Su Xiyue took a look at that set of clothes and exclaimed with some admiration: "How come I didn't know there was another piece of clothes like this in my closet? It's so beautiful! Where did Aunt Xu find it? Could it be with a wave of her hand?
Did you conjure it yourself?"
"How is that possible? Miss, the season is about to change. The clothes in your wardrobe used to be summer clothes, so of course they have been changed! This was just ordered by the slave to be sorted out yesterday, so of course you have never seen it before!
"
"Really? When was this done? Why didn't I know?"
"Go back to Miss, I started preparing this after I measured you earlier! Because these clothes are too time-consuming, I measured Miss two months in advance and made a total of six sets! Miss, do you want to see them all one by one?
See?" Aunt Qing explained.
Only then did Su Xiyue remember that something like that had indeed happened before! She shook her head and smiled! "No! If I watch it again and try again, it will be dark today! How could that happen?
?Grandma and the guests are still waiting over there!"
"Yes, Miss. What do you think?"
"Just this one! I think it looks good!"
While Xiao Lu was serving and dressing the young lady, she praised: "Young lady looks really good in this dress!"
"Sister Yu'er, have they done it too?"
"Miss, I did it. Previously, it was done according to the six sets of standards. But later, Mrs. Cao was demoted to aunt, and her status was naturally different! She changed from a legitimate lady to a concubine, so naturally she also received this treatment.
It’s different! So it was reduced to four sets.”
"Oh." Su Xiyue nodded. This wealthy family valued this concubine very seriously! She had heard of this before! But she didn't expect that even the usual expenses for food and clothing were not enough.
It's actually different!
"Then how are our diets different in normal times?" Su Xiyue has always liked light food, so she has never paid much attention to this. This time, when she heard them mention it, she remembered that it was time to treat this concubine
I can understand the difference between them. After all, I am in charge of the business now.
"Back to Miss, in terms of meals, your portion is three meat, three vegetables and one soup, the staple food is not included. The portions of Miss Concubine and Aunt Lian are the same, both are two meat, two vegetarian and one soup, the same, the staple food is not included!
"
Su Xiyue nodded, the difference is not too big, considering that their monthly money is also different! This Yu'er has no property in her hands! The Cao family's previous dowry was not much, so she gave it to her again.
Su Lian made some dowry, but she probably didn't have much left in her hands! With only a little monthly money, Su Yu probably wouldn't be able to save much money!
Before reaching the old lady's yard, Su Xiyue saw a light green shadow in the distance with a double bun on her head. Wasn't it Su Yu'er?
"Second sister, this dress is so beautiful!" Su Yu'er did not hide the look of envy in her eyes. Su Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it! This is what a little girl of this age should be like, if she is secretive
, it’s just too hypocritical!
"If my sister likes it, I can have it made for you later, but it can't be exactly the same as mine! At least the colors embroidered on it will be different! What do you think?"
"Really? Second sister, can I have it too?"
Su Xiyue asked instead, "Why not? You are the young lady of the Marquis. If you have any requests or inconveniences, just say it! Now my sister is the housekeeper. If I can help, I will naturally help! Besides, no
Just clothes. When did you, a young lady in charge of the palace, lose the right to make clothes?" After saying that, he took her little hand and walked to the main room together.
"Yu'er, although the people in that room are our relatives, they are just side branches and guests! Remember, you are the young lady of the Marquis! You are the master of the Marquis! There is no need to be cautious in front of them.
!Grandma and sister are here!”
Su Xiyue could see her nervousness and slight inferiority complex. Perhaps it was because she had changed from a concubine to a concubine. She felt that she still couldn't get over that hurdle! She always felt that she was three points lower than others!
This is not possible! If you show such an attitude in front of others, either they will say that the third lady of the Marquis is a shameless person! Or, they will say that she, the legitimate lady, treated her concubine too harshly! No matter where she is
One way or another, they are all detrimental to the reputation of the Marquis! This is naturally not what Su Xiyue wants to see!
After entering the house, the two sisters met Li.
The old lady smiled and called out, "Yue'er, Yu'er, this is your cousin. Your cousin and your grandfather are cousins. They used to stay in Beijing. Later, because your cousin was sent
After being released, they left the capital together. Now that your cousin has been transferred back, they have come back together."
The few words the old lady said seemed to be just to introduce these relatives, but inside and outside the words, they revealed a message that this cousin was not close to their family. The old lady only said a few polite words.
That’s it!
"Greetings to my cousin." The two sisters saluted, and the silver-haired old lady nodded lightly, raising her chin slightly, as if she was taking on the airs of an elder! But the older lady looked like a
The country bumpkin's cousin smiled and said: "These two girls look like beauties at first glance! Is this the third girl Yu'er?"
"Back to the hall, Auntie, this junior is Yu'er."
"Your eldest sister got married that day, and you have met her before, so she is not a stranger to her. But your cousin said she was unwell that day, so she didn't come. I called you here today just to let you meet her!
"
"Sister-in-law, actually we are here today to ask for something." The silver-haired old lady said.
Only then did Su Xiyue notice that the old lady who called her grandmother "Sister-in-law" actually looked older than her grandmother! Although she was wearing purple clothes, she looked much more gorgeous, but she still couldn't hide it.
Look at her head of white hair and the wrinkles on her face! Judging from her figure, she should be shorter than her grandmother, and she is also thinner than her grandmother! She wears a black forehead bandage on her head, and her hair is
Wearing several red gold hairpins!
Purple clothes, red gold hairpin, I have to say, this nondescript outfit is really a bit jaw-dropping!
"If your cousins have anything to say, just say it directly! If I can help, I, the cousin-in-law, can't ignore it. But if I can't help, don't be offended. After all, I'm old now, and I'm not as good as before! This mental effort
It's also a lot worse!" The old lady's attitude was no longer as eager as before.
