Because they wore perfume, even after they had disappeared at the end of the road, the air still retained an extremely pleasant fragrance.
It has a fresh and elegant scent, somewhat like the fragrance of white peony, which is refreshing and delightful.
The breeze took a sniff and couldn't help but sigh.
"What is the First Madam carrying? It smells quite nice."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his master's gloomy face, which frightened him so much that he immediately fell silent and dared not utter another word.
Wei Jingmo looked at him with a deep, cold gaze and said in a low voice, "Go and find out what your sister-in-law has been up to lately."
"Ah, Madam Cha? Does the General think there's something wrong with Madam Cha?" Qingfeng asked, puzzled.
Wei Jing did not explain, but only reminded him: "Just go, don't worry about anything else."
"yes."
Qingfeng nodded and immediately slipped away.
Wei Jing was left standing there, gazing at the direction Jiang Mingwei had left in for a long time, his mind filled with countless thoughts...
When Jiang Mingwei came face to face with him, he knew he was excited, and even a little nervous for no reason, and didn't know how to talk to her.
Unexpectedly, she just smiled at him and then left.
It would be a lie to say I wasn't disappointed.
But as Jiang Mingwei walked over, he smelled an extremely fragrant aroma.
If this were ordinary face powder, he might have been unable to sleep at night because of the scent, tossing and turning, and always subconsciously thinking of her.
Strangely, Wei Jing smelled a scent that was both unfamiliar and familiar in the face powder!
It is unfamiliar because this spice should not be found in Nanjing.
It is a very famous spice from the northern border region, known as draco incense.
Although the Northern Frontier and Southern Jing frequently clashed, they never harmed civilians or merchants during the wars, so there was still economic exchange between the two countries.
However, this spice is extremely precious in the northern border region and is not something that ordinary people can easily obtain.
Moreover, it has a terrible effect...
So the moment he smelled it, Wei Jing's expression suddenly turned sharp.
She hoped she was just smelling something wrong rather than believing it was actually that kind of spice!
However, there were some things that were not easy to say directly to Jiang Mingwei.
He was afraid she would dislike him, so he could only investigate secretly first.
If that spice were to actually appear in Bianjing, the capital of Nanjing, it might just unleash a bloodbath.
He has to find a way to stop it; it's not too late to talk to her later...
After pondering for a long time, Wei Jing put his hands behind his back and quickly walked away.
But for some reason, I always felt uneasy.
He always felt that the peaceful yet chaotic days that had passed since he and Jiang Mingwei fell off the cliff were about to come to an end...
There must be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes, orchestrating a massive conspiracy!
But with her current abilities, she can neither see nor touch it.
Even if you had expected it, all you could do was wait quietly...
Jiang Mingwei had no idea what Wei Jing was thinking. After returning to the courtyard, she locked herself in the side room and began to study how to make rouge and face powder.
Right now, she hasn't obtained the medicinal herbs needed to make cosmeceuticals, but she can try using the ones she has on hand.
We should at least make rouge and face powder first before considering adding herbs.
Therefore, necessary practice is essential.
Even though she had written down all the steps clearly, Jiang Mingwei still couldn't help but have a headache when it came to actually making it.
There were no precise measuring tools available, so she had to figure out how much of each ingredient to add on her own.
You can't exactly go to Xingxianglou and ask their manager what the mixing ratio of their rouge and face powder is, can you?
Jiang Mingwei suspected that if she dared to say that, she might be kicked out in the next second!
So all she could do was slowly figure it out...
This trial lasted for three days.
For three consecutive days, apart from eating and sleeping, Jiang Mingwei locked herself in the side room.
Hua Cui was both anxious and distressed, fearing that his mistress would overwork herself. But before he could persuade her, she came out of the side room first.
After bathing and changing clothes, it was time to leave the mansion.
Hua Cui then remembered that her mistress had made an appointment with the group of herb gatherers for three days.
Today marks the third day.
She's going to inspect the results.
“In the past, I thought that Miss should not leave the manor too often, as going out too much was not good. But now I think... Miss should go out more often.”
"She stays in the side room all day and isn't allowed to have anyone go in to serve her. I'm so afraid that if Miss faints in there, no one will know!"
As Hua Cui helped Jiang Mingwei with her hair and makeup, she couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Mingwei looked up and gave her a teasing look.
"How can you curse your own young lady like that? I'm perfectly healthy, how could I faint just like that?"
"I was just using an analogy, Miss, how could you..."
"Okay, don't worry, look what this is?"
Jiang Mingwei interrupted her incessant chatter, picked up a small white porcelain bottle, and waved it in front of Hua Cui.
She blinked, tilted her head, and took it from Jiang Mingwei's hand.
Upon opening, a refreshing fragrance is exceptionally soothing.
It contains a pale yellow paste.
"What is this? I've never seen anything like it before. Is this what Miss has been working on these past few days?"
"That's right, you haven't seen this before! Using normal rouge and powder, you definitely can't beat Xingxianglou, so what I need is innovation."
"You can call this... um... BB cream!"
Jiang Mingwei originally wanted to call it foundation, but then felt it wasn't quite right.
After all, this stuff doesn't really have the coverage or the face-stripping effect of foundation, so we have to settle for second best.
"A face cream? I've never heard of it."
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. Just watch today and see how your young lady applies makeup with this!"
After saying that, Jiang Mingwei took the smear from her hand and was about to apply it to her face.
Hua Chui's eyes widened immediately, and she hurriedly tried to stop him.
She held her young mistress's hand tightly, preventing her from applying the smear to her face.
Jiang Mingwei looked up at her, puzzled, only to see Hua Cui looking very nervous.
"Miss, you'd better not put it on your face! It's not that I don't trust you, but what if this thing ruins your face?"
"Miss is so beautiful, her face must not be ruined!"
Jiang Mingwei chuckled softly, "Your young lady knows perfectly well what's been added to this. It's not that easy to ruin her face. Don't worry, I'll only use it once to show you..."
"That won't do either. If you want to use it, Miss, try it on my face first! If it works fine on my face, then you can use it on me."
"In short, Miss, you absolutely cannot do it on her face!" Hua Cui said firmly.
Jiang Mingwei looked at her with a helpless smile, "Silly girl, you're worried about it causing problems on my face? Aren't you afraid of ruining your face?"
