Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Chapter 8: Indigenous Mascara

Not long after this meal, Xu Zizhen claimed that he was full and left. He remembered that Mo Lier didn't sleep at all last night. Although he was sitting by the side at this moment, he was trying his best to accompany him, but his eyes were already out. Bloodshot, he looked distressed.

There are six major city gates in Suzhou Mansion, Changfeng and Xulouqi, among which Changmen is the head, and it is very prosperous. Today's dinner was early, and it's just getting dark now. Xu Zizhen wandered back all the way, looking at the road By the way, I bought a lot of things on the side of the road.

When he returned to the government office, Jin Yuxi was just about to change shifts, and when he saw Xu Zizhen came back, he invited him to have a drink with him, but Xu Zizhen politely declined, since tomorrow is his first day at work, so he had to go to bed early, Jin Yuxi was very considerate of him, smiling After a few jokes, he left.

On the opposite side of Xu Zizhen's house was an old man who was in charge of flowers and plants in the mansion, and next door was the cook in the mansion. Both of them had been busy all day, and now they had gone to bed early, and the yard was quiet.

He went back to the house, spread out the pile of things he bought on the table, and fiddled with them one by one, with a smile gradually rising from the corner of his mouth.

No matter what age, money from women and children is the best money. Xu Zizhen understands this well. He laughs not because of anything else, but because he had a girlfriend before, who majored in chemical engineering, and loves to mess around all day long. Weird things, and one day I even made a bottle of mascara by myself.

When Mo Xie talked about his family business today, Xu Zizhen had an idea. These days, even washing hair with water and saponins, how can there be any mascara?If you make this thing by yourself, it will be an absolute rarity, and the Song Dynasty is the richest dynasty in history. There are rich ladies and daughters-in-law all over the street, and you will have to roll a lot of money into your own. Pocket?

Without further ado, get to work!

The thing is very simple, just a small red clay stove, a few earthen pots, and a pack of fresh fish maw. There is no big herring sold yet. This is the most common wild crucian carp swim bladder in Taihu Lake, but it is small, but it is very sticky. .

The master Lu Ban made the earliest carpentry glue with fish maw, but in the hands of Xu Zizhen, he was able to make another fine thing.

Xu Zizhen washed the fish maw and put it into the earthen pot to boil slowly, then opened another small bag to ponder. This was what he asked Mo Xie to ask for when he came out of Mo Lier's house. A small bag was used to make hair Black powder of the oil, a small bottle of essential oil, and a few lumps of better quality pewter.

Boiling fish maw is a laborious process, people can't walk away, they have to stir it a few times from time to time to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the tank, but Xu Zizhen doesn't feel bored at all. On the other hand, Li'er must marry first.

Suddenly the window behind him creaked, and a figure came in briskly, which startled Xu Zizhen so much that he almost knocked over the pot in his hand.

"Damn... Huh? Female snitch?" Xu Zizhen took a closer look, but found that it was the masked man in black who appeared in the den of thieves last night.

The man in black glanced at the earthen pot, frowned and said, "What are you boiling? You have attracted all the wild cats within a few miles."

Xu Zizhen didn't expect her to have such a humorous side, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "Make something small, you haven't seen it before, and it turned out to be a gift for you, why, you were also attracted by this fishy smell?"

The man in black gave him an annoyed look, which immediately made Xu Zizhen's mouth dry. Perhaps it was because only her eyes were exposed on her whole face. The white eyes were so eye-catching. Mo Lier's eyes were very Big is also very beautiful, but the eyes of the woman in black are even more aura, which makes Xu Zizhen's heart fluttering for a while and it is difficult to hold back.

At this time, a smell gradually wafted from the crock, and Xu Zizhen woke up with a jolt: "Oh, it almost got mushy!" As he spoke, he hurriedly took the crock down, filtered it with a narrow-eyed big claw fence, and added Put the finely ground graphite powder into white wax and then pour in a few drops of essential oil, and stir it with a small wooden stick.

The fishy smell in the room gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a faint scent of jasmine. The man in black became more and more curious, staring at it motionlessly. After a while, Xu Zizhen put down the wooden stick and clapped his hands: "It's done!"

"What is this?" The man in black finally couldn't hold back and asked curiously.

Xu Zizhen smiled, and took a strange thing from the table. This is a simple mascara brush he made with goose feather rods and relatively hard bristles. The goose feathers are relatively thick and long, and the hollow rod can absorb liquid temporarily. I really can't find anything else that works better than this.

"Heroine, have you brought a mirror?"

The man in black didn't know what his intention was, but he still took out a small bronze mirror with a unique shape from his arms.

Xu Zizhen suddenly withdrew his smile, stared into the eyes of the man in black and said slowly in an extremely seductive tone: "This is a kind of fairy medicine that can make you beautiful." The brush is dipped in and plumped up.

"What is this..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Zizhen suddenly picked up the mascara brush and painted it on her long and dense eyelashes. The man in black was startled and tried to dodge subconsciously. Xu Zizhen shouted lightly: "Don't move!"

For some reason, the man in black really didn't dodge any more. She suddenly felt a sense of trust in Xu Zizhen, and she just stood there motionless, allowing Xu Zizhen to wipe the thing, even though she looked at it blackly. It's a little scary.

"Come, come, look up at the beams of the house, and pretend that you want to hang yourself... Hey, don't move your neck."

Xu Zizhen kept his hands on while directing, and took the opportunity to bring his face closer. Even though the man in black was covered with a silk scarf, he could still clearly feel her slightly nervous breath, with a faint Xu Zizhen couldn't help being shaken by the sweet fragrance, and with a roll of his eyes, he pretended to accidentally rub his hands on her creamy white cheeks while applying mascara.

"Tsk tsk, your skin is so tender, it turns red just by touching it...Huh? Why is your whole face turning red?"

The man in black was a little crazy, but he didn't dare to move at this moment, and he didn't know if the thing would be painted on his face if he moved, so he could only angrily said, "Is it alright?"

Xu Zizhen painted it carefully a few more times, then put down his hands and took a half step back, staring at her face with tongue-tied eyes, and suddenly yelled: "Damn it!"

The man in black was taken aback by him, and quickly picked up the mirror to take a look, but was immediately stunned by himself in the mirror.

Is this still me?Although my eyelashes are not short, how did they become so long, dense and slightly curled up?And in this way, my eyes became brighter and brighter, as Xu Zizhen said, as if they were charged with electricity.

"This……"

Xu Zizhen saw that she was so shocked that she couldn't speak, so he couldn't help saying triumphantly: "How about a heroine? Isn't this thing good? Oh, it doesn't matter if you look ugly in this way, as long as your eyes are exposed You can seduce people's souls outside." After saying this, he looked forward to it, hoping that the man in black would pull off the silk scarf and show him his face in a fit of anger.

The man in black completely ignored the meaning of his words, let out a long breath, hesitated and asked: "What is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Xu Zizhen sneered, this thing was invented hundreds of years later, how could you have seen it?Unless there is a senior of mine who traveled here before me in this era, and he must also be able to make mascara.

"This is called mascara, and you can see the effect." He kept talking, took a small porcelain bottle, filled it up, and handed it to Hei with a mascara brush. The man in clothes said with a smile, "The first bottle in the whole world is for you."

The man in black froze for a moment, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Give it to me? Really?"

Xu Zizhen said dissatisfied: "What's the truth? You are my first friend after coming to Song Dynasty."

"What about your pear girl?"

Xu Zizhen hesitated, and smiled awkwardly: "She...is my first girlfriend."

A look of amusement flashed across the eyes of the man in black, and he finally took the porcelain bottle: "That's it, thank you very much." After speaking, he held the porcelain bottle and played with it.

Xu Zizhen secretly laughed in his heart. In this day and age, it might be really difficult for any woman to refuse mascara. If she took this opportunity to build a good relationship with this heroine, at least she wouldn't be afraid of being bullied, or...hehe, no I know if she is good-looking or not.

At this moment, the man in black regained his composure, and said lightly, "Actually, I'm very curious about you."

Xu Zizhen said with a smirk: "There is a truth in this world, if a woman is curious about a man, then she has already fallen in love with that man."

The man in black was not angry either, he just glanced at him indifferently, stretched his hand out of the window sill and jumped out.

Xu Zizhen was taken aback: "Leave now? I don't know your name yet."

An ethereal voice came from a distance: "Rong Xi."

Xu Zizhen looked out the window and said with a light smile, "Tsk tsk...Rong Xi."

Not only was Rong Xi curious about him, but now even he was curious about Rong Xi, who was this girl, what she looked like, and why she always liked to wander around in the middle of the night.

That night, Xu Zizhen had a dream. The woman in the dream couldn't see her face vaguely, but she had a pair of captivating eyes, which flickered when she looked forward.

The next day after Xu Zizhen woke up, he realized that he had a nocturnal emission. He was a little bit dumbfounded because of this. In his life, he never thought that there would be any woman who could make him have a dream with just a pair of eyes.
