"No problem, give me your measurements. The measurements might be a little inaccurate without your presence."
Ye Jiaying typed a reply skillfully and decided to go shopping for this generous girl.
"Okay sister!!! See how many days it will take to make them. If there's no queue at the store, I'll order a few more!!!"
The person on the other end was very excited and sent a string of exclamation marks.
Ye Jiaying was curious, was it necessary to be so excited?
Isn't there anyone making cheongsams in the plane where this sister lives?
She had nothing to do now, so she planned to chat with the person over there.
The girl opposite me was very cheerful, and she was very willing to talk when I asked her the reason.
While Ye Jiaying was pouring a glass of water, long paragraphs of text came over from the other side.
The girl opposite is Wu Manman. Like her, she was born in the 2000s. She particularly likes the Republic of China era and also likes the cheongsams that were popular during the Republic of China.
She said that the reason she fell in love with cheongsam was because her mother had a very beautiful cheongsam.
She was a Haishi person in her previous life. Her mother liked to wear various cheongsams since she was a child. One of them was the most beautiful and gorgeous, and was only worn at important gatherings.
But her mother treasured that cheongsam very much. She would not let her hold it every time she wore it, for fear that it would cause wrinkles. After returning home, she would carefully iron it and hang it up immediately. She would not even be allowed to touch it.
The little girl ran around behind her mother and asked her mother, "Mom, can I wear this cheongsam when I grow up?"
Her mother looked at her tenderly, smiled and said that she would make a cheongsam for her personally when she turned eighteen.
The little girl is looking forward to growing up.
Mom also didn't forget the promise she made to her.
When she was fifteen, her mother began to prepare to make a cheongsam for her.
She started with embroidery and spent two years to complete the embroidery. She was then waiting to find time to make it into a cheongsam to wear at her 18th birthday ceremony.
But she didn't wait to wear the cheongsam to her coming-of-age ceremony.
Six months before she turned eighteen, she fell ill with an acute illness. The medical level at that time was unable to save her, and she died within a month.
"Before I closed my eyes, I wanted to tell my mother that I wanted to be buried in the cheongsam she made. But seeing her hair was already gray, I didn't say it because I was afraid she would be sad."
Wu Manman’s story made Ye Jiaying sigh.
But it doesn’t feel right.
"Sister Hug, your mother loves you so much, but why are you so obsessed with the Jinxiu Cheongsam Shop? Is there any connection?"
"Well, my mother's beautiful cheongsam is made of Jinxiu. Moreover, the shop owners are my grandparents, and that cheongsam was a coming-of-age gift from them to my mother."
Ye Jiaying felt like something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what it was.
"I'm now bound to the system and doing the task of repairing the plot. I miss my parents very much, but I won't be able to see them again in this life, so I want to make a few cheongsams to carry with me. Mom learned her craft from her grandparents, and the cheongsams here don't have that same flavor, so I want you to go to Jinxiu to have them custom-made."
Looking at the text message from Wu Manman, Ye Jiaying was confused and didn't reply for a long time.
Didn’t she travel through time and space in a book? How come this world is connected to Wu Manman’s grandparents?
"Are you sure the current Jinxiu is the Jinxiu of your grandparents? They are in different dimensions, right?"
"Don't you know? Our world is made up of thousands and thousands of novels. Everyone can be the protagonist of their own novel. We are NPCs living in other novel worlds. It's just that when we complete our missions, we will not be in the same era as our relatives."
Ye Jiaying was confused. It was the first time she realized that she was once an NPC.
Falling, all sorts of mess.
She shook her head, the CPU of which was almost burned out, and asked Wu Manman.
"How do you know?"
How could she not know!
Is this the disparity in the world?
"Because I'm the one tasked with restoring the plot, I know more, hehe."
Wu Manman chuckled and sent an emoticon of a shyly scratching head.
Ye Jiaying also wanted to scratch her head, her brain was a little itchy.
It seems like he's going to grow a brain.
Wu Manman’s mission is to repair the plot, not to save the boss.
How many systems do they have?
She had always thought that all the taskers in all planes were on a mission to rescue the big boss. Now that she knew the truth, she couldn't help but call out the system little dumpling.
Xiaotuanzi only speaks when issuing tasks. No one knows what he is busy with at other times, so he will not interfere with her chat at will.
After she called him several times, he appeared in a corner of the screen.
Ye Jiaying expressed his doubts and gave a systematic explanation.
"Host, the main system is huge, and we are divided into different departments. Our system is responsible for rescue missions, and it is normal for other branches to do other tasks. It's just that our systems are not connected, so there is no way to understand the specific situation."
"What about the space shuttle? She said she couldn't see her parents again. Does that mean she didn't know about it?"
Ye Jiaying grasped the most important thing in the chaotic thoughts.
She is now working hard on the mission in order to accumulate enough merit to save her parents.
But other hosts don’t know about this thing, so can she really use it?
It’s not that she doesn’t trust the system. The system gave her a new life and there was no need to lie to her. However, saving her parents was too important to her, so she had to confirm it.
"The conditions for using the time-space shuttle are very demanding. Not all systems and hosts know about it. The main system is responsible for thousands of tasks. If everyone uses the time-space shuttle, the world will collapse."
"Then will it be okay for me to visit Wu Manman's grandparents?"
"Yes, but you can't reveal the future to them."
Ye Jiaying nodded, told Wu Manman that he would contact her later, and turned off the light curtain.
She met Wu Manman's relatives, so can anyone meet her relatives?
Then she shook her head again.
So what if they met? In order to maintain the balance of the world, there was no way they could avoid the car accident even if they met.
No wonder it was so difficult for her to get the time travel device.
If it were simple, the world would probably be in chaos.
She rubbed her face, thinking that it was useless to think too much, so she still worked hard on the task and tried to complete her wish as soon as possible.
I went to the bathroom to clean up a bit and went downstairs to eat.
When she came back, her aunt was already preparing lunch for her, and it should be almost ready by now.
Sure enough, when I walked downstairs, my aunt came to greet me.
"Second Miss, you're down. I was just about to call you. Do you want to eat now?"
Ye Jiaying nodded, and her aunt brought out the prepared meal from the kitchen.
She ate alone and didn't order much, just two dishes and a soup, which she finished quickly.
After taking a short lunch break, she took a taxi straight to the Jinxiu cheongsam shop that Wu Manman mentioned.
The cheongsam shop is in a quiet alley.
The decoration of the store was very simple and quaint. The word "Jinxiu" on the wooden plaque was powerful and majestic. The door was open and she walked in.
The store displays finished cheongsams, and various colored fabrics are arranged on the wall in order of color depth.
