Tomb raiding: Start with a proficiency panel

Zhou Nanbei looked at the woman in front of him and obediently called out.

"Hello, Aunt Man."

Upon hearing this, the woman's expression brightened: "Good, little one, you're good too."

Then he looked at Sheng Sheng Man.

"Take your time, come and sit down."

By the way, who is this little one? He's so adorable, like a porcelain doll.

After Sheng Sheng sat down slowly...

Only then did he speak: "This is my younger brother. An elder in our family has passed away."

Please let me adopt them.

Hearing this, Aunt Man felt even more pity for Zhou Nanbei, her eyes almost overflowing with tenderness.

This made Zhou Nanbei feel uncomfortable for quite a while.

We've only known each other for a short time, it can't be that serious!

.........

Fortunately, Yin Nanfeng noticed Zhou Nanbei's embarrassment and said with a smile, "Aunt Man, it's been quite a while since you've come."

"What new clothes did you get?"

Hearing this, Aunt Man came back to her senses.

Seeing Yin Nanfeng nod slightly, he introduced, "There really is. My husband went on vacation a few days ago, didn't he?"

After observing the python robes of Ming Dynasty princes,

Inspired, I designed a cheongsam and an evening gown upon returning home. The cheongsam was embroidered with vermilion birds.

The evening gown is a phoenix.

"Would you like to take a look, South Wind?"

Yin Nanfeng's eyes lit up: "I'm interested."

Aunt Man, please show us around.

Aunt Man nodded in agreement and led the three upstairs. Upon arrival, they saw a vast array of samples.

Absolutely gorgeous.

Zhou Nanbei was dazzled by what he saw.

"Sister Man, you're so beautiful."

Hearing Zhou Nanbei's exclamation, Sheng Shengman couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Yin Nanfeng then teased him.

"Little Nanbei, you're so young."

So you know what beauty is now?

Aunt Man watched this scene without saying a word, while Zhou Nanbei raised an eyebrow.

Looking at Yin Nanfeng, he said, "I may be young, but whether I'm good-looking or not..."

I can see it.

Aunt Man spoke softly, "The children all say it looks good."

It seems my cooking skills are indeed quite good.

After all, children don't lie, right?

Yin Nanfeng smiled and said, "Haha, Little Nanbei."

You're so young and you already know how to be pretty.

Zhou Nanbei didn't respond, but instead changed the subject, saying, "Aunt Man,"

Where is that sample you mentioned?

Take us to see it.

Hearing this, Aunt Man smiled and nodded, "Okay, this way please."

The three of them went inside.

In front of the huge mirror, only two samples were hanging.

Zhou Nan looked around,

I just think they're absolutely gorgeous, especially the evening gowns; the overall color scheme is gold.

On the right shoulder is the head of a phoenix, crying out.

The skirt is shaped like the body of a phoenix, extending all the way to the right shoulder.

But while it looked good, Zhou Nanbei found it somewhat jarring.

At this moment, Aunt Man spoke up.

"How's the south wind?"

Yin Nanfeng glanced at Zhou Nanbei, who was frowning, and stepped forward to smooth his brows before asking, "Little Nanbei, don't you like it?"

Why are you frowning?

Sheng Shengman and Aunt Man also looked at Zhou Nanbei.

Zhou Nanbei looked at the evening gown,

Somewhat puzzled, he said, "It's not that I don't like it,..."

Just ...

This evening gown just feels a bit too jarring to me...

That's not quite right either...

Upon hearing this, Aunt Man looked at Zhou Nanbei in surprise and added:

"Is it because you're showing off your skills?"

Zhou Nanbei suddenly looked at Aunt Man and nodded: "Yes, yes, yes."

That's exactly how it feels.

Aunt Man smiled slightly: "The child has a good eye. The original intention behind the design of this evening gown was..."

It's about letting women stand out among many men.

It did not lose its momentum.

She even went so far as to suppress those men, thereby gaining more benefits for herself in conversations.

She paused, then added, "As the saying goes, 'Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse,' this evening gown can enhance its wearer's appearance."

However, this only has a subconscious effect; the most important factor is the person wearing it.

Hearing this, Yin Nanfeng was quite pleased, after all, her personality and the power she wielded both told her...

This evening gown suits her perfectly.

Then he smiled and looked at Aunt Man: "Aunt Man, I really like this evening dress."

"Make one for me."

Aunt Man nodded slightly: "Okay, in three months."

"Just bring it when the south wind comes."

.........

Ignoring Yin Nanfeng and the other person who were talking, Zhou Nanbei's gaze fell on the cheongsam embroidered with vermilion birds.

The cheongsam is bright yellow overall.

The red Vermilion Bird occupies most of its body, its thigh extending all the way to its right shoulder, but compared to the former's overtly sharp appearance,

This Vermilion Bird gives off a sense of restraint yet noble elegance, or perhaps it is both ordinary and extraordinary.

Just like the person wearing it,

Standing in the crowd,

It also gives people a sense of nobility that cannot be ignored.

At this moment, the slow, gentle voice rang out.

"Aunt Man, could you also order a few outfits for my little Nanbei?"

Do you have samples or drawings?

I'd like to choose one.

The slow, gentle murmur of the voice pulled Zhou Nanbei back to reality.

Aunt Man also came over.

"Yes, please wait a moment while I go get the booklet."

Take your time and explore on your own first.

Sheng Sheng Man nodded upon hearing this, and was about to leave with Zhou Nanbei in her arms, but Zhou Nanbei patted Sheng Sheng Man's arm.

"What's wrong, Xiao Nanbei?"

Sheng Sheng Man looked down at Zhou Nanbei and asked.

Zhou Nanbei shook his head slightly.

"It's alright, Sister Man, wait a moment. Let me take a look at this cheongsam."

very beautiful."

Seeing this, Sheng Sheng Man pointed to the Vermilion Bird cheongsam in front of her.

"Is this the one?"

Zhou Nanbei nodded affirmatively and then gave his evaluation of it.

The words fell.

Yin Nanfeng's voice came from the side: "Little Nanbei,

You really are born with a silver spoon in your mouth; you've never even heard of these things, yet you can give such an accurate assessment.

Zhou Nanbei looked at Yin Nanfeng.

She smiled slightly and said, "That's right, we were born to enjoy a life of luxury."

Just a casual joke,

She then asked, "Sister Nanfeng, the clothes here must be expensive, right?"

Ordinary clothes,

It's not nearly as vivid.

Yin Nanfeng nodded slightly: "Of course it's not cheap."

Do you remember what you said outside?

Zhou Nanbei was a little stunned for a moment, but he immediately knew what Yin Nanfeng was talking about.

So she spoke up, "Sister Nanfeng, are you referring to wealth, luxury, and fine clothes?"

Yin Nanfeng nodded affirmatively.

"That's right, simply put, it's not about wealth and luxury."

Do not enter this gate.

Zhou Nanbei frowned slightly: "That's not a very good thing to say."

Sister Nanfeng.

Yin Nanfeng smiled and said, "Alright, I didn't tell you everything. All the clothes here are made of the finest materials."

So those who can come,

Those who possess even a fraction of wealth and status are referred to as "people from impoverished backgrounds," while the saying "only those from such families can enter" implies a lack of opportunity for entry.

It's not that I look down on them,

Rather, they were afraid of causing trouble. After all, people's perception is limited, and in their eyes, these clothes might not be worth that much money.

Zhou Nanbei's brows relaxed.

"I see. So, this shop..."

"It must have quite a background, right?"

Yin Nanfeng nodded affirmatively: "That's right."

The tradition of Rongjinzhai dates back to the Ming Dynasty.

Aunt Man's ancestors were from the Imperial Wardrobe during the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty, and the lineage continued unbroken through generations.

Moreover, he learned many other skills during this period and incorporated them into his own tradition.

Even now.
