82 Beauty and Ugliness
Ling Xiaoning may have to leave here at some point, and when he can enjoy it, he must enjoy it, otherwise he will have no chance in the future.
"Autumn leaves might as well be like this, you go and help me inquire which tailor shop has the best craftsmanship and where there is the best fabric, I want to customize a few gorgeous clothes."
"Yes, I'll inquire in a moment......"
Ling Xiaoning returned to the vicinity of the courtyard and asked Qiu Ye to take a look at the situation in the courtyard first.
His Royal Highness the Second Prince didn't come to visit today, I don't know if it was delayed because of something, or if his perseverance was worse than he imagined, and he had given up completely.
Ling Xiaoning then swaggered back to the courtyard, counted the things he bought, and then went back to the room to rest.
It's almost dark. Song Zhiqiu led someone to the room with a small wooden box.
"This is what I asked him to match you with some recipes that can beautify your face."
He opened the box, which contained several packets of Chinese medicine, as well as various large and small bottles and jars.
In addition to the two princesses, there are not many women with noble status in the palace, so there are usually no women who pay special attention to beauty and skin care.
Even some recipes that have been circulating for a long time have not been used for a while. He delayed for a few days, so that the doctors could hurry up and develop a new prescription, and found some people to do experiments, and made sure that there were no side effects before taking it.
Ling Xiaoning still had some complaints in his heart, let him take something, and after slowly seeing so many things, there was nothing to say.
"By the way, I'm planning to buy some good fabrics and make a few sets of high-end clothes, and if I want to come to the palace, I will definitely get a lot of good materials every year......
Ling Xiaoning also specialized in managing the distribution of materials in the harem in the palace, and knew that there were some good materials stored in the warehouse for a while.
"I understand, take a good look at it when I return to the palace, and if there is anything good, I will have someone send it to you as soon as possible."
Ling Xiaoning showed a satisfied smile and strode forward to reach out and grab Song Zhiqiu's arm.
"You're so good to me!"
"You just need to keep it in your heart, know that I am good to you, and don't easily accept other men's good to you. Did the second brother come out of the palace to visit you? ”
"Yes, but don't worry, I didn't promise to see him at all."
"That's fine, as long as you don't agree to meet him, let him gradually break this thought, and he won't get into any trouble."
……
Song Zhiqiu did what he said, and after returning to the palace to sort it out, he sent someone to send some high-quality materials on the second day.
In addition to some high-end silks that can be bought outside, there are also a few special materials.
Most of the high-grade silk workmanship is not bad, thin as a cicada's wing, bright color, and very good aeration. However, these special materials are a little different, and when they are made into fabrics, they also weave particularly delicate patterns, and the workers who make the finished products are by no means ordinary people.
"Although most of the materials are a little ordinary, you can make two very good clothes with these good materials. When the time comes, when I walk down the street in such a new dress, I will surely be the envy of all the noble ladies...... Haha, this is something he stole for me from the palace, and the others can't stand it. ”
Ling Xiaoning took out a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and planned to draw a few pictures well, so that the tailor could make a few sets of clothes with some characteristics according to his own mind.
After drawing a few pieces of paper, another idea occurred to her.
"Why do I have to wear so modest, I can also design some clothes with modern elements, only such clothes are the most special......"
She drew several modern outfits from her memory.
Ancient clothes were very exquisite. Especially the special waste of fabric, such as a skirt, the minimum material is three meters, a little more, even 12 meters.
Her few good pieces of fabric weren't enough to make a wide garment.
Ling Xiaoning drew a lot of design drawings after a day, and finally selected 6 drawings that he thought he was most satisfied with, and handed them to the tailor for them to produce as quickly as possible.
There are some differences between the fabrics seen by the tailor, probably it is rare to see such good materials, and it is even more unexpected after seeing the design drawings, and it should be the first time I have seen these strange designs.
"Girl, these fabrics of yours are really the upper class, and it will be too wasteful to make these strange costumes."
"What kind of fancy dress, do you know the aesthetics, just before we were the most popular style......"
"Okay, well, since the girl is generous with money, then do it according to the girl's mind......"
The tailor estimated that it would take a few days to make two sets of clothes with more complex styles, and then three sets in one day tomorrow.
Ling Xiaoning also wanted to get a new dress or two as soon as possible, so he agreed with the tailor's idea.
After a day, Akiba went to the tailor's shop and took three sets of finished clothes.
One set is an antique-high knee-length slip dress with a light jacket.
One is a mid-sleeved cheongsam, and the other is a shorter bandeau strap and skirt suit.
Akiba got the clothes and was a little surprised after looking at them. "Master, you really have a very novel idea, I don't know how many things you still have in your head that we ordinary people can't think of...... But the style of this dress is too bold, if you walk down the street with your clothes on, I am afraid that others will mistake you for a dusty woman......"
"What kind of dusty woman? My clothes are a little shorter than most of them, but they are still covered......"
"This ......"
Akiba couldn't help frowning, a little embarrassed.
"If you like to wear what style of clothes you like to wear in this courtyard, there is nothing to say, but if you wear this dress to the earphones, which has attracted everyone's onlookers and spread to the ears of His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince, I am afraid that it will make His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince angry......"
"I can wear whatever I like, what is there for him to be angry about, and I don't want him to wear ......"
"This ...... Autumn leaves are also a kind heart, and please think twice before acting! ”
Ling Xiaoning put on his own distinctive clothes and became the most beautiful boy on the whole street.
was hit by what Akiba said, and after the blow, I couldn't help but fall into thinking.
What Akiba said may be what most people think, but if you insist on going your own way, it may really bring some trouble.
After a moment of silence, she decided not to be in a hurry to put on new clothes, it was better to wait for Song Zhiqiu to come over and personally show him how to wear them, see how he reacted, and then make a decision.
Ling Xiaoning felt that his design was very good, and the tailor had basically made it according to the requirements, so there should not be such a bad evaluation.
