Chapter 222: Other Identities
Don't want to go, but have to?
Tian Qingan understood what the two meant.
The position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is not low, but it is not high enough to go in person, so at this time, the juniors in the family come in handy, not only to give the other party, but also not to let themselves lower their status!
"By the way, why are you asking this?" Chu Shan was puzzled.
"I got an invitation!" Tian Qingan raised his head and said, "I will give the old lady a gift, and when the time comes, you will cooperate to set off the atmosphere." ”
"Gifts, what gifts, how to set off?" Yan Lang asked curiously.
"It's just to cooperate, I said who is going to try this, you quickly raised your hand and said you want to try, that's what you mean?"
"What exactly are you going to give the old lady as a gift?" Chu Shan asked.
"I can't tell you now, I'll know tomorrow, remember, cooperate well!" Tian Qingan didn't plan to look for these two people, but if he saw it, of course it would be better if he could.
"It's still mysterious!" Yan Lang said dissatisfiedly, "It's so troublesome to give a gift!" ”
Chu Shan also followed: "That is, you have to let us cooperate with the gift, it won't be a living thing, right?" ”
"What do you think, of course not...... Alright, that's all, let's go first, you can keep playing! ”
……
When I got home, my mother and father had just come back from outside, carrying a few bags in their hands, and when they saw the three of them, they hurriedly beckoned, "Come, come and see your clothes!" ”
There were four bags in total, all opened, two for women, and two for men.
Pushing the burden of men's clothes over, "You guys go and change, come and see later!" ”
Closing the door, the old lady took out her and Tian Qingan's clothes, as well as two sets of small ones, which were pea's.
"These three sets are yours."
Tian Qingan took the clothes, all of them were skirts, which made her a little awkward in recent months, who was used to wearing pants for the convenience of work, but she was really good-looking, although it was awkward, she liked it very much, and no woman could ignore beautiful clothes.
The skirt and the top cardigan and trousers are all thickened, with a thin layer of cotton inside, and then a matching cape, which is not so cold.
After trying all three sets, she was still a little awkward, but she was reluctant to take them off.
"Mother, how much does this dress cost?" Sitting down in new clothes, Tian Qingan patronized the stinky beauty, and forgot to ask, the fabric of this dress is not bad, and it will cost at least a hundred taels for three sets.
"Your three sets are not expensive, they add up to only three hundred taels!"
Three hundred taels is not a lot?
Forget that the old lady is a miner.
There was a knock on the door, she walked over and opened the door, and saw her father walking in with the village chief's uncle, Liang Zi, and Lantern Xiao.
All four of them bought two, both in robes and in a short fight for ease of movement.
Dad won't talk about it, he has a lot of clothes, but the three village chiefs and uncles have confirmed the saying that people rely on clothes, and they have changed into new clothes, and the temperament of the whole person has been improved, and they don't look like people in the village at all when they go out!
Wearing robes for the first time, the three of them were a little uncomfortable, especially when they were stared at by Tian Qingan, they didn't know how to walk!
"Not bad!" The old lady walked over and looked at the three of them, "I will make money in the future, buy myself a few more, this go out, people will not look down on you, how good is this, I don't know whose master and young master I think!" ”
A flush appeared on the faces of the three of them, and they were very embarrassed.
Uncle Village Chief asked: "How much is this clothes, we have money, we don't need you to pay!" ”
The old lady said indifferently: "It's okay, it's just a few sets of clothes, it's not worth a few dollars!" ”
"That's not going to work, we can't spend your money!"
"Okay, I'll just give you a New Year's gift, and I won't give a gift for the New Year!"
Uncle Village Chief wanted to say something, but he closed his mouth again after thinking about it.
"Tomorrow Liangzi and Lantern Festival, you two will wear this, and then we will walk in advance."
Liang Zi asked, "What about the sofa?" Want to hire a carriage sooner? ”
"No, just use an ox cart, or how will outsiders see it?" Tian Qingan shook his head and said, "When the time comes, Lantern Xiao and I will enter from the main gate and enter generously!" "Got watched by all the guests!
What an eye-catcher!
In the next time, the old lady gave a few people a special make-up lesson, for example, when is it more appropriate to go to this kind of birthday banquet, what gifts to give in addition to the sofa, how to salute when you see someone, how to answer questions from outsiders, how to find a way to go to the toilet, etc.
"Mother, how do you know so much?" Tian Qingan asked with admiration.
"This is common sense, I don't have to teach it specifically, Qingyu will know!" Harvest a disdainful white eye.
……
The next morning, Tian Qingan woke up early.
Wash and eat, change into the blue bottom, show off the clothes of gold thread, put on the fiery red cloak, and then wait.
Know that the waiting time will not be short...... Yesterday, an old lady said that the time of this birthday banquet is noon, as the day is in the sky, and now at most seven o'clock, there is at least more than three hours to wait.
Sure enough, it wasn't until half past ten that Chang Sheng, who often followed Wang Luocheng's side, came over.
"Let's go when you're ready!"
Tian Qingan hurriedly motioned for Liang Zi to catch up with the ox cart.
Chang Sheng, who saw this, was stunned for a while before he reacted, and hurriedly stopped, "You want to use an ox cart to pull it?" ”
He didn't see the sofa, but he knew...... Isn't it okay to use a carriage?
"Yes, otherwise how can you arouse everyone's ideas?" Tian Qingan asked rhetorically, "Believe me, it'll be fine, when others ask, you just say it's a gift, it's okay!" ”
After appeasing Chang Sheng, Tian Qingan commanded the ox cart to speed up.
Chang Sheng was very depressed, a bullock cart mixed in the carriage, even if the adults of their family didn't mind, but could the other nobles turn a blind eye?
Thinking of this, Chang Sheng couldn't help frowning, if it weren't for the sofa, their family would definitely become a joke in the whole capital tomorrow!
"What are you doing so far away, Uncle Chang, lead the way!" Out of the shop, walking and walking, I found that Chang Sheng was gone, and when I turned around, I was five zhang away.
Tian Qingan snorted lightly, isn't it just a shame to dislike the ox cart!
She understands!
Build momentum, do you understand the momentum, the momentum is not big, and there are not many eyes to attract, how can you make a name for yourself in the city?
Don't look at the oxcart soil, just wait until you see the sofa, and then we will be the leader of the trend in Beijing!
Chang Sheng sighed and followed, but it was also three feet away, giving passers-by a feeling of two groups of people...... I just don't know if adults will know about it
In this awkward state, they finally came to Qingyun Street, and saw many people at the intersection from a distance, and many carriages were waiting in line.
No, an old lady in the family of Lord Shangshu celebrates her birthday, why do so many people come back?
Tian Qingan turned around and beckoned to Chang Sheng, and when he arrived, he asked, "Why are there so many people?" In addition to the Book of Rites, what else does Lord Wang have? ”
