Inside the High Wall [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 17 Time Number: 1
When Zheng Zhao and Zheng Lian came back, the Qingguo Mansion didn't send anyone to pick them up, and they didn't care, and went back directly.Fu Niang opened the curtain and saw the two huge stone lions at the gate, but hesitated in her heart.
"Brother Zhao, let's send Chun Niang back to Ping'an Lane first." She wanted to enter the door for too long, but now she can but dare not.
Zheng Lian persuaded: "Auntie, Miss Chun, I can send someone to see you off. If you are worried, I can go there in person. There is no reason for you to leave when you arrive at the door. Let's go visit your mother with your third brother. "
"Why bother the young master..." Fu Niang hesitated.
Zheng Lian said: "Auntie will take care of Caiyun for me. Grandma thinks she is from a low family background and has always disliked her. After Caiyun and I got married, we moved directly to Linqing, saying it was to take care of the family property, but in fact it was almost the same as dividing the family. "
Fu Niang frowned and said: "The old lady looks down on me, and she only allowed me to enter the door until now, I'm afraid I can't do anything."
Zheng Lian said: "Third brother's reputation is growing day by day. Grandmother won't embarrass my aunt. Please take care of him once or twice."
"Growing fame?" Fu Niang looked at Zheng Zhao suspiciously, "Brother Zhao, what's going on?"
Zheng Zhaodao: "It's all a misunderstanding, really it's all a misunderstanding."
Fu Niang was even more at a loss when she heard this.
Zheng Lian said with a smile: "The third brother has turned Chengzhizhai into the No. [-] gold and stone shop in Jiangbei with a stroke of Xiaozhuan. Anyone who passes by Linqing from south to north, who doesn't want to engrave a seal? Even if it's too late to go, I have to take it away. Printed manuscript."
He didn't tell the story about the thrush in front of Fu Niang.
Zheng Zhao nodded slightly to Zheng Lian.
Fu Niang was surprised when she heard it, she didn't leave the house at home, and the things that had been spread in the streets and alleys of Linqing were all new to her ears.
It turns out that Zhao Geer was lazy when writing and drawing.
He was wrong.
But what can these false names do?However, the momentary blooms will be forgotten in a short time, so there is no real fame.
Still should read more.
Fu Niang was thinking so many times, she was no longer nervous when she stepped into the gate of Duke Qing's mansion, she just kept nagging in a low voice, asking Zheng Zhao to study and improve.
On the way from the door to the main courtyard, maids in twos and threes passed by them pretending to be innocent, all looking at Zheng Zhao.
Zheng Zhao lowered his head and put on his cloak and hat to block his sight.
The capital is much cooler than Lin.Although it was snowing in Linqing, the wind was warm and the sky was sunny.But in winter in Beijing, especially when it snows, the north wind howls, the clouds are dense, and the sky is not visible.
Finally entering the house, Fu Niang's fingertips were red.Mi Xia ran in early to inquire about the situation with the familiar servant girl, seeing them arriving at this moment, she hurriedly approached and whispered: "The old lady is here too, she came here on purpose.
Fu Niang became nervous again when she heard this, she straightened her clothes and walked towards Nuan Pavilion without looking back.Looking at her back, Zheng Zhao felt a little heroic.
The wind is blowing, the water is cold, and the strong man will return...in a while.
Zheng Zhao stepped forward and walked side by side with her.
In the warm pavilion, the old lady sat on the soft couch in the middle, Zheng Yu sat next to the old lady, and his wife Ning sat at the bottom.
After Zheng Zhao and Fu Niang had greeted them, the old lady asked the servant girl to bring a brocade tree, and said, "Sit according to brother."
The concubine can't sit in the room, even standing next to it is a grace.Just like cloth dishes, usually the daughter-in-law is standing and serving.It sounds very hard, but the young lady is not even worthy of this hard work.
Zheng Zhao took off his cloak a long time ago, and was wearing a half-new round neck robe. He glanced at Jin Wu and said, "Don't dare to sit down."
Etiquette is a strange thing.It requires the daughter-in-law to serve the mother-in-law, but it doesn't say what to do when the son sees the mother standing?So during the family banquet, the wife stood and waited on the old lady, and the young masters and girls all sat and ate in peace.
He said: "My aunt is standing, Zheng Zhao dare not sit down."
Fu Niang felt mixed feelings when she heard the words, and her eyes were sore, but she still raised her head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about! You sit down and I stand."
If the old lady accuses him of disobedience, then he will be finished.
Zheng Zhaodao: "Grandma, it's fine if I stand."
The old lady's complexion was extremely ugly, relying on a little reputation to openly violate her grandmother's order, superficial and arrogant, she was raised by a lowly prostitute.She glanced at Zheng Yu beside her. After all, she was not as steady as the one raised by her family.
"If you want to stand, you can stand." The old lady didn't even lift her eyelids, she came to discipline him, now seeing that it was right for Zhen'er to drive him to Linqing, she shouldn't even bring him back.
This meeting broke up unhappy, so Zheng Zhao took Fu Niang back to Ping'an Lane.If you live in the Gushan Pavilion, you will have to settle down tomorrow morning and evening.It is impossible to get up early, and it is impossible in this life.
Fu Niang returned to the house in Ping'an Lane, looking at the familiar table and chair arrangement, she felt very comfortable.I have been thinking about the place for more than ten years, but I feel uncomfortable when I really go in.
"Auntie, I don't need you to compromise." Zheng Zhao changed his clothes, sat down and drank hot tea, "I didn't need it before, I don't need it now, and I won't need it in the future."
Everyone knows that he is the concubine of Duke Zheng Zhen of the Qing Dynasty, and he can't become a prince even if he goes back, so what will he do when he goes back?
Fu Niang's eyes were sore again, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "I'll go see how Chun Niang is doing in the kitchen." After saying that, she left.
Seeing Fu Niang leave, Mi Xia approached and whispered: "Ban Lian went to the second young master's room."
Zheng Zhao took another sip of tea and said indifferently, "Got it."
On New Year's Eve, the Qingguo Mansion did not send anyone over, and Zheng Zhao lived comfortably for a few days.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Qing Guo Mansion sent people over, Zheng Zhao thought, they must regret putting his name on the family tree.
Worshiping ancestors is mostly to show the pomp and status of descendants.
Zheng Zhao followed a group of people to the main hall of the ancestral hall. Fen Zhao was appointed as the chief priest, Zheng Yu accompanied the priest, and Zheng Lian and other concubine sons also had their own duties. Perhaps it was the reason for the concubine. No, just let him guard the Fenchi.
Playing music, presenting nobles, worshiping toilets, burning silk, and liberating wine.
During the shadow worship, Zheng Zhao saw Zheng Qiang wink at him at the Neiyi Gate, then lowered his head and stood among the female relatives in the sill.
Outside the gate of the ceremony, there are a lot of young servants in the family.
When the ancestral sacrifice was over and she was about to salute the old lady, Zheng Qiang secretly stepped back a few steps and hid to the side. Seeing Zheng Zhao passing by, she called him.
"Third brother, I have something to tell you."
Zheng Zhao followed Zheng Qiang away from the crowd and walked to the corridor.
"I asked you whether to make the ink or not." Zheng Qiang took out a box of rouge from her sleeve, "You didn't go to my place when you came back, and I was still thinking about how to let the mud go."
Zheng Zhao took the rouge, dipped a little bit of it with his fingers and applied it on the back of his hand. The texture was similar to that made of tallow. Not only did it not have the smell of tallow, but it also had a smell of rouge.
"Third sister, how did you make this?"
"I don't know how to make it." Zheng Qiang laughed, "I heard that recently there was a rouge that smelled so fragrant after being applied on it, so I asked someone to buy it from a rouge shop on the street as a novelty. It's just I didn't expect this rouge to be a little sticky and the fragrance is poor, but it is exactly what Third Brother uses."
"If the poor fragrance is limited by the price, it's easy to solve." Zheng Zhao put away the rouge and said, "Thank you, Sanmei, for your attention."
"Third brother wants to thank you, just say it." Zheng Qiang covered her mouth and smiled, "Princess has a banquet in the Paradise Garden on the fifth day of the new year. All the nobles from the capital went and invited our family, me and third sister. I know If the third brother doesn’t come home, it’s said on the post that if the family is worried, there can be a brother who can follow, and the third brother will go to the Paradise Garden to draw my eyebrows.”
Before Zheng Zhao agreed, she went on to say: "Every day people talk about Qingmei, and some say Qingmei is ugly. Hmph, either they are ugly, or they draw ugly. This time let them see how authentic Qingmei is." nice!"
Zheng Zhao touched the rouge box and agreed, "Okay."
Zheng Qiang got a satisfactory answer, and happily pulled her back into the crowd.After saluting to the old lady, Zheng Zhao immersed himself in researching the box of rouge, and sent someone to the rouge shop with silver to inquire about it the next day.
Fortunately, this rouge was not an exclusive secret recipe, but flowed out from Pingkangfang. It was prepared by prostitutes themselves earlier.This rouge is not used to wipe the face and lips, but to wipe the buds on the front of the chest and the vagina of the lower body.
……
The key to the recipe is to replace tallow with balsamic.The balm is fried with a variety of spices, and the must-haves are garnet, white gum, musk, and carapace, and the rest can be added at will.
One kind of fragrance and one kind of taste, more than a dozen kinds of fragrances are mixed, and the fried balsamic must be suitable, even if you know the way of fragrance, it is difficult to make it.
Zheng Zhao smelled the fragrance so much that his nose almost lost his sense of smell.
On the fifth day of the lunar new year, in order to reward Zheng Qiang, Zheng Zhao got up early and took a box of eyebrow gel and a box of rouge to take a carriage to Paradise Garden.This is the second time he has come to Paradise Garden. The princess was still the daughter of a boudoir when he came last time.
"Third brother, here!"
There was a lot of traffic at the gate of the Paradise Garden, and Zheng Qiang was waving from the carriage.
Zheng Zhao got out of the carriage he had hired and got into the carriage of Duke Qing's mansion.Zheng Heng was also in the carriage, but she wore a thin layer of makeup but did not draw eyebrows.
"Third brother, are your hands too cold? Do you want to warm your hands first?" Zheng Qiang put the stove into Zheng Zhao's hand, "If your hands are cold, you will not be flexible. I am here today for those women who are jealous of us." Show me what Qingmei is!"
Zheng Heng frowned when he heard the words, and advised: "Third sister, be careful and keep a low profile in everything, and don't argue with those people."
Zheng Qiang said: "They came to slander me first."
The sisters were chattering, and Zheng Zhao picked up a pen to draw their eyebrows.I have painted more orchids, and my eyebrows are more beautiful than before.
Zheng Zhao nodded in satisfaction, took out the rouge box, opened it for Zheng Qiang to smell.
"I blended this box for two days, how does it smell?"
Zheng Qiang took a deep breath, sneezed, and said: "It smells better than last time, and the fragrance has a layered fragrance, but it's too irritating to smell for a long time, so it's not suitable for daily use."
Zheng Zhao said: "I'll go back and try again." He turned around and walked out as he spoke.
"Wait, wait." Zheng Qiang called out to him, "Aren't you going to visit the Paradise Garden, Third Brother? I heard that there are ten thousand hectares of Mei Lin in this garden."
The ground is full of heavy snow, it is time to look for plums in the snow.
"Brother Zhao, let's send Chun Niang back to Ping'an Lane first." She wanted to enter the door for too long, but now she can but dare not.
Zheng Lian persuaded: "Auntie, Miss Chun, I can send someone to see you off. If you are worried, I can go there in person. There is no reason for you to leave when you arrive at the door. Let's go visit your mother with your third brother. "

He didn't tell the story about the thrush in front of Fu Niang.
