The bright moon and the empty courtyard are like water like a Chinese year

Chapter 50 The Veritable Savage Granny (8)

One week later in the morning, the second concubine (Yiyi) invited these three mahjong friends to come home again. However, this time Mrs. Nian did not go home temporarily because of something at home. Sixteen rounds of mahjong have been played, and the second young lady (Zihan) is still waiting beside the second concubine (Yiyi), rubbing her shoulders and back.

……

……

……

After playing mahjong, it was already afternoon, when the second concubine (Yiyi) was having afternoon tea and snacks with three mahjong friends.

……

……

……

Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Shop sent someone to deliver a few bolts of silk and satin to the door. It turned out that the second concubine (Yiyi) had ordered Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Shop to deliver the new silks and satins three days ago.

……

……

……

In addition, master Xu, a tailor from Jixiang Tailor Shop, also happened to come to Song's house, waiting to help the second concubine (Yiyi) tailor-made, and both of them were waiting for the second concubine (Yiyi) in the lobby.

Venue: Song Family Hall

"Today, Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Village"

"Send someone to send a few bolts of silk and satin over here"

"Mrs. You, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Nian, it just so happens that you are all here."

"By the way, help me choose."

"Let's see which one is suitable for my new clothes."

"You have always had a good eye"

"I trust your vision."

"With you here."

"It will definitely help me choose the material that suits me"

The second concubine (Yiyi) won a lot of money from the three mahjong friends today, so when she spoke, she was not so mean. She deliberately saved some face for the three mahjong friends and pretended to flatter her.

……

……

……

"Second Aunt, this piece of clothing is very suitable for you."

Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Shop casually picked up one of the several bolts of silk and satin materials placed on the tea table in front of him, and flattered his second wife (Yiyi).

……

……

……

"is it?"

……

……

……

"Is it silk or satin?"

"I don't like silk."

……

……

……

"Is there any difference between this silk and satin, is there any difference?"

At this moment, the second young lady (Zi Han) sitting opposite the second concubine (Yiyi) asked a curious question.

……

……

……

"Of course there is a difference, of course they are different. Both silk and satin are a kind of silk fabric, and silk is generally slanted weave."

"I used to choose hair silk to weave silk. Hair silk is the outermost silk on the cocoon, which is relatively rough."

"So silk is not a particularly advanced thing."

Mrs. You, sitting on the left of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the lobby, replied to the second young lady (Zihan).

……

……

……

"That is, silk is generally easy to see the front and back, and the back is dull and astringent."

"So, in the past, ordinary people still couldn't afford to wear them."

"Common people can only wear cotton or linen, most of which are linen fabrics."

Mrs. Liu, sitting on the right of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, replied to the second young lady (Zihan).

……

……

……

"Actually, satin is a fabric woven by the satin method."

"There are many kinds of satin treatments."

"It is common to fly two times with four and three times with six"

"Because this weaving method shows more weft threads."

"So the overall look is smooth."

"So satin must be better than silk"

……

……

……

"There is another kind, called Jin"

"As for brocade, strictly speaking brocade should be called weaving brocade."

"It's actually a method of fabric jacquard"

"Later, I got used to it, so I called the jacquard fabric of brocade weaving method brocade."

"Brocade is the most advanced technique in fabric jacquard."

Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Zhuang pointed to several bolts of silk and satin materials on the tea table in front of him, and explained to everyone.

……

……

……

"After hearing what you said, Boss Liu, I understand everything."

"It turns out that choosing clothing materials is still so knowledgeable."

The Second Young Mistress (Zi Han) responded with a smile.

……

……

……

"Second Aunt Song, look, the material and color of this piece of clothing are quite good."

"This color is bright, and you can tell it suits you at a glance."

Mrs. You, who was sitting on the left of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the lobby, suggested to the second concubine (Yiyi) who stood up to choose the clothes.

……

……

……

"is it?"

"Let me see"

……

……

……

"Yes, Second Aunt Song, this dark red matches your skin tone very well."

"It is the most suitable for making cheongsam"

Mrs. Liu, who was sitting on the right of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, suggested to the second concubine (Yiyi) who stood up to choose the clothes.

……

……

……

"Yes, yes, I also think Mrs. Liu is right and very reasonable."

Sitting opposite the second concubine (Yiyi) in the lobby, Mrs. Nian echoed her voice to the second concubine (Yiyi) who stood up to choose the clothes.

……

……

……

"is it?"

"I think this olive green is very pretty and suitable for my mother."

At this moment, the second young mistress (Zi Han) who was sitting opposite the second concubine (Yiyi) spoke again.

……

……

……

"Second Young Mistress, you really have a good eye, this olive green horse is newly arrived today"

"Even the director's wife likes it, it's the most expensive one here."

Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Village pointed to the only olive green material on the coffee table in front of him, and responded to the second young lady (Zihan).

……

……

……

"Wow, the newest and most expensive material in the audience is actually taken by your second young lady."

"And what's rare is that even the wife of the director likes it. It's really high-grade."

"Second Aunt Song, your daughter-in-law has a really good vision, much better than ours."

"In the future, she will accompany you to choose clothes, so you won't be afraid that you won't be able to choose the one you like."

Mrs. Liu, who was sitting on the right side of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, praised the second concubine (Yiyi) who stood up to choose clothes.

……

……

……

"That's right, the second young lady chose really well, we are middle-aged after all"

"You can't compare with the Second Young Mistress"

"In terms of color selection, it is better to choose olive green."

"It's more suitable for people like us who are mother-in-laws"

Mrs. You, who was sitting on the left of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, took the opportunity to speak.

……

……

……

"Mrs. Nian, the three of them insist on their own opinions."

"I'm so confused by them"

"All of a sudden, I have no idea"

"You tell me something fair"

"You say crimson suits me after all."

"Or is olive green right for me?"

……

……

……

"Second Aunt Song, do you really want me to tell the truth?"

……

……

……

"Mrs. Nian, just tell me. Since I asked you to tell me, of course I believe in your eyes."

……

……

……

"That's right, Mrs. Nian, just tell the truth, we want to hear it too"

Mrs. You, who was sitting on the left of the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, took the opportunity to speak.

……

……

……

"Then I said, to be honest, different ages are suitable for different colors."

"We are old enough to be mother-in-laws, so it's more suitable to wear olive green."

Mrs. Nian, who was sitting opposite the second concubine (Yiyi) in the hall, responded solemnly to the second concubine (Yiyi).

……

……

……

"Mom, did you hear that?"

"Even Aunt Nian agrees with me"

At this moment, the second young mistress (Zi Han) who was sitting opposite the second concubine (Yiyi) spoke again.

……

……

……

"In this case, Master Xu, take this olive green horse and help me make a cheongsam."

……

……

……

"Okay, Second Aunt."

Standing aside and watching quietly, Master Xu, a tailor of Jixiang Tailor Shop, smiled and responded to the order of the second concubine (Yiyi).

……

……

……

After the second concubine (Yiyi) chose the material for the clothes, the three mahjong friends and wives also borrowed words one after another and went home together.

……

……

……

The second aunt (Yiyi) felt that she had lost face today, so she walked back to her room angrily.

Coincidentally, at this time, Steward Song came back from work, and the second concubine (Yiyi) ordered the close maid (Ju Xiang) to call Steward Song and the second young mistress (Zihan) to her room.

Location: Second Aunt (Yiyi) Room

"Second Aunt, don't be angry with Second Young Mistress"

"She's still young, ignorant, and doesn't know how to speak"

"Don't bother with her."

"If the body is broken by anger, the loss outweighs the gain?"

"Come on, drink a cup of ginseng tea, calm down."

Before Steward Song came to the room of the second concubine (Yiyi), he learned the details of the previous incident from the maid (Ju Xiang) who was close to the second concubine (Yiyi). Too (Yiyi).

……

……

……

"Song Steward, tell me, who is a daughter-in-law like her?"

"Since I entered the door, I have been against me everywhere, and I have suffered from bad luck."

"She not only made me lose face in front of those mahjong friends' wives."

"And let me have so many servants in the Song family"

"There are also servants of Boss Liu of Xiangluo Silk and Satin Village."

"Master Xu, a tailor of Hejixiang Tailor Shop, was completely humiliated in front of him"

"Song Butler, tell me, can I not be angry?"

"The three of them never dared to say that I was old before"

"Give them a chance today"

"Tell me, Zihan is like this, isn't it obvious that I can't get along with me?"

……

……

……

"When people marry their daughter-in-law, they want to make their mother-in-law happy."

"I married my daughter-in-law, why did you just make me angry?"

"When my mother and the eldest wife were at home, I had no right to speak."

"Finally, now that I can be the master of the house, I still have to be laughed at."

"I'm really mad at her"

……

……

……

At this moment, the Second Young Mistress (Zi Han) came in.

"Mom, don't be angry, I was wrong just now."

"Can't speak, please forgive me"

It turned out that the second aunt (Yiyi) "complained" to Butler Song, and the second young lady (Zihan) overheard it before she came in.

……

……

……

"You made me lose face in front of those mahjong players today, and made me lose face"

"You have violated all the so-called women's words and women's virtues"

"Daughter-in-law like you, I really don't know what's wrong with me, so I marry into the door"

……

……

……

"Mom, how can you say that?"

"It was you who wanted to marry me in the first place."

"It's not that I begged you to marry me."

"Also, I'm telling the truth today"

"That olive green, so pretty, really suits you."

"Only when a dignified and beautiful woman like you wears it can you show your charm"

……

……

……

"Okay, okay, I wouldn't be so ashamed if you could just talk like you do now."

After all, the second concubine (Yiyi) accepted the apology from the second young lady (Zihan) and drank the ginseng tea that Steward Song handed her.
