Several wives looked at Red Seven with blank eyes. (.advertisement)

Although the Hong family is not short of money now, who thinks that there is more money? Moreover, this generation is okay, the red family is only four rooms. But in the next generation, there are more than a dozen brothers in the Hong family, and they are still increasing, if it goes on like this, and then the next generation, twenty or thirty are estimated to be fine. At that time, the stall will be bigger.

Although it is a blessing to have many children and grandchildren, if there is not enough gain, then defeat is a matter of time. Especially the men of the Hong family are basically mediocre qualifications, and nothing is too outstanding.

Therefore, the women of the Hong family basically don't point to how much development men can have in their careers, and they can be talented, promoted, and petty officials, so that the family can have a scholarly reputation, and it is enough to maintain the "scholar" class.

As for power, the daughter of the family is excellent, married well, and can help, so that people dare not bully the red family.

However, the most fundamental thing is to take care of the family's industry, and more income is the cornerstone of maintaining the family's longevity. is rich, the men in the family are confident, the daughter who marries has a rich dowry, and it is easy to marry into a good family, which is valued by the husband's family.

When I first came to the capital, I saw that the prices in the capital were so high, which really worried several wives.

Fortunately, Hong Qi opened a wedding shop, and the business is very prosperous, and it is enough to deal with the current family of the Hong family, and if it goes on like this, even in Kyoto, it can be rich, and the wives are finally relieved. But for the sake of future generations, the family background of the Hong family is still too thin, compared to those wealthy families, it is simply ants to elephants, and dust to mountains, which is really far behind.

The old lady is a far-sighted person, and she has high expectations for the future of the Hong family.

The Hong family is not to get by for a while, but to be like those big families, it has to last for a hundred years, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years.

Therefore, the ambition of several wives to expand outward is very great, and they will not be satisfied and stop just because they have a wedding dress shop.

A vigorous and upward family, it is a good thing to have ambitions, otherwise, it is impossible to develop.

However, Hong Qi still shook his head and poured cold water on them.

"If you do it, you have to be specialized, the shop is too big, and our manpower and channels can't keep up. Moreover, doing business should also leave some way for others to survive, if we occupy too much of the ready-to-wear business, there are too many enemies of the tree, it is not necessarily a good thing. We now have too thin a background and too many enemies, so it will not do us any good. ”

Development is to develop, but you can't eat a fat person in one bite, too fast is not necessarily a good thing, or you have to do what you can.

A few wives listened to it, and after thinking about it, they also knew that what Hong Qi said made sense.

is only a piece of wedding dress, I don't know how many people have attracted redness, and there are also those who have stumbled secretly, but in the end, there is Runan Wangfu as a backer, and this piece, there is no embroidery village that has done it before, it is all done with it, and the red family is the first. There's nothing too much to do.

But the ready-to-wear piece is a big head for many embroidery villages and clothing shops, and when the time comes, their businesses have been robbed, and it is strange that they have to hate the red family to death. Behind every business in Kyoto, there is a shadow of a wealthy family. The Hong family can't cope with it by itself, and the signboard of the Runan Wangfu can't be beaten all the time, and the pressure is great, and they may not be able to bear it over there.

Several people agreed with Red Seven's point of view, but they still felt that it was a pity.

Hong Qi looked at their appearance, thought for a while, and said, "However, it's not like we can't do this at all. ”

The eyes of several ladies lit up, and they stared at Red Seven tightly.

Hong Qidao: "If you do it alone, with our current strength, it is very reluctant." But if you can find a backstage with a strong background and work together, it's okay. You can first inquire about where the biggest and best embroidery village and clothing workshop in the capital are behind the scenes, and then we will add up to see which one is more suitable and get in touch. They have background, manpower, and funds; We have a design, so although we can't eat a single portion, we may not earn so much, but it's good to enjoy the shade by leaning on the big tree, isn't it? ”

As soon as Hong Qi's words came out, several wives were overjoyed and praised as good.

However, the fourth wife was worried: "If you want to suppress the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods in Kyoto, then the other party's background must be strong enough, otherwise it will be useless to suppress it." However, if the background is too strong, and they have embroidery and other people, and when the time comes, they steal our design, cultivate people themselves, and have other thoughts, what if they want to kick us out and do it alone? ”

This possibility is not impossible.

Like now, many of the designs of the Red Seven Wedding Dress Shop have been stolen by many ready-to-wear people. After all, the red family is mainly style, although there are also a group of embroiderers with exquisite embroidery, but compared to the background, they still can't fight the other ones who have been doing it for many years. Many of the embroiderers in their embroidery villages and clothing workshops have been cultivated from generation to generation, and their craftsmanship is top-notch.

If they are given more time, learn the essence of Red Seven's design, and develop it independently, then the Red family will become completely redundant. There is no shortage of other people's backgrounds, manpower, funds, and designs, so what else do you need the Red family to do?

When the fourth wife said this, the other wives were also worried.

In particular, these days, it seems that there is also news from several famous century-old brands in Kyoto such as Jinyifang, saying that they are going to open a wedding dress shop or something, and I don't know if someone is spreading rumors or something, or if they really have this intention, which makes people feel a little uneasy.

I want to eat flatbread, but I am afraid of attracting jackals, tigers and leopards.

This is the current state of mind of several wives, very entangled.

Hong Qi smiled slightly and said, "If you are afraid of thorns, you won't be able to eat fish, and you can't do anything if you look ahead and backward." They want to steal the teacher, so let them steal it. I'd like to see, it's me and the descendants I've cultivated stronger? Or do they steal stronger from the division? Even if someone really catches up, it would be nice to surpass it. If you hold the mentality of gnawing at the old book and do not seek progress, no matter how much money you make, how many years can you be brilliant? ”

"If you don't even have this ambition, what can you say for a hundred years and a thousand years? Just lie down on the money you earned now, and get drunk and dream of death! ”

"I hope that our red family is not a delicate flower that can't withstand the wind and rain, but an eagle facing the wind!"

Hong Qi said these words very plainly, but the wives couldn't help but shake up, the worry in their eyes was gone, and the pride in their hearts was in vain.

Born in sorrow and died in peace!

Why didn't they think of such a simple truth?

The status of the Hong family to where it is today is not obtained lightly, it has experienced many sacrifices, crises, and a lot of hard work, and has been excluded and suppressed by others, and they have still come all the way to today.

In the future, even if the road is not smooth, what is there to fear?

As long as they keep working so hard and working hard, they don't believe that they will be inferior to others?

At this time, the haze that had been shrouded in their hearts all disappeared at this time, and they looked at Hong Qi's eyes with unparalleled trust-

As long as there is Red Seven, no matter how big the waves are, the boat of the Red Family will not capsize.

Even if it capsizes, Red Seven will be able to make the boat turn over again.

There's nothing to worry about, just keep following Red Seven.

When the red three came out, they happened to see the change in the expressions of several wives.

Hong San's heart was full of pride, and she knew that these were just trivial things for Hong Qi, and they were nothing.

Hongba was a little annoyed in his heart, these words sounded really good! Why hadn't she thought of it before? Otherwise, it will be able to be majestic.

The psychology of Hong Jiu is much more complicated, the ladies of the Hong family are all excellent, each has their own strengths, and they will not be inferior to others wherever they go. And Red Seven is the one who is so outstanding that people look up to among the many pearls of the Red family, and she is still her own sister. It's just that the relationship between them is not as good as her and Hongba's. Red Seven, between her and her, probably will never be like other sisters!

When Hong Qi saw that they were all coming out, he smiled and said to a few wives: "The ladies help palm the eyes, can you see it?" Is there anything that needs to be changed? There are still more than ten days, and there is enough time. ”

A few wives were so excited by Hong Qi's words that they didn't even notice that Hong San came out, and after listening to what Hong Qi said, they moved their eyes to the girls.

As soon as I saw it, I couldn't take my eyes off it.

Although the girls of the Hong family are all good-looking, all of them are top beauties, but they have no choice but to have Red Seven, they are used to seeing Red Seven every day, and when they look at anything else, they don't feel amazing.

But when I saw them this time, although they were not as beautiful as Hong Qi, they were not enough, and they were thrilling and not like people who should be in the world, but they were refreshing and bright.

In fact, the clothes that Hongqi made for them were limited in time, and they didn't have any commercial ideas, so they didn't need to be unconventional, so in terms of style, they were relatively conservative, and they didn't use some modern and bold elements too much, but basically used the elements and styles of this era, and only made some slight changes.

There is nothing to say about the style of the red three clothes, it is the standard style of this era, the inner skirt and the outer skirt.

The difference is that the red seven did not use embroidery, but used modern splicing, and the skirt below adopted the practice of splicing together the red clothing and the white clothing, with the cherry blossom petals scattered in the wind as the concept, and the white petals flew in the red background, which was integrated.

In fact, the method is just sewn on, which is much simpler than embroidery.

It's just that, in order to have that kind of petal flowing effect, it was Hong Qixian who drew the sketch, and they made it in a one-to-one ratio for winter snow and spring breeze, and the angle of each petal was different and lifelike.

This is also so troublesome in ancient times, if it is modern, it would be good to dye the cloth like this.

The fabric of this era does not have the equipment of modern dyeing cloth, and it has limitations, so it can only be solved by such a splicing method.

However, there are also advantages to this, that is, Hongqi uses different fabrics for the white petals and red bottom, and the effect is more layered, more vivid and natural.

The cut of the skirt also took some effort, and the hem was particularly large, and when I walked, the petals were flying, as if I could feel the wind blowing, fluttering like a fairy reads;.

The top of Red Eight's dress is a very bright yellow, like a flower. The skirt is pink, and a breath of early spring hits the face.

She used solid colors and no embroidery.

However, the style has changed the most among several people, not using the oblique placket commonly used in this era, but borrowing the European classical elements of the stand-up collar, princess sleeves, and puffy skirt, cute, lively and pretty with a bit of nobility and elegance.

Red Nine is the most low-key one.

Her top is light blue, her skirt is dark blue, and she uses partial embroidery, which is quiet and elegant, with a strong bookish atmosphere. The jacket is somewhat like a gown, but it is not open like a regular gown, but is connected by a coil in the middle, and the top reaches down to the calf, revealing the hem of the skirt worn inside. The skirt is embroidered with lotus flowers, which bloom quietly on the surface of the lake.

Needless to say, these three clothes are designed to be good-looking, and they are produced by Red Seven, where will there be anything bad. However, because of the relationship of time, in terms of beauty, it is not as good as those in the wedding dress.

However, these clothes fully show the unique beauty of the red three people, no, it is far more than that.

The warmth of the cold of the red three, the coldness of the warmth; Red Eight's youth is delicate and cute; Red Nine's elegance and quietness.

You don't need to speak, you just come to your face.

Their beauty is therefore as if it has come to life, and it is very moving.

For a while, several wives were speechless, and after a long time, the second wife sighed and said: "Seventh sister, until now, I know that only one piece of clothing that suits you can make a person change so much." After reading this, even I couldn't help but feel a little moved. ”

"That's it," the third wife took Hongba's hand, and she couldn't love it: "Ouch, seventh sister, when will I be able to design such a piece for the third aunt." After looking at this dress, I realized that what I used to wear was not called clothes at all. ”

Although the fourth wife is not as straightforward as the two wives, she is also extremely satisfied when she looks at Hong Jiu's eyes.

Originally, Hong Jiu was the youngest, and he was thinner, and his body had not grown much yet, and he always suffered a little bit when he stood with Hong San, who was only below Red Seven, and Hong Ba, who had a very well-developed figure.

Now this dress completely conceals Hong Jiu's defects, and fully reflects her gentle, quiet and fresh temperament, which is completely different from Hong San and Hong Ba.

is standing next to the best Hong San among several people, although it is not as beautiful as her appearance, but it will never be ignored, and there is another beauty that belongs to her.

Like Chunlan and Autumn Chrysanthemum, each is good at it.

The fourth lady looked at Hong Qi with gratitude in her eyes, she knew that Hong Qi's heart had a knot in her heart, or a big knot, but Hong Qi still bothered for Hong Jiu, and it was no less than Red San and Red Bafei's heart, otherwise, this dress would not be so suitable for Hong Jiu.

The eldest lady sighed, "I have nothing to say. With such clothes, a few of them have already won half of the first. ”

The second wife even explained to the red three: "Just like the eldest lady said, you have already won so much more than others at the beginning, and after you enter, you must not be careless and live up to the heart of the seventh sister." ”

Several wives are too satisfied, so are the red three, red eight, and red nine, just now they have already looked in the mirror inside, and they can't love each other. It's not that the previous clothes were not good, in terms of exquisite Cheng dù, these few pieces are really nothing compared to the previous ones, but wearing these clothes, it is more comfortable than the previous clothes, how to look comfortable, how to look good, how to look how suitable, very beautiful, now I feel twenty points.

They couldn't be more satisfied.

But I heard Hong Qidao: "The clothes are okay like this, but the hairstyle must also match the clothes, as well as makeup and jewelry, I want to teach you a few points of hairstyle and makeup that match this clothes, as well as jewelry, I have matched every set of clothes, and then you just have to let the girls put it on for you." ”

"Seventh sister, do you still comb your hair?"

Red Eight's eyes widened, and he looked at Red Seven in disbelief.

Although I know that Hongqi is talented, it is too ...... to get to this

"What, no, do you want to bet?"

Red Seven raised his eyebrows and smiled.

As a fashion designer, it's not just about making clothes, accessories, hairstyles, shoes, makeup, ...... These are the basics. Not every costume designer knows that much, but basically, there are some well-known costume designers who are quite proficient in this area. Not necessarily a hands-on master, but the vision and insight are absolutely extraordinary.

"Seventh sister, are you like this, do you still let other women have a way to live?"

Red Hachi sighed.

Nothing else, her natural foundation is not as good as others, and she admits it. She doesn't know how to design clothes, which she also admitted, after all, how many women can design clothes?

But this makeup, combing hair, and matching jewelry are all daily necessities for everyone.

In this regard, there are also lost people, which ......

Red Hachi really didn't want to admit it.

However, she just said casually, since Hong Qi spoke, it would definitely convince them, and Red Eight definitely didn't doubt this.

Because, Red Seven has always only surprised them, but has never disappointed them.

This time, it will certainly be no different.

Hong Jiu smiled: "If you bet, we'll add one too." It's better to block the two-color peach that just bloomed this year in the yard of the eighth sister, I've been greedy for a long time. ”

Hong San also pursed his lips and smiled: "I don't need a rare treasure like two-color peaches, just move dozens of pots of orchids from the eighth sister's yard to me, lest those girls say that my house is too plain and pure, so that the fragrance of those flowers will choke me to death." ”

"You, you two take advantage of the fire to rob, be careful of five thunderstorms in the sky!"

When Hongba heard this, she was so angry that she stretched out her hand and pointed at them and said, how much effort did it take her to achieve that two-color peach? And orchids, how many are there in her yard? Actually asked for dozens of pots in one breath, did you want her life? The days passed in the time when Hong Qi taught them a few hairstyles and makeup, and they couldn't bring the girls at home when they entered the palace, so they could only learn these by themselves. It's just that several people have never combed their own hair since they were children, and now that they learn it, they know that combing their hair is not an easy task, and several people have learned enough. Especially Hongba, her hairstyle is more complicated, but her talent in this area is really average. In the end, Hong San and Hong Jiu watched it on the side, and she was still tossing there. In the blink of an eye, it was time to enter the palace.
