"Miss Li, our young lady truly admires your taste and likes you too," the maid said anxiously when Li Youran did not respond.
"Miss, you know my shop is very busy. I'm afraid the staff won't be able to handle everything after I leave. Would it be possible to wait for another staff member to arrive after half an incense stick's time?"
Li Youran didn't intend to refuse, since she had already agreed yesterday; she just didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.
"That's natural."
Seeing that Li Youran agreed, the maid's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. Half an incense stick's time was not long, and it would be fine to wait a little while.
The inner courtyard of the Qian family mansion was bustling with activity, as a group of maids were busy carrying things in and out.
"Miss, these are all colors you usually like. Why do you find them too bright today?"
"The Second Prince's wife has always preferred elegance and tranquility, so these bright red and green colors are naturally not suitable."
As Qian Qingqing spoke, she waved to the maid opposite her. The maid then withdrew, and another maid carrying clothes took her place.
"Never mind, there's not enough time to make one right away, so this will do!"
Although Qian Qingqing was not satisfied, time was of the essence, so she had no choice but to choose a light apricot-colored dress.
“Our young lady is naturally beautiful. She looks good in anything she wears, even something as simple as this. She can make it look fresh and new.”
Seeing that Qian Qingqing was in a bad mood, the maid said some nice things to cheer her up.
"Since the Second Prince's Consort prefers simplicity and elegance, then Miss should showcase her talents tomorrow. I'm sure that even the most refined young ladies can't match her skill with a casual display."
Hearing the maid's words, Qian Qingqing finally smiled.
Never mind, it's just a piece of clothing, no need to care so much. The most important thing is that she has real talent.
On the day of the flower appreciation festival, she recited many poems and songs about appreciating flowers, naturally putting the other young ladies to shame.
"By the way, send someone to tell Liu Nana not to wear anything too flashy tomorrow. Just say that the Second Prince's Consort doesn't like flashy clothes."
Qian Qingqing gave instructions to the maid.
Speaking of Liu Nana, Qian Qingqing had to do her some small favors, but she couldn't treat her sincerely. After all, someone as brainless as Liu Nana could only be a follower, always trailing behind her.
Having lived for so long, Li Youran has finally seen the light of day and knows what it means to be from a wealthy and powerful family, and what it means to be magnificent and opulent.
After entering the Jiang residence, Li Youran lost track of how many times she had gone in and out. She only knew that she had gone through countless circles and passed through countless doors before finally arriving at Jiang Qianqian's boudoir.
"Your boudoir is bigger than my yard."
Li Youran sighed.
Jiang Qianqian's boudoir, where she lives alone, is also a small courtyard, with enough rooms for her whole family to live in.
“My father doted on me. This courtyard in the misty rain is the best-located courtyard in the family, apart from the one where my grandparents lived.”
Seeing that Li Youran made no attempt to hide his thoughts, Jiang Qianqian felt a renewed sense of goodwill towards him, thinking that Li Youran was a straightforward person.
"I'm troubling Miss Li to come today because I'm going to a flower viewing party tomorrow, but I'm having trouble deciding what to wear."
As Jiang Qianqian spoke, she gestured to the maids beside her. In no time, more than a dozen maids displayed all the clothes that Jiang Qianqian had prepared.
Li Youran was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped. Although she was mentally prepared and knew that Jiang Qianqian must have a lot of clothes, she did not expect that there would be more than a hundred pieces.
"With so many clothes, I'm afraid I won't be able to wear them all even by summer."
As Li Youran spoke, she scanned the clothes with her eyes. She noticed that although there were many clothes, most of them were very similar, either in color or style.
"Take this, this, and this away."
After Li Youran's busy work, there were still thirty pieces of clothing left out of more than one hundred. These thirty pieces of clothing were all different in style and color, representing a variety of different styles.
"I will go and try these clothes on for Miss Li to see."
"Wait a minute, you'll be exhausted after changing so many clothes."
Li Youran waved her hand, indicating that Jiang Qianqian didn't need to change her clothes.
"Please, both of you, place this garment in front of your young lady."
As Li Youran spoke, she gave instructions, and the clothes seemed to be actually on Jiang Qianqian's body, but they only clung to her front.
“Miss Jiang, you are quite plump, so you should dress to accentuate your strengths and avoid wearing clothes that cinch your waist as much as possible.”
"Look at this corset dress, it's perfect for you. It shows off your figure and hides all your flaws."
In fact, Jiang Qianqian's maids also knew that their young lady looked prettier in a long dress with a corset, but Jiang Qianqian preferred long dresses with a cinched waist, and the maids dared not say the truth.
“Miss Li is absolutely right. Please help me choose one from these corset dresses.”
Jiang Qianqian knew that good medicine tastes bitter. Although Li Youran's words pointed out her shortcomings, they were all true. Only in this way could she choose clothes that were truly suitable for her.
"Although the weather is getting warmer, it is still a bit chilly. In addition, Miss Jiang has some excess fat on her arms, so I suggest that she wear an outer robe."
Li Youran chose a white corset dress and a sapphire blue wide-sleeved outer robe.
"Miss Jiang looks particularly bright in blue, and with yesterday's jewelry, she must look very beautiful."
Li Youran was very satisfied with the outfit she had chosen, and looked at Jiang Qianqian with expectant eyes.
"Then I'll go and give it a try."
