Mrs. Liu did not make trouble because she had two sons who were the beneficiaries of enlightenment; Mrs. Lin had two girls who were supported by the Zhu family, so even if she had any objections, she did not dare to express them in front of Ye Yuran; as for Liu,

Shit, she has nothing, and it is normal for her to feel unbalanced.

Ye Yuran dared to pretend that she didn't see it. It was just relying on Mrs. Liu's temperament. Although she kept making little moves, she did not dare to get in front of Ye Yuran. No matter how much she "encouraged" Mrs. Lin, it was useless. Mrs. Lin's two

As long as this girl stays at Zhu's house, she has to keep her mouth shut.

Mr. Li, as the biggest gainer of benefits, just ignores other things when he is proud.

What Ye Yuran likes most about Li is that she always only focuses on the key points. Although sometimes, the key points that Li focuses on are always just what Li thinks are the key points, but as long as Ye Yuran gives Li a key point, then

That’s it.

So Ye Yuran gave Li a key point - to do business and make money.

Obviously, Mrs. Li is also very good at this. Her nature of gossiping is brought to the extreme when doing business. She is enthusiastic about everyone she meets, gets close to them, chats, and sells things by the way.

"It's okay for you to keep an eye on your sisters-in-law. You are a sister-in-law. What they do is their business. It's up to your brothers to keep an eye on them. If it doesn't work, there is also me, the mother-in-law. You are a girl.

At home, just worry about your own affairs, and worry less about the affairs of other houses." Ye Yuran continued to preach to Zhu Bamei, "Look at which girl from this family has nothing to do with intervening in the affairs of her brother and sister-in-law's house? If this word gets out, you will be in trouble in the future.

How to be a human being?”

"Mom, I know I was wrong." Zhu Bamei weakly admitted her mistake.

"Don't just say it with your mouth, keep it in your heart. It's fine if you say it in front of me. In front of your sisters-in-law, you must not say these words, you know? You can't say it outside. Others won't say anything about you.

A few sister-in-laws are not good, they will only say that you, a sister-in-law, are arrogant and a bitch... Do you like others to call you a bitch?"

Zhu Bamei shook her head: "I don't like it."

"That's it. Look, why don't you make the bracelet, and more people will surround you. If you make the bracelet better in the future, Rouge will also do better, and then people will surround you.

There will definitely be more people turning around. Instead of spending this time gossiping with others and gossiping about these messy things, it is better to be patient and make something good. With this, others will praise you for a lifetime."

Zhu Bamei had naturally tasted the sweetness inside, and nodded frequently, thinking that her mother was right.

It’s just this little habit of gossiping that probably won’t change in a while. After all, if you live in the countryside, which mother-in-law and aunt doesn’t gossip?

As long as Zhu Bamei takes action, there will definitely be many people pulling her into "gossip".

Regarding this reality, Ye Yuran was also a little helpless. She couldn't keep Zhu Bamei at home all day long and not let her go out, right?

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Haven't you always wanted to learn how to make rouge? Let's make a new one today."

Zhu Bamei was surprised: "Really, mother?"

What Ye Yuran taught her before was the starch method. She borrowed the rice noodles at home to make "starch" first, then made the prepared flower cake into safflower and immersed it in the starch, and it was done.

The biggest difficulty is that the starch must be ground finely enough, otherwise it will not stick to the skin easily.

Given their current conditions, it is naturally impossible for them to do a very good job, and all they use are the crudest methods.

The reason why we choose rice to make it is because the starch made from rice is finer and can stick to the skin better. It does not just grind the rice directly, but needs to put the clean rice into a soaking tank and soak it for a day.

After one night, wash with clean water.

If we were in modern times, we could still add some things to it, but at this time, there weren't that many chemicals at all, so that's all.

When the rice is soaked until it breaks into pieces when pinched with your fingers, it is almost ready. Then use a garlic mortar to mash it into a pulp (because the Zhu family had not yet produced a stone mill at that time).

After the pulp is ready, put it into the cotton cloth and squeeze it slowly to make sure it is really worn.

Fortunately, the amount of rouge I was making was not large. Otherwise, if I were to do this, I wouldn’t know how long it would take to get it done.

The cotton cloth was filtered again and again, and the cotton cloth was unnecessary. In order not to waste it, Zhu Bamei naturally took it back and added it to other food for her sisters-in-law to make it into a meal. The filtered filtrate is what needs to be kept.

"starch".

At this time, "precipitation" is needed.

After standing for a while, the water will have something settling down, and that thin, thin layer is the real starch.

Pour out the water carefully and gently, and the rest will continue to settle until all the water inside is "dry". This is the prepared "starch" used to prepare rouge.

Because this took too much effort, Zhu Bamei didn't do much every time. Except for keeping a little for herself, she basically sold all of it.

Although under Ye Yuran's instructions, she would give a copy to several sister-in-laws every time she made it, but in fact Zhu Bamei knew that none of her sisters-in-law was willing to use it, so they all were "sold" to the fourth sister-in-law.

Zhu Bamei was so angry that she didn't want to give it the second time, but her mother said, "Give it, why don't you give it? Since you gave it to your sisters-in-law, it's their business to deal with it, so you just have to give it."

She was unconvinced at the time and said: "I gave it to them and they sold it, so why should I give it to them?"

"You are stupid. You gave it to them and they sold it. This proves that they got a 'profit'. After getting a 'profit' from you, they dare to say something bad about you in the future? If they dare to say it, you dare to cut off this

benefit."

Zhu Bamei: "..."

Suddenly it felt like her mother was more ruthless than her.

"The rouge we make this time is different from the previous one. The previous one requires starch, trouble. What I'm teaching you this time is to use ready-made osmanthus oil to make it." Ye Yuran asked Zhu Bamei,

The osmanthus oil I asked her to buy the first time is still there.

Osmanthus oil is relatively expensive, so naturally Zhu Bamei was reluctant to use it, and there was still quite a lot of it.

"That's all. Go get some of the red flower cakes you made."

"Mom, wait a minute." Zhu Bamei immediately took out a safflower cake.

Although safflower has the effect of aborting abortion, the dyeing effect of safflower is not as good as long as the person using it is not pregnant.

"Mom, what are you going to do next?" Zhu Bamei asked.

This time Ye Yuran didn't do anything and said directly: "There are two methods. One is to follow the method of starch rouge, put the safflower bag into straw ash to clarify it several times, and mix the remaining red pigment with osmanthus oil;

One is to crush the safflower finely, filter out the residue with fine sand, then add osmanthus oil and mix it. Both of these are rouge."
