Zhou Jingrong felt that the predicament faced by the water side due to the loss of orders was inseparable from Mrs. Song.

However, even if she knew that Mrs. Song was making trouble behind her back, Zhou Jingrong would not have a head-on conflict with her.

After all, the Song family is an official, if it is not necessary, she does not want to have a hard time with it, and she does not want Song Tinglan to be embarrassed by it.

And she believes that as long as she has enough strength, she can naturally make those small actions and slander self-defeating.

So what she wants to do is to let more people recognize the brand on the water side, instead of wasting time fighting with Mrs. Song.

Based on this concept, Zhou Jingrong has a lot of brains, how can he win back customers?

The best way is to come up with better clothing design and speak with strength.

Just when Zhou Jingrong was busy in order to reverse the predicament on the water side, Qixi quietly came.

On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the Begging Festival is a festival for women to beg for ingenuity and obtain a happy marriage, and it is also a rare day for women to go out and play at will without constraints.

As early as a few days ago, Fu Raohua came to beg Zhou Jingrong to help intercede with the Wu family and allow her to go out.

This rare festival, Fu Raohua naturally wants to go out to play. However, since Fu Chunhua's incident, the Wu family is always worried that her daughter will meet bad people, and she has also strengthened her supervision of Fu Raohua, not allowing her to take half a step out of the house.

Fortunately, Qixi Festival is a grand festival, Zhou Jingrong just mentioned it to Mrs. Fu, and Mrs. Fu spoke, asking Fu Yunshen and Wu Mingyue to travel with their daughters, and Wu had to relax.

Because it is a festival, the streets are very lively, and there are many colorful entertainment activities everywhere. Later, there will be a fireworks display on the side of Wangjiang Tower.

Several of Zhou Jingrong's shops also held activities to suit the occasion, and the highlight was on the water side, she couldn't rest assured, and she wanted to come to the scene to command.

After leaving the house, she explained her whereabouts to everyone and asked them if they would like to go with her.

Fu Yunshen took the lead and said that he would accompany her.

Fu Raohua also hurriedly expressed her thoughts: "I want to go to Wangjiang Tower to watch the fireworks display." ”

On the water side, there is a distance from Wangjiang Tower, and the pedestrians on the street are shoulder to shoulder, so it is not easy to take a car, so you can only walk.

Fu Raohua was afraid that she would not have time to watch the fireworks, and on the other hand, she didn't want to be the light bulb of Fu Yunshen and Zhou Jingrong, disturbing their two-person world.

After Fu Raohua finished speaking, she looked at Lin Shutong with a blank eye, hoping to get her understanding and support.

Lin Shutong said: "I heard that the second cousin's shop also has activities, but I want to see it." ”

Fu Raohua suddenly looked like a balloon that had leaked air, and she was instantly defeated.

There are not many daughters in the Fu family, and Gan Tang and Fu Chunhua are all stumped by children, and now only she and Lin Shutong, two girls who have not left the cabinet, are walking with Fu Yunshen and his wife and Wu Mingyue.

If Lin Shutong and Fu Yunshen and Zhou Jingrong are together, only she and Wu Mingyue will be left. Although the two are cousins, there is a difference between men and women, and if they get along alone, they are afraid of causing gossip.

Zhou Jingrong saw that Fu Raohua's face was tangled and understood her worries, so she dragged Fu Yunshen aside and whispered to him: "You accompany Rao Niang to Wangjiang Tower." ”

Fu Yunshen was stunned: "What about you?" ”

Zhou Jingrong said: "I took Cousin Tong to the water side. ”

Fu Yunshen frowned, disagreeing: "It's not safe." ”

Zhou Jingrong said helplessly: "Cousin Tong and I, as well as Xian Ge Yayi, you will lend me Shifeng, and bring a few more guys, there are almost ten people in total, what's not safe?" ”

Zhou Jingrong said, and said with a smile: "Are you still afraid that I will lose it?" ”

Zhou Jingrong was joking, but Fu Yunshen looked at her seriously, and said in a solemn tone: "Well, I'm afraid you'll lose it." ”

Zhou Jingrong couldn't tell if Fu Yunshen was joking or not, but he just met his eyes that were as black as ink but shining in the dark night, and for some reason he suddenly became short of breath. She looked away in a panic, not daring to look at him.

In the end, Fu Raohua still failed to go to Wangjiang Tower, so she could only obey the majority and continue to follow everyone.

"Well, here's for you."

Fu Raohua was sulking to herself, and Wu Mingyue didn't know when she bought a candy man and handed it to her eyes.

Fu Raohua looked at the sugar-yellow pouting little man in Wu Mingyue's hand, wasn't it exactly what she looked like?

Her face turned red, and she said coquettishly: "Cousin Yue, sugar people are things that children eat, and I'm already an adult, so I don't eat them." ”

Wu Mingyue lowered his hand and played with the candy man in his hand, his expression was sneering, and his tone was a little nostalgic: "Yes, but I remember that you loved candy the most when you were young." Whenever you want to cry, or someone makes you unhappy, just give you a piece of candy, and you will burst into tears and laugh, and you will not complain, so you can coax you very much. At that time, I was thinking, this is really a stupid girl, what if someone cheats her. Before I knew it, the silly girl had grown up! ”

Wu Mingyue's eyes were gentle, and his voice was soft, like a lover's whisper, and Fu Raohua's ears were hot when he listened.

Fu Raohua didn't know why, her brain suddenly became hot, so she reached out and snatched the sugar man from Wu Mingyue's hand, and then walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Zhou Jingrong, and didn't look at him again.

Wu Mingyue looked at the little girl's appearance of running away, and gently twisted the fragrant body temperature left by her fingertips that were inadvertently touched by her fingers, and chuckled.

The group talked and laughed all the way, and slowly walked to the side of the water, and saw a tall round platform set up in front of the door from a distance. There were many people around the high platform, all of whom craned their necks to look up at the platform.

On the high platform, one after another huge life-size paintings are slowly rotating around the round platform. There are torches in the middle of the stage, which illuminates the painting brightly, so that people can clearly see the women in different postures in the painting, wearing solemn or lively or elegant or cute clothes, each with its own merits.

Fu Raohua just wanted to see the fireworks and was stirred up by Wu Mingyue, but all of them were replaced by the scene in front of her, and muttered, "What is this?" ”

Lin Shutong covered his lips and exclaimed: "Is this a marquee?" How can there be such a big marquee? ”

Of course, this is not a marquee, but it is also inspired by the marquee.

In fact, Zhou Jingrong's original idea was to hold a fashion show during the Qixi Festival, when many women can travel freely without restrictions.

As long as she sees these good-looking clothes and jewelry with her own eyes, Zhou Jingrong believes that no one will not be impressed.

However, in ancient times, the idea of running a fashion catwalk was too unrealistic.

Not to mention such a show up and everyone evaluates it, there is no model at all. It's that money can make ghosts grind, whether it's models or clothes, they will be gossiped about.

In this way, no matter how much the viewer likes it, he will not buy it.

So Zhou Jingrong thought of replacing people with paintings and holding a unique ancient fashion show.

A total of 12 sets of costumes on display this time are the latest styles designed by Zhou Jingrong and the tailors and embroiderers on the water side. Each set has its own unique temperament and is irreplaceable.

Inspired by the marquee, she created a simple windmill-like rotating device that allows the painting to rotate as soon as someone turns the handle, allowing for an all-round display and an attractive effect.

Fu Raohua took a fancy to the set of lake-dyed smoke-colored silver thread twisted beads soft silk blouse with a jade smoke Luo Qiyun skirt, plus a set of delicate and chic white jade heads, which were even more brilliant against the backdrop of the firelight.

She whispered to Zhou Jingrong: "Second sister-in-law, that set of clothes is so beautiful." I'm worried about what to wear for the ceremony in two months, is it just right to wear that outfit? ”

Fu Raohua's thoughts were self-evident, Zhou Jingrong laughed at her villain's speech, so she nodded her nose and said with a smile: "The activities organized by the shop are first, if that costume is not selected away, I can send it to you." But if you really like it, it's best to go to the event and get a double insurance. ”

In order to match the word "begging coincidence", many shops hold activities that focus on giving women the opportunity to show their talents, and the water side is no exception.

Regardless of gender, participants can choose one of the 12 costumes as a prize by placing their handmade items on the display table, voting for them by the audience, and ranking in the top three at the end of the event.

Lin Shutong was already eager to try it and made a long poem to show, which was immediately sought after by many people.

Fu Raohua was still hesitantly pointing at each other, anxious and frightened.

Although Fu Raohua is lively by nature, she has always been raised in the deep boudoir, and she has been restrained by the Wu family, and her personality is inevitably suppressed, and sometimes she can't let go.

Zhou Jingrong encouraged her: "Give it a try, just do anything, you can use the embroidery you did before." Even if it doesn't work, no one will know that it's you, and you're not afraid of being embarrassed. It's a very popular dress, and if you hesitate a little longer, you might end up with someone else's pocket. ”

Fu Raohua was stimulated by Zhou Jingrong's words, and asked Cui Xiang to take scissors and colored paper, and with a few flexible movements of her hand, a paper-cut of a lotus pond fish play appeared vividly in front of her.

Zhou Jingrong was very applauded, and sighed with admiration: "Yes, I didn't expect you to have this kind of craftsmanship." ”

Fu Raohua was praised, slightly proud, and very shy.

Wu Mingyue followed and made a poem and submitted it.

Zhou Jingrong watched the enthusiasm of everyone with joy, and was very satisfied with the results of this event.

Fu Yunshen asked for a pen and paper, stood by the simple table, splashed ink, and wrote a calligraphy with vigorous handwriting.

Zhou Jingrong was surprised: "You also want to participate?" ”

Fu Yunshen replied lightly: "Hmm." ”

Fu Yunshen is a well-known talent, and he is especially famous for calligraphy. Before, Zhou Jingrong saw that someone came to him to ask for words, and he thought it was incredible.

If he makes a move, he will be selected. But what does he want the woman's clothes for, and to whom does he want to give them?

Zhou Jingrong was still thinking nonsense, Fu Yunshen heard that she was silent, and added an explanation in hindsight: "Send you." ”

Zhou Jingrong suddenly felt ridiculous: "Send me?" Give it to me with the clothes I made, and your gift is too chic. ”

Fu Yunshen didn't hear the sarcasm in Zhou Jingrong's words at all, and said quite smugly: "It's good if you think it's chic." ”

Zhou Jingrong was speechless and crazy, did she mean this?
