Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it
Chapter 692 Performance Hall
The waiter brought in several long plates covered with plain brocade, and when he lifted the gauze coverings, he saw more than twenty kinds of scented soap neatly arranged inside.
These pancreases are similar in size, but each one is different. Some are light milky white and are embedded with tiny petals.
Some of them are light green, and you can vaguely see the crushed herbal powder.
Some are covered with a layer of crystal frosting-like substance, and smell of sweet fruity fragrance.
The color and texture alone are several times more refined than ordinary soap bars.
A lady picked up a piece of pancreas inlaid with golden osmanthus, sniffed it again and again and said:
"I only saw three kinds in your shop the other day: goat milk soap was smooth, rose soap was intoxicatingly fragrant, and there was a mint soap that was refreshing.
I didn’t expect there would be so many things here!”
The people around also reached out to look through it. One picked up the one with sandalwood scent, and the other picked up the one with gardenia scent.
Bai Wanwan stood aside and said:
"That's right! The shop is small, so we only have the most popular items on display. These are all new recipes made in the workshop.
Look at this one with Poria cocos added, it can brighten your skin when washed, and the one with mugwort mixed in is the most refreshing to use in hot weather.
There is also this one with honey, which makes your hands moisturized after washing.
Each one is formulated according to the properties of the medicinal ingredients. Not only can it cleanse thoroughly, but it is also truly beneficial to the skin! "
The ladies were so excited that they wanted this and that. In a short while, all the piled things were snatched away.
Their family was not short of money, and the young ladies had picked a lot.
Some of the cosmetics sold by Bai Wanwan cost over a thousand taels for a small box, and the cheaper ones cost over a hundred taels, which is really not cheap.
But who cares about this? It's expensive, so what? For a woman to be beautiful, this little money is nothing.
One lady took out several tens of thousands of taels of silver at once and told someone to pack them up while saying, "I'll divide all this up when I get home. I have a large family and many sisters, so naturally I have to buy more."
Another lady next to her also said:
“These things really have tangible benefits.
Take the one I used before for example! I have only been using it for a short time and my skin has become several shades whiter. It is worth the price!
This made others regret not buying more, and they surrounded Bai Wanwan and asked when there would be new goods next time.
Lin Zaozao and Qi Yao stood aside, very angry, and quickly left with a group of people.
Walking outside, Lin Zao Zao sneered and said, "I just can't stand seeing Bai Wanwan's success. Look at how cocky she is."
Qi Yao sneered, "She's just a country bumpkin, what are you afraid of? If anything happens to this farm, won't she be ruined?"
Lin Zao Zao looked at Qi Yao and said, "What the princess means is..."
Qi Yao smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, we're going to stay here for more than ten days. A lot of things can happen in ten days!"
Lin Zao Zao smiled sinisterly and said, "That's true."
In just a short while, these ladies bought out all the cosmetics, and she made more than 10 taels of silver.
Bai Wanwan looked at the ladies and said, "I'll take you to rest for a while. We have a play here tonight. It's all the latest fashion. Everyone should come and see it..."
These ladies and noble girls returned to the restaurant happily.
At night, the villa was brightly lit, and a group of ladies went directly to a special performance hall, which was several times larger than an ordinary theater. Under the high dome, rows of pearwood chairs were arranged layer by layer.
At the front is a stage covered with red carpet, and there are racks in the corners for acrobats to do somersaults. It looks very impressive.
A young lady couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes widening. "There's such a large performance hall! I've been to many villas and other houses, but I've never seen anything this grand!"
The ladies around also nodded, their faces full of amazement.
When ordinary families entertain guests, they would at most set up a small stage to perform a few plays. Where have they ever seen such a large space specially set aside and even a complete range of acrobatic facilities?
Qi Guangheng sat upright on the highest stand in front of him, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingertips. He glanced around the entire venue and said calmly, "This seat is not bad."
The eunuch Sun Quan who was serving beside him immediately bowed and said with a smile:
"You have good taste! This is the best seat in the entire hall, with the widest view.
No matter what is being performed on stage, you can see it clearly, even the actors' eyebrows and eyes can be clearly seen. It is specially reserved for our distinguished guests."
As soon as he finished speaking, a smart maid came forward with a tray and placed it on Qi Guangheng's table first.
The crystal plate was filled with freshly cut lychees and grapes, each one plump and juicy.
The celadon plate contained melon seeds, almonds, and a few delicate snacks, such as thousand-layer cake and plum blossom pastry. They were small and exquisite, exuding a sense of refinement.
Soon, the maids brought a few more plates of braised food. The duck necks soaked in red oil were cut evenly, and the shiny braised duck tongues were placed on white porcelain plates.
There are also duck heads split in half, wrapped in secret spices, which look greasy and tempting. The table is also filled with duck wings and duck gizzards. The aroma of the braised duck mixed with a slightly spicy flavor makes people drool.
The eunuchs who were accompanying him had already stepped forward, picked up the silver needles and tried them one by one. They also took some to taste, and only stepped aside after confirming that there was no problem.
There were several tables set up against the wall, and more than a dozen chefs were busy working on the freshly roasted duck.
The duck was shiny and bright red. It had just been taken off the charcoal stove and was still steaming. Oil beads rolled down the duck skin and hit the table with a sizzling sound. The fragrance filled the whole house in an instant.
The chefs held thin slicing knives in their hands and started slicing the meat in no time.
The sliced meat was neatly arranged on a white plate.
Various things had already been placed next to it, including stacks of dough sheets that were so thin that they were translucent.
There was a thick sauce in the small dish, which smelled a bit sweet.
There are also finely chopped green onions, tender yellow ginger shreds, and cucumbers cut into strips, which are green and refreshing to look at.
Everyone around stared in amazement and whispered to each other.
One official pointed at the thin piece of paper and couldn't help asking, "What is this? Can you eat it?"
The nobleman beside him couldn't help but ask, "This way of eating is quite novel, wrapping the meat in paper?"
As he was speaking, a master demonstrated with a smile:
"Take a piece of dough, put two or three slices of duck meat on it, spread some sauce on it, and grab a few shredded green onions and cucumber strips.
When you put your fingers together, you can roll it into a small curl."
Someone rolled one up and put it in their mouth. After just two chews, their eyes lit up: "Hey! The skin is crispy! The sauce is sweet, and paired with shredded green onions and cucumbers, it's not greasy at all!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else rushed to action, and for a moment the whole room was filled with the crisp sounds of "crackling" and "tutting".
“I never thought roast duck could be eaten this way!”
"This dough looks thin, but it's quite delicious when wrapped in it!"
"This sauce is perfect with the meaty aroma and the refreshing taste. It goes really well with rice!"
