Chapter Seventy-Eight: Ready to Open
Out of May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter.
Bai Zhi and Hongdou opened the cage and prepared to gather Shen Qiutan's clothes.
"Our girl's clothes are too few, just a few back and forth, this is about to enter the summer, and I don't know when the second lady will cut new clothes." Hongdou folded the sun-washed jacket into the cage, but found that there was nothing to pick up, the only two sets of clothes were still made for the Spring Banquet, which were no longer suitable for wearing now, and one set was cut with the clothes given by Mrs. Tang, and there was nothing else.
Bai Zhi also said: "The girls from other families, hairpin ring jewelry, and clothes for the four seasons will be registered separately, and they will be registered separately when they arrive at our Agarwood ......House."
Her father and mother are the companions of the third lady, and her mother often talks about the food and clothing of the third lady when she is not out of the cabinet, and now that Bai Zhi has seen Shen Qiutan's use, it is naturally inevitable to compare.
When the third master went to a foreign post, the third lady took pity on the four of them to accompany the house and drag the family, so she left them to take care of Zhuangzi and the shop, and also thought that one day she would return to the capital, and she only brought Yuxiang and Shisu, the two big girls who had not left the cabinet.
Originally, they took care of the property of the third lady's marriage, and they had a good life, but who knew that this Jingping Marquis Mansion was so shameless.
Mrs. Shen became the house, and within a few years, she began to exploit the third lady's dowry, which is not counted, while the lady went to office with the third master, even the lady's dowry Zhuangzi was taken away. The third lady's companion room is naturally not dry, the third lady is still there, why do these four ladies overstep their responsibilities?
The four families were thinking about sending a letter to the third lady, and at the same time arguing with the Shen family, but before the letter was sent, the news that the third lady and the third master died in Jibeizhou was transmitted, but the matter was not over, and their companions couldn't take care of the sadness, so they were all planted, and they were imprisoned. His parents were cowardly, but they just made a fuss at that time, and they were not the ones who took the lead, so they reluctantly stayed in the capital and guarded the third lady to live in a small Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing.
Thanks to the fact that this Zhuangzi is not big, and there has been no output over the years, the Shen family has not reached out again.
As for the other three, the one that came up was already dead, and the other two didn't know where they had been assigned.
If you talk about it, there is really no good thing in this Shen family, the third lady and the third master are not dead, they dare to blatantly take the dowry, and now the third master and the lady have passed away, leaving a pair of sisters and brothers, and they have fallen into such a wolf den, not to mention the word difficult can be described.
Bai Zhi sighed in her heart, but said: "That's it, Mrs. Tang didn't give some materials before, you and I work harder, pick those fine and soft materials, and cut two new sets of clothes for the girl these days." ”
"The girl gave all the good materials to the third son, and I don't know if I can make a set of clothes for the rest." Hongdou nodded, and muttered again: "Our girl's mind has never been on these clothes and hairpins, if it is a man, I am afraid that I will dare to take the imperial examination, right?" ”
She and Bai Zhi have been together for a few months, and they have also figured out a little bit of each other's temperament, Bai Zhi is white and clean, neat and clean, different from her own quick temper, in front of the nine girls, she did not deliberately want to press herself.
In this way, it can be regarded as peaceful.
What did Xu say, what was there, Xiaogua shouted excitedly: "Two sisters, someone at the door has given the girl clothes." ”
Originally, the four ladies were in charge, and they only made two sets of clothes for the girls every season, and the styles and materials were not ordinary. But now that the second lady is in charge, the number of clothes cut for the girl has directly doubled, and although the materials are not very luxurious, the styles are fashionable in Beijing.
Bai Zhi and Hongdou went downstairs, and sure enough, they saw that Mrs. Xu beside the second lady brought two little maids to deliver clothes.
Hongdou hurriedly asked Mrs. Xu to sit down, and Bai Zhi brought tea: "Mom is working hard, rest first." ”
Mrs. Xu was very useful, and looked at the attic in a blink of an eye: "Is the ninth girl there?" When the old woman came back, she had to say hello to the girl and see if the clothes were suitable. ”
"It's unfortunate that my mother came, our girl went to Jinchun Hall."
Mrs. Xu stood up: "In this case, the old woman will leave first." If the clothes are inappropriate, and then return to the second lady to know, there will naturally be an embroidery lady to change it. ”
Bai Zhi and Hongdou responded with a smile, but they didn't think so, the girl's clothes were not suitable, and they would naturally change them.
Mrs. Xu is waiting for the girl to bow her head to the second lady!
Since Xiao Changzhen almost died, Shen Qiutan came back from catching the imperial doctor, and quarreled with the second lady, and finally the second lady fainted, and both of them were punished, there was a bit of thin ice between Shen Qiutan and the Wang family.
She asked Qiao Shan to check the records of the mother-in-law in the house a few days before the accident in Changzhen, and the focus was not only on the mother-in-law in front of the old Yang family, but also the two mothers-in-law around the Wang family. It's just that the murderer of Changzhen has not come out for a reason.
Shen Qiutan has memories of his previous life, and he has always been impatient with these house battles; The Wang family thinks that he is an elder, and now that he is in this family, he is even more reluctant to bow his head to the junior first.
Shen Qiutan relied on the promise of Old Marquis Shen, and coldly stalemate with the Wang family, but the Wang family didn't know whether to worry about himself or cover it up for others.
The two girls opened the new clothes, the slightly thicker one was the upper shirt and the lower skirt, the snow-white top was embroidered with two bushes of bamboo, Shi Qing's plain skirt was also suitable for keeping filial piety, and the other three sets were light skirts, which could be worn when it was hotter.
"Just looking at this garment, it is suitable." Bai Zhi thought that the clothes sent by the second lady would be somewhat flawed, otherwise how could the girl come to the door?
Hongdou said: "Wait for the girl to come back and try it, girls of this age are pretty, but our girls are impatient with these clothes and jewelry." ”
"Who says I'm impatient with clothes?" Shen Qiutan went upstairs slowly, looking very good, she was still wearing the jacket skirt that had just returned to the Shen family earlier, and it was already a little thick at this time.
Seeing the two girls sorting out the cages, Shen Qiutan smiled and said: "I just don't have time to get clothes and jewelry, when this girl is developed, I will give each of you a set of red gold head noodles!" ”
These days, she is a cold bystander, Hongdou is not only clever, but also loyal to herself, as for Bai Zhi, she has not many doubts, she doesn't want to live every day, and she is not that hard-hearted, and over time, getting along with the two maids has become more and more casual.
The two girls knew that their girl had met a happy thing, but they still couldn't stop being happy, whether it was an empty silver ticket or not, they were already busy thanking each other.
Shen Qiutan waved his hand and went directly into the incense-making room.
The lockdown has been lifted, the store has been decorated, and if you look at it again, there is no problem, and you can open!
