After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

Wei Zhan didn't show up, and Yingbao finally lived a peaceful life for two days.

When the girls were not going out to do errands, they learned how to make rouge and face powder from Yan Ru.

They went to pick some lotus and red and blue flowers, then put them in a stone bowl and pestled them repeatedly, then washed them with water, poured off the upper layer of yellow liquid, and finally the red ointment that precipitated became bright rouge.

Scrape these rich rouges into tiny porcelain vases and they'll last a long time.

The production of face powder is more troublesome. Folk women often use Yingdie powder made of ground chestnut rice powder to apply on the face, while noble ladies from aristocratic families often use lead powder, or add varying amounts of lead powder and aluminum powder to the chestnut rice powder.

There is also Jade Girl Peach Blossom Powder blended with gypsum, talc, clam powder, wax fat, musk musk deer and motherwort.

Yanru taught them to roast the mussel shells on the fire, remove the outer layer of black shell, leaving only the shiny layer inside, mash and grind it into fine powder.

Then the lotus flower and peony flower are dried and ground into powder, and mixed with clam powder and chestnut rice powder.

This kind of fragrance powder is soft and smooth on the face, and it would be better if a little lead powder is added.

But Yingbao said that women who apply lead powder will get sick, so Yanru is not allowed to add lead powder.

On this day, Yanru was taking a few girls to make rouge, when suddenly some unexpected guests came.

Leng's mother-in-law Granny Cao took her son and daughter to Jiang Erlang's house.

Jiang Erlang was not at home at the moment, Yanru didn't know these people, so she was pushed and shoved several times by them.

"You vixen! You actually seduced my son-in-law!" Granny Cao beat Yanru as soon as she came up.

Dani Erni was terrified, and hurried forward to protect Yanru.

"Erni! You actually help this bitch?" Seeing her daughter protecting Yanru, Leng couldn't help being furious, rushed forward and slapped Erni twice.

Seeing this, Yingbao quickly shouted: "Uncle! Auntie! Come quickly!"

Aunt Jiang and Chun Niang heard the sound, pushed Leng's mother and daughter away, quickly pushed Yanru into the room, and closed the door to prevent Cao's mother and daughter from approaching her.

"What are you doing?" Chunniang was very angry.

This Leng family is really too much, Jiang Erlang has already married a wife, and she has also married and had a child, so I don't know why he is making trouble again.

"Third siblings, woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... You also protect that bastard like this?" Leng cried while covering her face.

Chun Niang said coldly: "I'm not your younger brother or sister, don't mess around with your relatives."

This Leng family had two children with the pickle seller surnamed Zuo, so I don't know what to do here today.

"Chunniang, are you so heartless?" Leng cried, seeing that Chunniang was indifferent, she ran to Zhou again: "Sister-in-law, is mother-in-law at your house? I want to kowtow to her old man."

Zhou's goosebumps came up, and he quickly winked at Chun Niang, telling her to go find Jiang Sanlang and Jiang Erlang and come back.

Chunniang went out without saying a word, and met Jiang Erlang who hurried back halfway.

"You're finally back. I don't know why the Leng family is going crazy. It's probably not a good person." Chun Niang said.

"Understood, third brother and sister, you take the children back first, and I will take care of this matter."

Jiang Erlang stepped into the house, glanced at the few people standing in the yard, and asked coldly: "Do you want to sue for breaking into a private house?"

As soon as Mrs. Cao saw Jiang Erlang coming back, she rushed over immediately: "Erlang, it was my wife's fault in the past. You shouldn't have broken up your husband and wife. If you want to beat or scold me today, you can do whatever you want. Now that my girl knows it's wrong, you two are wrong." Make up."

Leng Shi wanted to pounce on Jiang Erlang, but he dodged away.

"Erlang, I was really wrong, because we still have two children, let's make up, woo woo woo..."

Jiang Erlang ignored her cries, just picked up a broom and swept it over: "Get lost!"

Mrs. Cao's family was swept back again and again, and finally Jiang Erlang drove them to the gate of the courtyard, refusing to leave.

"Jiang Erlang! What are you looking like?" Leng's younger brother roared angrily, "I'm Erni and Huzi's uncle, how dare you push me away like this?"

"My Huzi Erni doesn't have an uncle. It was clearly written in the divorce letter back then, and your whole family has their fingerprints on it."

In order to get the 15 taels, Mrs. Cao's family said all kinds of unfeeling things, and now they are talking about uncles or not, which is simply ridiculous.

"So what if I put my fingerprints on it? Erni and Huzi are my sister's own flesh and blood from beginning to end." Leng Da roared resolutely.

Jiang Erlang sneered: "Your sister's own flesh and blood are selling pickles in the town, so don't make yourself uncomfortable with me."

Leng gave birth to two children for the pickle seller, a son and a daughter. The youngest son is only a few months old. I don't understand why she comes here again and again to find trouble.

"I don't care, you have to give us another 50 taels, no, 100 taels of silver. Otherwise, there will be no end." Leng Dalang clamored, finally stating the purpose of this trip.

"So it's extortion for money. What are you guys who dare to ask me for money? How about this? Sun Lizheng is about to come over, so let him make the decision."

At this time, Sun Li was leading the people from the county government to learn about the cotton planting situation with the three Jiang family brothers. Unexpectedly, someone told Jiang Erlang that the Leng family had come to the south slope to make trouble again, so Jiang Erlang hurried back.

When Mrs. Cao heard that Sun Li was coming, she couldn't help but twist her calf, turned to look at her son, and asked silently what to do.

Leng Dalang was dazzled by the Jiang family's new houses, and he ignored his wife's hints, "It's useless for him to come. I'm the uncle of Erni and Huzi. In the future, their marriages will have to go through Laozi." agree."

Rural uncles have a lot of power, and some are overbearing and unreasonable, and can even interfere in the marriage of nieces and nieces, so Leng Dalang would say this.

"Yo, your tone is not small." Sun Li was walking over with his hands behind his back, followed by several village officials and townspeople, and the crowd surrounded the two bearded middle-aged men.

Yingbao recognized at a glance that one of them was Mr. Liao, the former county magistrate's staff.

"What's going on?" Mr. Liao asked.

Jiang Erlang immediately talked about his entanglement with the Leng family.

"I have reconciled with Leng and signed a divorce agreement with each other. I paid the Leng family 15 taels of silver. Who knows that Leng has married and had a child, but he has come to my house again and again to pester me. Today, he still wants to blackmail me for 100 taels of silver." , if you don’t give it, you will ruin my children’s marriage.”

"If you say you want to break off the relationship, you will break off the relationship?" Leng Da was still clamoring, "My sister and I are not dead yet!"

Mr. Liao looked at Leng Da coldly, then turned to ask Sun Lizheng: "Sun Weng, do you have such troublesome people in your village? No one cares about the grandiose extortion?"

Sun Lizheng was questioned with sweat dripping down his brow, and he defended, "This is also the first time I have encountered such a thing."

As he spoke, he turned and told the servant: "Tie them all up and send them to the village hall to wait for trial."

Seven or eight townsmen rushed forward, overturned Mrs. Cao, her son, mother and son, three of them to the ground, and tied them up with the ropes they carried with them.

Leng and Mrs. Cao screamed in fright: "I am Jiang Erlang's relative, why are you kidnapping me?"

Xiang Ding didn't wait for Li to speak, tore off Leng Da's undershirt, tore it, stuffed it into the mouths of Leng's mother and daughter, and dragged them away so as not to disturb anyone from the county.
