I trade in both worlds

Mother Liu casually asked Liu Zhuqing to take two bars of camellia handmade soap and two cans of mung bean paste mask and returned to the main courtyard.

This is prepared for one portion for Mrs. Liu and one portion for Mrs. Liu.

After returning to the main courtyard, Mother Liu immediately handed the camellia handmade soap and mung bean mud mask to Mrs. Liu.

"Is this the camellia handmade soap and mung bean paste mask you mentioned?" asked Mrs. Liu.

Mother Liu nodded and smiled, "Yes, ma'am. This is the camellia handmade soap and mung bean paste mask I used last night. You try it, the effect is really good."

"What a pity for this handmade soap. Its appearance has been crushed." Mrs. Liu looked at the camellia on the table with regret.

"Yes, it was such an exquisite handmade soap, what a pity." Mother Liu agreed.

After saying that, she saw the little maid bringing in a basin of water. She quickly rolled up her sleeves and said, "Madam, let's try this camellia handmade soap first."

"Let me try it myself." Mrs. Liu rolled up her sleeves, picked up the foaming net and began to knead the foam.

Mrs. Liu began to apply it gently on her face according to what Mrs. Liu had described before.

The foam was delicate and rich, with a faint scent of camellia. Mrs. Liu nodded with satisfaction. What Mrs. Liu said was right.

After washing her face, Mother Liu applied a mung bean paste mask on Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu lay quietly on the couch, closing her eyes and enjoying this rare tranquility and beauty.

After a cup of tea, Mrs. Liu touched her face and exclaimed: "This mask is really effective. I feel my skin has become softer."

"At first glance, Madam looks like she is ten years younger." Mother Liu praised.

"You old fool, you only know how to coax me." Madam Liu couldn't suppress the smile on her face: "Give the extra portion you brought to the young lady."

"Yes." Mother Liu turned around and told the maid to go and handle it.

After lunch, Mr. Liu came to the study and directly instructed Liu Fu to go to Guoyue County to discuss the purchase of the camellia handmade soap recipe with Xu Ziqing and Xu Xu.

"Liu Fu, when you go to Guoyue County, you must reach an agreement with Xu Ziqing and Xu Xu. We must get the recipe of camellia handmade soap." Master Liu ordered, his tone revealing unquestionable firmness.

Last year, the recipe for the lip balm made Mr. Liu a fortune, and now almost every noble lady in the capital has a set of his lip balm.

Since Camellia Facial Soap is so popular among ladies, it must have a broad market prospect.

Upon hearing this, Liu Fu nodded respectfully and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, sir, I will do my best. As for the price..."

Mr. Liu waved his hand gently, indicating that Liu Fu didn't need to worry too much. "As for the price, you can adjust it flexibly according to their response, but you must ensure that we can get the prescription."

"Yes." Liu Fu replied.

"As for the mung bean paste mask..." Mr. Liu changed the subject and continued, "Although it involves food and cannot be produced and sold on a large scale, we can make some for the ladies in the backyard to use."

"If they take the initiative to sell their house, give them one thousand taels; if they take the initiative to give it to them, give them two pieces of raw stones as a return gift to establish a good relationship with them."

Upon hearing this, Liu Fu secretly thought about how to properly handle this matter.

"Don't worry, sir. I will do as you tell me." Liu Fu responded respectfully.

Mr. Liu nodded, indicating that Liu Fu could leave.

Xuzhuang.

As soon as June began, the sky seemed like someone had accidentally overturned a basin of water. The endless rain fell, moistening every inch of the land, and the air was filled with the freshness of soil and grass.

After sending his children to kindergarten, Xu Xu prepared to do a thorough cleaning of his house.

She first took out the clothes and utensils left by her parents and hung them out to dry, then took a bamboo broom and swept the stagnant water and fallen leaves in the yard.

After the Chinese New Year, the house has not been cleaned thoroughly. Now that the weather is fine, she decided to clean it up properly.

As she swept, she thought about the family's supplies, especially the dried hazel mushrooms, which were running out.

Last year, she gave most of the hazel mushrooms she picked in the mountains away as gifts, and she didn't eat much herself.

"Alas, time flies so fast, another year has passed in the blink of an eye." Xu Xu sighed softly.

I thought to myself that after the rains, there should be a lot of mushrooms growing on the mountain, so I might as well go up the mountain and try my luck.

After cleaning herself, she changed into an old cloth dress, carried a basket on her back, and held a sharp sickle and bamboo tube in her hands, ready to go out.

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the early morning.

"Xuxu, where are you going?" Xu Ziqing walked out of the utility room.

Xu Xu looked up at the sky in surprise, then looked back at her: "Why did you get up so early today?"

"You can't sleep, where are you going?" Xu Ziqing asked.

"It rained a few days ago, so I wanted to go up the mountain to try my luck and see if I can pick some mushrooms," Xu Xu explained.

"I want to go too." Xu Ziqing immediately said excitedly: "Find me some old clothes, I'll go back and get the camera."

As soon as the voice fell, the person ran away

Xu Xu shook his head helplessly, put down the backpack, went back to find an old piece of clothing, and got her a pair of straw sandals to wear over her cloth shoes.

It had just rained and the mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk on. Straw sandals could prevent slipping and protect her cloth shoes from getting soaked by mud and water.

After Xu Ziqing came back and changed into old clothes, Xu Xu handed her the straw sandals: "You can wear these straw sandals over your cloth shoes. It rained a few days ago and the mountain roads are muddy. Wearing straw sandals can prevent slipping and keep out mud and water."

Xu Ziqing took the straw sandals curiously. The sandals were woven very delicately, and each straw rope was tightly connected.

She looked at the straw sandals, then at her cloth shoes, feeling a little at a loss.

"Xuxu, how do you wear these straw sandals? I've never worn them before." Xu Ziqing said with a smile, with curiosity gleaming in his eyes.

Xu Xu chuckled, squatted down, and patiently taught Xu Ziqing how to put on straw sandals.

She first stretched open the opening of the straw sandals, then asked Xu Ziqing to step into the cloth shoes, and then gently pulled, and the straw sandals were tightly put on the outside of the cloth shoes.

"Look, this is how you wear it. Try it and walk a few steps to see how it feels." Xu Xu said.

Xu Ziqing stepped carefully and took a few steps, feeling the novel feeling brought by the straw sandals.

"It feels a bit strange, but it will be fine after wearing it for a while and getting used to it. Let's go." Xu Ziqing said excitedly

With one more person, Xu Xu went to the kitchen and took out a bamboo tube and a backpack.

The two men carried their backpacks and set out on the journey up the mountain.

The mountain road is winding, with lush trees and flowers on both sides, and the air is filled with the fresh fragrance of soil and flowers.
