Huo Yajie readily agreed: "I want a makeup look that's both understated and stunning."
Qiu Xing, who was "waiting in line for her hair to be styled," couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking to herself:
And what about someone as serene and unassuming as a chrysanthemum?
Does this little baby know what "gentle and serene like a chrysanthemum" means?
With Chi Tang's skills, even ghosts wouldn't recognize his paintings, let alone find them amazing.
Miss, you're really playing along.
"Okay."
Chi Tang found the orange-pink rouge, took a small brush, and said in a childish voice, "Close your eyes."
Then he swept it up in a loud bang.
"Ouch, you brushed it on my nose."
"Ahem, you should also sweep a little on the tip of your nose, to make it look shy."
"My ears..."
"Mistake."
"Cough cough cough, you've applied too much powder."
"Miss Ya Jie, lick your lips and then bite this red paper."
"This isn't red paper, it's called lip rouge."
Chi Tang was disgusted.
What kind of lip rouge is it?
It's just a piece of red paper.
It's not convenient at all, and it's only available in a single shade of red.
Yes, there are some shades of red because the amount of force used and the degree of dyeing are different, which results in different shades of color.
"Hey, let's go get some lipstick made."
Chi Tang's eyes sparkled as he slapped the young lady's forehead and said...
Immediately, a small red handprint appeared on Huo Yajie's forehead.
"Tangtang".
Huo Yajie has an extremely good temper.
Chi Tang chuckled foolishly.
"Let's go get some lipstick made."
Chi Tang was in high spirits, feeling that she had discovered the key to making money.
Ancient cosmetics and skincare products were so primitive. If you researched and made your own cosmetics and sold them, you would have made a fortune!
Cosmetics are all inseparable from chemistry, cough cough...
A piece of cake!
What lipstick?
Huo Yajie asked gently as she wiped her face.
Qiu Xing, who was behind, breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Oh my god, thank goodness this little devil has changed her tactics, otherwise she would have come after her again!
"It's for touching your lips, this red paper isn't very useful."
Chi Tang tilted her head and started thinking about what she needed.
Lipstick powder, olive oil, almond oil...
Um, do these things even exist in this era?
"How do we do it?"
"Uh..."
The two, one big and one small, looked at each other in silence.
Qiu Xing, with her round face, complained, "What do you think a little baby like you would know about making lip rouge? Stop teasing my young lady."
"Then, let's make some pretty soaps."
Chi Tang settled for second best.
Soap already existed at this time, though it was rather rough.
And we don't even use it when we take a shower.
You can make some medicated soaps with added Chinese herbal ingredients, which will have different effects when used for bathing and washing your face.
Yes, you can also make some cute molds, and the shapes made from them are extremely adorable.
"Soap?"
"yes."
Huo Yajie, as if remembering something, went and fetched two books. "I remember these two books mentioning how to do it..."
Young girls are all inherently fond of beauty.
Everyone is the same.
Therefore, Huo Yajie has several books on becoming more beautiful and fairer on her bookshelf.
Chi Tang blinked, pointed at herself with her finger, and rolled her eyes: "Are you asking me to look? How stupid."
Do I need to read a book to make handmade soap?
The most important ingredient is caustic soda.
I don't know if caustic soda existed in this era, but if it didn't, it's simple; you can just extract it from wood ash.
The more Chi Tang thought about it, the more excited she became. Seeing Huo Yajie engrossed in her book, she slowly made her way home on her short legs.
As soon as they entered the house, they surrounded their elderly mother and asked if she had any caustic soda.
"What is this? Caustic soda? I've never heard of it. I only know about lye." Aunt Chi was brewing medicine for her daughter-in-law when she shooed Chi Tang out.
"Go outside so you don't get choked up; it's too hot in here."
The little girl's face is so fair and tender, don't let her get any more smoked.
Chi Tang pouted and thought for a long time in the small courtyard, deciding that she still couldn't let Miss Huo Yajie know about her unusual behavior.
But who else can we turn to?
My sister-in-law is recuperating, my mother is busy, my nephews are in class, my eldest brother and father are working in the fields, my second brother is at the academy, my third brother…
Huh?
There's also a third brother who has nothing better to do.
Because An'an had just returned, Old Man Chi didn't ask Chi Sanhe to go to the fields, so that Chi Sanhe could spend more time with An'an.
Once An'an is more familiar with the school, we'll send her to school.
"Hey, quick, I need to talk to you." Chi Tang tripped and fell after taking only two steps.
He stood there dumbfounded for a moment, then dusted himself off and got up.
This little guy's body isn't fully developed yet, and he keeps falling down while walking. It's unbelievable.
After hearing what Chi Tang wanted to buy, Chi Sanhe was a little confused: "Why do you want to buy wood ash?"
"Hey, let's go together."
Chi Tang was worried and decided to go with him.
Although Chi Sanhe was lazy, he still doted on his younger sister, and immediately took An'an and Chi Tang out.
After buying the wood ash, Chi Tang thought about buying a cow.
"What the heck? Do you think I'm worth a cow? You want to buy a cow?"
"I have money, let's go."
Without saying a word, Chi Tang and Chi Sanhe bought another cow, which cost a full five taels of silver!
Chi Sanhe's face went blank.
Oh no, oh no.
Do you think you can fly without getting scolded when you go back?
He said his sister insisted on buying it, and asked if his parents wouldn't beat him.
