Standing between the two shops, I saw quite a lot of people coming and going. I guess these two are the best rouge shops in the county, but I don't know which one is number one.

"Guan Wenyi, I'm going in to take a look. You wait here." The place was full of women's things for sale, and there were a lot of women. She was afraid that he would feel embarrassed.

"it is good."

Shen Li first entered the Furong Pavilion on the left, where there were two women selling rouge. Because they were busy, no one paid any attention to them.

Seeing that business was booming, Shen Li strolled around casually and came out.

Then we went into the Ice Skin Shop on the right, where there were also two women selling things.

Moreover, the girls from the two families, although not particularly beautiful in appearance, at least have really good skin and are well dressed, which adds points to the appearance. They create an atmosphere of beauty. This shopkeeper is really good at publicity.

"Dear guest, what would you like to buy? Let me introduce it to you." said one of the women.

"I want to buy some facial cream that can whiten my skin."

"Yes, this one can rejuvenate and whiten the skin. It's the best-selling one in our store and you can't buy it elsewhere. You can try it." After saying that, the woman opened the lid, dipped a little with her fingers, smeared it on Shen Li's hand, and then rubbed it little by little.

"Others" refers to Furong Pavilion? As expected, the competition between the two is fierce.

Shen Li smelled it and found a floral scent, not very strong, it seemed to be rose?

There are also Chinese medicines, white hyacinth, white angelica, and pearl powder? They are all whitening, but pearl powder has no smell. With her experience and sensitive sense of smell, she can still smell a little bit.

It seems that this facial cream is not cheap: "Is pearl powder added here?"

The woman smiled and said, "My dear guest, it does have pearl powder, so the whitening effect is very good."

"That's not cheap, is it?"

"Ten taels of silver for a box."

It’s really not cheap: “I want a box.” She wanted to see if it was useful or not.

"Okay, wrap it up for the guest."

While she was busy, Shen Li asked, "Excuse me, where is the largest rouge shop in your county?"

“Our family is the largest.”

"But I think the things in the nearby Furong Pavilion are also good."

The smile on the woman's face could no longer be maintained. "Our two shops are the best rouge shops in Hua County. If we go by which one sells better, ours is usually better than theirs, so naturally my shop is the biggest. The facial cream you bought is made with our unique secret recipe. I don't know how much better it is than theirs."

"Okay, thank you very much." It was pretty much what she expected.

When I came out of the shop, I saw Guan Wenyi surrounded by several women. It seemed like they wanted to throw sachets at him.

Almost everyone in Hua County wears a sachet, which probably contains some flower petals. This has a similar effect to her ointment, but for her, it has both good and bad effects.

On the positive side, everyone recognizes people who wear fragrance, and perfume has a strong and long-lasting scent, so it may be more recognized by everyone. On the negative side, people who don’t have money can choose not to buy perfume and use sachets instead.

Seeing that Guan Wenyi was in such a state of distress, Shen Li decided to rescue him as soon as possible, so he shouted, "Guan Wenyi, let's go."

When Guan Wenyi heard the voice, he hurried towards Shen Li, but those women had no intention of giving way, so he froze there for a moment.

Shen Li was helpless. This guy was really tough, so she pushed and squeezed her way in: "Get out of the way, we are leaving." Finally, she grabbed Guan Wenyi's wrist and pulled him out.

Guan Wenyi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his wrist that was being held by Shen Li.

Looking back to see that the girls hadn't caught up, Shen Li let go of her hands and said, "I say, how come the girls in Hua County are so much bolder than the girls in our county?"

"Thank you for what you did just now."

"What are you thanking me for? Just don't blame me for ruining your good thing."

"How could that be? Besides, where does the good thing come from?"

"Of course it's those women. They are so popular, but they are not happy?"

"Forget it. I am not worthy of it."

Shen Li looked at him with a frightened expression and said with a smile: "Were you also so popular when you were in our county?"

"No."

Yes, my eldest brother said before that they respect scholars, so they dare not act presumptuously, but what is going on in Hua County?

Shen Li looked at Guan Wenyi. He looked like a scholar, but more like a down-and-out young man.

Guan Wenyi was a little frightened by her gaze: "What...what happened?"

"It's okay, let's go eat and then go back."

"Goodbye, I think it's getting late, don't waste any more time, or it will be dark when you get home, and it's still unsafe to travel at night."

Shen Li thought it made sense, so he passed by a stall selling buns, bought fifteen buns, and went to find the driver. The three of them shared the buns while they were on the road.

No matter how hard I tried, it still took a while to get home at night.

When she got off the car at the door, Shen Li was a little dazed. She was very sleepy on the road and wanted to lean against the car to take a nap, but it was too bumpy and her head kept hitting the wall of the car. She had no choice but to endure it.

If she were with her second brother and the others, she would sleep leaning on their shoulders, but for Guan Wenyi, that was not suitable.

It is said that when she was in modern times, she would feel sleepy whenever she sat in a car, and it was still the same here, no matter whether it was a horse-drawn carriage or an ox-drawn carriage.

Absent-minded and confused, when she got off the car, she walked to the horse stool, stepped on empty air, and was about to fall to the ground.

Guan Wenyi was standing aside and hurried forward to hold her waist.

Shen Li perked up now, then felt the hand on his waist and stepped back awkwardly: "Thank you."

Guan Wenyi clenched his uncontrollable hands and said calmly, "You have been confused all the way. Go back and have a good rest."

"Got it. Thank you for accompanying me to Hua County today."

"Don't be polite to me, you helped me more."

"Okay, stop talking about the past, and go back quickly."

"it is good."

Shen Li watched him leave, then paid the taxi fare. When he was about to enter the yard, he saw someone standing next to him: "Who? Is it my second brother?"

Qin Yu had been waiting for her here. When he came back, he heard his mother say that she had looked for him and it seemed that she had something to do, so he came here to wait for her.

Who would have thought that he actually saw her with Guan Wenyi, and that he had just hugged her. He unconsciously clenched his fists. In fact, he wanted to punch Guan Wenyi in the face.

After hearing Shen Li's words, he walked out and looked at her.

Shen Li could vaguely see Qin Yu in the light of the courtyard: "Qin Yu? What are you doing here?"

"Wait for you."

Shen Li listened to his somewhat cold voice and gloomy expression. Who had offended him?

"what happened to you?"

"Where did you and Guan Wenyi go?"

"We went to Hua County. I originally wanted you to accompany me, but you were not there. When I came back, I happened to run into him, so I asked him to accompany me."

"He just hugged you."

"You...did you see it? That wasn't a hug. I was about to fall and he supported me." Shen Li said uncomfortably.

"I told you not to have any thoughts about him, lest you get hurt."
