Chapter 1032 The woman is the one who pleases herself
Women all love beauty, and no one can surpass ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad.
And all men like beauty, and there is no other way around ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.
After men began to control the tribe, women began to become vassals of men, and women had to use their own beauty to start to please those brave and strong men. This has nothing to do with moral etiquette, but it is simply an instinct to pursue a better life. Just like women in later generations desperately want to marry rich men, there is no moral depravity, because after society developed to an era of great material richness, money was the best criterion for measuring a man's class and status.
The only reason why you can't marry a wife is because of one word... poor, can't afford a house, can't afford a car, can't afford anything, can't afford a ghost, can't afford to buy you.
Even if a man who is old and ugly or a man whose moral collapse is worse than a pig or dog, he can marry a wife as long as he has money, and even a fairy-like wife.
This is the most realistic situation in human society.
The poor couple is sad about everything, and the poor are happy or not. Chen Xu doesn't know because he is not a poor man, and his wives are definitely the most beautiful group of women in the Qin Dynasty. Four... well, five wives and concubines Chunlan and Qiuju are each good at it.
Fan Caiying is the most beautiful and mature, as if it were a beautiful flower, and you can't help but want to pick and play with it at any time when you see it; Water is gentle and charming, but has a calm personality. You usually feel alone like an orchid in the valley, naturally with a peerless and independent temperament, and you will quickly feel peaceful when you get along with it; if you abandon your royal identity, Ying Shiman's beauty is not outstanding, but she has a gentle personality, especially her eyes that are almost able to speak, which naturally has an impulse to make people feel close; as for Meng Wan... well, this is a terrible
The color of the little luoli is a training game that combines interest and play. However, the little luoli has now developed a big luoli. Her beauty is unmatched in the Hou Mansion. She is light in sound and soft in body, and she is proficient in singing and dancing. She is a completely different seasoning product in Chen Xu's life. As for Fan Caiwei... Chen Xu felt that it was a surprise after a mistake. He did not like it very much before, but now he has been hugged by him. It is also a very special feeling to take time to eat a few bites to adjust his mood.
But whether it is Fan Caiying and Fan Caiwei, who feels that their status is low, Shui Qingrou, who has a calm personality, or the royal daughter Ying Shiman, and Meng Wan, who is smart and simple, they care about their makeup and dressing very much on weekdays. Even when they are sick and pregnant, they will clean themselves neatly every day, wear the most beautiful dress, and behave very carefully and moderately. Therefore, no matter when Chen Xu sees his wives, they will always look the most gentle and beautiful.
A scholar dies for his confidant, and a woman is tolerate him for his pleasing.
Several women all hope to show their most beautiful side to their husbands to win his favor.
This is also due to Chen Xu's status.
If Chen Xu was still a poor man from Xiaohe Village at the time and did not show any strangeness, I am afraid that this group of women would not even meet him.
When Jiang Chuyue, Wang Qingxiu and even Shui Qingrou first met Chen Xu, in their eyes, Chen Xu was like a piece of shit... Well, a piece of earth and rubbish, with almost no sense of existence.
This is reality.
But no matter how noble and beautiful a woman is, she will never think she is too beautiful.
What the four women are interested in is the fragrance of Yang Guifei, and even Shui Qingrou smiled at the concubine of the world. No one knows that it was the prodigal girl who came from lychees and forgot about it.
"Of course there are people with body fragrance, just like some people have body odor, but there are very few people like this. There is a legend that Yang Guifei has body fragrance because she often uses petals to soak in water to take a bath and drink flower tea!" Chen Xu said with a smile.
“Bath with petals!!”
"Drinking Flower Tea~"
Almost at the same time, the eyes of several women shone with surprise in their beautiful eyes.
"Yes, legend has it that Yang Yuhuan not only bathes with petals to make a decent fragrance, but in addition to drinking flower tea every day, she also wears sachets on her body at any time." Chen Xu nodded.
"Husband, what is a sachet?" Ying Shiman asked anxiously.
"The so-called sachet is like a medicine sachet that we hang on the bedside to repel mosquitoes in summer. We use silk to make a sachet, put some fragrant flowers and plants inside to wear them together, so that the fragrance in the sachet can slowly be emitted, and there is a fragrant wind to walk along. There is a poem in the book of heaven: the east wind blooms thousands of flowers and trees at night. The stars are like rain, and the fragrance of BMW carries is everywhere; the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragon dances overnight. The moths are golden wisps of snow and willows, and the smiles are full of fragrance. I look for him for thousands of times, but when I look back, the man is in the dim light. This is a poem describing the situation of the New Year night. Women wear sachets on their bodies, so there is a faint fragrance on their walk..."
"It turns out that my husband is talking about the veil. This thing has been available for a long time. Qu Zili Sao said: Hu Jiangli and Pi Zhixi, Ren Qiulan thought it was a veil. I heard that Chu Yue and other places in the south have the habit of wearing vanilla sacks, which can drive away mosquitoes, but the Central Plains is not very popular!" Shui Qingrou nodded gently.
Chen Xu could only admire the knowledgeable and talented Shui Qingrou, but he thought about it carefully that he had been to the south and Wuyue areas, and seemed to have not seen anyone wearing sachets. It was probably because of one word... poor.
Because sachets are luxury goods, poor people can't afford to wear clothes, so they naturally have no time to do it. Therefore, those who have the ability and leisure to make and wear must be the aristocrats of Chu in the past. However, now the Qin Dynasty has already turned the nobles of the six countries into nothing, and the nobles have lost their former luxurious status and money, so they probably have no mood to make these boring things.
However, since sachets are not new, they will not be difficult for a group of women to make.
Now that autumn has entered the autumn season, all the flowers have withered, and roses and so on are almost impossible to see, but the chrysanthemums and osmanthus flowers are in full bloom. A few days ago, Chen Xu also asked someone to collect a lot of osmanthus flowers to make moon cakes and osmanthus cakes.
Osmanthus has been a very popular and precious tree since ancient times. It is homophonic with the word "pride", which means wealth and honor. Therefore, almost every household will plant a few trees in front of and behind the house. There are inside and outside the Qinghe Villa. Every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the yard is full of fragrance. In the past, the osmanthus was useless, just borrowing a fragrance. But now Chen Xu invented osmanthus mooncakes and osmanthus cakes, and osmanthus is also used. This year, the flowers on the several osmanthus trees in the yard have been almost pulled out by the servants, and the leaves have also been pulled out into pieces, looking extremely miserable.
Several wives suddenly became interested in making sachets to increase their fragrance, and they also wanted to become a woman with a body fragrance like Xi Shi, in order to seduce and attract their husbands.
As for the possible reason why Chen Xu's mischievousness in going to court led to the collapse of the Qin Dynasty, they chose to be collectively forgotten.
Moreover, Chen Xu was not the Emperor of Qin, nor were they Yang Guifei who harmed the country and the people. Even Shui Qingrou, who began to blame Meng Wan, was interested in participating in it.
The huge Qinghe Marquis Mansion is now full of goods in the warehouse. What do you want? A few wives want to make sachets. Chen Xu waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to send dozens of silk of various colors to ask for flowers. With a wave of his hand again, hundreds of servants suddenly came out like a blow-out nest, carrying vine frames, carrying baskets, and riding out on the door to search for various flowers.
Meng Wan, the youngest but most skillful, became the designer of the tips, while Shu Qingrou, who is good at painting, is responsible for drawing flowers and plants on the tips and auspicious patterns that indicate wealth and peace. Ying Shiman and Fan Caiying began to embroider flowers one by one under the guidance of the maid and embroiderer. Because of the story of a foolish monarch and a prodigal girl, the Qinghe Hou Mansion suddenly had another fun.
Seeing a group of big-bellied wives gathered together to make tips, Chen Xu went to the Secretariat with satisfaction and came back. It was already around You hour, and the mansion was filled with a strong fragrance of osmanthus, which was mixed with some slightly bitter and elegant chrysanthemums.
Chen Xu went to the backyard to take a look and found that there were more than ten baskets of osmanthus flowers, six or seven baskets of wild chrysanthemums, five or six baskets of fragrant wild grasses, and even some whole orchids that were blooming.
Looking at the various flowers and plants all over the ground, Chen Xu was so amused and crying.
It's just a few sachets, isn't this a little too big?
"Husband, come and see if the sachet I made looks good!" Chen Xu walked into the living room, and Meng Wan waved to him with an exquisite and small silk sachet.
The sachet is only the size of a palm, and the tailor is made into a half-moon shape. It is embroidered with the character cinnamon and some peony branches. It looks very delicate. The sachet is filled with fresh osmanthus flowers, which smells sweet and charming.
"Wan'er is really clever and skillful. This sachet looks good!" Chen Xu smiled and praised after looking through it.
"Hehe, thank you for your appreciation, my husband, I also made one for you..." Meng Wan picked up an almost identical sachet again and smiled and helped Chen Xu gently tie it to her belt.
Chen Xu:...
I am a big man who will be spit out if he wears a sachet?
But thinking about Meng Yun and other groups of playboys riding horses wearing Indian chiefs' crowns every day and walking around the city with pride, Chen Xu felt that according to the aesthetic concepts of the Qin people, perhaps in a few days, men wearing sachets may become a new trend.
"Husband, I have also made a sachet for you, and the orchids are placed inside!" Ying Shiman was not willing to fall behind, and gently helped Chen Xu hang a sachet with a graceful butterfly pattern embroidered on his waist with a palm-sized butterfly pattern.
"Marty, mine is vanilla-flavored!" Fan Caiying also smiled and asked his close maid Xiaoping to hang a one on Chen Xu's waist. A golden copper coin was embroidered with silk thread in the middle of the sachet, and there was also the word "rich" in the center of the copper coin.
"Husband, mine is a chrysanthemum sachet, I hope you like it!" Shui Qingrou finally walked up and gently tied a bamboo-shaped sachet to Chen Xu's belt. The unique sachet was embroidered with a small sword and a gossip pattern, which looked the most unique.
"Dad, and mine..." Xiao Chen Xi walked over with a wrinkled sachet in her hand, and Chen Xu helped tie it around her waist with laughter and cry.
Looking at the sachets that had been hanging most of the circles around his waist, Chen Xu almost cried.
"Puchi~~" Four women and a group of maids looked at Chen Xu's appearance, and their bodies trembled with their smiles one by one.
This string of sachets was tied to Chen Xu's waist, and it became a unique scenery in the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion. Chen Xu passed by was filled with the fragrance of Guilan chrysanthemum grass, which made the servants and slaves in the Marquis' Mansion hide in the dark, covering their mouths and laughing and giving advice, but Chen Xu didn't care at all.
My wife and daughter’s wishes naturally need careful care, and at least they have to wait until they go to bed before they can be relieved.
