Chapter 35
Lowering his eyes, Changsun Jingrong frowned slightly, and strolled back to the backyard.

As soon as Lu Shishi returned to Lu's residence, she shrank herself in the room, crying and crying non-stop.After hearing this, Mrs. Fang hurried over, knocked on the door and called out: "My dear daughter, what's wrong with you? The crying mother's heart is going to break, stop crying, let mother go in and see you!"

Lu Shishi raised her head slightly, looked outside the door and shouted vigorously: "Don't, I don't want to see anyone! I'm so ashamed today, I must have become a laughing stock in the capital, how can I go out in the future? Mother let me Just fend for yourself here!"

"You child, what nonsense!" Fang frowned anxiously, "I just heard from your maid, didn't you let the woman from the eldest grandson's family bully you in the silk and satin village? Don't worry, there is a mother here, sure I won’t teach that woman a lesson, I’ll vent my anger on you! Blame my daughter, open the door quickly!”

After Fang's earnest persuasion outside the door for a long time, Lu Shishi came out slowly and opened the door.

Looking at her daughter with red eyes, Fang's heart ached.Wiping Lu Shishi's cheek with a handkerchief, Fang entered the door and said, "You child, you are always acting on your own will. If your sisters find out about this, they will definitely spread the word again."

"Let's pass it on, anyway, my reputation has already been ruined by the eldest grandson's family, and this life is over!"

"Why are you always talking about being angry? Your life has just begun, and there is still a long way to go. What are these?" Fang held Lu Shishi's hand, and said earnestly, "Eldest grandson Jingrong is just a businesswoman. No matter how powerful your mouth is, it is just a doomsday flower. If you want to deal with her, there are many ways, for example, let your father find someone to seal up her shop! Remember, make good use of the power in your hand!"

Fang's words made Lu Shishi calm down slowly, and the lost eyes gradually became brighter.Turning her head to look at her mother, Lu Shishi pursed her lips and said firmly, "What mother said is that my daughter is too weak. My daughter already knows what to do!"

The weather at the end of July was so hot that even the cicadas on the trees were unable to sing.The sky was cloudless, there was no shadow on the ground, and it was scorching hot to the feet.

Walking from the outside to the shop, Bi He was covered in sweat and kept wiping with a handkerchief, grinning and grinning, complaining: "It's so hot outside, I just went across the street to buy a few bowls of sour plum soup, it's like being soaked in water." It’s like living. If you walk outside for a day, you will definitely be cooked!"

Just when Bi He was complaining, Qiao Shan'er heard the noise and walked out from behind the curtain, holding a few wooden bowls in her hand, and took the sour plum soup from Bi He's hand.

Staring at Qiao Shan'er intently, Bi He said strangely: "Hey, why don't you sweat? It looks dry and cool, it seems very cool."

While pouring out the sour plum soup, Qiao Shan'er smiled and said, "Hee hee, it's not just me, look at the guys in the shop, they don't look very hot either."

Hearing what Shan'er said, Bihe looked around, and saw that the busy guys really looked very refreshed, not at all like herself, as if they were almost dehydrated.Curiously scratching her hair bun, Bihe looked around and asked, "Is it because we put ice cubes in our shop? It's not right, I didn't feel very cool when I came in. It's strange..."

Seeing Bihe sweating, Changsun Jingrong couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "You girl is really careless, didn't you realize that the clothes we are wearing today are different from those in the past?"

"Clothes?" Bi He took a closer look at everyone's clothes, patted her forehead immediately, and sighed, "Ah, it turned out that I was wearing clothes made of white ice silk on my forehead! But, is this thing really so useful?"

"Whether it works or not, you'll know if you put on one too," Qiao Shan'er took out a set of light pink skirts that she had prepared a long time ago, and said, "This is what the lady prepared for you. Before I asked you to put on new clothes, you couldn't wait to run out."

"I'm in a hurry to buy sour plum soup for everyone," Bihe complained, but when her fingers touched the white ice silk clothes, she felt a chill, which made her unwilling to delay any longer. Hastily went to change clothes.

After a long while, Bi He appeared in the crowd wearing new clothes, and walked around in a circle, saying with satisfaction: "This thing is really amazing! It doesn't stick to the body at all, on the contrary, there is a trace of coolness. Miss, let's quickly display these clothes, they will definitely sell well!"

"The weather is so hot, and the wives and ladies are reluctant to go out, even if they are put out, it won't be of much use," Changsun Jingrong said, "So, it's time to take the initiative!"

On the four corners of the room, ice basins are placed respectively, making the room a little cooler.The maidservants who came and went held iced drinks in their hands, as if the wind was blowing under their feet, for fear that these cool drinks would be contaminated with heat if it was too late.The maidservant behind her waved a round fan, wrapped in the fragrance of elegant cosmetics, blowing towards her face, making people soft and drunk.

Supporting her side cheeks with her arms, Xiao Runiang covered her face and yawned, looking sleepy and lazy.

At that time, a maid walked up to Xiao Runiang and whispered in her ear: "Ma'am, Miss Changsun, please see me."

"It's the mirror coming," Xiao Runiang said as she stood up lazily, "let her in quickly, it's hot outside."

The maid who took the order came out, and after a short while, she brought the three masters and servants of the eldest grandson's family into the room.

As soon as he entered the door, Changsun Jingrong felt a sense of coolness, and the corners of his mouth could not help but slightly curled up, thinking that today's journey was really the right one.

Standing in front of Xiao Runiang, the eldest grandson Jingrong said softly, "Jingrong has met Mrs. Gu."

"Why do you still see outsiders so much? There are no outsiders here. Why are you talking so much?" Xiao Runiang patted her side and said, "It's hot in that place and there are no ice cubes to keep it cool. Sit here and it will be cool." Some."

"Okay," Changsun Jingrong smiled, and calmly walked to Xiao Runiang and sat down.Looking around at the decorations in the room, Changsun Jingrong couldn't help sighing, "Madam really enjoys it. I'm afraid I saved these ice cubes last winter."

"No, my husband originally wanted to keep the storage, but he didn't expect that this summer would be so hot, so he used it to cool me down. Heh, he feels very distressed because of this."

While talking, Xiao Runiang noticed that her eldest grandson Jingrong came in from the outside, and she didn't seem to have any trace of sweat on her body. She couldn't help but wondered: "Why, do you also use ice on your carriage? Why do you look calm and not at all burnt?" The embarrassment after baking?"

With her messy hair in her hand, Changsun Jingrong said with a smile: "It's natural to be cool when you are calm, and if you do things indifferently, you can feel cool for a while."

Xiao Runiang felt that what she said made sense, so she nodded, but just as she was about to say something, she found that the two maidservants beside her were also calm, and then looked at the people around her, especially those who came in from the outside. All the maidservants were sweating, looking a little embarrassed.

Suspicious eyes fell on the eldest grandson Jingrong again, and after looking up and down, his eyes couldn't help but widen, and said: "I have never seen the material of your clothes today. Is it a new product in your shop?"

"My sister really has a bright eye," Changsun Jingrong said with a smile, "This is a new material that we have rushed out. It is dyed and ironed on white ice silk. After cutting, it is tailored and made into a dress. Sister, don't Said, this material feels cool to the body. I came to visit my sister today, so I brought a set as a gift for my sister, I hope my sister will not dislike it."

"White ice silk, isn't it used to make mourning clothes?" Xiao Runiang took the clothes Bihe sent over with suspicion, but as soon as her fingertips touched the fabric, her eyes lit up.Putting the clothes on the arms casually, there was a feeling of icy coolness, which made people feel refreshed.If you wear this on your body, it will definitely be cold and refreshing.

Looking at the clothes like a baby, Xiao Runiang has completely changed her attitude, and said: "Before, people only knew to use this material to make mourning clothes, which is really wasteful. Now, through the skillful hands of my sister, the white material is dyed into patterns, which are beautiful and cool. What a good thing to benefit the common people! I think my sister will make a fortune this time!"

Lowering his head shyly, Changsun Jingrong said with a smile: "I haven't thought about it so far, but because I have a batch of goods in my hand, it's a waste to keep it, so I figured it out by accident. I don’t know if this thing will sell well.”

"Why is it not easy to sell? If the wives and ladies of other people's families know about it, they will definitely have their heads cut off!" Xiao Runiang said.

Hearing this, Changsun Jingrong asked with some doubts: "Is this really possible? I see that those noble people have ice cubes in winter, so they won't suffer in summer. My clothes are not too big. Useful."

"Oh, my sister's thinking is too simple," Xiao Runiang said comfortably while eating the iced fruit in front of her, "Although it is cool and refreshing in my mansion, who can stay at home all the time? Especially Those old men always have to go out to do errands. There is no ice outside to cool people down. As long as you walk for a quarter of an hour, the front and back of your clothes will be soaked, so embarrassing. I think your material is not only cool, but also not like It looks like it likes to absorb water, and if you stay for a while longer, you can keep refreshing. You, just listen to your sister, and hang it up for sale. Oh, by the way, you have to set aside a few horses for me first, I will To make fuselage clothes for myself and my master."

"Heh, what did my sister say? If you like it, I'll give you a few horses. Originally, when I was looking for my sister, I wanted to give you some."

"You really have a heart. If you have such a good thing, you can think of me first," Xiao Runiang happily ordered people to put away the fabric, and then seemed to think of something suddenly, put away her smile, turned around and held the hand of her eldest grandson Jingrong , and asked: "Jingrong, have you offended the Lu family recently?"

Looking slightly worried, Changsun Jing looked a little uncomfortable, and asked, "Sister, did you hear any rumors?"
