18. Make clothes

The car stopped at the door of the Wu Mansion, the maid opened the door, and Chu Yue went in alone. Specially picked everyone's rest time, I didn't see everyone in the Wu family, I was relieved, and silently went upstairs to wash and go to sleep.

"Liuyue, why is this time more than last time, don't go home for two days, look at Anshi, there is a lady like you." Chu Lianqing stared at Chu Yuedao as if she was looking at something dirty.

"I avoided last night, and I still can't beat it this morning!" Chu Yue sighed silently in her heart. But she still didn't plan to ignore the brainless Chu Mu, Chu Yue continued to eat with her head down, silently reciting in her heart, "A knife on the head of the word forbearance, a knife on the head of the word forbearance......"

Looking at Chu Yue, who was ignoring herself, Chu Lianqing just wanted to have a seizure, but when she received Wu Junshan's eyes, she put away her hideous look and ate quietly.

"Liuyue! What's going on this time? My father spent so much money to let you go to the best church school, just to marry you to a good family, not to let you play," Wu Junshan said with a heartbroken tone on his old father's face.

Chu Yue swallowed the food in her mouth, and then replied lightly: "Father, I don't want to, but if you want me to accompany her, I can't shirk it." By the way, she is the most favored daughter of the director of the city's shipping department, and her uncle is a high-ranking officer/officer of the army/team in Shangyuan City. Besides, as an apology for delaying my studies, Wakasa also gave me a lot of gifts," he said, raising his hand to show the bracelet on his wrist and the hair ornament on his head.

When Wu Junshan heard this, he immediately changed his tone: "Liuyue did the right thing, the love of classmates is the most pure and rare, and you have to get along well." In the future, if Miss Sima needs you to accompany her to play, just go, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't have time to call home. Maybe Miss Sima can take you to the banquet of the upper class, and when the time comes, you need to buy clothes and jewelry, return gifts or something, tell your father directly. ”

"Well, thank you, father." Chu Yue just nodded lightly and said, "Father, I'm going to school, so I'll leave first." ”

"Okay, stay safe"

Taking the tram, Chu Yue went all the way to the school smoothly. Seeing the energetic students on campus, the mood is finally not so bad.

"Yueyue, it's good that you're also coming to school today." Shen Yun said excitedly.

Sima Ruo stepped forward and hugged Chu Yue suddenly, choked up, "It's okay if you're okay!" ”

Chu Yue said with a smile on her face: "Don't look at who Miss Ben is, Miss Ben is a divine beast in the town, invulnerable, invulnerable." ”

"Puff"

"Puff"

"When did you come to school," Chu Yue asked.

"Yueyue, we really know a little bit about each other, Yunyun and I just came to school today," Sima Ruoqian said with a look of surprise.

"Tsk, then why don't you hurry up and preview the textbook, and if you can't keep up with the teacher's progress later, Miss Ben won't help make up the class!" Chu Yue teased.

"Hmph, bad guy, ignore you" Sima Ruo returned to his seat with a shallow hum and took out his textbook to read.

"You!" Shen Yun smiled and took out the textbook and read it.

When the school bell rang, Sima Ruoqian immediately jumped up from his seat and hugged Chu Yue's neck, "Yueyue, you have to save us, we have been missing classes for a few days, and today's homework is so difficult for us." ”

"Ahem, if you don't let go, your dear Yueyue will be strangled to death by you" Chu Yue looked at Sima Ruo who was hanging around her neck with a speechless face and said.

Sima Ruoqian looked sneered, pinched his ears with both hands and said flatteringly: "I was wrong, Xiao Yueyue, I haven't been to school for a few days, I was a little too excited for a while, Yueyue, you will definitely forgive me!" ”

"Okay, which ones won't, you say one by one, you can go back later on Friday, if you don't finish teaching today, make an appointment with a café tomorrow afternoon, and then teach you."

"Yueyue, sometimes I'm really curious about your upbringing, you can do everything, even the textbooks are better than the teacher's, what you can't do." Shen Yun said suspiciously.

"Miss Ben will have more than you can imagine, waiting for you to discover it slowly. Come, little girls, Teacher Chu has started a class for you, be serious and listen carefully. After speaking, Chu Yue put away her playful expression and explained seriously.

After putting away the textbooks, Chu Yue led the two of them out of school.

"Girls, come back to your senses, don't look like you've been ravaged by society. Next week's craft class, have you figured out what to do?"

Shen Yun cheered up and said excitedly: "I want to embroider a handkerchief and give it to Yueyue, my craftsmanship is my mother's true inheritance, authentic Su embroidery." ”

Chu Yue raised her eyebrows with interest and said, "The legendary double-sided embroidery, will it?" ”

"Uh, Yueyue, this difficulty is a bit high, next time, next time, will I embroider a one-sided one for you this time" Shen Yun said with rare embarrassment.

Sima Ruo on the side of "Puff" was happy, "Yunyun, let you snatch the position of Miss Ben's first baby in Yueyue's heart, this is embarrassing!" ”

When Shen Yun heard this, his face was a little uncomfortable, and he immediately started a fight with Sima Ruoqian, and he didn't stop playing until he walked to the snack bar.

"Boss, come to three bowls of Yangchun noodles, remember to add an egg" Chu Yue said to the boss.

Shen Yun took advantage of the gap between the boss's cooking noodles and said: "Yueyue, what pattern do you want for the handkerchief, do you have any favorite flowers or animals?"

After thinking about it, Chu Yue said in a trance: "I'll spend a few small animal patterns on the weekend, and you pick a pattern to embroider." ”

Sima Ruoqian said worriedly: "Yueyue, I don't know anything, what should I do?" ”

Shen Yun and Chu Yue both stretched out their hands and rubbed their hands on her head at the same time, "Then you can just be a good baby", after speaking, the two of them stopped at the same time. was so angry that Sima Ruoqian screamed in place alone.

"Yueyue, what are you going to do next week?" Shen Yundao.

"It's very cute to be a little doll, you'll know it then," Chu Yue said mysteriously.

"Let's go home early after eating noodles! Otherwise, the family should be worried," Shen Yun said.

"Hmm" Sima Ruoqian thought about the battle of wits and courage with A-Niang and Dad yesterday, and also felt that he had to behave a little more recently.

"See you at Sequoia Cafe tomorrow afternoon, you guys stay safe." Chu Yue waved her hand and said goodbye.

The next morning, the master of Zhang Ji's tailor shop took his apprentices to the Wu Mansion and tailored the wives and young masters of the Wu family.

"Mrs., young master, young lady, these are the fabrics in the shop, you can choose the clothes first, measure the size and make clothes for you as soon as you return to the store."

Dong Shirou was choosing the materials while chatting with the tailor: "Master Zhang, business has been good recently!" ”

"Thanks to the wives, young masters, and young ladies, the business is still passable," Master Zhang said with a flattering face.

In order to swear sovereignty, Chu Lianqing spoke: "Recently, the ladies and ladies in the city have made new styles of clothes? ”

"Recently, everyone likes to make new-style cheongsam, some like Su Pai, and some like Shanghai Pai. Fashionable young girls prefer Shanghainese. ”

"I still prefer Su Pai, which shows my temperament even more. The ladies are all big girls, and their cheongsams are all made into Shanghai-style, and I ask Master Zhang to bother more," Chu Lianqing said with a gentle face.

"Yes, ma'am," Master Zhang replied.

"Master Zhang, I like this printed satin material with a crimson pomegranate pattern, made into a Shanghai style, it looks like I'm young, and the master likes it." Dong Shirou said with a smile on her face.

This sentence was a one-hit kill, which made Chu Lianqing's face change again and again, and she was so angry that she couldn't say anything.

"You, you ......"

Master Zhang, who was afraid of the two fighting, immediately replied loudly, "Okay, madam", implying that the two still have outsiders present. Then Master Zhang said to the little apprentice next to him: "Xiao Wang, have the wives' orders been registered?" ”

The little apprentice next to him was also clever, and immediately responded: "Ladies, young masters, young masters, young lady's sizes have been registered, and only the materials and styles are left." ”

"Then don't give the cloth samples to the young masters, young ladies to choose. There are also new embroidery patterns and printing styles to introduce to Mrs. ”

"Yes, master"

Seeing that the two wives did not fight, Master Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and kept roaring in his heart: In these years, it is difficult to do business, and it is even more difficult to do women's business. I just want to be my tailor in peace, and the gossip is small, and it's a big deal if I don't make any money!

Chu Lianqing, who calmed down, glanced at Dong Shirou and no longer bothered with her, not wanting outsiders to see the jokes anymore, so she was angry when the old man knew, so she went upstairs by herself.

Dong Shirou looked at Chu Lianqing who was leaving, and snorted coldly in her heart: Stupid woman, when did you win the battle against Mrs. Ben. If it weren't for my cousin saying that it was still useful to keep you, I would have killed you a long time ago.

Turning her head, Dong Shirou said with a serious face: "Master Zhang, I believe you know what to say and what not to say, right?" ”

Master Zhang immediately smiled flatteringly, and replied: "Little Lao'er just came to the wife of the Wu Mansion today, the young master, and the ladies came to tailor, did anything happen?" ”

Hearing the satisfactory answer, Dong Shirou immediately said kindly: "Well, don't worry, the young ladies are getting older, and there are more opportunities to go out as guests, and they will definitely visit Zhang Ji often." ”

"Thank you for your care, Xiao Lao'er must give priority to the clothes of the Wu Mansion." Master Zhang said with a grateful face.

It wasn't until he was far away from the Wu Mansion that the apprentice Xiao Wang asked Master Zhang with a curious face: "Master, what kind of wife did you ...... just now?"

After looking back and forth, Master Zhang whispered to his apprentice: "That family! It's hard to put into words! The former head of the Chu family was a good person, but unfortunately he gave birth to a daughter who was not angry. Not only was all the family property occupied by the son-in-law, but the daughter's life was not like a wife, and the concubine was not like a concubine. Alas......"

"Master, you mean the Wu Mansion ......," apprentice Xiao Wang exclaimed.

"You're looking for death, so loud" Master Zhang was so angry that he slapped the back of his apprentice's head twice before continuing: "It's also a pity for the little lady of the Chu family, who should have grown up with gold and dignity." I heard that I was just found recently, and I don't know how much suffering I have suffered. ”

"Master, is this true?"

"Little rabbit, what's the good of the master lying to you? So if you have a daughter, you must teach it well, and don't teach it like the eldest lady of the Chu family. Even if you want to recruit a lot, you must keep your eyes open and look for it, and test it many times, in case you recruit a white-eyed wolf, it will harm the whole family. Master Zhang said with a sigh on his face.

"Master rest assured, the apprentice will definitely give birth to a big fat apprentice grandson for you, even if you only give birth to a daughter in the end, you will definitely let her marry off, and she will not have the opportunity to harm the whole family."

Master Zhang scolded the apprentice with a smile: "Ahh The most important thing to do in our line of work is to keep your mouth tight, so when you go back, keep your mouth shut for me, otherwise Lao Tzu won't be able to get around you. ”

The apprentice Xiao Wang touched the back of his head, nodded with a smile, and followed the master away.
