Chapter 309 Making Rouge
"Don't worry, I know." Wei Shu smiled slightly.

There aren't many things he can do for his family now, and now that he can finally help, he will do his best.

"I also got to know the garrison of Lin'an Mansion through my eldest brother." Li Xiaodao said.

Given that he is only 17 years old, he can be promoted to General Manager in an exceptional way, and his future will be boundless.

Besides, there is Yang Jinzhong behind him, and the people in the army should give some face.

So in just a few months, Li Xiaodao had already gained a firm foothold in the Linjiang Army.

"Thank you." Liu Ye'er looked at the few people and said happily.

"What are you talking about, we are all one family." Li Xiaodao said angrily.

"Brother is right, we are a family." Fat Miao'er said with a smile.

"Family!" Wei Shu and Luo Pan said in unison.

Then the five looked at each other and laughed happily.

Ever since Wei Shu came to Fucheng to go to school, Li Xiaodao went to join the army, and Compass ran a boat, Fat Miao'er felt that the family fell apart all of a sudden, without the joy of the past.

Fortunately, it didn't take long, and they gathered together in Fucheng again, and they had the warmth of home again.

Moreover, Li Xiaodao and Yang Ruyi are going to get married soon, and their family will be even more lively.

After chatting for a while, the five of them went back to the house to rest.

They still maintain the tradition of Dashi Village, Li Xiaodao, Luopan, and Wei Shu live together, Fat Miao'er and Liu Ye'er live together, and they don't live separately.

Because they like this, like this past sharing joys and sorrows.

……

The next day.

Wei Shu went to school, Li Xiaodao returned to the barracks, and Luo Pan went to Shen's firm. He was going to discuss some business matters with Shen Zhongping.

Liu Ye'er was in the medical clinic. As for Fat Miao'er, she came to the rouge shop and worked with Yang Ruyi in a room to develop a new rouge.

According to the prescription in the encyclopedia, Fat Miao'er mixed some petals and ingredients together, put them into a mortar and crushed them, and then added clean water to boil them.

"Fat Miao'er, you are so good, you can even make rouge." Yang Ruyi, who was helping at the side, praised.

"It's all from the book, and it's my first time doing it, so I don't know if it will succeed." Fat Miao'er said modestly.

"It's just that it's winter now, and it's hard to find flowers, otherwise it won't matter how many times you try." Yang Ruyi said regretfully.

These flowers were picked by Yang Ruyi from her own greenhouse. Only a big family like Yang's mansion would be willing to grow flowers in the greenhouse in winter to enjoy them.

"It's okay, let's just try to do it out of boredom. If it succeeds, I will plant a large field of flowers in the spring of next year, which will be enough for us by then." Fat Miao'er said.

The two chatted while making, and the time passed quickly without knowing it.

Two hours later.

Liu Ye'er opened the door and walked in, telling them to have lunch.

"Sister, come and take a look, does the rouge I made look good?" Fat Miao'er said excitedly.

Liu Ye'er came over, picked up the cold rouge and looked at it.

The color of the rouge is light pink, which looks extraordinarily soft, very suitable for girls.

Then Liu Ye'er dipped her finger a little, put it in front of her nose and smelled it.

"You added traditional Chinese medicine into it." Liu Ye'er said with a look of surprise.

"Yes!" Fat Miao'er nodded.

"This not only makes the color look better, but also protects the skin." Fat Miaoer explained.

After hearing this, Liu Ye'er's eyes lit up, and she praised: "My Fat Miao'er is really a little genius."

"Of course!" Fat Miao'er stood upright, with a proud expression.

"We still have to try it out to see if it hurts the skin." Liu Ye'er said.

Although Fat Miao'er knew that there would be no harm, she didn't say anything, and directly agreed to Liu Ye'er's suggestion.

So several people took the newly made rouge and smeared a piece on the arms of the owners of the two shops.

In the evening, no one felt any discomfort, and Liu Ye'er announced that Fat Miao'er's rouge was successfully made.

The success this time boosted Fat Miao'er's confidence. She spent almost every morning in the room studying rouge and gouache, and spent the afternoon reading and practicing calligraphy. She lived a very fulfilling life.

Of course, Fat Miao'er also failed sometimes, but those were all caused by the failure of the tools, which did not make her discouraged.

Moreover, Fat Miao'er also drew blueprints and asked Fanbang merchants to order a batch of colored glass products, including measuring cups, test tubes, catheters, alcohol lamps, etc.

Although the price is very expensive, Fat Miao'er doesn't feel distressed.

Because she plans to use these equipment to make perfume, if she can succeed, she will earn back ten times and a hundred times.

As an assistant, Yang Ruyi recorded every successful rouge gouache on paper, and when the flowers bloom next year, they can mass-produce them. By then, her rouge shop will definitely be booming.

In fact, Yang Ruyi has no interest in running a rouge shop, but she is very interested in developing rouge gouache, and she is more active than Fat Miaoer.

"Fat Miao'er, I gave my sister-in-law the rouge I made the day before yesterday. She likes it very much, and I can only praise you for being smart." Yang Ruyi said while recording.

"Just like it." Fat Miao'er smiled slightly.

All of this was within her expectation, that rouge was tailor-made for Xin'er, it could highlight her beauty even more, how could she not like it.

"Sister-in-law, we will return to Dashi Village in two days, will you go back with us?" Fat Miaoer asked.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, so I won't go." Yang Ruyi shook her head, feeling reluctance in her heart.

"Alright then." Fat Miao'er nodded.

The next day, Fat Miao'er and Liu Ye'er took Zhu Cui to the commercial street to buy gifts for the New Year.

Because it was a gift, there were many gifts from others, and the three of them went shopping for a long time before they bought all the presents.

Back at the medical clinic, Fat Miaoer notified the two hired men that everyone would return to Dashi Village the day after tomorrow, and the medical clinic would be closed.

Their monthly routines are sent out as usual, and they only need to come to the clinic for a check every day.

As for the back house, it was naturally handed over to Yang Ruyi to take care of it.

"Sister-in-law, goodbye, we will be back soon after the Chinese New Year." Fat Miao'er said while holding Yang Ruyi's hand.

"Okay." Yang Ruyi patted Fat Miao'er's hand, then turned her head and winked at the maid beside her.

The servant girl understood and handed over the package in her hand.

"I prepared this for Master and Mistress, please take it back for me." Yang Ruyi glanced at Li Xiaodao beside him as he said.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we will definitely bring it." Liu Ye'er on the side reached out to take it.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they bid farewell to Yang Ruyi, turned around and got into the carriage, leaving Li Xiaodao alone.

"Ruyi, wait for me, I will marry you after the new year." Li Xiaodao took Yang Ruyi's hand and said affectionately.

"Okay!" Yang Ruyi rested her head on Li Xiaodao's chest with a happy expression on her face.
