When Fu Yunxi saw the woman's expression, he knew that the deal was secure.
So she took out a fashionable cheongsam and said to the lady, "I think this cheongsam suits you very well. You can try it."
The cheongsam that Fu Yunxi brought for the lady had some lace hidden on the sleeves, which made it look neither exaggerated nor ingenious, and cleverly added a touch of youthfulness.
The lady felt that there were too many coquettish and slutty women out there, and her husband had recently brought home a young concubine, which hinted in both explicit and implicit ways that she was getting old and ugly.
If she wears this dress, she will look more charming but still dignified. I believe the master will be dazzled when he sees her.
"This one is also nice." The lady was in a good mood and no longer worried about the price. As the saying goes, money can't buy what you love!
She took the clothes to a small separate room to try them on, and when she came out she looked at herself in a peep show and was very satisfied with the clothes she was wearing.
"I want both of them. Do you have any clothes suitable for the old lady? My old lady's birthday is in a few days, and I want to give her a piece of clothing." This lady is the wife of the Gu family and also Gu Nancheng's biological mother.
Fu Yunxi took out a dark-colored dress with a crabapple pattern and handed it to Madam Gu, saying, "The material of this cheongsam is more comfortable, and it has hidden buttons on the side, so it is more convenient for you to put on and take off."
Mrs. Gu touched and held the cheongsam, obviously very interested in its design.
Fu Yunxi took out another fur and handed it to her, saying, "If the weather is a little cold, you can pair it with a black fur. The two are matching, and the fur can be fixed to the cheongsam with hidden buttons, so it won't fall off easily."
"I want all those pieces." Mrs. Gu didn't even ask the price before deciding. The clothes cost a total of five hundred silver notes. "Old Madam, please help me alter this dress. It's a little too long. I'll have it delivered to the Gu Mansion on Lan Street in three days."
"My tailor will fix it, and I'll have someone send it to you when the time comes." Fu Yunxi promised, with a calm expression on her face, which made people inexplicably convinced.
However, after the previous contact, Mrs. Gu actually liked Fu Yunxi very much.
Seeing that Fu Yunxi was about to arrange for other people to go, she said first, "Why don't you send it over yourself, and I will introduce you to other ladies."
Seeing how enthusiastic Mrs. Gu was, Fu Yunxi naturally agreed. However, if she wanted to attend the old lady's birthday party, she had to prepare a gift. After all, even though others didn't mention it, she had to show due courtesy.
This evening, after Fu Yun returned to the Jiang family, he brought clothes from his own store to everyone, but he did not tell them that the store was his.
Old Mrs. Jiang was naturally happy that her granddaughter-in-law was so filial. Others had never seen clothes of this style before and couldn't let go of them.
It is said that what women love most is clothes, and sure enough, everyone who received the clothes had a smile on their face.
Lian Jiang's mother looked at Fu Yunxi in agreement and said, "You should dress yourself up more. This will help you stay with Yulin."
She used to think that although she was a good wife in other aspects, she just couldn't attract men's attention.
Fu Yunxi just listened to what she said in one ear and out the other.
Women always dress nicely for themselves, why should they please others?
No matter how beautifully they dress, men will still welcome new concubines one after another.
Fu Yunxi exchanged a few more words before returning to his room to rest, while Jiang Yulin had also been busy all day, so neither of them spoke much and both went to rest.
——
Three days later.
Liu Xuening started to wash and dress early in the morning and put on her most beautiful dress.
The pink dress makes her look even more delicate, like a flower in bud waiting to be picked.
Gu Nancheng had already sent someone to pick her up in a car, and they were waiting at the entrance of the brothel. So after Liu Xuening got in the car, she saw the envious eyes of the sisters in the brothel. Although her face was calm, she couldn't suppress the joy in her heart.
The driver also looked at the woman in the back seat a few more times. Since the young marshal asked him to pick someone up, this person might become his concubine in the future.
The woman was indeed very beautiful. The driver thought, no wonder the young marshal liked her!
When Liu Xuening saw the driver looking at her, she did not look sullen. Instead, she spoke to the driver very gently, trying to find out what taboos the old lady had.
The driver was touched to see that Liu Xuening did not look down on him as a servant, but he was just a driver and did not have much contact with the old lady on weekdays. He just said that the old lady liked to worship Buddha.
Liu Xuening's eyes flashed and she took note of it secretly.
In the store, Fu Yunxi checked the clothes to be sent to Gu Mansion several times. Seeing that there was no problem, he put the clothes in exquisite paper bags.
Then she prepared another jade bracelet for herself as a birthday gift.
No matter what time or age, jade is considered a relatively decent gift. Even if the old lady doesn't like it very much, she will not dislike it.
In addition, Fu Yunxi had no intention of currying favor with anyone, he just wanted to treat it as a visit to an ordinary family.
After finishing all this, Fu Yunxi hailed a rickshaw and asked the driver to take her to the gate of Gu's mansion.
When the nanny beside Mrs. Gu saw someone coming, she quickly took her to the lady's room.
After all, this was a birthday gift she was going to give to the old lady, so before sending it out, she had to personally check whether the cheongsam was suitable.
When Mrs. Gu saw that the cheongsam had been modified according to her requirements, she was very satisfied and felt that the old lady would definitely like this dress.
The other guests were waiting outside, only Fu Yunxi was sitting in the inner hall with Mrs. Gu, and the two of them chatted again.
"Then come out with me." Seeing that the time was almost up, Mrs. Gu said to Fu Yunxi, and they walked towards the garden.
The design of the Gu Mansion is very artistic, with small bridges and rockery everywhere, and the roads are also winding.
Just by looking at their mansions, one can tell the wealth of different families, for example, the Jiang family is far inferior to the Gu family.
There were already many noble ladies and gentlemen sitting in the garden, which was similar to the spring banquet that Fu Yunxi had held in the palace before.
Of course, there are also many men who went to another place for fun, and they are now accompanied by Gu Nancheng.
One man among them stood out particularly. He just sat there quietly, but he gave people a sense of oppression.
His eyes were looking into the distance, as if he was looking at something.
"Our Admiral Qiao will notice the woman sooner or later. Let me see who she is." A man with shiny hair next to him said.
Qiao Mochen's expression remained calm. He turned his head and said, "Just taking a look."
He saw a woman's back that looked familiar, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances.
