capital girl

Chapter 66
It is generous because the neckline on the chest is a bit wide, and there are many sweetheart necklines, which expose half of the breast inside.

Naturally, Li Yulou couldn't wear such clothes, but some ladies might be able to.

Li Yulou has learned a lot from looking at these styles of clothes. When she has time in the capital, she will take a walk first to see which styles and materials of clothes are more popular.

Li Yulou was about to leave the fabric shop, and it was time to meet Zhang Xiulan and Li Yukun when he heard a woman say, "This is not Suzhou embroidery at all..."

Li Yulou looked at this woman, neither her appearance nor her clothes were ordinary, but she looked like a maid.

"Why isn't it Suzhou embroidery? We, Caicailou, never sell fakes," said the female shopkeeper with a humble attitude, but she did not give in at all in her words.

"But this stitch is too rough," said the woman.

"Girl, you can't use your own feelings to judge that we are not Suzhou embroidery," the female shopkeeper knew that the woman didn't know much about fabrics, her smile was brighter and she was more confident, "We are all high-quality Suzhou embroidery materials here, look at this Stitches, this peony, come to life..."

The woman couldn't say anything more, as if she was about to be persuaded by the female shopkeeper.

"This is not Suzhou embroidery." Li Yulou said suddenly.

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Li Yulou.

Li Yulou has been on a boat, wearing relatively ordinary and comfortable clothes, which makes many people feel that Li Yulou is ignorant.

"Do you understand this?" A woman onlooker asked.

Although this woman's clothes are not gorgeous, and there are no gorgeous pearl hairpins on her hair, there is a bit of heroism between her eyebrows.

"Understand a little..." Li Yulou didn't flinch from the gazes of these people, instead he took a step forward, walked up to the woman just now, and stretched out his hand to pinch the piece of fabric she was holding in her arms.

"This is Xiuzhou's embroidery, not Suzhou's..." Li Yulou said, her tone was firm, and there was no doubt in the look between her brows, which actually convinced the people around her a little bit.

This is a big fabric shop, and there are many people who buy fabrics, and they muttered.

The female shopkeeper also re-examined Li Yulou, "Isn't the embroidery in Xiuzhou the same as Suzhou embroidery..."

"There is still a little difference..." Li Yulou held the piece of fabric and explained, "Xiuzhou embroidery has lighter stitches, while Suzhou embroidery has deeper... Also, the colors are different, and the veins of the threads are also different. different……"

Li Yulou said the difference between them.

"Where is Xiuzhou?" A person suddenly asked
This question stopped many people present.

Just now that heroic woman showed a map for everyone to see.

"Isn't Xiuzhou the same as Suzhou..." someone said after looking at the map.

The female shopkeeper said, "We call the embroidery from the south of the Yangtze River Suzhou embroidery..."

"Because Su embroidery is easy to sell and the price is still high, on our side, Su embroidery is only compared with Shu embroidery..."

Li Yulou was a little dazed, but on their side they were still very careful, perhaps because they were too far away.

"However, although this is not an embroidery produced in Suzhou Prefecture, it is still a high-quality product. Xiuzhou Prefecture's embroidery is also very good..." Li Yulou said with a smile, "I am from Xiuzhou, so I know you, sorry, sorry... ..."

After Li Yulou finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by the heroic woman with brows just now, "How do you know so much?"

"My family is in the fabric business. My father has won a Jinshi, and he wants to go to the capital to reunite with his father, so he is here."

"Your father is a Jinshi..." the woman said.

Li Yulou,...

"It's hard to take the Jinshi exam. It takes three years to admit more than 1000 people in the whole country. My father got into the second class." Li Yulou said bluntly.

"Okay, sorry, can you help me choose a batch of fabrics?" The woman suddenly asked.

Li Yulou looked at the woman whose name was not yet known. Her eyebrows were thick and slightly hanging, and the eyebrows were raised, making her look charming and charming.

The eye sockets are wide, the color of the eyes is like water, as quiet as a cold pool, the bridge of the nose is straight and straight, and the complexion is not so fair, like a healthy wheat color.

"Watch what I do, can you?" The woman raised her eyebrows and looked at Li Yulou provocatively, "I can give you ten taels of silver as a reward."

Ten taels of silver is not a small amount, Li Yulou was a little tempted, "My mother is still waiting for me, can you go back and talk to me before helping you."

"I'll send someone to help you tell..." the woman said directly.

Li Yulou nodded and agreed, "I'll give you a token!"

Li Yulou gave a personal item to a maid, and then followed the woman to choose the fabric.

Li Yulou didn't know what kind of fabric she was looking for, so he only said that she wanted to choose the fabric as a gift, and then told her what she wanted, and Li Yulou helped her choose the best one.

In fact, it didn't take long, almost two hours, and Li Yulou made ten taels of silver, which was a good deal.

"I don't know what your name is?" Li Yulou asked while holding the silver.

"My surname is Zhao, you can call me Sister Zhao..." The woman said goodbye to Li Yulou with a smile, "Maybe we will meet again in Kyoto."

Li Yulou took her as a polite remark after they met by chance.

Li Yulou took ten taels of silver and bought some snacks and snacks for Li Yukun and Chuntao.

Zhang Xiulan also didn't delve into Li Yulou's assertion, because Li Yulou has always been assertive and doesn't cause trouble.

On the second day, Li Yulou and the others continued to go to Kyoto by boat.

*
The emperor's Taiji Hall, the Guanwen Hall's seniors blushed and were full of excitement, "This year's students are all outstanding, especially Meng Shiyu, who is simply a talent that is rarely seen in a hundred years, and the stars of Wenqu come down to earth."

"It's really rare that my lord respects this person so much." The emperor said with a smile.

The Grand Master of Guanwendian used to be the emperor's teacher. This time he was selected as the chief examiner of Qiu Wei, the examiner of the palace examination. I didn't expect the old man to be so excited.

"The old man is happy for His Majesty. We are full of talents in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is the blessing of Your Majesty and the common people." The scholar of Guanwendian said with a blushing face.

The emperor also read the articles of several students. This Meng Shiyu's article is indeed outstanding, much higher than the others.

It's just that the king of Yan told him that when he was in Xiuzhou, he heard that this person had bad conduct.

The emperor didn't want to delve into whether his conduct was good or not, but what was certain was that King Yan didn't like this Meng Shiyu.

The emperor loves King Yan very much. This Meng Shiyu is already the champion, so it doesn't matter whether he wins the champion or not.

However, if the Grand Master of Guanwendian admires him so much, if he flatly refuses, I don't know what the old man will do.

The emperor frowned. This Meng Shiyu, who was only a candidate for Qiu Wei, had already given him a headache.

The emperor said, "The old man has worked hard. I think Meng Shiyu is too arrogant. Just order No. 4, so that he can suppress his spirit."

After listening to the emperor's words, the scholar of Guanwendian became unhappy immediately, and argued hard.

In the end, Meng Shiyu was selected as the champion.
