Chapter 275 Zheng Jingyi feels guilty
"Xianxian, to tell you the truth, Miss Xia Qiuhui from the Xia family is my brother's fiancée. They have been together for many years, and this is the official date for the two families to finalize the marriage."
Zheng Jingyi's face was filled with smiles. "If everything goes well, my brother will be getting married by the end of the year!"
"Really?"
Lin Xianxian was overjoyed. This was truly a happy event.
"That's great, congratulations, Brother Zheng!
When he gets married, I will definitely give him a wedding gift!"
The two girls talked for a while, and Lin Xianxian asked Zheng Jingyi to order a dress custom-made. After all, wearing clothes for high-end occasions is a stepping stone to success.
Although she had the task of opening a new store, she was not in a hurry at all because Jiang Cheng would take care of it.
Zheng Jingyi grew up in Beijing and knew very well which chef had the best craftsmanship. She told Lin Xianxian everything without hesitation.
"There's a Master Zhou at No. 79 Wangjiang Road. His craftsmanship is superb. We all have our clothes custom-made by him. Let's go there. I'll take you to get to know him, and then you can make clothes there in the future."
"Ah!"
Lin Xianxian had never expected that making a piece of clothing would require some foundation. If she had gone to the door rashly, she would probably be treated as an unknown person and turned away.
Arriving at Wangjiang Road, Zheng Jingyi took Lin Xianxian's hand and went straight to the tailor shop. The whole shop was decorated extremely luxuriously, like a palace, and the windows were filled with all kinds of high-end dresses.
"Miss Zheng, how come you have time to come to my place today?"
Tailor Zhou is in his teens, with a perpetual smile on his face. He is not only a clerk but also the boss, and all those top-notch dresses are made by him.
His shop is a long-established shop handed down from his ancestors. During the Republic of China period, popular movie actresses would ask his father for their battle uniforms. Now, if those powerful people wear his clothes to attend evening parties, it is like putting gold on their faces.
"Boss Zhou, I'm here to make clothes for you. This is my sister, Lin Xianxian, a businesswoman in Beijing. Please help her design a dress. She's going to the Xia family's birthday party tomorrow evening!"
Boss Zhou nodded. He couldn't help but look at Lin Xianxian with respect. Those who could make friends with the Zheng family were no ordinary people.
He looked at Lin Xianxian carefully. She had a very good figure and face. He already knew that if she wore the clothes designed by him, she would definitely look even more beautiful.
He took out a thick sample book. Each skirt was very unique and could quickly catch people's attention. Lin Xianxian couldn't help but touch it. The samples were actually smaller versions of the skirts. The texture of each skirt was very fine.
He pointed to a red sequined top spliced with a black long gauze dress, with a circle of black fur on the cuffs, which was a very eye-catching piece.
"Oh my god, can I even pull off a dress like this?"
Lin Xianxian covered her lips excitedly. She was so beautiful that she felt a little unworthy.
"Ms. Lin, please trust me, Zhou. You are a natural beauty, and only this dress can fully bring out your beauty!"
Boss Zhou smiled confidently. This dress would not only make Miss Lin dazzling, but would also bring his store's reputation to a higher level.
"Yes, Xianxian, you have to trust Boss Zhou's judgment. If he says it's right, it's definitely right!"
Lin Xianxian smiled and nodded, and with the help of Boss Zhou and Zheng Jingyi, she decided to buy the dress. Zheng Jingyi also chose a dress with gray and white trim.
The total cost of materials and labor was two thousand yuan. Lin Xianxian felt it was too expensive, but she still paid it all in one go. After all, the circle of wealthy women was not that expensive.
In the 1980s, you could buy a house with two thousand yuan, and she was wearing the house on her body.
