Chapter 18



"Why is your face sunburned? Sister-in-law, you have to take care of yourself and take good care of your skin." Wen Xin rummaged through her bag and took out a box with handwritten letters on it that only she could understand. It was actually the abbreviation of lavender, which was the lavender essential oil extracted by her system.

Under a long corridor pavilion in the military area, which is usually used for people to cool off, a few people were chatting and watching. Wen Xin gently dipped her fingers in some essential oil and applied it on the red face of a woman in her thirties.

"Wen Xin, this smell is so strong." Li Weihong covered her nose.

Wen Xin didn't think much of it. This was the smell of lavender. She said casually, "This is the Chinese medicine oil I made. It's very good for sunburns. It's also very useful for taking a bath."

The other people looked at the man's face curiously. The red areas were shiny after applying the oil. The woman with a short-sleeved shirt and sunburn on her face also said, "It feels much better after applying this stuff. It doesn't sting as much. I went back to my hometown with my husband this time. My mother-in-law insisted on dragging me to the fields to do farm work. Look at how sunburned my face is. She just doesn't like me."

The person next to him said, "Oh, it's all the same. If you have a good relationship with someone, you should go back less often in the future."

"I do want to." She complained, turned around and smiled at Wen Xin who was packing her bag, "Thank you, it's all thanks to your medicated oil, otherwise I would have gotten a sunburn."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, why are you being so polite to me? It's just a piece of cake." Wen Xin also smiled back and put the bag aside happily. Relying on the recipe she learned from her great aunt who was a "person in the palace", she sold or gave away facial oil to many people in the compound, and became a familiar face in a very short time.

Wen Xin tells everyone she meets about her skin care methods. After all, her beauty and skin quality are there, and everyone who sees her will envy her. Her little face doesn't even have pores, and it's white, tender and moisturized.

Of course there would be no obvious pores. How could these people know the effort she put into taking care of herself? After all, she graduated from an art school, so she must pay more attention to her skin than ordinary people.

What's more, everything she used was produced by the system, that is, the food she ate was the essence extracted by the system. With the same amount, half of the food others eat is dregs, while she eats twice as much essence as others, without any dregs.

It is by taking care of herself from the inside out that she is in her current state. Of course, she uses natural plant extracts that shrink pores every day.

No matter how ugly a woman is, she loves beauty. Who doesn't want skin as white as a reflector like Wen Xin? There is nothing wrong with this if there is no comparison. Once compared, Wen Xin's skin is as white as a piece of exquisite porcelain, which makes them look like clay jars. There is a little gap in their hearts. It's natural and there is nothing they can do about it. But now they know that she has been using this thing, and it came from the palace. Of course, they bought it without hesitation to try. A whiter size is fine.

The compound is full of military families. They can't be said to be very wealthy, but their consumption is definitely higher than that of ordinary people. So, in just a few days, she sold more than 30 boxes. Of course, she didn't have any boxes, she brought her own. She just asked He Wenyan for an empty box she had used, which was half the size of a palm and flat. She used it to measure. Wen Xin estimated that it was only 20ml.

20ml costs five yuan, and if you use it carefully, it can last for more than a month. If several people come to buy it together, she will give a little more, so it can be considered a half-sale and half-gift. She has probably earned more than a hundred yuan now.

Of course, there are still some people who are waiting and watching and don't want to spend money to buy her products. They also say that her products look cheap and are not as good as the pearl cream sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives. Wen Xin just wants to laugh. Her products are not comparable to the white, thick and heavy cream that looks like lard in this era. They are not on the same level.

These people don’t understand. Do they know how many flowers and plants are extracted from to make one drop of essential oil? All products produced by the system are high-quality products. There are no inferior products at all. Even the base oils for blending are the best quality extracted by the system. Even the alcohol is extracted by the system. It can be said that every drop poured out is the natural concentrated essence of plants.

How could there be more exquisite cosmetics in this day and age? She would lose money if she sold it for 5 yuan for 20 ml. It was just that she was short of money now and had no source of income, so she had no choice. She was too lazy to waste her time arguing with someone who didn't know the value of the product.

"Wen Xin, what is your Xinlan oil made of? Why is it so fragrant? I applied a little in the morning and I could still smell the fragrance in the evening." One of the sisters-in-law asked curiously.

Wen Xin didn't name the product she sold at first. It was only after more and more people bought it that she came up with a name after someone asked her about it. Because it had the scent of orchid, and with her own name added, she called it Xinlan Oil. There are actually several levels of scent in it, and the orchid scent lingers the longest.

"It's very troublesome. There are several medicinal herbs in it. I won't tell you the specific method, but I dare say that if you keep using this oil, your skin will be in very good condition. When you are forty, your skin will be as good as that of a twenty-year-old girl."

She didn't exaggerate, of course she exaggerated a little bit, but it does contain several kinds of medicinal herbs, and ginseng dew is also mixed in. It is nourishing for sure and it cannot be ineffective. The only drawback is that it is not very hydrating. However, she sprays the hydrating dew she made every morning and evening and remembers to hydrate herself at all times, so it's not so bad.

Several women stared at Wen Xin's delicate little face with green eyes. Yes, who doesn't want such a beautiful face? Wen Xin had unknowingly used herself to paint a big pie for them and put up a sign that they could see the effect.

"If you take good care of yourself, you can retain your youth." Wen Xin began her daily brainwashing again, "Sister-in-law, don't disbelieve me. If you take good care of yourself from now on, in ten years, you will be a generation older than your peers. Twenty years later, when you stand next to them, you will be like mother and daughter. I am not exaggerating at all.

This is the most obvious difference between those who take care of themselves and those who don’t. As a woman, who wants to have a face full of wrinkles and look like an old woman? When you get old, you don’t even dare to look in the mirror. How terrible is that?

You are only in your thirties now, with no wrinkles on your face and healthy skin. If you can start loving yourself and your skin from now on, wash your face frequently and moisturize it, and apply more of my palace secret recipe, I guarantee that you will be able to maintain your current state ten or twenty years later. By then, when you and your husband stand together, you will still be a thirty-year-old beauty, but they will all be sixty-year-old old men. Who would not say that they are old cows eating young grass..."

Wen Xin started to talk nonsense, which made several women laugh. One of them pointed at Wen Xin and said, "Hey, little girl, you don't want to get married. You dare to say that an old cow eats young grass? Is this what an unmarried girl would say? If someone hears this, who would dare to marry you?"

Wen Xin said innocently: "I'm just telling my sister-in-law."

The wife of Xiao Sun from the logistics department who came to buy orchid oil for the first time was standing by and watching Wen Xin. In the middle of summer, she had her hair tied into a ponytail, revealing her forehead. Her full head made her look very smart. She was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, but this shirt was not as baggy as the white shirts nowadays. Instead, it was slim and followed the curve of the body without any wide gaps.

The collar is also square, and two buttons on the chest are open, revealing a swan-like graceful neck. Her skin is white and translucent. One can imagine that the girl has such white skin all over her body. When she talked to them, her eyebrows were smiling, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. Under the shirt was a blue skirt with small white flowers. The hem of the shirt was tucked into the skirt, which made her waist look more slender and beautiful. Her snow-white calves were exposed outside the skirt, and she wore a pair of beige heeled sandals on her feet. Her little toes were really rare.

This little girl is really outstanding in appearance. She is graceful and adorable wherever she stands. I heard that she has not been married yet. This is in the compound, and there are several young guys who can't reach her. If she were somewhere else, she would have been snatched away home long ago. It's rare that she speaks so openly and eloquently. Although she is now a nanny in the leader's house, I heard that her family works in a meat processing factory and her father is a director of some kind.

It is not clear why his family sent their daughter in to serve others. She is probably related to He Wenyan and came to work as a maid for a few days. It seems that she will not stay for long. With her conditions and looks, she is really one in a hundred. She is pretty and rare. All women like her when they see her, let alone men.

Sun Xuecheng's wife looked at her for a long time, and then she said to her half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Wen Xin, you don't have a partner now, right? I'll introduce you to someone, and I guarantee you'll like the conditions."

condition? No matter how good the conditions are, can they be as good as modern ones?

"What does he do?" Wen Xin asked casually.

Seeing that she didn't refuse, Sun Xuecheng's wife thought it was a good idea, so she sat next to Wen Xin and said, "I see, you are eighteen years old, almost old enough to get married. In my hometown, people get married at the age of sixteen, and eighteen is considered old. You can't delay it any longer."

Wen Xin: “…” Twenty-eight is not too late, but the age of marriage varies from generation to generation, so it’s hard to say anything.

Besides, she hasn't had a boyfriend for a long time, and she has never had a boyfriend of this age, so she doesn't know what it feels like.

Although she has never reached the last step in modern times, she still enjoys her boyfriend's careful care. Maybe it's because of her age. She feels that her body is like a ripe peach, constantly emitting a rich fragrance. She also had a wet dream last night. Although she forgot the other person's face when she woke up in the morning, she remembered his muscles clearly, which were hard and elastic. She kept pinching them...

"I'm introducing this tall, fair-skinned guy. He comes from a well-off family. He works in a state-owned store, and he's not just a salesperson, he's the manager. I tell you, his qualifications are one in a million. Many girls in state-owned stores and restaurants and stores have taken a fancy to him and want to marry him, but he has high standards and insists on finding someone he's satisfied with. He doesn't want to settle for anything less. He's been so picky that he's already over 26..."

Wen Xin was a little absent-minded at first. As someone who had experienced the era of the later explosion of stars, her vision and spiritual level were far behind those of people of this era. Unless the other person had advantages that she didn't have, or advantages that she appreciated...

Um? Wait, "state stores?"

Seeing that she was interested, Sun Xuecheng's wife said, "Yes, he works in a state-owned store. He is now the director. He was promoted this year. He earns more than 100 yuan a month, and there are various subsidies. Think about it, can the conditions in a state-owned store be bad? What doesn't he have at home? How is it? I'll take you to have a look one day."

What Wen Xin was interested in was not the person, nor the salary of more than 100 yuan. She was mainly thinking that if it was a state-owned store, there must be a channel to sell her Xinlan oil. After all, she wanted to save money to buy a house and settle down in the south.

How long will it take for three or five people in the compound to make money? She had to think of other ways. If she could get to know someone in the state-owned store, she could ask for the channel.

So she immediately smiled and said, "Okay, since my sister-in-law mentioned it, I will definitely take a look at it."
