Chapter 49 The opportunity to become famous has come!

Shen Linfeng is a sister-con. Before Shen Chaoyan entered the palace, he would consult his sister about anything he encountered.

Shen Chaoyan mentioned in a letter to him before that the initiative is a business opportunity.

Now someone is using a lip balm that is similar to their new product, so wouldn’t their hard work for a month be wasted?

And Lu Qiyun is worthy of being the mistress of the house. Even if she could see that Madam Wei was deliberately showing off, her expression did not fluctuate, and she was still dignified and elegant.

She glanced at Madam Wei and said softly, "How are they similar? There is a world of difference. Look carefully, the lip balm in Madam Wei's hand is not as good as the one in our shop in terms of shell and hardness. Madam Wei just applied it on her lips twice just now, and the paste of the lip balm was a little crooked, which shows that the person who made the lip balm is not skilled. Besides, Madam Wei has dark skin and is old, so this light pink color doesn't suit her at all."

Shen Linfeng is a straight man. In his eyes, all lip balms look the same.

At this time, after hearing what Lu Qiyun said, he immediately gave his mother a thumbs up, "It has to be mother! No wonder my sister repeatedly emphasized in the letter that mother must help to check, it turns out that mother and sister have a sharper eye than me!"

"You, less slick talk, more business skills are the way to go." Lu Qiyun turned her eyes and saw a familiar figure in the crowd, "Look carefully, mother will let you see what is really good lip balm!"

Shen Linfeng pulled his eyelids with both hands, "Okay, son will open his eyes!"

Lu Qiyun looked at his funny look and rubbed her forehead helplessly, "Why did I give birth to such a fool like you! It's really frustrating!"

She said with disdain, but there was a smile in her eyes.

Shen Linfeng watched her walk into the crowd and walked towards a middle-aged woman.

Shen Linfeng recognized the other person. She was Gu Jinyue, the daughter of the former Tongpan of the capital.

He heard from his mother that before she got married, she and Gu Jinyue were neighbors separated by a wall.

The two grew up together and were close friends with deep feelings.

Gu Jinyue was the same age as Lu Qiyun. She was born nearly half a year younger than Lu Qiyun, but her face looked nearly ten years older than Lu Qiyun.

A few years after Lu Qiyun got married, Gu Jinyue's father also arranged a marriage for her. She married Jia Senqin, the second son of Jia Renxiao of the Yu family.

At this time, Lu Qiyun stopped beside her and said something to her. Gu Jinyue nodded, and then took out a very delicate small cloth bag from her sleeve pocket.

Gu Jinyue opened the cloth bag, took out the eyebrow pencil, contouring, blush, eye shadow and lip balm, and put on a light makeup for herself at a very fast speed.

When she finished her makeup, Shen Linfeng could not help but be stunned.

Gu Jinyue's facial features were obviously more three-dimensional than before. The spots on her face were covered, and she applied a little blush and cinnamon brown lip balm, and her complexion instantly improved.

In the housekeeper's mansion, the noble lady's temperament of beauty and dignity was fully displayed!

At this time, her cheeks were white and rosy, her facial features were bright and gentle, and the visual age difference with Lu Qiyun was shortened at once.

If Shen Chaoyan was here at this time, Shen Linfeng would definitely give Shen Chaoyan a thumbs up and praise her, saying "awesome"!

Just based on Gu Jinyue's walking advertisement, he could foresee that their new shop would be full of money.

"Mrs. Jia, what did you use? It's amazing! It's like a magic trick, as if you suddenly became ten years younger!"

This sentence was somewhat offensive.

However, Gu Jinyue didn't care.

She curled her lips and replied enthusiastically, "This is a portable beauty bag. If I don't have time to put on makeup before going out, it's very convenient to carry it with me. If the lip balm is removed while drinking tea or eating, I can touch up my makeup in time."

As soon as she finished speaking, a young girl smiled and said, "Beauty makeup, beauty makeup, you become beautiful after putting on makeup, this name is really wonderful!"

"Hearing what you said, having a beauty bag, you can put on makeup anytime and anywhere. If you have to go out for something urgent, you can also put on makeup and touch up makeup in the carriage. It's really great!" "

I usually don't dare to eat big mouthfuls when I go out, for fear that the lip balm will be eaten up. If I buy a beauty bag, can't I eat a feast with open arms?"

"Eh? Madam Jia, this little glass bottle smells so good, what's in it?" There was a transparent glass bottle filled with light pink liquid in the beauty bag. The bottle was square and the neck was slender. It looked very delicate and immediately attracted the attention of a lady.

"This is perfume." Gu Jinyue generously opened the transparent glass bottle and poured some liquid on the lady's wrist. "Smell it."

As the lady raised her arm, the women standing next to her also smelled the amber wood fragrance from her sleeves with some sweet fruity fragrance. The fragrance was rich and full of layers.

The refreshing fragrance made people feel happier.

"This smells much better than the sachet!"

Gu Jinyue smiled and nodded, "Yes! And the fragrance is very long-lasting. I sprayed some perfume on my sleeves when I got up early this morning. Now I can still smell the fragrance when I get close!"

This beauty bag looks small, but it contains a lot of surprises!

The women present, whether married or unmarried, have a deep interest in Gu Jinyue's beauty bag.

"Mrs. Jia, where did you buy your beauty bag?"

"I want to know too! I really need such a beauty bag!" "

Mrs. Jia, tell us quickly! No matter how much money it sells for, I must have it!" Mrs. Wei

saw that everyone ran to watch Gu Jinyue's beauty bag, and she was so angry that she threw away the lip balm given by Shen Qingwan on the spot. Broken

thing!

It made her look so ugly!

The lady who had just been humiliated by Madam Wei took all of this into account and tried to make things difficult for Madam Wei.

She walked up to Gu Jinyue and deliberately raised her voice to tease Madam Wei, "Madam Jia, this beauty bag of yours is not sold in the capital, is it?"

"This set was given to me by a friend. The shop is located on the busiest Dongchang Street, called Yueji. It just opened today. You can go shopping when you have time. I heard that the shopkeeper also has a shop in Jiangnan. Maybe it is opened by the same boss!"

"A woman dresses to please herself. What a good name! I'll go and have a look tomorrow and buy a beauty bag like yours!"

"I'll go tomorrow too and see if there are any other good things in the shop!"

"My rouge and powder are almost used up. I'll go check it out tomorrow!" Seeing that the publicity was so effective, Lu Qiyun sounded calm, but in her heart she had already praised Shen Chaoyan eighteen times.

As expected of her daughter, she must have inherited her intelligence! Those

who can enter the palace to attend the empress dowager's birthday banquet are all well-known figures in the capital. As long as the goods in the shop can attract the attention of these people, not only can they sell more goods in the future, but they can also sell them at a higher price. Just as

Lu Qiyun was thinking, a shrill voice rang in everyone's ears, "The Emperor is here - the Empress Dowager is here!"

"Greetings to the Emperor! Greetings to the Empress Dowager!"

The officials and their families who were chatting and laughing saluted one after another.

"Stand up."

Sikong Xian scanned the crowd and said in a gentle voice, "Today we are holding a banquet to celebrate the birthday of my mother. The whole palace is celebrating. You don't need to be polite. Please take your seats and enjoy your drink."

Everyone took up their wine glasses from the table and said in unison, "I wish the Queen Mother good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the South Mountain!"

The Queen Mother was wearing a dark purple brocade palace dress today. The body of the robe was embroidered with blooming peonies in gold thread, which made her look even more elegant and noble.

She looked around and said with a smile, "Everyone is thoughtful."

When they sat down, the palace maids immediately came forward to pour wine. Everyone toasted each other and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and lively. After

three rounds of wine, officials came to the main seat one after another and presented the Queen Mother with their carefully prepared gifts.

The gifts these people gave can be summed up in four words -

very valuable.

Shen Qingwan looked at them and couldn't help but pull a trace of disdain at the corner of her mouth.

The Queen Mother has lived in the palace for decades. What kind of rare treasures has she not seen?

No matter how expensive these birthday gifts are, the Queen Mother can't even remember who gave them.

But her gift is different.

It will definitely refresh everyone present!

Thinking of this, she stood up and bowed in the direction of the Queen Mother, "I have also prepared a small gift for the Queen Mother, I hope the Queen Mother will not dislike it."

"Oh?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "I wonder what Concubine Wan has prepared?"

As the Queen Mother spoke, everyone's eyes gathered in Shen Qingwan's direction.

Shen Qingwan knew that her chance to become famous had come!
