in the room.

"Ma'am, you're awake."

Mrs. Ning was so angry that she fainted, her whole body went soft, she blinked her eyes and sat up with the support of her grandmother.

Looking at Mama, Mrs. Ning said in a weak voice: "Mama, am I wrong?" Now, I am getting older and my body is not very good, but I have failed to teach my daughter so much. ”

"How so? Madame is still young, and there are still many things in the Taishi Mansion that you need to take care of. Mama persuaded softly.

Her lips turned pale, and Mrs. Ning shook her head gently: "Mama, don't say these words to please me." ”

Sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at the rosewood dressing bronze mirror not far away, the people inside were haggard, their faces were dull and yellow, and Mrs. Ning involuntarily touched her cheeks.

"I think back then, I was also a famous beauty......"

sighed in a low voice, and Mrs. Ning was constantly worried.

"Madame's foundation is good, as long as she takes care of it, she will definitely be able to restore her original moving appearance." Mama said, bring the decoction.

As soon as she smelled the bitter taste of the decoction, Mrs. Ning's brows furrowed, and she reached out to push it away, resisting very much.

"If you don't drink it, it's too bitter and useless."

Suddenly remembered the recipe that Hotatsuki said when he was in the Xiangbao Pavilion.

"Go get some chrysanthemums and egg whites."

Mrs. Ning got up slightly and re-combed her hair and wore hairpins under the service of her grandmother.

"Madame is planning to try the therapy that Madame Moon said?"

Mama looked at the person in the bronze mirror, and her hair was coiled neatly.

"It doesn't hurt to try, she swears by it, maybe it really works." Mrs. Ning smiled slightly: "What's more, I misunderstood her in the first place, but she did what she did for us and also saw it in Xiangbao Pavilion, she is not the kind of person who can make small moves." ”

***

Time is like water, passing quietly.

After a few days, the lard had settled and solidified, and the custom-made utensils were also sent to the Hou Mansion.

Hotaru Yue got up early in the morning, and after finishing her makeup, she couldn't wait to run to the ear room, which was the research room she had ordered Chunlan to sort out for her, and only the two of them could enter except for her.

Inside, there was only a pear blossom wooden table and a lot of cabinets for storing herbs, and the rest of the things could be kept simple.

Seeing that the custom-made utensils were inconsistent with what she was in contact with in modern times, except for the material, the rest were all in line with her requirements.

"Yes, yes, this boss's craftsmanship is really good."

Hotaru nodded in satisfaction and geared up to start.

"Chunlan, just wait outside, if necessary, I will call you at any time."

"Yes, ma'am."

Chunlan turned around and walked out of the room, carefully closing the door.

First of all, make a relatively simple cream, Firefly cut the aloe vera into small pieces and then mash it into a puree, then mix the powdered chamomile and other herbs according to the proportion, and finally add the coagulated lard and pearl powder to stir, Firefly slowed down the action, put the stirred cream on the nose and smelled it.

The taste is very light, more of the taste of aloe vera, I tried it on my hands with a little bit, the texture is delicate, slippery, and the effect is good.

However, this time she prepared relatively little, so she made up eight small boxes, and she carefully packed them.

Next up is the soap with a higher degree of difficulty.

Hotaru has only seen people do it before, but she hasn't done it herself, so I don't know if I can do it in the end.

The custom-made utensils were used at this time, she picked up a little lard, alkali, and alcohol to experiment first, first melted it, heated it over low heat, stirred it all the time to prevent it from melting, and then took peony flowers, pearl powder and other items to distribute and concoct, and finally poured the mixture into the ratio of water and alcohol to one.

When you let it stand, see if it can be saponified.

Not surprisingly, the first time I did it, it ended in failure.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just the first time you do it, and it's really weird if you do it the first time you succeed." Unable to hide the loss in her heart, Hotaru looked at the first failed handmade soap, seized the time to find the reason, and tried again.

The second production, Hotaru was noticeably more experienced, but still failed.

Third ...... Fourth ......

Hotaru kept trying again, engrossed in the experiment, and the day passed.

When she noticed that the surroundings were beginning to darken, and she could no longer see the vision in front of her, Hotaru stretched her waist and put it down for the time being.

"Chunlan!" While walking outside, Hotaru touched her stomach and felt hungry for a while: "Why does time go so fast, I feel that it is only a while, why is the sun setting." ”

looked apologetically at Chunlan, who had been guarding for a day, and seeing her rubbing her knees, Hotaru Yue hurriedly said, "Go and rest." It's good to lock it up with a lock for the time being, so that no one else can get in. ”

"How can this be done, madam, you haven't eaten yet, I'll go to the small kitchen and quickly bring the food."

Chunlan limped and prepared to go to the small kitchen, but Yingyue hurriedly grabbed her: "No need, just leave this little thing to Qingyan, just let her go." ”

"But ......"

Chunlan was not worried, Qingyan happened to pass by and heard the conversation between the two, and looked at Chunlan's legs again.

"Sister Chunlan, go and rest, you can put a hundred hearts with me here." Supporting Chunlan, after Qingyan sent Chunlan back, he turned his head and saw Firefly Yue holding the door frame and steady, and hurriedly stepped forward.

Sighing softly, Qingyan said, "Madam also said that Sister Chunlan, you don't take good care of yourself." ”

With the support of Qingyan and the maids, Hotaru returned to the room, saw that the food had been served, and picked up the chopsticks to eat.

Although lunch Chunlan was also sent in, Hotaru was busy experimenting at the time, and only ate two bites hastily, and she was so hungry that she would have long since gone.

"By the way, Qingyan, this is the cream I just made today, you can try it."

After finishing the meal, Hotaru took out the cream that had just been developed from her sleeve.

"Wow, thank you, ma'am!" Qingyan's eyes were full of surprise, he stretched out his hands to take the cream, and couldn't wait to smell it: "Wow, it smells good, like aloe vera?" ”

"Your little nose is quite smart!"

Qingyan smiled embarrassedly, hurriedly deducted it, and rubbed it on his face after rubbing the palms of his hands.

The water is moist and tender.

"This cream is so smooth and tender!" Qingyan's eyes lit up, and she looked at Firefly Moon with adoration.

"That's right." Clapping her palm, Firefly instructed: "Use this cream twice day and night, plus the formula I gave you a few days ago, within a few days, your little face will be white and tender again!" ”

"Slave gets it!" Qingyan hurriedly and carefully hid the cream in his sleeve, and said happily: "Thank you, madam!" ”

For a few days, Hotaru just got up and threw herself into the laboratory, studying how to make soap and acne cream.
