Chapter 359: Appreciation
As soon as the news of the appreciation party to be held on the water side was released, it caused a shock in the capital.
If nothing else, it is because the status of the water side in the capital is now extraordinary.
People are proud to be able to wear a set of clothes on the water side, and on the water side, they directly become representatives of the upper class. If you don't have a piece of clothing of this brand, it is outdated and a sign of inaccessibility.
What's more, it is said that this appreciation meeting is also the first one held on the water side, and it is not the kind of small fight that can be compared. I heard that there will be a lot of strange things at the appreciation party, and there will be some fabrics that don't usually appear on the market.
In an era of low productivity, cloth is definitely a hard currency. You can eat a small amount of food, but you can't go without clothes anyway.
Poor people who can't afford to buy fabrics wear two clothes at home all year round.
And the family with a little bit of family background bought a loom and used the weaving cloth to exchange for money. Even a dilapidated loom as a dowry is a very face-saving thing.
Rich people don't care where the fabric comes from, they just have to enjoy it.
They care more about whether this thing is rare than being able to wear it, and whether it can represent their noble status.
is like Mrs. Mo's flower and bird skirt killing all sides in the social arena, I don't know how many people's eyes are red.
Who doesn't want to come out on top and be the brightest cub at the banquet. Therefore, when I heard that the appreciation party was going to be held, many people were moved by shame.
said that it was not rare, so I wouldn't buy it. But when a new model comes on the market, it's not like a bird flying over happily.
Mrs. Wang's appearance is a little sour, and her voice is very unpleasant. But no one told her this, and she thought she was beautiful. At this moment, as soon as the audience expressed the idea of wanting to participate in the appreciation meeting, they opened their mouths politely.
"If you want me to say, the dress on the water side is not a big deal. Who doesn't know that the best ingredients on the market are all Zhouji, and just one on the water side will coax you away? She rolled her eyes as she spoke, and said disdainfully: "I don't know where the brand came out, and it's still like a treasure." ”
When she spoke, the corner of her eye kept secretly looking at Mrs. Yang who was drinking tea and chatting with someone.
Mrs. Mo naturally won't come on this occasion, who doesn't know that the two of them don't deal with each other, and they can't fight each other when they are arranged together.
But Mrs. Yang was like she hadn't heard it behind her ears, and she chatted happily with the little sisters around her. Even her little sister took a few looks, but she herself remained unmoved.
It wasn't until Mrs. Wang turned around angrily that the little sister said, "Mrs. Wang is angry today, but you really have you." ”
Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "What is this, every time she satirizes Sister Chen, it is called an ugly one, I have long been used to hearing it." There's no need to worry about people like her, the more you deal with her, the more energetic she becomes. If you ignore her, she'll be angry. ”
"Hahaha, that's true. Look at the way she blushes with anger, not to mention how funny it is. What else do you say that on the water side is not as good as Zhou Ji? Ha, when who doesn't know what she's thinking. When 'Xiang' first opened, it proposed a system of senior members. She thought that someone would send her a membership card, but there was no news after waiting for her. ”
Mrs. Wang's incident has long been spread as a joke in the circle, and it can still arouse some approval when someone mentions it today.
Don't look at what kind of identity she is, should she really rush to slap her at the Zhao shopkeeper meeting? Later, when she opened on the water side, she also said that she wanted to give the other party some color to see. The result? I went with a high spirit, but I didn't even enter the door.
Later, Mrs. Mo got the first senior membership card, but Mrs. Wang was so angry that she directly said that she would never go shopping on the water side. even proposed that whoever went would be against her.
Everyone just listened to these words as a joke, and few people cared. Although Mrs. Wang's surname is Zhou, she is only a side branch of the Zhou family and cannot affect the family.
In the past few years, although I have had contacts with my family, they have all worked hard to save face. The Zhou family's industry in the capital has nothing to do with Mrs. Wang's semi-wool, and her hand really can't reach Zhou Ji.
"By the way, did the water side really hand you a post?"
Mrs. Yang nodded and said, "Last time, Sister Chen invited Mrs. Qin, the owner of Qin Ji, she is amiable and has a good conversation with everyone. I didn't expect her to give me a post, it was so unexpected when I received it. ”
"Alas, I didn't have enough money to buy, and it's too early to become a premium member."
"The post said that you can bring someone with you, and I'll take you with you when you're ready."
There are more people who want to go to the appreciation meeting, but there are only a few posts sent by Qin Xiang. The principle of her invitation is only, then it must be a senior member.
As for other statuses, they are for nothing in her place. I haven't consumed, and I talked to her about what ideals.
As for those who want empty gloves for the white wolf, waiting for her to pay tribute, don't you look at yourself for it?
Even the people in the palace have heard about the turmoil of the appreciation meeting.
Although Empress Jiang was in the harem, the news also entered her ears.
The green white fingers lightly tapped on the chessboard, and after a little thought, he looked at Mama Shen on the side, "What do you mean by this Qin clan?" ”
Mama Shen is an old man who has been with Empress Jiang, and she has been in the palace since she entered the palace. was still Aunt Shen back then, and in a blink of an eye, she became the frightened old grandmother of the little palace maids.
"The slave thinks it's all about business."
"If only that were the case." Empress Jiang frowned and said: "The palace also recently learned that she had entered the palace and asked for the identity of a county lord. Hongu suspects that she has a lot of plans. ”
After Mama Shen glanced at her in surprise, she also frowned and said, "The slave maid has never seen the Qin family, only that she is a beautiful woman. But Your Majesty is not beautiful, and he won't snatch his wife from his courtiers, right? ”
"Mama!" Empress Jiang glanced at her threateningly, "Only you and I can know these words, and you can't talk nonsense in the future." ”
Mama Shen slapped her mouth busily and said with annoyance: "It's all because the slave maid has no door to open her mouth, it's the slave maid who is not good." ”
Empress Jiang looked at her like this, and the fire that had just risen also dispersed.
In the entire palace, except for Mama Shen, who is willing to pay her sincerity.
"Your Majesty, he ......" Thinking of the emperor, Empress Jiang couldn't help but sneer.
Where is he not beautiful, but he doesn't want to be held by others, so as not to leave a bad record in the history books. She has been in the harem for many years, how can she not know where His Majesty likes to go. It's nothing more than those beautiful concubines who were born, just because they didn't give them a promotion or a reward, so outsiders didn't care.
Otherwise, how did you rise up as the two little sluts of the Jin family. It's not that he's used to being a fox, but his ability to hook up with people is first-class.
Mama Shen didn't say it, but Queen Jiang also had a scale in her heart. The Qin family is extremely beautiful, and there are few people in the entire harem who want to compare to her. I don't know how this kind of appearance has been peaceful in the countryside for many years, it's really strange.
If you want to say that Your Majesty is worried about the Qin family, Empress Jiang thinks that he will never dare. If the Qin family was just the wife of an ordinary official, His Majesty might have done it. But who made Qin's husband Han Yunxiao, the famous general Huwei, the future Duke of Yingguo.
Although His Majesty has not yet made a will, Empress Chiang also has her own way. Han Yunxiao was named the Duke of Yingguo, but it was only a matter of time. Perhaps His Majesty also wants to add icing on the cake and make a promise with the marriage of his children. It's just that you have to see if the identity of the other party matches it, otherwise it's not a marriage, but a feud.
Empress Jiang has never liked the daughter she gave birth to, and if it were possible, she would rather never give birth to her in her life. If she hadn't mediated with His Majesty for this evil seed in the first place, why would she put herself in this dilemma. It's ridiculous that this evil seed thinks that she is full of heart, although she can calculate for her, it is not empty in the end.
Your Majesty is really old, and he wants to talk to Han Yunxiao about this kind of in-law. The brain of the tenth princess really married into the Han family, and she was found out before she could make trouble. Besides, Han Yunxiao is not stupid, don't let go of a delicate wife who can make money, are you willing to ask you to be a stupid and incorrigible old girl?
Empress Jiang had a seizure and finally felt refreshed.
"Since it's an appreciation party, it must be very lively. It's a pity that the palace lives in this palace, but I don't have a chance to see the style. ”
Mama Shen immediately understood what Empress Jiang meant.
Another day later, news came out. said that even the queen was interested in the appreciation, but she didn't have a chance,
Even if Empress Jiang has a bad reputation among nobles, she is a queen after all, and her identity is still not so ordinary.
Therefore, the person who got the post secretly rejoiced. And if you don't get it, I'm afraid you can't wait to beat your chest.
Among them are ten princesses. As for which palace person she was so angry that she had and how many porcelain she had smashed, it was not for Qin Xiang to care.
The holding of the appreciation meeting is just an introduction, and it is intended to lead to the next event, the salon.
This fashionable event, which was once all the rage in the 19th century, brought together a group of like-minded people to discuss their favorite topics freely.
Brands also like to hold salons, which are as influential as a fashion show.
The so-called backer, Qin Xiang didn't want to rely on which backer to achieve what he wanted all his life. She has hands, and she relies only on herself.
Since she has the ability to bring these people together, why not take advantage of the situation to make this move first.
Gathering these noble ladies is only one of them, and although the wind is strong on the pillow, the influence of these noble ladies has not yet reached this point.
The Salon of the 19th century was filled with dramatists, poets, musicians, painters, critics, philosophers and politicians.
Qin Xiang has not had the opportunity to come into contact with these types of people yet, but it is a good breakthrough from these ladies and young ladies.
What is just a shop, what is just a clothing brand. The history of China is different from that of Europe, and some of the products that can become influential in Europe may not become the climate in China.
Qin Xiang took a deep breath and stood up: "Are all the orders ready?" ”
Xiaoyu hurriedly responded: "It's almost ready, it will definitely satisfy you." ”
