Yun Qiuchen glanced at Ren Yaoqi, a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and said to Yun Qiuping and Yun Qiufang, "Since my cousin Ren has chosen for me, my second and third sisters will go and choose next."
Then he turned to Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin and said, "Let's go to the inner room to try it on. If it doesn't fit, let the tailor make some changes."
In reality, when making clothes, each family would first select the fabric and then the style, and then have the tailor make them. It was inconvenient for the Yun family to wait until the clothes were made and then choose the style. The Yun family did this simply to make Xiao Jinglin feel that the Yun family cared about her and valued her.
Xiao Jinglin's selection of clothes seemed random, but the two pieces with flying phoenix and phoenix patterns perfectly matched her status. Although the imperial court's control over the people's clothing was no longer as strict as it was at the founding of the country, and the court could no longer control the trivialities of Yanbei, aristocratic families like the Yun family still attached great importance to these rules.
Otherwise, Xiao Jinglin was taller than them all, and it would be bad if she chose something that didn't fit her. It was obvious that what Xiao Jinglin chose was exactly what the Yun family had prepared for her.
As for the young ladies of the Yun family, their figures are similar, so even if there is something that doesn't fit, it can be altered.
Yun Qiuchen asked her two younger sisters to pick out the clothes while she took Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi to the inner room to try them on. Sure enough, the two pieces Xiao Jinglin picked out were perfect fits.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't resist the invitation and tried on the pink dress. Unexpectedly, Yun Qiuchen was stunned when she came out. Then he smiled and said, "My cousin Ren has fair skin. This dress really looks good on her."
Ren Yaoqi had actually chosen this dress because the color looked fresh and beautiful. However, she also knew she probably wouldn't be able to wear it because her grandmother would dislike the frivolous color and it wouldn't fit her image as the eldest daughter of the Yun family. However, her mother saw how much she liked it and had the sewing team make an extra dress, saying it wouldn't be a big deal to wear at home.
I didn't expect that when it was worn by Ren Yaoqi, that frivolous look was suppressed, making her look lively and pretty, more beautiful than flowers.
Xiao Jinglin looked at Ren Yaoqi for a few times and nodded, "Not bad." Princess Xiao rarely praised others, so her words were dry and perfunctory.
Ren Yaoqi pursed her lips and smiled, obeying Yun Qiuchen's request to try on the real purple dress. It must be said that Ren Yaoqi's vision was still very accurate. The two dresses she chose were both chosen by Yun Qiuchen, and neither of them was prepared for the Qianjin Banquet.
Purple clothes make one look noble, but they are also very picky about the wearer's temperament, otherwise the color cannot be suppressed.
Ren Yaoqi is good-looking, has an outstanding temperament and is calm, so she is the only one who chooses clothes. No clothes choose her.
Yun Qiuchen came over and checked her waist. "You and I are similar in stature, so there shouldn't be any need for modification. What do you think?"
Ren Yaoqi nodded, then smiled and said, "Thank you, cousin."
Yun Qiuchen smiled gently, "You're welcome. This is fate. I think you'd be better off wearing that pink dress at the Qianjin Banquet."
Just as Ren Yaoqi was about to answer, a calm-looking maid walked in and reported to Yun Qiuchen, "Miss. The eldest and second young masters are here."
Yun Qiuchen was startled, glanced at Xiao Jinglin, and then nodded calmly: "Got it, take the eldest and second brothers to sit in the side hall first. I'll be there later."
