The county magistrate's wife was born as a lady, and she usually pays special attention to cleanliness.Even if my favorite hairpin is touched by a stranger, I have to wash it thoroughly before wearing it again.

This time, this lipstick must have been put on by someone, but the county magistrate's wife couldn't care less, she quickly picked it up and put it on her lips.

When it was applied to her lips, the moist feeling made her eagerly say to the maidservant, "Take a bronze mirror and let me take a look."

The maid hurriedly ran into the makeup shop she just came out of and took out a bronze mirror.The bronze mirror was not very clear at first, but the bronze mirror showed the red lipstick so clearly, which made her whole face more beautiful.

"Ma'am, it's so beautiful!" Tian Xiang also liked it very much.Lipstick has two effects on the lips of the county magistrate's wife and Shen Mo. "Ma'am, your skin looks so translucent when you put this on, your whole face seems to be glowing."

Being told in this way, the county magistrate's wife subconsciously clenched the lipstick in her hand, not wanting to return it.Her cheeks were hot, she had never liked something since she was a child, and she wanted to keep it as her own even though she knew it wasn't hers.She has received a very good education since she was a child, and she knows that this practice is wrong and shameful.But she liked it so much, she endured the heat and gave the maid a wink.

Tian Xiang understood and said: "How much is this thing, can you make a price?"

Shen Mo shook his head and said: "I don't intend to sell, I will never have the opportunity to own such a good thing in my life, so I plan to pass it on to future generations as a family heirloom, and let them gain insight and know the world No matter how big it is, there are many things on the other side of the sea that we haven't seen."

"This..." Tian Xiang stomped her feet anxiously, hating Shen Mo for not being honest, but she could also tell that her wife really liked her very much.This is not tightly gripped, and there is no intention of returning it at all.Her wife has seen so many good things, when was she so blind.

"Our county magistrate's wife really likes it, so you can make a price!"

Tian Xiang really had no choice but to show his identity and use his power to overwhelm others, and anyone who knows how to do it knows what to do.Madam would never allow this kind of thing, but today she didn't say anything after Tian Xiang said so.Tian Xiang knew that this lipstick lady was going to order.

Shen Mo pretended to be terrified and said: "It's the county magistrate's wife, the villain has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, please forgive me."

The county magistrate's wife resisted the burning shame on her face, and said softly: "I like this lipstick very much. I don't know if my husband will give it up."

Shen Modao: "The county magistrate loves the people like a child, and the villain respects the county magistrate very much. Since Madam likes it, why don't you give it to Madam!"

The county magistrate's wife didn't expect him to be so successful, and she was very happy.At the same time, I feel even more embarrassed. The county magistrate's good reputation did not come overnight, but after decades of business.

She is a knowledgeable person, of course she doesn't want to ruin the reputation of the county magistrate, and she really likes it, so she can only make up for it in money.

"You mustn't do it. Husband, just say how much it is. I know your things are expensive. I won't counter the price you offered."

The county magistrate's wife was prepared that he would ask for a few hundred taels.She knows the value of this lipstick when she sees it.The place here is small, but if you get it in the capital, those high-end ladies will try their best to buy it back no matter how expensive it is.

Shen Mo thought for a while and said: "The villain knows that the county magistrate and his wife love the people like children, and the villain is really willing to give it to his wife. But he also knows that his wife definitely doesn't want it for nothing, so let's just give the villain 50 taels of silver. It can be regarded as the villain's affection for the county magistrate. In the future, I will have to rely more on the county magistrate!"

"Don't worry about it." Tiangaodidiyuan, a county magistrate is considered the local emperor of this town, and he said exactly what he said.As long as it is not a major event such as killing people and stealing goods, the magistrate's wife is willing to sell their favor.

"I don't know your husband's name and where your home is. If you need something later, you can come to me so that I know it's you today!"

"The villain's husband's family name is Zhou, and his name is Zhou Jing. The villain is his husband, and his name is Shen Mo."

The county magistrate's wife nodded and took off the purse she embroidered by herself.

"I embroidered this myself. You take it as a token. In the future, you will use it to come to the door and say your name or your husband's name. I will know it is you."

"Thank you ma'am." Shen Mo quickly took it over.

The county magistrate's wife nodded: "Then you and I will go back to get the silver!"

"Follow the sedan chair!" Tian Xiang said to Shen Mo.

Shen Mo pointed to Zhou Jing who was looking at things in the distance and said: "That is my husband, I will call him."

Zhou Jing had already seen clearly what happened in the distance, when Shen Mo came over, he pretended to ask a few words, and followed Jiaozi to the backyard of the yamen.

The two of them waited at the side door, Tian Xiang went in to get the silver, and came out soon.

Tian Xiang handed the 50 tael silver note to Zhou Jingdao: "When I came out just now, Madam asked me to bring you a message. I know that lipstick was originally intended to be an heirloom in your family. Madam likes it, so I bought it from your husband." Come here, don't blame me and your husband for taking the initiative, my wife promised that your husband can come to her if he needs something, and he will definitely help if he can help."

It turned out that the county magistrate's wife saw Zhou Jing following, and only then remembered that such a valuable thing was sold by a very low-status Shuang'er on her own initiative, and she sold it so cheaply, she might be punished by the head of the family when she went back, so she specially asked Tianxiang to bring a message. .

Zhou Jing hurriedly said: "It's our good fortune that Madam likes it. This lipstick is still dusty in our hands, and it's good fortune in Madam's hands."

"Xiao Mo, we are rich! Now we can finally fill our stomachs!" Zhou Jing revealed his true nature when he was far away from the Yamen, and excitedly said to Shen Mo: "It's still Xiao Mo who is capable, and even asked the county magistrate's wife to come. A favor, with this favor, I can let go of my work, which is really a surprise! Xiaomo, you are my lucky star!"

Shen Mo blushed from being praised, and said shyly: "I just think you said that this item could actually be worth a few hundred taels because we don't have connections and are afraid that it will be too expensive to sell, so you only sell it for 50 taels, and you feel that you are at a loss. I just wanted to make up for it, so I casually asked the county magistrate's wife for a favor."

Shen Mo was equally excited, he had never seen so much money, and for a moment he felt like he was carrying treasure.

"We still have a lot of them in our family. We'll sell them when the time comes!"

But Zhou Jing said with a smile: "I won't sell those for now. If I buy too many strange things at once, I'm afraid it will attract people's envy. If people think about them, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing."

"My husband is still thoughtful." Shen Mo was so happy that he blurted out what was in his heart.

"Husband." Zhou Jing chewed on these two words, how come his little husband called them so nicely. "Call again and I'll listen."

It was nothing at first, but when Zhou Jing said it in a serious way, it made Shen Mo feel embarrassed.The newly married young couples here all call their husbands who are the head of the house, and only the older ones are called the head of the house.

I usually don't think it's a big deal when I hear the little women in the village call it that. Why is Zhou Jing so... so unprincipled.

Zhou Jing's eyes darkened as he watched the little husband walk quickly, it's better to have a husband!

The two first went to the bank, exchanged the 50 taels of silver bills for broken silver, and specially asked for a thousand copper plates for spending.

There is nothing at home for firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, and everything is missing. There are too many to buy.

But I didn't dare to buy too much back home, for fear of attracting people's attention and causing disasters, so I had to buy less.

Brown rice is not tasty, and there are often dirty stones mixed in it, but I bought [-] catties for cheap, and only [-] catties for polished rice, plus [-] catties of oil and [-] catties of white flour.

Needless to say, I bought seasonings such as salt, soy sauce, vinegar, etc., and I went to the medicinal material store to buy seasonings such as star anise, aniseed pepper, tangerine peel and longan.

Shen Mo also wondered what he bought these for, Zhou Jing said it was also a kind of seasoning, Shen Mo was overwhelmed with surprise.

The most important thing is the meat. Zhou Jing was so greedy for this stuff at this stage, he bought ten catties at once, and he spent dozens of copper coins to wrap up those big bones and internal organs.

And sugar is also a good thing at this time, he guessed that his little husband might have less chance of eating sugar than meat.After all, pheasants can be hunted on the mountain, but sugar cannot be found.

Sure enough, when the little husband saw that he had bought white sugar, the gluttons in his eyes were about to crawl out.

In fact, he should buy fabrics to make clothes, but Zhou Jing thought about it and still didn’t buy them.

However, in the end Shen Mo still pulled Zhou Jing into a rouge and gouache shop.

"I don't look good with powder, so you don't need to buy this." Shen Mo said hastily.

Zhou Jing smiled a little wretchedly, "We don't buy the ones to put on the face, but the ones that are put on there."

Shen Mo really felt that his face was going to burn and smoke. Is Zhou Jing really a rich man and not a hooligan?

"You...why do you always think about that!"

Zhou Jingli said bluntly: "As a very healthy man, what do I do to marry my husband? Of course I do!"

Shen Mo didn't want to talk to him anymore.

When the shopkeeper heard that Zhou Jing wanted to buy that thing, he also smiled ambiguously, and smiled tacitly at Zhou Jing.

"Brother, you've come to the right place. Let's not talk about anything else in our town. I can assure you that I have the most complete styles here." The shopkeeper took out two kinds and said: "This one is twenty yuan, and the one next to it is fifty yuan more expensive. arts."

Either way, the surrounding scenery is also despised, and it is inferior at first glance.

Zhou Jingdao: "Shopkeeper, this kind of thing is used there after all, we dare not use it badly, so you can bring me some good options."

The shopkeeper tentatively said: "There must be good ones, how much money can you accept?"

"Which one do the little rich people in our town buy?"

The shopkeeper said: "That is expensive, it costs five taels of silver!"

"can."

The shopkeeper brought out five kinds, and Zhou Jing chose one.When paying the money, she was accidentally seen by Shen Mo, and was almost snatched back by Shen Mo. When she came out, she said angrily: "It's so little, he stole the money!"

Zhou Jingdao: "We sold such a small lipstick for 50 taels."

"Of course it's different. There's no lipstick here!"

Zhou Jing smiled and said, "You get what you pay for, and you'll know the benefits of this thing at night."

Shen Mo was too ashamed to speak, he was too embarrassed to bring this matter up for discussion.
