Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 103 Winter Clothes (2)

The old woman bowed her body forward, ready to measure Shen Yuechen's waist first, before the ruler was put on, she knew it by heart, at most it was only one foot six.

People like them who rely on handcrafts to eat have the most unique vision. They don't need a tape measure, and they can often see the size of the customer at a glance.

Shen Yuechen has a slender figure and a fair complexion, so it's good to just pick up a piece of material and put it on.

The Guan boss looked at the old lady with a smile and said: "The eldest young mistress is naturally beautiful and graceful, and all these materials are suitable for her. Why don't the old lady keep them. If you let those seductive wives with heavy makeup outside have to go, it will be in vain." Such a good thing wasted."

Hearing this, the old lady smiled slowly: "You have five liang of silver for one zhang. If you keep all of it, you still have to ask for this amount." After she finished speaking, she stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of him.

When Boss Guan heard this, he frowned slightly: "Oh, my old lady, it's the good fortune of these materials that you like the materials of the old body. Not to mention how much it is worth, as long as the old lady and wives I like it, so I will stay here today, and treat you as my old bone.”

The old lady frowned slightly, "It's a pity that you are an old bone, and your mouth is still so sweet."

Boss Guan cupped his hands and said: "Old lady, you are the food and clothing parents of my big family. As a son, you should be respectful and respectful in front of your parents, that's what you should do."

Li Shi was amused by his words, hurriedly walked up to the old lady, bent over and said with a smile: "Old lady, when did you recognize such a sweet-mouthed old godson?"

Boss Guan said with a smile: "Second Madam is very funny. If the old lady does not dislike the humbleness of her old body, and really accepts me as her godson, it will be the good luck of our whole family."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was overjoyed, only Shen Yuechen smiled silently as he lowered his head and played with the handkerchief.

The old lady gave him a half-angry, half-angry look: "Slick tongue, I think, your age is useless." After finishing speaking, she looked at him carefully again, and finally decided to keep only the former The selected ones, "Although the material is good, there are new styles every season. Keep these few good ones. If there are any new products later, you can just send them over."

Boss Guan hurriedly responded, and instantly calculated the price in his mind.He calculated clearly, Yang Ma calculated even more clearly in her heart, she turned around and went back to the inner room, took Yao's, opened the box, took out the right bank note, and handed it neatly to Boss Guan.

Seeing this, Boss Guan was overjoyed, but said: "How can this be done?"

The old lady smiled faintly: "You are an old bone, I have no reason to take advantage of you, I can take as much money as I want. Take the remaining fractions back to buy buns for your little monkey cubs to eat. "

Boss Guan made a deep bow when he heard the words, "The old lady is kind, and I kowtow to the old lady on behalf of the whole family." After speaking, he knelt down slowly on the ground and kowtowed heavily to the old lady.

The old lady accepted it with a smile, and then waved her hand to signal the woman behind him to help him up firmly.The material has been selected and the size has been measured. We only need to wait for the clothes to be ready before sending them to the mansion and trying them on and changing them.

After talking for a while, the old lady became a little tired and was going back to take a nap.

Li Shi and Chai Shi got up to say goodbye, only Shen Yuechen was left behind, and said softly: "You accompany the old lady back to the room and take good care of her."

Shen Yuechen was blessed, and then helped the old lady up with a smile, walked through the hall, and went to the corridor at the back.

The old lady left her to take a nap, Shen Yuechen couldn't refuse, so he took off his hairpin, washed off his makeup, and lay down next to her.

Shen Yuechen doesn't usually have the habit of taking a nap, but only occasionally when he is extremely tired, he will lie down and take a rest.Now, lying beside the old lady, she couldn't sleep any more, and could only silently count the sheep in her heart.

When she counted to 520, she opened her eyes and saw that the old lady was fast asleep, so she carefully sat up.

As soon as she got out of bed, the maid standing in the room greeted her lightly, without saying a word, she just knelt down, put on the embroidered shoes for her, and then helped her to go outside.

When she arrived in the outer room, a maid immediately came to clean her face with warm face wash water.

The big maids in the old lady's room are all very graceful and delicate people, one named Jinsuo, one named Yinsuo, and one named Miaoyu, who was the best at combing hair.

After Shen Yuechen wiped her face, washed her hands, and rinsed her mouth, Miaoyu brought a wooden comb to the mirror, and slowly combed her long hair into a bun.

After Shen Yuechen dressed properly, she whispered a few words about Jinsuo and Silversuo, and then went back to her west courtyard. Coincidentally, Zhu Jintang had just come back and was sitting in the room drinking tea.

"Master, why did you come back so early today?"

Zhu Jintang had just sat down to have tea, and saw that she had returned, and the bun on her head was slightly different from when she woke up in the morning, so he asked, "Where have you been?"

Shen Yuechen smiled slightly: "Boss Guan from Jixiang Silk and Satin Shop sent someone to send some material to make winter clothes, and the old lady asked me to go and have a look. After looking at the material, the concubine personally took care of the old lady to go back to take a nap. I left my concubine to rest together."

Zhu Jintang frowned when he heard the words Mr. Guan, and said, "Oh, it turned out that the old greedy cat came to ask for money again."

Seeing that he seemed displeased, Shen Yuechen was a little puzzled and said, "Old Greedy Cat? This nickname is really funny."

Zhu Jintang said indifferently: "Since you have met him, you should have seen his sloppy tongue. His craftsmanship is indeed good, but it is not as good as his eloquence."

Shen Yuechen lowered his head when he heard the words, "Boss Guan is eloquent and eloquent. It's no wonder he's a man of his age, and it's really not easy to make the old lady smile."

Zhu Jintang shook his head with a half-smile: "He wasn't like that at first. He was just an honest craftsman, he couldn't even say a word of entertainment when he met people and things, and he was very stupid. Later, because of us The promotion of Zhu's family has attracted more and more customers in the city, and the business is getting better and better, and it has gradually gained some fame. Many women's family members of big families have sent invitations to ask him to come to make clothes. Those who go in and out, didn't learn anything else, but learned a lot of flattery."

After Shen Yuechen heard this, she knew that Zhu Jintang had a bad impression of this person, so she said with a smile: "It's hard to buy a smile with a thousand dollars, and it's rare for an old lady to be happy. Besides, Master Guan's craftsmanship is not bad." As the saying goes, money can make ghosts push grind.How difficult can it be to turn a stupid person into a glib person?

Zhu Jintang glanced at her, and said: "It's rare to hear you say such a thing, it's not easy."

Shen Yuechen was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, as if there was something in his words.

Zhu Jintang took a sip of tea, raised his finger to point to the baggage on the table, and said, "This is the gift that my aunt asked me to bring back for you when I went to the capital. Open it and have a look?"

Shen Yuechen was a little surprised, and hurriedly got up to answer, only to feel that the bundle felt soft to the touch. When she opened it, she found that it was wrapped in an ermine fur coat. The fur was shiny and white, and it felt soft and soft Thin, smooth and soft.

Shen Yuechen let out a soft cry, and an expression of surprise appeared on his face.

Seeing her dazed look, Zhu Jintang immediately stood up, raised his hand and put the coat directly on her body, covering her whole body, only showing a face the size of a palm.

"Come on, let me see."

Shen Yuechen's expression was twisted, her face was flushed, she couldn't help but raised her head and scolded him: "Master, why are you wrapping me up like a rice dumpling?"

Her small face was originally clean and elegant, but now her cheeks were blushing, and wearing such a white dress as snow made the blush on her cheeks even more obvious, looking like delicate flower buds, making her feel People fall in love.

Hearing this, Zhu Jintang raised the corners of his mouth into a smile, simply stretched out his hand to wrap her up tighter, and brought her along with him along the way.

"Master!" Shen Yuechen stared at him in embarrassment, sweating on his temples for a moment, and said in a coquettish tone: "It's too hot, I'm sweating."

Looking at her flushed face, Zhu Jintang smiled slightly, and slowly put down his hands.

Shen Yuechen took off his coat, took a deep breath, and quickly folded it up carefully, for fear of accidentally getting it dirty.

Zhu Jintang looked at her profile and asked, "Do you like it?"

"I like it." Shen Yuechen nodded heavily, walked up to Zhu Jintang, bit her lips and said, "Eldest aunt usually works hard, and even bothers to prepare gifts for me..." She paused for a while, and said: "My concubine I am really grateful, and when I have the opportunity, I must thank her in person.”

Zhu Jintang nodded slightly, "Okay, next time I have a chance, I will take you to the capital together."

Shen Yuechen was a little surprised, unexpectedly, Zhu Jintang would say that, and asked in confirmation: "Really?"

Seeing her dubious expression, Zhu Jintang frowned slightly and said, "Of course, I always keep my word."

He would go to the capital at least three or four times a year, and take her with him when he had free time, which could be regarded as leading her out to see the world.

Shen Yuechen was overjoyed when he heard the words, and smiled a little embarrassedly.

The sky dimmed a little bit.

After dinner, Zhu Jintang went to the upper room to play chess with the old man.Shen Yuechen didn't go with her, she was still sitting in the room, leading Mama Wu and Cuixin to choose the fabrics to send to the aunts in each room.

Because it is a common practice to make winter clothes, there are corresponding orders in each room. The pattern and color of the material are slightly different, but the price is the same. Send it to Sun's place.She is pregnant now, since she wants to choose the best one for her.As for Cao's, they also got two bolts of new cloth with nice colors and patterns.As for the Qin family, like the Wang family and Liu family, they each got a new bolt of cloth, and they had no choice or choice.

Shen Yuechen did this on purpose, of course, he wanted to deliberately scare her off and make her feel more troubled.

Sure enough, not as she expected.As soon as Qin Taoxi saw the new cloth, she immediately asked Lan Hua to get the scissors, and then cut the cloth Shen Yuechen sent into strips.Just moving the scissors was not enough to calm her down. In the end, she tore it up with her hands, and along the gap, tore the whole cloth into pieces.
