Chapter 209 Try lipstick
There are lights everywhere and a festive atmosphere everywhere.
After visiting the Lantern Festival, everyone went to the Xiliang River in the city to put lanterns in the river.
The lovely lanterns represent a kind of sacrifice by the living people to their dead ancestors.
The emperor had never seen such a grand folk event, so naturally he couldn't get enough of it.
To sum up, it’s great to be alive!
On this day, Su Xiaoxiao saw Liu Qiaomei having nothing to do, so she opened a small box of fragrant things and asked Liu Qiaomei to come over and give it a try.
"What is this, red?"
When Su Xiaoxiao first made the facial cream, the first person she thought of was Liu Qiaomei, so she happily ran over to give Liu Qiaomei a try.
"What is this? Isn't it poisonous?"
Liu Qiaomei actually questioned Su Xiaoxiao, and Su Xiaoxiao patted her on the head.
"What are you thinking about? This is called lipstick. It's poisonous. Can I ask you to test it?"
"Lipstick, you mean the kind you put on your mouth?"
At that time, if people wanted to paint the color of their lips, they would use a piece of red paper, put it next to their lips and smack it gently, and the color would be applied.
But what Su Xiaoxiao took out was a box of red paste.
Liu Qiaomei has really never seen this thing before.
In fact, making lipstick is also very simple. Su Xiaoxiao now has a beehive, and refining beeswax is very simple. She picked some roses and came back, which can be made into lipstick.
Of course she tried it on herself first, but the mirror was very blurry and she felt the colors didn't look that clear.
Su Xiaoxiao dipped a little lipstick on her finger and prepared to apply it to Liu Qiaomei's mouth.
But Liu Qiaomei was still worried and ran away like a little rabbit.
Su Xiaoxiao was anxious behind and wanted to catch her back.
I happened to meet Pei Yuan who had just gotten up from the house and was about to come to the yard to wash his face.
Su Xiaoxiao saw Pei Yuan's hair disheveled and a handsome, white face that was more beautiful than a woman under the thick black hair. Su Xiaoxiao suddenly felt "malicious" in her heart.
She smiled at Pei Yuan a little maliciously: "Sanlang, I have something to ask you!"
Pei Yuan was startled. It had been a long time since Su Xiaoxiao called him Sanlang.
Su Xiaoxiao came to him and asked him to sit on the stone bench in the yard, otherwise he would not be able to reach his mouth.
"What are you going to do?"
"hey-hey!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked flattering, but she raised her head and said to Pei Yuan very sincerely: "Can you do me a favor?"
Pei Yuan originally wanted to agree without thinking, but when he saw the bottle of red paste in Su Xiaoxiao's hand, he refused gently but ruthlessly: "I don't want it."
Su Xiaoxiao took a look and thought that was not possible. Except for Pei Yuan, whose skin was suitable for applying these, the emperor was naturally not allowed to apply them on others. Besides, the emperor was still a middle-aged uncle with beards, and he only needed to put on lipstick. It would be neither fish nor fowl.
As for Eunuch Liu, Su Xiaoxiao thought that goosebumps would fall all over her body. No, Eunuch Liu's lips would be very red if she didn't put on lipstick now.
"Just help others, I've worked very hard."
Su Xiaoxiao didn't know when she learned to pout and act cute, and she is still so cute.
"You look at it like it's something women use. How would you behave if you asked me to try it on for you?"
Pei Yuanxin said that he was a general after all, so what should he do if word of this got out?
Su Xiaoxiao said hurriedly: "You don't know, a thousand years later men will also start to use this woman's rouge and gouache, and they will not dare to go out on the street without applying it."
"ah?"
Pei Yuan looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief.
Su Xiaoxiao took advantage of the victory and said, "Don't worry, I'll just apply a little bit to see the effect. I'll wipe it off for you right away."
Pei Yuan lowered his head and looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who looked at him with a pitiful begging look. "Okay, but no one is allowed to say anything about this!"
Pei Yuan spoke firmly, as if threatening Su Xiaoxiao.
"I promise, don't worry, only the two of us know about this."
Su Xiaoxiao was very excited. She asked Pei Yuan to sit upright again and gently raised his chin with her hand.
When he woke up in the morning, there was still some stubble on Pei Yuan's chin, which was slightly prickly.
The skin on this face is really amazing.
Fair and fair, not even a small spot can be found.
You have beautiful eyebrows. How do you grow your eyebrows?
It seems like thick ink, and the eyebrow shape is so beautiful that I can’t even draw it.
Why is the cicada underneath the sparkling eyes so cute?
The tall nose bridge is really too long.
Seeing Pei Yuan so close, Su Xiaoxiao felt a little excited.
She hurriedly calmed down, "Your face is a bit dry. I'll apply the moisturizing cream I made on you later!"
Pei Yuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Hurry up, get up soon, everyone in the family will see it."
"well……"
Su Xiaoxiao was afraid that Pei Yuan would be angry and not help her try again, so she focused her eyes on Pei Yuan's lips.
The lips are also so perfect, “The mouth is quite beautiful.
Not thin or thick, with clear contours. Even so, it still has a slightly pouty look, which makes it very kissable.
wrong! Su Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about?
Her hands began to tremble, one hand held Pei Yuan's chin, and the other hand put lipstick on his lips, and began to apply it carefully for Pei Yuan.
As long as you don't look into his eyes, it will be fine, Su Xiaoxiao told herself in her heart.
"Okay, take a sip yourself."
"Sip what?"
Pei Yuan didn't understand what was going on, so Su Xiaoxiao quickly demonstrated to her.
"Just like this."
After Su Xiaoxiao demonstrated to Pei Yuan the action of pursed lips, Pei Yuan pursed his lips a few times. Unexpectedly, the lipstick was pushed out of his lips. Su Xiaoxiao carefully wiped his lips with her hands a few times, and then removed the color from his lips. Reapply evenly.
"alright."
Su Xiaoxiao clapped her hands, she was very satisfied with her masterpiece.
The color of this lipstick is neither too bright nor too light.
"What am I like now?"
Pei Yuan was very curious, "You can find out by looking at the mirror yourself."
"Or you can try kissing the back of your hand."
Pei Yuan was still sitting on the stone bench without moving. Suddenly, he took one of Su Xiaoxiao's hands, lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand, let go, and looked at it carefully.
"So that's what it is. Very good!"
Su Xiaoxiao's face was already redder than the lipstick she made. She quickly pulled her hand back from Pei Yuan's, turned around and ran away.
Pei Yuan looked at Su Xiaoxiao's running back, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped off the lipstick on his mouth.
The emperor happened to get up and when he walked to the courtyard, he saw that Pei Yuan's mouth was red. Even after wiping it off, it was still very red.
He glanced sideways at Pei Yuan, "This morning, have you eaten a child to death? His mouth is so red. It's terrible. A man who is already good-looking has such a red mouth!"
