"As long as sister-in-law nods, I will start preparing immediately."
"You don't need to persuade her. Your sister-in-law is not an unreasonable person. I'm just afraid that she is worried about my safety."
"Alright, alright, I know you and your sister-in-law have a good relationship, but stop talking about this in front of me." Boss Cheng teased deliberately, "It makes me, a lonely man, feel bad!"
Boss Ye had never known anything about Boss Cheng's family before, and was shocked when he suddenly heard him say that he was a lonely man.
Boss Cheng is not young anymore, why is he still alone?
I don’t know whether he has never married or has lost his wife.
However, Boss Cheng didn't continue, and Boss Ye was too embarrassed to ask any more questions. He stood up and said goodbye, "I'll go back and discuss it with my family. I'll tell you as soon as I have any news."
Boss Cheng quickly stood up to see him off. Even after he saw him off to the door, he reminded him, "Please tell your family well and make sure they agree to this."
In addition to Boss Ye, Second Sister-in-law Ye also went out to discuss business in the morning.
She went to the Duan family accompanied by Madam Lu.
Ye Ersao had met the mother and daughter of the Duan family when she was taking measurements for clothes.
But when I came to the Duan family again today, the attitudes of the mother and daughter were completely different from last time.
There was eagerness in the eyes of both of them as they looked at Ye Ersao.
Madam Lu knew that Ye Ersao was not good at socializing, so she stepped forward and exchanged a few words with Mrs. Duan. She then asked Ye Ersao to bring out the patterns for the mother and daughter of the Duan family to choose from.
The mother and daughter were soon dazzled by the variety of the box.
After all, this dress may, to a large extent, determine Miss Duan's marriage.
The mother and daughter thought this pattern was good, that pattern was pretty, they liked them all and couldn't choose at all.
In the end, Ye Ye's second sister-in-law couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to recommend a few to them.
Although these are Western patterns, they look soft and beautiful, and seem very suitable for Miss Duan.
"What do you think of these? They should be a little more lively and bright in color, which is just right for Miss Duan's age now."
Mrs. Duan really liked the patterns chosen by Mrs. Ye Er, and quickly turned around to ask her daughter for her opinion.
At this time, Miss Duan was already dazzled and had no idea what to do.
When she heard her mother suddenly come to ask her, Miss Duan didn't even know what they were talking about.
But she still nodded politely. If her mother likes it, it shouldn't be too bad.
Moreover, this dress is likely to be worn for her future mother-in-law, so Mrs. Duan's taste may be more suitable.
The style of the clothes had already been decided, so this time, Mrs. Ye Er just had to confirm the pattern and color and everything would be fine.
So seeing that both of them had chosen their patterns, Ye Ersao wrote them down and prepared to say goodbye and go back.
Who is Mrs. Duan? She stopped her and insisted on having her stay at home for dinner.
Ye Ersao was almost scared to death when she heard this. The thought of having a meal with strangers, who were wives and daughters of officials, made her feel sick to her stomach.
Fortunately, Madam Lu came with her and saw through Madam Duan's intention at a glance.
"Mrs. Duan, if you have any other requests, please tell us all at once. Second Sister Ye must go home at noon. The whole family is waiting for you!"
Hearing Madam Lu's straightforward refusal, Mrs. Ye was worried for her again.
Even if you don't want to stay for dinner, you should say it tactfully and politely.
But in fact, Mrs. Duan didn't want to keep her for dinner at all. She just had something to say but was embarrassed to say it, so she made up a random excuse to keep her and then talk later.
Seeing that Madam Lu had seen through her intentions, Madam Duan stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Second Sister Ye, this is actually the case.
“My sister-in-law and my younger sister also like the dress you made for the queen, so when they heard that you were coming to my house, they both came over.
"So I just wanted to ask if I could take their measurements as well.
"I gave them money and made a set of clothes for each of them."
Only then did Ye Ersao understand what Madam Duan meant.
But what Ye Ersao didn't understand was that other people paid the money and she made the clothes. Isn't this a natural thing? Why did Mrs. Duan have to beat around the bush like this?
Madam Lu said, "Madam Duan, this matter is actually easy to discuss.
"Since you two are here, and Mrs. Ye is here too, it's natural for me to do something as simple as measuring.
"But there is one thing I need to tell you first. Mrs. Ye's business is indeed booked for more than a month later.
"I'll do it for you two first because that's what we agreed upon.
"But the two you mentioned recently won't receive such preferential treatment and can only move to the back of the queue.
"After all, you also know that among all the wives and daughters of officials in the capital, who wouldn't want to have our Second Sister Ye make clothes?
"That's because many people haven't figured it out and haven't come to us yet. Otherwise, it would have taken more than a month."
Hearing what Madam Lu said, Madam Duan suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
She did say this on purpose, thinking that if Ye Ersao was too embarrassed to refuse, she would be able to get her relatives to cut in line behind them and their daughter.
Only then did Mrs. Ye finally understand what Mrs. Duan meant.
She immediately looked up and looked at Madam Lu with gratitude.
If Madam Lu had not come along today, she would have definitely been tricked into entering by Madam Duan.
Only after leaving Duan's house and returning to the carriage did Ye Ersao breathe a sigh of relief.
