The past life is cold and the present life is warm

Chapter 15 Dress Up
But at that time, she never cared about firewood, rice, oil, salt, or silk and satin.So she, a maid, never thought about such good jewelry and fabrics.And how much are these things worth?Then it is even more unknown.

She sat here and carefully looked at Danmei who was kneeling in the light.Didn't listen to what she was saying at all.

And after Danmei finished speaking, she waited for a while, and found that Su Wanqiu didn't respond to any doubts.Just as she was about to secretly raise her head to see what happened, she suddenly heard Wan Qiu's voice from above her head.

Su Wanqiu stared at Danmei's hairpin and said, "Although it is a wooden hairpin, it is a magnolia hairpin pinched with silver threads. I wonder how much silver this hairpin costs."

Hearing this, Danmei trembled, a little confused.She never thought that Su Wanqiu would ask this question.She didn't know how to answer.

Su Wanqiu slowly squatted down in front of Danmei again.Gently lifted up Danmei's skirt, groped in her hands, and said, "The skirt is made of silk, and flowers are embroidered with brocade thread of the same color. The ladies of ordinary families are dressed like this. I don't know how much this dress is worth." Are you short of money?"

Danmei panicked and Miss never cared about these things.Moreover, the young lady specially reminded herself before that she should keep a low profile even when she got dressed.Why are you asking these questions today?

She was a little nervous, and forced out a stiff smile and said: "Little Miss, I don't know how much silver taels I want. I don't know if Miss knows. This, this is also given to me by others. He said it is not worth a few dollars." Money."

Su Wanqiu casually pulled a futon beside her and changed from squatting to sitting.Sitting cross-legged in front of Danmei, she smiled and said, "You know me too. I don't know much about these things. But I can figure it out. The quality of this silver is good, and the amount used is enough to count as three taels of silver. The material of this magnolia looks pretty good, even if it is a bit small, at least one or two taels. It costs five or six renminbi. In addition to the filigree craftsmanship and magnolia carving, it will cost at least one or two liang. Calculated, this hairpin will cost at least seven or eight liang of silver."

Speaking of this, Su Wanqiu paused for a moment, looking at Dan Mei's distorted face due to panic.I kept sneering in my heart.Then he said: "The clothes are ordinary silk. Your clothes, because they are in the style of the mansion, you must have chosen the material and let the store make them to order. So it can't be calculated according to the cloth, and it must be commonly used in our mansion." Shopkeeper, I can't tell you what is good, so I can't calculate it based on the market price. It's just that the cloth and clothes are about three or four taels. But your embroidery thread is all good. I guess the handwork and thread will cost three or four taels Now, the store above will definitely not give you any more benefits. This piece of clothing will probably cost seven or eight taels. If it is calculated according to the market price, it will cost at least ten taels of silver."

"But I'm just guessing whether it's true or not, so it's hard to say."

Danmei Ganxiao said twice: "Miss said yes, so be it. I didn't know that just a piece of clothing and a hairpin are so valuable. It seems that I'd better give it back to him." What I thought in my heart was that this girl guessed so accurate

Su Wanqiu shook her head: "Then it's really hard for you to give up. This is completely customized according to your figure. How to let others wear it. And the person who gave you the things is also strangely tight. Instead of giving you some ordinary clothes, they actually gave them to our house The servant girl’s uniform. So it’s from our house, right? Tell me who gave it to you.”

At this moment, she really wanted to say whoever she wanted.But she knew that this mansion would spend so much money at once, except for a family child like Tourmaline.Others really may not be able to come up with so much money at once.

She can't say that the twenty taels of silver are actually the money you asked me to buy the script, right?She didn't know how to lie for a while.

Su Wanqiu said in surprise, "Could it be that you made it yourself? But why make maid clothes after making clothes once. You can definitely make some beautiful clothes and wear them privately."

Danmei felt a little resentful that she had the opportunity to wear private clothes besides going out.And sometimes it is beneficial to serve the maids I serve in some of my own shops.So she doesn't even know how to wear private clothes.

And she just wanted to dress better and differently so as to attract the young master's attention.Let the young master feel that it is different for the young lady to take her.The young lady looked at her differently.Only in this way can she have a chance to make the young master feel good about her.

Danmei was thinking about Su Wanqiu and pretended to be surprised and said: "Could it be that you want to show someone in our house that you wear it like this. It's not for someone in the house to show you?"

Danmei stared at Su Wanqiu and was stunned.She even had some doubts about whether Miss had the ability to read minds.As soon as she thought of Miss, she guessed.

And Su Wanqiu knew that she had guessed right when she saw Danmei's surprised expression.

In this big mansion in the past, except for going out to study, the elder brother who was not in the mansion all the year round.Then there is only the father.And my father is often away from the mansion all day.I really don't have any bad associations.So she never understood why her grandmother always felt that Dan Mei was behaving badly.

Now that I think about it, who is Danmei trying to attract the attention of this daintyly dressed lady with a handkerchief and a leftist lady?
"Why didn't you talk? Did I guess right?" Su Wanqiu tilted her head and said with a smile, "If you don't answer, let me continue to guess. Could it be whose bed you want to climb? My father's? Or My brother's?"

Hearing this, Danmei was startled: "Little... miss, don't talk nonsense, I... slave... I have never thought of climbing into the young master's bed or the master's bed."

Su Wanqiu understood, it seemed that it belonged to her brother.But because her elder brother has been away and has not returned, and she has to accompany her to the Duke's mansion as a dowry.So she set her sights higher.And in the end, it was quite ambitious to be successful.

Su Wanqiu sneered and stood up and looked at Danmei condescendingly: "I didn't expect you to have such a hobby all the time. In the past, I never thought much about your well-dressed clothes. When my brother was in the house, you often went to the front yard , I keep seeing you and Tourmaline as close as sisters. It’s just that you and Tourmaline’s elder brother see each other right.”

"I thought that you were almost 15 years old, and I was too young to say goodbye to you. I wanted to ask my grandmother to fulfill your love. It's just that I never thought that you were not interested in Tourmaline's brother but my brother. "

Feeling that the atmosphere was not right after being called, Tourmaline, who had been standing there quietly, suddenly called out: "No wonder, no wonder you always struggled to deliver things for me before. I was too lazy to run errands for my mother and let you go. Didn't expect you to have such ambitions?"

After finishing speaking, he muttered to himself: "I'm also curious where she got so much money from? Huh? You didn't mean to steal my mother's silver taels while delivering things to my brother for me, did you?"

Danmei really wanted to spit on Tourmaline at this time, what was she doing jumping out at this time.It's not that I don't have money, so why steal her family's money.And the little money prepared by her family is not enough for her outfit.

But she couldn't tell where the money came from.She didn't want to expose her brother's plan to ruin him.But if she is not by this girl's side, the plan cannot go smoothly.Well, just take a gamble.
