my aunt. ”

Her mother was once known as the first beauty, but her fate was still bad.

At the beginning of noon, Zheng Tingting also came. Before tomorrow's talent show, Li Zhenbao will make up Meng Xiu in Zheng Tingting's courtyard.

Zheng Tingting also has the task of selling new riding clothes and makeup tools to the ladies and gentlemen.

Li Zhenbao's factory Jiang Yixi, Zheng Tingting, and Cui Wenjun have all joined the shares, and they also have to do something.

At the next morning, several people pointed out Meng Xiu again, and Li Zhenbao and Zheng Tingting left.

On the tenth day of the first month of March, except for Jiang Yixi's wife, the widowed Mrs. Meng San, and the pregnant grandmother Meng San, all the masters of the Chengguo Mansion went to the Yichang Eldest Princess's Mansion to participate in the peach blossom banquet.

The eldest princess of Yichang didn't sleep well at night, looking forward to Jiang Yixi bringing her children to the peach blossom banquet. She knew it was unlikely, but she always had a glimmer of hope.

Before his son left Beijing, he repeatedly told them not to disturb Jiang Yixi and not to take the initiative to go to the Chengguo Mansion.

The eldest princess felt as uncomfortable and anxious as a cat scratching. But he didn't dare to disobey the advice, for fear that his son would be angry and not return to Beijing.

After twenty years, the son finally let go of his complaints and wanted to add the capital, and he couldn't push him out anymore.

Today, He was not there, and Xie and Zheng Tingting were helping to entertain guests in the inner courtyard.

When Mrs. Meng came to the main hall with a group of juniors, the eldest princess saw that Jiang Yixi and her great-grandson and great-granddaughter really didn't come, and she was angry and disappointed, and she didn't dare to show it.

She beckoned, asked people to put Yi Ge'er into her arms, and rewarded Yi Ge'er with a set of four treasures of the study.

smiled at Mrs. Meng and said, "I don't like your great-grandson, who is beautiful and smart." Why didn't those two come? ”

Mrs. Meng said with a smile, "Cimo's daughter-in-law had two accidents at the flower banquet, and she was scared and didn't dare to come." The two children were too young to leave their mother, so they were not allowed to come. ”

The eldest princess pursed her lips and couldn't speak. At the beginning, Jiang Yixi was pushed into the lake at the peach blossom banquet, and she sent her grandmother to reprimand her, and poked her backbone for a long time.
