Chapter 49 Ruan Lingyu (28)

There was a severe drought two years ago, and many foreigners flocked into Yueyang City. At that time, there was a family with the official surname who fled from the vicinity of Jiangcheng. Their family was a family who had been making incense for generations. , The quality of the incense is also good, so the source of customers is fairly stable.

However, due to the disaster brought by the drought, the local area has already changed their children to eat. They had no choice but to flee. Although their homeland was difficult to leave, they would have nothing when they died. Later, they heard that Yueyang was protected by warlords. Law and order, and there are good people giving porridge to save the people, so the whole family fled here.

But when they came, there were five masters and three attendants in a family. When they arrived, only the mistress and the youngest son were still alive.

The orphan and widowed mother finally arrived at the boundary of Yueyang City. Before they had time to eat a mouthful of porridge, the widowed mother fainted and died beside the official road. In her arms was a dying eight-year-old child with the same disease. Thanks to Zuo Xiaole's rescue that day. Kill them, otherwise they will definitely not survive.

Zuo Xiaole rescued them, knowing the hardships they had endured along the way. He lamented the ruthlessness of the disaster and then thought that people cannot be resurrected, the disaster will eventually pass, and the living must continue to live, but the orphans and widowed mothers had no choice but to live. They are fleeing, and I can save them for a while, but I can't save them forever. What should I do?
Fortunately, although Mrs. Fu is a woman, but because her husband's incense workshop is not big, sometimes she will help out when she is busy, so she knows the whole process of making incense, and the incense recipes left by her husband's family She has both, so she can get back to her old business.

When Zuo Xiaole heard it, she also felt that it was very feasible, so Zhang Luozhu opened a incense shop for her. During the period, because of the fame of the Ruan family class and the relationship with Chu Zhongtian, the big households in Yueyang City would sell Zuo Xiaole for a few cents. In order to save face, she took the incense made by Mrs. Fu and tried it for them.

Many people thought the incense was good and were willing to use their incense, and for the sake of the Ruan family class, they even paid a deposit in advance.Because Zuo Xiaole is their savior, and now he is busy with their affairs, Fu Shi decided that she and Zuo Xiaole would split half of the proceeds of this incense shop.

To the outside world, it is said that this incense shop belongs to Zuo Xiaole. After all, their orphans and widows have no one to rely on. Zuo Xiaole is known to many people in the city because of the Ruan family class, and they often see her and Chu. Zhongtian went in and out together, so basically no one would provoke her. It would be great if Xiangfang had her come forward.

Zuo Xiaole originally only wanted to help the mother and son, and didn't think too much about it, but since Mrs. Fu said so, she didn't refuse much.

The incense made by the government is really good. Once the disaster year is over, the city and the outside of the city slowly become alive. Well, the incense shop has expanded and recruited a dozen people.

However, most of these people came to Yueyang when they fled. Sometimes Zuo Xiaole would think about it smugly, does this solve some of the people's livelihood problems?
In short, because of Xiangfang, Zuo Xiaole also got a part of the income in private, because knowing that all currencies would depreciate, Zuo Xiaole exchanged all the money into gold, which preserves its value.

Two days ago, Zuo Xiaole went to deliver incense to Zhang Wuye's wife. Zhang Wuye's wife made a new fragrance powder. The powder was fine, white and smelled very good. Because she liked Zuo Xiaole very much, she had to make it. After giving her a box, Zuo Xiaole took it home and tried it, and found that the effect of this powder was almost the same as that of a certain foundation from Ji Xixi, and she was pleasantly surprised.

Zhang Wuye's wife is surnamed Lin, and her natal family was also a scholarly family before its decline, so she can also be regarded as a lady of the family, and her elegant side can be seen everywhere in ordinary life.

Especially she is nearly forty years old, but she does a good job of maintenance, she looks like thirty or so, and she is born beautiful, so in this world of three wives and four concubines, Zhang Wuye In Yueyang City, there is a person with head and face, and he will only marry Mrs. Lin in his whole life.

After using this face powder, Zuo Xiaole had an idea in her heart, no matter in the past or in the future, as long as there are some conditions, women are not afraid of getting old, but there are really people who can rely on maintenance to be like Mrs. Lin, Really not many.

And everyone has a love for beauty. Although the world is chaotic today, it is not so chaotic that she cannot survive, so she can also open a cosmetics store. After all, maintenance is urgent!

In modern times, Zuo Xiaole has been using skin care products since she started college, and she has formed a habit of skin care products over time, but she doesn’t know how to use skin care products, and even if she knows, it’s all under the modern technology Products, the era she is in now does not allow it, but there is one thing that can be made at any time, and that is the hydrosol made of flowers.

When Zuo Xiaole went to Zhang's house, she brought Mrs. Lin a few lotus pods and fresh flower water made by herself.

"My master said that the lotus heart is used to make tea to clear the heart fire, but I don't know if it is true?" Zuo Xiaole saw Mrs. Lin playing with the lotus pods herself. They were just a handful of flowers that could be seen together, but she was As soon as I fiddled with it, something so special and pleasing to the eye suddenly appeared. Is this the so-called flower arrangement?

Zuo Xiaole, who never hesitates to praise, praised: "It looks quite ordinary, but when you play with it like this, it suddenly has style, like a work of art!"

Probably disturbed by the sparkle of worship in Zuo Xiaole's eyes, Mrs. Lin couldn't help raising her eyes and laughing, "My mother also likes to play with these little things. I just learned a little bit, and it's just not practical."

Looking around at the flowers she had arranged, Mrs. Lin wiped her hands with satisfaction, "But Mr. Hongyuan is right, the lotus heart tea does clear the heart, and you can drink more in this weather."

The sun is shining outside, but the place where Mrs. Lin lives is very shady. It faces the waterside pavilion, and the water is running water brought from outside. The gurgling water takes away a lot of the heat.And because Mrs. Lin was too sleepy, Master Zhang Wu caught all the cicadas in the house, so Mrs. Lin's residence was cool and quiet, and Zuo Xiaole was very reluctant to leave every time he came.

"But the lotus heart is very bitter..." Zuo Xiaole wrinkled his nose.

Mrs. Lin smiled and nodded her forehead, sat down, picked up a bottle of jasmine hydrosol brought by Zuo Xiaole, unscrewed the cap and smelled it. When she smelled the clear and transparent floral fragrance, her eyes suddenly lit up. , "How to use this?"

"Is there any honey?" Soaking water with pure dew and honey tastes very good.

After a while, Mrs. Lin's girl brought a box of honey, and Zuo Xiaole made a cup of pure dew for Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin took a sip and praised: "The lips and teeth are fragrant, and the charm is long..."

"If you use pure dew, you can also apply it on your face after cleansing every day. After a long time, your skin will become more supple..."
