Chapter 482: Tight Clothes
The most expected cloud master to come to Yiran Tower, every time he comes, he will not be empty-handed. There are always novelty, good-looking things for Fu Jin.
"Wow, Fujin, look, Master Yun is here, what is still in the fish and water, great!" The mustache cheered.
"Do you think you look like a lady? Babble. Mama Zheng reprimanded Mama, and she quickly closed her mouth.
Fu Jin said: "Mustache, bun, you go downstairs to pick it up." β
"Yes, slave and maid obey!"
Now the relationship between Wei'er and Yun'er and Shui'er is quite warm and cordial, and when they met, they gave Yun'er a blessing: "Master Yun is auspicious!" β
"No courtesy, no courtesy. Fu Jin did not rest? β
"No, no, you go up."
The beard and the bun took the tray in the fish's hand, eager to see what was covered under the flower cloth. But I didn't dare, that kind of expression was disrespectful to Yun'er.
"Sister, what good things have you sent?" Fu Jin said with a smile.
"Yun'er will greet Fujin first, Fujin is auspicious!"
"Okay, good, my sister always has so many courtesies. Sit down. β
"Yes, Yun'er, thank you." Yun'er lifted the flower cloth, and inside was a set of crimson tights embroidered with cut-out lace and trousers of the same fabric. The decoration is very beautiful, but there are no sequins and beads, because it will be awkward.
"Yikes! This little dress is so beautiful! Sister, this is what you made for Cher? β
"This is what Yun'er's two big disciples did for you. Wear it insideγIt plays a role in holding up the two pieces of meat on the chest and not fallingγ This kind of fabric is the stretch cloth in the pocket of Yun'er Hall, which is elastic. You look at this dress as if it's a little smaller, just spread it out, try it if you like? β
"Like! I love it so much. How did you get this lace and how did it still be semicircular? β
"If you like it, it's fine. There are many shapes of lace, Yun'er felt that this semicircle would not prick people, so she made it for you, and this one was made with a sewing machine. The edges are made with a trimming sewing machine. β
"Why are you so upright? It's good-looking. "Fu Jin likes to smile widely.
"These pieces of fabric are for all the grandmothers to make tights, including Mama Dong, Mama Jiang, and Mama Hong. Mama Wang and Mama Song gave it to Yun'er. β
"Thank you Master Yun for the reward!" Several grandmothers hurriedly gave Yun'er a gift.
"Guys, get up, I'll tell you how to make stretch cloth."
"My sister and a few grandmothers said stretch cloth, and my sister took this tights in and wore it?"
"You wear it, just try the size, if it's uncomfortable, take it back and change it."
"Sister, I'm really embarrassed, you sit down first, let Sister Zheng and them talk to you, and Sister Liu will come in with me."
Taking advantage of this meeting, Yun'er sent the fabric for making tights for everyone to Mama Zheng and others. I told them about the characteristics of the stretch cloth, and Fu Jin also wore it.
"Sister, you really have a heart. At the beginning, my sister looked at this little dress and thought that you made it for Xue'er, but later you said that it was a tight shirt for my sister, and my sister felt that she was afraid that she couldn't wear it, but it turned out to be just right, and it was too comfortable to wear. The two pieces of meat on the chest don't feel like they're falling. β
At this time, the prince entered the house, and everyone present gave the prince a salute. The prince said casually: "Everyone is exempt from courtesy." β
Bun Bun brought refreshments, and Fu Jin asked, "Are you done with the garden?" β
"Almost. I want to come back and rest for a while. What are you sending here? The prince asked Yun'er.
Fu Jin said with a smile: "My sister made a set of tights for her concubine, and it is very comfortable to wear. β
"What kind of stretch cloth is that made?"
"You know that, too?"
"Of course this king knows, Yun'er also made several things for this king."
Several of the grandmothers in the room were smiling and their faces were red. They are thinking crookedly: the prince is not a woman, what is he going to do. β
"What's the matter with you guys? Laugh and laugh, what are you doing holding back? β
Fu Jin couldn't help but smile and said, "The fabric that Sister Yun'er gave us is for tights, you are a man, what are you doing in tights?" β
"Hey, stretch cloth is allowed for you women to wear it, not for men? The men over there are dressed in stretch cloth and are stylish. If the body is strong and looks better, Ben Wang and Liangzi have a few pieces, some of which are made by Yun'er when he was practicing, and some of them are ready-made. It's just that one of them doesn't know what's going on, I just bought it back and wore it very well, and then the more I crossed the slack, it was very long. It was originally more than two feet long, but it became more than three feet and almost four feet. Yun'er was reluctant to throw it and said that she wore it, and she wore it as a baby like a big pocket. β
Seeing that all female compatriots like tight clothes, Yun'er plans to work on elastic cloth. Back to Feiyun Tower, let Shui Er pour out the elastic cloth pockets that Tian Liang and Nalan took down, and see how many elastic cloths there were, and there were more than three hundred. They are all about five feet in size, with a width of four feet and eight inches, and a piece of stretch cloth can make about four tight-fitting coats. Three hundred pieces of cloth is one thousand two hundred. There are 200 girls and grandmothers in the house, and they can't even use half of them. Then do a hundred pieces of trial sale first, and then do it when the market is optimistic.
In the Fujin room, the commander's wife came to visit the door. This is a pleasant person, very good at talking, although he is respectful to you, but also affectionate and very relatable. This aunt is a typical extroverted personality, she loves to talk and laugh, she seems to be very heartless, Fu Jin is afraid that she will be slandered when she speaks outside and does not pay attention to it, and she is afraid that she will be fluttering under the praise of others, and when she is happy, everything will be taken away. However, this aunt seems to be the kind of heartless person, if others want to trap her, but she can't do it, she is shrewd. The commander's wife was very good to Fujin, and in the years when Fujin lost her parents and her husband was far away on the battlefield, she forcibly took Fujin to her house, comforting her, eating and dressing well. This is a kindness she has for Fu Jin, and Fu Jin will never forget it. So when she mentioned that her dowry shop was in a recession, she didn't refuse to say no, in that case, Fujin couldn't say anything. And this aunt doesn't seem to have been slandered by anyone.
The last time the commander's wife came to the mansion and mentioned that her dowry shop was in a recession, not operating well, and facing closure. I want to ask Fu Jin if there is any way to bring the shop back to life, Fu Jin is not an expert in business, so I said to ask the manager of the house, he may know a little, this time he must have come to listen to the reply. Fujin is not a perfunctory aunt, she really asked her.
Tian Liang asked what kind of business the dowry shop of the wife of the commander of Fujin was, and Fujin said that there were several, one was a noodle shop, specializing in cakes and food, one was a spice shop, and then there was a grocery store. Although the Commander's Wife is not the kind of person who spends a lot of money, she is not a person who knows how to run a business. The shop was handed over to a few companions, and it was a big hawk, but now something is wrong. The shopkeeper of the spice shop was hired by the husband of the grandmother, and now the money is missing; The shopkeeper of the cake shop is the son of the grandmother who accompanies the house, so he will do three or five kinds, and later teach the apprentice to do it, so he doesn't care about it and faces bankruptcy. The grocery store is even more disorganized. The commander's wife is a face-loving woman and has a very charitable heart, so she is embarrassed to reprimand her mother, because she is her mother's former maid.
Tian Liang proposed a proposal to Fu Jin, saying, "You can discuss with the commander's wife and become a franchise store in the house." It's that we give her shop technology and management methods, and she gives us the franchise fee, and then she operates it independently, which is not considered a shop in our house. β
"This method is good, I'm afraid of interfering with our affairs."
"No, let's not say she's our franchise, and she doesn't say it."
In this way, Fu Jin told his aunt, and the commander's wife was overjoyed when she heard it: "There is such a good thing? Then settle down. Just tell me how much the shrimp fly fee is at the shrimp fly shop. β
"Shrimp fly shop? It's also a small bite shop, auntie, you're too funny. Fu Jin laughed and burst into tears. I don't know how much this shrimp fly fee is, you go to the backyard and ask Master Yun. β
"Don't price, don't price, because of my aunt's business, don't make trouble for Fang Fujin. Auntie is not in a hurry, next time I come back......"
"Why are you so careful? It's just to ask you, it's not that you're robbing anything, what are you afraid of? Sister Yun has been to a foreign land, these things know better than me, there will be no conflict between you and us, don't worry, or you can ask the result next time, she will definitely look for this information. β
"Is that okay? If you have the final say, you will help your aunt, and you will have to ask Fang Fujin, I am really afraid that you will have a conflict because of this. β
"You think too much, there is no contradiction between us, and we will not have a conflict because of this matter. The shrimp fly shop you said was a way for Sister Yun to see people doing business when they were traveling, and Xiu'er listened to what they said, but I don't know the details. Isn't it just asking? Won't offend her anything. You can rest assured that Xiu'er will take your business seriously. β
"Auntie knows, so if Auntie comes back in a few days, she will go back first."
"What are you doing? Come and sit like a dragonfly in the water, and then you have to leave for a while? The niece got a few exotic cooking recipes from Fang Fujin, and asked Master Xu in the small kitchen to try a few things, and I thought it was okay. You can be a master taster and taste what exotic food tastes like, okay? β
"Isn't that too much trouble?"
"Don't bother, niece I also have to eat, your house is not very far from your niece, and there is a car in the house, send you home." Or you can stay. β
"Can't stay, my aunt will spend the night outside, and your uncle will take a break from my aunt."
"You spent the night in Xiu'er's house, and he also rested? Unreasonable. Then I'll go back after dinner. Xiu'er also has a new dress for you to see. β
"Really? My aunt likes beautiful clothes the most. Is it a skirt or a cheongsam? β
"It's a little bit smaller. Go and get it, man. β
"Yo, it's so small, my aunt can't wear it, Jinqi is almost the same."
"You pull the fabric, it's okay, pull it left and right."
"This fabric is good, it's very tight, for my aunt?"
"If you wear it, it's yours." Fujin will also advertise.
"Then Auntie will try?" The Commander's Lady nodded to the maid who came with her, and entered the dressing room under the guidance of the maid. After a while, he came out happily: "It's comfortable, it's so comfortable, the piece of meat on my chest is also hanging high, and it won't fall." So, this beautiful little dress is my aunt's? What kind of material is this? It's cool and slippery on the body. β
"Wear it back if you like."
"What's the matter, don't pay for it."
"Isn't it just a straitjacket? This is what Sister Yun made for me in the backyard, saying that the piece of meat on our women's chest is going to fall when she is old, so she used this elastic cloth to make this tights for me. Little girls don't have to tighten it so tightly when they put it on, and they can use it no matter how old they are. β
"Yes, yes, we really don't have such a cloth in the Qing Dynasty."
"It doesn't matter if you don't, Xiu'er will give you a piece, go back and make another one according to what you are wearing, give Jinqi two pieces, change them, and distribute the rest yourself."
"This color is very delicate, suitable for young people to wear, so I made two more pieces for Aya'er, anyway, to wear inside. How did you get it, how did you put this on, and your breasts stood up a little bit? β
"It's lined with cotton."
"If the tights are introduced to the girlfriends of the aunt, they are looking for good food, good clothes and fun things. This thing can also protect the body, and such a thing will definitely sell well. β
"No, no, no, this thing can't be put out for sale, in that case, someone will impeach the prince, saying that he is immoral."
"Your concerns are justified. If you believe in the aunt, the aunt is active among women, you can rest assured, the aunt will not mention a word in your house, just say that the aunt did it herself, there is nothing wrong, right? β
This business, before Fu Jin could speak, someone helped to do it.
"Auntie, be careful, don't leave anyone with any tricks."
"Don't worry, the wives and wives of those high-ranking officials are not as serious as you think. They go around looking for novelties that others don't have, and they don't impeach anyone at every turn. Those who are impeached are offended or scapegoats, and they just want to enjoy themselves, and they don't want to find a shackle for themselves. The aunt will take this piece of fabric, and if there are many people who want to buy it, I will make more aunts to help you sell it. Didn't the emperor give his aunt a holy decree to help the prince? My aunt is rightly in business. β
And so, the diplomat's wife, happily took a large piece of pink stretch cloth and a sample of a leotard and went to her best friend.
