Chapter 15: The Dressing House (2)

In the end, Aunt Ming chose a good light-colored soft silk for the first time, and tailored it for her, saying that she was going to make a set of mopping smoke cage plum blossom water skirt, and Mrs. Yu made a set of gold and butterfly flower cloud satin skirts.

From the selection of cloth to the measurement, Aunt Ming has been doing it herself, when Aunt Ming tailored Mrs. Yu, Liniang explained in a low voice at the first meeting, it turned out that Aunt Ming was a member of Mrs. Yu's mother's family, and Mrs. Yu was a sister since childhood. Because of an excellent embroidery skill, Mrs. Yu invited to the jade embroidery workshop, is one of the best embroidery girls in the first room, half a year ago because she refused to call Aunt Chen as his wife, and refused to make clothes for Aunt Chen in person, Aunt Chen insisted on asking the master to lower her to the store as a female servant, the jade master had no choice but to let Aunt Ming come to this dress building as a faΓ§ade embroidery.

When she heard it for the first time, she was moved in her heart, and she suddenly had a good impression and respect for Aunt Ming from the bottom of her heart.

This woman is using her unique way to maintain the dignity of Madame Yu with her own future.

After measuring the size, Aunt Ming whispered some words to a woman in Tsing Yi, and asked the woman in Tsing Yi to send the silk and size to the third floor, which is the embroidery room.

Downstairs, Aunt Ming chose a bright position by the window, away from those noble ladies with a lot of eyes, she and Mrs. Yu have not seen each other for a long time, she has some thoughtful things to say, I don't want to disturb them, I took Mrs. Yu's hand when I first saw it, and said coquettishly, "Mother, I want to go out on the street to have a look, okay?" ”

Mrs. Yu was a little hesitant, she looked at the bustling crowd outside, and then looked at Chu Jian, and was about to speak, Aunt Ming's crisp voice had already sounded, "The girl has lived in the remote town of Yancheng for a long time, and she must miss the prosperity of Ningcheng, so you just let her go out for a walk, isn't there a girl like Lingyu watching?" ”

When Mrs. Yu heard this, she glanced at Aunt Ming, "You are the most accustomed to her." ”

When I saw it for the first time, I was happy in my heart, and I thanked Aunt Ming with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Ming, mother, then I went out with Lingyu, I promise, I will definitely not run around, we will go around." ”

Madam Yu glanced at her first sight helplessly, and said softly, "Be careful, don't go far." ”

When I first saw it, I nodded hurriedly like pounding garlic, and agreed quietly, but the person had already taken Lingyu's hand and ran out of the building.

Out of the store, the first time I saw was an excited face, the corners of the eyebrows and eyes could not hide the smile, if it wasn't for too many people, she would really cheer three times, she felt like a bird that suddenly gave birth to wings, able to fly freely, the air was fresh, everything looked beautiful.

Even though she was able to get this moment of freedom for a very short time, she was satisfied. Since she came to this world, she can only move in a specific place of Madame Yu every day, and she understands that Madame Yu can't let go of Xiao Yu's first sight of falling into the water, so she will be overly nervous. Now that she can get in touch with and feel the wider side of this world, the excitement in her heart is indescribable.

"Lingyu, what's that?" A young and pure little face was full of curiosity, the first time she saw Lingyu's hand tightly held, her eyes rolled from side to side, and when she saw a man with a shelf ringing a bell everywhere, she couldn't help but ask Lingyu out loud.

Lingyu said with a smile as she blocked the crowd of people coming towards them, "That's the rouge seller." ”

"Ah, oh, that's where our rouge was bought?" At first sight, I suddenly realized.

"No, we use the rouge of the flower name, and that's the best quality." Lingyu replied.

This seller is also selling the same as the modern ones who set up stalls, nodding at first sight.

This street clearly reflects the people's livelihood in this country, although the people here are not all rich, but they have no worries about food and clothing, every common person has a satisfied smile on their faces, and, from the way she returned to Ningcheng in Yancheng, there are almost no beggars, this country has a very good emperor, in just fifty years, can make the post-war depression economic recovery, not to be underestimated.

There are everything sold on this street, it is very lively, there are steaming noodle soups, there are stalls selling tofu brains, selling baked cakes, selling steamed buns and candy people, and there are also shops selling antiques and jade, qin, chess, calligraphy and paintings.

Standing in the middle of the street at first sight, I felt the comfortable happiness of this ordinary life.

Here, there is the life she wants, a comfortable, ordinary and calm life.

She thought, this is probably fate arranged for her, is it a favor and compassion for her?

"Girl, look, Cui Gongzi." Lingyu suddenly tugged at Hatsumi's hand and pointed to the study for Hatsumi to look at.

Chu Jian followed her gesture and looked, sure enough, it was Cui Ziyin, he was standing in front of the bookshelf in the study, looking down at the book, that quiet and serious appearance, as if everything around him was cut off from him.

Chujian pursed his lips and chuckled, glanced at Lingyu, lightened his steps, and walked towards Cui Ziyin, who knew that at the door of the study, they heard a shrill voice with a disdainful tone coming from inside, "This son, are you going to our store to read or buy books?" Our store is not available for free reading. ”

Hatsumi stopped and looked coldly at the man dressed as a shopkeeper standing behind Cui Ziyin.

Cui Ziyin came back to her senses suddenly, her face flushed in an instant, and she stammered a little when she spoke, "Hug ...... Excuse me, but how much is this book? ”

The shopkeeper was slightly stunned when Cui Ziyin turned around, and after hearing Cui Ziyin's words, he coughed a few times, "Seeing that you are also a poor scholar, you can pay ten cents." ”

"Ten cents?" Cui Ziyin's face seemed to be even redder, and he took out a few copper coins from his arms, counted them, and there were only six copper coins.

The shopkeeper's face immediately changed again, Cui Ziyin was slanted at the corner of his eyes, and his nostrils were almost blowing into the sky.

"I'll buy it next time, today...... Silver two belts are insufficient. Cui Ziyin lowered his head and stuffed the book back into the shopkeeper's hand, feeling embarrassed in his heart.

The shopkeeper opened his mouth, his eyes full of anger, and the book had been turned to some corners.

"Cui Ziyin, why don't you bring a ring when you go out? You always forget to go out with a silver and two rings, but you really have to change it. When she first saw her feet raised and stepped into the study, her delicate and childish voice sounded clearly, but she also looked at the shopkeeper with half an eye.

"First time I saw ......" Cui Ziyin's peach petal-like eyes lit up, and then dimmed again, and she felt even more embarrassed.

"Lingyu, why don't you help Cui Gongzi buy the book, lest the book get some copper smell." After smiling sweetly at Cui Ziyin for the first time, the corners of his eyes were raised, and he squinted at the book in the shopkeeper's hand, and said to Lingyu.

The corners of Lingyu's mouth were lightly raised, and he responded respectfully, took out a piece of silver from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper, reached out and pulled out the book in his hand, and handed it to Cui Ziyin with both hands.

Cui Ziyin looked at Chu Jian gratefully and took the book from Lingyu's hand.

"The shopkeeper is not looking for silver taels." Lingyu covered her mouth and chuckled, then looked at the shopkeeper coldly, and said in an even more disdainful tone.

"Yes, girl, please...... Please wait. ”

Chujian sneered, and didn't look at the shopkeeper who had changed his attitude towards her 180 degrees.
