The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 34: Sheng Yuan's Hairstyle

Sheng Yuan bounced back from Shu Yuan to Yong Fan Yuan. As soon as he entered the side hall, he saw two packages, one large and one small, placed on the soft couch by the window.

Her mother and Nanny Yang were sitting beside the Eight Immortals Table and talking enthusiastically. When they saw her, they smiled and waved: "Come here, the clothes and jewelry ordered for you and your sister have just arrived. Open it and see, do you like it?" ?”

Children like gifts, and Sheng Yuan is no exception. Hearing the gift, his eyes lit up, and he rushed to the couch with his calves on his back. Don't hesitate, the smaller one must be hers.

"I'll dress up the third lady, see if you still need to adjust it, if it's okay, I'll wear it like this for the garden party later." Yang Momo took the wet handkerchief handed over by the little maid and wiped her hands. Yuan combs his hair.

Mrs. Zheng trusts Nanny Yang the most, and she nods to the side and says, "Mama is the best at dressing up people, let this little guy see your old skills."

So, before Sheng Yuan could express his opinion, he was carried to the round stool by the big maid and sat down.

"Mirror! Mirror!" Sheng Yuan was also curious about how her hair could be combed, so she clamored to put a mirror on the table.

In this way, she can take a selfie in the mirror.

Hmph, the little lady is more beautiful, that's normal!

Zheng Shi made her laugh out loud at this reaction, and hastily waved her hand to signal the servant girl to quickly satisfy the little guy.

Sheng Yuan waited for the mirror to be put away, her small body straightened up unconsciously, and her fat and tender little paws obediently placed on her knees, she blinked her big black eyes and stared at the child in the mirror: Tsk tsk, It looks so cute!

Seeing how intoxicated she was admiring herself, Yang Nanny almost laughed out loud.

However, she has received professional training. Although the third lady is very happy, she can still hold back and untwist the trembling little knot without trembling her arms or hands.

Although Sheng Yuan has always avoided talking about her hair shape, no one knows that her head was shaved before she was three years old, and only a bunch of hair was left on the top of her head; it was not until she was three years old that she began to grow hair. It only grows to the neck.

Nanny Yang's movements were very gentle, she untied Sheng Yuan's small tangle, and massaged her scalp while brushing her hair. She was so comfortable that her eyes narrowed, and she was about to snore a little later.

Soon, Nanny Yang skillfully piled her hair on the top of her head, not caring that many broken hairs fell out of the queue, until the tangles on the top of her head were fixed, she calmly took out a half-curved wig sticking to the comb .

She pushed the wig up against the roots of Sheng Yuan's head until all the broken hair was wrapped in the wig, and then tied the string on the wig to the small pull.

"Huh?" Sheng Yuan looked at the neat hair and looked in the mirror in surprise, no matter how she turned her head, she couldn't see any violation.

Nanny Yang smiled and picked up another slightly narrower but slightly thicker semi-curved hair piece and pasted it on the hair in front of Xiao Jiji: "Miss San, don't be surprised, this wig is made of silk mixed with wool and ponytail silk. Woven and dyed.

The hair strands of this wig you are using are split according to the thickness of your hair strands, so they look natural when put together.

Although the production process is a bit cumbersome, it is worth it. These wigs have a luster similar to real hair in the sun, and they don't look dull, but very lively. "

Sheng Yuan tilted his head and looked at himself in the mirror who had a lot more hair, curious: "Didn't you use your real hair as a wig?"

Nanny Yang smiled and said, "Of course there are, most of the wigs out there are."

She is someone who has taken care of the Zheng family, and she knows very well that if she wants to talk to children without worry, she must have the ability to ask and answer ten questions.

No, she didn't wait for Sheng Yuan to ask again, she continued to speak very consciously: "Those hairs are usually bought from women outside who want to subsidize their families, but there are also hairs that are cut from prisoners' heads." of.

It's just that the Zheng family doesn't like to use this kind of wig. They probably think it's awkward and unnatural to use other people's hair.

The wigs we use now were researched by the ancestors of the Zheng family who spent an unknown amount of money.

Although it is more expensive and unusable, but the effect is very good, and it is safe to use. "

Sheng Yuan nodded hurriedly. Although modern wigs are also made of real human hair, what is the modern technology and what is the level of ancient times?Using it is definitely not as reassuring as the composite one.

As Nanny Yang was talking, she took out another bun as big as a tea bowl and put it on her head.

Sheng Yuan looked at himself in the mirror with a bun on his head, and was stunned: it's so good-looking!

Nanny Yang fixed the position of the bun with sharp hands, and bent the little bun on top of Sheng Yuan's head into a small round head.

She turned the bun upside down and showed it to Sheng Yuan: "There is a groove in it, you can stick it into the small hairpin, and then use the gold silk hairpin to hold it in place."

As she said that, she grabbed a handful of gold silk card hairpins from the dressing box and showed it to Sheng Yuan.

Sheng Yuan's eyes widened: Isn't this a U-shaped hairpin!
Nanny Yang skillfully inserted the gold silk hairpin into the surrounding wig from the bottom side of the bun.

"Will the gold strands be obvious?" Although the mirror can't see clearly, the difference between hair strands and gold strands is not small.

"It doesn't matter, we still have decorations!" Nanny Yang fixed the bun three times, five times and two times, and asked her to shake her head a few times to see if it is firm.

Sheng Yuan was also insane. Hearing this, he shook his head vigorously. The frequency was so fast that he could see afterimages. This startled Mrs. Zheng and Nanny Yang, who hurriedly shouted to stop.

Probably because it was spinning too fast, Sheng Yuan who stopped felt a large piece of gold stars appeared in front of his eyes, and they were all twinkling and shaking.

Zheng jumped up angrily, rushed to her, patted her on the shoulder and scolded: "Why are you such a naughty child!"

Sheng Yuan didn't pay attention to the painless slap, looked at her mother innocently and asked, "Mother, why are you still dangling around?"

"..." Zheng Shi, who raised his hand and wanted to pat her a few times, laughed angrily.

She looked at the innocent look on her daughter's face, she really didn't want to hit her, and she didn't want to hit her, so she could only helplessly poke her forehead: "You! You can just do it like this!"

Sheng Yuan was so dizzy that he still hadn't forgotten the bun on his head: "Mommy, is the bun still strong?"

Seeing Zheng's speechless rolling of her eyes, Nanny Yang couldn't laugh or cry: "Strong! Very strong!"

"Oh, that's good." Sheng Yuan rolled his eyes with a smile when he thought that a beautiful hairstyle would not affect his running and jumping.

Nanny Yang gave the little girl next to her a wink, and the little girl quickly turned around and brought over a round box of red sandalwood.

"This is the crabapple flower belt Madam prepared for you. If you wrap it around the hair bun and fasten it well, it will block the hairpin." While speaking, Madam Yang surrounded Shengyuan with the blooming crabapple flower belt The bun is fastened.

Sheng Yuan blinked, looked at the "blooming" crabapple flowers around the hair bun, and repeatedly said in surprise: "It's like a bunch of hairpins on it! It seems to be real!"

If she hadn't seen that these crabapple flowers were stuck to two silver chains, she would have thought they had just been picked!
The more she looked, the more curious she became, Sheng Yuan raised her chubby hand to touch the flowers next to her bun, and her little nose moved: the feel and smell are just like real flowers.

"It's also made with complicated craftsmanship, and only two or three aristocratic families in Dachu can make it." Zheng looked at the little guy and looked up at himself, intending to ignore her, but he couldn't bear it. , I can only say it angrily.

But after saying this, she couldn't help sighing: "It is said that 800 years ago, there were old servants from aristocratic families who could make better hairpin flowers! Those flowers are of different varieties, but they are all lifelike.

Not only does it feel and smell like a real flower, but the petals of the flower can also open and close over time.

It is said that the flowers he made are placed outside to attract bees and butterflies to chase after them.

It's a pity that such craftsmanship was short-lived and soon lost its inheritance. "

"What a pity!" Sheng Yuan looked at the delicate crabapple flowers in the mirror, and thought that this was already very good, but he didn't want to see something better, it's a pity that he couldn't see it.

"Hey, that kind of flower sounds good, but the cost of making one is unimaginable, who can afford it for ordinary people?
If you have the money to keep for yourself, wouldn't it be nice to pick some flowers?

That is to say, the aristocratic family used this to compete to show their financial strength.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Dazhao in front of the Great Yan, Zhao Gaozu had people sell this kind of luxury crafts, and he specially attacked the aristocratic families who like to show off their wealth. For a while, the luxury of the aristocratic families passed down from generation to generation shrunk.

Our Da Chu family has kept a low profile since then, only Da Qi's family has remained the same, which is shocking to watch. "

Mrs. Zheng said a while, but realized that she had gone too far, so she couldn't help shaking her head.

Xin said, don't tell the child that he is sleepy.

But when she looked down, she realized that was not the case!
Sister Yuan looked up at her with her head up, and she listened with gusto!

At this moment, the little guy's big watery eyes were still blinking, as if urging her to continue talking.

"After combing your hair, don't just stay there, try on the skirt that I ordered for you." Mrs. Zheng let her little daughter look at her heart softly, and personally picked out a few butterfly hairpins with filigree hollowed out gemstones and put them on her. Begonia flowers, and then picked up the fat girl and walked to the bed.

Zheng's motherly love, the moment she picked up her little girl, she didn't know how to put it down!
When the little girl was put on the bed, her handsome face was already flushed red!

Good guy, this little girl is really overwhelming!
After such a dozen or so steps, she was so tired that she was out of breath.

Sheng Yuan didn't know anything about her own weight, nor did she notice how tired her mother was.

As soon as she sat on the couch, she plucked a butterfly from her head and held it in her hand to look at it.

The thumbnail-sized butterfly wings trembled slightly, as if it could spread its wings and fly in the blink of an eye.

"It's so beautiful!... But, isn't there too much headwear?" She vaguely remembered that there should not be too many accessories on her body.

Nanny Yang stepped forward with a smile, blocking Zheng Shi who was shaking her sore arms quietly, and while spreading her skirt, she said, "Not many, just three or five. The hairpins look very lively on the head, and the hairpins from the noble family are very lively." Miss, do you have any headgear? The so-called competition to the end is just about the details."

Sheng Yuan nodded half-understood, and focused on the skirt laid out by Nanny Yang.

She looked at a dress composed of many parts, and she felt a little dizzy.

Xiaopang tugged at the little gown, expressing that he was only a child, so he didn't need to wear so many.

Zheng's arms were sore, and she walked over to signal the little guy to stand on the couch: "You can wear casual clothes at home, but formal clothes are required for formal occasions; don't say it's a little girl, it's a young man." You can't walk around the world in a short jacket! It will make people laugh!"

"It's still for face!" Sheng Yuan sighed.

Thinking of the fact that she had to work hard for the sake of the family's face at such a young age, Sheng Yuan seemed to feel the burden on her shoulders, and it was not easy for her to hold her own!

Zheng Shi was dumbfounded by her grown-up reaction.

This little guy is exaggerating. I don't know, but I thought she worked so hard!
Just as she was about to let this little guy get it, she heard the energetic laughter of her second daughter coming in:
"Mother, sister, I'm back! The supervisor said that the queen is a garden party, so he gave us six days off! Are you happy!"

Zheng Shi covered her chest: "..."

Hehe, happy!She is so happy!
She was so happy that her eyes turned black and her head became dizzy!

It's too unreliable to study broken officials, how can you always have a holiday when you have nothing to do?It just doesn't make sense!
