Hearing this, Xiao Lingyue glanced at the maid in the mirror, a little funny: "I'm going to attend the palace banquet, not to compete with others. What's the point of not competing?"
The maid disagreed and said: "That's what I said, but I heard that there are many female dependents at this palace banquet. Even if the county master doesn't care, he shouldn't dress too casually, lest some dogs look down on others and look down on them.
The county lord."
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
She clicked her tongue inwardly, secretly thinking that it was really troublesome.
Glancing at the jewelry box on the dressing table, Xiao Lingyue took a ruby hairpin and inserted it into her hair. Then she picked up an eyebrow pencil, traced her eyebrows, and applied some lipstick.
Lipstick is bright red, made from flower juice plus honey and other substances. It is bright in color and sweet in taste.
Xiao Lingyue couldn't help but lick it.
The rich lipstick spreads out a bit and is applied to the lips, making the whole person look much better.
Xiao Lingyue picked up a handkerchief and wiped the grease on her fingertips. She looked up from the mirror and looked at the maids: "Is that okay?"
Several maids were stunned for a moment and couldn't help but nodded.
Xiao Lingyue just wanted to get up.
"County Master, wait a minute, there is something missing." A maid suddenly remembered something, rummaged through the jewelry box, picked out a delicate and petite gemstone, and placed it between her eyebrows.
The flower mother-of-pearl is exquisite, and the gemstone in the center is bright red in color, which matches the ruby hairpin on her head.
"By the way, there are also earrings." The maid rummaged through them again, found a pair of red pomegranate gemstone earrings of the same color, and put them on Xiao Lingyue carefully.
With just these few simple pieces of jewelry, the whole person's temperament looks different. The original plainness turns into a low-key dignity, with a kind of nobility revealed inadvertently.
"County Master, do you think it's suitable?" The maid looked at it again and again and added, "I think you can add two small gemstone hairpins on your head and a ruby bracelet on your hand, so that the whole set
Come down..."
The corner of Xiao Lingyue's mouth twitched and she interrupted: "That's enough, there's no need to add anything more."
She rarely wears jewelry because she feels restricted and inconvenient.
Because when she was in the Nanyan military camp in her previous life, she disguised herself as a man and had no chance to dress up. She had to march and practice martial arts in the morning and evening. Besides the necessary weapons, carrying anything else on her body was a burden.
Not to mention that when you are lurking or fighting, it is normal to be disgraced. It would be nice to have cold water to take a shower. Who cares about your image?
After more than ten years of living like this, Xiao Lingyue has long been used to it.
She always has weapons and necessary medicines on her, but she doesn't necessarily have the jewelry that girls like.
Although she no longer dresses in men's clothing in this life, the habit she developed in the army has been retained. Even now, Xiao Lingyue often does it. Too many jewelry on her body will only drag her down.
Action force.
Another person who has the same habit is Zhan Beihan.
There are few fragile accessories such as jade pendants on his body, and his clothes are mostly simple and neat, which makes his temperament look like a sword with a sharp edge, which is dangerous.
The maid saw that Xiao Lingyue was really unwilling, so she had to give up with regret.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Uncle Zhou asked outside the door: "Miss Shen, are you ready? It's almost time to set off."
Xiao Lingyue responded, picked up the veil on the dressing table and put it on, then walked over and opened the door: "Okay, let's go."
Uncle Zhou looked at her carefully and frowned slightly: "Why don't Miss Shen wear more jewelry? Don't you like the ones I sent you?"
Xiao Lingyue: "...I have worn enough." This chapter has been completed!
