Text Chapter 36 Caiyun Lou chooses clothes
Get on the carriage and slowly drive on the neat stone road to make a cheerful sound, although the carriage of Yunshang is a four-person carriage, but it is still very spacious for six people, the carriage soft seat is placed on a pair of lotus blue sprinkled flowers Hunan embroidery cushion, put the hibiscus color hundred flower pattern pillows, there is a meter on both sides of the carriage to the long and wide bench, and the water green sprinkled lotus pattern cushion is placed on it.
In the center of the carriage put a small number of yellow rosewood four corners, the lotus blue lake scenery embroidered curtain is laid on the table, two azure glazed plates are seen on the table, a plate of pomegranate rice is on it, only to see the grains are full, ruddy and treasure, and the other plate is placed in the sweet persimmon, a piece of yellow-orange orange, looking gratifying.
Yun Sheng smiled and picked up a sweet persimmon and said to Chu Mengxi: "Big sister, this is the sweet persimmon just sent from the other garden, although it can't be compared to the tribute, but this taste is still good, big sister try it?" ”
Chu Mengxi nodded with a smile and said, "Every summer and autumn, I think about your fruit." ”
"It's good if the big sister likes it." Xia Yunshang smiled and ate pomegranates, "This autumn is really a good season, but unfortunately autumn is too short, and it will soon be winter again." ”
"Yes, Miss hates winter the most, and this cold hand and foot problem is always bad." Bihe said worriedly
"Hey, this is a way to do it, and the doctor said that it was the reason why the womb was weaker. In the future, I can only take care of my life," Yunshang frowned and said, "It's better to be a big sister, the big sister's hands are like a small stove in winter, but how do you recuperate?" ”
Chu Mengxi put down most of the sweet persimmons he had eaten with a smile and said, "I don't have any special recuperation, that is, I have been taking tonic since autumn, I think this is the reason." ”
"But I can't do it." Yunshang said depressedly
"This tonic is not a one-time effort, you usually don't like those ginseng tea longan, how can you take a good tonic?" Chu Mengxi took the handkerchief handed by Jinxi, carefully wiped his sweet fingers, and said with a smile.
"Well, that's what the big sister said," Yun Sheng pouted, pushed the pomegranate in front of Chu Mengxi in front of him, and said with a smile: "Don't talk about this, big sister try the pomegranate, this year's pomegranate is exceptionally sweet." ”
"Well, good" Chu Mengxi smiled and picked up a pomegranate and tasted it, "Well, it's really sweet." ”
"Really? The big sister eats more. Yunshang said sweetly
"Hmm~Good~"
A few people all the way to the Caiyun Building, Caiyun Building is located in the downtown of East Street, it is not far from the drunken moon Xuan, it is a five-storey small building, because of the operation of various colors of clothing fabrics, considering that men and women are different, divided into one or two two floors for the male guest, three, four or five floors for the female guest, and the female guest, the third floor for the garment, the fourth and fifth two floors for the custom, because the Caiyun Building covers precious cloth from all over the world, the embroidery lady is proficient in embroidery, the clothes made are exquisite, the skills are comparable to the palace clothing bureau, so the guests are endless, so it is not lively.
"I've seen two young ladies, I don't know if the two young ladies are ordering clothes or buying clothes?" A woman in a goose-yellow oriole embroidered cardigan skirt greeted her with a smile, although both young ladies were masked with tulle, just looking at this body style felt good, and did not dare to snub the coquettish.
"I heard that your store has a fresh style, so I came here to take a look at the sample clothes from the girl." Yunshang said gently.
"This young lady thinks she is an old customer of our store, she is so familiar with this store, I will go to pick up the style now, and invite the two young ladies to have tea on the fifth floor." The woman smiled and called a young girl, wearing a concubine-colored full-breasted skirt and combing her hair in a double bun, to lead the way for the two.
The tea drinking place on the fifth floor is located near the window, the tables are separated by colored curtains, and one side of the railing is the bustling street, and the other side is a huge dressing mirror and all kinds of exquisite clothes.
"Every time I come here, I feel that it is a little more exquisite, this shopkeeper is really a wonderful person, and he can easily move between vulgarity and prosperity." Chu Mengxi said in admiration.
"Yes, every time I come, there are surprises, this Caiyun Building really fits the name." Yunshang said with a smile.
"The two young ladies have been waiting for a long time." A woman wearing a dark blue lotus skirt slowly appeared on the side, her face was beautiful, her voice was crisp, and she was willing to get closer to her.
Several people looked at each other and nodded with a smile, "I heard that the two young ladies came to see the new samples from my family, so I bothered that the two young ladies invited me with me." ”
"Youlao," Yunshang said with a smile
"Miss is polite," after speaking, he led in front, and opened the curtain on the east side of the fifth floor to enter, only to see that there were five sets of samples placed in it, which were divided into Caiyun out of Xiufei's cloud-colored moire cardigan skirt, with vermilion moire broken jade belt, Linhua Zhaoshui water green collared skirt, with lotus green beaded flower-shaped belt, moonfall bamboo shadow moon white chest skirt, with waning moon white jade belt, Luan Bird Breath Flower Smoke Haze Jacket Skirt, with Flying Bird Jade Belt, Hibiscus Double Flying Butterfly Smoke Luo Purple Chest Skirt, with butterfly red coral belt. Under the sunlight outside the window, I only feel that the embroidery is shocking, and each piece is unique.
"Caiyun Building is really ingenious, this is going to stump us, but how to choose?" Yunshang joked with a smile
"Miss, but choose the one that suits your eyes the most, the two young ladies are regular customers and must know the rules of our store." The cyan woman said
"Well, there is only one set of clothes on the fifth floor, so how many are these?" Chu Mengxi asked with a smile, pointing to the five sets of clothes
"When Miss chooses, the same set of clothes will be stored in our store, and there will never be a second set on the market, Miss rest assured."
"Hmm~ We can naturally trust the reputation of Caiyun Building, can the big sister value it?" Xia Yunshang asked with a smile
Chu Mengxi slowly walked to the front of the five sets of clothes and looked carefully, only to feel that the aqua green set was particularly fond of it, and it was not bad to look at Yan Luo Zi, his eyes fluctuated, he pondered slightly, and said to Yun Sheng with a smile: "I like Yan Luo Purple very much, I want to try this set." ”
"Well~ it's very beautiful, but I thought the big sister would choose the aqua green set." Xia Yunshang smiled and picked up the aqua green set and looked at it
"Well, I like that set too, but I like it even more."
"Then, I'll want this set of water green."
"Then please ask the two young ladies to change their clothes." The cyan woman said with a smile, stretching out her hand to make a word of please.
"Youlao" and his party walked through the hall and walked to the side room, where their respective personal maids served them to change their clothes.
"Bihe, what do you think?" Yunshang asked in a low voice
Bihe said in a low voice while changing her clothes for Yunshang: "I look at Miss Chu, there seems to be no one around Miss Chu who understands medicine. ”
"Hmm~~ I'll see the situation of the clothes later." Yunshang said calmly
"Yes, Miss"
After a while, the two of them changed their clothes and walked to the two high-enamel bronze mirrors on both sides, Chu Mengxi changed the beauty of the entrance to the point where he showed a bit of demonic rule, and the red coral belt flashed a little red light around his waist. Xia Yunshang was dressed in a water-green shirt, and trembled slightly in the wind as if she had unloaded a delicate lotus.
"The two young ladies are so good-looking, so that people ignore our clothes in Caiyun Building."
"People rely on clothes, and Buddhas rely on gold. These two sets of clothes are really good. Chu Mengxi looked at the person in the mirror with satisfaction and said with a smile
"Big sister is a good fit for this color." Xia Yunshang said with a smile, "This red coral plays a role in the color palette of embellishment, and it is very good." ”
"Yes, I feel so too~" Saying that, Chu Mengxi gently stroked the red coral on his waist, only to feel very fond of it.
"Third sister, how about we decide on these two sets?"
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted." Yunshang said with a smile, "Tired girl, we will order these two sets, and tomorrow we will measure the size and take the deposit at the Zhenguo Mansion." How about my big sister go to my house tomorrow? ”
"Of course~~uh~" Chu Mengxi suddenly frowned, and covered his upper abdomen with his right hand and looked embarrassed.
"What's wrong with big sister?" Xia Yunshang asked in surprise
"Somehow, my upper abdomen suddenly became uncomfortable." Chu Mengxi said uncomfortably
"Big sister does it matter? Do I need to see a doctor? Xia Yunshang asked
"I shouldn't need to, I think I might have caught a cold yesterday."
"Miss, please go to the side room to rest, I ordered some hot tea to see if it can be better."
"Thank you." Yunshang nodded in thanks
"You're welcome, Miss." The cyan woman hurriedly left to make arrangements.
"Jinxi," Chu Mengxi called with a frown
"Yes, miss." Jinxi replied nervously, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Chu Mengxi's hand.
Miss? And not the eldest lady? Hearing this, Yunshang glanced at Jinxi who came forward, this Jinxi seemed to be a second-class maid, not as favored as Shulan and Shuxiang, and when Chu Mengxi succeeded him as a concubine, she became Chu Mengxi's most powerful maid, and her status in Jingshu Garden was quite high, what is the origin of this Jinxi? Such a title also means that in Jinxi's eyes, there is only one master like Chu Mengxi? It seems that this Jinxi doesn't understand medicine, so who is the person who understands medicine?
"Miss, I'll help you go to the side room to rest for a while." Jinxi said softly
"Hmm~"
"Two young ladies, please use hot tea."
"Thank you, big sister, let's use some hot tea first, and see if it might be better."
"Well, okay~" Chu Mengxi smiled reluctantly, and drank some tea while served by Jinxi, but after a while, he still didn't get any better. Yun Sheng couldn't help but say anxiously, "I see that the eldest sister doesn't seem to be getting better, this is not far from Tongjitang, so let's go to Tongjitang to have a look, right?" ”
"Okay~" Chu Mengxi nodded.
"Zijuan, go hire a soft sedan chair, it's slower to toss the carriage back and forth."
"Yes, miss." Zijuan hurriedly left the room, and the atmosphere in the room was quiet again. Yunshang was waited by Bihe to change her clothes, considering that Chu Mengxi was unwell, after a while, Zijuan knocked on the door and entered, and whispered: "Miss, the soft sedan is already waiting outside." ”
"Alright, let's go. Bihe, go and inform the girl just now, this smoke-colored shirt will be worn for the time being, and will be picked up from the Zhenguo Mansion tomorrow. ”
"Yes, miss."
Among the group, Chu Mengxi and Xia Yunshang sat in the soft sedan chair and rushed to the direction of Tongji Hall, and after two moments, they arrived at Tongji Hall.
"Miss Ann." The guy greeted warmly.
"Shopkeeper Cao is here?" Yunshang asked with a smile
"Back to Miss, the shopkeeper is on the clinic today, and I want to come back after a while, I don't know what Miss is doing?"
"Big sister suddenly feels unwell, then, is Dr. Han available?"
"Yes, yes, then please Miss and, uh, the patient will go upstairs and wait for a while, and the little one will go and inform Dr. Han."
"There is labor."
