Chapter 203: Who is proposing?

The new year has begun, and the shops have opened. The most popular opening is still the ready-to-wear store. Custom-made clothes have become everyone's choice.

All shops are in normal business, but Shang Ruonan has reduced the opportunity to go out. Because of the matter of telling the eldest sister about kissing, the family clearly knew some of the outside world's discussions about Shang Ruonan.

Although Shang Ruonan's identity and status have not been changed, Mrs. Shang has talked to Shang Dongliang. So, the mother and son unified their thoughts, and didn't want Shang Ruonan to go out of the house more, and if there was anything, they would try to solve it in the house.

The matter of leaving the house was still handed over to Shang Dongliang. Shang Ruonan was a little unhappy in his heart, but when he thought of the matchmaker saying that in front of his mother that day, he thought that he couldn't really ruin the reputation of his sisters for his own selfishness.

Shang Ruonan had to endure a little. But there's so much more she can do. She can't go out, but it's not that outsiders can't come in.

Wu Qiongying has to go back to the business every day to communicate with Shang Ruonan. Because now you can receive a unique order or two every day.

For example, whoever wants to attend a banquet may come to the person in the neon dress shop to order a dress. Especially since the beginning of this year, Shang Ruonan has opened up a corner in this store to display customized clothes for children.

The merchant himself has Xiaobao, so every time Shang Ruonan conceives a piece of clothing for his younger brothers and sisters, he makes a sample to the shop, and then the order in the shop flies directly.

The original eight women who made clothes in the ready-to-wear shop have now become masters. One person with two or three novices. Fortunately, the yard behind the shop that Shang Ruonan bought was very large. A relatively large garment workshop, and it is an assembly line operation according to the requirements of Shang Ruonan.

This is also a new type of implementation in the whole dynasty. Now, with the addition of children's clothes, a children's clothing group has been formed.

Shang Ruonan is still planning to separate all men's and women's children's clothing, but now he can't go out by himself, so he can only let Wu Qiongying and Yang pay more attention to it and see if they can find another store to come out. Then open another shop.

This year, Shang Ruonan gave Shopkeeper Yang a new task, which was to collect every different fabric he could find. Each one gave Shang Ruonan a sample to see.

Therefore, Shopkeeper Yang took two people out of Baiyuan City on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. From time to time, I sent some goods back from all over the place, and among them, I found two kinds of fabrics that Shang Ruonan wanted, and fabrics packed in gauze. And it is also a relatively fine gauze cloth, and the mesh is still cotton.

The New Year's festival is said to be a Lantern Festival after the New Year! It is said that the Lantern Festival lanterns in Baiyuan City are still good, so this year, Shang Ruonan is preparing to go to see the Lantern Festival lanterns with his two sisters.

The Lantern Festival of the Daxing Dynasty can't help but follow the steps of the daughter's family. It is also the happiest day for everyone. Because on this day, you can go out on the street freely.

There is a place in Baiyuan City that looks like a park, and it is said that it was originally a back garden in the courtyard of a prince. Later, the prince had an accident and was masturbated by the emperor. This annex was confiscated. Some years and months of hands.

The house in front was bought by a wealthy family and made a house. And no one buys this big back garden, because if you buy it, you have to spend money to renovate it. There is a big lake here. You can also row on it.

Later, after Hu Zhifu took office. simply treat this backyard as a public place, and it just so happens that the Lantern Festival is held here on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year.

A year or two down. The walls of this garden have also been demolished, so that this garden is truly open to the public. And the neighboring merchants also used their brains, and a few days before the fifteenth, the private rooms upstairs of the surrounding teahouses and restaurants were booked early.

Merchants did not book this year. The first is that Shang Ruonan doesn't understand this, and the second is because of Ran's words, the old lady doesn't want their sisters to go out.

When Shang Dongliang thought of this after finishing some of Shang Lin's work, and went to book a private room for his daughters, they were all booked.

In previous years, I was able to book a better seat, but this year it was a step late. Then it could only be Shang Dongliang who personally took his daughters out for a walk and came back.

Fortunately, Panlan is not at home, and these daughters are not people who can complain. Everyone accepted it quietly.

Speaking of Panlan, the day before the Lantern Festival, Kou Ergongzi came to Baiyuan City again. came directly to the merchant and also met Shang Ruonan.

"Young master. I'm here today to help Miss San bring you a letter. This one is for you to bring alone. ”

Panlan wrote two letters, one for her father and one for Shang Ruonan.

Shang Ruonan took the letter, thanked Kou Ergongzi, and asked casually:

"The second son came to Baiyuan City for the holiday? Isn't the Lantern Festival in Beijing more lively? ”

Kou Ziyu smiled:

"I'm here to do my filial piety."

"Huh?"

Isn't the Kou family in the capital? Seeing Shang Ruonan's doubts, Kou Ziyu smiled and said:

"I was passed on to my eldest uncle, second uncle, and third uncle. I carry three rooms on my shoulders, and now my eldest aunt is still there, and she lives in Baiyuan Nunnery. Now I am the son of her name. Therefore, I will come here for the New Year and holidays. ”

Shang Ruonan doesn't know what it means to pick three rooms on the shoulder? But I understood the word adoptive. Think about it, my own family is also going to have a son.

Shang Ruonan said:

"Then you can only watch the lights in Baiyuan City. No, there seem to be a lot of people watching the lights this year, and our family has not booked a room. ”

This kind of thing is also like this in the capital. Although it is agreed that the woman will go out, the daughter of the aristocratic family will not squeeze with everyone, and she will meet her friends in a private room upstairs to look at the street lamp.

So Kou Ziyu was a little surprised when he heard that the merchant didn't book a room, and said:

"Where did people book so many rooms? Why can't you book at home? ”

Shang Ruonan sighed and said:

"People outside are talking about me, a girl who goes out and walks around, and talks about business. So, I have ruined the reputation of the merchants' daughters. My grandmother wouldn't let us go out, and when my dad remembered that he could go and make a reservation, it was too late. ”

Kou Ziyu frowned and said:

"What are you doing with those rumors? In less than two days, it will be someone else's business. ”

Shang Ruonan said:

"I don't want to pay attention to it, but it will affect the marriage of my sister and sister. A few days ago, someone came to propose marriage to my eldest sister, and when I said it, I thought that people were generous enough to forgive me for having a sister like me who showed up everywhere. My eldest sister was so angry that she scolded people on the spot! ”

"Propose? To your eldest sister! ”

As soon as I heard the news. Kou Ziyu was in a hurry. Road:

"What's going on? Who's going to propose? ”
