Chapter 102: Patterns
On the first day of August, the shopkeeper Li and his family left Jiangjiaba.
A big ship, loaded with all that the Li family has had in Jiangjiaba for ten years.
The sisters of the Li family will probably not come back within three or two years after leaving Jiangjiaba, and the daughter-in-law of the Li shopkeeper will show the two school-age girls in Yangzhou, and the other two little girls are not too young, so they can also prepare in advance.
The Lu family sent all the dried goods pickled at home to the shopkeeper Li, as well as a stack of patterns painted by Lu Yangge.
There are two baskets full of things, which are prepared by the Lu family, as well as the intentions of the other families in the wild wharf.
The courtesy was light and affectionate, and the shopkeeper Li warmly received Lu Quan's father and son, and the daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Li specially called Lu Yangge to come in and talk.
When the four sisters of the Li family saw the tricks sent by the Lu family, the eyes of the three girls of the Li family, who were originally a little unhappy because Lu Xiaosi was called on the boat by their mother, lit up.
"Eldest sister and second sister, look at the patterns, I have never seen such beautiful patterns!"
Miss Li hurriedly looked over: "This can't be a trick bought in the capital." ”
Second Miss Li shook her head: "Definitely not, this paper is the cheapest kind in the Dong family bookstore, it's really a waste to use it to draw this pattern!" ”
Seeing that the three sisters each held a trick and couldn't put it down, the four girls of the Li family opened another customized book.
With just one glance, Miss Li Si's big eyes immediately widened, and even her small mouth opened slightly, and she let out an incredible exclamation: "This dress looks really good." ”
"What?"
When Miss Li heard that there were still clothes, she immediately squeezed over, "My mother-in-law, I'm afraid this dress is not worn by the fairy sister!" ”
The four girls of the Li family have been learning embroidery with their mothers since they were young, not to mention the three sisters, even the four girls of the Li family have been able to cut and sew a set of clothes by themselves at a young age.
The four sisters got this beautiful pattern and dress, which was very rare, and when they saw the four sisters of the Lu family getting off the boat, they were busy looking for their own mother-in-law to show off.
Shopkeeper Li's daughter-in-law has followed Shopkeeper Li in Jiangjiaba for several years, and she is not a woman who does not leave the door.
Looking at the ten patterns and ten dresses spread out in front of her, the daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Li was moved.
She still has some dowry in her hand, and she also bought two small shops in Yangzhou two years ago.
If she uses these patterns and dresses to open a ready-to-wear shop in Yangzhou, then hire some embroidery girls to embroider these dresses with this beautiful pattern, and produce a new dress style every month, these ten dress styles and ten patterns are enough for her to last for a year and a half.
With the new look of this year and a half, I will definitely be able to make the business of the ready-to-wear store.
When the shopkeeper Li sent the Lu family's father and son and the others to get off the boat and come back, they were called back to the boat room where they were resting by their wives and daughters.
Listening to his wife and daughter's thoughts, Shopkeeper Li only felt a sigh in his heart.
At that time, what did Lu Xiaosi say when he gave him these two very rough sewing books?
Yes, he said that these two books, one is a pattern and the other is a dress, which was given to several sisters of the Li family.
At that time, he didn't care about these patterns and the appearance of his dress, but now that he looks at it, he doesn't think Lu Xiaosi's words have a deep meaning!
"What does it mean?"
The daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Li saw that the shopkeeper Li was halfway through his words and didn't go on, and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that this pattern and dress can still be painted by the child of the fourth child of the Lu family?" ”
Shopkeeper Li twisted his short beard: "It is likely that it was painted by Lu Xiaosi." He also said at the time that this pattern is not very good, but the appearance of this dress is always changing, that is, there is an extra skirt, a few edges, or the collar is high and low. And ......"
"What else?" The daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Li asked anxiously.
She has been ingenious since she was a child, and she has followed her mother to work in the embroidery village since she was a child, although she is a child, she has also learned some craftsmanship from several masters.
Whether it's cutting clothes or embroidering, she can handle it.
Later, because of his age, he said that his mother-in-law's family did not go to the embroidery village to work.
If she wants to go back to Yangzhou to open a ready-to-wear shop, it is not impossible to find those aunts in the embroidery village back then.
Even if those aunts are like her mother, their eyes are not good, and those aunts always have daughters and daughters-in-law in their families.
As long as she wants to open a ready-to-wear shop, there is this way, and the craftsmen who can embroider and make clothes still don't have to worry.
Today, because the shopkeeper Li is leaving Jiangjiaba, in addition to the Lu family father and son, there are other shopkeepers who have opened a store in Jiangjiaba to do business.
He actually didn't say a few words to the Lu family's father and son, and because he was there, he was inevitably distracted when he spoke.
was asked by his daughter-in-law like this, and Shopkeeper Li couldn't remember what Lu Xiaosi said for a while.
When he sat down, flipped through the clothes sent by Lu Xiaosi, and picked up an eight-piece skirt, he barely remembered what Lu Xiaosi said at that time.
He also said that the current skirts are two or four pieces, and the style is a little too dignified. It's better to change it to eight pieces and twelve pieces, although it is more cumbersome to do, but the skirt is unfolded, overlapping and stacked like a blooming flower, how can it not look good. ”
The daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper Li looked at the eight-piece skirt in her hand in disbelief, and then imagined the appearance of the twelve-piece skirt in her mind, and for a while, she actually felt that she was not smart enough, and she couldn't even imagine what the eight-piece skirt would look like when it was made.
There is also the twelve-piece skirt that the Lu family Xiaosi said, which is simply what the girl said, the dress that only fairies can wear!
With the appearance of the dress sent by Lu Xiaosi, the Li family does not dislike being depressed when they are a boat.
Shopkeeper Li's daughter-in-law happily went to the cabin where the salute was placed, and asked Shopkeeper Li to turn out a few boxes and cages she had packed, find out Xinyi's fabric and start cutting.
She was going to make these eight dresses for her first dress, and she wanted to see what the dress the fairy wore looked like.
Shopkeeper Li saw that his wife and daughter were all around the two books, and the clothes and skirts were turning, and even he didn't have time to take care of them, so he couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
This woman, no matter how old or young she is, has no resistance to beautiful dresses.
When Shopkeeper Li knew that his daughter-in-law wanted to use the dowry silver he had accumulated for his daughters to open a ready-to-wear shop in Yangzhou, he not only did not object, but happily divided half of the money from the sale of Zhuangzi.
"Since you and I are going to open a shop, let's take half of the silver. Let's see if your ready-to-wear shop makes more money, or if my small restaurant business is better. ”“
"What if I earn more than you?" Shopkeeper Li's daughter-in-law asked with a smile.
Shopkeeper Li promised: "From then on, the money earned by this family will be in the care of the lady." ”
The young girl on the side hurriedly said: "Daddy, hasn't our family's silver always been in the hands of my mother?" ”
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Li couldn't help laughing: "The reason why I say this is to make your mother lose, so that I can return the right of the head of the family to your father!" ”
