After sailing for two days and one night, they could no longer see the situation on the shore. Even in front, behind, left and right, all they could see was endless sea water. At this time, they were far away from the shore and slowly walked into the deep sea. The ships around them were becoming increasingly scarce, and they could only occasionally see a ship passing by in a certain direction. The route they were taking now was a safe route that had been traversed by countless ships before.
This route is very safe, there will be no hidden stones or woodcutters. Seeing that the sun is still bright today, Wang Shiyu took out the neck satin and silk she had prepared, and started cutting them directly by the window.
This time, the wedding dress she designed was also in the style of a Confucian skirt. She planned to use brocade for the lining, and silk for the outer garment with wide sleeves. It would also be slightly longer and have a train, but the train would not be too long, as embroidery would take too long.
She thought about the embroidery on the clothes for a long time, and finally decided to use a butterfly playing with a peony. Normally, a phoenix playing with a peony would be the best, but unfortunately, the phoenix pattern is not allowed now, so she can only use the butterfly playing with a peony. Some cloud-like patterns are embroidered around it, and the other cuffs are decorated with pomegranates or bats, as well as precious elephant patterns and other patterns. These patterns are done on the cuffs. This is not only auspicious, but also serves as an embellishment, and will not steal the limelight from the butterfly playing with a peony.
However, although the pattern of butterflies playing with peonies is simpler and also looks good, it is not as beautiful as the dragon and phoenix. At the same time, she also thought that if it really doesn't work, she would just embroider cranes. Embroidering cranes on wedding dresses is also the mainstream in the Dazhou Dynasty. The main reason is that there is too much white space in the cranes, so Wang Shiyu doesn't like to embroider cranes very much. The cranes are snow-white all over, and it always feels weird to embroider them on wedding dresses.
After cutting the clothes, she took out the rice paper and started to draw carefully. Finally, she chose the butterfly playing with peony from the drawings of butterfly playing with peony and crane as the main embroidery of her wedding dress. She originally wanted to choose the crane, which looks very beautiful with its fairy-like air, but in the end, she chose the butterfly playing with peony with a Chinese heart.
At the same time, she needs to design her forbidden steps and various sachets around her waist by herself. These are not difficult for Wang Shiyu. After all, she makes these things. The forbidden steps need to be woven with jade of relatively good quality. She does not have the best jade here, so she has to think of other ways.
She actually didn't have much jade in her hands, most of them were finished products, so if she wanted good ones, she would have to wait and see, and find some better jade, or she could find a way to go to Jeju Island and take out the gold, silver and jewelry left by the Zhang family on Jeju Island. There was a box of top-quality jade in it, and because it was too valuable, the Zhang family sank the boxes directly to the bottom of the sea.
Wang Shiyu really knew about it, but she had never been there, because Wang Shiyu used to think that this thing belonged to the Wang family, but now she doesn’t have such an idea. After all, the Wang family wanted her life, and she still wanted to die for them. Isn’t that crazy and shameless?
So she had already formed some details in her mind about the idea of going to Jeju Island, and she needed to add some more. At the same time, she also needed to get rid of the people who followed him, which was not easy. After all, the Zhang family did things late at night. The reason why Wang Shiyu knew about it was that Aniu was free that day and stayed on Jeju Island. As a result, when these people came out carrying the boxes, he discovered them, followed them out to take a look, and then he took note of them.
At the same time, the crown and tassels she will wear on her wedding day also need to be prepared by her parents' family. Wang Shiyu does not think that Mo Ruru has the ability to prepare a pure gold crown for her wedding, so she needs to prepare the crown herself, and she can even choose her favorite style.
After choosing the pattern she needed to embroider on the clothes on the drawing, she opened a new piece of rice paper and wanted to make her own flower crown for the clothes. Designing a flower crown depends on personal fate, and Wang Shiyu finally chose the Albizia julibrissin as the main body of her flower crown.
At the same time, the surroundings are decorated with nimble and light-moving butterflies and various movable small acacia flowers designed with filigree craftsmanship. The tassels on both sides are strung with coral beads to replace pearls and jade beads, and the velvet flowers on top are also bright red velvet flowers to embellish the entire hair crown.
Although she had a good idea, she changed it again and again when drawing the blueprint, because she always felt that the design was not quite consistent with her idea. The hair crown she wanted could not be too heavy. After all, if it was too heavy, the person's scalp would feel numb. It would be a waste to use the whole piece of gold to make a hair crown.
She married Yu Xiuming as his legal wife, so naturally she could wear all kinds of velvet flowers on her head. Red velvet flowers were not only expensive, but also difficult to make, so the money she had to spend on them was naturally not small.
The lily crown made of gold is not too heavy, or it is not an assembly line product that is directly cast from a mold.
Instead, I want the blacksmith to hand-forge the petals of the cassia flower individually, then slowly use gold and silver to draw out the stamens, and then assemble them together and slowly glue them into a crown. This not only tests the craftsman's craftsmanship, but also wastes more time, so preparations have to be started in advance.
So after Wang Shiyu finished the design, she put the drawings away for the time being. She still needed to discuss the details with the master of the gold and silver shop, because the crown needed to be decorated with various velvet flowers, so it could not be made in a short time.
Under normal circumstances, after a girl is born, families with a wealthy financial situation will start designing a hair crown for their daughter to wear when she gets married. However, their family situation is rather special after all, so if they want to make this hair crown, they still have to urge the masters of the jewelry store. Wang Shiyu is determined to get this hair crown. After all, it is the first hair crown she designed, and it looks very beautiful. She can even pass it on to her daughter in the future.
