Zhuang Xueqi got out of the BMW wearing a mink coat, looked her up and down at her outfit, raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes were full of pride.
Shen Mingzhu smiled, "If I say I came out specially to greet you, Miss Zhuang, would you believe me?"
"Smooth talk."
Zhuang Xueqi snorted and walked up to her, "I have something to talk to you about."
Going to see Pei Wenping was not a big deal, so Shen Mingzhu canceled the plan and took Zhuang Xueqi into the factory.
"Ms. Zhuang, I don't have any coffee here, only rose tea. Please have a drink. It's made with dried roses that I roasted myself, with lemon slices and red dates. Drinking it regularly will improve your beauty."
Zhuang Xueqi took just one sip and put the cup down, not interested.
"I need your help with something."
Zhuang Xueqi got straight to the point, and Shen Mingzhu pretended to be flattered, "Ms. Zhuang, please go ahead."
Zhuang Xueqi raised her chin proudly, "Don't worry, I won't ask for your help in vain."
"Miss Zhuang, that's too polite. It's my honor to be able to help you."
Zhuang Xueqi opened her purse and placed the cosmetics in it on the coffee table one by one.
"Teach me how to put on makeup, that natural makeup you put on me last time."
During this period, she practiced makeup at home whenever she had free time, and even asked a few of her girlfriends to join in. However, no matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't achieve the same effect as Shen Mingzhu's previous one.
Therefore, as soon as the snow stopped, she didn't care about the slippery road and ran to find Shen Mingzhu.
In two days she will go to Gangcheng with the Ning family to celebrate Old Man Ning's birthday. She wants to be in the best possible condition to win the favor of the Ning family elders.
In fact, when Shen Mingzhu saw Zhuang Xueqi for the first time, she roughly guessed why Zhuang Xueqi came.
Although Zhuang Xueqi's makeup today was much lighter than before, because she didn't know the key points, it did not have a beautifying effect, but instead seemed superfluous.
"Let's go, Miss Zhuang."
"Where are you going?"
"My home."
Learning makeup can’t just rely on talking, it also requires practice.
Shen Mingzhu's dressing table is equipped with a fill light and the mirror is large enough to facilitate her teaching.
…
The first step in applying makeup is to apply foundation. Zhuang Xueqi has very good skin, which is moisturized and translucent, so she only needs to apply a thin layer of moisturizer to keep it moisturized.
The second step is concealer.
However, there are no blemishes on Zhuang Xueqi's face. She just needs to use a little foundation cream to cover the dark circles.
The third step is to apply foundation.
Shen Mingzhu asked Zhuang Xueqi to look in the mirror. She applied foundation to Zhuang Xueqi's left face while teaching her the essentials of foundation: "Wet the powder puff with clean water first, then use a dry towel to absorb the excess water. Apply only a small amount of foundation each time, and spread the foundation from the center of the face to the periphery. The closer you get to the periphery of the face, the thinner and more transparent the foundation should be. Then apply the foundation to the forehead and chin. Finally, apply the remaining powder on the powder puff to the bridge of the nose and the wings of the nose."
"The nose wings are prone to powder sticking, so foundation must be used sparingly. If you feel that your skin is not white enough, you can apply powder several times in small amounts, but the amount each time must not be too much, so that the foundation can be adhered to and transparent enough..."
Shen Mingzhu explained the key points while applying foundation.
Zhuang Xueqi also put away her arrogance and studied very seriously.
After Shen Mingzhu finished the rehearsal, she asked Zhuang Xueqi to apply the foundation on the right side of her face by herself, and she gave guidance.
An hour later, Zhuang Xueqi looked at her face in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.
"There's a black paper bag in the trunk of my car. Go get it for me."
If someone else was bossing her around like that, Shen Mingzhu would definitely not be happy. It had just snowed and she was freezing to death if she went out.
However, thinking of the banker behind Zhuang Xueqi, if she could get the banker to order her mooncakes next year, let alone letting her hold a bag, she would even be able to perform the one-legged stand in the snow.
The driver got out of the car, opened the trunk, took out a large black paper bag and handed it to her.
Shen Mingzhu took it and looked at it, wow, it’s the fragrant lady.
"Ms. Zhuang, your bag."
Zhuang Xueqi was still looking in the mirror, not even glancing at her, "This is for you."
Shen Mingzhu rubbed her hands excitedly, "How can I be so embarrassed?"
"If you don't want it, just throw it away. I never take back anything I give away."
"Then I'm welcome. Thank you, Miss Zhuang. Can I open it and take a look now?"
She was really curious about what Zhuang Xueqi gave her, a bag or clothing, but looking at the size and weight, she guessed it was a bag.
Zhuang Xueqi didn't comment, "It's up to you."

The paper bag contained a paper box that was one size larger than A4 paper. When the box was opened, it contained cards and a black dust bag. At the same time, a very pleasant leather scent filled the air.
The dust bag contains a classic diamond pattern bag, medium size, black.
In her previous life, Shen Mingzhu also bought a similar style, but the one she bought was a new model from 2019, while this one was older.
"This bag is really nice. Is it made of real leather? And it has a fragrance. It must be expensive, right?"
Not to mention that in this era, luxury brands such as Chanel have not yet entered the mainland market. Even if they did, they are not something that an ordinary housewife like her can access.
Not surprisingly, Zhuang Xueqi's reaction to her was rather disdainful.
"This is Chanel. My dad bought it for me from abroad. It cost more than a thousand dollars when I bought it, which is almost less than 10,000 yuan when converted into RMB."
Although she was mentally prepared, Shen Mingzhu was still shocked.
Although a diamond-patterned bag would cost tens of thousands of dollars in later generations, the prices of goods at that time were very different from those of today.
At that time, she spent a month's income on a diamond-patterned bag.
And now ten thousand is almost the annual profit of her food factory.
"Ms. Zhuang, this is too expensive."
"Your skills are worth the price I pay. In addition to this natural makeup, do you know anything else?"
"Yes, I can also do evening makeup and daily life makeup."
Zhuang Xueqi nodded and said, "Give me your home phone number. I'll call you if I need anything."
"OK."
When sending Zhuang Xueqi out, Pei Ziheng went downstairs carrying Xiao Guoguo, who had just woken up and wanted to feed.
Noticing Zhuang Xinqi's gaze, Pei Ziheng politely greeted, "Hello, Auntie."
Zhuang Xueqi turned around and said to Shen Mingzhu, "You are so lucky to have such a beautiful son for free."
After hearing Zhuang Xueqi's praise, Pei Ziheng blinked his obsidian eyes and replied crisply: "Auntie, you are also very beautiful, just like a fairy, Guoguo, right?"
"Aa ...
Little Guoguo can't speak yet, but she can understand "Guoguo". Whenever someone at home calls Guoguo, she will respond with "Ah ya".
But in Zhuang Xueqi's view, Xiao Guoguo seemed to be agreeing with her brother.
"As expected, like mother, like son. Just as smooth-talking as you are."
Zhuang Xueqi said this, but her tone was relaxed and she seemed to be in a good mood.
