I trade in both worlds
Chapter 121 Aunt Lin
"That's fine." Xu Ziqing thought for a moment and agreed, "There's also color powder. Let's try heating the red rose juice and boiling it into a thick juice."
"Okay, then we need to start buying tools and materials."
After that, the two began to buy materials online. They bought 5 kilograms of edible rose petals alone. From then on, they could only wait for the materials to arrive before they could start working.
Three days later, the materials purchased online arrived, and Tai Chi Suit also responded, accepting the price of 1299, but the quantity was changed from thirty sets to twenty-six sets.
For three or four days, Xu Ziqing thought that the order had failed, so he gave up long ago and focused on making lipstick.
Since there is work and money to be made, then of course he will take it. Xu Ziqing made an appointment with them to measure their dimensions at Jingcheng Park at 9 am tomorrow.
After agreeing on a time, Xu Ziqing weighed out a pound of rose petals and soaked them in salt water for two hours to decompose some harmful substances.
After two hours, take out the rose petals and rinse them several times. After washing, put the roses into boiling water and simmer for thirty minutes until the petals turn white and the soup turns rose color. Then filter the soup with a filter spoon.
Looking at the big bowl of rose soup, Xu Xu looked at Xu Ziqing and asked, "Do you want to continue boiling it?"
Xu Ziqing gritted his teeth and said, "We'll just keep going. We'll adapt to the situation and keep going until we get just the amount we need."
After simmering on high heat for nearly an hour, there was still half of the soup in the pot, but the color had obviously become darker. After simmering for another half hour, the rich rose fragrance could be smelled, and the rose juice had turned ink-black. Xu Ziqing quickly turned off the heat.
Xu Xu put the pot in the sink and poured ice cubes into the sink to cool it down quickly.
After the rose juice has cooled, Xu Ziqing pours out 10 grams, then adds appropriate amounts of sweet almond oil, walnut oil and white beeswax, and begins heating it in a water bath, stirring while heating until it is completely melted.
Xu Xu took out a few small ceramic jars that had been washed and sterilized, poured the lipstick into the jars, and filled each jar to eight-tenths. The work of making the lipstick was completed. Now just wait for it to cool naturally, or put it in the refrigerator to freeze.
But considering that Dayunchao doesn’t have a refrigerator, I’d better put it in a cool place to cool and see how it turns out.
After dinner, Xu Ziqing picked up the small ceramic jar and saw that the liquid in the jar had turned into a paste, and the color was surprisingly bright red. She couldn't wait to grab a lip brush and ran to the bathroom to try the color.
Xu Xu also chased after him when he saw this. He saw from the mirror that Xu Ziqing's lips had turned a glossy red. It looked pretty good, but a little oily. "How do you feel?"
Xu Ziqing handed her the brush: "You'll know if you try it yourself."
Taking the lipstick and brush, Xu Xu looked carefully at her oily, fiery red lips. After hesitating for a moment, she gently scraped a little with the brush and then applied it with her index finger. After trying this, the effect was instantly much better.
It no longer looks oily but moisturized, the lip color is also much lighter, and the overall feeling is much more natural. Of course, it is still not as good as the big-name products on the market, but it is safe and has no additives.
Xu Ziqing then wiped his lips a few times with a tissue, and the color became more natural, but his lips became dry again. However, overall, Xu Ziqing was still very satisfied.
"When we come back tomorrow afternoon, we will boil the rose petals into juice. We can't keep the fresh petals for too long." After wiping his lips clean, Xu Ziqing followed Xu Xu's method and tried the color again. This time it was much better.
"How about we cook it now?" Xu Xu wanted to boil all the rose juice tonight so that he could start cooking when he came back tomorrow.
Xu Ziqing shook her head left and right in front of the mirror. No matter how she looked at it, she felt very natural. She nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have decided that I will keep this lipstick for myself."
Xu Xu was completely speechless and stared at her expressionlessly.
Seeing Xu Xu's expression in the mirror, Xu Ziqing smiled at Xu Xu in the mirror and continued to look in the mirror: "Let's not cook tonight. There's no time."
"Look at what time it is now. It takes two hours to soak in salt water, half an hour to boil the petals, and almost two hours to boil the juice. Aren't you going to sleep tonight?"
"Okay, then you continue looking in the mirror." Xu Xu turned around and left helplessly.
At 9 o'clock the next morning, after Xu Ziqing got in touch with her contact, she came to a small pavilion in the park. As expected, a large group of old men and women had gathered inside, chattering so noisily that she didn't want to move a step into the pavilion.
An aunt saw Xu Ziqing and his partner standing outside the pavilion carrying small luggage bags, so she took the initiative to walk over and asked, "Are you Teacher Xu?"
Xu Ziqing nodded: "Yes, Auntie, are you Mei Xianglai?"
"It's me, it's me. Hello, Teacher Xu. Hello, my last name is Lin, you can just call me Auntie Lin." Auntie Lin took Xu Ziqing's hand, looked at Xu Xu and asked, "Who is this?"
Xu Ziqing stepped aside and introduced: "Oh, this is our tailor, his last name is also Xu."
Aunt Lin looked Xu Xu up and down, looking at her again and again in surprise: "Is this the one who made clothes in the video?"
"Yes." Xu Ziqing pulled Xu Xu and said happily, "It's her. Not only can she make clothes, she can also embroider, make shoes, and knit."
"Oh~ Really." Aunt Lin let go of Xu Ziqing and pulled Xu Xu instead: "How old is this little girl? She knows so much. Are all young people nowadays so amazing?"
"No, no, I just know a little bit." Xu Xu waved his hands helplessly after being praised.
Xu Ziqing was afraid that Aunt Lin would keep asking questions, so he quickly got back to the point: "Aunt Lin, let's measure the size first."
"Oh, okay." Aunt Lin led them into the pavilion.
Arriving at the pavilion, Aunt Lin clapped her hands and waited until the surroundings quieted down before she began to introduce: "This is Mr. Xu from Xu's Clothing Customization, and this is Master Xu, the one who made the clothes in the video."
"Wow, such a young master, that's amazing."
"How old is this little girl, and she can already make clothes."
……
The chattering started again, and Aunt Lin clapped her hands again: "Okay, everyone, be quiet for now. Once they are ready, we will start measuring the sizes."
Xu Ziqing took out a disposable tablecloth and spread it on the stone table, then took out a piece of cloth that had been rinsed and ironed neatly a few days ago from the bag and placed it on the tablecloth.
Aunt Lin's eyes lit up when she saw the cloth. The dark patterns on the cloth seemed to change with the viewing angle.
Xu Ziqing put on gloves, and Xu Xu handed a new pair of gloves to Aunt Lin: "Aunt Lin, silk is easy to scratch, it's better to wear gloves to see."
