I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives

In Qing Kingdom, Chen Jia and Chen Jue have become the focus of everyone's attention with their outstanding achievements in craftsmanship and beauty. But their hearts of constant exploration and innovation have never stopped beating.

One day, the sun shone through the carved window lattice into Chen Jia's boudoir. Chen Jia was dressing in front of a bronze mirror, holding an ordinary hairpin in her hand. Looking at her slightly monotonous self in the mirror, she couldn't help but fall into deep thought. At this time, Chen Jue happened to walk into the room and saw Chen Jia's thoughtful look. He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Madam, what makes you so absent-minded?"

Chen Jia raised her head, her eyes met Chen Jue's in the mirror, and she said softly, "My husband, look at the gorgeous clothes and accessories in this room, but I always feel that they lack some agility and brilliance. I suddenly had an idea. Since we have a large number of high-quality pearls, if we use them to embellish clothes, makeup and hair accessories, wouldn't it make women more radiant?"

Chen Jue was slightly startled, then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He walked to Chen Jia and said, "My lady, this idea is great! Pearls are warm and lustrous, and are loved by women. If they are integrated into clothing and makeup, they will definitely lead a new fashion trend. However, the specific implementation still needs careful consideration."

Chen Jia turned around and looked at Chen Jue, her eyes full of expectation: "I am also worried about this. For example, when embellishing clothes with pearls, what kind of needlework should be used to ensure that the pearls are firmly fixed and do not fall off, while not destroying the overall beauty of the clothes; in terms of makeup, how to cleverly use pearls to decorate without appearing abrupt; and hair accessories, we need to design novel and unique styles to attract everyone's attention."

Chen Jue nodded in agreement and said, "These questions are indeed crucial. For clothes, we can consult the most famous embroiderers in the city. They are skilled in needlework and will definitely give good suggestions. For makeup, we might as well invite makeup artists in the capital to discuss how to perfectly combine pearls with makeup. As for hair accessories design, we can gather the most creative craftsmen in the workshop to brainstorm."

After the two of them had made their decision, Chen Jue immediately went out to the embroidery workshop in the city. When he met the chief embroiderer in the workshop, Chen Jue respectfully explained his purpose and took out a round pearl: "Embroiderer, my wife and I want to embellish our clothes with pearls. Do you have any good needlework to recommend?"

The embroiderer took the pearls, looked at them carefully, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Sir, if you want to sew the pearls firmly on the clothes and make them look beautiful, you can use the gold-stitching needlework technique, wrap the silk thread around the pearls, and then fix them with fine needles. This will not only highlight the luster of the pearls, but also ensure their stability."

After hearing this, Chen Jue was overjoyed and quickly thanked her: "The embroiderer is indeed worthy of her reputation. This method is very good. I wonder if you can come to my workshop and guide the craftsmen in operation?"

The embroiderer readily agreed.

At the same time, Chen Jia gathered the makeup artists and craftsmen in the workshop. She distributed pearls to everyone and said, "I invited everyone here today to study together how to incorporate pearls into makeup and hair accessories. Everyone is welcome to speak freely and share any ideas you have."

A young makeup artist spoke first: "Madam, I think for makeup, you can grind the pearls into very fine powder and mix it into lipstick or facial cream. After applying it, the skin will have a natural luster. You can also use very small pearls and stick them on the corners of the eyes, between the eyebrows and other parts as decoration to add a bit of smart beauty."

After hearing this, Chen Jia's eyes lit up: "This idea is novel and unique, it's worth a try."

Then, an old craftsman stood up and said, "Madam, as for hair accessories, I think we can make pearl hairpins, stringing pearls together so that they sway with the woman's steps; or we can make pearl hair crowns, inlaying pearls into various exquisite patterns, which will definitely show her nobility."

Everyone talked about it and put forward many novel ideas. Chen Jia listened carefully and nodded in approval from time to time.

After some discussion, everyone started to try. In a corner of the workshop, the embroiderer was instructing the craftsmen to sew pearls on the clothes using the gold-stitching needlework. The craftsmen operated carefully, and the pearls in their hands, like lively elves, gradually outlined beautiful patterns on the gorgeous clothes.

Chen Jia watched from the side and offered her suggestions from time to time: "The arrangement of the pearls here can be more compact to highlight the layering of the flowers."

Elsewhere, the makeup artist was concentrating on preparing lip and facial creams infused with pearl powder. He carefully controlled the amount of pearl powder used and repeatedly adjusted the color and texture.

Craftsmen are working on the production of hair accessories, with some carefully polishing pearls to make them rounder and smoother, while others are designing the frames of hair accessories to create unique shapes.

After several days of hard work, the first batch of finished products finally came out. A gorgeous dress embroidered with peony patterns, the stamens of the peony were embellished with pearls, sparkling charmingly in the sun; in terms of makeup, a woman tried facial cream blended with pearl powder, her skin became fair and delicate, and the small pearls pasted on the corners of her eyes were like stars, adding a bit of playfulness; and the hair accessories were even more amazing, a pearl hair crown, with a gold frame, and pearls inlaid with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, exquisite and exquisite; and pearl hairpins, each pearl is crystal clear, and a slight movement will make a crisp and pleasant sound.

Chen Jia and Chen Jue looked at the finished products with great satisfaction. In order to showcase the new products, Chen Jia decided to hold a grand fashion banquet and invited dignitaries and ladies from the capital to attend.

On the day of the banquet, Chen Jia wore the peony dress embellished with pearls, a pearl crown on her head, and delicate makeup, looking radiant. She stood at the door of the banquet hall to welcome the guests.

A noble lady saw Chen Jia's outfit and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Madam Chen, you are so beautiful today! The clothes and hair accessories embellished with pearls are simply exquisite. I have never seen such beautiful clothes."

Chen Jia smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam. This is the result of the joint efforts of my husband, the craftsmen and me. There will be more wonderful displays at the banquet today, and Madam will definitely like them."

After the guests were seated, Chen Jia invited several models to show everyone the pearl-embellished clothing, makeup and hair accessories. The audience watched intently and exclaimed in admiration.

"This pearl hair accessory is so exquisite, I must buy one." A young lady said excitedly.

"Yes, this makeup is also unique. The use of pearls makes it more noble and elegant." Another lady agreed.

At the climax of the banquet, Chen Jia and Chen Jue took to the stage to introduce the design concept and production process of these new products to everyone.

Chen Jue said: "These pearl ornaments are not only a symbol of beauty, but also a reflection of our pursuit of beauty and innovation. We hope that through these works, every woman can shine with her own brilliance."

Chen Jia continued, "Today, we have also prepared a customized service for you. You can customize unique pearl clothing, makeup and hair accessories according to your preferences."

After the banquet, orders came pouring in. Chen Jia and Chen Jue's workshops began to get busy, expanding production to meet customer demand.

However, as the new products became popular, some imitations also appeared on the market. These imitations were crudely made and of low quality, which seriously affected the reputation of Chen Jia and Chen Jue.

When Chen Jia learned about this, she was very angry: "These people are simply destroying our hard work. We must find a way to stop them."

Chen Jue comforted her, "Don't worry, my lady. We can file a complaint with the government and ask them to stop these infringements. At the same time, we must also strengthen the quality control of our products so that customers can distinguish between genuine products and imitations at a glance."

With the intervention of the government, those imitations gradually disappeared from the market. Chen Jia and Chen Jue's pearl jewelry business became more and more prosperous under their careful management.

Many years later, Chen Jia and Chen Jue recalled this experience with deep emotion. Chen Jia leaned on Chen Jue's shoulder and said, "Husband, if it weren't for the sudden inspiration at the beginning, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today."

Chen Jue gently held Chen Jia's hand: "Yes, as long as we maintain the spirit of innovation, we will be able to create more miracles in the future."
