Su Jinyao looked at the old clothes on her own (shēn) and felt that it was time to buy herself a better one. Although this dress was hand-sewn by her mother, Sophie wore it by herself and wore it again, and it was not so glamorous after washing a lot of water.

These are nothing, Su Jinyao does not dislike old clothes. It's just that she doesn't even have clothes to change into when she gets out of this (tào) dress. Every time I go home, I still wear Yao'er's old clothes, which are all patches on top of each other. This (tào) dress can only be washed and worn for the process.

What's more, when I returned to the Red Sleeves Workshop for a while, the Zhao Dadong family still came. If you want to talk about business with Zhao Dadong's family, you can't wear too shabby, and it's easy to be looked down upon. This business was calculated by Su Jinyao, and it was more developed than the sound of these small doors, so it was naturally not too much to pay a little attention to it.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Master, it's not closed here, is it?" ”

"No, no." The old master had already picked up the lantern, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Su Jinyao, and he still had an impression, and said with a smile: "Yo, it's you, girl." What do you want to buy today? If you still make bedding, it's too late. I'll open the door for another half an hour after I turn over the lamp, and then I'll close the door and go home." ”

Su Jinyao waved her hand and said, "Don't buy futon today, look at the ready-to-wear in your store." ”

"Yes, come in." The old master invited Su Jinyao into the shop and said, "Girl, take your time first, these women's clothes on your right hand are all small sizes, and the girl should be able to wear them." If you really like it a little bigger, it won't take much time for me to change it for you temporarily. I'll light the lantern and hang it out first. ”

Su Jinyao said: "Okay, master, you are busy first, and I will call you when I am optimistic." ”

The old master agreed, and was busy lighting the lantern.

Su Jinyao was short of time, and she didn't have time to choose carefully, so she took a look at the colors of these clothes first, picked the elegant colors and touched the materials, and if she thought it was suitable, she would take it out and look at the style. What is rare in this ready-to-wear shop is that there is also a bronze mirror, although it is not a large mirror that falls to the ground, but it is also more than two feet high, and it is a semi-mirror (shēn).

Su Jinyao took the two (tào) ready-to-wear clothes in the selected style to the bronze mirror, and compared them on the (shēn), and the size was really suitable. There is a (tào) placket that repairs a peony flower, which destroys the pure beauty. I made a comparison in front of the bronze mirror, but I really didn't like it, so I gave it up.

Su Jinyao compared another (tào) dress, a lotus pink jacket and a light purple pleated skirt, the style is simple, and the fabric is also good. Then he asked, "Master, how much is this (tào) dress?" ”

"Here, I'll take a look." The master also happened to hang up the lantern, put down the bamboo pole in his hand, and looked at the clothes in Su Jinyao's hand; "This (tào) dress was still made by me the year before last, and the fabric used to make the jacket was just like this, and it was cut a little tight, and the average girl's (shēn) was afraid that she would not be able to wear it. Girl, you (shēn) are good, you should be able to wear it. If you don't try it, if 上 (shēn) is suitable, I'll give you a cheaper price. ”

Su Jinyao compared (shēn) again, and she thought the style and color were suitable, so she nodded.

The old master pointed to a curtain inside, and said, "There is a small room behind the curtain, so you can try on clothes." When the girl enters, just hang the door hook. There are lights inside. Su Jinyao took the dress and came to the back of the curtain, there was a small door in the aisle, and when she pushed the door open, it was a small room, but there was also a chair. It should be specially prepared for guests to try on clothes.

Su Jinyao walked in and closed the door, hung up the door hook, and quickly changed out of her old clothes and put on new clothes. Not to mention, although the small jacket of Shang (shēn) looks thinner than other clothes, Su Jinyao wears it just right. And when she wears it like this, she has a slender willow waist, and she seems to be a lot taller.

The pleated skirt is not of any size, there is a strap around the waist, and there is not much difference between fat and thin when it is tightly tied. It's a little longer to put on, and it's just right to lift it up.

Su Jinyao was very satisfied, came out with the old clothes (tào), and asked the master: "Can I wear it, I want it, how much is it?" ”

The master first looked at Su Jinyao's appearance in this (tào) dress, and gave a thumbs up and said, "The girl is really good (shēn) duan, she looks so good in this way." It seems that this dress is not as good as the material, but a little thinner, and it is also shēn. However, you have to be a girl. The girl with a slightly thicker waist doesn't look so good in it. That's it, after all, this dress has been on the table for so long, and it's not new, I'll give the girl a cost price, and only charge the money for the material, and don't want the handmade money. As long as six and a half dollars of silver, do you think it will work? ”

Su Jinyao touched the fabric again, it was indeed a good material. According to the price she used to buy cloth, it was really a cost price. Su Jinyao hurried and handed him the old clothes and said, "Help me wrap the old clothes, I'll wear the new ones and leave." I'll get you the money now. ”

"Hey, okay." The old master took the old clothes in Su Jinyao's hand and was about to wrap them, then remembered and asked, "Girl, have you bought new clothes, don't you buy a new pair of shoes?" My wife's craftsmanship in collecting soles is very good, and the shoes she makes are durable and fit. ”

Su Jinyao looked down at the old shoes on her feet, and said with a smile: "Thanks to your reminder, otherwise I would have forgotten." Buy a pair, please find me this size. After speaking, Su Jinyao also raised her foot.

The master is right, this new shoe really fits well, the base is thick, and the fabric is good. Su Jinyao gave the money and took the old clothes, and then hurriedly went out and rushed all the way back to the Red Sleeves Workshop.

At this time, the red sleeve shop was already lit up, the front door was open, and there were also guests walking in one after another.

Su Jinyao still entered through the back door, and when she entered the courtyard, she heard the sister-in-law Lu in charge beckoning the helper in the back kitchen to hurry up. Su Jinyao came in and happened to let Sister-in-law Lu see it, so she said to Su Jinyao: "Miss Liu, you can be regarded as back." Qi Niang knows that you go through this door when you go in and out, so I should pay special attention to it, and let you hurry over when you come back. ”

"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law Lu." Su Jinyao knew that she was coming back late, and Qi Niang must be in a hurry. Or, just thinking that he couldn't handle such a big thing, he secretly ran away?

I thought it was funny, did I still run away from the battle with such a little thing (qíng)? But Su Jinyao still hurriedly ran upstairs.

Qi Niang's door was open, and Qi Niang stood at the door and shook her red hand and greeted the girls on the second floor loudly. Look at this for a while, and say that the rouge on the face is not well rubbed; After a while, I looked at that and said that the clothes and headdress did not match. The girls who were pointed out were running inside and out one by one, and they seemed to be busy for a while.

When Su Jinyao went upstairs, she almost called a reckless girl to bump into her, Su Jinyao hurriedly let the side (shēn) pass, and said hello to Qi Niang from afar: "Qi Niang, I'm back." ”

"Yo, my good girl, you're back. It's all this time, and you're still out there? You don't know how anxious I am. Just now I urged Qiu Ying to put on makeup, but she also said that you confessed when you left, so I asked you to come back to put on her makeup and choose clothes. This girl doesn't listen to me anymore, it's really a beating. ”

Qi Niang said this, but the table (qíng) didn't see how angry. It is estimated that she is usually like this, and when it comes to the opening of this red sleeve shop, she greets her inside and out, and she must not be idle.

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "Qi Niang, don't worry, it's me who came back late." I'm going to dress up Qiu Ying now, but don't worry, Qi Niang will dress her up beautifully. ”

Qi Niang shook her handkerchief again and said, "Go quickly, go quickly." Autumn Shadow's room is downstairs, you can find a girl to take you there. ”

Su Jinyao said yes and went downstairs, and just happened to meet Xiao Nan, Su Jinyao asked, "Xiao Nan, can you take me to Qiu Ying's room?" ”

"Okay, Sister Liu, come with me." Xiao Nan agreed, and took Su Jinyao to the remote place on the first floor. There was a corridor out of the side door, and Xiao Nan pointed to a few rooms on the opposite side and said, "Sister Liu, the third room on the right is it." I still have a job, so I won't send you over. ”

Su Jinyao thanked and hurriedly ran over through the corridor. Before he could knock at the door, he heard the sound of the door, and Autumn Shadow poked his head out of the room and looked out.

"Autumn Shadow, hurry up, I'm back." Su Jinyao said and pushed Qiu Ying into the door.

Qiu Ying said with a smile: "I'm in a hurry, but it's because I'm nervous, and I want you to come back as soon as possible, Miss Liu, and be my backbone." I know Miss Liu, you won't just leave secretly. ”

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, what's so nervous." Do what I teach you to do and you're guaranteed to be an instant hit. I went outside to arrange someone to cheer you on, so you can rest assured. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she looked at Qiu Ying's room and asked, "Are the girls who are not popular all living in the side room on this floor?" ”

"Yes, now I am here, and there are three girls, all of whom have never received guests. The rest of the people who live here are all subordinates and girls. When will the three of us girls get through the end before we can move to the front house? After Qiu Ying finished speaking, she smiled slightly bitterly.

Su Jinyao also sighed secretly, Qiu Ying's so-called boiling out was just going to the front to pick up customers. I guess no one is really willing to do so.

Su Jinyao hurriedly diverted the topic and asked, "Where are the clothes?" Qi Niang should have prepared clothes for all of you. In fact, there was no need for Qiu Ying to say, Su Jinyao saw a box next to Xiao Mu (chuáng). The room is very simple, except for a small wooden (chuáng) is a table and a chair, and there is such a box, which should be used for clothes.

Qiu Ying really pointed to the box and said, "Qi Niang made a total of three (tào) good clothes for us, and they are all in the box." I don't know which one Miss Liu will choose for me. ”

"Okay, I'll see." Su Jinyao walked to the front of the box, opened the box, and took out all the three (tào) clothes inside.

Su Jinyao took out all the clothes in the autumn shadow box and placed them on the chuáng. I wanted to help her choose one (tào) immediately, but after thinking about it, I asked, "Qiu Ying, do you see which one (tào) you wear on stage today?" ”

Qiu Ying looked at the clothes on (chuáng), frowned, and said, "The red one is too showy, and the fighting oiran is not a fighting rooster, so it doesn't have to be so fancy, but it looks tacky." The white ones are too plain to stand on the stage without being conspicuous. What's more, I used Miss Liu to teach me the dance today, because I want to beat people with my hands, and it's not appropriate to dress so elegantly. In the end, this (tào) silver purple is left, but will this color look a little old-fashioned? ”

Su Jinyao nodded and said, "You are right, the characteristics of these three (tào) clothes have been said." The reason why I ask you this is also to test your eyes. After all, I have made you popular for a while today, and the future (rì) is very long, and you still need to pave a glamorous road for yourself. If you don't even have an eye for choosing clothes, I'm afraid you won't be popular for too long. ”

Qiu Ying listened, nodded slightly, and said, "I understand." Miss Ming and Miss Ziruo are the top brands of the Red Sleeves Fang, relying on not only their appearance and (shēn) section, the two of them have their own merits, and they have the insight to understand people, and Qi Niang is also impressed by them, not to mention those rich benefactors. ”

Su Jinyao said: "That's the truth. Autumn Shadow, you're smart, and you don't look like the daughter of the Orion family in the mountains at all. ”

"Miss Liu is also from the mountains, you are smarter and more capable than me." Qiu Ying said, looking at Su Jinyao's eyes with envy and admiration, "There are rumors in the Red Sleeves Workshop, saying that Miss Liu, you have only been here so many times and you have impressed Qi Niang, this ability is not available to everyone." He also said, Miss Liu, you will definitely achieve great success in the future, and there are several girls who want to befriend you in private. However, Miss Ming and Miss Ziruo are the top names, and when they get close to you, the other girls don't dare to step forward. so as not to disturb Miss Liu's state of mind. ”

Qiu Ying's words are very roundabout, in fact, the real reason should be that Miss Ming and Ziruo have some weight in this red sleeve shop, and they want to suppress the other girls, so as not to take their place by others. And although Su Jinyao is not a legend in the Red Sleeves Workshop, after all, she has made the right idea twice in a row, and she has praised Miss Ming and Miss Ziruo even higher. The two top girls must also be worried that Su Jinyao will praise others again.

Although Qi Niang said well, I hope that all the girls in the Red Sleeve Workshop are red cards, but the competition between the red card girls is more intense, of course, what can be suppressed secretly must be suppressed to the death, and will not give others any chance to climb up (shēn).

Of course, Su Jinyao understands these truths, but she doesn't care about them at all. First, she is not from the Red Sleeves Workshop, and secondly, Miss Ming and Ziruo are also considered to have some friendship (qíng) with her, so Su Jinyao does not do this kind of thankless work.

As for picking up the autumn shadow today, it is completely Qi Niang's meaning. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the Red Sleeve Fang will lose ugly at this Oiran Fighting Conference.

After thinking for a while, Su Jinyao immediately came back to her senses and said to Qiu Ying: "Your vision is okay, but it needs to be improved." In particular, don't be too limited in your thinking. You're talking about the advantages and disadvantages of these three (tào) clothes, but don't you want to think about the mix and match of these three (tào) clothes? Take out the advantages of each and learn from each other's strengths. ”

As soon as Su Jinyao reminded her, Qiu Ying was enlightened. Looking at the three (tào) clothes again, the white gauze skirt and the silver-purple jacket were taken out, and they were compared (shēn): "Does it look good to wear like this?" The silver-purple and bright eyes, the white solemnity, together with a domineering dance, can make the guests below pay attention. ”

"That's right, that's pretty much what I thought. But this silver-purple jacket is a little cumbersome. I'm going to tweak it a little bit to make sure you look good when you go on stage. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she took the blouse in Qiu Ying's hand, grabbed the collar and one sleeve, and pulled it vigorously.

I heard a "stab" sound, and the sleeve on the right side was ripped off by Su Jinyao.

"This ...... How do you wear this? Qiu Ying looked at the clothes that Su Jinyao had "separated" in her hands and sleeves, and her face was confused.

"That's it. What are you afraid of when you show one arm, but you look sassy and heroic. You've ever seen a man fight barearm, right? It can be seen as the kind of muscle (ròu) full of tension and beauty. Yours (shēn) is of good material, your arms are slender and well-proportioned, and although your skin is not particularly white, it is a healthy and beautiful wheat color, which is sure to attract attention. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she saw Qiu Ying's face red. Before he could change his clothes, he hugged his shoulders and shook his head: "But, it's shameful to show people your arms." ”

"What are you ashamed of? Don't forget, this is the Green House. What are some girls deliberately wearing revealing gauze skirts for? Isn't it just to win the public's attention? You're just showing an arm for the men to look at without a ròu. Much better than those dew (xiōng) lines, exposing the thighs. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she stuffed her clothes into Qiu Ying's hand and said, "Hurry up and put it on, I have to put on your makeup." You don't want Qi Niang to keep waiting, do you? Dou Oiran, I guess some girls can't go up if they want to. Those girls who can't climb up can't wait to jump on the stage naked. ”

"Don't say it, no. How can there be such a shameless girl. Although Autumn Shadow said this, she finally did not refuse again.

She should also understand in her heart that although Su Jinyao is exaggerating, such an opportunity is really rare. I'm afraid that I will retreat and refuse to go on stage, and there will really be other girls rushing to climb up. When the time comes, let alone a shirt with one sleeve missing, even if it is only a shoulder to go on stage, why not?

What's more, Qiu Ying understands that she has signed a contract and sold it to the Qinglou, and sooner or later she will have to pick up customers. If I squeak and drag it on, I'm afraid that I will really have to wait until the autumn to build the stage and sell myself at a low price.

Seeing that Qiu Ying no longer hesitated, Su Jinyao turned her back (shēn) and saw that there was a small makeup box in the box containing the clothes, so she took it out and fiddled with it to see what rouge was inside, and prepared to put makeup on Qiu Ying for a while.

Qiu Ying no longer twisted, and when she saw Su Jinyao turn (shēn) over, she took off her clothes and put on the clothes that Su Jinyao had improved for her.

"Alright." Autumn Shadow got dressed and said.
