Red makeup against the world

Chapter 303
Xu Wenmin smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Sister, don't worry, the foundation of the Xu family is still there, and a few carriages are nothing. In a few days, I will take you to see our silk flower and silk fan workshops, as well as the city ​​clothing store."

West Market is close to Houzai Gate, where the shops sell to ordinary people, and merchants from towns around Luoyang City often come here to purchase goods, and then transport them back for sale. It is a gathering place for wholesale and retail.

As for Nanshi, it is mainly for the nobles in Beijing and the big merchants who come from afar. "Splendid Story" is located in Nanshi, because the fabrics sold are expensive and ordinary people cannot afford to wear them.

"I'm almost moldy at home, brother, do you mean what you say?" Speaking of going out, Xu Wanzhen was still as excited as a little girl.It is not difficult to adapt to this ancient times, but the opportunities for women to go out are really less.

In this short period of time, Xu Wenmin has already started a silk fan workshop and a garment shop, which shows his high efficiency.Seeing my younger sister's face full of anticipation, she immediately promised: "Don't worry, younger sister, I will take you there after finishing the few things at hand."

Xu Wanzhen smiled and said: "Then I will wait for the good news from brother."

Xu Wenmin was waiting to go out when Xu Wanzhen remembered something and asked, "Brother, did the Zhu family reply?"

Speaking of this, Xu Wenmin was even more beaming. He nodded with a smile and said, "Sister asked, I just got the letter yesterday."

Seeing his happy face, Xu Wanzhen joked: "It seems that I will have a sister-in-law soon! The Zhu family really keeps their promise."

Xu Wenmin nodded suddenly: "Father-in-law is a gentleman, and Min deeply admires him!"

"My elder brother will treat my sister-in-law better in the future. Zhu Shibo kept his promise and married her to the capital alone, but her mother's family is thousands of miles away." Xu Wanzhen said.

This situation is very similar to Mrs. Xu's back then.Marriage from afar was extremely rare in the Gaomang Dynasty.Most parents love their children, and they usually see each other as close as possible when discussing marriage, so that when something happens, the two families can help each other.Those who marry their daughters also think that their natal family is close so that they can support them.

"Don't worry, sister, I will live up to the trust of my father-in-law." Xu Wenmin said solemnly.

"How does brother plan to reply to the letter? In my opinion, I need to discuss with my father. The wedding is next year, and the distance between the two places is far away. It will take a month to send the letter back and forth. The time is still very tight. There are many things that need to be discussed as soon as possible. , In terms of etiquette, don't neglect sister-in-law."

"What my sister told me is that I've been so busy these days that I haven't thought about it yet. I won't go out today. When my father comes back, we'll go to my grandmother to discuss an agreement and write back."

Since Xu Wenmin was not in a hurry, the brother and sister chatted for another half an hour.He picked up suitable stories and jokes circulating in the neighborhood these days and told Xu Wanzhen to make up for her regret that she couldn't go out.

After Xu Wenmin left, Caisi came in with a bowl of bird's nest and said, "Miss, the bird's nest porridge ordered by Madam Zheng is ready to drink while it's hot."

Xu Wanzhen touched her face and said with a smile: "These days, I think you are raising me as a pig. You lie down and sit all day long, eat three meals a day and have various cakes and bird's nests, and plan to raise me up for nothing Are fat ones easy to slaughter?"

Cai Si smiled and said, "Miss is right. But I see, Miss is still a long way from white and fat."

Xu Wanzhen took the bird's nest porridge and drank it in small sips with a silver spoon.

I secretly cursed in my heart, fortunately this body is young, it is just at the time of growth and development, so I don't worry about gaining weight as much as I eat.Otherwise, according to such a food supplement, you will have to lose weight long ago.

Caisi went out with an empty bowl, Xu Wanzhen stood in front of the bronze mirror in a daze.

Compared with when I first came here, I have grown a lot taller.Her skin was originally fair, but under the various treatments of Madam Zheng, it was as bright and translucent as jade, as if she could squeeze out water when pinched.She knew that not only the skin on her face was like this, but also the skin on her body was fair and delicate, as smooth as satin.

The ancients' maintenance method from the inside out is far better than those modern high-end beauty salons that cost thousands of dollars a time.

You know, here is "working at sunrise and resting at sunset", good sleep, good diet, good balm for bathing, etc., under such careful conditioning, it is unreasonable to have bad skin.

How can these modern women who take staying up late as a daily routine can do these things?Not to mention the pressure from work, family anxiety, air pollution in the environment, unsafe diet and other factors.After a long period of time, how much effect can it have if you go to an expensive nursing once in a while?
Xu Wan was really distracted, probably because of Mr. Ning, these days she thinks more about her past life.

Suddenly there was a jolt, as if it was half a month again?
Picking up the almanac next to the desk, I carefully calculated the days, and sure enough, tonight is half a month.

A smear of shame climbed up her jade-like cheeks, Xu Wanzhen was both looking forward to and fearing.

What I expect is that after tonight, a quarter of the medicine's power will be dispelled, and three more times will completely get rid of that damned love potion!
What is scary is the unexplained impulse, the hunger and thirst that cannot be controlled by him, the heat of his palm brushing against him, and the forbearance on his face.

After dinner and a medicinal bath, Sangzi prepared rose cakes and hot tea, arranged for Wen Mulan to stay outside, and Xu Wanzhen went to sleep with peace of mind.

With Wen Mulan around, he would naturally wake him up when he came.

……

The night was low, and the night sky was full of stars, like a handful of fine diamonds, inlaid on a huge and vast blue velvet carpet.

In early summer, insects chirp.

Wu Zhengxiang escaped out of Duke Zhongguo's mansion, avoided watchmen and guards patrolling along the way, and arrived in front of Jiashanfang.

Although the square wall is high, it still can't stop him.He took out a black-painted flying claw from the treasure bag at his waist, threw it lightly, and hooked it on the high wall.With force under his feet, like a lone eagle, and then with the force of flying claws, he swept across the wall.

He has long been familiar with the location of Xu's house.Put away the flying claws, under the cover of the shadows between the houses, go to Xu's house.

Jingli is not comparable to Mangshan in the northern suburbs, and its defense force is strong.Traveling at night here, even he needs to carefully hide his whereabouts.

A quarter of an hour later, he came outside the wall of the Xu family, and jumped into the wall.Wen Mulan had passed on the layout of the Xu residence to him.The landing point has long been optimistic. The place where he climbed over the wall is outside the third courtyard of Xu's house, and entering is Xu Wanzhen's small courtyard.

Wen Mulan sat outside with concentration, her back straight, her eyes shining in the dark.

Hearing a slight landing sound from the courtyard, she got up quietly, and looked out through the gap in the window, and it was indeed the figure of Master Wu.

Seeing her door open silently, Wu Zhengxiang thought to himself mockingly: "Looks like I don't have to open the window any more, which is considered a big improvement, and I really want to marry her home right away."
