Farmhouse blessed wife is charming and beautiful

Chapter 225 Chapter 225: Doting on the Wife, Buying, Buying, Buying 2 (3000 words)
The two big men, Jun Wulan and Yang Chunhua, followed behind the three women awkwardly.

A pile of cosmetics on the container.

Shen Qingcheng took a look, there were lipsticks, flower tints, eyebrow powders, and makeup powders.

"Boss, can I take a look at it in my hand?"

"Of course you can. Just look at it, my family still has trial ones. If my sister likes a certain model, let me know. I'll use the trial one to smear on my sister to see how it feels."

With the little girl's consent, Shen Qingcheng picked up a bottle of lip balm and smelled it. It had a faint fragrance, and fresh flowers should have been used for its production.

The eyebrow powder should be Shi Dai.

Because Shen Qingcheng is proficient in cooking, she has a sensitive sense of smell. When she picked up the makeup powder to look at it, she smelled a faint smell of lead powder.

In my impression, in the underdeveloped era, a certain amount of lead powder or mercury was added to the makeup powder used by women for long-lasting makeup.

In this era, makeup powder is actually done like this.

Seeing that Shen Qingcheng frowned after smelling the makeup powder, the boss hurriedly asked: "Sister, do you not like the smell of this makeup powder? You have others in our store, and I will show you."

It's not good for Shen Qingcheng to explain the reason directly, lest the little girl mistakenly think that she is provoking trouble.

"It doesn't smell bad."

She gently put the makeup powder in her hand on the container, smiled and said, "I'm not used to putting powder on my face, boss, how much is this box of lip balm and this box of eyebrow powder? I just need these two." .”

The boss said: "[-] Wen for lipstick and [-] Wen for eyebrow powder. I'll give my sister a little discount. Two boxes are worth [-] Wen. What do you like?"

Shen Qingcheng felt that this little girl was quite stubborn.

"Thank you."

Jun Wulan paid the money readily.

When she was about to leave, Shen Qingcheng still couldn't help asking: "Boss, did you add some lead powder to your makeup powder?"

The boss replied unabashedly: "That's right, not only my makeup powder has lead powder in it, other makeup powders also add lead powder, even the makeup powder used by the nobles in the capital will also add lead powder."

"You can try rice flour instead of lead powder."

Seeing that Shen Qingcheng was kindly reminding herself, the boss hurriedly said politely: "Sister, can you come in and tell me in detail, don't worry, I won't waste my sister's time in vain."

"Ah."

The makeup powder mixed with lead powder and mercury powder has harmed many women. Since the boss is willing to accept her opinion, Shen Qingcheng nodded and followed her to the lounge.

The boss poured hot tea for a group of four people and served some refreshments, and then humbly asked Shen Qingcheng for advice: "Sister, do you think makeup powder made of lead powder is not good? Can rice flour be used as makeup powder? But I've never seen anyone use it."

Shen Qingcheng took a sip of tea to soothe her throat.

"Lead powder is poisonous. Women use this kind of makeup powder for a long time. Over time, the toxicity of lead powder will stay in the human body. If it is light, the complexion will be yellow and the spots will be obvious. If it is serious, it will lose life. Although rice powder is not as long-lasting as lead powder makeup, but Safe, and there is another powder that can replace lead powder."

"What powder?"

Shen Qingcheng said: "Pearl powder, pearl powder has the effect of beautifying the skin, but the cost is too high for ordinary people to afford."

After Shen Qingcheng finished speaking, the boss frowned as if lost in thought.

Those women who often put on paint and make up are indeed in their 40s and [-]s. All of them have yellow complexions and spots on their faces. She used to think that it was the aging of women, but now it seems that they are poisoned by lead powder.

The boss was a little apprehensive.

"Thank you for your reminder, my surname is Jiang, and my single name is peach. Today, my sister kindly reminded me that I have made my sister a friend. If my sister still wants to buy makeup in the future, just come to me, and I will definitely give my sister a discount."

"My surname is Shen, and my name is Shen Qingcheng. This is my husband, and my husband's surname is Jun. These two are my righteous brother and sister, and their surname is Yang."

Yang Chunhua lowered his head slightly when Shen Qingcheng introduced him.

Brother Yi, when he heard these two words, he still felt a little heartache.

His childhood sweetheart, who had been childhood sweethearts for more than ten years, he thought he could grow old with Qing Cheng, but in the end they became brother and sister, what an irony of God.

"Sister Qingcheng, how do you know that makeup powder is poisonous? I have been running a makeup shop for almost a year, and I don't know about it."

When Jiang Tao asked, the other three people in the room also looked at Shen Qingcheng in unison.

Shen Qingcheng's heart skipped a beat, she was only focused on reminding Jiang Tao just now.

"I also heard people say that there was an elder at my mother's natal family who liked to wear powder when he was young, but his face became dark spots when he was old. After that, he didn't use makeup powder, and the dark spots on his face faded a little. There is a problem with makeup powder."

Since the death of the original owner's mother, Shen Wei's family, there has been no contact between the Shen family and Shen Wei's family. People from her natal family came to cover her, so no one would suspect her.

Stared at by several questioning eyes, Shen Qingcheng had no choice but to pull out Shen Wei's natal family to block it again.

"I see."

Jiang Tao believed it, and Jun Wulan and the Yang family brothers and sisters also put away their questioning eyes.

Shen Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and said, "It's getting late, Boss Jiang, let's take our leave first."

Jiang Tao benefited a lot. Seeing Shen Qingcheng get up and leave, she got up and went to the container to get two more boxes of lip balm. When sending Shen Qingcheng and others to the door, she handed a box of lip balm to Shen Qing oranges, and handed the other box to Yang Chunfen.

"I have benefited a lot from Sister Qingcheng's words. I hope you two will accept this small gesture."

Shen Qingcheng doesn't really like to use lip balm, but thinking of the strong wind in winter, lips are prone to dryness, and lip balm can prevent chapped lips. Seeing that Jiang Tao sent a red lip balm, she thought for a while and said, "Since it's Miss Jiang I am disrespectful, but I have a ruthless request."

"Sister Qingcheng, please tell me."

Shen Qingcheng said: "I already have a box of red lip balm, can I replace this with a colorless one?"

If it is colorless, the little girl can touch it, and when Brother Jun's lips are chapped, he can dig a little and rub it on his mouth.

Jiang Tao smiled and said, "Sister, this colored lip balm is more expensive than the uncolored one."

"A colorless one is more useful to me."

"OK then."

Jiang Tao had no choice but to change a bottle of uncolored lip balm and hand it to Shen Qingcheng again.

Yang Chunfen had the cheek to accept the fat.

Jiang Tao stood at the door of the shop, watched Shen Qingcheng and the others get into the car, and said loudly: "Sister Qingcheng, I will use a new makeup powder for you when I make it."

After bidding farewell to Jiang Tao, Jun Wulan drove the carriage to the largest vegetable market in Xiliang County.

"Qingcheng, brother Yang, sister Chunfen, are you hungry? If you are hungry, I will buy you some food at a nearby stall first."

There is enough oil and water in Wanhelou, and the three of them are not hungry.

Yang Chunfen said: "I'm not hungry at all, brother-in-law, just take Sister Qingcheng to buy things for the wedding."

Shen Qingcheng opened the rolling curtain and looked at Jun Wulan's tall back.

"I bought the fabrics for wedding clothes, powder and jewelry. What else do I need to buy? There are still a few days until the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. I will buy the meat and vegetables for the wedding banquet in a few days, so as not to keep them stale for a long time."

Jun Wulan said: "Tomorrow is the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month."

After Jun Wulan reminded her like this, Shen Qingcheng remembered that the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month was Yang Wan's birthday, and she had to recognize Yang Wan as her adoptive father on the birthday.

"Then are we going to the vegetable market now?"

"Well, there should be a lot of people at the birthday party tomorrow, let's go to the vegetable market to buy some meat and vegetables."

Yang Chunhua hurriedly interrupted the conversation between the couple.

"My father and mother have already prepared the meat and vegetables for the birthday banquet."

Jun Wulan said: "The ones that have been prepared are made into bacon. You can eat them during the New Year. This birthday banquet is so grand mainly because of the green oranges. Why do you spend money?"

Soon, Xue Huacong pulled the car and stopped at the entrance of the vegetable market.

Jun Wulan found a place to tie up the carriage, and then they went to the vegetable market.

The vegetable market in the county city is very lively from morning till night.

Several people went to a stall selling pork.

There was still half a pig's pork hanging on the stall, Jun Wulan looked at it and thought the meat was very fresh, so she asked the boss: "Boss, what about the pork?"

"Fifteen cents a catty, young man, how much do you want to cut?"

The boss looked at several people.

Jun Wulan said: "I want half of this pork, can you give me a discount?"

Jun Wulan's words scared the Yang family brothers and sisters.

Yang Chunfen said, "Brother-in-law, you don't need to buy so many."

Yang Chunhua said with a serious face: "Many of the people who come to the banquet tomorrow are ill-intentioned and have said bad things about Qingcheng. There is no need to entertain them like this."

Jun Wulan said: "I'm buying the pork, you can discuss how much you want to use, and the rest can be regarded as Qingcheng's filial piety to the adoptive father and adoptive mother."

The boss was worrying that he would not be able to sell out the pork. When he heard Jun Wulan's words, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly replied: "You can get a discount, young man, how about I give you thirteen cents a catty?"

Shen Qingcheng said: "Boss, let's count twelve cents a catty. There is still a pig's head on your stall. I bought this pig's head too."

It's been a long time since I ate braised pork head meat, and Shen Qingcheng felt a little greedy.

The boss said: "Pork is worth twelve cents a catty, and pig's head is worth seven cents a catty. That's the way to go."

"thank you boss."

"You little lady, you really know how to live."

While the boss said that Shen Qingcheng would live a good life, he took the scale and pole, and with Jun Wulan's help, he weighed the pork and the pig's head.

Half of the pork is eighty catties, and one pig's head is fifteen catties.

After buying pork, Shen Qingcheng bought some aniseed ingredients at the vegetable market, and several people got into the car.

I found a small restaurant in the county town for dinner, and the group of four returned to Dahuang Village, and it was already dark.

The carriage entered the village and went straight to Yang's house.

Because tomorrow is Yang Wan's birthday, a banquet is going to be held, and a preparatory meeting for the banquet is being held in the Yang family hall, and more than a dozen people who were invited to help are eating melon seeds in the Yang family yard to discuss matters.

Hearing the sound of the axle turning, Mrs. Wang Li from Wang Fugen's family, Mrs. Wang Zhao from Wang Fugui's family, and several women came to the door to have a look.

Seeing Jun Wulan and Yang Chunhua working together to lift half of the pork off the carriage, Wang Zhaoshi and Wang Lishi hurried forward to help.
