idle mistress

Chapter 71
"I can do it myself, I have good makeup skills." Xu Weiqiu insisted on inviting people out.

After Haitang left the room, Xu Weiqiu started to work in front of the mirror.

She first found some rice paste to stick her eyelids on, the double eyelids immediately became single eyelids, and then drew on the face with a charcoal pen, and the distance between the two eyebrows was shortened in an instant. Finally, a strange arc was drawn.

Finally, put gouache on the cheeks, and then use the most exaggerated technique to draw a bloody mouth for his mouth.

After some careful preparations, Xu Weiqiu stood in front of the mirror... he couldn't even recognize the face in the bronze mirror. This is not makeup, it's just Qiao makeup.

Xu Weiqiu smiled sweetly at the bronze mirror. I am very satisfied with the makeup effect.

"Madam, are you alright?" Haitang urged outside.

"Okay, come in." Xu Weiqiu tidied up all the items on the dressing table and put them all back in the drawer.

Haitang pushed the door open and came in. Seeing her appearance, she immediately became impatient: "No, ma'am, this... this can't be done."

"What's the matter, I think it looks pretty."

"No, ma'am, hurry up, I'll make it up for you again." Haitang hurriedly wetted the towel and was about to wipe it off for her.

Just kidding, this is a masterpiece that I finally made. Xu Weiqiu naturally didn't want to let her do it, so he avoided it as soon as he turned around, and walked out the door quickly with the hem of his skirt.

Haitang was startled when she saw this, she put down her face scarf and hurriedly chased after her.

"Ma'am, listen to your servant, go back and put on your makeup again." If it wasn't for the fear of offending the master, she would have said that it would be better not to wipe off any rouge than to wipe it off.

Xu Weiqiu looked disapproving: "It's okay, I just think it looks so good-looking, besides, there is not enough time."

Haitang really couldn't screw her, so she could only walk behind her, but every time she saw the makeup on her face, she was really desperate.

She only thought that her master was from the countryside, and her aesthetics were biased, so she didn't know that he did it on purpose.

Sure enough, as Haitang expected, all the servants who saw her wife maintained a respectful appearance along the way, but when they turned their heads, they all hid their faces and laughed.

Xu Weiqiu didn't know that these people were laughing at him, but if he had this effect, he would walk with wind even more.

Soon, the master and the servant entered the Pingfu Building with the invited people.

Although everyone in the royal palace had to attend this banquet, this rhetoric is a bit watery.

As far as she knows, there are no less than 300 maids, maids, cooks, long-term workers, and nurses in the palace alone; There are three tables in the living room, and there are only five tables in total.

All the halls were already full of people, and seeing her walk in, everyone couldn't help turning their heads to pay attention to her.

Thus, Xu Weiqiu was invited into the main hall in full view.

It was only later that she learned that the royal residence is very particular about meals.

The seats in the main hall are full of serious masters, the seats in the side hall are the concubines of the prince and the prince, and the seats in the outer hall are the stewards of various fields in the palace.

The person in the main seat is not seated, and the people below must not sit down.

But she didn't know much about it at that time, so after entering the door, she found a random seat in the main hall and sat down, even the crabapples behind couldn't hold her back.

Just as Xu Weiqiu sat down, seeing everyone looking at him, he realized that he was reckless, so he smiled awkwardly, and stood up from his seat again.

All this fell into the eyes of a man in the main hall. He looked at this sister-in-law whom he had never met before and shook his head.

The rumors are true, this Shizi's wife is a village girl who doesn't even understand basic etiquette, shallow and ignorant, no wonder the godmother is so dissatisfied.

Just as he was thinking about it, the shallow and ignorant woman looked over at him, and the eyes of the two collided like this.

Catching the gaze that was sizing him up, Xu Weiqiu smiled at him, thinking of someone, he couldn't help asking: "Is this Young Master Gao?"

Gao Jijing could only nod his head.

Xu Weiqiu wanted to say something, when two people came in from the outside, it was her mother-in-law and husband.

Haitang was afraid that her master would make another mistake on this important occasion, so she stretched out her hand and tugged at her elbow to signal her to stop talking.

It wasn't until Princess Sheng and Zhao Yan went to the main seat and sat down that everyone took their seats.

Under Haitang's guidance, Xu Weiqiu came to the right side of Zhao Yan and sat down.Princess Sheng saw her face and hesitated to speak to her.

Zhao Yan on the side also noticed her makeup, and frowned. After she sat down, he turned his head to look at her again, and criticized her: "Ugly people make mischief."

Xu Weiqiu pretended not to hear this vicious comment. She looked around, but Prince Cheng still didn't appear. In the main hall, apart from Concubine Sheng and Zhao Yan, there was the second young master sitting opposite him and the two faces on his left. woman.

No one introduced her to her, and later learned from the words and deeds of several people that one was the wife of Young Master Gao, and the other was his younger sister, Zhao Yan's cousin.

Seeing no other familiar faces, Xu Weiqiu couldn't help asking: "Sister Yang, Sister Yao, why didn't they come?"

Princess Sheng heard the words, and said with an unhappy face: "They are all concubines, so there is no reason to let concubines go to the main hall for dinner."

Hearing this, Xu Weiqiu couldn't help sticking out his tongue.

Her little action fell into Zhao Yan's eyes, and it further confirmed his saying that ugly people do more tricks!
Xu Weiqiu didn't care what this man thought of her, she focused on the other man the whole time.

And it was the young master Gao who was so favored by her.

She Xu Weiqiu is a woman, and she is also an extremely stingy woman. She directly blames this troublesome uncle for her plight of not being able to leave the palace.

So he looked at him with extremely resentful eyes, until Gao Jijing's face was full of bewilderment.

At first, he thought it was his own delusion, until when he was eating, he wanted to pick up a piece of beef, and just as his hand fell towards the plate, before he could touch it, he was snatched by a pair of scorpions on the opposite side.

Gao Jijing didn't pay much attention to it once or twice, until the fourth and fifth times he knew that the sister-in-law whom he met for the first time was targeting him.

Such behavior at the dinner table showed that the woman was not only shallow and ignorant, but also rude.

Gao Jijing wanted to teach her a lesson, so he saw the right moment and aimed his chopsticks at a piece of chicken on the right side of the soup pot. Sure enough, the woman's chopsticks also stretched out. At this time, Gao Jijing's hand suddenly turned a corner.

Zhao Yan was eating, when suddenly the person on the right lost his composure and lay down, and a cup of soup was spilled out.
