Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 161 Preparation
After the two people have roughly discussed the wedding and life after marriage, they can drink tea and chat for a while.

After chatting with Jiang Zhixia for a while, Chu Tiankuo said goodbye and left.

After he left, when he returned home, he told his father about continuing the ceremony.

"Heh, you really got tricked?"

When Chu Xiong saw that Chu Tiankuo's face was flushed and he came back in a good mood, he knew that the matter was done.

"Father, there is no cheating. I am asking for marriage seriously."

Chu Tiankuo said helplessly.Although he looked helpless on the surface, he was still a little happy in his heart.

It seemed that his father was also busy because of his marriage.It's much better than his father's distraught look before.

"Okay, okay. What do you need Dad to do?" Chu Xiong said dotingly.

His beloved wife has gone, and now he only has such a son.For his son's happiness, he is willing to do anything.

"I need Dad to be my backbone." Chu Tiankuo said straightforwardly.

Must keep dad busy.When I'm busy, I won't think about it wildly, and I can be a little more energetic that way.

When Chu Xiong heard that Chu Tiankuo asked him to be the backbone, he laughed again, and just kept nodding his head.

"Father has to be busy. Not only must he take a good rest, but he must come out in good spirits when it comes time to accept the collection and give the gift book. He also needs to be the one who decides for me, see what I did wrong, and give timely pointers. Moreover, I There are still some things that need to be prepared.”

While acting like a baby with his father, Chu Tiankuo thought of Jiang Zhixia's attitude, and said thoughtfully.

"Okay, then I'll wait to come out and drink my daughter-in-law's tea."

After listening to Chu Tiankuo's words with a smile, Chu Xiong stood up and walked slowly to the backyard.

Chu Tiankuo looked at Chu Xiong's once tall and stalwart figure, but now he was bent over, hunched over, and with those empty cuffs, and felt sore in his heart.

To serve the country and fight on the battlefield; death is not a pity to be shrouded in horse leather.

However, he is now a man with a family.

August 26, good luck.

Early in the morning, Jiang Zhixia was dragged up by Aunt Zhang, Xiaoman and Xing Ruolan.

"Girl, today is a very happy day for Na Zheng. You can't sleep in late. Mrs. Lin may come over at any time."

Aunt Zhang beamed and said to the sleepy Jiang Zhixia.

A few days ago, the girl had a heart-to-heart talk with their family.Said that she was going to marry Uncle Chu.Let them discuss what their family thinks.

The girl said that no matter if she wanted to get rid of the contract, live in this small house, or follow her, she could ask for it.

The three of them didn't discuss it at that time, and directly said in unison that they were willing to follow the girl.

How happy these days are.

It is said that freedom is good, and no master holds the power of life and death.

That's because there is no good master.

Now, following the girl, I don't have to worry about food and drink, I'm not afraid of severe cold and heat, and I don't worry about everything.These days are much better than those in the village.

"Isn't it too early?"

Jiang Zhixia resisted the urge to yawn, and looked at the clock beside the bed, it was only 06:30. . . . . .

"It's not early, it's not early. The old slave has inquired about it. People say that when accepting Zheng, they have to dress up. Besides, if there are other girls with elders, there is no need for the girl to do anything. But, the girl can only do it by herself." A person, even if he doesn't show up, still needs to take care of some things. After all, Mrs. Lin is a guest."

Aunt Zhang looked at Jiang Zhixia and said lovingly.

It would be nice if the girl had a brother or sister.It's a pity that both parents died and there are no relatives.

However, it will be better if my uncle will take care of her in the future.

Jiang Zhixia had no choice but to obey them, get up, wash and change clothes.

After breakfast, Jiang Zhixia was dragged by the two little girls to rinse his mouth and wash his face again.

After everything was cleaned, Jiang Zhixia was dragged by Xing Ruolan and sat in front of the dressing table.

When Jiang Zhixia finished applying the moisturizer, she saw Xing Ruolan holding a box of makeup powder and wanted to apply it on her.

"No. You don't need this." Jiang Zhixia hastily refused.

"Girl, this is the best rouge powder in the Beauty Room."

Seeing Jiang Zhixia's resistance, Xing Ruolan quickly explained.

It was only after she came that she realized that the girl had never worn makeup all this time.

When Jiang Zhixia was in the palace, the Shangyi Bureau would distribute rouge and gouache on a monthly basis as usual.However, there are many women in the palace, and they like rouge and gouache the most.

Jiang Zhixia, as a rough envoy, usually doesn't need to meet nobles, so a lot of things are withheld in this regard.

However, when Jiang Zhixia learned that the makeup powder distributed in the palace was made of lead powder and the lip balm was made of cinnabar, he was very glad that as a rough envoy, he didn't have to wear makeup all day long.

Lead and mercury are both heavy metals. How much does the body have to absorb if such things are painted on the face and mouth all day long?
If things go on like this, it is easy to be chronically poisoned.

No wonder people say that beauty is unlucky.Not to mention anything else, just using these skin care products will shorten your life.

After leaving the palace, Jiang Zhixia didn't know how to make skin care products, so she went to the rouge shop and only bought moisturizing cream.

On weekdays, after she washes her face with rice washing water, she only needs to apply face cream again.

This time, because of accepting the ceremony, everyone attached great importance to it.Not only did he call the embroiderer from Moon Shadow Workshop to come over and make new clothes, but he also made a lot of lists for purchase.

Jiang Zhixia's heart was set on the wine making place on Zhuangzi, so he just glanced at the list briefly, and didn't notice the item of rouge and gouache, so he paid the money to buy it.

If she saw rouge and gouache, she would definitely not let her buy it.

Although it is said that everything is bought, it cannot be wasted.However, poisonous things must not be used.

"No, don't. There is lead in this makeup powder, and cinnabar in the lip balm. These two things are not good for people's health. Others such as face cream, rouge, and eyebrow makeup, you just use them. Don't use it anymore." Jiang Zhixia instructed the two girls.

"However, the current makeup powder and lipstick are like this. If you don't wear makeup, your complexion won't be very good."

Xing Ruolan said in embarrassment.

This beauty shop opened on Sheng'an Street in Nanfang, but it is one of the most famous rouge shops in the capital.

"Now it's good for a while, but it's not good for a long time. I can't control other people. You have to listen to me, this makeup powder and lipstick must never be used."

Jiang Zhixia knows that the skin care products sold in shops outside now generally contain this ingredient.

The makeup powder added with lead is delicate and white, and the makeup is also docile.

The mouth fat with cinnabar is bright red.After applying it, it is bright and dazzling.

Therefore, no matter you are a lady or Xiaojiabiyu, for the sake of beauty, they all love to buy these rouge and gouache.

But other people, Jiang Zhixia can't take care of them, he still has to take care of his own people.

Seeing Jiang Zhixia's serious look, Xing Ruolan and He Xiaoman nodded in agreement.

The skillful Xing Ruolan drew Jiang Zhixia's eyebrows with eyebrows, and lightly tapped her cheeks with rouge.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhixia's lips were pink even without painting.It doesn't look bad either.

Jiang Zhixia changed into a newly made dress under the wait of the two girls.

So everything is ready, just waiting for someone to collect the levy.
