BXBX NOVEL Chapter 7: this dress doesn't suit you
Li Shi and Shen Mingyao don\'t need to be mentioned, Shen Mingyao is purely jealous of Shen Mingjiao flying to the branches, while Li Shi feels uneasy in his heart because of some things he has done before.
Shen Mingyan\'s mind was in a mess, she couldn\'t figure out how things would turn out like this, the dress she gave Shen Mingjiao was indeed thinking of letting him and Su Qing fall into the water together.
She wanted Shen Mingjiao to follow in the footsteps of the original owner, Shen Mingyan, and enter the Su Palace as a decoration for the rest of her life.
But who can tell her, what about the infatuated male second? Why just now he looked at Shen Mingjiao with fiery eyes, as if he had never seen a woman in eight lifetimes!
Shen Mingjiao, who was sitting on one side, seemed to be completely ignorant of all this, focusing on playing with the black token in her hand. I wondered which shop to start with first.
…
Jinxiufang is the largest ready-to-wear shop in Beijing, which includes ready-to-wear, various fabrics, and accessories such as necklaces, collars, and sachets that match the clothes.
Shen Mingjiao casually glanced at the ready-made clothes hanging in the lobby, passed through a crowd of guests, and raised her feet to go up to the second floor. Haitang gently pulled her sleeves, and whispered:
"Girl, I heard that the clothes on the second floor are very expensive, we are almost out of money..."
Shen Mingjiao waved her hand indifferently, "It\'s okay, it doesn\'t cost money to have a look."
After she finished speaking, a woman sneered immediately behind her, Shen Mingjiao pretended not to hear it, and went straight to the second floor.
Compared with the lobby on the first floor, there are significantly fewer people on the second floor. After all, most of the people who can afford to go to the second floor are either rich or expensive.
Shen Mingjiao scanned the complicated and gorgeous dresses with great interest,
Pick up a round fan casually, on which flowers, birds, insects and fish are embroidered, not to mention lifelike embroidery, but when you turn it over, it turns out to be a rare double-sided embroidery.
But the price is also very impressive.
Haitang stared at the hand of her girl playing with the fan in fear, for fear that she would accidentally drop it on the ground, because they are really running out of money!
Seeing Shen Mingjiao turned around and asked: "How much money do we have left?"
Haitang had a bad feeling and stammered, "Four... forty taels."
Shen Mingjiao pondered slightly, and asked the female attendant on the side: "How do you sell this ball of fans?"
The female attendant smiled gently: "Thirty taels."
Haitang clicked her tongue secretly, this is too exaggerated! One must know that she only has one tael of silver a month!
Shen Mingjiao: "Wrap it up."
Haitang had a bitter face, "Girl, let\'s not agree to just look at it and not buy it?"
Shen Mingjiao: "Can women believe this when they go shopping?"
Finally, Shen Mingjiao pulled the listless Haitang out of Jinxiufang.
While passing the lobby, I passed a group of gorgeously dressed ladies.
She patted the little **** the shoulder, "Don\'t worry, with your girl here, we won\'t be hungry."
Haitang\'s eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized: "Young lady, what you mean is that Jinxiufang is the property of Prince Su\'s Mansion."
Shen Mingjiao: "Of course—"
"No." She pointed to the deserted and dilapidated three-story attic opposite. "That\'s the ready-to-wear shop under the name of Prince Su\'s Mansion."
Haitang: "..." Then what are you doing? Send money to the other party?
At this time in the lobby of Jinxiufang, Xu Ningyue asked the shopkeeper: "How many brocades are there in the store, I want them all."
The shopkeeper shook his head in embarrassment: "Miss Xu, this year\'s Liuyun brocade has been sold out."
Xu Ningyue frowned, and wanted to say more, but her friend pulled her, "Forget it, why don\'t we look at other things!"
"But this is a makeup gift for Sister Su Qing, how can I get other things!"
Suddenly she thought of something, turned her head and said to the tall woman who was picking clothes in the corner: "Gu Danxue, come here."
The woman paused, bowed her head and walked over.
Xu Ningyue said in a commanding tone: "I remember that the empress rewarded you with a piece of Liuyun Brocade last year. You can bring it over another day and make a Liuxian skirt for Sister Su Qing."
The woman pursed her lips, but said nothing.
Xu Ningyue said impatiently: "Why, you still don\'t want to? Have you forgotten how kind sister Su Qing is to you? Besides—"
Glancing at the obviously ill-fitting double-breasted skirt on the opponent\'s body, he sneered and said, "Just like you, don\'t waste a good thing for nothing!"
The woman\'s eyes darkened when she heard the words, and finally said "Got it" in a low voice.
…
Haitang followed Shen Mingjiao into the extremely deserted shop opposite. Before that, she glanced curiously at the plaque at the door, and the above-mentioned gilded words "Pretty Pavilion" dazzled people\'s eyes in the sunlight.
Haitang twitched the corner of her mouth speechlessly, who named it? So direct!
The lobby is so quiet that you can hear a pin drop, there are some old-fashioned ready-to-wear clothes scattered on the shelves, and behind the counter sits a woman in her fifties with a stern face.
Seeing someone coming, the woman raised her eyes and gave a cold glance, Haitang was startled immediately, thinking to herself, no wonder this shop is so deserted. That look just now is even more terrifying than the strictest discipline nun in the Hou Mansion.
Mommy Tao glanced at the black badge hanging on Shen Mingjiao\'s waist, walked over and bowed respectfully: "This old slave has seen Princess Su."
Shen Mingjiao raised her hand and gently supported her, "Nurse, you\'re welcome, I haven\'t entered the door yet, just call me Miss Shen."
Nurse Tao concealed the surprise in her eyes, and after a while, she said stiffly, "Miss, just take a look."
Shen Mingjiao nodded with a smile, carefully looked at the workmanship of each piece of clothing, and then went up to the second floor.
The second floor is pitch-black, and there are some overstocked fabrics of various colors inside.
Nanny Tao, who has been following behind her, sighed leisurely: "Miss Shen, please persuade the prince to turn off the electricity."
"I know he wants the old lady to remember him, and I accept that."
Shen Mingjiao shook her head: "Don\'t think too much, Mommy, His Highness naturally has his insistence in keeping this shop."
Nurse Tao sighed and didn\'t say any more.
The two of them went downstairs, only to see a tall woman standing in the lobby, staring cautiously at a water blue chest-length skirt.
Shen Mingjiao stepped forward and said with a smile: "Girl, this dress doesn\'t suit you."
