Chapter 563: Returning Home
After living in her mother's house for a month, Lan returned to Cui's house, and the weather was cold, so Xiuniang made winter clothes and showed her.
A long cloak of silver rat skin, with a hood to protect against wind and snow, is covered with a bright red brocade embroidered with a lotus pattern, revealing the raw edges, warm and beautiful.
There is also a short and medium-sized cloak, which is a small stand-up collar cloak made of red doro, and the fabric is crisp and beautiful.
All kinds of cloud brocade brocade brocade embroidery gowns and skirts, all kinds of different colors and different patterns, especially the brilliance, exquisite and beautiful.
Zilan flipped through the clothes and skirts made on the table, most of them were red, and the patterns were exquisite and complicated, as well as lake blue and royal blue, as well as light blue and turquoise. It's all her favorite colors on weekdays.
The embroidery is also elegant, very pleasing to your heart's content, but there are a few sets of large-sleeved dresses, which need to be worn to prevent entering the palace or banquet.
"Well done, appreciated the sewing room. Are the second master's clothes and boots ready? Let the snacks be exhausted. ”
"It's almost there, there's only one last bit left, and I can send it tomorrow and tomorrow."
Sandalwood stepped forward and put away her clothes.
"Well, the second master is going out, make a few more good-looking robes, as well as riding clothes, and cloaks, and take out the mink cloak I made."
She had nothing to do at her mother's house, she made two mink cloaks, one for her father and one for Cui Hao, and her brother didn't have to worry about her sister-in-law being busy.
The black mink velvet glows blue-black in the sun, and it looks very soft and moist and oily.
This is the animal skin in her space, which has a certain effect on keeping warm and shock-proof, but it is not as powerful as armor.
The main thing is that the warmth effect is much better than ordinary mink, and the dark color of mink is very suitable for men, and it looks stable and handsome.
The outer cover is sewn on the outside, using a bright azure color, with a large fur collar, and the man's cloak is generally a large fur collar that looks very luxurious, and there is rarely a hood design.
The reason is very simple, men are generally full of hair, that is, Dao Gu has a crown on her head, and it is inconvenient to wear a cloak.
Hair binding is also particular about men, and there will be a crown ceremony when adulthood, generally after marriage, about fifteen to twenty years old.
It is also possible to perform the salute before marrying a wife, which means that the man can no longer rely on his parents when he becomes an adult, especially the clan man can exercise the rights and obligations of an adult man, take over the resources of the family and fulfill his responsibilities.
The meaning of hair in ancient times was different from that of men and women, and the meaning of hairstyles and rituals was different for each different period of growth, and the ancients attached great importance to hair.
Men's hair crowns also have many styles and patterns, which are definitely not inferior to women's hairpins.
Cui Hao has two full boxes of crowns, and there are more gorgeous inlaid jewels, which are suitable for banquets and formal occasions.
There are also jade that are more elegant to wear, as well as the filial piety use of plain silver, and the scarves are different, but most of them were prepared for him by Zilan, and he left them when he saw them.
The cloak is made by herself, and the cover is covered with a satin cover made of a relatively elegant jacquard dark pattern, which is extremely stable and good-looking, and also makes up for the shortcomings of her embroidery work.
Zilan unfolded it to show them, "How is it okay?" ”
The pattern of jacquard is dark moire, and the pattern can be faintly seen in the sun, which is low-key and luxurious.
"It's beautiful. It's just that it won't be too lenient. ”
Sandalwood asked, tilting her head.
"It's deliberately made wider, men often run outside, sometimes tired and have no place to rest, a little wider wrapped in yourself can lean on, so that you won't catch a cold, barely a small quilt cover."
"Oh, if you want to say that, it's very suitable, the cut is also good-looking, the second master is tall and looks very expensive in a big hair collar."
"yes, it's okay. I also made a pair of boots, which were very warm. ”
I have nothing to do when I'm idle, I have to pick up the needlework again, as long as I don't let her embroider, it's still decent and can see people, but the embroidery won't be done, and the shortcomings will be leaked immediately, who makes this master too much.
She made a pair of boots out of offcuts, with a slightly longer frayed tube to protect her ankles.
I also made knee pads and waist pads, and men can't ride horses to the wind without this, and a layer of light red warm spider silk fabric is sewn inside.
also made a special one for the second elder and his in-laws, showing filial piety, mainly for idle panic.
"When Qiongxin comes back, you can help me bring this to the second elder, and I will take these two bodies to my mother later."
"Okay, the master should also rest, and you can't see the sky to do needlework, be careful of picking out your eyes."
"It's okay, I got two stitches during the change of seasons, and I haven't done it before."
"Grandma's embroidery is still okay, and the things made are very careful, and the stitches are fine."
"The embroidery is worse, forget it, don't force it. By the way, some of my clothes have also changed seasons, and some clothes that I can't wear when I'm a year old, you guys can pick them out, and take them away if you can give them away.
If you can't give it away, cut it to make a cushion or futon, let the skillful maid make it into a purse, and give it as a gift for the New Year. ”
"Okay, slave Ming'er will go and clean up."
"There are a lot of big sweaters, and this is not too taboo, so I gave it to the mother-in-law in the yard, and I can use it as a thin quilt. They are old and afraid of the cold.
The mansion also sent a gift, and the second master also had a lot, and I saw that some of them were old and couldn't be worn out, so they were sent one by one. ”
It's not a waste to send it out, there is no way that they are clans who go out and walk around more, so they can only wear new ones.
Clothes can be worn at home eighty percent new or half-old, but when you go out, most of them are new or make good friends who interact with each other, but no one wears frayed clothes to go out, that will be ridiculed Your family is going to lose.
The brocade and satin clothes are very delicate, and they can't be washed twice, so they are almost worn once or twice, so they are regularly packed up and given away.
"Grandma's charity, always thinking about the people below, this little thing the slave and maid will do, and when tomorrow is free, the slave and the maid will take the little girl to tidy up slowly, and we will send it to the poor who are not favored in the yard, and it is also grandma's heart."
Sandalwood smiled and spoke, very well able to understand Zilan's intentions.
"Well, don't be afraid if you make too much purse, take it to the mother-in-law's concierge and send a hair, and you can get a few copper plates if you sell it."
"Yes."
was saying that Cui Hao arrived home early, looking at the excitement in this house, he couldn't help but speak, "The new clothes are ready, let me take a look?" ”
"Yours will be two days away, but mine is done, you see."
Zilan chose two of her favorites and put them on her body to compare with him.
"This green one looks simple and beautiful, and the flowers are also well embroidered. This gorgeous red piece can be worn when you go out. ”
Cui Hao really took a closer look.
"I made a cloak for you, you can see if you like it or not, try to let me see if it's suitable, I'm changing it if it's not suitable. The boots are also done. ”
Zilan took something and showed it to him.
Cui Hao took off his cloak and put on the new cloak to show her.
Zilan smiled and nodded with satisfaction, Cui Hao has a good figure, tall and tall, long legs, wide shoulders, and very stylish clothes, really a model frame.
"Yes, try the shoe fit, can't you? I also made it for the second elder, and I turned around and asked someone to bring it over, but it was already cold. ”
"Okay, Ming'er's eldest brother and sister-in-law are going, just let them bring them over. It fits well, it's so warm, and I'll be wearing new shoes tomorrow. ”
Cui Hao changed into boots and stepped on them, soft and comfortable.
"You wear it, it's cold outside, I'm idle and have nothing to do, I made two pairs for you first, and there are a lot of rags, I'm making two pairs for you, it's enough, and two pairs for the old lady and the old lady."
