Gu Xi thought about picking up Yu Tang in a few days, so she went to the tailor's shop she often went to and prepared to make some new clothes.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and when she was wearing the sleeve jacket, she picked up and picked a piece of honey-colored woven gold folds.

The proprietress of the tailor's shop is in her thirties. She is fat, shrewd and capable, and she has troubles in her eyes.

She fiercely praised Gu Xi’s good eyesight, took the material and put it on Gu Xi’s body, and said: "This honey color recognizes people, and ordinary people don’t wear it well, but you can see, this material lining your skin. How white!"

This is indeed the case.

Gu Xi was very satisfied, and thought that Yu Tang would definitely host a family banquet when he came to Pei Mansion. Maybe Mrs. Yin and the others would treat him. She followed Mrs. Pei, and maybe she had a chance to show her face, and she hadn't come for some days. Taking care of the business of this tailor's shop, after a long time, why do others still hold her?

She simply asked the proprietress of the tailor's shop to help her recommend a few more pieces of material: "I want to make more clothes that suit my heart. I'm afraid there will be entertainment in winter."

The lady proprietor of the tailor shop was overjoyed when she heard it, and she hurriedly told the little apprentice to bring one of the materials brought by people from Jiangnan a few days ago, and whispered to Gu Xi with a smile: "Yes. The tribute made by Jiangnan weaving, afraid of colliding with the royal family, only changed a few colors and patterns, but the materials used are exactly the same as the weavers."

Royal things have their own rules, so if you want to do business that others love, you can't copy them all.

Gu Xi was born in the south of the Yangtze River. Gu's family also has silk and satin shops, and the streets here are also clear.

"Then take it over and take a look." She said casually, supported by the proprietress, and sat down in the next elegant room, took the tea offered by the proprietress herself, and took a sip.

The proprietress knew that Gu Xi was from an extraordinary background, and always wanted Gu Xi to help introduce a few guests. Before the materials were brought, she leaned over and said with a smile: "When will your sister-in-law be back? I will also go to uncle. Congratulations, my wife."

People like the Xu family, the Li family, and the Zhang family have their own embroiderers. Unless they are tired of looking at the clothes at home, they will rarely come out to order clothes. She just wants to pick up a leak.

If it does happen, even if you go to their house and make a veil, it will be enough for their family to brag about.

Gu Xi also knew her feelings, thinking that in the past few years of dealing with her, this lady boss could be considered honest and responsible, so she smiled and said, "I should be back a year ago. I will tell you when that happens."

Gu Chang has been walking along the path of qualitative essays for the past two years. After the beginning of the new year, there will be reassignment of the officials in the inspection department. Qualified essays are already helping Gu Chang to make plans. Yin thinks that the New Year is coming soon. A hand, but the ones who should be managed and the ones who should walk around, still take advantage of the New Year’s time to visit and write a letter to her, asking her to personally supervise the servant maid who stayed in the capital to clean the house. She rushed in November Before returning to Beijing in the middle of ten days, I will first go to Xu and Li's homes for a walk.

The lady proprietor of the tailor shop was naturally grateful, thinking that giving Gu Xi a discount would break the rules in the shop. If Gu Xi comes back in the future, should the discount be better or not? She thought about it, and while Gu Xi was talking to the tailor about the style, she turned to the warehouse and took a two-foot piece of cloth and gave it to Gu Xi: "It's the Shu embroidery from the Shu area. You only have this material. You must feel unusual It’s rare for me to be like this. If you take it back and make a hat for the young master, or make a hem or something by yourself, it will definitely be brilliant."

Gu Xi saw that it was a piece of orange thread silk embroidered with patterns of magpies and plums. In this way, it could be used as a hem, or it could be cut and trimmed. No wonder the lady boss let her use it on a skirt or hat.

Although this kind of material is common, the embroidery work of this material is very good. Whether it is magpie or plum blossom, they are all lifelike, with different expressions, vitality, and a lively atmosphere.

It can be seen that it is not the craftsmanship of ordinary people.

Since sending things, of course you have to send them to understand.

The proprietress of the tailor shop did not hide from Gu Xi, and said with a smile: "It was the embroidered eyebrow lady who embroidered the "Thousand Crane Picture" for the emperor on the Wanshou Festival that year. You know, since her embroidery became popular on the Wanshou Festival. After that, there was an endless stream of people looking for her. She stopped picking up the ordinary things. This was what she embroidered before she was not famous. I got it accidentally, and I have been reluctant to move. Otherwise, with a person like me, how can I have a chance to take it? To the embroidery of Lady Eyebrow."

Gu Xi had heard of this.

The emperor had his birthday that year, and the governor of Sichuan gave the emperor a picture of "Thousand Cranes" as a birthday gift. On a small screen, a thousand white cranes with different poses were embroidered. The lady who embroidered this picture became famous in one fell swoop, overshadowing the many embroiders in the south of the Yangtze River, and became the hottest embroiderer today. It is said that the price of embroidery is higher than that of gold, and the money is collected according to the size.

Gu Xi had never seen the embroidery of the lady eyebrow, and didn't know whether the fabric in her hand was genuine or fake, but both the color and the embroidery work were very exquisite and rare, and it was a fine product. She likes it very much. There is nothing wrong with accepting it.

She thanked her generously, ordered another squirrel-skin cloak, warmed her hands, and agreed on a date to pick up the clothes, and then returned home with lotus fragrance.

He Xiang knew Gu Xi's mind, and when serving her to change her clothes, he couldn't help but said, "There are still a few pieces of fox skin in the storeroom, which can be used to make a cloak. Or else, can I make you a cloak?"

Gu Xi shook her head and said, "The pieces of leather are all left by my mother. They are all black. Now such leathers are rare, let alone make a cloak? Keep them for Brother Yuan to use when he grows up. Come on! I have a squirrel skin."

But when Yu Tang was spending the winter in Beijing, she was pregnant with a child. The third master and the old lady were afraid that she would be frozen. They made five or six squirrel, mink, and fox skins.

The fragrance of lotus hesitated to speak but stopped.

Gu Xi didn't even notice, her mind had already turned to jewelry.

She knows that Yu Tang has a lot of jewelry. In recent years, she has a mother-in-law on top of her head. She doesn't dress up too much. She hasn't added jewelry for several years. If she buys it again, she is afraid that the old lady will make irresponsible remarks. Blast and refurbish the jewelry she used to get at Pei’s house. The main reason is that the gems are of good color. Even if she buys them, she may not be able to buy such good gems in a while.

Gu Xi was busy for a few days. When she went to meet Yu Tang, she deliberately wore the honey-colored woven gold sleeve jacket and a corolla inlaid with rubies. Together with Pei Tong, she brought Brother Yuan. Went to Pei's Mansion.

Pei Tong went to see Pei Xuan.

The second wife is waiting for her in the inner courtyard.

Seeing her here, he hugged Brother Yuan, and said to her dumbfoundedly: "Let’s go--Adan and Mrs. Xu are walking together, and A Hong is following Achan and them. They said they were with me, one by one. I ran away." After finishing speaking, he kissed the little face of the pro-Yuan brother and said, "It is still our brother Yuan who is obedient, and said that he will come to see his grandmother when he comes to see his grandmother. You buy delicious food, not for your aunt and uncle."

Where did Brother Yuan understand, he only knew that he was grinning and drooling. If the second wife laughed straight, he urged Gu Xi: "Let’s get into the carriage, it’s too cold, don’t freeze our brother Yuan. "

While supporting the second wife on the carriage, Gu Xi said, "Where is Brother Sen? Did you go to Tongzhou with Dan?"

The second wife sighed softly and said, "His grandmother said that the weather was too cold, and she was afraid that he would be caught by the wind and would not let him out. Adan and uncle went out together."

Gu Xi sat down to serve the second wife and laughed: "The weather is indeed too cold. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't dare to take Brother Yuan out. However, isn't Mrs. Yin's child just full moon? Why did she come out? Door? Lord Yin let her go out?"

"It must be forbidden." The second wife said without thinking about it, "But she has a temper, if she really wants to do something, who can stop it. No, Master Yin also followed. Uncle Qin just heard about Yin. The adults followed Mrs. Yin, and then followed Adam. Otherwise, he was going to be with Achan and Apo."

While talking, the carriage galloped out of the gate of Pei Mansion.

The second wife asked about Pei Tong's homework.

Everyone has great expectations for Pei Tong's end this time.

Gu Chang was not in the capital, and Gu Xi didn't know Pei Tong's details, so he could only tell the second wife about his usual situation. The short of the two parents has been talking about Tongzhou.

They rested in the house that Yu Tang had bought.

The female relatives are in the inner courtyard and the men are in the outer courtyard.

Gu Xi met Xu Xuan, Miss Zhang and others.

All know.

But Miss Zhang also came to pick up Yu Tang, which still surprised Gu Xi.

Miss Zhang smiled and pointed to Xu Xuan: "It's all her. I said I won't come, she insisted on me, and said that your third aunt had a good impression of me, and I was afraid that your third aunt would not remember me. I saw it. Your third aunt, I have to ask carefully to see if it's what she said."

Xu Xuan continued to give birth to a child, not knowing whether it was in a happy mood or good maintenance. She was not haggard at all, but she was more energetic than before.

She grinned and allowed Miss Zhang to blame, holding Pei Dan: "Go! It's rare that the son-in-law is not around. We can do whatever we want, and drink two cups today."

Pei Dan yelled: "Don't look for me. Brother-in-law said, don't let you drink. The child has not been a hundred days. I don't want my brother-in-law to hate me."

Xu Xuan threatened Pei Dan: "You are not afraid that I hate you."

Pei Dan looked in a dilemma.

Miss Zhang dragged her into the inner room: "What are you fighting with her? You won't win the fight. Let's freshen up quickly, rest early, and go to the sledge together at night!"

Pei Dan ran away.

"You don't wait for me!" Xu Xuan saw it, akimbo, "I said why Dan is not listening to me more and more. It turns out that you are instigating me to see how I will deal with you later."

"Mother Yaksha!" Miss Zhang smiled back and cursed, "You have the ability to yell with your arms on your hips in front of your brother-in-law, and I will take you."

Pei Chan's wife pursed her lips and smiled.

Several people frolicked and went to the inner room.

The second wife laughed nonchalantly and teased Brother Yuan: "It's still our brother Yuan who is obedient. Let's go and drink bird's nest soup and ignore them who are crazy." She said, holding Brother Yuan and left.

Gu Xi suddenly felt a little cold as she watched the servant women in the room busy packing their luggage.
