playful peasant girl

Chapter 118 Prosperity 2
In this dynasty, it was most normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines with several concubines, not to mention princes and nobles, and even more wives and concubines.

In the anecdote revealed by the guy, there is not much information about the royal princes. We can only know that the four princes are still more favored than the other princes even though Emperor Yuanning favored his concubine and treacherous ministers. It was given to the unfavored sixth prince, but was later snatched away by the fourth prince.

The guy was a little dry talking, and finally said everything he knew, "Miss, I've said everything the villain knows, do you see?"

Xia Lan got up and left money for tea, "Qingmei, this show has changed again, it's not good, let's go."

The man looked at the silver on the table, and happily ran over to put it in his arms. The girl was only interested in watching the show, so she didn't listen to my gossip. Whatever it is, "Miss, go slowly, and come back next time."

It's still early, and the prosperity of the capital still needs to be appreciated slowly, so let's take a slow stroll first.

Cloth shop occupies a large part of Qingfu's main business. Although it was not found in the imperial capital, due to the inertia of merchants, Xia Lan's first choice was cloth shop.

Xia Lan entered a shop called Huashang Pavilion.This shop is a three-story building structure, and the decoration also looks very grand. There is ample space inside, and the light is relatively bright, with a good visual sense.

After Xia Lan entered, she could see that the cloths of various colors were neatly placed inside, and there were some ready-made clothes on the outside.

Take a closer look, those cloths include common muslin and silk brocades, and the colors are also very complicated, from bright colors to darker colors, plus the different colors, all of them look no less than the above. Hundreds of styles.

Looking at the ready-made clothes, the workmanship is not rough, although it can't be called meticulous, but the quality is not bad.There are also dozens of ready-to-wear styles.

These are far richer than the styles of cloth shops in the state capital.

A cloth man saw Xia Lan's master and servant coming to take care of her, "Miss, what do you need?"

Xia Lan pondered for a while, "I don't like the ready-to-wear clothes here, and I'm not satisfied with the quality. Is there anything better?"

The clerk led her to explain, "If you need more high-end clothes, you can go to the second floor to have a look, the clothes there are all high-quality goods."

Xia Lan followed to the second floor, where there were much fewer customers than on the first floor.

In terms of style, the clothes here are more novel than those on the first floor, and the fabrics are generally higher than those on the first floor. You can see the silk produced by several major silk-producing families in Suzhou here, as well as Jiangnan. There are embroidery from Sichuan, brocade from Shuzhou and so on.

Xia Lan picked out a pleated Ruyi skirt and an embroidered makeup skirt here. She originally wanted to buy a set of ready-made clothes for Haoxuan and Fengyang, but she couldn't grasp the size of Fengyang's clothes, so she only picked one for Haoxuan. A Confucian gown of moon silk with cloud patterns.

After paying the bill, Xia Lan asked the clerk, "Do you have Yunsi from Suzhou Huangfu's family and the fluorescent flowing gauze on the plug in your shop? Why didn't you see it?"

The three pieces of clothes that Xia Lan bought were not cheap, and the bills were relatively quick to pay, so the clerk did not dare to underestimate them, "Miss, the materials you mentioned are very expensive materials in our shop, and they are all on the third floor. with ".

"Then let's go to the third floor and have a look," Xia Lan said.
