Reborn as a paranoid regent's sweetheart

Chapter 134 Nightmare
Knowing that the concubine wanted to hand it over, the steward hurriedly asked someone to count the number of people in the mansion again, as well as the size of each person's clothes, all of which were recorded in the notebook, and only waited for the concubine to order the decision.

Shen Xi felt a little ashamed to see the butler working so hard.

It seems that everyone is busier than her...

So she paid a little attention to this matter, and called Si Shangyi from the Shangyi Bureau early in the morning to discuss with her about Xia Yi.

Shen Xi didn't know much about these things, so she asked, "According to the past, how many sets should one person cut?"

Si Shangyi replied respectfully: "Going back to your mother, the servants in the mansion have four sets of summer clothes and autumn clothes over the years, three sets of winter clothes and three sets of spring clothes; His Royal Highness the Regent has three sets of court clothes, five sets of formal clothes, and ten sets of regular clothes." , Three sets of court clothes for the concubine, seven sets of dresses, ten sets of ordinary clothes, seven sets of ordinary clothes for Concubine Wen, and two sets of dresses."

Shen Xi listened with a big head: "Then follow the previous years, there is no need to change it."

"Yes, empress." Si Shangyi handed a picture album to Shen Xi: "Empress, this is a style that has become popular in recent years. The first seven pages are the styles that are more popular this year. Please have a look."

Shen Xi rummaged through it, and finally picked out seven sets that he liked. There is no need to worry about court clothes, and it is really troublesome to choose the other ones.

If the choice is not good-looking, the people and servants in the mansion will dislike her eyes again.

It's just that Shen Xi's eyes are dazzled by the clothes. The first-class maids, the second-class maids, and the third-class maids wear different clothes, and there are all kinds of managers, and their clothes are also different. When they come and go, Shen Xi To pick out dozens of sets of clothes.

Seeing that Shen Xi's head was getting big, Shuqin took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, why don't you give a copy of this picture album to Concubine Wen? I must know what kind of clothes she likes to wear."

"You're so right!" Shen Xi seemed to have thrown some hot potato: "Si Shangyi, do you have any more albums?"

"Of course there are." Si Shangyi quickly asked someone to bring out two picture albums and handed them to Shuqin.

After Shuqin took it, she sent someone to bring it to Wen's, and Shen Xi specially told her to choose better clothes, and also marked the material of the clothes.

Different styles of clothes need to use different materials, so as to present the most perfect appearance of the clothes. Therefore, for Shen Xi, it is much more convenient to get the clothes of the servants. It is simply a matter of picking up the clothes of her and Xiao Che. Dazzling.

Men’s clothes are different from women’s. The clothes can’t be too fancy. Simple styles are almost enough. But women’s clothes are different. The collars alone include chest-length, tube top, stand-up collars, round necks, and square collars. Collar, matching is even more varied, Shen Xi likes to look good, so the requirements are higher.

Wen's selection was very fast, and most of the selections were clothes from previous years, and the materials were only made by the Shangyi Bureau, which was a very smart choice.

Because she knew that Shen Xi would definitely not choose the previous style, and as a side concubine, she couldn't compete with Shen Xi, so she chose the previous style on purpose.

Fortunately, there were no ugly clothes in the album that Si Shangyi brought, so she just picked two at random.

Shen Xi had just picked out the clothes when Wen's album came back, and she was very satisfied when she saw that the two didn't pick out the same style of clothes.

As everyone knows, the album that Si Shangyi gave to the Wen family is different from that of Shen Xi. One is the concubine who is on the royal jade plate, and the other is made by an orphan girl who just came out of nowhere. Concubine side, how could it be possible to wear the same clothes?
Therefore, Wen's can be regarded as being smart, and she made her servants feel wronged for her, thinking that Shen Xi was overbearing and unreasonable for no reason.

After finalizing all the clothes, it was time to eat.

"How long will it take for these clothes to come out?" Shen Xi asked.

"If we follow the usual practice, it will take about a month." Si Shangyi said: "Because it's already a bit late this year, the lower officials will let the people below speed up to catch up."

"it is good."

Shen Xi thought to herself, this summer only lasts for three months, and now half a month has passed, and when the new clothes come out, it will only take a month and a half to wear, and dozens of people will be fine, but everyone in the mansion except There are about four or five guards on patrol. This expenditure is too high. Of course, the most important thing is waste.

So she asked: "Since they have new clothes to wear every year, what about the old clothes? How do you deal with them?"

Si Shangyi said: "In the past, they were all burned. Later, the prince thought it was too wasteful, so he changed it to make new clothes every two years. When the old clothes were no longer needed, they would be given to the poor people to wear. In this way, both Help those people and avoid waste.”

"I see."

Thinking about it this way, Shen Xi felt that it was nothing.

Although it is the clothes of servants, it is much better than the clothes worn by many poor people. Shen Xi was deeply touched by this when he went to the northwest last time.

"Okay, how much money do these clothes cost in total, I ask someone to go and count them."

Si Shangyi pondered for a while: "The money for the clothes of the lord and the empress are all allocated by the palace, and so is that of Concubine Wen, and the clothes of the servants in the mansion are usually half of the money from the palace, and half of the money from the palace. The expenses need to be carefully calculated by the next official back to the Shangyi Bureau to know."

"it is good."

As soon as she heard that the mansion did not need to pay for these clothes, Shen Xi felt extremely happy: "By the way, it's getting late, you should stay in the palace to eat."

Si Shangyi absolutely didn't dare: "Thank you, Madam, for your kindness, but the Shangyi Bureau has a lot of work, and the officials need to rush back to the Shangyi Bureau immediately, hand over these things to them, and rush out the clothes as soon as possible."

"Alright."

Seeing this, Shen Xi didn't want to keep her anymore.

Si Shangyi was sent away, and people from Zhenbao Division would come over in the afternoon, Shen Xi felt a headache just thinking about it.

She finally felt the pain of some housekeepers.

When Wu Sizhen came, she basically reenacted what happened in the morning. Fortunately, she didn't have to pay for it herself, and the jewelry was not as cumbersome as the clothes. Shen Xi was very happy with the selection.

At night, Xiao Che returned to Tingfengyuan, saw Shen Xi who was already fast asleep, and couldn't help shaking his head.

This is just the beginning.

Shen Xi's sleeping appearance is very bad. When Xiao Che is around, she always cuddles Xiao Che to sleep. When Xiao Che is not around, she sleeps with her pillow in her arms. Her little head rests on the pillow, and half of her face is squeezed out by the pillow. She was fleshy, but half of her face was smooth.

I don't know what I dreamed of, a small face was wrinkled in sleep, and her delicate eyebrows were tightly knit together, as if very unhappy.

Indeed, she is very unhappy now.

Either she doesn't have nightmares, or if she has nightmares, it must be related to her previous life.

This time it was another memory that she had no impression of, presumably it should be a memory of her first life.
