Chapter 389 Let the Embroiderer Do It
"Grandma, why don't you let the embroiderer in my house make new clothes for the New Year?" Qi Xingyun suggested to Grandma Yang with a smile.
"Yes, old lady, we have an embroiderer in our house. We can let her do it! Anyway, we only have one master, me, in our house now, and there isn't much work for them to do. If we let the embroiderer do it, old lady and Madam Yang won't have to work so hard." Yun Liu on the side also quickly echoed.
However, Old Lady Yang said with embarrassment: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? How can we take our clothes to your house to be made?" She felt a little guilty.
At this time, Li also nodded and said, "Yes, if outsiders knew about this, I really don't know what kind of gossip would spread."
Seeing this, Xiao Caoer hurriedly advised: "Grandma, mother, let the embroiderers in Brother Xingyun's house do it. When the time comes, we can give them a red envelope as payment for making clothes."
But Li still insisted: "Girl, we are idle at home anyway, you can still make this dress yourself."
Xiao Cao shook her head gently and reminded her, "Mother, have you forgotten that we will need my Tianlaan soon? By then, how will you have enough time to make clothes?"
"Oh! That's right, how could we forget about this completely!" Li slapped her thigh suddenly and shouted as if she suddenly realized something.
Old Lady Yang at the side also woke up from a dream, her eyes widened, and she asked in confusion, "That's right, didn't we agree to do it today? But now that we're out here, what are we going to do at home?"
As she spoke, she kept rubbing her temples with her hands, obviously a little overwhelmed by this sudden situation.
At this time, Xiao Cao'er beside her smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, grandma. Dad will definitely be fine! He has been doing this for so many years and has a lot of experience! It's a piece of cake for him to teach others.
Besides, today is the first day of work, and we are mainly focusing on teaching, so we don’t need to do too much at once. After we buy everything we need, we can go back and lend a hand, and everything will go smoothly!"
After hearing what Xiao Cao said, Li's heart finally settled down a little, and she hurriedly urged, "Yes, yes, yes, we have to hurry up and can't delay any longer!"
So, several people stopped dwelling on what had just happened and instead focused all their attention on the dazzling array of jewelry in front of them.
I saw Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li carefully selecting from among many exquisite jewellery. They particularly preferred those items that shone with gold or were as smooth as jade.
Look at those hairpins, some are made of pure gold and engraved with lifelike flower and bird patterns; some are carved from beautiful jade, and the top is embellished with dazzling gems or round and crystal pearls.
In addition, there are various novel and unique styles of step-shaking ornaments, which sway gently with people's movements, making crisp and pleasant sounds, which are very beautiful.
As for earrings, there are earrings of various shapes and hanging earrings to choose from. Bracelets are even more diverse, not only in terms of materials, such as jade, gold and silver, but also in terms of patterns and designs, which are dazzling.
Taking into account the age characteristics and preferences of Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li, they finally selected several sets of jewelry for each.
Xiao Caoer only selected a few pearl ornaments, muttering to herself, "When I go to Brother Xingyun's place, there are still pearls. It won't be too late to order them then. If I buy all of these now, there will be too many to wear when I make new ones later!"
As she spoke, she picked and chose from a pile of dazzling pearl jewelry, loving each piece and feeling that they all exuded charming brilliance.
However, when all the selected accessories were packed up one by one by the shopkeeper, Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li suddenly realized that they seemed to have picked too many.
At this time, Old Lady Yang kept staring at the shopkeeper, secretly praying that he would not make a mistake in the calculation. After all, she felt very sorry for the money that was about to be spent, and was really worried about whether she had enough money to pay.
However, the shopkeeper stood there calmly, showing no intention of starting to calculate the bill. This made Old Lady Yang very anxious, and she looked at the shopkeeper anxiously, hoping that he could calculate the total price as soon as possible.
Xiao Cao'er, who was standing by, looked at Old Lady Yang's anxious expression, then at the shopkeeper, and then at Qi Xingyun. She finally couldn't help but said, "Brother Xingyun, why don't we let them settle the bill quickly? We still have to go to the cloth shop next."
Qi Xingyun smiled and responded calmly: "Don't worry, didn't Lao Liu just say that you can just put it on my account, let's go."
