Beautiful step by step

Chapter 23

Mrs. Liu is a middle-aged woman with a slightly rich appearance, with a face like a silver plate, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and a very blessed appearance.The Liu family is a scholarly family, and there are no concubines in the back house.Mrs. Liu's parents-in-law are both present, and she has three sons and a daughter in succession, all of whom have passed the examinations. She is indeed a rare Mrs. Quanfu.

Originally born in Wei Wei, not to mention Chu Lian's sister-in-law, even if she really entered the family tree of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, she would not be able to invite Mrs. Liu as the guest of honor.But a few days ago, Chu Lian had informed all about Wu's poisoning of the daughter of the Liu family, and knelt down to plead guilty.Chu Lian studied with Master Liu since he was a child, and felt sorry for his biological mother's early death. Madam Liu always regarded him as half a son.Besides, Chu Lian and the Wu family hadn't met each other when his daughter had acne, so he can't be blamed for this.There is an injustice and a debtor. Madam Liu does not blame Chu Lian, but she really hates the instigator Wu.After hearing about Wei Wei's background and knowing that she had been framed by the Wu family many times, she held her breath and agreed.

The Wu family regards the girl from the Wei family as a thorn in the flesh?Then she just wants to flatter the girl from the Wei family!
Wei Wei keenly noticed Mrs. Liu's resentment, at first she thought she was unwilling, but after hearing the prince introduce her as "teacher's wife", she soon realized that the resentment was not aimed at her.

Seeing that Mrs. Liu was still kind to the son, Wei Wei admired her clear grievances and grievances, and her expression became a little more intimate.

"I'm sorry to trouble Madam to condescend to be the official guest of Jiji. Ah Mao was lucky to have three lives, but he was afraid. With Madam's honor and blessing, even if Ah Mao only touches a corner, it is enough for a lifetime of happiness and well-being."

Mrs. Liu originally came here to avenge Mrs. Wu, but when she saw the girl in front of her with picturesque features and a peaceful expression without the slightest bit of seductiveness, she fell in love with her three-pointedly.After she confessed her crimes in Fuli, she saw that she behaved gracefully. Although she didn't have the rules and upbringing of everyone's daughter-in-law's every move, she was self-contained and natural after shedding ingenuity. She felt that there was nothing wrong with her today.Being the guest of honor for such an outstanding girl is not considered an insult to her, thinking about her like this is very solemn.

"There's no such thing as condescension. A girl's upbringing is the most important thing, and she doesn't care about her background."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Liu winked at the maid next to her, and she prepared two gifts for being the guest of honor today.If the girl from the Wei family is mediocre, she will send an unremarkable hairpin to settle the matter.But now she is willing to give that precious one.It's not too expensive, it's just that the Fengchai is made according to the Jiji gift given to the Wu family that day, and it's more grand and the materials used are more exquisite than that day.

After listening to Mrs. Liu, Princess Nine who was standing next to King Duan nodded: "Mother and concubine also often say that the most important thing is that a girl's family is beautiful. Beauty is not just a shell, but also grandeur. Otherwise, no matter how delicate the facial features are, they will bow their waists all day long. The hunchback looks shy, and people don't look much better. I think the sister of the Wei family is very good. Today, you are a good girl, how about I give you a compliment?"

Mother and concubine... Wei Wei looked at King Duan with a strange smile, and then at the girl who looked similar to King Duan hanging on her arm, could this be the Ninth Princess?But shouldn't the princess be a goddess who waits for others to kneel and lick her coldly? Why does she only feel approachable from the girl?
Suddenly she remembered those three generations of red people she knew in her previous life, who had a prominent family background, but she herself was extremely low-key.Not all "Generation X" are addicted to pleasure and misbehavior. On the contrary, most of them rely on the favorable conditions provided by their families to enrich themselves and strive to become better people.She was like this in her previous life. She never failed in everything from Chinese studies, martial arts, etiquette, and homework since she was a child.And the elders have always taught her to respect everyone worthy of respect, even if that person is just a poor old man who is sick and bedridden.Although it is ancient times now, with the dignity of the royal family, it will only pay more attention to the upbringing of princes and daughters.Although the nine princesses are approachable, they are extraordinarily generous in their gestures. When facing Mrs. Liu, they neither lose the politeness of the juniors nor lose the confidence of the royal princess. Obviously, they are well-bred.

After thinking it over, facing the Ninth Princess, Wei Wei was neither humble nor overbearing: "Ah Mao is lucky to have His Highness praise you."

Princess Ninth made a face at King Duan, then signaled to Ah Wei, then got up and walked to Mrs. Liu: "I have heard of the scholarly fragrance of the Liu family for a long time, and I am very polite. It is the first time for me to be praised by others, and I would like to ask Madam to give some advice." two."

Mrs. Liu has always treated people who understand etiquette with courtesy.After being invited into the main room, she began to focus on the key points.The praisers are mainly to assist the honorable guests to salute, Mrs. Liu was born and married to a scholarly family, her every move is a textbook of etiquette, so it couldn't be easier to be her praiser.

After understanding it, Princess Nine thanked her again, and went to the East Chamber to watch Wei Wei put on her makeup.

Seeing Wei Wei for the first time, the nine princesses were so amazed that they could not speak coherently: "The dress specially made by Jinxiu Pavilion is really beautiful, and the makeup is really well done, it's almost as if there is no painting. No, I mean, obviously people look better, look It looks like there's no makeup on."

Xi Po next to her praised: "This is still the Wei family girl's own idea."

Wei Wei looked at the bright red dress in the mirror, the embroidery was not complicated but it was extraordinarily grand.This was sent by Yan Heng, so it was specially made by the largest embroidery workshop in central Beijing?Then he didn't know how hard it was to order it, but when it was delivered, he just said that you like it.

"Strange, I clearly smell the scent of incense powder."

Seeing Princess Ninth's curious face, Wei Wei raised the corners of her lips.Some people can be referred to as confidantes as soon as they meet, and she likes the character of the nine princesses very much.Ordering Xi Po to back down, she picked up a box of powder in front of the bronze mirror.

"That's it. The water shop thinks the color is not white enough. It's a waste material. The texture of the waste powder is rough, but I mixed some pearl powder and made a new powder."

While talking, she put a little powder on the hands of the ninth princess.

"Look, princess, it's only a little whiter and tenderer than before, but it's not too obvious. It looks like it hasn't been painted, so I call it nude makeup powder."

The nine princesses showed surprise: "Naked makeup powder, this name is appropriate."

Seeing that she likes it, Wei Wei opened the cabinet under the dressing table and took out a new box: "The powder needs to be mixed fresh to use, I only made two boxes. It is reasonable to give red envelopes to those who like it, but the palace collects rare treasures from all over the world. Ordinary things are probably not in the eyes of the princess. So, how about I write you a copy of the recipe as a red envelope?"

"I came here uninvited today, and it was a surprise to get a box of nude makeup powder. As for your prescription, you can't spread it around at will. You see, the private dishes of those aristocratic families are not hidden one by one. "

Wei Wei didn't care, the recipe was very simple, she just made it after a few days of leisure, after a few tries.If the ninth princess is interested, she will order someone to think about it after returning home; secondly, everyone knows the status of the ninth princess, even if she gets the prescription, she will not publicize it.

"This recipe is just something I figured out by chance, it's just a little ingenuity, and I don't need to cherish it with a broom."

Biting her lips, thinking of the mother and concubine who loves to dress up in the palace, the ninth princess finally nodded: "Then thank you, Ah Mao, I hit it off with Ah Mao, and you don't want to call each other a princess. My name is Yiling, You can just call me Ayi. I will accept the prescription, and tomorrow I will send someone to send you some pearls, and I will exchange it for you."

"Ayi, it sounds like another name for my aunt."

Ninth Princess pouted: "It's Ayi, not A~aunt!"

During the fight, the two quickly drew closer.Seeing that the sun was getting higher and higher, Wei Wei changed into clothes and shoes, straightened her hair, and felt that the yard was much bigger after walking out of the main room.

After taking a closer look, she also understood that the same arrangement, changing the arrangement and position under Mrs. Liu's guidance, would make it more open-minded.There were not too many people watching the ceremony, most of them were neighbors.King Duan and the Prince of Zhenbei had already avoided suspicion and left, but because Mrs. Liu was sitting in the town, all the guests sat in full dress, which added a bit of solemnity to the ceremony for no reason.

Before the incense table, Mrs. Liu looked solemn: "On the auspicious day of the month, I will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, and follow your success. Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu."

The tone of her voice is melodious and ups and downs. With her deep voice, she seems to be able to communicate with the world.Wei Wei sat on her knees and prayed three times. Near noon, her hair was pulled up high, and a hairpin and crown were inserted, and the ceremony was finally completed.

Something happened during this period, the hairpin used by Erjia was not the one prepared by Wei's mother earlier, but replaced by the more gorgeous and magnificent phoenix hairpin given by Mrs. Liu.

In just one morning, from the fright of the old lady Feng not being able to come, to the unexpected Madam Liu and the ninth princess coming together, and then becoming friends with the ninth princess, Wei Wei has become a little numb after repeated surprises.Thinking about how to give back to Mrs. Liu, after thinking and thinking, she still made a copy of the nude makeup powder recipe.

"Madam relieved Ah Mao's urgent need today. Ah Mao really doesn't know how to thank you. Although this powder doesn't make it white, it is the most effective in covering small blemishes. Madam, please don't be too polite."

Mrs. Liu had already noticed Ah Mao's makeup, thinking of her daughter suffering from acne marks, how could she dislike her.After taking it home for a try, seeing her daughter's almost normal face after putting on powder, the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.

Of course, this is something to say later, entertain Mrs. Liu and the Ninth Princess with the noodles sent by Guangyuan Building.After seeing the two off, Wei Wei took a bath again, changed into complicated and gorgeous auspicious clothes, her black hair was raised and her red lips were touched.Seeing the setting sun gradually slanting, festive drum music is heard in the distance, and the wedding procession is approaching.
