"Second Lady Wang, Siniang Yu, today we have a new product launched by Hongyanxiao. Are you interested in trying it?"
Wang asked curiously: "Oh, what good thing is it again?"
Mrs. Yu also cast a curious look at Lin Wanwan, who said in an old voice: "Let's do facial care now. The new products can be used at the same time. You will know when the time comes."
The three ladies were lying on three single beauty beds, with their respective maids waiting outside. Serving them inside were three well-trained Silla maids in Hongyanxiao.
As for the process of beauty and skin care, the Silla maid who serves as a waiter in Hongyanxiao is already familiar with it. She first cleans the skin, then exfoliates the skin according to the situation, removes blackheads and whiteheads, then performs a hydrating massage, introduces essence, and finally applies a mask.
After a complete process, no matter what the effect is, I feel very happy psychologically.
In addition to this beauty procedure today, Lin Wanwan also arranged additional manicure services - yes, this is the new project launched by Hongyanxiao this month.
Each manicure costs 500 cents, which lasts for one month. Only premium members can do it.
Nail art has a history of thousands of years in China.
Starting from the Shang Dynasty about 1,600 BC, aristocratic women began to mix gum arabic, gelatin, beeswax, egg white, etc. to make a colored mixture, and then rub and rub it on their nails to prepare their nails.
dyeing.
Datang Dynasty also had its own way of manicure, which was to mash the flowers in a small bowl, add a small amount of alum, then knead the silk floss into thin slices like nails, add the processed flower juice, inhale the juice, and then cover it on the nails.
, after three to five consecutive infestations, the nails will be dyed.
These primitive manicure methods are nothing compared to Lin Wanwan's carefully selected modern nail polishes with high reputation.
In the Tang Dynasty, nail polish was called Koudan, which looked more beautiful than the word "nail polish". Lin Wanwan naturally followed the trend and would not change the name intentionally.
Glass was uniformly called Liuli in the Tang Dynasty, so although the glass bottle of nail polish was strange, knowledgeable nobles would not make a fuss about it.
Lin Wanwan only replaced the plastic cap of the nail polish bottle with a copper cap, and then she could bring it to the Tang Dynasty in a grand manner without attracting many people's attention.
After all, Lin Wanwan had never thought about selling nail polish in large quantities. It only served the high-end members of Hongyanxiao. The quantity was small, and it was a beauty product for women, so it did not worry about attracting attention.
Hongyanxiao has now become the most desirable place for the aristocratic women in Xiaoxi Town and nearby Xiaoxi Town. Almost every month, Silla maids’ makeup artists are invited out of the shop to do their makeup.
For such a make-up service, Hongyanxiao charges ten dollars, which is an absolutely huge sum of money. So unless it is a big day, the average aristocratic lady would not be willing to spend this money.
Lin Wanwan set the makeup price so high naturally because she has no interest in expanding the makeup business. Hongyanxiao would not accept any makeup orders that exceed the scope of Luan County.
Even so, people still come to make appointments every month. Lin Wanwan said that it is women who make the most money.
Now the junior members of Hongyanxiao have captured all the ladies within a radius of a hundred miles, and the number of senior members is also increasing.
No way, the quality of the rouge and gouache that senior members of Hongyanxiao can buy is far superior to the ordinary products on the market. In this regard, women are willing to spend it as long as they can squeeze out money.
After all, noble ladies don’t have much work to do every day. If they work together, wouldn’t they start to compete with each other? After comparing their family backgrounds, they will compare with their husbands, after comparing their husbands with their sons, after comparing their sons, they will naturally compare themselves to beauty and talent. This is inevitable.
.
Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Yu stretched out their slender hands, looked at the crystal clear cherry red nails on them, and sighed. According to Lin Wanwan, this nail polish is not available for takeout, and only senior members can enjoy this project.
Mrs. Yu is a junior member of Hongyanxiao, but she is not willing to become a senior member yet.
The premium membership fee of ten gold is a bit heartbreaking for the Yu family whose dowry is average and her husband is the second son and cannot inherit the family business.
After riding back to her home, Mrs. Yu opened the gift that Lin Wanwan gave her when she left today. The exclusive "Time Magic" skin care product (actually a repackaged version of Helena's three-piece set), worth six gold; there is also a very small
Inside the glass bottle is today's new product of Hongyanxiao - Cherry Koudan (red nail polish), which is not for sale.
"What a big gesture." Seeing these gifts, Mr. Yu's heartbeat inevitably accelerated slightly.
Whether it's Time Magic Skin Care or Cherry Coconut Pill, before today, she had only heard of its name. The beauty products exclusive to senior members of Hongyanxiao have amazing effects. Those who have used them will praise them, and those who have not used them are envious.
.
Lin Wanwan sent such a gift today, she was very sincere in her desire to get her cousin Mo Bao.
It is said that the person who eats people has a soft mouth and the hands that take people are short.
After receiving such a heavy gift, Mrs. Yu naturally couldn't deal with it. She immediately went to the study to take out pen and ink to repair a book and sent someone back to her parents' home in Yuyao.
After dinner, the Lin Mansion sent someone to deliver a letter and gift to Mrs. Yu through the back door.
This eloquent letter does not mention Yu Shinan's calligraphy in a single sentence, but every sentence reveals the message of the calligraphy.
The meaning of the gift is even more obvious. A frame of oranges grown by Le'an Xiangjun in the greenhouse is nothing. Now is the time when oranges are yellow and oranges are green, and there are many families who have planted oranges in the village of Luan County.
But the gift in the wooden box was shocking. It contained a bottle of grape wine in a glass bottle and a set of matching jasper luminous cups.
Whether it's the glass bottle containing the wine, the wine inside, or the six matching jasper luminous cups, they are all priceless items.
It was obvious that such a heavy gift would not be given to the Yu family, but would be given to Yu Shinan through her hand.
How could Mr. Yu not know this?
"It is said that the king of Le'an Township is as rich as the country, and now it seems that he is indeed the case." Mrs. Yu muttered to herself, but she just wanted to ask for a painting, but she was willing to spend such a huge sum of money.
The whole Luan County knew that the Lord of Le'an Township had a senior fellow knight who came and went without a trace. He sent her a boatload of gifts from Qiongzhou and Haicheng, which contained all kinds of rare treasures.
Therefore, although Mrs. Yu was shocked by Lin Wanwan's action, she was not surprised.
Once people have endless wealth that they can enjoy in a lifetime, they will turn their attention to writing, calligraphy and painting. This is a normal thing, it happens every day in the world, and Mr. Yu naturally understands.
Looking at what Lin Wanwan sent, Mrs. Yu had secretly made up her mind to accomplish this matter so that Lin Wanwan could see what she could do.
Recommended today, I will add more updates, so I will put the two chapters first.
