At noon, the Dawn Courtyard was shrouded in a golden sun.

Minqi sat at the door of the room, quietly embroidering flowers, and looked up at the people in the study behind him from time to time.

Beside her, Hazelnut was seriously and skillfully hulling a bowl of red dates. From one bowl to another, the dates moved quickly.

In the study, Cheng Xin patiently practiced the words seriously for two days, but only copied the words to the original owner.

Hey, the ancients said: To practice words, you also need to practice your mind. With her eagerness for quick success, these two points are not bad.

She also recognized this reality, and she couldn't write a letter herself, so she found an excuse to ask Steward Qin to help send a letter to Jing'an Temple.

At this time, Qiaowen from far to near in the cloister came to Hazelnut's side and quipped: "Hazelnut, Aunt Gui is in a hurry, and said let me take a look, but don't let you steal the dates." ”

"Sister, I didn't steal it!" Hazelnut picked up the two bowls and ran towards the kitchen: "This is for the young lady to cook soup." How can I steal food? ”

"You run slower! In front of a snack. ”

"Don't worry, sister!" The sound of hazelnut trot was far away.

Qiao Wu entered and said, "Miss, the letter has been sent to it." Just ran into Qingcha, and he asked me to send a message to the little grandfather, saying that you should try on clothes. ”

"Trying on clothes?"

Cheng Xin raised his head, remembering that the original owner's spring clothes had already been made.

Isn't it for this palace banquet?

"It is said that it is the newly made clothes of Jinxianglou, let the young lady choose them herself."

"Okay, I'll go." Cheng Xin put down the pen and got up immediately.

Try on new clothes, no girl will refuse.

"Miss, I'll go with you." Minqi packed up the embroidered handkerchief in his arms.

Cheng Xin passed by her, took the handkerchief in the embroidery basket, and said with a smile: "Minqi, what are you embroidering?" A mouse? ”

"Miss, it's a squirrel. It's just that the tail hasn't been embroidered yet. Min Qi smiled, and was also a little embarrassed.

Qiao Wu on the side was amused by this sentence: "Miss, it's the first time that someone can't recognize what Minqi embroidered." Her female popularity is often praised even by Mama Zhou. ”

"Really?"

Cheng Xin carefully looked at the half of the rat's head on the handkerchief, it was really fine and smooth, and the embroidery was lifelike.

"What do you think about embroidering squirrels?"

Qiao Wu hurriedly replied: "It was embroidered for hazelnuts." She also plans to embroider a plum plant for plum dyeing. Congratulations on their new name. ”

"It's also a new lease on life." Cheng Xin said.

Minqi nodded: "What Miss said is true." ”

"Don't you say I didn't expect that Hazelnut eats like a squirrel. I'm supposed to name her Squirrel. ”

Qiao Wu waved her hand again and again: "How can there be a girl named a rat, Miss, I think the hazelnut is very good." ”

"Haha, don't worry, I'm joking with you."

The three of them laughed and came to the hall in the front yard, where a well-dressed woman was waiting.

Seeing Cheng Xinlai, the woman immediately bowed and saluted: "This is Miss Anguo Mansion?" It's really pretty and lively. Look at this watery face, it's really enviable. ”

"You are?" Cheng Xin asked.

The woman said: "The woman is the shopkeeper of Jinxiang Building, and today I am invited by the house to send some ready-to-wear clothes to the young lady for selection." ”

Shopkeeper Feng said and led Cheng Xin behind the screen on one side.

What catches my eye is a shelf of dazzling gorgeous clothes.

"Here are fifteen new ready-to-wear styles this month, young lady, you might as well take a look at them, and if you like them, you can stay. If you are still not satisfied, the woman will order someone to send it to you again. ”

All kinds of silk and satin, Cheng Xin saw from left to right, and only felt that the color of each piece was very good-looking.

"For the sake of the house, choose something refreshing and lively. Thinking that the young lady is a person who likes to be elegant, the folk women deliberately chose light colors. ”

Cheng Xin reached out and touched the material, which was very soft and smooth: "Shopkeeper Feng has a heart." ”

Shopkeeper Feng immediately smiled: "Miss, these are carefully selected by the people's women." I heard from the housekeeper that the young lady is white and beautiful, and I believe that no matter which one the young lady wears, it will be fresh and elegant. ”

Cheng Xin picked out a brocade robe with a water-blue lake pattern: "That's it." ”

"Yo, Miss's vision is so good. Then the young lady will try it now, if it is not suitable, the folk woman will change it for the young lady. ”

Cheng Xin nodded and entered the inner room.

Min Qi helped him quickly change his clothes, and when he was about to comb his hair, Cheng Xin stopped him.

"How troublesome it would be to change your hair when you change your clothes."

"Miss, it used to be like this. The same is true of the other ladies in the house. ”

"Then you lose the fun of picking out new clothes."

Cheng Xin walked out of the inner room.

On the chair behind Shopkeeper Feng, there were two more people at some point.

Qin Shu raised his eyes when he heard the footsteps, and saw Cheng Xin, who was dressed in water, walking quickly.

The skin is as white as fat, the black hair is waist-high, and the figure with this dress is good, especially the small waist looks like a hand.

He couldn't help frowning.

When Cheng Xin saw the little grandfather, he immediately stopped, changed his fast steps to small broken steps, and slowly approached and saluted.

"Little grandfather, you're here too."

Here, Shopkeeper Feng had already circled around her, full of praise.

"Yo, Miss is wearing this dress, she is really a fairy in the water, look at this figure, this posture, it is really beautiful."

"It just so happened that last month Jiangnan came to a set of Haihu gem heads, with this dress, Miss must be very good-looking." Minqi said with a smile.

Cheng Xin was also satisfied: "Then this set-"

Before the words fell, he coughed lightly: "Slightly frivolous." ”

Frivolous?

Cheng Xin bowed his head, where is frivolous!

"What the little grandfather means is not dignified enough." Qingcha hurriedly explained.

Shopkeeper Feng's smile stiffened, but fortunately, she had encountered a lot of this situation, and said at the moment: "Yes, yes, to participate in the palace banquet, the water color is light, Miss might as well pick something festive." Let the ladies in the palace feel happy when they see it. ”

The banquet of the prince of the East Palace, where are so many ladies present?

No, Cheng Xin knew that this was the kindness of the shopkeeper Feng, and nodded: "Then let's change it." ”

Shopkeeper Feng suddenly felt that the young lady of Anguo Mansion had a bad temperament as rumored to be.

Look, isn't that very easy to talk to?

Shopkeeper Feng said while helping to choose: "This time it is a banquet to celebrate the marriage between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although it is a private banquet, there are many people who can be invited. As soon as the news came out, there were countless officials and ladies who came to Jinxiang Building to buy the head of the business. But miss, don't worry, we only make one set of clothes in Jinxiang Building for the same style. No matter which set you change, it's all unique. ”

Hearing this, Cheng Xin suddenly became energetic.

"The young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but you also bought the clothes here?"

"Yes, the Prime Minister's Mansion is also a distinguished guest of our Jinxiang Building, and yesterday, it was also sent to the mansion by the women themselves."

Thinking of the taboos of these official ladies, Shopkeeper Feng hurriedly explained: "The ladies of the Prime Minister's Mansion like to be more flamboyant, and today's clothes are all brand new, and they are definitely not the ones left by the Miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Cheng Xin didn't care about any clothes, she asked, "Will the young ladies from the Prime Minister's Mansion go?" ”
