Qi Yan felt relieved when he heard his aunt say this.
Lin Shuang thought that the village chief might have known about the unusual backgrounds of these children long ago.
He personally saved Xiao Yi's life in the mountains. The village chief must have known how badly Xiao Yi was injured at that time. Several children were brought back inexplicably and were being hunted down. Did the village chief really not know about it?
Lin Shuang looked up at the sky, perhaps he knew.
From the moment the village chief rescued Xiao Yi, he was already in the same boat with them.
The children returned to the yard, laughing happily and continuing to play games.
Lin Shuang wanted to go to the village chief's house with her things.
Xiao Yi parked the carriage and followed Lin Shuang.
Lin Shuang took a quick glance, then immediately retracted her gaze and continued walking forward.
Xiao Yi pursed his lips and frowned slightly.
The two walked one in front and one behind.
Seeing that Xiao Yi was about to catch up and play, Lin Shuang quickened her pace.
Seeing that Lin Shuang was in such a depressed mood, Xiao Yi immediately quickened his pace to catch up with Lin Shuang.
Lin Shuang tilted her head to take a look, blushing a little, an embarrassed blush of being exposed.
It then returned to normal speed.
The villagers they met on the road would greet them and thank Lin Shuang for bringing them new income.
"Lin Shuang, Yi boy, you are back?"
"Well, I'm back. I have something important to discuss with the village chief. Let's see if this is feasible."
"What's the matter?" Immediately, an aunt stopped and stopped walking.
Watching this matter with curiosity.
If Lin Shuang can discuss something with the village chief, that would be a great thing. She should ask about it. If Lin Shuang feels it is inconvenient, she will not ask.
Lin Shuang thought it was nothing, and after thinking about it, he simply told her his plan.
"I'm planning to build a workshop to produce rouge and powder, and then sell them to others. I'll build it in our village and hire some people to work there. The monthly salary is good, and there are days off. I'll also give out gifts during festivals and Chinese New Year."
"Really? This is such a happy event, Lin Shuang, you guys go quickly, I'll go tell the villagers."
Lin Shuang smiled and felt that this kind of expectation for life was pretty good.
Keep walking forward, and soon you will arrive at the village chief's house.
"Uncle Village Chief, I have something to tell you."
Lin Shuang took a step forward, followed closely by Xiao Yi.
"Lin Shuang, Yi boy, you are here." The village chief was smoking a pipe. The tobacco was grown by his family. It was not easy to smoke, but it was good because he didn't spend much money.
He Guihua also saw the two of them, greeted them with a smile, and went into the house to make two cups of sugar water.
Although my family can't afford brown sugar water, but Lin Shuang and Xiao Yi are so good to my family, we must drink brown sugar water.
"Come on, drink some water."
Lin Shuang took the teacup and saw that the color inside was not transparent. A faint sweet smell came from the tip of her nose.
I knew it was brown sugar water, smiled knowingly, blew on it, drank a few sips slowly and put it on the table.
"Uncle Village Chief, Auntie, I came here this time just to tell you that I have decided to build a workshop in the village specifically for the production of rouge and powder."
"Lin Shuang, you have to really think it through. Building a workshop and investing manpower, material resources, and financial resources will cost a lot of money."
Although the village chief was very happy that Lin Shuang could now build a workshop, he was afraid that Lin Shuang was just doing it on a whim and would suffer a lot of losses.
The village chief's anxiety and worry were evident on his face, but Lin Shuang felt a little worried.
"Uncle Village Chief, don't worry, I've already thought of all this. I still have a lot of silver on hand, enough. I've already successfully made it at home in the past few days."
"I brought it here, Auntie. You're a woman too. Take a look. What do you think of this rouge and powder?"
Lin Shuang took out cosmetics one by one from the small cloth bag she carried with her.
"This is an eyebrow pencil, the same indigo we usually use to draw eyebrows. This is facial balm, this is lip balm, and this is eyeshadow, specifically for use on the eyelids. It's a dry powder, and it's better to apply directly than lip balm."
When He Guihua saw the rouge and powder in front of her, she was so surprised that she didn't know how to react.
There are so many, and they are completely different from the rouge and powder you usually see. They look much better than ordinary rouge and powder.
"Auntie, try it and see how it works?"
"Oh." He Guihua rubbed her hands excitedly. No woman didn't like these lands, but they didn't buy them because they didn't have money.
He Guihua didn't know how long it had been since she last put on rouge and powder.
Lin Shuang was teaching He Guihua on the side.
Lin Shuang put makeup on He Guihua. "It looks really good."
"Don't laugh at me, I'm old. How can I be pretty? You're the one who's pretty."
He Guihua was very satisfied and took out a bronze mirror to look at herself. This bronze mirror was her dowry.
"Auntie, you're talking nonsense again. How can I be old? I'm only in my 40s, how can I be old?"
Lin Shuang was also surprised at the age at which people in ancient times got married and had children. Girls got married and had children at around 15 years old, and started dating at the age of 13.
Lin Shuang has reason to suspect that the bleeding during a woman's first night is caused by the tearing of her body structure due to its incomplete development.
This is extremely harmful to women's bodies. Lin Shuang strongly disapproves of having children under the age of 18. Otherwise, many women in ancient times would have died early due to heavy bleeding during childbirth, which is simply too scary.
I still remember that before I came here, I saw news about a young woman who died during childbirth. Lin Shuang felt that it would be better to have a child only after ensuring her good health.
I'll have to talk this over with my kids at home later. They are not allowed to get married before they are 18 years old.
"Lin Shuang, you are so sweet. I am old and don't have many years left to live."
"Auntie, you are talking nonsense again. I hope you and uncle can live to be a hundred years old." Lin Shuang scolded jokingly.
"You kid." He Guihua knew it was unlikely, but she was still happy in her heart.
"Auntie, this is the rouge and powder I want to sell. What do you think? Is it good?"
"It works great. I've never used anything so good before."
"That's fine. I'll go to the county magistrate's mansion tomorrow and give them to the county magistrate's wife and his daughter."
Lin Shuang thought that Meng Yuan's face could be treated, and it would not be good to delay it for too long.
"Lin Shuang, you also know the county magistrate's wife?" He Guihua exclaimed in surprise.
“Yes, I recognized my adoptive mother in town yesterday. The county magistrate came and asked me to help his daughter.
I followed him into the mansion, and after seeing Meng Yuan's face, I knew she could be cured, so I have to go see Meng Yuan's face again in the next few days."
"So that's how it is, Lin Shuang, you're really promising. You can even handle the county magistrate's family with ease."
He Guihua really thought that Lin Shuang was very capable. There were not many women like her in their village.
