Chapter Seventy-Four: The Wedding Dress

Ji Yan opened the courtyard door and looked at the woman standing outside the door, she shouted in surprise: "Aunt Wang, the snow is falling so heavily, you came here to find me, but there is something urgent?" The woman smiled and said, "Ji Yan, I just got the order of the Xiao Jiang family, and now I come over to help the third lady tailor the wedding dress." Ji Yan greeted her courtyard door with a smile, and introduced Jiang Wanmu who was standing in the courtyard: "Miss, this is Aunt Wang." Aunt Wang's craftsmanship is the best in the sewing room. ”

Jiang Wanmu glanced at the capable woman, put down the shovel in her hand, and turned around and walked to her room. Ji Yan explained to the woman in a soft voice behind her, "Aunt Wang, what Miss means is to let you follow her into the room. Seeing Ji Yan's nervous expression, the woman reached out and patted her arm with some sympathy, and comforted her: "I know your heart, I will help your young lady tailor her clothes." ”

Ji Yan and Aunt Wang entered the room, and Jiang Wanmu stood in the middle of the room. Aunt Wang took two steps forward with a smile, looked at Jiang Wanmu several times, turned her head to Ji Yan and said, "I look at the appearance of the third young lady, and when she gets married next year, she will grow taller." I guess the measurement won't be accurate now, so it's better for me to say what the wedding dress looks like, and you can help the third lady decide it. Ji Yan saw that Aunt Wang completely treated Jiang Wanmu like a nerd, there was a little urgency in her eyes, and when she looked at Jiang Wanmu, she saw her nodding indifferently.

Jiang Wanmu sat at the table comfortably, listening to Aunt Wang and Ji Yan talking about the style of the wedding dress. Every time Ji Yan heard a style, he had to look at Jiang Wanmu and ask, "Miss, do you think it's okay?" Jiang Wanmu was reluctant to raise her head, and said simply, clearly and lazily: "It's easy to put on and take off." "It's the same thing that is said and not said. After hearing this, Ji Yan said to Aunt Wang with a bitter face: "Aunt Wang, my young lady's wedding dress." I have to bother you to think about it. Please Aunt Wang help my young lady think of a child, dress up like that, and you can do that style. ”

Aunt Wang listened to Ji Yan's words, glanced at Jiang Wanmu who was lying on the table with her eyes closed, turned to Ji Yan and said, "There is a style, I will like it when I see the third lady." The garment was divided into two layers, the inside was made of red satin, and the outside was decorated with red hazy gauze. It's just that the red yarn was given to Mrs. by the eldest lady, saying that it was a gift from the palace. Madame is in the sewing room for the time being, and has not said what she is going to do. ”

Jiang Wanmu listened to Aunt Wang's hinting words. understood that she wanted to ask Mrs. Jiang for herself. She didn't think about the degree of difficulty first, only thinking about the preciousness of the red yarn, and she was already very unhappy. She thought about the red gauze draped on her body again, and it was a lively day to get married, and people came and went. If anyone is not careful, they will tear off a few pieces of veil when they get close to her. In the end, she is the only one who will lose face.

Jiang Wanmu immediately raised her head, and shook her head vigorously at Ji Yan behind Aunt Wang's back. After Ji Yan saw it. He sighed lightly and said, "Auntie, this matter is so difficult to do. Don't be so hard for you, for the lady's business. Miss's wedding dress, you might as well make one for Miss in the usual style, just cope with the big day that day. When Jiang Wanmu heard this, she gave Ji Yan a thumbs up, and when she saw her signal, she fell back on the table and closed her eyes.

After hearing this, Aunt Wang looked at Ji Yan, saw her talking, and looked behind her. She then turned to look at Jiang Wanmu, who had her eyes closed. He turned his head to Ji Yan and said, "Ji Yan." You still wake up your young lady and ask her about the style of the wedding dress she wants. There are still a few months to go, but we are from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. The master of the house has a lot of new clothes for us to make. I'm worried that Miss San will not be satisfied and want to change the style, and when the needlework room arrives, no one will have the kung fu to help her change the wedding dress. ”

Ji Yan listened to Aunt Wang's words, held back a sullen breath in her chest, and said to her: "As long as the wedding dress you make is of the right size and the style is easy to take off and wear, my young lady is easy-going, and she will accept any style." However, the yarn you just said, my young lady will not want it, on a good day, if the red yarn on the body is torn off, the new clothes will become rotten cloth clothes before they are put on the body for half a day. Jiang Wanmu listened to Ji Yan's honest words, and she desperately tried her best to hold back the smile that came to her lips.

Aunt Wang listened to Ji Yan's words, and the unbearable 'brush' suddenly moved, looked at Ji Yan and said loudly: "I kindly provide a new style to your young lady, you don't appreciate it, and you say this to anger me?" I didn't repay my kindness. Jiang Wanmu raised her head at this time, looked at Ji Yan and said, "Go, take a look outside, is it thunder?" Ji Yan hurriedly reassured her and said, "Miss, how can it thunder on a snowy day." It was Aunt Wang who was talking to me, and she was happy and louder for a while. ”

Jiang Wanmu glanced at her woman and said, "You talk to Ji Yan well, don't be too loud, too noisy, it will make me dream." When she finished speaking, she immediately closed her eyes and fell back on the table. Aunt Wang gave her such a fuss, but she was angry with Ji Yan and said: "Alas, I will do my best to do this job, after all, the third lady wears it out, if it looks good, I will also have face when I mention it." ”

Ji Yan immediately laughed after hearing this, and said, "Aunt Wang, I'll go get Miss's new clothes and measure the length for you?" Aunt Wang shook her head and said, "No, I have been making clothes for decades, and I just took a look at Miss San, and I know how long and long her wedding dress is." Ji Yan listened with admiration and said: "Aunt Wang, no wonder the people in the family say, 'Madame values you the most, and the clothes on your body must be made by Aunt Wang before you are willing to wear them.'" ”

Aunt Wang laughed when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "I have said this, now the fourth lady's needlework is doing well, and she respects Mrs. Madame's new clothes, I have to take them after I see it, Mrs. wears that clothes, which are close to the body and look good." Therefore, Mrs. specially rewarded Miss Four with a few pieces of good fabrics, and also let us be alone in the sewing room to help her make a wedding dress, and learn from Miss Four by the way. After hearing this, Ji Yan's eyes widened, and he sat down with Aunt Wang, and said, "Auntie, you are rarely free, accompany me for a conversation." ”

Aunt Wang glanced at Jiang Wanmu, who was lying on the table, and said softly: "I'm here, I'll make a noise with the third lady." Ji Yan chuckled lightly and said, "Auntie, at this time, the young lady will sleep on the table for a while." We can't talk to her. I have heard Aunt Xiaojiang praise you several times, and I only think that if I have the opportunity to meet my aunt, I must pull my aunt to have a good conversation, and by the way, I will follow the long knowledge, so as not to let Miss Fourth and Miss Fifth scold me for being stupid once they see me. ”

Aunt Wang looked at Ji Yan and sighed: "You just followed the wrong master, your father and mother couldn't leave you, and they were willing to go out of the house with the third lady." Alas, even the little prince of the palace heard that he had an extremely bad temperament. Your young lady is not a smart one, you still have to have some eyes in the future, and you have to be loyal to who is the master. The third lady's wedding dress, four sets of clothes inside, and two sets outside. Ji Yan, do you know how many clothes can be made of the fabric in Miss Four? ”

Ji Yan immediately shook his head and asked curiously: "Two more sets than my young lady?" Aunt Wang stretched out her hand and compared, and then said, "The wedding dress that Madame gave to the second lady is five sets more than that of the third sister." The fourth lady will coax the lady and the old lady to be happy, and the good fabrics will be rewarded as if they don't need money. Alas, Ji Yan, you still have an idea, if you follow the third lady closely, your family will not be able to get ahead in this life. Look at the third lady's temperament, there is nothing cute at all. Alas. ”

After a while, after the woman left, Jiang Wanmu seemed to be in the room, and she could still hear her 'sigh, sigh'. Jiang Wanmu pulled the auspicious words with an uneven face, and went back to the yard to shovel snow. Ji Yan looked at the calm Jiang Wanmu indignantly and said, "Miss, aren't you angry?" Jiang Wanmu raised her eyes and looked at her and said, "What's the anger?" How much is the wedding dress, and what can it be? Will it be better to prove that life will be better in the future? ”

Ji Yan shook his head again and again when he heard this, Jiang An and the two daughters who are now married out have more dowries than the daughters of ordinary people. Jiang Wanyi is Miss Chang, and when she married the Lian family, the dowry could be lined up in a street. But now that she is back at Jiang's house, every time she looks elated, she loses the brightness she used to have. Ji Yan had heard from the mouths of his subordinates that after Jiang Wanyi gave birth to her eldest daughter, Lian Zimo gradually favored a docile concubine, and the concubine gave birth to her eldest son a few days ago.

Jiang Wanxian's life, compared to Jiang Wanyi, is much better in the mouths of the people. At least the people in her husband's family obey her opinions in everything, plus she gave birth to two sons in a row, and she is a good housekeeper, and she is in the limelight in her husband's family. Ji Yan looked at Jiang Wanxian a few times, and saw that she was still following Jiang Wanyi in front of and behind her, but her demeanor was obviously different, and the smile on her face looked peaceful. It's not like when she was in the Jiang family, as if she was covered with thorns, and she was always thinking about stabbing people a few times.

Jiang Wanmu glanced at it, and there was a good word that she didn't shovel snow for a while, smiled at her a few times, and let her think about things. Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan spent an afternoon to finally shovel the road in the middle a little wider. Jiang Wanmu turned back to the room and wiped her body with a little warm water. As soon as she sorted out her clothes, Ji Yan crashed directly into the room and said to Jiang Wanmu: "Miss, your wedding dress, you still have to take the initiative to talk to Aunt Wang about the style." ”

Jiang Wanmu stretched out her hand to pat her, looked at her and said, "Don't bother talking, the people in the needlework room already know my wedding dress and what style of dress to make." She just wanted to see how I reacted to the wedding dress. You coped with it very well, and after you finished the New Year, every ten days and a half months, you went to the sewing room and walked around, without talking. Ji Yan said 'ah', looked at Jiang Wanmu and said, "So they will make your wedding dress well?" ”

Jiang Wanmu chuckled and shook her head and said, "No, this can prove that your young lady is still a nerd, and she is still waiting to find out the style of that wedding dress." I can only be a nerd in the Jiang family in order to live safely. Ji Yan looked at Jiang Wanmu and nodded, "Although I can't fully understand what Miss means, I listen to Miss." (To be continued.)
