Although Zhou Gu didn't know the price of these fabrics, what could be the price of the fabrics leaked from the royal palace? Even a blind man could tell that the fabrics Su Rong selected were worth a lot of money if he reached out and touched them.
He had been living in the Prefect's Mansion for a while, and he understood that the eldest lady was tolerant of everything about Su Rong, except for her Yueyin, he was very serious about her, saying that she was making money randomly, and he didn't understand her before.
How the daughter's family can make money makes the eldest wife disgusted when she mentions it. Now she has seen how money can be made in this way.
It is indeed made!
Even if the Duke Protector's Palace, his grandmother and mother only made him a few sets of clothes every time the seasons changed. They never made such a large sum of money as twenty sets at once. If the whole family made them like this, it would be a big deal.
What does it look like to be a prodigal?
The expression on Zhou Gu's face was so obvious that Su Rong understood it immediately.
She pressed her forehead and turned her face, thinking that she had forgotten. She seemed to have told Zhou Gu that she was short of money, but she didn't say that it was before. She had to support too many people and couldn't make ends meet, but these two years were different.
Now, those people she raised have all grown up, and each of them can make money for her. She doesn’t say that she is as rich as the country, but in Jiangning, she is not much worse than the number one wealthy businessman, and that wealthy businessman is over fifty.
Now, she is only fifteen. In a few years, she will be the richest man in Jiangzhou or even Daliang.
But even so, she was still willing to spend the dowry prepared by the eldest lady for her, and she was willing to see the eldest lady's heartbroken face with evil intentions.
But apparently, her fiancé seemed to have misunderstood.
She looked at the twenty pieces of cloth she had selected, and was reluctant to give them away. After all, they were all selected with great effort, so she simply said to Zhou Gu decisively: "I finally selected them, how can I not take them all?"
?”
She made the final decision, "Listen to me, keep them all, you can keep them and wear them slowly."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for him to speak again, she pointed at the fabrics and told the shopkeeper domineeringly, "Let's make ten sets of these first and make ready-made clothes. They can be worn before early autumn. Take these fabrics away directly and keep them for him."
You can wear them again in late autumn. One piece of cloth can make two sets of clothes. You can wear them from late autumn to next spring. You won’t be able to wear them next year, and they won’t be worn the year after that. Anyway, they won’t get damaged.”
The shopkeeper smiled and nodded, "Okay, it's a rare good material. If you don't save more, you may not know when it will be available again. Miss Qi, you are right."
Su Rong was so happy when she was praised, "That's it."
Zhou Gu saw her talking to the shopkeeper one by one, and she was very skilled at it. He opened his mouth to stop him, but Su Rong grabbed him tightly and whispered in his ear: "Xie Xiaowang is watching. You and I are like this in front of him."
Isn’t it bad to argue?”
Zhou Gu shut his mouth instantly.
From the corner of her eye, Su Rong saw Xie Lin's stunned look, which was a little funny. Looking at Zhou Gu, his face kept changing, which was also a little funny.
Her status is low, but she should let people know that she is not incapable of reaching the Duke Protector's Palace and giving good things to Zhou Gu.
The shopkeeper brought the picture album, and Su Rong carefully selected the pattern. Then the store owner happily called the embroiderer to give Zhou a measurement.
Zhou Gu numbly allowed himself to be manipulated, but he thought in his heart that his fiancée was probably very capable. In the entire Jiangning County, she seemed to be able to eat wherever she went, from a fisherman who made a living by fishing to someone as big as the third floor
Boss, now there is Jinxiu Pavilion, which is not inferior to Qianjinfang in the capital, and can get the materials leaked from the imperial offerings of Lingshan Weaving. This is not going sideways in the Su Mansion, it is simply going sideways in Jiangning County.
After the embroiderer finished taking the measurements, the shopkeeper wrote them down in a notebook and said with a smile to Su Rong: "Send the other ten pieces of cloth to the prefect's mansion?"
"Well, when the time comes, tell the concierge and just ask Zhou Xi and leave it to him." Su Rong explained.
The shopkeeper nodded, "Okay."
Then, he ordered the boy to carefully wrap the cloth Su Rong selected and send it to the prefect's mansion later.
"Let's go!" Su Rong greeted Xie Lin with a smile, "I'm sorry to keep Mr. Xie waiting for so long. Please come over for dinner tonight! The cook in our prefecture is good at cooking fish. You can try Jiang Ning
The fish in the water tastes very delicious.”
Xie Lin came back to his senses and glanced at Zhou Gu, "Would it be too troublesome for Prefect Su to come to the door rashly?"
"No, my father and mother are very hospitable." Su Rong smiled and shook her head. Anyway, if he knew that Xie Lin had come to Jiangning County, his father would also invite him to visit him. Now that she has met someone, if she doesn't invite her mother,
It's time to teach her about her lack of etiquette.
Xie Lin took a look at the sky, wondering if he should go tonight, and asked Zhou Gu with his eyes.
Zhou Gu didn't have any objections. He was still thinking about the blinding fabrics. Seeing Xie Lin looking at him, he didn't bother to pay attention.
Xie Lin coughed and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Qi. I will go visit Governor Su and his wife today."
Su Rong nodded, thought for a while, pulled Zhou Gu's sleeve, and asked him: "Brother Zhou, how about I go back home first? You and the young prince haven't seen each other for a long time. You can talk more, or you can take the young prince around."
Go shopping, I won’t accompany you.”
The key point is that she is tired of visiting everywhere in Jiangning and doesn't want to accompany them around anymore. Also, if Xie Lin and Zhou Guruo have something to say, it would be inconvenient for her to follow them.
Zhou Gu interrupted his thoughts and felt that it was necessary for him to separate from Su Rong and wake up without her interference, so he nodded, "That's fine!"
So Su Rong parted ways with Zhou Gu and Xie Lin.
She had just taken a few steps when Zhou Gu suddenly remembered his purpose all along and stopped her. In front of Xie Lin, he pretended to be considerate and said, "I'll ask the guards to take you back."
Su Rong stopped and turned around, unable to understand the meaning behind Zhou Gu's thoughtfulness. She waved her hand, "No, it's clear. I can just go back by myself."
Zhou Gu took two steps forward, looked at her, and said forcefully: "Let the guards take you back."
Su Rong: "?"
Zhou Gu coughed and explained, "Don't Yue Wan and A Hua like to eat snacks? You can buy them some snacks along the way and ask the guards to carry them for you to avoid your own hand pain."
Su Rong blinked, thinking that maybe she gave him clothes and he reciprocated the favor? Her hands hurt or something, but she had never hurt from taking a few bags of food. But she could accept his kindness and nodded, "Okay!
"
So, when Su Rong left again, he was followed by a guard from the Protectorate Palace.
After Su Rong left, Zhou Gu glanced at Xie Lin, suddenly hooked his shoulder, and said happily: "Brother, how are you? Is my fiancée particularly nice?"
Xie Lin threw his arm away, feeling very complicated. At first, he was shocked by the fabrics, and then he watched Su Rong carefully choose colors, fabrics, and styles of clothes for Zhou Gu, and Zhou Gu was not a person.
He was a patient person, but he cooperated with her like a puppet on strings. The two chose to choose, and he just stared at it for most of the hour.
If he hadn't been sure that the person in front of him was Zhou Gu, he would have almost suspected that Zhou Gu had been snatched away. When had he ever been so patient and obedient to a woman?
Especially when I originally planned to choose ten sets of ready-made clothes, but in the end, I chose ten more pieces of cloth. These are not ordinary cloths. They only have several pieces of high-quality Yun brocade. His mother and concubine have never made clothes like this.
Banhao crossed.
If he hadn't known Su Rong's identity, he would have almost thought that she was a noble girl from some family. No, that's not right. A noble girl from a rich family doesn't have such a large amount of money to spend. If she could make a piece of Yun brocade, she would probably have to spend all her money.
Her own personal money. But she didn't show any reluctance to part with it. She wanted it without batting an eye.
Xie Lin had never seen such a woman before. He suppressed the complexity in his heart and said to Zhou Gu: "I don't know if Miss Su Qi is particularly nice, but she is willing to spend money for you, and you are quite shameless.
Let the girl spend so much money on you all at once. Even if the person has a lot of private money, you can't just accept it with licking your face, right? Do you have to make up for it later? But is your private money enough to make up for it? I
Let me tell you, those things cost more than ten thousand and eight thousand taels, I'm afraid they cost tens of thousands of taels."
He compared his own private money to Zhou Gu's. He only had ten thousand taels of private money, and he thought Zhou Gu should have about the same amount. After all, they had not yet entered the court to do serious things and receive salaries, so they had no salary.
Those who are not married can get their share of the property and have so much private money in their hands because they are all favored by their families. The average young master in an ordinary mansion only has a few hundred or even a thousand taels of private money.
Quite a few.
Zhou Gu naturally wanted to supply Su Rong, how could he accept such a valuable thing from her, but naturally he could not admit it in front of Xie Lin, "What are you trying to make up for? My fiancée said she would give it to me, and she meant it to me. Do you believe it or not? If I gave it to
She made up the money, but she will definitely fall out with me."
Xie Lin glared at him, "If you don't want to make up for it? Then you just accept it like this? Don't you think it's embarrassing if someone spreads it out?"
People are always rushing to give this and that to their fiancée, but Zhou Gu is good, and his fiancée gives him gifts in turn. He doesn't return the favor, so why is he so shameless?
