Silk stockings have been around since the 13th century and were used by men.
Although today's stockings cannot be compared with the black stockings and meat stockings of later generations, white stockings can still be made.
In order to knit silk stockings, Zuo Mengeng asked Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu for advice. Unexpectedly, they really understood it.
With the help of two missionaries, Wang Xiuqin led people to study for more than two months, and finally made silk stockings similar to those of later generations.
Now worn on Xu Ruolin's legs, it stunned every woman's heart.
Even Xu Ruolin was surprised and suddenly thought that if someone saw her...
For some reason, a poem came to her mind.
【The spring night is short and the sun is rising, the king will not go to court early from now on.】
After putting on stockings, the female officer brought over the wedding dress.
"Principal Xu, this wedding dress is very troublesome to put on. Please follow my instructions."
Considering the current trend, the wedding dress designed by Zuo Menggeng is very conservative. Not only does it closely protect the area below the neck, but also the sleeves.
However, the steps to put it on are similar to those in later generations, and they all need to be buttoned at the back.
Wedding dresses in later generations mostly used women's perfect body curves to increase the beauty of the wedding dress. Now that we can't do this, we need to do something about the fabric of the wedding dress.
For example, the front part of this wedding dress is embroidered with golden phoenix and auspicious patterns using gold thread.
The pure white wedding dress with golden embroidery makes it more radiant and beautiful with the movements.
Since the back part of the wedding dress could not be made into a zipper, thin ribbons of the same color were passed through the double row of holes and finally tied up to complete the wearing.
The moment Xu Ruolin put on her wedding dress, the originally simple and elegant interior suddenly lit up, as if a holy light had descended into the world.
Xu Ruolin looked back and asked cautiously: "Is... is it okay?"
Little did they know that when they looked back, everyone's heartbeats slowed down by two beats.
"Oh my god, how can you be so beautiful?"
Xu Ruolan thought that since she believed in God and pursued good deeds throughout her life, she should have no desires and desires. But at this moment, she had the thought of wanting to replace her.
Mrs. Qiao lamented even more.
"Why didn't I have a wedding dress like this when I got married?"
Xu Ruolan carefully helped her sister tidy up her appearance and expressed emotion from the bottom of her heart.
"I thought you would have a lot of ups and downs in your life when you married far away from Shandong. Now it seems that with a husband like this, what else can you ask for?"
They are all married. Have you ever seen a man who can do this for a woman?
But after putting on the wedding dress, it's not over yet.
The female officer took out a large and exquisite jewelry box. After opening it, first there was a necklace made of pearls the size of a thumb.
"Shenzhen said that a wedding dress must be paired with a necklace like this to be perfect."
Or because the conservative wedding dress looked a bit monotonous. The addition of a bunch of expensive necklaces harmonized the effect very well.
The best of course is the diamond necklace.
But in this day and age, where can Zuo Menggeng get diamonds?
In addition to the pearl necklace, there are also specially made gemstone earrings by Zuo Mengeng.
After Xu Ruolan and Qiao helped Xu Ruolan put her hair up, they put on the two ruby necklaces, which immediately added the finishing touch.
Xu Ruolin is as warm as jade, her wedding dress is pure white and holy, and her pearl necklace is also shimmering with white light. At this time, there are two more bright reds, which immediately make this peerless beauty look more beautiful.
Like a rainbow when the sky clears after the rain, it carries a refreshing beauty.
But something appeared that made Xu Ruolan and Qiao even more crazy.
The female officer once again took out a wooden box, and when she opened it, it turned out to be a pair of shoes they had never seen before.
It’s hard to tell how these shoes are made, but they are all white and gracefully integrated from heel to toe, especially the thin high heels at the back.
The toe of the shoe is inlaid with pearls, and just holding it in your hand makes people marvel at its exquisiteness.
The female officer picked up Xu Ruolin's slender feet and carefully put them into her shoes. After both of them were put on, she supported her and said, "You can stand up now."
These are high heels designed by Zuo Mengeng.
Wang Weiran provided so much cowhide, which became the best raw material. The method of making leather shoes is not difficult, and lacquer making can also be done under his guidance.
When Xu Ruolin was still sitting, Xu Ruolan and Qiao didn't feel anything. They just felt that this pair of shoes they had never seen before was very beautiful and very suitable for women.
But when Xu Ruolin stood up and put on her wedding dress, the two of them immediately forgot to breathe.
Visible to the naked eye, Xu Ruolin seems completely different from before.
She was already tall, but now it seems that the lines of her entire body are exaggeratedly perfect.
For some reason, when they saw Xu Ruolin's appearance at this time, they all thought of the most precious porcelain vase in their home.
The beauty of the arc presented by Xu Ruolin is even more beautiful than that of the porcelain vase.
The female officer is still teaching conscientiously.
"When walking in these shoes, you must pay attention to your center of gravity. The stride length should not be too large. Pay attention to raising your head, sinking your shoulders, and tightening your abdomen. When walking, you must put your front feet on the ground and walk with your knees straight."
Xu Ruolin wore high heels for the first time, and it took her a long time just to stand firm. When she tried to take the first step, her whole heart was hanging.
Following the instructions of the female officer, she landed slowly on the soles of her front feet, and then her pointed heels touched the ground. The small contact area made her stagger and almost fall.
But after walking for more than ten steps and getting used to the characteristics of high heels, Xu Ruolin immediately liked the feeling.
Because of the increased perspective brought by high heels, she felt that the world in front of her seemed different.
Especially when the female officer pulled over the floor mirror and asked her to check it herself, Xu Ruolin felt dizzy.
She is probably the first person in the world to be frightened by her own beauty.
But there were two jealous people next to them, their eyes fixed on Xu Ruolin's high heels, eager to snatch them away.
Although the wedding dress is also very beautiful, they are already married and there is no reason to wear it again.
What about high heels?
I really want to own a pair!
The female officer was also very satisfied with her handiwork and suggested: "The seat is outside, why don't you wear it and let him have a look?"
Xu Ruolin turned into a rose with shame.
"Wouldn't it look good?"
Xu Ruolan and Qiao Shi spit out sour water.
"If you don't look good, we'll all become the old gangsters. Let's go around and let everyone see a different bride."
Xu Ruolin couldn't resist them and was pulled to the front.
At this time, the main hall of Xu Mansion was very lively.
Zuo Mengeng was presenting gifts one by one, and every item was quite popular with everyone in the Xu family.
"I have heard that Master Taishan is well versed in the art of war. My son-in-law is a military commander, but I have no respect for him. I would like to present my humble work and ask Master Taishan to correct it."
Zuo Menggeng gave his "On War" as a gift to Xu Ji.
Xu Ji never served as an official in his life, but he was quite accomplished in calendar, agricultural administration and military art.
Since the Xu family advocates frugality and does not like luxury, Zuo Mengeng put a lot of thought into gifts.
Holding "On War" in his hand, although he had not yet studied it, Xu Ji was very happy and finally liked Zuo Menggeng.
"Zhong Heng is a famous general in the world. Not only has he killed the enemy successfully, but he has also written books and handed them down to the world. He has become a family of his own. He will definitely leave his name in history in the future."
If Zuo Menggeng said that he had written some Confucian classics, the Xu family would probably sneer at him and not think that he had that knowledge.
But as the only famous general who defeated Hou Jin, his military skills are definitely trustworthy.
And Zuo Mengeng donated his hard work to Xu Ji, and this affection is naturally priceless.
Because of the investigation done beforehand, every gift given by Zuo Mengeng was to his liking and won the hearts of the people. For a time, the impression of the entire Xu family on the new son-in-law had undergone earth-shaking changes.
When Xu Ruolin and others came out, the last gift happened to be presented.
This gift was so big that it required seven or eight people to open the central door of the main hall of Xu Mansion before bringing it in.
Well, this is a piano.
The world's second piano, freshly made.
The first one was placed in Linqing and became the forbidden love of Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu.
When the piano was made, it conquered everyone immediately.
His outstanding sound effects and melody expression ability far surpassed that of any musical instrument, and he instantly won the love of everyone.
Thinking of coming to Xu Mansion to get married, Zuo Menggeng decided to bring a piano as the most outstanding gift.
Seeing such a big object, everyone in the Xu Mansion felt dizzy.
Fortunately, I am well-informed and can recognize it.
"It seems like Hapsicod, but different."
It turns out that there was a harpsichord in the Jesuit church in Songjiang. It was usually used as an accompaniment when people in the church sang hymns.
But obviously, the harpsichord is far less beautiful than the piano, both in terms of sound and appearance.
But no matter how beautiful the instrument was, when Xu Ruolin stepped out, it was completely eclipsed and reduced to a supporting role.
"The bride is coming out!"
Mr. Qiao led the way first, then stepped aside, revealing the most breathtaking light!
In an instant, Zuo Mengeng lost his ability to think and seemed to have fallen into eternity.
It was obvious that he had created the beauty himself, but he failed to live up to expectations.
His chaotic and intoxicated heart had lost control, and he couldn't help but move his steps towards Pingping Tingting's beloved.
