Chapter 79 Show off
Wang was furious. What kind of crappy moisturizer was it? It was so expensive. Her daughter must have been cheated.
What a silly girl! She was cheated out of several thousand taels of silver.
This daughter was raised in vain.
I feel like this daughter was born to be a debt collector.
Previously, Wang was extorted of seven thousand taels of silver by Baozhu's biological father Zhu Qiang, and she became angry whenever she thought about it.
Wang picked up the small emerald green porcelain jar and was about to throw it to the ground.
Mother Sun quickly stopped her, "Madam, don't be angry. After all, this is sent by the young lady from the border. It is a token of her love."
Wang put down the moisturizer and tore the letter into pieces.
I felt like I wasn't satisfied at all and I still wanted to throw things. I wanted to smash everything in the house to get rid of the hatred in my heart.
Wang was annoyed when she saw the eye-catching emerald green color of the moisturizer. Thinking that out of sight, out of mind, she angrily stuffed the moisturizer into Grandma Sun's hands.
"Mother Sun, this moisturizer is for you."
Mother Sun was very happy. Miss Baozhu said in the letter that the current price of this moisturizer is 150 taels of silver.
This is the first time in my life that I own such a precious thing.
Mother Sun carefully brought the moisturizer back to the servants' room and applied it on her hands.
It’s not that she couldn’t bear to use it on her face, but she felt that her hands were cracked by frostbite and it hurt when they got wet, so she needed to apply moisturizer.
After only two days, Mother Sun found that her hands, which had been cracked throughout the winter, had healed and become whiter and smoother.
My God, the effect is amazing, no wonder it costs hundreds of taels of silver, this moisturizer is really a good thing.
At the same time, Wang went out to visit Cui's house and found that Madam Yang was carrying a bottle of moisturizer with her.
After a while, apply moisturizer on your hands and face.
This small jar of moisturizer looks very familiar. The lid is hollow and also has the words "Silver Moon" on it.
It was exactly the same shape as the one that Baozhu had brought back, only the color was different.
Madam Yang boasted proudly, "You haven't seen this kind of moisturizing cream yet, right? It's very popular among the noble ladies in Kyoto. I spent three hundred taels of silver to buy a bottle, and the effect is quite good. Look, have the wrinkles on my face become lighter?"
The price of moisturizers and the like used by noble ladies in the capital city would generally not exceed twenty taels.
Therefore, being able to spend three hundred taels of silver on an expensive item is indeed something one is qualified to show off.
Wang thought to herself: It turns out that this kind of lotion is sold at a high price of three hundred taels in the capital. So, the price Baozhu paid for it is not expensive. Baozhu seemed to say that she bought it for more than one hundred taels of silver.
Everyone looked at Mrs. Yang carefully and found that her skin was indeed much better than before.
Women all love beauty, so when they know there is such an effective moisturizer, they naturally make up their minds and immediately try to buy a bottle. Mrs. Yang continued to brag: "I used it and it worked so well that I wanted to buy two more bottles. I have already paid in advance, but they said I have to wait in line for 10 days to get the goods."
Everyone understood what Mrs. Yang was thinking. She was trying to show off that the moisturizer in her hand was a rare item that could not be bought even with money.
Wang snorted and thought: What's there to be proud of? My daughter sent back a bottle from Beiyue Pass.
Seeing that Mrs. Yang's skin had improved so much, Wang was not willing to pay a high price and wait for 10 days. She wanted to use it immediately.
At worst, I can just shamelessly ask for the things back from Grandma Sun.
Next time I go to a party, I will bring the bottle with me to show off.
Wang suddenly felt that Baozhu was quite discerning.
It's a pity that only one bottle was sent back from Beiyue City. If I had sent back dozens of bottles and sold them, I would have made a fortune.
These ladies will definitely rush to buy it.
As soon as Wang returned to the Lin residence, she said to Madam Sun, "I think you didn't throw away the moisturizer I asked you to take last time? I'm not angry with Baozhu anymore. Please help me get it back."
For this, Wang also rewarded Mother Sun with a pair of silver earrings.
Wang blushed and explained, "After all, it was Baozhu's gift. As a mother, I must cherish it."
Mother Sun was extremely reluctant, but she still brought the moisturizer back to Wang.
"Ma'am, I'm sorry. I thought you didn't want it, so I tried it a little."
Mother Sun really only used a little bit because she thought the thing was very expensive, so she used it very carefully and economically.
But now I regret it. If I had known that my wife would ask for the things back, she would have used them ruthlessly.
Wang didn't mind it, "It's okay, it's not a big deal if I use a little."
To be honest, she was also at fault.
Asking for back the things rewarded to servants is a very shameful thing for a master, and people will laugh at you if others tell them about it.
But there is no way now. You can’t buy this moisturizer even if you queue up. Thinking of the miraculous effect after Mrs. Yang used this moisturizer, Wang felt itchy in her heart.
If I wasn't in a hurry to use it, I wouldn't have the audacity to ask Grandma Sun for it back.
"Mother Sun, you are an elder in the mansion and you are very strict with your mouth. I believe you will not spread such a small matter."
Mother Sun understood what the lady meant, that she was afraid that this kind of thing would get out.
"Madam, rest assured, I am not a gossiper."
Mother Sun has only used the moisturizer for two days and feels that her skin has improved a lot.
It’s a pity that the things were taken away by my wife, I feel so regretful.
Although he swore in front of Wang that he would not say anything nonsense, he still ran to the oil shop to talk to Mrs. Wu.
"Hey, sister, I'm here again. Your oil shop has so many customers. Are you making a lot of money?"
Mrs. Wu smiled and replied, "It's all thanks to Miss Qianqian. It was Miss Qianqian who gave this shop to my family."
I have to say that although Miss Qianqian is young, she has a very good vision. The location chosen for her has a very large flow of people, and she can make a lot of money every day.
Grandma Sun praised: "You are so lucky, elder sister. You just softened your heart and saved Miss Qianqian's life. Elder sister, the person you saved was not an ordinary person. She was the first female official of our Great Yan Dynasty."
Mother Sun is a shrewd person and has long figured out Mrs. Wu's temper.
As long as she praised Miss Qianqian, she could make Mrs. Wu happy.
When Mrs. Wu was happy, she took Grandma Sun to the backyard to have tea and snacks, just like last time.
As soon as Mother Sun entered the backyard, she saw a little child reading under a tree.
The little body stood straight, with his hands behind his back, reciting a book.
This little boy is the grandson of Mrs. Wu who is gifted in studying and his name is Shansheng.
Since Mrs. Wu and her family moved to this shop to do business, everything has been going smoothly, and Shansheng was admitted to the famous Chaoyang School in the capital.
Grandma Sun: "Oh, this is the little good boy that everyone praises for being smart and clever. This is the first time I see him, so I have to give him a gift."
