Chapter 845
Under the corridor, next to the blue and white porcelain jar full of water lilies, Erfu sat on a stone bench covered with soft cushions, very leisurely holding a hot tea, she has been living in Niu Hulu Lingzhu's house for five days, these five days, she is also completely familiar with here, the only thing that makes her feel inconvenient is that there is no small kitchen in the hibiscus garden, and the daily meals are taken by the maid from the big kitchen, and it is a shame that the weather is getting hotter and hotter now, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to eat hot meals.

"Gege, Da Gege has sent a letter home, do you want to go over and take a look. Shiqing, who had just returned from the big kitchen to get the snacks, said with a smile while taking the snacks out of the food box and placing them on the stone table.
Erf shook her head calmly, pinched the sweet and refreshing snack, and ate it in small bites.
She is not the daughter of Ilgen Jue Luo, not to mention that she has never even met with the legendary Da Gege, Da Gege sent a letter to the family, she still don't want to go over to join in the fun, otherwise it will inevitably be a little embarrassing, and if it is the letter from the big Gege that has something to do with her, when you go to Ilgen Jue Luo to say goodbye, Ilgen Jue Luo will definitely tell her, since sooner or later she should know, why should she go to the main courtyard with such a big sun!
She won't admit that she's just lazy, it's too hot.
"Let's take out all the mattresses in the room to dry in a while. Erf, who had nothing to do, pointed to the bamboo pole by the wall, and said a word to the little maid standing in a daze under the porch, and turned to walk to the flower pond.
In the three days when there was no book, no storyteller, and no close people who could talk about some common things, it was really boring to be in a daze with an empty room every day, and she had to find an entertainment project, otherwise she would be bored and crazy, so she decided to take advantage of this time to get some impatiens juice out to dye the nails of the girls and play, yes, play.
Impatiens are definitely a very common flower, but where there are female dependents at home, there will always be a few bushes to prepare, unless it is those poor people who run around for three meals a day all day long, such as Niu Hulu Lingzhu such a small official eunuch's family, it will be planted with impatiens in the corners and corners, and it will be raised in the greenhouse in winter, that is, it is ready for women to dye their nails, but now Erfu not only has to study and study the method of dyeing nails, she also plans to make experiments on dyeing hair, anyway, they are all flower juices, and there will be no allergies or anything, it is better to make this all-plant hair dye, and there is no big loss if you can't get itγ
"Don't be idle, hurry up and bring some water, these petals must be washed, otherwise the dust or something will affect the color of the flower juice." Erf instructed Shiqing to go to the room to fetch scissors and a small basket, and sat down next to the flower pond with the little Mazha and began to cut the flowers.
Dyeing nails with impatiens is definitely a test of patience, it takes two or three hours to color, and you also need to mix the colors carefully, after all, there are so many colors of impatiens, if you want to make a new color, you must use various colors of impatiens to mix, this process of blending, is the little toy that Erph wants to come out to pass the time.
After a while, Erff cut the impatiens flower pond.
All kinds of impatiens are more or less placed in the small basket, washed one by one, and removed the stamens in the room, and then put them in the newly prepared garlic mortar, add a little salt, and carefully pound out the flower juice, after all this is done, she with a strange smile, raised her hand to greet Shilan and Shiqing, who were helping to clean the petals next to her, and said softly: "Today, your family Gege will give you a good job, go and wash your hair, and these jobs will be left to the little girls to work." β
"Slave maid better wait until evening before washing. Shilan and Shiqing replied in unison, don't ask why, as long as you are not blind, seeing the strange smile on Erf's face, you will refuse such a strange request, God knows what tricks this somewhat strange Gege is going to make, and the two of them are thinking in their hearts at the same time, when did they offend this Gege.
Erfu looked at the petals that were draining next to him, shook his head seriously with a serious face, and said intimidatingly: "No, you have to wash it now, I still have to dye your nails, go quickly, otherwise I will ask the little girl to drag you to wash, and then your big girl's face will not be saved." β
So the slave and maid went first. With the thought of going to the execution ground, the two of them returned to the back room with frustration and helplessness to prepare to wash their hair.
"It's really an ancient man who didn't know what fashion was. Erph dried her hands and muttered.
She will definitely not have a disturbed conscience because she wants to take two big girls to do an experiment without guarantees, at most she has a feeling of being a little embarrassed, but this method of dyeing her hair with impatiens juice was discovered when she went to the post bar, and there shouldn't be too much of a problem, after all, netizens are disciplined.
Well, she doesn't really have much confidence either.
Of course, she will not be very irresponsible to dye the long hair of the two maids, and she will try it with a strand of hair, if it is easy to use and everyone else can accept it, she will dye the hair for others.
After a while, the pounded impatiens juice was roasted to dry the excess water.
Erph greeted the two little girls who were washing the petals, took the prepared small brush, and began her work as a nail technician, different from the backward nail dyeing methods that are finished by dyeing the color, she plans to do a flower nail art for the two little girls, that is, on the original background color, and then use white impatiens juice to make some small tricks, she thinks that with her artistic attainments, she should be able to make it beautiful.
The trembling hands and trembling movements were all stumbling through.
The plum blossoms lit up with white impatiens juice have been blurred, but fortunately, the original background color is very good, and there is a feeling of vague beauty, Erfu consciously satisfied with the leaves prepared next to him and wrapped them, carefully explained to the two little girls not to touch the water, and smiled to prepare her all-plant hair dye, these jobs, she could have handed over to other maids to do, but if the ancients could accept such a thing as hair dyeing, the recipe for this hair dye is a cornucopia, she has to be careful.
A plan that doesn't know if it will succeed yet, she has already thought about making money.
Thinking about it for herself, Elof was also drunk.
Shiqing and Shilan left for most of the hour, Erfu waited a little impatiently, and the two of them squirmed back to the upper room, they looked at the little girl who had been hiding next to them to watch the excitement, looked at each other with a wry smile, came to Erfu's side, and whispered with a little crying: "The slave is ready." β
"Okay, come over here and put on the smock I got earlier.
Now, I'll give you a new trick to see. Erfu happily put down the impatiens juice in her hand, beckoned to Shiqing and Shilan, who were full of anxiety, pointed to the dark overcoat stacked on the table, and said softly.
The impatiens juice used to dye the hair and the impatiens juice used to dye the nails are a little different when they are prepared, and they are mixed with crushed tea leaves and some honey to thicken, which should not be left for a long time, and need to be used and used, which is also the reason why Erfu is a little impatient.
She stepped forward, touched the hair of the two like a skilled hairdresser, nodded with satisfaction, and then picked up a small brush and a porcelain bowl with hair dye, and took the lead to Shilan's side, compared to Shilan's hair, Shilan's hair is more refreshing, and Shiqing's hair is still a little wet.
"I'll just use a few strands of hair from your sideburns, don't be afraid, if you don't get it right, you won't be able to see it when you comb it. Sensing the nervousness of the two, Erf smiled and soothed, and when the two nodded obediently, she took a small brush with hair dye hanging on it and brushed it on Shilan's hair.
Erfu was also very cautious, she did the same as she said, only at the end of a strand of hair on Shilan's sideburns, just a long piece, the hair dye was a little thin, she took a muslin that had been prepared a long time ago and wrapped it, then turned around and came to Shiqing's side, according to the action just now, again.
"Whew, okay, by the evening you'll be able to see the colors almost. Elder sat down at the round table as if she had completed some sophisticated experiment, and proudly persuaded the still apprehensive two, "You are too timid, think how beautiful it would be if your hair was as bright and colorful as nails." β
It's just that she didn't expect that as soon as she finished saying this, the two of them cried together.
The ancients were very particular about the body and the skin of the parents, only when the criminal was distributed, he would tattoo on the face, it can be seen how conservative it is, and now the two of them have good black hair by Erfu to make it a colorful color, if they don't still remember the matter of being a slave, they can eat Erf alive.
Just as Erf was thinking about how to comfort the two maids who were sad and flowing backwards, Ilgen felt that Roche's soft and calm voice came from the door, she didn't know what was going on, but she heard two girls crying, so she smiled and quipped, "Oh, what's the matter, this crying and crying is not like the style of our big maids." After saying that, she had already come to Erf's side and helped Erfu up to salute.
"Blessed mother. Erph bent her knees in a proper manner.
"You just obey the rules, didn't Eniang say that you don't pay attention to these false etiquette without outsiders!" Ilgen Jue Luo glanced at the tear-wiping duo beside him, although he was a little confused, he didn't ask more, turned his head and patted Erfu's little hand on the table, whispered a lesson, and said the look of the eldest daughter's letter, and then asked about the poetic duo.
Shiqing and Shilan both know the rules, how dare they sue the master, they can only look at me and I look at you aggrievedly, or Erfu smiled and relieved them, pointed to the strips of fine cloth wrapped around the ends of their hair, and told Ilgen Jue Luo what happened just now, and said coquettishly: "
I looked at a few gray hairs on Eniang's sideburns, thinking that this impatiens juice can dye nails, and it should also be able to dye hair, so I tried it on the hair of both of them first, and if it was easy to use, I would make Eniang's white hair. β
"It's a good thing that you have filial piety, but you can't mess around like this, and it's a shame that you still know how to be measured, if you really make both of their hair gray.
Alright, you two don't cry either.
It's just a strand of hair, so I guess it's just to please your family. Ilgen Jue Luo reached out and grabbed Lan Erfu's shoulder, said lightly, turned his head to look at the two who were still crying, and admonished softly, and waved his hand to send the two down to comb their hair.
The two of them were about to go out as if they had been amnestied, thinking that Gege had said that it would take two or three hours to completely color, and if they washed it now, there should be no problem, but they did not expect that as soon as they took a step, Erff stopped the two of them, and told them seriously: "Remember that strand of hair should not be wet, just wrap it in a muslin cloth and stuff it in it when you comb your hair, and let me see it tomorrow morning before washing it." β
Well, the last bit of luck is gone.
The two nodded helplessly, turned around and went back to the room to comb their hair, and handed the smock to the little maid to be cleaned up, and after everything was cleaned up, they returned to the upper room to serve, and saw Erf and Ilgen Jue Luo, sitting on the beauty couch by the window of the inner room, talking and laughing and dyeing their nails.
In fact, Ilgen Jue Luo's age is not too old, not as old as Erf's mother in modern times, but the dress has been closer to some thicker and darker colors, Erfu doesn't like this very much, she deliberately used a more bright purple impatiens juice to dye Ilgen Jue Luo's nails, like Ilgen Jue Luo's big women, will never come up with incongruous clothes and jewelry, so that Ilgen Jue Luo can dress younger.
She didn't tell Ilgen Jue Luo about her own caution, and seeing that Ilgen Jue Luo had a bitter and indescribable appearance, she smiled sheepishly and said: "E-Niang's hands are so white, no matter what color she paints, they are very good-looking, and the shape of her nails is good, and her fingertips are slender and round, so it would look better if you draw a white edge." β
"You've got honey on your mouth. Ilgen felt that Luo was young and did not deal with the deceased mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law in the backyard always used her not solemn enough to make excuses, so that she could set rules around her, she was also ruthless, she could not laugh without laughing, and often had a straight face, which made several children more afraid of her majesty, and she was not too close, let alone the time when Erf was coquettish with her like this, so she also enjoyed Erf's way of being close to her, but she still habitually taught a lesson, this is really to treat Erfu as her own child.
Erfu smiled disapprovingly, compared to her mother in modern times, Ilgen felt that Luo was really kind, if it was her mother, the slap would have been slapped on her body, she smiled and wrapped her nails for Ilgen Jue Luo, waved her hand and sent away the servants who were waiting in the room, hesitated for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "Eniang, I see that there is no woman next to Lord Ling Zhu's room, can you tell me how he did this?"
