Chapter 131: Clothing

Crying kids have candy to eat!

The third wife made a fuss like this, although in the end it was Wang Xi who helped them finish it, but Mrs. Tai made a decision, and Wang Xi and Chang Ke both went to participate in the flower viewing banquet in the palace.

Wang Xi made new clothes and jewelry here, and got busy.

Today I made an appointment with Yun Xiangrong to make clothes.

"Please come over now, Fourth Miss!" Wang Xi said, changed into homely clothes and went to see the tailor, "Miss Bo Liu is also looking for Yun Xiangrong to make clothes, at least we won't collide with Miss Bo Liu." ”

She also told Miss Wu Er and Lu Ling that she and Chang Ke would also go to the palace flower banquet, and everyone was very enthusiastic to tell her the clothes and accessories they were going to wear when they entered the palace.

Mama Wang smiled and left.

Bai Guo felt that Wang Xi was good enough to wear the clothes he brought from Shuzhong.

Wang Xi said: "Follow the customs. I'm not ready to be in the limelight, so don't be different. ”

Bai Guo promised and accompanied Wang Xi to Baoxia.

Yun Xiangrong sent three tailor masters, seven or eight mothers-in-law, and carried a lot of new-style materials.

Seeing Wang Xi come in, a group of people hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say flattering words.

Wang Xi waved his hand casually, drank tea and ate snacks, and waited for Chang Ke to come over before starting to choose clothes.

Chang Ke whispered to her: "My mother gave me two hundred taels of silver, saying that my father gave it to her. ”

In other words, even Master Chang San knew about this matter, and he was very supportive of his wife and daughter's actions.

Wang Xi's impression of Master Chang San is much better.

She and Chang Ke each chose four sets of clothes under the advice of Master Yun Xiangrong, one of which was to be worn when entering the palace, and the other three were to be replaced in case of any accidents.

When the master of Nayun Xiangrong saw it, he told them: "I heard that Miss Shi chose a set of goose-yellow four-persimmon pattern treasure bottle pattern Hangzhou silk gown, and also prepared a set of lake green plain embroidered pink folded branch flowers, a set of lilac woven gold water ripples, and a set of moon-white silver stripes; The third lady in the house chose a set of Hangzhou silk jackets with lake blue woven gold treasure patterns, a set of apricot embroidered treasure flowers, a set of green onion yellow rhombic patterns, and a set of primrose pigment embroidered eight treasure patterns.

It's yellow and green, and it seems like you want to use all the colors that are suitable for summer, but it's very messy. Unlike Wang Xi and Chang Ke's clothes, Wang Xi adapts to bright colors, so he mainly uses red, prepared rose red, and then orange red, concubine red and Qian red; Chang Ke adapts to the simplicity and elegance, so he mainly uses green, prepared lake green, and then green onion, water green and grass green.

Nayun Xiangrong's master also told her: "Miss Bo Liu is also suitable for more elegant colors, and she chooses moon white; Miss Wu Er likes brighter colors and chooses green onions. ”

Wang Xi saw that she talked a lot, and said with a smile: "It seems that the master is very attentive, there is nothing you don't know!" ”

The master was also a talker, and said with a smile: "Miss Bo Liu is not afraid to let you know what color she wears, so I don't have to hide it." ”

It seems to be looking at Miss Bo Liu's face!

It can be seen that Miss Bo Liu is not bad to her.

Wang Xi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Are Miss Shi and the third lady in our house also making clothes in your shop?" ”

"Where." The master smiled and said, "It's just that in addition to making clothes, our family also sells some materials from Jiangnan, and we can't help but have a lot of contact with our peers. ”

I guess I went to inquire about it!

However, if Yun wants to do business with such care, he will definitely be able to do a good job and become bigger.

Wang Xi looked at them with admiration and said, "What else does the master have any suggestions?" ”

The master didn't shirk it, and said with a smile: "Miss Shi and the third lady of your mansion are clothes made by several old ladies from the Needlework Bureau, and they are all commonly used styles in the palace. Unlike us, the styles and fabrics from Suzhou and Hangzhou, especially the summer clothes, the clothes made by our family are light and breathable, and dignified and generous. The queen and several ladies in the palace are all making clothes in our shop this time. ”

Wang Xi was a little surprised, thinking that Shi Zhu had lived in the capital for so many years, and the Shi family was also a well-known official eunuch in Beijing, so why didn't anyone remind Shi Zhu.

The master smiled: "Concubine Niangniang likes the craftsmanship of the Needlework Bureau. The sleeved jacket she wore at the 100-day banquet of the three princes was the craftsmanship of the Needlework Bureau.

"In the early years, the queen also liked the craftsmanship of the Needlework Bureau, but in the past few years, she has been influenced by Miss Bo Liu, and she has gradually liked our Yun Xiangrong's clothes."

That's why Yun Xiangrong attaches great importance to Miss Bo Liu.

Wang Xi's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Speaking of which, our family is also in the cloth business, and last time I knew about the Wu family from your family. I don't know who is in charge of your shop in Beijing now? When I'm free, I'll have to ask your shopkeeper for a cup of tea. Thank you to him for making our family and the Wu family do a few business. ”

The tailor can be sent by Yun Xiangrong to walk around the wealthy family, and he is also a clever man, so he hurriedly smiled and gave Wang Xi a blessing gift, and said, "Then I will thank you for our shopkeeper first." As soon as I went back, I told our shopkeeper to see when the eldest lady was free, and our shopkeeper came to say hello to you.

"Our family still has a batch of materials on the road, and it is a silk yarn that the Feng family in Huzhou helped weave, which is really as thin as cicada feathers, and it will not be hot to wear six or seven layers in summer. Originally, it was going to be sent to the palace to make court clothes for the queen's mother. However, this year, the queen's health has been good and bad, and most of this summer has passed, even if it is sent to the palace, it is estimated that it will not be able to be done this year, so it is better to send the ladies to wear and play at home. ”

Or it's the usual banquet to show off.

You must know that the Ministry of Internal Affairs does not know how many tributes from all over the country receive every year, and whether it can be held in front of the nobles or not, in addition to connections, it is also a little lucky.

Although Yun Xiangrong's luck with these silk yarns is a bit bad.

But if you dress these wealthy ladies to the banquet, you can also build momentum for Yun Xiangrong.

Wang Xi became more and more interested in Yun Xiangrong.

She noted down the tailor's favor, and everyone who came with her rewarded him heavily.

Everyone was naturally very happy, and recommended a few new-style purses and handkerchiefs to Wang Xi, and Wang Xi ordered them all.

After sending Yun Xiangrong's people away, she immediately sent someone to send a letter to the big shopkeeper and asked him to help check Yun Xiangrong.

Here, Chang Ke has been silent.

Wang Xi took her elbow and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Chang Ke shook his head and said, "It's nothing!" I'm just thinking about Shi Zhu, she was very popular when she was a child, why is she older now, but not as good as when she was a child. Everyone didn't tell her what clothes they were, and she was confused about the movements in the palace, this time she entered the palace to enjoy the flowers, nothing happened to her, right? ”

"What can happen?" Wang Xi didn't care, and said with a smile: "She originally played well with Princess Fuyang, even if she knew that the queen mother would wear Suzhou-Hangzhou style clothes, could she still give up the lady and the princess Fuyang and follow the queen's mother?" If she had anything to do badly, it was that she stood in the line of the lady too quickly. ”

If it were her, she would pretend to be an ignorant little girl, just play with Princess Fuyang, and then make what kind of clothes and wear what kind of jewelry she wears, no one can say what she is not, and she will not be labeled as a lady.

But if Shi Zhu wants to marry Concubine Shu's two sons, then it's a different matter.

But at this time, the prince is undecided, and marrying into the palace may not be a good thing.

However, it can't stand up to those who want to make a contribution to the dragon.

Wang Xi was thinking wildly, and Shi Zhu sent someone to inquire where Wang Xi and the others made the clothes, and how many clothes they made, what styles they were.

It's a pity that the people of the Wang family have always been tight-mouthed, and Liu Yinyuan uses all the people of the Wang family, and the grandmother around her has been asking around for a long time and has not inquired clearly, only knowing that she invited Yun Xiangrong's master to come over and make four sets of clothes, and the rest can no longer be asked.

Shi Zhu lost his temper and said, "What's the use of asking you people?" ”

The servants around her didn't dare to say anything, but they thought that Wang Xi was generous, because the people of Chunyin Garden and the people of Liuyin Garden were all stained when they got closer, but their young lady always lost her temper over these little things.

If their young lady can marry the royal family, she can overpower Miss Wang.

Chang Yan's complexion has not been very good, and when she saw this, she persuaded Shi Zhu: "Cousin doesn't have to lose her temper, even if she wears the same clothes, she may not sit together." ”

She will follow Shi Zhu at that time, Shi Zhu and Princess Fuyang are close, and they will definitely sit in a more conspicuous place.

Shi Zhu felt a little better in his heart.

On the day he entered the palace, Shi Zhu looked at Wang Xi, who was dressed like a summer flower, but he just felt that Wang Xi didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, and he was dressed like this when he entered the palace, but he was startled when he saw Chang Ke, who was wearing a lake-green gown and covered with a layer of water-green silk yarn.

She never knew that Chang Ke was actually more beautiful than Chang Yan when she was dressed up.

In the hearts of everyone in the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion, they have always felt that Chang Yan is better than Chang Ke.

At this time, Chang Ke Tingtingyu, who wore the face of Nanzhu, stood there, beautiful and beautiful, like a budding Hanlian, completely walked out of her sister's shadow, so that people can never forget it at a glance.

"This, this is our family!" Mrs. Tai rubbed her eyes and beckoned to Chang Ke, "Come, come, come, give me a closer look." ”

Chang Ke has been told by Wang Xi'er to hold his head high in the past few days, but he is still a little unaccustomed to walking in front of Mrs. Tai.

"It's really a female college eighteen changes!" Mrs. Tai sighed.

Shi Zhu couldn't help but glance at the second wife.

The second wife's face was a little pale.

The people of the Chang family are all good-looking, otherwise it would be impossible for the aunt and grandmother of the Chang family to marry into Jinling, and Wang Xi's mother would not be able to marry into the Wang family. Chang Yan has been dressed beautifully since she was a child, but Chang Ke has been silent since she was a child, and Chang Yan is of course more eye-catching than Chang Ke.

Now it's the other way around.

Everyone boasted about Chang Ke and forgot Chang Yan aside.

Chang Yan, who was dressed in a dignified and gorgeous palace embroidered gown, twisted her hands tightly together.

Wang Xi was very satisfied with this effect, she pulled Chang Ke with a smile, and teased in front of Mrs. Tai: "You have to thank me today, the fourth sister's dress today was picked out for her, this silk yarn, I have been looking for a long time to find it!" I asked the eldest lady of the Lu family to go to the play today, and you can't stop us then. ”

The banquet in the palace will also sing excerpts.
