Chapter Seventy-One: Marriage
Wind Yin smiled as he slowly walked over from a distance.
"What the hell are you going to do to put on such a big battle?"
Wu Jifeng sat down beside her, raised his hand and took off her mask, obviously there was bitterness in his eyes, but he still smiled, cleared his throat and pretended to be mysterious: "Uncle, I am afraid that my craft will be stolen and learned!"
As he spoke, he took out an elongated box from his bosom and opened it to take out a wolf pen.
Feng Yin looked at the colorful boxes on the table, looked at the wolf pen, and said in surprise: "Uncle, you can't ...... Are you going to paint here?"
Wu Jifeng felt that her expression at the moment was really interesting, and couldn't help but want to tease her, nodded and said, "Isn't it?"
Feng Yin stretched out his finger and pointed to the boxes, and said in even more surprise: "Use...... These?"
Wu Jifeng took his cup of tea, dipped the pen into the wet, squeezed the water along the edge of the cup, nodded and said, "It's all good colors." β
Feng Yin took a box and opened it, looking at the crimson grease and falling into deep thought.
In the night market, painting with rouge gouache, Feng Yin's brain was a little confused for a while, and I really couldn't figure out how the uncle came up with this idea.
Could it be that this is a gift?
She looked left and right again, and wondered, "What about the drawing paper, why isn't it?"
Wu Jifeng looked at her, smiled and didn't speak.
He took a silver box about twice the size of the rouge box and a silver spoon from the plate on the table and put it in his hand, took the rouge in Feng Yin's hand, scooped out a spoonful of cream with a silver spoon and put it in the empty box and mixed well, and then took two boxes of different colors one after another, took a spoonful of cream in turn and put it in the silver box and mixed well, and then took some water with the silver spoon, poured it into the box and mixed well with the three-color rouge.
The wolf was dipped in the box, Wu Jifeng raised the pen in front of Feng Yin's eyes, and asked, "How, do you like this color?"
Feng Yin looked carefully, the red color was bright but not demonic, thick but not strong, very good-looking, so he nodded.
"If you adorn the forehead of Princess Shouyang, the six palaces will compete to learn plum makeup. β
"Mei makeup?" Feng Yin looked up at him and exclaimed, "Are you going to ......?"
Wu Jifeng's left thumb stroked Feng Yin's forehead and said, "Uncle gave you a plum blossom, okay?"
Seeing that Feng Yin didn't answer, he laughed and said, "Uncle promises, it must be good-looking." β
Feng Yin couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, but it was just sweet and sour, bubbling for a while.
She finally burst into a smile, leaned her face forward slightly, and said, "If it's not good-looking, I'll draw one on your forehead too!"
Wu Jifeng let out a long "oh" sound, and the pen lightly dipped the rouge and touched the center of the wind and eyebrows.
It's a little cold, it's a little itchy, the wind is smiling with a soft neck, and her eyes don't stop blinking.
Wu Jifeng tapped the top of her head with the pen and said, "If you move again, don't cry when you paint!"
Wind groaned and closed her eyes with a snort.
Plum blossom five petals, petals fragrant.
Wu Jifeng carefully sketched the outline, carefully applying the color.
"Uncle, is this 'plum blossom makeup' famous?"
Wu Jifeng still stared at the petals carefully, and said: "Princess Shouyang, the daughter of Emperor Wen, lies under the eaves of Hanzhang every day, and the plum blossoms fall on the princess's forehead, becoming five flowers, which can not be brushed away, and the queen stays there, and there is plum blossom makeup since then." Later, the plum blossom makeup spread to the people, and the women of the eunuchs and the kabuki dancers of the city all vied to imitate it, and the spread became more and more widespread, and the plum blossom makeup became a long-lasting beauty makeup for the big circumference. β
Feng Yin obviously hadn't heard of this allusion, so she asked, "Who is Princess Shouyang?"
"The youngest daughter of the first emperor, although she is not a descendant, but she is talented and good-looking, and she is deeply favored by the emperor and queen at a young age. β
Feng Yin opened his eyes and said, "Wen Shuo told me about the excerpts, which talked about many princesses and princes of the Great Zhou, why did she never mention her name?"
Wu Jifeng thought of the long-standing rumor, and couldn't help but pause, before he said: "After the collapse of the first emperor, Princess Shouyang's biological mother, Concubine Pian, was overly sad and wanted to follow the first emperor, and was saved by the servants several times in thrills. Later, Princess Shouyang couldn't kneel down for a long time on a snowy night, and forced her life to persuade the poor concubine to dispel the idea of suicide. But the pity of the concubine missed the first emperor has not changed, so she asked the queen to leave the palace for the first emperor to guard the soul for life, the queen felt that her feelings were true, so she built a Taoist temple in the mountains twenty miles outside the tomb of the first emperor, for the concubine to live. Princess Shouyang is benevolent and filial by nature, in order to take care of her mother, she also asked for an order to accompany her, the queen was approved, and the princess saw through the red dust after entering the view, escaped into the door, and never returned to the palace. β
Listening to the wind, he couldn't help but sigh.
Wu Jifeng said again: "Princess Shouyang is probably the same age as me, so many years have passed, she has long been away from the palace wall, so it is reasonable that you haven't heard her story." β
Feng groaned "um", and said: "However, probably this princess's reputation is excellent, after so many years, there are still people who love her plum blossom makeup." β
Gently sliding the last stroke, Wu Jifeng smiled and said: "This is not bad, over the years, there are still many places to worship Princess Shouyang as the 'God of Flowers' and build a flower temple to worship, which shows that the princess is very popular with the people." He put down his pen, flicked his index finger lightly over the tip of his nose, and called, "All right, open your eyes." β
Feng Yin opened his eyes with a smile, reached out to take the bronze mirror on the table, and smiled even happier when he took a photo, and said: "In the ice and snow forest, this body is different from peach and plum mixed with fragrant dust. β
Wu Jifeng gently swiped the pen in the cup and said, "Miss, do you still like it?"
Feng Yin put down the mirror, smiled at him, nodded vigorously, and said, "I like it, I like it so much." β
Wu Jifeng put down the pen, took two boxes and a silver tweezer, opened the first box lid and picked out three small white spars with silver tweezers, opened the second box lid, dipped the side of the spar in the white slime in the box, and then raised his hand and gently pasted it on the stamen of the plum blossom between Feng Yin's eyebrows.
The three hedrons are pure and flawless, shining brightly, complementing each other with their bright red petals.
Wu Jifeng took the mirror to Feng Yin and said, "In this way, it is different from others." β
Feng Yin looked left and right, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, so he said, "Uncle, apart from plum blossoms, do you paint anything else?"
Wu Jifeng saw that she was quite interested, so he took out the wolf pen that was put in the box and asked, "What else do you want to draw?"
"Banyan flower," Feng Yin said as he reached out to the corner of his eye on the right side, "I want to draw a banyan flower here." β
Wu Jifeng remembered that when she ran away, he used a banyan tree to coax her, and couldn't help laughing, "That flower matches your eyes." β
Feng Yin nodded, his face full of anticipation.
Wu Jifeng took an empty box and a few boxes of cream and began to mix colors, and said while adjusting: "Why do you like this flower?"
Feng Yin thought for a while and said, "The first time I saw it, I only thought it was beautiful; Later, I read from the book that the banyan tree is also called 'Hehuan', so I thought the name was also good; and later, Wen Shuo told me that Hehuan can be used for ornamentation, and can also be used as medicinal herbs, which can calm the five organs, and the mind, and the color, and I think it is very useful, so I like it more." β
Wu Jifeng smiled and added another drop of water to the blended cream.
"I had been hoping that the tree in my yard would bloom, but unfortunately, I never waited. β
Wu Jifeng's fingers trembled, and he said, "That one is not good, Uncle will give you a good one." β
Feng Yin looked at his expression, hurriedly changed the topic, pointed to the box and said, "It's this color, it's not good if it's lighter." β
Wu Jifeng dipped his pen lightly, and Feng Yin closed his eyes.
Favorite flowers, between the leaves and branches, swaying because of the wind.
Draw the pen from the inside and bottom of the right eye, outline a faint cluster of red tassels, spread out obliquely upward, bloom to both sides at the end of the eye, stretch diagonally upward, and meet the tail of the eyebrows.
"Open your eyes. β
Feng Yin opened her eyes when she heard the sound, Wu Jifeng gently poked the tip into the tail of her eyes, and with a faint stroke, she fainted a light red, which reflected the acacia. As if it wasn't enough to do this, Wu Jifeng dizzed two more strokes on the eyebrows on both sides of her before he breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and nodded.
The forehead contains plum blossoms, and the eyes carry the acacia, which is extremely beautiful.
Feng Yin immediately looked in the mirror and couldn't help but admire: "It's really good-looking, not inferior to 'plum blossom makeup' at all." β
Wu Jifeng put away the wolf at this time, and boasted to himself: "My craftsmanship is unique in Shawu Town, and no one can compare with it." β
Feng Yin nodded and agreed, "I like this gift very much. β
"In addition to this, there is also a gift. β
Feng Yin looked at another tray full of various hairpins and said, "Do you want to choose one of them?"
Wu Jifeng also looked over, his eyes suddenly dimmed, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "Originally, I didn't choose which one to choose, I wanted you to pick it yourself." β
He pushed the tray over to Wind Yin and said, "Which one do you like?"
Those hairpins are very diverse, just a glance over, Feng Yin can see bone, stone, wood, jade, copper, gold, ivory and other materials, and some of them are not recognized by themselves, large and small, dozens of pieces, filled the entire tray.
Feng Yin couldn't help but hesitate, this is inevitably too much, if it is just a gift, it is too grand.
Wu Jifeng didn't urge, just looked at her, and said softly after a while: "These are the pipes." β
"Huh?" the wind asked, puzzled, "what do you do, is there anything exquisite?"
Wu Jifeng looked at her, his eyes trembled, and he was silent for a while before replying: "A woman is allowed to marry, and she is courteous and praised." As he spoke, he pulled out a smile as best he could, and said, "Tonight, I want to bow for you." β
"Lu Li?" Feng Yin was a little stunned for a while, and it took a long time to react before those two words jumped out of his mind, "Xu marry." β
"Bang, bang, bangγ......" Something was quietly burning in her mind, and she connected the causes and consequences between the lightning and flint, it turned out that the one who wanted to go by himself was actually going to marry herself.
She didn't know how to open her mouth, but she heard her own voice ringing, as if she was a little self-deprecating, "Who is it, will anyone be willing to marry me?"
Wu Jifeng was a little surprised, Wen Shuo had never shown his heart?
In this way, he couldn't judge whether Feng Yin could accept it, and hesitated for a while before speaking, "It's Wen Shuo, he said, he wants to marry you." β
