It was like treating a sister who would never grow up, as if Helan Minzhi should not be exposed to or know those difficult, obscure, and shameful things.
He likes to show his good and positive side to his sister Minzhi, at least he looks like a good brother.
He knew that the colorful world in Helan Minzhi's life was very small. She was sensitive, had low self-esteem, and lived cautiously. In fact, he knew all this.
He saw through her little thoughts, but instead of exposing them, he protected them with all his heart.
Perhaps he himself did not realize that he had been so good to Helan Minzhi.
"Welcome to our shop. Would you like to make clothes or buy cloth?" The proprietress of Jinyu Silk was a beautiful woman in her thirties. She was leaning lazily on the counter, looking at the two people who came in with a sidelong glance.
Helan Min looked up and down at the proprietress whose tone was not welcoming, and looked around. It seemed that there were no customers, and there was a gloomy atmosphere.
"Clothing." Yu Seung-ho gave the answer.
He had heard of the proprietress of Jinyu Silk. No one knew her original name. It seemed like she had appeared out of nowhere in Funing City in recent years. Everyone called her Yuniang. It was said that she was a young and beautiful widow whose husband died on their wedding night. She used her husband's family's money to open a silk shop. Her craftsmanship was pretty good, but she didn't like people and had a strange rule - she didn't sell clothes to men.
When Yu Seung-ho heard what those people said, it was really a joke. Since he opened a store selling clothes, how could he not sell clothes to people? Although most of the people who came to buy clothes were women, there were also many men who bought clothes. Wasn't he one of them?
Sure enough, Yu Niang fiddled with the hairpin in her bun, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "Sir, our shop doesn't do business with men. Haven't you heard of this?"
Jinyu Silk is quite famous in Funing City. One reason is that Yu Niang is beautiful, and another reason is that she has excellent craftsmanship.
So Yu Niang had some confidence in saying this.
"Jinyu Silk is very famous, so of course I've heard of this rule," Yu Chenghao said with a polite laugh. "It's not me who's making the clothes, it's my sister. It's her birthday in two days, so I'm going to make two dresses for her."
Hearing this, Yu Niang's eyes suddenly flashed twice, but soon returned to normal. She smiled and said, "It's to make clothes for this girl."
Yu Niang looked at Helan Minzhi, who looked a little timid. She didn't know what she was thinking about, but her eyes became softer. She took out a booklet from the counter and waved to Helan Minzhi: "Come over and take a look. What style do you want to choose?"
Yu Niang's album was very thick and contained many styles of clothes. Helan Minzhi was dazzled for a moment.
Yu Seung-ho pointed to one of the more elegant styles and said, "Min-ji, what do you think of this one?"
Minzhi...
The smile on Yu Niang's lips suddenly froze. She stared blankly at Helan Minzhi, who was seriously considering the style, and suddenly and eagerly asked, "Is your surname Helan?"
Helan Minzhi was stunned for a moment when she was suddenly asked the question, then she looked at Yu Seung-ho. The Queen Mother had said that one must not reveal one's identity when leaving the palace, but she was not very good at lying.
"Boss, you are such a joker. This is my sister. How could her last name be Helan? That's the royal family's last name." Yu Seung-ho laughed dryly and came to Helan Minzhi's rescue.
"Oh...it's your sister." Yu Niang couldn't hide her disappointment in her tone, but she soon smiled again and pointed to the other side, saying, "Over there are all the fabrics in the shop. Once you've chosen the ones you like, go over there and choose the fabrics. I'm still stewing soup upstairs, so go take a look first. Feel free to go."
After saying this, Yu Niang went upstairs and sat down at the end of the stairs. She sat there blankly, tears streaming down her cheeks.
downstairs.
"What color do you like?"
Yu Seung-ho looked at the dazzling array of fabrics, not knowing where to start.
"Hmm..." Helan Minzhi had never told Yu Seung-ho what she liked or her other hobbies. After thinking for a long time, she still didn't know what color she liked.
She just thought that the gardenias outside the palace where she lived bloomed beautifully every year, so she said, "White."
"White..." Yu Seungho raised an eyebrow. White was a bit unlucky and not suitable for wearing on a birthday. "How about red? After all, you're going to wear it on your birthday."
Helan Minzhi didn't say anything. It turned out that he already knew that she went out of the palace to buy clothes for her birthday. People in the palace didn't like her, and she didn't want to please them to make clothes for her.
Yu Seung-ho knew it all, but he never exposed it, protecting Helan Minzhi's sensitive and inferior soul.
She stared at the flashy red suit Yoo Seung-ho was wearing. She had never tried this style before and pondered it thoughtfully for a moment. Although she didn't like such a flashy color, it didn't seem unacceptable to her.
"Red, then."
"Okay, what do you think of this one?" Yu Seung-ho took out a piece of cloth, a light red satin, which made the skin look snow-white when held in the hand.
"It looks good." Helan Minzhi gave the true answer in his heart.
I have to say that the fabrics of Jinyu Silk are all of top quality, with excellent touch and color.
"Have you made your choice, young master or young lady?" Yu Niang had regained her composure when she came down from upstairs.
"Take this one." Yu Seung-ho then said.
Yu Niang looked at the cloth in their hands, smiled, and said, "What a coincidence! The style you just chose, Miss, I just happened to have a sample made of this fabric. Miss, you can try the sample first."
Yu Chenghao raised his eyebrows and looked at Helan Minzhi. The person being looked at said, "Then give it a try."
