After separating from my mother-in-law, I raised my children, built a house, and filled the granary
Chapter 27 Skin Beauty Pills
Night falls.
The villagers went home with the copper coins in their pockets.
For a time, everyone in the village envied those who could work for Yun Wan's family.
The fifth day of August.
Suitable for moving into the house.
Thanks to the efforts of the whole village, Shen Yunwan's new house was completed.
"Mom, is this the bedroom for Qiuhua and me?" Chunhua looked at the bright bedroom with two beds, two tables, and large windows. Although it was sealed with paper, it was a great place for her to live.
Even the bedding is brand new.
Even if you walk around the entire Ping'an Village, you won't find a single girl who has her own bedroom.
"Well, your father and I thought that your brothers would all go to school in the future, and you and Qiuhua would go to learn embroidery, so we might have to move to town, so we didn't build this house so big."
Chunhua was even more delighted when she thought that she could learn embroidery.
I pinched my thigh hard and told myself that this was not a dream.
Chunhua hugged Shen Yunwan's waist tightly. She really loved her current mother very much.
Outside the courtyard, all the villagers came to congratulate them. Shen Yunwan had set up a banquet for ten tables to celebrate the move to a new house, inviting every household in the village.
Mr. and Mrs. Lin are here too.
Looking at the magnificent earthen bricks and green tiles and the spacious houses, his eyes were full of complexity.
Now they are just like everyone else, ordinary people who come to congratulate.
Each table has six dishes, all of which are large dishes.
For ordinary families, a feast with just one meat dish is considered a big one.
You can’t find a dish like Shen Yunwan’s with four meat dishes in the entire Lotus Town.
The villagers all brought gifts from their homes.
A chicken, a basket of eggs, or a basket of vegetables.
For a moment, the end of the village was bustling with activity.
After meal.
"Aunts, there are still a lot of vegetables left. If you don't mind, take some back."
Everyone nodded. There was a lot left, and the weather was hot, so Yun Wan's family couldn't finish it.
They didn't refuse anymore.
You can take it home and let your family members try it too.
As time goes by, the weather becomes hotter and hotter.
The rice in the fields is ripe, and it's time to harvest the peanuts and soybeans.
The entire Ping'an Village is immersed in the busy autumn harvest.
Yun Wan's family of six were also busy harvesting.
Before daybreak, six people went to the fields to harvest rice and pick peanuts.
It won't stop until night.
I have been busy for most of the month.
……
The utility room was already filled with food.
The villagers have basically completed the harvest and can finally take a break.
Under the big tree at the entrance of the village, several women sat together and chatted about gossip.
Daya came to the end of the village with mung bean powder and sesame seeds.
"Sister-in-law, my mother asked me to get you some sesame and mung bean flour."
Sesame is a rare commodity in the entire Ping'an Village. Her family was not allocated any good farmland, so they had to go to the mountains to open up wasteland by themselves.
There is no water source on the mountain, so we can only grow some easy-to-grow crops.
I also tried planting some sesame seeds, and surprisingly the harvest was quite good.
So her mother asked her to bring most of the sesame seeds.
There is nothing worth showing off at home.
This bag of sesame and mung bean powder is still a rare item.
"Did you grow them?" Shen Yunwan looked at Daya, who was tanned.
"Yes, she looks pretty good."
Daya puffed out her chest, feeling a little proud.
She is good at everything she does.
Shen Yunwan touched Daya's head with some heartache, turned around and brought Daya ten eggs.
"If you don't want it, I won't take the sesame seeds."
"This……"
"Here, your mother knows I have a lot of chickens."
Daya took the eggs and thanked again and again.
Shen Yunwan held the sesame seeds in her hand and fell into deep thought.
Most of the money he had was spent on building the house.
It also owes foreign debts.
Then think about the cost of sending your children to school.
You still have to find a way to make money.
If you just see patients and don't have a pharmacy, and your income is limited, maybe you can go the route of health preservation.
You can use the system's various potions to make various pills.
After thinking about it, Shen Yunwan bought a bottle of skin care water, mixed the sesame seeds and the medicine with well water, steamed them, fried them slightly until fragrant, ground them into powder, and added a few other medicinal ingredients to make pills the size of peppercorns.
Each one is placed in an exquisite wooden box, and then the word "cloud" is written on it.
Write the smaller words "Mei Fu Wan" under the "Yun" character.
……
"This is the skin-beautifying pill I'm going to make. As the name suggests, it can make Shen Yunwan's skin more delicate." She handed the pill to Lin Chengfeng.
"This is the box for the skin-beautifying pills." He handed the exquisite wooden box to Lin Chengfeng, "It looks good, doesn't it?"
Lin Chengfeng, "What do you want me to do?"
"Your handwriting is very beautiful." Shen Yunwan just finished speaking.
Lin Chengfeng picked up the brush on the table and wrote the word "cloud" on the paper stroke by stroke.
"Does it look good?" Lin Chengfeng's low voice floated into Shen Yunwan's ears.
"It looks good." Shen Yunwan looked at the words on the paper with admiration in her eyes.
"Are you going to sell it in town?"
"Not only in the town, but also in the capital. Each one costs one tael of silver."
Shen Yunwan's words had just fallen.
"Capital? One or two taels of silver each?" Lin Chengfeng was a little shocked. This was too expensive.
This thing wouldn't even be served in the afternoon tea at a noble family in Beijing.
Then, thinking of Shen Yunwan's peculiarity...
He was lost in thought.
No one in Lotus Town covets her abilities. If she goes to the capital and someone discovers her abnormality, it will definitely trigger a fight for her among the powerful. By then, can he still protect her?
Then he remembered the new guard.
On that day, Ping'an Village was sealed off. Lin Chengfeng crossed several mountains and met Liu Ze, the current town commander.
Liu Ze was his classmate and a distant relative of the Qiao family in Beijing, but his family was in business.
They had taken part in the imperial examination together, and Liu Ze was able to stand out in the provincial examination thanks to Lin Chengfeng.
Lin Chengfeng had predicted the exam questions correctly and even reviewed with him in advance. When the results were announced, Liu Ze was very happy that he was on the list, but he was puzzled that he didn't find Lin Chengfeng's name.
Later, Lin Chengfeng told him that the time had not come yet and he was waiting.
After that, Liu Ze never made any further progress. His family spent money to find someone to help him, and he started as a garrison commander.
There are also many people who just want to defend their positions.
Lin Chengfeng had a secret chat with him about the situation in Ping'an Village, and also took the complaint with the villagers' fingerprints to report to the county magistrate and surrender to him.
The original governor of Hehua Town and the county magistrate were not on the same side, and the county magistrate was also troubled by having no leverage to make things difficult for the governor of Yungui Town.
Liu Ze's surrender this time undoubtedly gave the county magistrate an opportunity to remove the garrison of Yungui Town.
With the help of money and connections, Liu Ze became the new governor of Yungui Town.
Lin Chengfeng took some "skin beauty pills" and went to the town.
"Afeng, you're here." Liu Ze greeted him from afar.
The two entered the house.
"This is a 'skin-beautifying pill'."
Liu Ze opened it and smelled it, "Isn't this just an ordinary meatball?"
"I've added a secret recipe. Take one of these seven pills daily and feel the changes in your body."
Lin Chengfeng didn't say much.
At the same time, Shen Yunwan found Mrs. Meng.
I heard from Lin Xiangdong before that Madam Meng would come to Beijing in the near future. She was originally from Beijing, but she was a concubine's daughter of a wealthy family.
"Aunt, you asked me to give Madam the facial mask to apply on her face. Madam has been using it for over a month as you instructed, and she is now radiant. She even asked me if you have any more, as she wants to take them to the capital as a gift for her handkerchief friend."
Lin Xiangdong still calls Shen Yunwan his aunt.
He had warned his family members many times not to bother his aunt-in-law. He had long seen that his aunt-in-law was not an easy person to deal with.
These days, he worked diligently at the Meng family, occasionally bringing some things to Shen Yunwan and his wife, such as facial masks and "beautifying pills."
