"What do you want pearl powder for?"
asked Zheng Xuemei in confusion.Lin Qiao pointed to the spots on Zheng Xuemei's face and said with a smile, "The slave maid wants to retrieve the beautiful face like a shelled egg for the little master." ”Zheng Xuemei blushed at first, and then was surprised, "Really" "Really," Lin Qiao nodded vigorously.Zheng Xuemei took out two thumb-sized beads and handed them to Lin Qiao, "You take it, see if there is a way to grind it into powder" Lin Qiao took it out and took a look, gasping for cold air, this is a good Nanzhu, although it is not big, but it is round and clear, one is more than scratching the head, Lin Qiao feels that it must be very valuable anyway, "What's wrong" Seeing Lin Qiao stunned at the beads, Zheng Xuemei was puzzled, "This bead is not good, then I'll look for it." ”"No, it's not bad, it's too good," Lin Qiao hurriedly stopped Zheng Xuemei, "It's just a pearl, but you don't need such a good bead, it's too wasteful." ”The two flipped for a long time, and finally, they pulled a few beads off one of Zheng Xuemei's close-fitting shirts.Holding the beads out of the door, Lin Qiao asked Zilan to find a small grinding plate, tried to throw the beads in, and tossed for a long time, in the end, let her make some powder.Lin Qiao was overjoyed, she tossed her head for a few days, then came to the front with a bunch of bottles and cans, asked Zheng Xuemei to wash off the fat powder on her face, called Zilan to prepare a basin of hot water, and then took a thick towel to cover the basin mouth so that there was only a small slit left, she first leaned over her face and tried it, so she asked Zheng Xuemei to put her face above the basin mouth, she picked up the towel and wrapped it tightly around Zheng Xuemei's face, striving not to let the steam run out.Zheng Xuemei's face was smoked by this steam, and she felt a little out of breath, she was so frightened that she was about to raise her head, but was pressed on her back by Lin Qiao, and shouted, "Little master, bear with me, this is to help you open the pores on your face, smoke out the dirt inside and invigorate the blood." ”Although Zheng Xuemei was uncomfortable, she gritted her teeth and endured it when she thought of Lin Qiao's confident assurance before, and after a while, she felt that the steam was so hot that her face couldn't stand it, but there was indeed a very comfortable feeling in the heat and pain, as if her limbs and bones were stretched out along the steam and sweat on her face for about half a cup of tea, the water slowly cooled, and the water vapor was almost dispersed, Lin Qiao lifted the towel and smiled, "Okay." ”Zheng Xuemei's face was soaked with sweat on her face, her clothes were soaked, she breathed in the fresh air, and asked, "That's fine" "It's just that the face is smoked, below, it's to make a mask," Lin Qiao wrapped Zheng Xuemei's slightly wet body with a thick blanket, helped her to lie down on the warm kang, and said, "Little master, please close your eyes." ”Zheng Xuemei felt very comfortable on her face, so she didn't ask anything anymore and closed her eyes as she said.Lin Qiao took a bowl, dipped a small brush in the thick paste and smeared it on Zheng Xuemei's face, the paste was cold, and applied it to Zheng Xuemei's fumigated hot face, so cold that she shivered, she scolded, "Dead girl, what are you putting on my face" Lin Qiao applied a mask to her with her hands and feet, and said with a smile, "This is a jade cream specially made by the slave maid for the little main tone, which is pearl powder, mung bean powder, almond foam, etc., mixed with white radish juice and egg white, and applied on the face, which is the most nourishing to the skin." ”"What kind of mess is this" Zheng Xuemei will be suspicious, "These ordinary things can work" "Little master, I don't know, sometimes the more ordinary things, the easier they are, let's just say that the rice is usual, but if you don't eat two meals, you will be hungry and panicked" "It's true" After a bowl of jade paste was applied, Lin Qiao estimated the time, and shouted Zilan to prepare clean warm water, Zilan smiled, "Sister Lin has been mysterious these days, and she has come up with this bunch of Ah Wuer."
I didn't know that Sister Lin had such good skills, why didn't I mention it in the past" Lin Qiao glanced at her coldly, "I don't have any skills, but it's just that the little master has taken good care of me these days, and I actually remembered some of the past things I forgot, otherwise, I would have already shown it to serve the little master." ”Zilan was bored and went out to fetch water.Zheng Xuemei closed her eyes, listened to the smoke in the conversation between the two of them, and once again felt that Lin Qiao's girl was not simply after half a pillar of incense, Lin Qiao helped Zheng Xuemei up, washed the mask on her face for her, and said with a smile, "The little master now touches his face and sees" Zheng Xuemei raised her hand and touched it, and felt that the tentacles were slippery, and then looked at the mirror, she also felt that it was much whiter and tenderer, and she was immediately overjoyed, "It's really useful." ”Lin Qiao took the bottle and jar, picked out some paste with the silver hairpin, and applied it to Zheng Xuemei's face again, "This is the flower cream that the slave maid is the main tone of, and it is boiled with almond oil beeswax and then picked the plum petals in the back garden, and the freckle removal effect should be good." ”Zheng Xuemei still had any objections at this time, naturally she was at the mercy of Lin Qiao.In a flash, a month has passed, and the Queen Mother's birthday has arrived.Zheng Xuemei was picked up by Lin Qiao for a month without leaving home, the skin on her face was as white as porcelain, and she didn't see any spots, she praised Lin Qiao's methods, and took Lin Qiao's hand and said, "Good sister, I didn't know that there was such a lucky general by my side, and God really favored me" Lin Qiao gave a blessing, "The little master Miao praised, serving the little master wholeheartedly is the blessing of the slave." ”Zheng Xuemei looked in the mirror again and again, and proudly picked up the fat powder, "The queen and the concubine Liang probably thought that I was old and crippled, and I wanted them to shine today." ”Lin Qiao pressed Zheng Xuemei's hand, "Little master, the slave thinks it's best for you not to use fat powder today." ”"Why" "The slave and maid dare to say, little master, you are not what it used to be at this time, it is better to keep a low profile; Second" Speaking of this, Lin Qiao smiled, "The little lord doesn't want the emperor to see how beautiful you look without fat powder" Zheng Xuemei thought about it, and then she also smiled, she dropped the fat powder box and said with a smile, "It's not that those foxes are bound to compete today, I don't have to fight with them." ”"Exactly," Lin Qiao took Daimo to sweep the tail of her eyebrows lightly for Zheng Xuemei, and then nodded her lips lightly with rouge, and said with a smile, "It's just that if you don't have makeup at all, it's a loss of etiquette, and we can't let them find the stubble to take it." ”"Good girl, think really thoughtfully," Zheng Xuemei got up, and was served by Lin Qiao to change into the clothes of the seventh-grade talent, and looked in the mirror, but she was sad, "Not long ago, I was still wearing a concubine dress from the first grade" What is this, I was still grabbing chicken legs to eat in modern times five years ago Lin Qiao rolled her eyes behind her back The Queen Mother's birthday, it is really a fragrant sideburns, the hall is full of pearls and green Lin Qiao helped Zheng Xuemei to the main hall of Yongshou Palace, and gave the Queen Mother a birthday, Zheng Xuemei was in a humble position at this time, so she could only retreat to the door and sit.She has always been in a high position, and the pile of low-level concubines sitting by the door has never been in her eyes.But today she also fell into this pile, which made her feel very ashamed This is the first time she has appeared after being demoted, and all the concubines are looking at her with a good look on their faces, but because of Emperor Jiahe's ambiguity, no one dares to provoke in the end, Zheng Xuemei sat by the door, and she was quiet for a while.Lin Qiao stood behind Zheng Xuemei, and just thought about serving a cup of tea to her master, when she suddenly felt that her sleeve was ripped off, and a little palace maid whispered in her ear, "Sister Lin Qiao, Your Royal Highness wants to see you." ”"His Royal Highness the Fourth Fourth" Lin Qiao was stunned:
