The medical concubine devoured the world

Chapter 108 Investigate the news
They were a little puzzled, and the more they walked in, the more they understood.

The line lined up straight to the door of the hot pot restaurant, each holding a beige note with a number written on it.

The news that the hot pot restaurant is about to open has long been released, and these people are all waiting in line to eat hot pot.

The three of them walked into the hot pot restaurant with smiles on their faces.

“One more salty soy milk and fritters!”

"One meatball, one lamb!"

"Add soup!"

Although eating hot pot in the early morning is a bit out of time, nothing can stop these gourmets' enthusiasm for hot pot.

The guys in the store were too busy, so three people went over to help run the hall.

Miss Qianjin and the current county master had no air at all, everyone was sweating profusely, and the makeup on their faces was a bit smudged.

After all the guests had eaten, they finally had some free time.

It was almost noon, the shopkeeper asked the three of them to wait in the box, and he would serve them hot pot.

The three of them left the hot pot restaurant after a brief meal.

Before leaving, Meng Siyin explained to the shopkeeper.

"Let's estimate how many guests we can pick up today and how much time it will take. You can let everyone go home and rest first, and then come back when the number is almost up."

The shopkeeper nodded, and then went to work again.

The three of them left the hot pot restaurant and went straight to the tailor's house.

Zhao Lan walked ahead and led the two to an alley.

The round arch made of blue bricks is so low that you can only bend over.

The walls are densely covered with moss, and all around are wet, showing the dampness of the house.

The three walked in and saw the master of the knitting workshop mentioned by Zhao Lan.

"The county master? Why did you come to my poor house? Oh, the road is not easy to walk!"

The master greeted Zhao Lan kindly when he saw Zhao Lan, then nodded to Meng Siyin and Chu Baozhu behind him, and led them into the house.

The interior of the house is even more rudimentary. Two wooden chairs are placed beside the wooden table. Judging by the roughness, one can vaguely guess that they were beaten by hand.

A wooden bed, in addition to the basic furniture, there are only four or five pots of orchids in the house, growing freely and freely.

Some of Meng Siyin's expectations were unexpected. It is said that this master came out of the palace, and there are always young ladies who come to her to make clothes, which should not be so simple.

"Please do it, please don't dislike it, there are not enough chairs, just sit on the bed."

Zhao Lan sat down on the bed with the master very familiarly.

"How are you feeling lately? Why haven't you seen those children?"

Meng Siyin and Chu Baozhu sat down cautiously, and when they heard Zhao Lan's words, they had some doubts.

"children?"

Zhao Lan nodded with a smile. She told the two that after the master came out of the palace, he came to this house, and later adopted many orphans. All the gold and silver in the family was used to support these orphaned children. .

This makes sense.

After listening to this, the two admired the master very much.

Just as he was talking, a group of children ran in.

"Mother Qin, Mama Qin, the teacher in the school said that there is something in the afternoon, and we will be given a half-day leave!"

Three little boys about five or six years old and four little girls who were seven or eight years old ran in one after another.

The clothes on the children are simple cotton clothes. Although the style is simple, it looks very comfortable.

Their whole body was clean, and they saluted respectfully when they saw guests at home. They didn't look like orphans at all. It could be seen that Qin's mother taught them well.

"Invite the three sisters to have tea."

It seemed that the eldest little girl came in with a white porcelain pot, poured them tea, and took the other children out to play.

Qin's mother looked at them with a relieved smile.

"The princess, are you looking for me to order a few more clothes?"

Qin's mother looked at Zhao Lan, and then looked at the two people on the chair.

"No, I want to ask you something else."

Zhao Lan looked at Meng Siyin.

"Siyin, tell me!"

Meng Siyin nodded, she put the cup on the table, and bowed to Qin's mother.

"Mother Qin, it's like this. I want to open a ready-to-wear store. Now all the ready-to-wear stores on the market have to make tailor-made clothes, and they have to wait for a few days. It can be as short as three or five days, or as long as a few months."

Qin's mother nodded slightly and motioned her to continue.

"I want to open a real ready-to-wear store and make clothes of different sizes according to everyone's weight. For example, the smallest size can be from [-] to [-] pounds, and so on. Do you think it is feasible?"

There are many children playing in the stone gate, and the innocent scene has an inexplicable beauty with this wooden house.

inside the house.

Meng Siyin is telling Qin's mother what she thinks.

After listening to Qin's mother, she hesitated, and she slowly said:
"After dividing into yards, the clothes will not be close to the body."

Meng Siyin understood what she meant, and she explained:

"Yes, it is to have a slightly loose feeling, which is mainly for convenience, relaxation and comfort."

Qin's mother understood, she thought about it, and said to Meng Siyin:

"I see, so what do you want me to help you with?"

Not sloppy, clean and neat, worthy of being someone who has stayed in the palace.

Meng Siyin sighed in her heart, she expressed her intentions.

"You don't need to worry about this size issue. I would like to ask you to help design the style of the clothes. The styles on the market today are not suitable for making clothes of this size."

Qin's mother asked her what she wanted.

"I hope it won't be as cumbersome as it is now. Let's change from four or five to two or three, and it will be much lighter."

She said these words with trepidation, wondering if she would be regarded as a lunatic.

Seeing that Qin's mother frowned, she was a little worried.

"This way, I'm afraid it's not in line with the rules. Since ancient times, women's clothes should be mainly to cover the body, and the main thing is to be light and comfortable, I'm afraid it's a little..."

Sure enough...

Meng Siyin stopped talking to Qin's mother.

After all, people who have stayed in the palace will naturally act vigorously and resolutely with their heads in their hands, but in the same way, the strict rules of the palace will always overwhelm people.

The other two were a little overwhelmed, Zhao Lan wanted to help Meng Siyin again, but Qin's mother came back with an unruly sentence.

It's better to settle for the next best thing.

Meng Siyin also asked if she could ask Qin's mother to style her clothes. It would be better to be simple and plain.

She doesn't give up.

Qin's mother nodded in agreement, then took a pen and paper from the study and sketched it.

During her drawing, the three lied that they did not want to be disturbed, so they left the wooden house and waited in the courtyard.

At this time, the children had gone out to play, and the three of them walked over and sat on the stone bench in the courtyard.

Chu Baozhu said in frustration:

"This Qin's mother is too rigid. She just tried to make some simple styles, but she used the words of being underdressed to pressure people!"

Zhao Lan also sighed. She felt that she couldn't help Meng Siyin and felt a little lost.

"After all, she is someone who has stayed in the palace, and she was seriously affected by the palace rules."
