Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress

Chapter 810 Expensive Rouge (5)

Du Ruhai was sitting on a chair, with stiff smile lines etched on his face, but his heart was already as bitter as if he had eaten Coptis chinensis.

He really didn't want to accept this marriage, but Li Hai's words had clearly told them that if Duke An Guo didn't accept this marriage, Concubine Jin would definitely blame him.

Concubine Jin is the woman who has been favored by the emperor all his life. She is very capable and scheming. If Duke An Guo makes her unhappy, she is probably not far away from death. All she needs to do is blow the wind on the emperor's pillow and he will be called. Duke Anguo's mansion was reduced to ashes!

The expressions of the whole family were noticed by Li Hai. He smiled sarcastically, flicked his sleeves, and said lazily: "It's getting late. The Za family has to go back to the palace to resume their duties. Later, the Za family will meet the imperial concubine." , I told the imperial concubine that this marriage was not appropriate, and that the young lady from Duke Anguo’s mansion did not want to marry someone with a physical disability, haha..."

As he spoke, he stood up with his chin raised and wanted to leave.

When Du Yongbang saw it, he no longer cared about his father and elder brother's wishes. He hurriedly stepped forward, stopped in front of Li Hai, and said with a flattering smile: "Father, wait a minute. Please sit down first. Let's discuss it slowly!" "

Li Hai glanced sideways at Du Ruhai and his son, and said with a half-smile, "Forget it, since both the Duke and Lord Du look down on our Wuchang Marquis family, what's the use of talking more. As the saying goes, forceful people The melon is not sweet, and since my family is not happy with it, I’d better go back and rejoin the imperial concubine as soon as possible!"

These words shocked Du Ruhai and his son, who looked down upon the palace of Wuchang Marquis! How dare they look down on the court of the Marquis of Wuchang? You must know that Concubine Jin is from the Houfu of Wuchang. Even if they have ten heads, they don't dare to look down on the court of the Marquis of Wuchang!

Du Ruhai saw that Li Hai was really angry and even said such words. He was so frightened that he couldn't care about anything. He repeatedly raised his hands and said, "Eunuch Li's words are serious. How dare you look down on Wuchang Marquis Mansion, just an Anguo Mansion?" I've been waiting for so long, oh, if you still want, please ask your father-in-law to do it for you. Go back and tell your empress that Duke An Guo has agreed to this marriage. It's up to your empress to decide when to get married..."

When Li Hai heard this, he turned from anger to joy and said: "Oh, the Duke is really a transparent person. Come on, let's go back now and help the noble concubine arrange to marry her brother's wife, hehehe..."

Du Ruhai and Du Yongzhi laughed together and sent Li Hai away.

As soon as Li Hai left, the smiles on the faces of Du Ruhai and his son fell.

"Hey, it's really a rainy day when the house leaks!"

The Du family father and son sat down dejectedly, as if they had been beaten by frost. There had just been a funeral in the family, Du Yulang's family died tragically, and Wang's family was paralyzed. The family has not yet come out of the grief, and now their daughter has been forcibly married by a notorious eunuch. What evil has the Anguo Palace done?

When Caiwei heard Yingge say this, she sneered. They had been domineering for half their lives, and it was time for them to have a taste of being bullied by others!

In the evening, Mu Zhongqing came back early and brought back a box of 'Mifangzhai' rouge for his birthday daughter.

I remember that when the family went to the evening market in Yushu County last year, Mu Zhongqing bought a copycat version of 'Mifangzhai' rouge for the three women in the family. Fei'er was very happy at the time and secretly used it several times afterwards. , but because the smell of the rouge was too pungent, and the powder was unevenly ground, it looked like a monkey's butt when applied to her face. In the end, she had no choice but to put the box of rouge away on the shelf, and did not dare to apply it easily again.

This time, what Mu Zhongqing brought back to his daughter was an enamel silver oblate box. The rouge inside was a pink paste with a vague fragrance. It smelled very good, but if If you don’t smell it carefully, you really can’t smell it!

Fei'er held the box of rouge, looked at it, smelled it again and again, her love was beyond words. Mu Zhongqing was very happy to see that her daughter liked it, so she smiled and said, "This is the most expensive one in Mi Fang Zhai." The rouge is called 'moisturizing balm' and it is the most nourishing to the skin. I heard that even the ladies in the palace are using it!"

Caiwei took the box of rouge, looked at it, smelled it, and asked casually: "Dad, how much does this box of rouge cost?"

Mu Zhongqing glanced at Mrs. Du anxiously and smiled, a little afraid to say anything, lest his wife would complain about his spending money.

When he and his wife looked at each other, he quickly made a fifty sign with his hands, trying to hide it from his wife.

Unexpectedly, he was betrayed by two unscrupulous daughters at the same time.

"Fifty taels?"

Caiwei and Caifei screamed at the same time, both of them were shocked. Oh my God, this is too expensive. Fifty taels for a small box of rouge. This, this, is simply more expensive than gold!

Mu Zhongqing was betrayed by his daughter, and his body stiffened for a moment. He turned around with a guilty conscience, glanced at his wife, and explained in a low voice: "Meiniang, this is not an ordinary rouge, it is made from the exotic green vine imported from the Quluo Kingdom. The green vines bloom only once every three years, and each plant can only bloom three or four flowers. A box of rouge like this would require hundreds of flowers to be steamed out!"
