After Yunniang left, the proprietress said to Li Mo: "In the future, you can accept any money she gives you. You don't have to refuse. She will only be generous if she really likes someone. It can be seen that she likes you. Treat each other sincerely."
Li Mo also likes Yunniang's character very much in her heart, and it can be seen that she is also a broad-minded, straightforward and sharp character, which is exactly what Li Mo likes.
The proprietress didn't know what she was thinking of, and sighed, "Don't look at her as bright, but she is also a hardy person. Her husband passed away early, and he didn't leave her a son and a half daughter. She only left a restaurant for her. She is a long-term lover. She sticks to this restaurant and is unwilling to remarry. Apart from wasting her mind on making a living in the restaurant, her only interest is in her face. Unfortunately, her face has never been good. "
The proprietress finished talking and thought about her coming today, she smiled, "She will try anything she hears that can make you beautiful, no, just now I heard about your skills, so I ran here."
Li Mo sighed inwardly, admiring Yunniang very much.
A woman propped up a restaurant by herself, but she didn't feel sorry for herself at all, but was hearty and generous, which shows that she has an open mind. Such a person is worthy of admiration.
Thinking of Yunniang's only pleasure is to turn her face upside down, Li Mo thought in her heart, she should think of ways to make her face better.
When I went back that night, Li Mo took out the fabric left over from making clothes at home. According to the appearance of modern masks, I turned on the lights and made an ancient version of the mask. Then, according to the hair bun of women in this era, I made a mask suitable for women. A hat that covers the hair and forehead.
This mask and hat can cut off oily fumes and stop the skin from deteriorating.
But to completely eliminate the acne on the face, relying on these alone is not enough, and we have to find another way.
In modern times, there are endless products aimed at removing acne, as long as you just wipe it on your face, but here, there is not even a deep cleansing facial cleanser. There is something.
Li Mo searched in her mind for natural methods to get rid of acne, after much deliberation, two things came to her mind.
The first is Aloe Vera.
Modern aloe vera gel has the effects of calming beauty, anti-inflammatory and sterilizing, cooling and detoxifying. The principle is that aloe vera has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. Aloe vera also has obvious effects on acne, and it also helps to expel toxins from the skin. Just wash and cut fresh aloe vera into sections, mash it into mud and apply it on the face for a quarter of an hour, and you will see the effect if you keep doing it.
The second is coptis.
Coptis chinensis is a well-known good thing for clearing away heat and detoxifying. When used on the face, it will naturally have a great effect on acne. Add Coptis chinensis powder to warm water to make a paste and apply it on the face, which also has a good effect on acne
You can tell Yunniang about these two methods tomorrow and let her try it.
The next day, Yunniang came to the shop before the appointed time, and saw Li Mo was busy making up a customer, she didn't bother her, she just sat by and watched quietly. After Li Mo finished her work, she said with a little embarrassment: "I'm so impatient, I can't help but want to see what good things you have made for me, my good sister, show them to me."
Li Mo smiled and opened the small cloth bag in her makeup box, took out the mask and hat inside and handed it to Yun Niang, "Sister Yun, this is the one."
Naturally, Yunniang had never seen such a thing before, she held the strap of the mask with her fingers, and looked at Li Mo suspiciously, "Sister, I haven't seen this thing before, how can it be used?"
Li Mo took the mask from Yunniang's hand, stood in front of her, buckled the straps at both ends of the mask behind her ears, adjusted the position of the mask, and covered it tightly from the eyes to the chin. A pair of eyes and forehead are left exposed.
Yunniang's eyes lit up, she looked left and right in the mirror, took a few deep breaths, and then exclaimed, "It's so convenient! It covers my face, and it doesn't look like a veil It dangles around, and you don’t have to worry about falling off.”
Yunniang touched the straps behind her ears again, and felt that this little thing was more useful, so she couldn't help asking: "Sister, what is it called?"
Li Mo replied: "This is called a mask, which means to cover the mouth."
Yunniang nodded and said happily: "Okay, this thing is good. It not only covers the mouth, but also covers the face, and it doesn't affect my breathing. It can also block the oily smoke when I cook."
After finishing speaking, Yunniang picked up another object in her hand and asked, "Then what is this? It looks like a hat?"
There is a big and long cloth cover on the back of the hat. The part of the cover is wide and looks like wiping the forehead, and there is a strap on the back. It looks like a hat, but it is not the same as the usual ones. It is strangely tight. .
Li Mo didn't answer, just took the hat directly, and put Yunniang's bun in the hat from the back, and then fixed the bottom part of the bun on the forehead, and tied it with a strap according to the size of the head. , cover the hair and forehead completely, and cook in the kitchen in the future, neither will the hair be dirty, but also cover the forehead, now there is really only one pair of eyes left outside.
In fact, there are also hats here. Many men wear hats, and many cooks also wear hats when cooking, but such hats are not suitable for women, because women's hair is complicated and they cannot wear such hats. A hat, so Yunniang has never worn a hat, and she can only cook with her hair and face exposed.
Yunniang didn't expect the hat to be like this, so she patted her thigh, "Why didn't I think of making a hat like this and wearing it while cooking? This way I don't have to smell oily hair every time."
Yun Niang looked at her with only one pair of eyes at the moment, thinking that she would not get her skin smudged in the kitchen in the future, maybe gradually the pimples on her face would disappear. Thinking of this, she happily took it out of her purse A string of copper coins was stuffed into Li Mo's hand, "Sister, I really don't know how to thank you, this money is considered as the fabric money for making this mask and hat for me, and you will definitely accept it."
Li Mo waved her hand while rejecting, "Sister Yun, this doesn't cost money, a few small pieces of fabric are not worth a few copper coins, if I want your money for this, who am I? Besides, the extra money you gave yesterday, You can make a lot of masks and hats.”
Seeing that Sister Yun still insisted on giving it, Li Mo had no choice but to say: "Sister Yun, I treat you as a friend. This is just a little bit of a friend's kindness. If you give money, you will deny me as a friend."
Sister Yun already had a good impression of Li Mo in her heart, seeing her saying this, she didn't give any more money, she just took Li Mo's hand and said, "Okay, okay, don't give money, I will keep your thoughts in my heart."
Seeing that she had stopped thinking about giving money, Li Mo continued: "Sister Yun, I also know some external methods for removing acne. Go back and try it. If you persist for a long time, the effect should be good."
Li Mo told Yun Niang how aloe vera and coptis can remove acne.
Yunniang had only used the plaster prepared by the doctor before, and she had never heard of the method Li Mo said, but she was willing to try any method that could cure her face.
Yunniang really appreciates Li Mo's kindness very much, even if it doesn't work, just thinking of all these ways for her is worthy of her thanks, but she will definitely not accept money from Li's sister, she can only wait for a suitable one in the future I will thank her again if I have the opportunity.
Li Mo didn't know what was going on in Yunniang's heart, she really didn't want to thank her, she just told her what she knew, she didn't know if it would be effective or not.
Just hope it works.
However, what makes people happy is that the method Li Mo provided really works for Yunniang.
A few days later, Yunniang came to Yueniang's shop excitedly, grabbed the proprietress and shouted, "Yueniang, look at my face!"
The proprietress saw at a glance that Yunniang had no makeup on her face today, and she had a plain face, and it was easy to find that the pimples on her face had faded a lot.
The proprietress couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, she took a closer look at her face, and found that the pimples on her face had become much smaller, and the color had also changed from dark to light, and the whole face was not as ugly as before.
"Yunniang, your face is really much better." The proprietress is really happy for her friend.
Yun Niang nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, you don't know that my pimples have disappeared a lot, and I wake up laughing from my dreams."
Yun Niang said, looking around in the store and said: "Where is Li Meizi? I have to thank her well."
"It's convenient for her to go, and she will be back later."
Hearing what the proprietress said, Yunniang sat down on the chair, saw the mirror on the table, and couldn't help taking the mirror to look at her face.
The proprietress smiled and asked: "You don't want to give money to thank others, do you? I don't think it's good to give money, and Li Meizi won't accept it. Instead, she will be unhappy."
The proprietress took a look, "Am I such a confused person? I have my own way of thanking you."
At this time, Li Mo came back, saw Yun Niang sitting there, and greeted with a smile, "Sister Yun, you are here." After speaking, Li Mo saw Yun Niang's face with sharp eyes, and said pleasantly, "Sister Yun, your face is so beautiful A lot."
Yun Niang took Li Mo's hand and nodded, "It's really good, thank you for your idea, I haven't put on makeup these days, and I wear the mask and hat you made in the kitchen, and I usually go out with the excuse of catching a cold Wearing a mask to speak, in addition to taking medicine to recuperate, and rubbing aloe vera paste and coptis paste twice a day, I didn't expect it to be much better."
Li Mo didn't dare to take all the credit for this, "Sister Yun, it's not all because of my method that your face is good, you haven't put on makeup these days, and you've been drinking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, and the combination of the two sides, your face Of course it’s much better, if you continue to persevere in the future, the acne will definitely disappear.”
Yun Niang: "That's because your method worked. I didn't know how many medicines I drank before but it didn't help. There is hope for such a long-term headache."
Li Mo still couldn't help telling her: "Sister Yun, don't put on makeup until your face is completely healed, otherwise it won't get better."
Yun Niang waved her hand, "Of course, of course, I won't be transformed in the future, I finally got better, I don't dare to spoil it anymore, I can still see my face now, just keep a plain face like this, at worst, I will be laughed at for a while Days, I don't care anymore."
Both Li Mo and the proprietress couldn't help laughing at Yunniang's words.
Yun Niang stopped laughing at this time, looked at Li Mo and said, "Sister, you have helped my sister a lot this time, I know you really helped me, and I won't take that money to ruin our friendship, but I'm fine too I can thank you, you also know that I run a restaurant, I have a business here, I think it is quite suitable for your family to do it, I wonder if you are interested."
Li Mo's heart moved, and she asked, "Sister Yun, please tell me."
Yun Niang immediately said: "It's like this. My restaurant burns a lot of firewood every day. Every morning, I go to the market to find those villagers who come to the town to sell firewood to buy firewood, but the villagers come to the town to sell firewood. At most, I can pick up one load at a time, which is not enough, I have to find several people to buy firewood at a time to burn it for a day."
"Before I made an appointment with a few villagers to send me firewood every day, but sometimes I couldn't see anyone at all, and I didn't know if it was given to another family. In the end, I had to go to the market to buy it, which I found troublesome. Very good. I heard that your family lives in the village, and your man has a car. I wonder if your family is willing to start this firewood business and send me firewood every day? Don’t worry, the price is the same as the price in the town. A load of firewood."
Yunniang also heard from the proprietress that she knew that Li Mo's family lives in Daoyuan Village, which is backed by a mountain, and that her man has leg problems, and now he makes a living by pulling a cart. The family life is not very good, because he needs to heal his leg. Come to town for makeup. She went to the market this morning to find villagers to buy firewood, but there were very few people who came to sell firewood today. She couldn't buy enough firewood from a few people, and she wished that someone would bring her all the firewood she needed every day. In a flash of inspiration, I thought of Li Molai.
Li Mo's family lives in the village, backed by mountains, it is very easy for the villagers to go up the mountain to collect firewood, and there is no cost except wasting energy. If this job is done by Li Mo's man, he can pull the firewood she needs every day in a donkey cart. , which can be regarded as earning a lot.
So today Yun Niang came not only to tell them the good news, but also to tell Li Mo about the business and ask her what she meant.
After listening to Yunniang's words, Li Mo's heart moved quickly, and she asked Yunniang, "Sister Yun, how much firewood do you need every day?"
Yun Niang stretched out five fingers, "I need at least five dans of firewood every day to be enough, if your family is in this business, you can send me once every two days, ten dans at a time, two more is the best. "
Li Mo thought in her heart that Song Dashan was busy in the afternoon except for delivering vegetables, and the rest of the afternoon was basically empty. It was also very convenient to go to the mountain to collect firewood, and there was no other cost except time and energy. This thing is theoretically possible to do. It's just that it's too tiring to hit five loads of firewood every day. It's estimated that one person can get five loads of firewood without rest in the afternoon. Song Dashan's legs can't be so tired now.
But if you cooperate with others, you can make money without being so tiring, and you can earn as much as you can.
Thinking of this, Li Mo stood up with a smile and saluted Yun Niang, "Sister Yun, thank you for giving this business to my family, Li Mo thanked you here."
Yunniang knew that Li Mo meant to agree to this business, she helped her up with a smile, "Thank you, anyway, I have to find someone to buy firewood, whoever earns this money is not earning, and your family will send it to me all at once. , I can save trouble."
Li Mo couldn't help but rejoice in her heart for her decision to come to the town for makeup. No matter where she is, she must have the support of her contacts. Today, she has tasted the benefits of contacts.
That night, Li Mo told Song Dashan about it after returning home.
Song Dashan was also very happy, "That's fine, I'll be at home in the afternoon, I can go up the mountain to cut firewood, and then give it to the restaurant the next afternoon, and pick you up from the town."
Li Mo pinched his face with a smile, and ordered: "You are not allowed to collect firewood by yourself. Is it so easy to cut five or six loads of firewood? You can probably finish it after working hard all afternoon alone. This will be exhausting, and your legs are absolutely incapable of doing so much tiring work now."
Song Dashan frowned, "Then what should I do? Are you looking for someone else to do it?"
Li Mo nodded, "That's what I plan to do. If you work in partnership with others, you will collect less firewood, but you will deliver the firewood, and then each person will pay half of the money. Although this way the money will be reduced by half, but you will not be tired .”
Song Dashan thought for a while, nodded, and then asked, "Who do you want to cooperate with?"
Li Mo stretched out her index finger and nodded his head, "What do you think?"
Song Dashan held Li Mo tightly in his arms, and asked in an affirmative tone, "Are you looking for cooperation with Uncle Zhao's family?"
Li Mo: "Of course, the Zhao family has helped us a lot, so it's a good deal for them to make money with them."
After dinner, it was still early, Li Mo and Song Dashan took Xiaobao to Zhao's house.
The Zhao family had just finished dinner, and the whole family was enjoying the coolness in the yard.
Seeing Li Mo coming in, Yang Lanhua quickly brought two small benches over for them to sit down.
"Li Mo, do you have something to do today?" Aunt Zhao asked.
Li Mo is very busy now, and usually doesn't drop by. Aunt Zhao hasn't seen her for a long time. Seeing her coming over tonight, she wondered if there was something wrong with her.
Li Mo smiled and nodded, "Auntie, I really have something to tell you."
Li Mo immediately talked about her plan to sell firewood together, and said after finishing, "I think it's not the busy season for farming, and your family has a lot of labor. Going to collect some firewood while you have nothing to do is better than going to the town to find work." It’s much easier to do and earn more.”
Both Aunt Zhao and Uncle Zhao were happy, "Li Mo, this is a great thing, collecting firewood is very easy, the boss and the second child can go to the mountain to work for an hour in the afternoon, and it will not delay other things at all. .”
The Zhao family brothers nodded, "Yes, this is easy."
Li Mo saw that Zhao's family was very happy, so she said: "Dashan will send firewood to the town every two days, and send 12 loads of firewood at a time. Dashan will go to collect firewood with you. You have a lot of family members, and you can collect more firewood. It’s a lot, but Dashan drives a car to the town, so the two of us pay half of the money, do you think it’s okay?”
Uncle Zhao nodded again and again, "Okay, why not, this business can't be done without Dashan's donkey cart, so we have nothing to choose, and we have to thank you for thinking about our family even though you have business."
Li Mo said sincerely: "Uncle Zhao, don't say that, your family didn't know how much you helped us before, and we remember your love in our hearts, so don't say thank you."
The Zhao family's hearts were warm. Although there was no intention of helping Song Dashan's family, but being remembered by others, it is good to think about them, so they can't be happy.
They agreed with the Zhao family to go to firewood tomorrow afternoon, and Li Mo and Song Dashan took Xiaobao back home.
The author has something to say: see you tomorrow
