Chapter 77 - 77 One Step After Another
77 One Step After Another
She had already given advance to the carpenters to make the modes and porcelain tubes for lipsticks. She just needed the original materials to be put in.
When the work at the land was finished, she was going to get the bee wax and when the tubes and modes were completed, she could start her attempts to make those things.
Lipsticks were attractive to most women, even in the modern time. She firmly believed that after she managed to make the lipsticks here, she was going to get a constant stream of money for herself.
The blushers sold at the market were not at all convenient, and they dried easily. Moreover, the colors did not blend well. Lipsticks in tubes were always going to be more convenient and would have better quality.
Apart from lipsticks, she was going to extract oil for perfume as well. She had the superpower and she could be quite sensitive about the smell and tastes. So, the whole process should be smooth enough for her.
Well, she was a rural wife and she was not going to expose the plan to outsiders. She needed to make a good plan about it.
When the lipsticks business kicked off, she was going to plant mushrooms to make medical herbs.
She was going to take one step after another and not rush into anything.
Most importantly, she had to be in charge of everything!
Qiao Xuan turned down Shao Yunduan’s request to keep her company to find honeycombs in the mountains.
“Just study at home! It is not an easy matter to finish within a few days. Dad and Mom would blame me if you spend so much time with me. I have made so much effort just to please Mom… you know. Anyways, Qi and Taotao are fairly familiar with the mountains and with them around, I won’t miss a thing!”
Shao Yunduan could not counter her.
Since he had decided to be well prepared for the examination, he was going to earn a good rank and for that, he needed to work hard.
So, he should not spend so much time with her in the mountains every day.
“But can you just… not go into the mountains?”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “Only I know what to do about the honeycombs.”
Shao Yunduan said, “Where did you learn all of this?”
Qiao Xuan chuckled. “Maybe it is natural talent? I am interested in these and I pick up knowledge by reading!”
Her father’s biggest function was to serve as the shield for her. She could just claim that whatever she was good at, was learned from her father. Shao Yunduan would never be able to prove otherwise.
He was not going to do anything to prove that either.
But what she had not expected was that when Shao Yunduan heard what she said, he started to imagine a scene where he saw a skinny, poor girl who was left alone in the study and read lots of strange books.
Shao Yunduan could not rip her off from the hobby which she had been interested in since childhood.
He nodded hesitantly. “Just come back early, and don’t go too deep into the mountains. Qi knows the mountains well. You should always ask him for directions. Watch out for the ground, it is so hot nowadays and there are bugs everywhere…”
Qiao Xuan nodded with a smile.
Shao Yunduan was still not assured. He turned to Shao Xiaoqi and asked Shao Xiaoqi to take care of her.
Shao Xiaoqi said with a smile. “Don’t worry, Fifth Brother, I will definitely keep Fifth Sister-in-law safe and not lead her to the dangerous spots.”
Then, the three of them went into the mountains.
With the help of her superpower, Qiao Xuan soon found the honeycomb.
Then, she used the bee box to lead the bees to move in.
Due to Qiao Xuan’s superpower, the bees were very willing to get close to her. They were not afraid of her, and the work was completed much more easily than she had anticipated.
