Chapter 282: add makeup
Chapter 282 Makeup
Since Suzhou sent the horse team to Beijing, the three little ones have not been out. Now that Jiang Liu asked this, Jiang Ling and Jiang Muyan also raised their heads.
Jiang Erye said, "Yan'er and Liu'er can go to play, and Ling'er has to stay home for a few days."
When the Suzhou Army came, he became ill. He would be fine as soon as they left. There was indeed a smell of three hundred taels of silver in this place. Jiang Ling nodded, "Yes."
Although Jiang Liu regretted it, he also knew that this arrangement was the most appropriate. She was in a hurry to go out, because she wanted to go to Xuexia evening for a walk. A few days ago, she "developed" a new foundation, which is more docile and natural than the foundation made of flour on the market today, and cheaper than the foundation made of pearls.
Jiang Liu and her sister are going out now, and they are already very busy. Nanny Zhao and Sister-in-law Qi, two maids, four maids, Yayin, and four nursing homes, brought a large group of people with them. Without so many people, their father would not allow them to go out.
On the evening of Xuexia, seeing the doubled storefront, according to the modern layout method, all kinds of rouge, gouache, and small accessories are neatly placed, Jiang Liu has a feeling that he has traveled back to modern times. , but was pulled back to Kang An by the clothes and accents of everyone in the store.
"The two girls are here, please come in." Jiang Chunxiu, the female steward of Xuexiawan, stepped forward to salute the two girls and invited them to enter the inner hall to rest.
Xuexia Wan now has two stewards, a man and a woman. The female steward Jiang Chunxiu is responsible for greeting customers and managing accounts in the store; the male steward Jiang Bo is responsible for workshops and purchases. These two stewards were picked by Jiang Liu himself. They looked pleasing to the eye and worked diligently. The store has Jiang staying behind to come up with ideas and innovative products, and the two of them take care of the surface, and the business is getting better and better.
Jiang Chunxiu is very capable. Not only did he clean the corners and corners of the store as per Jiang Liu's request, but even the back hall was clean and tidy, and the room was filled with a comfortable scent of sweet-scented osmanthus. After serving tea to the two girls, she brought up the store's account book.
Jiang Muyan flipped through the account book, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she smiled especially happily at her sister. Jiang Liu leaned over and saw that the running water in August had reached more than 400 taels. After deducting the cost, there was a profit of about 200 taels. His two front teeth were shining with a smile.
The income from this shop alone is enough for her and her sister to eat and wear.
Jiang Chunxiu said in a low voice, "The eldest lady of the Wang family sent someone to fetch the rouge a few days ago. The servant girl, according to the girl's instructions, said that the girl has prepared the rouge and will send it to the Wang family in a few days."
Wang Youying's wedding date is set for the tenth day of October, ten days earlier than Jiang Murong, so it's time for the Jiang sisters to add makeup to her. Jiang Muyan said, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, let's go today. Pick up a few new styles of rouge and pack them, and add two boxes of incense in the tent, what does my sister think?"
These things are not much. Since the eldest cousin Wang Youying burned her mother's wedding dress, Jiang Muyan never spoke to her. If it wasn't for the fact that she didn't want to be told that she didn't understand the rules, Jiang Muyan didn't even want to give these things.
Jiang Liu nodded, "A lot, elder sister, from the elder sister's side, do you want to bring it back today?"
Jiang Muyan nodded, and then instructed Jiang Chunxiu, "Choose eight boxes of the new rouge gouache in the store, two boxes of incense in the tent, two boxes of Baolin incense, two boxes of Shengmei incense, and two boxes of Baizi incense. There are sixteen boxes of rouge powder incense, choose the best box. install."
After Jiang Chunxiu went down to prepare, Jiang Muyan whispered to her sister, "When the second sister gets married, there are twelve boxes of fashion, and the fifth sister is still young, so we will talk about it later."
"Hmm." My sister didn't have to pick on etiquette, and Jiang Liu didn't have any opinion.
After Jiang Chunxiu had packed a large and a small box of spices, Nanny Zhao carried the ones to the Wang's house, while Mrs. Qi put the ones given to Jiang Murong in a carriage and sent them back to the house, and also put the pair of hairpins that the three girls had already prepared for them. After taking it, everyone rushed to the Wang family.
Mrs. Wang saw her two granddaughters come to add makeup to her granddaughter, so she immediately called Wang Youying over. The plump Wang Youying has endured hardships a lot in the past few months, and now she finally shows her waist in her clothes. Her face is smaller than she is, with the shyness and joy of being married, which is much more pleasing to the eye than before.
Jiang Muyan presented a makeup gift box, and Jiang Liu handed over the rosewood hairpin with jade, pearl and tassel that her sister prepared for her, and said a few auspicious words.
Wang Youying liked the pair of tassel hosta very much, and happily accepted it. The aunt Kong Shi was extremely dissatisfied with the small box of cream powder they brought over. She did not prepare rouge and spices for her daughter, and wanted to get a full set from Xuexia evening. Who knew that the maid she sent was actually kicked out by the steward.
Before the aunt's attack, Jiang Muyan explained, "These eight kinds of rouge gouache are the latest styles in the evening of Xuexia. A few days ago, the aunt sent someone to fetch it, because Yaner wanted to deliver it in person, so she didn't Let the steward be handed over to Xizhu. Grandma, Yan'er remembers that when my mother got married, she also brought eight kinds of rouge incense?"
Mrs. Wang nodded lightly, "Not bad."
Can you compare like this? Kong clenched her fist, your mother brought less when she got married, because her mother gave her an entire fat powder shop as a dowry! When Wang Qinghe got married, the Wang family gave her five shops. Now that the Wang family is marrying their daughter, these two dead girls will send this little thing. Is this to send beggars to pass away!
Jiang Liu saw the appearance of the aunt, and asked cutely, "How many dowry shops have the aunt prepared for my cousin? Grandma, Liu'er remembers that you gave my mother five dowries, right?"
Mrs. Wang nodded again, "Liu'er also has a good memory."
Wang Youying bit her lip slightly, her mother only prepared a small dried fruit shop for her in Nanshi.
Jiang Er kept Kong Neng in the prison, and all Kong's money was taken by her father to pay for the prison guard, where did she get the money to pay her daughter's dowry! The Kong family couldn't bear it anymore, and sarcastically said, "The Wang family married your mother in five shops, and now there are only two left. I'm afraid that when the two of you get married, the Jiang family will only be able to marry the two of you with one shop, right?"
Wang Youying also straightened his waist, with a smug look on his face.
Jiang Muyan clenched her fists, bit her lips and said nothing. Jiang Liu raised his head proudly, "My father said that as much as my sister and I want, he will give us as much dowry as we want."
snort! Kong's breath out through his nostrils, don't believe it!
Jiang Muyan straightened her back and spoke clearly to her grandmother, "Grandma, my father has seen two farmhouses for Liu'er and I, and they will be able to buy them at the end of the year. My father also said that if the two of us are in a relationship, which one will we meet? I went back and told him that if it was suitable, he would buy it."
Now, not to mention the Kong mother and daughter, even Mrs. Wang was stunned. After only a few months of work, the Jiang family has already slowed down and has the money to buy a property?
Jiang Muyan straightened her waist and felt extremely proud.
When sending their sisters out of the house, Mrs. Kong told Jiang Muyan in a pleasant manner, "On the tenth day of the tenth day of the lunar month, your family will come to help early, especially your father, you must let him come early."
Although Kong didn't want to see Jiang Feng, but he is now a big celebrity in Wansui's eyes. After he came and followed his busy schedule, the Wang family had no face.
Jiang Muyan shook her head gently, "My father and younger brother Ling are going to Taikang to give the eldest sister a dowry. Liu'er and I will come to help earlier."
Mrs Kong's nose was almost crooked with anger, "How much dowry Jiang Murong has, you have to bother your father to **** him in person!"
Jiang Liu stretched out his small fist, then opened his chubby little fingers one by one, and said slowly, "Five-ten-car."
Kong's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets, "Where did the Jiang family get the money to give her so much dowry?"
Winning the bet, Jiang Liu grinned and smiled extremely happily.
