56. Shangyuan Night
The fire tree and silver flowers never sleep, and the jade pot turns into a fish and dragon dance. No matter which world the Shangyuan Festival is the same, it is the same lively. The palace banquet was also the largest and largest one. Today's Great Summer is happier than Chinese New Year's Eve, because it is the most free and enjoyable day. It is almost allowed to punish people without rules, without evidence, without going up and down, and not being angry today. In some areas, even among prisoners, it is possible to go out temporarily to watch the lanterns. This is not only a time for the upper and lower monarchs and ministers to exchange feelings, but also a good time for talented and beautiful sons to secretly pass money and receive money privately.
Almost everyone held their breath, wanting to show their charm and overwhelm others, even Mrs. Yuan, who has always been cold about boudoir affairs, is not exempt from vulgarity.
When it was time to make an appointment, the red-sleeved and green-clothed clothes began to groom Mrs. Yuan, and it was necessary to be perfect and not a little bad. The gold-carved hundred butterflies wear a flower red palace satin cover jacket, a treasure silk double luan skirt, and a colorful silk flower palace silk tied with Lianfu Lianshou roses. There was a gold seal hanging on the neck, and there were two strings of pearls, one large and one small, that were smooth and smooth. The head is combed high with a fairy bun, and in the middle is a red gold inlaid treasure five-tailed golden phoenix hanging bead hairpin, gorgeous and atmospheric, Mrs. Yuan looked directly at the mirror, and let the red sleeves hang a thin bead chain jade flower on her forehead. This makeup, which was originally too solemn and slightly stereotypical, suddenly became more charming and delicate.
Mrs. Yuan touched her fair cheeks with satisfaction, and then reached out to ask someone to put rings and bracelets on her. Before leaving, he added a big red scarlet fire flipped cape, which was graceful and luxurious.
"Where's Miss?"
"I'm still changing my clothes."
Mrs. Yuan sneered: "It's been longer than me." β
"Miss can't wear what she wants to wear, she doesn't like to wear what she wants to wear, and she's making a fuss. Just now, Juxiang sent fat powder to the past, and the peach was obedient, the ancestors, and coaxed it. β
Mrs. Yuan touched the mutton fat jade hibiscus bracelet on her wrist and couldn't help laughing: "Does she want to wear that Donald duck or Hello cat?" β
"Neither. She wanted to wear Tusky. β
The corners of Mrs. Yuan's mouth twitched: "Absolutely stop!" No matter how free and open it is, it is also said to outsiders, and in the eyes of those who care, this is an important occasion! She must dress solemnly. β
Shu Heng happened to stop wearing makeup and came over holding the hand of the orange, listened carefully outside the window, opened the curtain and said with a smile: "My mother is too worried, my daughter will not be so willful." β
Mrs. Yuan's eyes lit up when she looked at Shuheng, opened her mouth slightly, and said after a moment: "This isβ"
"This is what Heng'er called the master of the cloud cutting workshop to tailor, how about the flower skirt?"
"It's beautiful!" Mrs. Yuan seemed to have just come back to her senses, stepped forward, stretched out her hand to touch her skirt, and muttered, "It's really done." β
Shuheng immediately took a sip of incense on Mrs. Yuan's face: "It's a good mother." The mother gave double the salary to encourage enthusiasm, and also allocated a lot of funds for them to study, so for three months, several masters of the cloud cutting workshop squatted in the dyeing workshop, leather shop, and groped day and night between materials, and finally overcame the technical problems. This can be called hard work pays off, and look, isn't this a good thing to do? β
In fact, umbrella skirts were also popular at some point in ancient Chinese history, about the origin, Jurchen later spread to North Korea, and then to Beijing. But after all, Han culture is strong and classical, with strong inclusiveness and unparalleled assimilation power. So these looks are just a flash in the pan. Shu Heng remembers seeing some clay sculptures of the Yuan Dynasty in museums, with skirts as round as clocks, which shows that the skirts are not just European retro clothing. Also belonging to the feudal society, Shuheng is still a little confident in the current production technology. With a little stimulation, you can get it.
But to be honest, there is still a gap with what Shuheng wants, after all, she doesn't want a simple bell skirt umbrella skirt, this dress is quite different from the popular Italian children's flower skirt at that time in terms of dyeing and styling. But this start is already very good, Shuheng is still satisfied, take your time. The key is that she is really grateful to Mrs. Yuan, such a practical and debugging wastes a lot of manpower and material resources, and there may not be benefits, it is possible to make all the money, Mrs. Yuan actually supports her so much.
"What kind of material is this?" Mrs. Yuan stretched out her hand to pry open the first layer of yarn and the second layer of brocade, the innermost layer was hard, this feeling made her only frown, and her heart was fortunately as cold today, and she was wearing cotton clothes inside, if it was thin, wouldn't it make her skin red? Shuheng smiled: "This is cotton and linen." Because they are the easiest to make hard, after a lot of folding, and then wash it many times, it will be hard and can be held up. That's what makes the petals flamboyant. β
Mrs. Yuan looked at her daughter again and again, and the more she looked at it, the more she wanted to see it, but she couldn't help but sigh: "It's not practical in the end, you have to think about it again." β
Shu Heng smiled: "Just hold up the skirt, even the bowstring can be made, but that's not what I want." The road will be long in the future, so don't worry. β
Mrs. Yuan also smiled: "I use you to comfort me." Are we so anxious for money? We've got a few shops for you to play with, so you just have to have fun. As she spoke, she inserted a huge red jewel inlaid with pearls in the middle of her bun, and moved the small walnut-sized jade bird comb to the back of her head, and loosened her hair slightly: "This is more suitable." β
Shuheng smiled happily. She had just talked to Tangerine for a long time, and she didn't know how she was going to get her hair, but Mrs. Yuan immediately saw it. It can only be said that some women are naturally sensitive to beauty - or rather, mother-daughter bond. Mothers who are familiar with every toe of their child always know what it takes for her daughter to look good. Shu Heng suddenly felt that he really liked Mrs. Yuan so much.
The liquid pool is full of light, and the Guangze Hall is full of fragrance. The Vermilion Bird Pavilion is full of vermilion and purple, and the royal gardens are full of beauty.
The appearance of Shuheng rightfully attracted everyone's attention. The tender green neckline and epaulettes, the delicate new red dyed skirt, and the soft satin slowly flowed from top to bottom, but for some reason did not hang down the body, but strangely raised a clever arc, and the edge of the skirt did not hang down, but was slightly raised and rolled up, and it was not trimmed, but had a delicate arc, and the whole was like a shy rose, budding and ready to bloom.
After a long time, the crowd began to whisper, and from time to time, there were surprised or strange glances that fell on Shuheng. Shuheng was naturally not afraid to look at it, and she naturally took advantage of the palace banquet as a press conference for her new clothes.
"It's beautiful! Where is this dress made? β
"My little heart is like a walking flower."
"This style is so bright, when did it come about? Just came from the South? β
As soon as Shuheng sat down, a group of noble ladies and ladies came over to ask questions. The besieged Shuheng didn't know what question to answer or what to say first. It was still Mrs. Yuan who was able to hold the scene, laughing and talking, and even dealt with a lot of questions, blocking back some temptations with ulterior motives.
"The outer layer is cloud water yarn, and the makeup satin used inside is naturally a good material. Although the solid color is not embroidered, this dyeer is old and meticulous, and dozens of cylinders of fuel are wasted to produce such a vivid color. The confidence in Mrs. Yuan's smile was just right: "Tonggong is just such a girl, and it is not that the stars have to be picked up by climbing the ladder." Don't say that she wants to wear flowers, even if she wants to wear snowflakes, I will find a way to get them for her. β
Everyone laughed and sighed.
"The county lord is really a cute little look. Look at the eyes that are watery, as if the water is dripping with obsidian. β
Shuheng thanked him and replied: Madame praised it falsely. Don't talk much, and you don't lose your manners. It's not a bad thing for girls to talk less, and some ladies have always liked girls to be soft and steady, so the more they read Shuheng, the more they liked it, and they were full of praise.
Here, the stars of Yuan's mother and daughter holding the moon have already made some people jealous. The princess of Nan'an County was still smiling kindly on the surface, but the sourness in her eyes could not be hidden, and the county lord of Wenhe grabbed the corner of her skirt tightly, and suddenly turned around and went to the back of the pavilion.
The British public ordered the sharp eyes to notice it, and the corners of his mouth slanted into half a smile: "Look at that cloud screen, in the early years, he lost to Wei Wu, and now he is pulling his daughter to continue fighting, and he can really toss." Hmph, when she saw that her favorite Yuan Muyun married Wei Wu, she turned around and married a county king in an attempt to overpower her. Tsk, the results are still not comparable. People's lives are sweet and prosperous, she is blocked like a stove mouse, and the lines in the corners of her eyes can catch mosquitoes. β
Fu Guogong only raised his eyelids slightly, and then lowered his head to concentrate on studying the emerald green bracelet with gold wire twisted edge embedded in his finger. The British princess had heard of the solitary self-control of the Duchess of Fuguo, but she thought that the two women who were stuffed by the Queen Mother at the same time had a common topic, so Tete sat next to her. It seems that I also want to challenge myself to see if I can shake this iceberg.
"That Yanhong was beaten by me for twenty boards a while ago. Didn't hurt anyone. But it also ruthlessly ruined her majesty and shocked the group of little sluts. A hint of anger flashed between the British Decree's eyebrows.
The young Mrs. Fuguo glanced up at her, immediately lowered her eyes, and said in a low voice: "The Queen Mother said that she missed those three girls, let them enter the palace to have a look." β
"So what?" The British public order was a little surprised, and suddenly said: "Could it be that she can still sue the black?" β
Duchess Fuguo said slowly: "It's always no good to let her hate you." Her gaze silently moved to Shu Heng, looking at the girl who was carved in pink and jade like a fairy of flowers and plants, and her eyes were covered with a layer of sadness: she was also so windy and rainy at the beginning, sweet as if living in a honey jar-
Mrs. Yuan, who saw the hidden pink-faced and pungent of Chun Weiyi, suddenly thought of something, and exclaimed: "I remember, Mrs. Yuan is kind to the fox spirit in her house, and she specially asked the king hanging pot of Jishitang to treat her sick!" Everyone also said that this spicy thing has changed his temperament. She was wise enough to know that this woman could not deal with her, but she was to be gracious. β
The Duchess's gaze drifted back and fell on herβin that sight, the British Duke felt inexplicably despised.
The Duchess of Fuguo stood up gracefully, stroked her sleeve gently, and slowly shook it to the sideβso the British Duke was sure that she was despised.
"The beauty of uniforms is gorgeous, and the etiquette is called summer. Now the whole world celebrates, all the people are jubilant, in front of the saints, under His Majesty Dan, the fancy dress is simply unorthodox, and the palace ceremony is despised. The voice of the princess of Nan'an County was extremely harsh.
Mrs. Yuan frowned, and said in her heart, what is suddenly crazy in this cloud screen? The two of them were also considered to have dealt with each other, and they were able to get by when they got married later, but in the past two years, Duan Yunping's aura has become more and more wrong.
