Five-year-old little girl: Mom has thousands of acres of material space

Chapter 44 Li Xiufang shows off

Jiang Xiaoxiao thought about it carefully on the way back. The feeling this government servant gave her was too strange and unpredictable. Could it be that he was the future male protagonist?

That's not right. Her mother-in-law is so powerful, how could the future male lead be just a small government servant?

Jiang Xiaoxiao scratched her head, damn it, she traveled through time before she finished reading that book!

She only saw the second half. At that time, the shadow of the male protagonist had not yet appeared. This government servant appeared so early, so he was definitely not the male protagonist in the original book...

Jiang Xiaoxiao was walking home with her mother. Passing by the big locust tree in the village, she saw a figure in red and green swaying around from a distance.

"Auntie, are you going to fetch water again?"

"Yes, Xiufen, why did you come out dressed like this?"

"But let's not talk about it. The material of your red clothes is really good. I'm afraid only rich people can afford it, right?"

Several women who went to carry water from Li Zheng's house surrounded Li Xiufang and looked at her.

Li Xiufang enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight. She held her chin high and proudly showed off her new clothes.

This was one of the several sets of clothes sent by the Huang family. She chose the one with the best fabric and wore it. She also wore the green headband she bought in town a few days ago.

When Jiang Xiaoxiao got closer, she could clearly see the bright red and green outfit, which made her eyes irritate.

The aesthetics of ancient people are really...

But if you look closely, you can see that the material of Li Xiufen's clothes is indeed good, but it seems that it has been stored in a box for several years. The color is not bright, it is gray, and there are countless wrinkles, which makes it look very old-fashioned.

Moreover, this set of clothes was a bit loose and did not fit Li Xiufang's malnourished fifteen-year-old body.

However, Li Xiufen not only didn't think so, she even smeared the rouge and gouache given by Sun on her face complacently before going out, just to show off her appearance.

She noticed Jiang Xiaoxiao sizing her up and raised her chin higher: "Huh, bumpkin, don't think you can make money by selling a few ice creams. I will marry into the Huang family and become the daughter of the Huang family!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao: "..."

Well, respect and blessings.

"Hmph, don't envy me!"

Not seeing the envy she wanted in Jiang Xiaoxiao's eyes, Li Xiufang added unwillingly, "The Huang family in the county is a well-known rich gentry family. They have everything at home, including ice cream and goat's milk. I will marry into his family." , you can eat as much as you want!”

While she was talking, her eyes couldn't stop looking at the freezer that Jiang Wei was carrying.

"...Well, I'm not envious." Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Li Xiufen's big red lips that opened and closed, thinking how much rouge she had put on them. They were as bright red as a female ghost who had just swallowed a child alive...

Li Xiufen had inherited Mrs. Li's big, thick lips, but now they looked like two plump sausages with rouge on them.

Look at that face again, it's as white as the whitewashed wall.

The production of cosmetics in ancient times did not have strict product quality requirements like modern times. Most of the inferior rouge and gouache in ancient times contained high lead.

Rouge gouache containing too much lead can be quickly absorbed by the skin and achieve the whitening effect that ancient people wanted, but the harm is undoubtedly huge.

Why were all the beautiful women in ancient times poor in appearance? Most of them died of lead poisoning.

In this ancient time when medical care was underdeveloped, once lead poisoning occurred, it was basically hopeless. Especially, the rouge and gouache that Sun gave to Li Xiufang was originally of such poor quality that no one would buy it.

"Hey, Xiaoxiao and your mother are going to sell ice cream again?" Several women who were looking around Li Xiufen saw the mother and daughter passing by and said hello with a smile.

Without reaching out to hit the smiling person, Jiang Xiaoxiao returned a sweet smile: "Yes, Auntie, I just came back."

"Xiaoxiao will be six years old after the Chinese New Year. Look at this little face. He's really handsome." Perhaps influenced by Li Xiufen, several women also started joking, "Xiaoxiao, have you made a reservation with any company?" Baby kiss?"

"Haha..." Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't know how to answer, so she could only laugh twice.

Li Xiufen's eyes followed everyone's words and fell on Jiang Xiaoxiao. She was wearing a simple lotus color narrow-sleeved textured coat. It was an ordinary style, but it was clean and had no patches. It was different from those around her who were used to farm work. The villagers are completely different.

Especially that little face, which is fair and clean, has delicate features, and smiles with small white teeth.

In ancient poor rural areas, even those with good looks were sallow and thin. Those with slightly better living conditions at home also became bulky and round because of the heavy burden of farm work. How could Jiang Xiaoxiao and her daughter be as slender, tall, rosy and healthy as they are? .

Li Xiufen couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy. Why did she have red lips and white teeth without makeup?
  Humph, it turns out that just like her mother, she is also a shameless vixen!

"My daughter is still too young to talk about a baby kiss." Jiang Wei replied lightly, took Jiang Xiaoxiao and left.

"Humph, what's the use of being good-looking? What's there to be proud of!"

Anyway, it was she who finally married into the Huang family and enjoyed happiness, not Jiang Xiaoxiao!
  Li Xiufen was still a little aggrieved, and the show-off mood she had when she first arrived was gone, and she went home with a twist of her butt.

And the Li family at this moment.

Mrs. Sun was hiding in the kitchen, studying the ice cream she had just bought.

She ran away before the county government officials arrived. She didn't dare to stay to watch the excitement and hurried home.

Normally, when something goes wrong with Jiang's business, she must stay and watch the excitement, but this time she sneaked out secretly. It would be bad if she went back late and was discovered by Mrs. Li!
  The ice cream was so frozen that it hadn't melted yet when I got home.

Mrs. Sun swallowed her saliva and leaned closer to smell the faint scent of milk. Could it be that this thing is made of milk?
  Is the cost too high? !
  But where can she find milk?

Old man Zhao from the neighboring village does have an old scalper, but it doesn't produce milk either...

A few days ago, she heard from people in the village that Mr. Jiang bought a dairy goat. It is estimated that the ice cream is made of goat milk.

If she wanted to imitate this ice cream, she would have to get some goat milk first...

Mrs. Sun was just wondering where to get milk when the closed kitchen door was suddenly pushed open and Li Xiufen walked in aggressively.

"S-Sister-in-law..." Mrs. Sun was caught off guard and hurriedly hid the ice cream behind her back.

But it was still a step too late. Li Xiufen saw the ice cream in her hand at a glance, and her face suddenly sank: "What are you hiding in your hand?! Take it out quickly!"

Li Xiufen had just returned home, and she was in a bad mood right now, and she lost her usual politeness to Mrs. Sun in her speech.

"No, it's nothing!" Mrs. Sun quickly denied it and quickly walked out of the kitchen, but was blocked by Li Xiufen.

"Sister-in-law, don't stop me, I have to feed the pigs!"

"You bought that damn girl's ice cream, didn't you?"
