Chapter 272 Glass Mirror



Zhao Qingyan's makeup was completed quickly.

Zhao Qingyan's skin was already fair, with no visible pores, so she didn't bother to apply any foundation or similar products.

Instead, after skincare, I lightly patted on some loose powder to make sure that my makeup wouldn't clump due to excessive oil.

Zhao Qingyi was born with a beautiful face.

Therefore, Zhao Qingyan simply darkened and lengthened her eyebrows, focusing on her eye makeup, making her eyes look more deep and charming, and also appearing much larger than usual.

The orange-red blush was just right, and with a thin layer of lip gloss, the whole person looked like a completely different person.

When Zhao Qingyi saw her entire face in the mirror, she was quite surprised.

She covered her face, "Is this really me?" She was incredibly excited.

After receiving a response, Zhao Qingyi examined herself in the mirror again.

"Oh my god, I finally know why Wang Huaijing can't forget me. It turns out it's because he likes my face. I'm so beautiful."

Everyone laughed so hard they could barely stand up straight when they heard Zhao Qingyi's boastful words.

Zhao Qingyan looked at Zhao Qingyi looking in the mirror and felt awkward. After thinking for a long time, she realized that Zhao Qingyi was looking in a bronze mirror.

Although it's been polished very smooth, the color doesn't look quite right.

After counting the number of women in the room, he said "wait" and ran back to his own room.

I found the mirror I bought at the small commodity wholesale market when I was stockpiling goods.

At the time, I was worried that I wouldn't know where I would end up wearing those clothes, so I bought mirrors with wooden frames.

After selecting eight wooden-grained makeup mirrors, I went to Zhao Qingyi's room.

"Come, come, here comes the good stuff. Don't say I'm stingy, this mirror is all part of my dowry for you."

Zhao Qingyan's words were clearly an attempt to find an excuse to give herself a gift, especially since she had recently taken her girlfriends to buy jewelry, which was already quite extravagant.

Huang looked at herself in the mirror and almost threw it away.

Who is this old woman?

"Hahaha, Grandma, that's you!" said Zhao Qinghe, the naive little girl who couldn't read the room.

Huang picked up the mirror again and examined herself closely.

"Oh my, all these years, I still thought I was the most beautiful girl in the village, but I've grown so old."

Look at the wrinkles on her face, they could trap a mosquito!

Now I know why I don't attract mosquitoes; they're afraid of getting pinched to death by all the wrinkles on my face. Hahaha…

Huang chuckled to herself, examining her face from left to right, finally confirming that her features were actually quite good, only her skin was a bit lacking.

Then, his eyes swept over his beloved daughter.

Zhao Qingyan sensed the urgent look in Huang's eyes and understood.

He took Huang's arm.

"Grandma, I'll find you some balm or something to apply later, and your skin will feel much better."

Huang's eyes lit up, and she stopped looking in the mirror. Anyway, no matter how she looked at her face, it was just a bunch of wrinkles, so there was nothing to see.

Huang was filled with envy as she watched her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, and granddaughter looking at themselves in the mirror.

The consequence of envy is the desire to cause trouble.

"Look at you all, so ignorant and naive. You're only now realizing what your faces actually look like?"

Let me tell you, this mirror is extremely valuable.

You all need to keep these carefully. Don't show them off.

If you were to sell this mirror, it would easily fetch several thousand taels of silver.

Don't gossip and let outsiders know, or they might start having inappropriate thoughts.

You must also remember how good my dear daughter is.

If she hadn't been so generous and learned such skills, how could she have been willing to spend money to buy you such precious items?

This thing is fragile and easily damaged, so you have to be careful when using it.

Keep it in the bedroom, lest some careless person steal it. Got it?

Also, now that our family has some assets, remember not to let your friends into your bedroom.

The bedroom is the most private place.

We were already being quite friendly by being received in your living room. It was very nice, like when you just came back from town.

The sisters who come can stay in the pavilion at the foot of the mountain to receive guests; it's good to keep a proper distance.

Human hearts cannot withstand testing.

Especially when everyone's lives were similar before, and suddenly one day you are living a life of luxury while others are still eating wild vegetables and cornbread, it's hard not to feel envious.

Therefore, you should always be careful.

Don't let anyone tell you they're good friends and then pour out your heart and soul to them, revealing all your savings.

That's not sincerity, that's stupidity..."

Blah blah blah, a long lecture ensued. Just moments before, she had been happy to receive the precious glass mirror, but now it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

I really want to say that this is something we can't afford, but no one can bear to give it up, after all, it's a good thing that money can't buy.

Moreover, they don't have money, or rather, they don't have that much money.

Zhao Qingyan couldn't help but laugh as she watched Huang Shi speaking so confidently and the women clinging to the mirror like quails.

Just as she was enduring the hardship, Huang's attacks turned towards Zhao Qingyan.

"And you, my dear, I'm not saying this to criticize you."

Do you have too much money to burn? Buying all this expensive stuff. I know you mean well, but this is just too wasteful.

If you continue to be so extravagant in the future, don't be surprised if Grandma gives you a good slap.

Zhao Qingyan immediately covered her not-so-full buttocks with both hands. It would be too embarrassing to be spanked.

There is one more quail.

After Huang finished reprimanding everyone, she felt satisfied.

She thought to herself, "Hmph, I was young once too. No matter how beautiful you are now, you still have to listen to me. Let you be beautiful for now."

The prettier you are, the more beautiful I was when I was young.

If everyone could hear Huang's true feelings, they would probably say, "How shameless!"

After the alarm was lifted, everyone became even more cautious when looking at themselves in their mirrors, afraid that they might accidentally drop them and cause trouble.

The makeup contest continued, and Zhao Qingyan not only taught everyone how to use the items in her makeup kit, but also taught some makeup techniques.

It's quite interesting to watch a room full of "women" putting on makeup in front of the mirror.

Because Huang had just given everyone a lesson, Zhao Qingyan didn't dare to give them any more cosmetics.

Perhaps women are born with a natural talent for dressing themselves up. After half an hour, the makeup on the women's faces looked very natural and elegant.

They even found the areas they needed to modify, and the parts of their faces that best highlighted their beauty.

For example, Zhao Qingyi's eyes are the most beautiful, Qinglin's nose is the most pert, and Qinghe's small mouth is like a flower petal...
