Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Beauty of the Holy Product
is obviously a young girl who looks smiling and looks very kind and easy-going, but Mrs. Shi just felt an invisible sense of oppression, which made her subconsciously hide, and her heart was panicked.
Du Ruo looked at Mrs. Shi pinching her handkerchief, her fingertips were already a little white, and said to her: "Miss Shi is Madame's beloved daughter, the pearl in her palm, how can there be a mother in this world who doesn't care about her children.
If there is anything unspeakable, or a last resort, if you close the door today, Ye Duwei and I will not say a word when we leave this door.
Can Mrs. Shi still trust us? But I still hope that we can find out what weird things happened to Ling Yan? ”
Her words touched Madame Shi, and her pursed lips squirmed a few times, and she finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"Two adults, I'm ...... I didn't mean to deceive you before, but I couldn't say it in front of my master......
If he finds out, if this matter really has anything to do with my daughter's death, I'm afraid he'll be angry......"
"Don't worry, just say it, we won't be outside the stone." Ye Yuanzhou saw that Mrs. Shi's attitude was loosened, and he also spoke.
Mrs. Shi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "That red face is dew...... It is now a kind of beauty tonic that is very sought after among the female relatives of various wealthy families.
This thing is not only very expensive, it costs more than 20 pieces of silver for a small bottle, and it is not something that anyone can buy if they want to, if there is no way, there is no opportunity, let alone take silver, even take gold, and people will not sell it.
I was also introduced by a lady from another family in our county, and I finally got a few clothes. ”
"What's so special about this thing? Why are you still competing to buy it at such a ridiculously high price? Ye Yuanzhou asked.
"Adults don't know that the red face lotion can make people's skin white and tender, and the complexion is ruddy, which is more effective than any beauty supplement.
Even if she was originally just a mediocre-looking woman, after taking a few servings, she will become a beauty that makes people unable to take their eyes off!
The lady who helped us make the introduction has three daughters, all of whom are mediocre in appearance and have coarse dark skin, and they are obviously wealthy, but they are not a good family.
She also heard from others that there was such a good thing, so she went to ask for a few servings, and went home to let her three daughters drink it, and then the skin of the three daughters became fairer and more delicate.
Although the appearance is still the same as before, it has become white and tender, and it seems to have become much more pretty.
My daughter is fine with everything, except for her dark yellow complexion, which is obviously a healthy girl's family, but she always makes people feel as if her body is not very good. ”
Mrs. Shi said as tears slipped uncontrollably, and speaking of these, her feelings were also very complicated, and she was also very nervous and worried about the pain of her daughter's mysterious death, and whether all this was related to Hongyanlu.
"I thought at the time, this looks like I'm about to reach the age of kissing, if other people's daughters are eating red dew and raising themselves to be white, tender and beautiful, and my daughter's face is sallow, then there will be no matchmaker willing to help us match!"
The more she spoke, the more sad she became, and even sobbed a little: "So I moved my mind and wanted to recuperate my daughter."
But my lord didn't agree, he said that the parents of the body and skin are born as they are, how should they be, how can there be a reason to change by taking medicine!
He also said that there is no such miracle medicine in this world, which can make people change from ugly to beautiful, from black to white after eating! If so, then maybe it's something evil!
I didn't know why I was fascinated at that time, and I thought that my daughter had to eat red dew and become beautiful!
So when I saw that he didn't agree, I simply took out my dowry, and the wife of the Tuo family helped me introduce it, and secretly used the red face dew for my daughter......"
"You didn't dare to say it before, because you were afraid that Shi Yuanwai would find out and blame you?"
"It's not all because I'm afraid that he will blame, I'm afraid myself, I'm afraid that if he gets right, that red face is really not a good thing...... That...... That ......" Mrs. Shi couldn't say any more, and lowered her head again and silently wiped away her tears.
"How much did Mrs. Shi buy at the beginning? Is there anything left at home? Although he didn't dare to report his hope, Du Ruo still asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shi really nodded: "There is another serving, which I hid, it was originally my daughter who went to attend the tea tasting party that day and was going to take it when she returned home, but she was abducted halfway that day......
"Then please Mrs. Shi take the red face dew you hidden, so that I can take a look." Du Ruo took advantage of Mrs. Shi's lack of time to be sad, and hurriedly said to her.
She didn't even mean to discuss with Madame Shi, but almost used the tone of an order, which could not be refused.
This Hongyanlu is clearly the same as Pingcheng County's "Huayan Yuexiang Tea", the shopkeeper of the teahouse over there is staring closely, whether it is tea residue or tea, she can't get it in her hand, so this Hongyanlu must not be missed again.
Mrs. Shi had been so frightened by Du Ruo that she didn't dare to hide it anymore, but now she was so requested, she hurriedly responded, got up and hurried out of the guest room, and after a while, she hurried back, carefully covered the door, sat back at the table, and then took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve and handed it over carefully.
Du Ruo took the small bottle, took a small white porcelain plate originally used to hold dried fruits from the table, and carefully poured out the contents of the porcelain bottle.
According to Mrs. Shi, this is a whole unopened "Hongyanlu", more than 20 taels of silver, but it has no weight in her hand.
From the small bottle mouth, a little viscous liquid slowly flowed out, Du Ruo lightly tapped the bottle mouth, and a drop fell into the white porcelain plate, the shape is not scattered, the color is bright red and dazzling, like a clear pomegranate seed.
At the same time, a fragrance came to the face, although there was only such a drop, but Du Ruo, Ye Yuanzhou, and Mrs. Shi who were guarding the side all smelled a strong aroma.
"This ......" Ye Yuanzhou was stunned, although this viscous texture was something he had never seen before, but the color looked very familiar.
and this rushing aroma, which also made him a little uneasy for a moment.
Previously, in the mortuary room, Du Ruo smelled a fragrance that he didn't smell, and then he was drugged.
Now that the aroma is so strong that they can smell it, wouldn't that be a big deal?
