Chapter 29: The Tentative Question

Panlan cried and said:

"We won't be able to wear the new clothes we said we were wearing. We can't use something in such a beautiful color. ”

"Who said that?"

Shang Ruonan comforted the third sister and said:

"The young lady whose name is something can be dressed. But we can use this handkerchief! When you said that when we sisters used handkerchiefs of different colors and flowers, wouldn't that be very beautiful? ”

That's right, think about it, when you can go, the big four will be the big four, and the fifth, sixth and seventh won't have to go. That's four colors, and four colors will come out.

Even if you can only use a handkerchief, it's better than not being able to use anything at all. Panlan's worries were resolved, but Ruonan didn't just want to go out and show the problem, because she wanted to know, when could she start doing it, and how long would it take to prepare for it?

Obviously, it is useless to discuss these issues with the third sister. After looking at Shang Dongliang, Shang Ruonan said:

"Dad, look, when will it be ready? Also, I would like to mention one thing. When we go out of that door, why does the doorman still have to take care of the east and west? She always has to ask this and that, and we have to take care of her in our own home? ”

"Don't talk like that!"

Mrs. Shang said.

"Mother Wu is your grandmother's reparation, and she is the old man in the family, so you should pay attention to talking."

Shang Ruonan didn't speak, because he asked this sentence after thinking and thinking. Although I know some things from Lily, I want to see the attitude of the two elders towards these old servants, so that I can act well in the future. Listen to Mrs. Shang. Shang Ruonan knew that Mrs. Shang was still very particular about some etiquette, at least, she respected Mrs. Shang very much.

Master Shang also frowned and said:

"I'll tell Mrs. Wu when I go back, Xiao Si can't go in and out, and Xiao Si has to adjust the color?"

Mrs. Shang just frowned. I didn't say anything more.

After returning to her yard, Panlan couldn't wait to tell her sisters about not being able to wear new clothes by herself, and everyone only sighed. Wanglan Road:

"Alas! This is indeed for this reason, if we wear it first, although we will be envied by others, we will leave some grievances. ”

Shang Ruonan took a look at his sister's clothes that had been cut, one on the left and one on the right, each of which looked so big. I can't tell where is the placket, where is the back, where is the collar, and which is the belt. One thing is clear, the biggest piece is definitely the skirt. Look at this one, so much cloth is used, if it is made into modern clothes, this can make at least three sets.

Shang Ruonan looked at each piece, and then asked every time he picked up a piece, where is this? How is this put together into clothes? How do you sew when you sew?

After asking carefully, the eldest sister happily explained them one by one, thinking that the fourth sister finally wanted to learn to make clothes. Because in the merchant, according to the old lady's requirements, a girl should be able to sew clothes at the age of seven, not to mention that you are asked to cut, but you must be able to use a needle. But the fourth sister will not be before or after the injury. It once distressed Mrs. Shang. Because I was afraid that the old lady would come back and find that this daughter would not know anything, she was over seven years old.

My sister taught me seriously, and by the way, I also talked about some stitching, how to tie knots, and how to hide threads, so that people couldn't see it. But Shang Ruonan's focus is not here, the focus is to think about how to dye this dress!

This is a dress cut with reference to Shang Panlan's figure, but I heard that the prefect lady is older than the second sister, and she is about the same as the eldest sister, so I think this dress is not suitable for her. Then the eldest sister has to cut another piece out.

The third sister likes bright bright colors, so how to make flowers for her?

Shang Ruonan thought about it, what he lacked now was the mold, but now he didn't have enough time, so he could only make some simple flowers. Later, some molds will come out. In this way, more and better printing and dyeing patterns can be made.

And after the sisters had eaten supper, they went back to their houses. There is nothing to entertain in this era, the big deal is to read a book, paint for a while, or embroider a flower or something, everyone went to bed early, only Shang Ruonan, with his two girls, was really busy in the house.

Shang Ruonan decided to deal with the biggest highlight first, which was the big skirt. Shang Ruonan folded the large skirt in half first, then folded it in half, and then folded it in half, folded it to the end, and folded it up to become a long strip of cloth that was stacked and placed, and when it was opened, it was like a folding fan.

Then put the two silk long bamboo strips that people have prepared, and clamp the long cloth strips tightly and diagonally, so that the two sides of the bamboo strips become two oblique triangles.

Shang Ruonan is going to dye the two triangles into two colors with different shades, so that they will turn from dark to light, and then ask my sister to pay attention to the folded seams when she wants to sew them, so that when she walks around, there will be a color that is faintly visible inside.

Shang Ruonan put the two colors of one strong and one light respectively in two basins, and then asked the two girls to gently lift the two ends, at night, and he was not afraid of others to see it, so he rolled up his sleeves and went to the dye to pinch it gently, hoping to color it evenly, this is not a handkerchief, it is a big work, and it has to be treated carefully.

After dyeing both colors separately. Set it aside and wait for the excess water to dry before removing the bamboo strips. And here, on the top of the blouse, she tied a few small bumps out on the two pieces of the front placket and the one on the back. I chose a light green and yellow one as a base color, but I dyed the same color as the dark part of the skirt on the small bump, and the finished product looked like a few small orange-red flowers.

On the sleeves, the background color is the same as that of the blouse, but the light color on the skirt is used as small flowers, and then the long strips of cloth that are ready to be used for the sides of the sleeves and the placket are folded according to a certain rule. Forming a regular lace, the color is used on the skirt.

When all the cloth was dyed and placed, the cloves and peonies kept sighing!

"Miss, it's beautiful! The third lady must be so beautiful in this dress! ”

"Miss, why don't you make yourself a dress like this! Looking at it this way, it really looks good! ”

"Silly girl, this hasn't been done yet. Such flowers are too simple, there is no good model, it can only be like this, tomorrow to see if the color is good after drying, let's hang it first. ”

The three masters and servants opened the places where they were tied up one by one, and dried out every piece of cloth. By this time, it was almost midnight. However, Shang Ruonan didn't want to sleep yet, because she wanted to draw a few things and make a few hollow models. In this way, it is conducive to the diversity of printed patterns and reproduction to do!
