Chapter 8: Indigenous Mascara

Not long after the meal, Xu Zizhen claimed that he was full and said goodbye. He remembered that Mo Lier didn't sleep at all last night. Now he was sitting aside, although he was trying hard to keep company, but his eyes were already filled with tears.

It was bloodshot, and he felt heartbroken when he saw it.

There are six major city gates in Suzhou Prefecture, with Changmen and Louqi as the leader. It is naturally very prosperous. We had an early dinner today and the sky has just been wiped off. Xu Zizhen wandered all the way back and looked at the road.

It was so lively that I bought a lot of things on the roadside.

When he returned to the government office, Jin Yuxi was just about to change his shift. When he saw Xu Zizhen coming back, he invited him to go have a drink with him. Xu Zizhen politely declined. Tomorrow is the first official day of work, so he had to go to bed early. Jin Yuxi was also considerate of him and smiled.

After joking for a while, he left.

Opposite the house where Xu Zizhen lived lived an old man who was in charge of flowers and plants in the mansion, and the cook in the mansion lived next door. Both of them had been busy all day, and now they had gone to bed early, and the yard was quiet.

He returned to the house, spread the pile of things he bought on the table, and began to play with them one by one, a smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.

No matter what era, women and children are the best earners. Xu Zizhen knows this well. He laughs not for anything else, but because he once had a girlfriend who studied chemical engineering and loved to tinker with things all day long.

Weird things, and one day I even made a bottle of home-made mascara.

Today, when Mr. Mo Xie was talking about his family business, Xu Zizhen had an idea. These days, even washing hair is done with water and soap locust. How can there be any mascara? If he could make this thing by himself, it would be an absolute rarity.

Things, and the Song Dynasty was the richest dynasty in history. There were rich ladies and wives all over the streets. By then, wouldn’t they be able to put a lot of money into their pockets?

Without further ado, let’s get started!

It's quite simple. It's just a small red clay stove, a few earthen pots, and a pack of fresh fish maws. There are no big herrings for sale now. This is the most common wild crucian carp swim bladder in Taihu Lake. It's small but very sticky.

.

Master Lu Ban used fish bladders to make the earliest woodworking glue, but in Xu Zizhen's hands he was able to make another sophisticated thing.

Xu Zizhen washed the fish bladder and threw it into the earthen pot to simmer slowly, then opened another small bag and started to think about it. He asked Mo Xie for it when he came out of Mo Lier's house. The small bag was used to make hair.

Black powder of oil, a small bottle of essential oil, and a few pieces of higher quality white wax.

Cooking fish maw is a grinding process, and one cannot walk away. It has to be stirred a few times from time to time to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. However, Xu Zizhen is not bored at all. He is hesitant about his ambition now and is waiting to make money and marry a wife in the future. How many wives will he marry?

On the other hand, Li'er must be married first.

Suddenly, the window behind him creaked, and a figure walked in nimbly, startling Xu Zizhen and almost knocking over the jar in his hand.

"Holy shit... Huh? Female snitch?" Xu Zizhen took a closer look, only to find that it was the masked man in black who appeared in the den of thieves last night.

The man in black glanced at the earthen pot, frowned and said, "What are you cooking for? You have attracted all the wild cats within a few miles."

Xu Zizhen didn't expect that she also had such a humorous side, so he couldn't help but laugh: "I'll make some gadgets that you haven't seen before, and then I'll give you some as a gift. Why, you were also attracted by this fishy smell?"

The man in black rolled his eyes at him angrily, which immediately made Xu Zizhen's mouth go dry. Perhaps it was because only her eyes were exposed on her whole face, but this white look was so eye-catching. Mo Lier's eyes were very

She was big and beautiful, but the eyes of the heroine in black were even more energetic, which made Xu Zizhen's heart flutter for a moment and he couldn't control himself.

At this time, a smell gradually wafted out of the earthenware jar, and Xu Zizhen woke up with a jolt: "Oh, it almost got burnt!" As he spoke, he hurriedly took the earthenware jar down, filtered it through a large fine-eye filter, and added

Add finely ground graphite powder, white wax, and a few drops of essential oil, and stir with a small wooden stick.

The fishy smell in the room gradually dissipated and was replaced by a faint scent of jasmine. The man in black became more and more curious and stared at it motionlessly. After a while, Xu Zizhen put down the wooden stick and clapped his hands: "It's done!"

"What is this?" The man in black finally couldn't hold himself back and asked curiously.

Xu Zizhen chuckled and took a strange thing from the table. This was a simple eyelash brush he had previously made with a goose feather rod and relatively hard bristle. The goose feathers were relatively thick and long, and the hollow rod could temporarily absorb liquid. Here

I really can't find anything else that works better than this.

"Xia Xia, did you bring a mirror?"

The man in black didn't know what his intention was, but he still took out a small bronze mirror with a unique shape from his arms.

Xu Zizhen's smile suddenly faded, he stared into the eyes of the man in black and said slowly in an extremely seductive tone: "This is a fairy medicine that can make you beautiful." He picked up the earthen jar and put the simple eyelashes on

Put the brush in and soak it thoroughly.

"What on earth is this..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Zizhen suddenly picked up the eyelash brush and applied it on her row of long and dense eyelashes. The man in black was startled and subconsciously tried to avoid it. Xu Zizhen shouted softly: "Don't.

move!"

For some reason, the man in black actually didn't hide away anymore. She suddenly felt a sense of trust in Xu Zizhen, and she just stood there motionless, letting Xu Zizhen wipe the thing, even though she looked darkly.

It looks a little scary.

"Come on, come on, look up at the beams, pretend you want to hang yourself... don't move your neck."

Xu Zizhen was directing while holding his hands, and took the opportunity to bring his face closer. Even though the face of the man in black was covered with a silk scarf, he could still clearly feel her slightly nervous breath, with a faint

The sweet smell made Xu Zizhen couldn't help but feel excited. He rolled his eyes and pretended to accidentally rub his hand on her cheeks as white as cream while applying mascara.

"Tsk, tsk, your skin is so tender, and it turns red just by touching it... Huh? Why is your whole face red?"

The man in black was a little crazy, but he didn't dare to move at this moment. He didn't know if the thing would be smeared on his face if he moved, so he could only say angrily: "Are you okay?"

Xu Zizhen applied it carefully a few more times, then put down his hand and stepped back half a step, gaping at her face, and suddenly shouted: "Holy shit!"

The man in black was startled by him. He quickly picked up the mirror and took a look, but was immediately stunned by what he saw in the mirror.

Is this still me? Although my eyelashes are not short, how come they become so long, dense and slightly raised? And as a result, my eyes look brighter and brighter, and the movement of my eyes is just like Xu Zizhen said, like

It's like it's electric.

"this……"

Seeing that she was so shocked that she couldn't speak, Xu Zizhen couldn't help but said proudly: "How about a heroine? Isn't this good? Oh, it doesn't matter if you look ugly, just these eyes are exposed

You can attract people's souls outside." After saying this, he looked forward eagerly, hoping that the man in black would get angry and pull off the silk scarf to show his face.

The man in black completely ignored the meaning of his words, let out a long breath, hesitated and asked: "What on earth is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Xu Zizhen sneered. This thing was invented hundreds of years later. How could you have seen it? Unless my predecessor traveled through time before me in this era, and he also had to be able to do mascara.

"This, it's called mascara, you've seen its effect." As he spoke, he took a small porcelain bottle, filled it full, and handed it to Heilongjiang along with an eyelash brush.

The man in clothes said with a genuine smile, "The first bottle in the world, given to you."

The man in black was stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Give it to me? Really?"

Xu Zizhen said dissatisfied: "How can this be true or false? You are my first friend after coming to the Song Dynasty."

"What about your pear girl?"

Xu Zizhen hesitated, then smiled awkwardly and said: "She... is my first girlfriend."

A trace of amusement flashed in the eyes of the man in black, and he finally took the porcelain bottle: "In that case, thank you very much." After saying that, he held the porcelain bottle and played with it.

Xu Zizhen secretly laughed in his heart. In this day and age, it's hard for any woman to refuse mascara. If he takes this opportunity to build a good relationship with this heroine, at least he won't be afraid of being bullied in the future, or... Hehe, no.

I know if she is good-looking or not.

At this time, the man in black regained his coolness and said calmly: "Actually, I am very curious about you."

Xu Zizhen said with a bad smile: "There is a truth in this world. If a woman is curious about a man, then she has already fallen in love with that man."

The man in black wasn't angry either. He just glanced at him indifferently, reached out to the window sill and jumped out in a flash.

Xu Zizhen was stunned: "Leaving now? I don't know your name yet."

A vague voice came from the distance: "Rong Xi."

Xu Zizhen looked out the window and chuckled: "Tsk, tsk...Rong Xi."

Not only is Rong Xi curious about him, but now he is also curious about Rong Xi. Who is this girl, what does she look like, and why she always likes to go out for a walk in the middle of the night.

That night, Xu Zizhen had a spring dream. The woman in the dream could not see her face, but she had a pair of captivating eyes, and her eyes moved as she looked around.

When Xu Zizhen got up the next day, he discovered that he had had a wet dream. He was a little bit dumbfounded by this. He had never thought in his life that any woman could make him have an erotic dream with just her eyes.
