Just as Li Yingxiao was thinking about how to help the Chinese Academy of Sciences expand the scale of perfume production, in Da Qi, on a famous commercial street in the capital, Zheng Yourong was also discussing perfume with Wei Caier.
"This orchid scent is something we just developed. It's different from the previous perfumes. This one smells more elegant and very suitable for Sister Cai'er."
"Also, this is a facial cream that was just developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Compared to the hand creams we used before, the facial cream is easier to absorb. And after applying the facial cream, the effect of using rouge and powder will be better."
Zheng Yourong took out all the cutting-edge and popular products of Daqi as if they were her treasures, and she did not hide anything in front of Wei Caier.
Wei Cai'er couldn't let go of the glass bottle and said, "This shape is really beautiful. How is it made? This is the first time I've seen this kind of hazy glass. Just like what Brother Lu said, it has a hazy beauty, like the moon half-covered by colorful clouds."
If Lu Chen was in this place, he would definitely not be able to help but complain, it's just a frosted glass, why is it praised like this?
Wei Caier also smiled and nodded, "Brother Lu said at the beginning that you would definitely like this look. He really understands you."
"Oh, Sister Yourong, you're such a fool! You only know how to make fun of me!" Wei Cai'er covered her face with her hands, looking shy. After a long while, she spoke softly, "I don't know how long it will take for Brother Lu to come back this time. I heard that things aren't going well for him in the south. Some local people are trying to make things difficult for him."
Zheng Yourong also sighed, "Yeah, I don't know what those people are thinking. If the epidemic can't be controlled, they will be the ones who suffer."
"Master said that some people in the local area have been possessed by evil spirits and dared to hinder such an important matter. The court will not let them off easily!"
As she was speaking, Madam Wei came out of the dressing room accompanied by a group of maids.
At this moment, she had changed her clothes into the most fashionable clothes in Da Qi, which were new summer styles launched on the commercial street.
This style of Mrs. Wei's is designed for women in their forties. It is graceful, gorgeous, and carefully designed. It is very cool to wear, and the material is also very good and very skin-friendly.
Of course, this is not what makes Mrs. Wei most satisfied. What Mrs. Wei is most satisfied with is the attitude of the maids and Zheng Yourong towards her.
Zheng Yourong's words at that time made Mrs. Wei very happy. Zheng Yourong told her that when she came here, she should just treat it as her own home.
Yes, this is Lu Chen’s property. If my daughter works harder, this will be our home in the future.
When I think about those famous wealthy ladies in Beijing who want to come in and try on the latest fashions of this year, they have to make an appointment in advance and use connections to find ways.
If she wanted to wear these things, she only had to ask her daughter. Mrs. Wei felt so superior that she almost floated up.
In fact, Mrs. Wei has not had an easy life these years. With a husband like Wei Yong, it is really difficult for her to integrate into the circle of upper-class ladies in Da Qi.
How could she, the wife of a censor, get along so well with the women of other families?
Maybe the good sister you are being intimate with today will be sent to the Music Bureau by her husband, the Imperial Censor, tomorrow.
This kind of thing happened more than once or twice. Over time, the ladies and young ladies from wealthy families kept their distance from the Wei family.
It was impossible for Mrs. Wei to have no thoughts in her mind, but they were dependent on the royal family, so what else could she do?
Over the years, she just pretended not to hear the gossip and rumors spread behind her back.
Otherwise, if she took everything seriously with those women, she would be angry to death sooner or later.
Mrs. Wei originally thought that this was how her life would be, and she would never have a chance to experience any kind of excitement.
The only thing that made her feel uncomfortable was her daughter's marriage. She thought she would die with regrets.
But who could have imagined that his daughter was so capable that she actually found such a reliable young man, and she even benefited from it.
Ever since Wei Caier mustered up the courage to pick up Lu Chen, the entire capital knew that the eldest daughter of the Wei family and the current imperial preceptor might have a secret that had to be told.
From that day on, the old sisters who had not been in touch for many years started to get in touch again.
Mrs. Wei certainly knew what these people were thinking. Even the married maids of the Zheng family could be managers here for Lu Chen and held great power. Their family had only had their engagement broken off. If they really got together with Lu Chen in the future, wouldn't they have even more say?
When Mrs. Wei thought of the fawning looks of the old sisters, a smile appeared on her face.
After living for so many years, I finally understand life clearly when I get old!
"This dress is a perfect fit for Auntie." Zheng Yourong sighed heartily after helping Madam Wei adjust her clothes. At the same time, she instructed the person beside her, "Make a new one based on this one and send it to the Wei residence within ten days, okay?"
"That won't do. I appreciate my niece's kindness, but we can't accept anything. Master has always taught us that we shouldn't accept anything without merit."
As the wife of the Imperial Censor, Mrs. Wei was very clear about what she could and could not do.
Although she liked the dress very much and looked forward to wearing it to chat with her old sisters, and seeing the envious expressions on their faces, Mrs. Wei finally refused.
But Zheng Yourong was determined to give a gift today. She winked at the person next to her and said, "What are you standing there for? Bring some tea and snacks."
