She pointed to one of the Tencel brocades and said, "That's it."
It was a lotus green material. Generally speaking, most daughters in the boudoir would not choose this material. Because the green lotus color is very attractive, it is easy for ordinary daughters to look too old-fashioned in this color. If there is no extravagance, wearing this color will be even more overwhelming and very ugly.
Chen Rou Qiu's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled, "Why did Xiao Wu choose such a dark color, the girls must wear bright and bright ones, like your two older sisters. Such dark colors are probably a bit old-fashioned."
"Not bad." Ren Wanyun followed suit. Although she also likes to see people in the big room make a fool of herself, this lotus green color is too out of line. If they were seen by outsiders, they thought that the girls of the Shen family were all old-fashioned and Qing’er had to show off her skills at the chrysanthemum banquet, how could she be dragged back by Shen Miao
Shen Yue and Shen Qing laughed secretly. Shen Qing said: "I think this lotus green is pretty good too. Didn't Fifth Sister never wear such a dark color? Give it a try, I heard that this color is also very expensive."
"If I hadn't already picked the material, I would definitely have to try the lotus green color." Shen Yue said with a smile.
Liniang looked at the two daughters of the Shen family who were sweet-smelling swordsmen, and then looked at Shen Miao who looked calm and sighed in her heart. Shen Miao, the eldest daughter of the Shen family, Shen Xin, was stupid and ignorant, and no one in the Ding capital knew about it. But who knew that the two cousins who were kind and gentle on the outside had such a vicious heart? It was also a trick to make Shen Miao embarrassed.
She had some sympathy for Shen Miao, General Shen was defending the family and the country outside, but her own daughter was tricked by her relatives in the mansion, it was really pitiful. Thinking of this, she said politely: "This lotus green is indeed a bit too solemn. If you are viewing a chrysanthemum feast, you might as well choose some relaxed colors. Why don't you choose this jade white one?"
Shen Miao glanced at Liniang, she was a rare sincere person. She had reminded herself like this in her previous life, but at that time Shen Miao believed in her two cousins and aunts wholeheartedly and did not listen to her words at all. Wen Yan thanked him politely: "No need, I just like this lotus green material."
When she answered like this, Shen Qing and Shen Yue, who had frowned just now, breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Yue smiled and said, "The fifth sister's eyes are really good, so I will trouble Lady Li to tailor clothes for us."
Liniang sighed slightly in her heart, but she couldn't say anything more. Then, according to his words, he came to measure up for a few young ladies.
From the beginning to the end, the old lady Shen was reclining on the couch with her eyes closed, as if she had never heard of what was in front of her. As long as it was about silver, she was always happy to pretend she didn't know. Today, the tailoring and fabrics are all from the public, and the money in the public is left to Ren Wanyun to manage.
After finishing measuring the clothes, Liniang left. Ren Wan Yun just smiled and said: "The children are all big girls, our Shen residence girls can't be looked down upon when they go out. I made some jewelry for a few girls, which will be available on the day of the chrysanthemum banquet. "After speaking, she instructed Xiang Lan behind her to bring out several boxes, one for Shen Qing and one for Shen Miao.
Shen Miao’s box was heavy and Ren Wan Yun looked at her with a very loving tone: “Second Aunt sees that you are busy preparing for the examination of Guangwen Tang these days, when you go to the jewelry store, you are called according to the best I just hope you like it."
On the high seat, Old Shen Furen frowned, as if she wanted to open her eyes, but after a pause, she continued to sleep.
“Thank you Second Aunt,” Shen Miao also returned the salute. Shen Qing and Shen Yue could choose their own styles and send them back, but they didn't bring her with them when they visited the shop, and they pretended to be unwilling to disturb them.
“Then let’s go back and take a look first,” Shen Yue pulled Chen Rou Qiu and winked at Shen Miao, “The fifth sister’s jewelry must be the most important one.”
Shen Miao smiled slightly and did not speak.
After returning to the Western Courtyard, Shen Miao threw the box aside without looking at it carefully. When Jing Zhe saw this, he wondered, "Don't you open it, girl?"
“What is there to see? What is the difference between horizontal and vertical?” Shen Miao replied without turning her head.
I was shocked to say something, every time I got the jewelry from the second and third rooms, my girl couldn't put it down. Unfortunately, even from their servants, it can be seen that the jewelry is really a nouveau riche. Shen Miao was brought into an exaggerated temperament by the second room and the third room, and her favorite was these rather tacky gold and silver.
Shen Miao thought for a while and then reached out and opened the box.
As soon as it was opened, a golden light came to the face. Inside are bracelets and collars made of gold and silver, and even hairpins. The ruby on top is quite large, but the quality is very poor.
Jing Zhe couldn't help showing a hint of anger.
Shen Miao almost laughed. These things, before she got married, her jewelry was like this. Such gold hairpins and silver collars are not even worn by girls in the countryside. She often wears brightly colored clothes and those golden jewelry, like a moving box. In front of the gentle and graceful Shen Yue and the generous and bright Shen Qing, she was really like a foot-washing maid.
Now that these things fell in front of Shen Miao, it was really ridiculous. Jing Zhe observed his own girl and was surprised to find that she did not show the same excited expression as before. Just when she was surprised, she saw Shen Miao closing the box and pushing it to Jing Zhe, “Find a pawnshop to pawn and buy a silver hairpin to come back, it doesn’t need to be too good, it’s fine to engrave it.”
"Girl..." Jing Zhe said in surprise, "It's just like that, if it is discovered by the people in the East Court, it will inevitably be used as a raft." Although she was also very happy that Shen Miao finally did not like these gold and silver as before, but this Acting like this is still too bold.
“Since these jewelry can no longer be worn, what is the use of keeping them, it is better to use them as real money, it is always more convenient to do things on weekdays.” Shen Miao replied lightly. Everything must be practical, which is what she realized when she was a queen. The Shen residence gave monthly silver in proportion to each month, and each girl was given two taels of silver per month. However, how much were Shen Yue and Shen Qing subsidized by their own families? Shen Miao did not know, but one thing was certain, after all she did not have that subsidy.
She was clearly a girl from the general's mansion, but she was not as generous as the two older sisters. She used to think that it was because the second and third aunts were willing to subsidize their daughters, but now
Ren Wanyun controls all the money of the public, but Shen Gui and Shen Wan usually manage affairs in the court and the middle, their salary is not enough, where is there any extra spare money.
It was Shen Xin, because he used his own life and blood and sweat to gallop on the battlefield, His Majesty gave many rewards, and these rewards, Shen Xin never pocketed, were all given to Gongzhong.
With their family's money, they treat themselves like this, such a shameless person, only the old lady's family can do it.
She was always trying to find a way to break up.
