The first legitimate son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 152: Little lady, you are so polite!
After lunch, Cheng Yaojin drank a one-pound bottle of Wuliangye and drank it himself, because Cheng Yaojin thought Wuliangye was still the same low-alcohol wine as before.

Looking at his father who was drunk by him, Cheng Chu said silently: "My father is too greedy. Just because this wine is delicious, he won't even give me a greedy sip, and he will drink it himself. What’s this thing called?”

Cui Xian shook her head and smiled wryly: "Chu Mo, I don't know why your father likes this wine so much, but I'll be the master for a while, you take a bottle of the rest of An'er's wine!"

"Really!" Cheng Chumo said happily, "Then thank you, Auntie!"

At this time, Cui Xian looked at Li An with a smile and said: "An'er, although you said you would give all these wines to your father, my mother cannot let you do this. After all, brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Your These wines are not ordinary at first glance. Your father and mother must not just take them away with peace of mind.

In this way, I still have three shops in Dongshi. Of course, their value cannot be compared with your wine. However, my father and I have some thoughts, so we must not refuse them. "

Li An smiled bitterly. The three shops in the east city of Chang'an City are expensive but not marketable. Compared with his ten bottles of Wuliangye, the three shops in the east city of Chang'an City are incomparable. It's not enough to do without them now. .

Li An could only smile and nod: "I dare not refuse this gift from my elders, but mother, I also have something to give you!"

"You have something for me?" Cui Xian looked at Li An curiously and asked, "What is it?"

"Hair dye." Li An knew that Cui Xian didn't understand, so Li An continued to explain to Cui Xian: "It is a thing that can dye the white hair in the hair into black hair."

"You're talking about black beans." Cui Xian asked tentatively.

"The Classic of Filial Piety" once said, "The hair and skin of the body are received from parents and do not dare to be damaged. This is the beginning of filial piety."

The ancient people obeyed this rule of filial piety very much, and a woman with long black and beautiful hair has been regarded as a symbol of women's beauty in thousands of years of Chinese civilization.

In the poem "Looking at Beauty" written by Shi Jianwu, a poet from the Tang Dynasty, he once praised a woman with long hair: "The eyes are dotted with paint, and the temples are surrounded by cicadas, and the white snow covers the chest." Long hair can greatly enhance and brighten a woman.

So in ancient times, there were many hair dyeing techniques, and the black bean technique Cui Xian just mentioned is one of them.

Hair dye using black beans as raw material requires soaking the black beans in vinegar for two days, then boiling the soaked black beans, and finally filtering out some excess impurities, leaving some black paste that can be used for hair dyeing.

Or use raspberries, directly make the raspberries into a paste and apply it on the white hair.

Black beans and raspberries not only have the same effect, but as two raw materials that can be seen everywhere, the prices in pharmacies are very low.Even if you don’t want to go to the drugstore to buy them, raspberries grow in abundance in the fields and streets.

However, these cheap and commonly used methods also have fatal shortcomings, that is, they do not last long. The effect will be lost in one, two or even half a day. In this case, it would be too troublesome. Do I have to dye it twice a day?

Li An looked at Cui Xian with a smile: "Mother, do you know if the black bean hair dye can last for one day or two days?"

"It doesn't take that long, basically half a day, and then it will lose color." Cui Xian shook her head slightly. If the black bean hair dye can last for seven days, then Cui Xian will not have gray hair. Black bean hair dye is too troublesome. "It turns out that it will be half a day later." Li An smiled and said: "Mom, why not try my child's hair dye? One dyeing can last for at least a month, and it will also nourish my mother's black hair and make it full of fragrance. , the more I wash it, the darker it becomes."

"Really?" Cui Xian is a little unbelievable. There is no woman who doesn't love beauty. As she gets older, many women miss their black hair before. Now there is such a magical hair dye, you say How could Cui Xian not be shocked?
"It's true. Otherwise, mother can take advantage of daddy's break and ask Yiyi to help you dye it. It will be fine soon. It will be fine in about half an hour."

After Li An finished speaking, Cui Xian also became eager to try.

After a while, Liu Yiyi came over and took out the hair dye to help Cui Xian start dyeing her hair. Cui Xian also asked her maid to learn from the side. In the future, she would need her maid to help her dye her hair when she returned.

Cheng Yaojin slept until about three o'clock in the afternoon. When he got up, he saw a woman with flowing hair sitting in front of him. This woman's hair was black and shiny, smooth and shiny, and there was a breeze. As soon as I blew it, the fragrance of flowers actually overflowed.

For a moment, Cheng Yaojin took advantage of his drunkenness and a little bit of wanderlust to get excited. Following the example of those scholars, Cheng Yaojin said: "May I ask who this lady is? It's polite to be polite."

But after Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, a chuckle came, and Cui Xian turned around: "Mr. Lang, I am not a young lady, I am your wife."

"Madam.?" Cheng Yaojin was horrified, and then he immediately touched Cui Xian's black and beautiful hair and screamed: "How can your hair be so black? Madam, I remember that your hair should have some white threads." , isn’t it?”

Cui Xian looked at the excited expression of her husband caressing her hair, and replied with a slight smile: "This is An'er, who gave me a special hair dye to dye my hair. This hair dye is comparable to black beans and raspberries." Much more useful.

The black bean and raspberry hair dye can last up to half a day, but this hair dye can last as long as a month. An'er gave me a few bottles and my hair will stay like this from now on. "

"That's it." Cheng Yaojin said with a chuckle: "Li An, this boy really has too many good things. This son is worthy of recognition. Not only did I have a granddaughter, but also good wine." For Lao Cheng, now I have hair dye for my wife, hey, I, Lao Cheng, am so lucky, I can earn so much even if I have a son."

"Mr. Lang." At this time, Cui Xian looked at Cheng Yaojin and said, "Just now when you were resting, I went to see the soap and scented soap that An'er had just made. It is a kind of soap that can be used for people like bath beans. Body bath stuff.

I feel that the prospects are very good and I am going to invest in one share. What do you think? "

"Okay..." Cheng Yaojin waved his hand: "We are all family members. Let's invest a share to strengthen our son's reputation. In fact, madam, in addition to the soap and soap business you mentioned, I am here this time. , and also wanted to cooperate with An'er in the furniture business.

You've seen all the furniture in An'er's home. How great. We were originally making furniture, and now we are directly integrating it with An'er. The furniture we produce in the future will definitely sell like crazy! "

"Langjun, we can do business with An'er, but we must take care of An'er. If the Cui family wants to take advantage of An'er, we must not do it." Cui Xian looked at Cheng Yaojin and said.

"Don't worry, madam. An'er is very good. Although it's our first time meeting, I can see An'er's character. And even if I don't look at An'er, I still have Duoduo's face. I really like Duoduo so much." , so I will definitely not make Duoduo sad!"

Cheng Yaojin's words made Cui Xian smile: "Me too!"
