Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

Generous?

The buyer is not as smart as the seller.

The value of the gold card can only be realized when spending in Fuqi Pavilion. When spending in Fuqi Pavilion, the money is earned by Xiao Yunxi, and the one who makes a profit is still Xiao Yunxi.

The recommended membership system can bring in a steady stream of customers without any publicity.

The wife of Marquis Jingyang is the best example.

I recommend her sister-in-law to apply for a silver card. The membership alone is 300 taels. If she applies for a gold card, the minimum annual consumption is 1500 taels. Her private circle covers at least 10 people.

That is 3000-liang income,

The people she recommended then recommended others, and the number of customers applying for membership cards grew like a snowball.

There were about 10 female members present, including ladies and young ladies. Their circle definitely covered all the powerful people in the capital. There was no need for Fuqiu Pavilion to advertise, as countless guests came to the door.

Some people say that the first recharge for a gold card is 500 taels, and annual spending of 1500 taels is too much.

Is it too much?

Indeed a lot.

It certainly wouldn't take that much just to buy soap, but what the powerful care about is money?

What they care about is status!

Others get gold cards, but I only get silver cards. I can’t afford to lose face!

"Sisters, my sister-in-law will definitely want a gold card. When the time comes, you must jointly recommend her to me."

"Of course, my aunt must get a gold card too."

"It will be easy for everyone to sign their names together."

"We agreed that if we don't have a good relationship, we are not allowed to recommend anyone."

Look, they are starting to form cliques. The more this happens, the more precious the gold card becomes. Anyway, Xiao Yunxi has the authority, as long as it can be consumed,

Even if she is the eldest princess, she must be given a gold card.

Since they were so eager to make money for her, Xiao Yunxi couldn't treat them unfairly.

"Aunts and sisters, please help me promote our shop. I'm very grateful. My second gift is a new product from Fuqiu Pavilion, perfume."

The maid came in carrying a tray, making it look like an auction. The ladies, who hadn't recovered from the surprise of the soap, screamed in surprise again:

"Liuli!"

"It's Liuli?"

The small glass bottle does not have the transparency of later generations, but it is shocking enough. After all, this small piece of glass is worth a fortune.

Xiao Yunxi curled her lips. This thing will soon be worthless.

"Fuqi Pavilion has many other products besides soap. This is perfume... filled with glass."

Open the cork and brush against everyone's nose.

"It smells good."

"Jasmine's."

"I like."

The faint scent of jasmine penetrates the nose, and no daughter can resist it. If there is, it means that she doesn't like the smell of jasmine, so she should try rose or osmanthus instead.

If soap can capture a woman's heart, then perfume is enough to drive her crazy.

Because there are substitutes for soap, such as soap with flower petals. Although the effect is not as good as soap, it is still a substitute. But there is no substitute for perfume.

Sachet?

Absolutely not.

The scent of the sachet is light, and sometimes you can't even smell it if you're not careful. The perfume has a strong scent that can release a woman's charm to the greatest extent.

Don't look at the grandmothers here, the oldest is only 40, this kind of thing is not too attractive to them,

The young girls were not keen on perfume. They preferred the headdresses, accessories and various bold clothes that Xiao Yunxi brought.

Their eyes lit up when the maids appeared in clothes of all kinds of strange shapes.

"Sister Yunxi, this dress is so beautiful."

"I like this shirt. It's easy to put on and take off."

"A skirt and a T-shirt are also very convenient."

When Xiao Yunxi was reborn, it was late autumn. The weather was cold, and clothes didn't need to be put on and taken off frequently.

After arriving in the capital, the weather turned hot. Daxia's clothes had no buttons and lining, making them inconvenient to put on and take off.

Xiao Yunxi designed many clothes suitable for summer wear, including skirts, T-shirts, wide-leg pants, and buttoned shirts, with the main focus being coolness and convenience.

If she wears the clothes alone, it is a strange outfit, but if many ladies wear them, it is a fashion trend.

She did everything she could to feel comfortable wearing what she wore, but she didn't expect that girls seemed to accept her bold outfits so easily.

Actually, it’s not surprising when you think about it.

Everyone loves beauty. The clothes she designed are bold in color, the patterns on the skirts are even more gorgeous, and they are easy to put on and take off. There is no reason not to like her.

The gifts that Xiao Yunxi gave to everyone captured the hearts of the ladies and young ladies. The ladies treated her as their own daughters, and the young ladies treated her as their big sisters.

Xia Moli, the eldest daughter of Marquis Jingyang's Mansion, is simply her fangirl. She thinks Sister Yunxi is tall and Sister Yunxi is short, and her eyes are full of little stars.

The promotion of Fuqiu Pavilion was very successful, and the next step was the restaurant.

For the lunch banquet, Xiao Yunxi prepared several dishes on her own, including Mapo Tofu, Tofu with Scallions, Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes, and Twice-Cooked Pork.

"good to eat."

"Oh my god, the golden cake smells so good."

“The chili is delicious.”

The people present had tasted all kinds of delicacies from land and sea, and the smoothness of tofu instantly conquered their taste buds.

When everyone was marveling at the deliciousness of the golden cake, the maids reappeared with a tray on which was a glass bottle with a faint fruity fragrance.

"smell good."

"Is it a fruity scent?"

"Is this wine? It's colorful,"

They had seen perfume in glass bottles before and were not surprised by it. What they were curious about was the wine in the glass bottles, which came in various colors.

"This is fruit wine, made from fruit, very suitable for women, everyone try it,"

wine?

Can fruits be used to make wine?

It's really strange.

Picking up the wine glasses, the ladies took a sip cautiously, their brows opened,

It has a light taste of alcohol, but not too spicy, and the alcohol is topped with a strong fruity aroma. Add ice cubes and you'll feel a chill all over your body after drinking it.

“Fresh, refreshing, sweet…”

"It has the aroma of wine, but it's not strong."

“It’s delicious and perfect for summer.”

"There seems to be ice in it, Shumo, there is ice in your house?"

The ancients would store ice in winter.

During the coldest season of the year, ice is the hardest and hardest to melt, so people start to cut ice for storage.

The steward or official in charge of ice storage would supervise the servants to go to places with better water quality to chisel ice and store it in pre-prepared ice cellars.

Ice cellars are all underground. They are surrounded by straw and reeds. Ice blocks are stacked and covered with rice grains, leaves, etc. to seal the cellar entrance.

This method of storing ice results in a loss of over 7%. Even a marquis or a duke can only store a small amount, and it definitely wouldn't last until the summer.

It is very rare that the Zhou family can produce ice cubes.

"I'll send a truckload of ice to your homes tomorrow. Let's have a toast."

Everyone had ice cubes, and no one was curious about where the ice cubes in Zhou Mansion came from. They all raised their glasses.

"cheers."

"cheers."

The young girl drank the fruit wine in the glass generously, smacking her lips. It tasted sweet and delicious.

They usually kept a strict control on us and never allowed us to drink, but today was an exception, so of course we had to drink to our heart's content.

The ladies thought that this wine was not strong in alcohol and it was okay to drink some, but...
