The girl traveled through another world and forced the prince to take the imperial examination
Chapter 53 Backpacks Come into Being
Mu Qingcheng looked at the three sets of clothes carefully again in the room. Each one looked good. Finally, she chose the fruit green dress and put it on, and also put on the white rabbit fur cloak.
Not to mention, the cloak is quite warm. This white cloak is made of dark-patterned silk fabric, which feels soft and very thick. There should be a thin layer of cotton inside. There is only a circle of rabbit fur on the edge of the hat, so it doesn't feel heavy at all when worn.
The moment Mu Qingcheng changed her clothes and walked out of the room, Yun Qing also walked out of the room wearing a black robe. The two met at the door and stood facing each other.
Unfortunately, Yun Qing couldn't see Mu Qingcheng's appearance, he could only feel that the girl in front of him was holding her breath and standing still.
Yun Qing's appearance clearly caught Mu Qingcheng's eye. He was dressed in a dark robe, which only accentuated his fair complexion and handsome features, making him look even more noble. The cold and distant look between his eyebrows, set against the dark robe, further enhanced his aura of superiority.
Mu Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh that this black with a slight red color was a perfect match for his temperament.
Even Mu Qingcheng, who was used to seeing handsome men in later generations, couldn't help but stare in amazement.
Madam Zhou and Madam Wang were sitting in the main hall when they saw the two figures in the yard: one tall and graceful, the other with picturesque features and a graceful figure.
"What a perfect match made in heaven! ... Tsk! What a pity they are brother and sister."
When Lady Wang saw these two outstanding people, she couldn't help but sigh. She didn't expect that she would say what was in her heart. She knew that she had said the wrong thing and hurried to make amends.
Madam Zhou smiled meaningfully and said, "Isn't it the beauty that captivates the whole country? What a wonderful name!"
Mu Qingcheng swallowed and felt panic-stricken for a moment.
"Are you two satisfied with the clothes you wear?"
Seeing that the two of them were reluctant to come in, Madam Wang and Madam Zhou had no choice but to walk out of the main room and stand in the yard to talk to them.
"Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied."
Mu Qingcheng answered with a smile, lowered her head and adjusted her skirt to cover up her previous gaffe.
"As long as you are satisfied, that blue gown of yours doesn't fit you very well. How about I take it back and have it altered?"
Yun Qing didn't care. He couldn't tell whether it was changed or not. But this reminded Mu Qingcheng.
"Madam Wang, please make another piece of clothing for my brother. This time, make it crimson with black trim, and also make him a black belt."
Yun Qing's clothes used to be in plain colors such as white, light blue, and light gray. He chose the black color today mainly because he didn't want to attract too much attention. Unexpectedly, it had the opposite effect. He looked even more eye-catching in the black color.
Mu Qingcheng excitedly designed clothes for Yun Qing on the spot.
Crimson? Yun Qing frowned slightly. Was that the color chosen for him? He silently resisted in his heart, but after hearing the girl's excited voice, Yun Qing couldn't refute. Then he thought, he couldn't see it anyway. No matter how ugly the clothes were, others would see them. What business did it have for him?
Thus, he quickly accepted that he would soon have a crimson garment.
The three women put on a drama. They talked about the color of the clothes, the fabric, and then talked endlessly about the patterns to be embroidered on the collar and cuffs.
Yun Qing shook his head helplessly and simply went back to his room to sit and drink tea, as if they were not talking about his clothes.
"Madam Wang, I wonder if you could make me two bags. I want them to be more convenient when I go out."
"Oh! What kind of bag? Miss, can you give me a design, or a picture?"
Mu Qingcheng thought that they would have to leave here in a few days. When they came here, they were penniless and had nothing. Who would have thought that when they left, they would be so poor that they didn't even have an ox cart.
But in just a few days, they had already accumulated a lot of things. Now that Aniu was gone, how could they carry these things on foot? They couldn't just follow the local customs and let her carry a bag everywhere she went. Therefore, Mu Qingcheng suddenly thought of the black backpack she had lost.
It's time to popularize backpacks so that everyone can have one. That way, if someone finds out she has a black backpack, they won't think she's an outlier.
Mu Qingcheng asked Yun Qing for pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the three of them began on-site teaching on the stone table under the pomegranate tree in the yard.
Mu Qingcheng first drew the outline of the backpack for Wang Niangzi, giving her a rough idea of the design. She then explained in detail the purpose of the backpack, its size, and the need for more durable fabrics. She even went into detail about the shape and size of each part, and the width of the shoulder straps.
There were no zippers in that era, so she had to use laces instead. She also designed many small pockets for the backpack to hold small items. The small pockets had a flap design and were fastened with wooden buttons.
Speaking of buttons, even Lady Wang, a seamstress, didn't know what they were. Mu Qingcheng hadn't imagined that buttons didn't exist in this era, considering that most of the clothes she wore used straps. It turned out that there weren't any buttons here at all. This discovery piqued Mu Qingcheng's interest. She immediately explained to Lady Wang the shapes and sizes of buttons, their benefits, and their practicality.
Madam Wang is an expert. She knew that the button was not simple as soon as she heard it. The backpack drawn by Miss Mu was even more extraordinary.
Madam Wang was also a straightforward person. She immediately went home to get needle, thread and cloth and started cutting in front of Mu Qingcheng.
The three of them were busy. Mu Qingcheng was responsible for technical guidance, Madam Wang was responsible for cutting and sewing, and Madam Zhou was not good at needlework, so she could only help. But no matter how bad Madam Zhou was, she could still sew a few stitches, while Mu Qingcheng could only thread the needle.
The three of them worked very quickly and the backpack's shape was completed in just over an hour. There are still some details that have not been completed.
Mu Qingcheng was very excited. This bag was the same size and shape as the one she had lost. She brought some clothes and supplies from the house and demonstrated to the two people how to use the bag.
Wang Niangzi and Zhou Niangzi had never imagined that this bag could hold more things than a handbag, especially small scattered items, such as keys, silver, jewelry, combs, and bottles and jars of medicine. These scattered small items can be placed in the interlayer bag. This bag also has a lid, which makes it easy to find things and prevent them from getting messy. The two shoulder straps can also free up both hands. This backpack is very convenient to carry when going out.
Mrs. Zhou immediately thought of her son who was studying in the county town. He only came home once every three months. Every time he went back and forth, he had to carry a big bag with food and drinks in his hands, and he had to squeeze into a ox cart with others. It was really inconvenient. It would be great if he had a backpack like this.
Mrs. Zhou was also impatient. She spoke out her thoughts immediately and directly proposed to Mrs. Wang that she wanted to make a backpack like this for her son. She asked her how much it would cost.
Madam Wang didn't reply and looked at Mu Qingcheng embarrassedly. Madam Zhou also came to her senses in an instant. The owner of this bag was Mu Qingcheng. She also looked at Mu Qingcheng embarrassedly and asked: "Miss, can you sell me this bag?"
Sell? Mu Qingcheng had thought about opening a shop in the future, but she had never thought about selling bags.
Madam Wang also quickly interjected, "Miss Mu, I haven't seen much of the world, but I can tell this bag is a valuable one. Does it have a history?"
Although Mu Qingcheng was just a student and had never been beaten after entering society, she was not a naive naive person. She understood what Lady Wang was going to do as soon as she heard it.
Mu Qingcheng smiled and said, "There's no background. I just wanted to make things easier."
Lady Wang also became interested when she heard this: "Young lady, you are really smart! Speaking of business, have you ever thought about starting a business selling backpacks?"
"How does this deal work? Madam Wang, tell me about it."
Mu Qingcheng did not agree immediately, wanting to see how Madam Wang wanted to sell the bag.
"Miss, this bag is ingeniously designed. It's one of a kind in Qi. Anyone who sees someone else using it will want to buy one. It's sure to become a craze. I'm thinking of making a batch of these and selling them in the county town or even further afield in the prefecture. I know a tailor I could sell them on consignment through. I'll provide the materials and labor, and I'll sell the goods. We'll split the profits 50-50. How do you do it?"
A 50-50 profit split was something Mu Qingcheng had not expected. After all, she had done nothing and did not even have to bear any risks. She had only produced a picture, so a 50-50 profit split was not an option.
