Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 94 4 Master's Backyard is involved in the daily life 19

Yinzhen left the court early, and when he came back he saw Le Shu bent over the desk, writing and drawing, without even raising her head.

As he got closer and looked, Yinzhen's eyes fixed.

"The clothes made from these patterns do need to be kept away from people first. Will people in the future wear clothes like this?"

His eyes fell on a slip dress.

If people knew about this dress, let alone wore it outside, they would probably be considered obscene.

"It's just a part. What you see is what I plan to wear when I sleep. I will never wear it outside. Don't worry! I still have some sense of propriety."

Nightdress?

That's fine, after all, women in ancient times wore bellybands when they slept in the summer! Bellybands are even more...

He looked at another one: "This is a cheongsam, right? It's just a little different from the ones I've seen before."

"This is a modified cheongsam. Compared with the first generation, this cheongsam is more fitted. I like it very much, but I can only wear it after I give birth. I can't wear it this year. I will draw it first and make it next year."

Cheongsams are very particular about fabrics, design, and workmanship. Modern Le Shu has had several custom-made ones made by master craftsmen in the alleys, and the prices were so high that she even felt a little pain in the ass.

Now that fabrics and embroiderers have achieved freedom, her designs may have some shortcomings, but... looking at Yinzhen, there are still people who can help improve them.

"Why are there still Song Dynasty costumes here?"

“Are there any from the Tang Dynasty?”

"Of course, both are available. Song Dynasty clothing is cooler than Manchu clothing. The outer garment is made of thin and breathable gauze, and the main body is made of cotton. I wear it in the yard, and I designed the inner garment separately.

As for the clothing of the Tang Dynasty, it is even cooler. If it is well made, it will look elegant when worn, and it will look colorful, warm and unrestrained.

I have designed several sets of clothes for you, but they are all underneath. It's a pity that your hair is not elegant and graceful."

"You are getting better and better at choreographing me. This dress hasn't been colored yet, let me do it!"

Le Shu looked at him with starry eyes: "Okay, I've been waiting for you to say that!"

"You're getting better at ordering people around!"

Le Shu looked at him with a smile: "Then will the Fourth Master be at your service?"

Yinzhen picked up the brush and said, "What do you think? Take out the paint and I'll fill it in."

Le Shu gave him a thumbs up: "Fourth Master is very fair!"

Yinzhen didn't understand what "juqi" meant, but he roughly understood what it meant. Now he understood her weirdness more and more.

It was getting dark now, and Yinzhen had filled in almost half of it when it got dark. It was not suitable to fill in the color under the light, but he could fill in the rest later.

It took Yinzhen three days to fill in the colors.

Le Shu called Xiulan and Xiumei over and asked them a few words of concern: "I asked Aunt Su to give you a place to live. Do you think it's convenient?"

Xiulan: "Thank you, Princess. Madam Su has taken great care of me and my sister. Princess, you have taken so much trouble. I will do my best for you."

Xiumei was a little slow in speaking, so she followed her sister and said, "So do I."

"I am doing my job. Nanny Su has taught you the rules. I will not let you do anything that is against the will of heaven and earth. However, the affairs of Shaoguang Courtyard, no matter how big or small, must not be disclosed. This is the most important thing."

"Yes, the servant understands."

Le Shu took out six drawings and said, "Take these back and make them according to my dimensions. Send them to me when they are finished."

"Yes, Grid."

The two took the drawings and left.

The two of them did not ask if there was a time limit. They would not be lazy. As the embroiderers around the favorite concubines of the Prince's Mansion, if they were lazy, there would be many people willing to replace them.

They are pitiful, but since they can walk into the Prince's Mansion, they are not fools!

There are six drawings, two of which are loose suspender skirts, two of which are modified ru skirts, and the last two are various underwear and panties.

Both the suspender skirt and underwear are made of poplin tributed from Shandong.

As for the improved mid-waist ruqun, it is simpler than the traditional ruqun.

One piece is basically a small camisole top made of poplin, with a long skirt that reaches the ankles, and a jacket made of soft gauze. I can only say that it must be very cool.

The other one is even simpler, a long suspender skirt, a soft gauze jacket, and a strap to slim the chest or waist, perfect.

Anyway, she didn't show her arms or legs, and no news could get out in Shaoguangyuan. She also got confirmation from Yinzhen, who said it was okay, so she naturally gave free rein to her design.

We have to get through this summer first.

Xiulan and Xiumei worked quickly and the clothes were delivered five days later. Seeing the dark circles in their eyes, you could tell that they had worked very hard.

The clothes are simple in style, but Yinzhen is a designer, and they also want to embroider them. The reason why they can finish them so quickly is because Yinzhen's aesthetic taste tends to be minimalist and elegant. If it was Qian Xiaosi's style, it might not be possible to embroider them in fifty days.

"You have worked hard. There is no need to be so anxious. Just do the work during the day. If it is not an important garment, work for two days and rest for one day. Three hours a day is enough. Don't overwork yourself and damage your eyes."

Le Shu looked at their embroidery work and said it was no exaggeration to say it was exquisite. They were talented people and they should protect their eyes. She was still waiting for them to start their class.

Xiulan and Xiumei felt like they had heard some kind of divine book: work two hours, rest one day, and work three hours a day?

How could there be such a good job?

In the south of the Yangtze River, no matter how skilled an embroiderer is, she will still be exploited. Many of them have gone blind from embroidery and have a miserable old age.

Xiulan felt that this was not a joke. If so, she would naturally agree to it and pulled her sister to kneel down: "Thank you, Master, for your grace."

Xiumei realized it later: "Thank you for your grace, Master."

"Get up. I'll go try on the clothes first."

Le Shu tried on the dress and found no problem. She had drawn one that was loose and flowing, and very comfortable to wear. She was pregnant, and she styled it differently every day, and she put a lot of effort into the design.

"Put your clothes away!"

"Yes, Grid."

Le Shu looked at the two of them and said, "You made great clothes. Go get your reward from Madam Su. It's a good opportunity to take some drawings back. You are from Jiangnan, so you know more about color matching and patterns to decorate clothes than an amateur like me.

I allow you to express yourself freely. If you don't have enough cloth, just go to Nanny Su for more. You are allowed to have some losses. Don't be afraid of trial and error. If you don't have enough manpower, just go to Nanny Su for more.

If you can train apprentices, and they make clothes that suit their preferences in the future, you will have a share of their rewards. I heard from Nanny Su that you both have daughters who are still young.

Girls, you should read more books. I will arrange for someone to teach them how to read. What do you think? "

Reading! Of course it is good. Although they are embroiderers, they have suffered a lot. If a daughter can read, she will be sensible. With the master around, it is possible for her to be betrothed to a minor official as his wife in the future.

This is a promise for their daughter's future!

Xiulan and Xiumei walked out of the dreamlike world and returned to the house. Xiumei said in a daze, "Sister, did you hear what the master said just now? Our daughter will not have to suffer from us in the future."

Xiulan was better than Xiumei, with excitement in her eyes: "Xiumei, the master has given you so much, you must remember what to say and what not to say when you go out.

When Nanny Su brings the people here, we must show our best skills. In addition, although the master allows our daughter to go to school, she still needs to be taught embroidery. After all, it is a skill that can barely support herself. "

Xiumei nodded. She didn't ask why. She just listened to her sister and did whatever her sister said.
