Miss Wu listened to Concubine Wang's scolding and thought about what the King of Mobei had just said. She was so frightened that she quickly stood up and bowed to Concubine Wang, saying, "Concubine Wang, I didn't mean to target Miss Yu. I just spoke my mind without restraint. I hope Concubine Wang will calm down. I won't dare to do that again."
Yu Jinshu thought, if it wasn't directed at her, then what could it be?
Speaking your mind without restraint is not naivety, but stupidity.
But she can't care about these things at this time, but should be more generous.
She smiled calmly at Miss Wu and said, "Miss Wu is right. I am the daughter of the former King Kaiyang. However, Miss Wu is a little mistaken."
When the last sentence was said, everyone became curious and stretched their necks to listen.
Miss Wu frowned: "What did I say wrong?"
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "Miss Wu just said that my father was exiled to Mobei for treason. I want to make it clear that my father did not commit treason."
Miss Wu spoke frankly again: "But the document says that Prince Kaiyang was exiled to Mobei for treason."
Yu Jinshu smiled calmly and said, "Miss Wu, you might as well check the law to see how treason is punished. The reason why my Yu family was exiled to Mobei was ostensibly because of treason, but in reality, there was no such thing. If there was, I'm afraid we wouldn't have lived to see Mobei."
These girls were all from aristocratic families and official households, and they had some knowledge. They understood what was said immediately. The document said that the Yu family had committed treason, but in fact they had not committed treason. This meant that the charges against the Yu family were false, and that they were harmed by treacherous officials, and that the emperor was afraid of the Yu family.
Yu Jinshu didn't want everyone to focus on her family affairs, so she took out a handkerchief, dipped it in water from her teacup, and looked at the girls.
"You all think I have rouge and powder on my face, but I really don't. Why don't I wipe my face with a wet handkerchief and show you, then you'll know."
The girls all looked at Yu Jinshu with curiosity, waiting for her next move.
Yu Jinshu dipped her handkerchief in water from the teacup, wiped her cheeks with it, and then showed it to everyone, "You can see, I really don't have any rouge or powder on my face."
One girl said, "Put it on harder."
Bo held Yu Jinshu back and said, "Jinshu, that's not necessary. I trust you."
Yu Jinshu looked at Bo with a smile: "Princess Dowager Wang, it's okay. I am happy to discuss these topics with you ladies."
She wet the handkerchief with a little more water, wiped it hard on her face, and then showed it to everyone.
The girls leaned over to look at the handkerchief in Yu Jinshu's hand, and sure enough, there was none!
"Miss Yu, you don't wear any rouge or powder, and you're exposed to this cold every day. How do you keep your face so well protected?"
This is what all the girls present, including the Queen Mother, want to ask.
Yu Jinshu put down the wet handkerchief in his hand and said with a smile: "I do have a secret recipe to protect the skin on my face."
At this time, she already had an amazing way to make money in her mind.
She said, "I originally wanted to wait until next spring to open a makeup shop in Xiyue City, make the few secret recipes I know, and sell them in the shop."
When these words came out, the girls were very excited.
They are not short of money and don't have to worry about money. They are only worried about whether the cream made with Yu Jinshu's secret recipe can be sold. They all want to be as beautiful as Miss Yu.
One girl said, "Miss Yu, why don't you take some time these days to make this cream and sell it to me?"
Yu Jinshu glanced at Miss Wu and smiled, "You just heard Miss Wu say that my family was exiled to Mobei and is currently reclaiming wasteland outside Beijing. With over 200 members of our Yu family, we've only built a few mud houses to shelter from the wind and snow, so we really don't have room to make those expensive face creams."
The girls all felt regretful. They wished they could take advantage of the next two days in Xiyue City to buy the facial cream that Yu Jinshu mentioned.
At this time, Bo said, "How about this? Jinshu, you can stay in the palace for the next few days. Since your recipe is a secret, I will arrange a secluded courtyard for you to make the cream. This way, you can earn some money before the New Year to support your family."
Although she didn't want Yu Jinshu to be her daughter-in-law, she really wanted to help the Yu family.
Yu Jinshu didn't expect that Concubine Dowager Wang would let her live in the palace. Wouldn't that give her a chance to get close to Huo Qi?
However, she couldn't agree immediately, so she just pretended to hesitate.
Bo added, "Jinshu, I will also let them stay in the palace for a few more days."
These girls came from far away and couldn't rush back. They originally planned to stay for one night and return tomorrow.
The girls were very happy to hear that they could stay here for a few more days.
"Miss Yu, since Concubine Wang has kindly invited you to stay in the palace, why not follow her wishes and stay here peacefully to help her and us make the cream."
"Yes! Miss Yu, just agree to it! We all want to buy face cream from you, and no matter what price you offer, we will take it.
Yu Jinshu said, "My cream is indeed a bit expensive, because the medicinal materials are priceless."
When they heard that medicinal herbs were priceless, some girls who were not so favored at home or whose fathers were honest officials became a little hesitant.
One girl asked, "Miss Yu, why don't you name a price and see if we can afford it?"
Yu Jinshu smiled and said, "I have a connection with you girls. We are able to meet here today at the Mobei Palace. Once the cream is ready, I will only charge you the cost. It's priced at one thousand taels of silver per bottle. After using one bottle, I guarantee that your skin will be several times better than usual, and the effect will last for a year. If you can use it for three consecutive years, it will last for ten years without a problem. If you girls want skin that looks exactly like mine, you have to adjust it internally."
A girl asked, "Excuse me, Miss Yu, how do I adjust internally?"
Yu Jinshu said, "Internal conditioning is about regulating the Qi, blood, and five internal organs. Only then can the skin be translucent and flawless. If combined with a face cream, it can achieve the same skin as I have now."
Seeing that the girls were all so happy that they wanted to jump, she continued, "The medicine for internal treatment is also one thousand taels of silver per bottle. After taking it, all the girls' ailments, big or small, will be much better. As long as you can sit less and walk more every day, and avoid eating too much greasy food, the effect will be guaranteed for three to five years."
Bo said, "Jinshu cured my lung disease. Her medicine can bring people back to life. I believe the cream and internal medicine she mentioned are just as miraculous."
Miss Wu was the first to speak: "Miss Yu, I will order three bottles of facial cream and two bottles of internal medicine from you."
Miss Xia came forward and said, "Miss Yu, I also want three bottles of face cream and two bottles of internal medicine."
With two leaders in the group, everyone became extremely generous. Except for two girls who only wanted one bottle of facial cream and one bottle of internal medicine, the other girls all asked for three bottles of facial cream and two bottles of internal medicine.
Yu Jinshu didn't expect that he would make a fortune during this trip to the palace.
The key is that she can still stay in the palace for a few days.
