The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 196 The Boss Praises He Has Ideas

When Qiao Liuxiu saw the wedding dress, stars would pop out of her eyes. She thought she liked it very much, so the little girl took the opportunity to say, "Sister, you can go to the back and try it. If something doesn't fit, we can change it."

Qiao Liuxiu nodded and accepted her invitation.Qiao Jiuxiu sighed, and continued to turn her eyes back to the lake blue satin cloth in front of her. This cloth is indeed the best cloth as the boss said, and it is perfect for swaddling clothes. It is impeccable, but for Qiao Jiuxiu, these things alone are not enough. There is still a major flaw in this cloth, which is too thin. If there is no miscalculation of the date, sister Duanyi's child should be in the Spring Festival next year. Before and after the birth, it was the coldest time of the year, and the capital city was not as warm as the south, so the swaddling clothes did not have the effect of resisting the cold at all, so don't freeze the baby by then.

"Boss, do you have any thicker silks and satins here? It would be best if you could add a little cotton." Qiao Jiuxiu looked around on the desk while talking, but she didn't find anything along the way. Let yourself be satisfied with the fabric.Frowning slightly, it seems that at that time, I can only add a layer of cotton in the middle of the satin. Although there is no technical content, it is too complicated and will take a lot of time.

"Why should it be thicker? Isn't this the right time?" The boss showed a suspicious expression, "Isn't this material very good? I see that all the dignitaries in the capital use it as swaddles when they have children. It has always had a good reputation."

"This fabric is very good, but if the baby is born in winter, the satin is too thin, and the newborn baby's body is not very good. If it is because of this, it will be bad, so I thought about it. So, is it possible to mix some cotton in the two layers of satin, so that it not only feels better, but also keeps warm, do you think this is good?" Qiao Jiuxiu shared her thoughts with the boss.The originally calm boss showed an incredulous expression on his face, and then nodded emphatically, "Miss, your method is really good. Indeed, many customers said that the satin is too thin to resist the cold, but now with you This way, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Qiao Jiuxiu smiled. She was also very happy that her ideas were approved by others, so she made an appointment with the boss to pick up the satin in three days. The boss was also very generous, saying that he would give her these two pieces of satin for free, provided that She can't tell other shops about this idea, the only way to make money is to do this business.Qiao Jiuxiu naturally agreed very straightforwardly. Anyway, she didn't sell cloth, so she gave up the good idea to the boss.

Suddenly feeling a pain in her throat, Qiao Jiuxiu coughed twice, thinking that everyone should pay attention to her image, so she took out an embroidered handkerchief.Unexpectedly, it was snatched away by the boss with sharp eyesight and quick hands, "God, is this Suhang embroidery? I have been a tailor for so many years, but I have never seen such beautiful Suhang embroidery." Qiao Jiuxiu's plum blossoms on this handkerchief are very beautiful. , not only lifelike, but even the proud charm of the plum blossom is embroidered, it is really a wonderful workmanship, he has lived half his life, but he has never seen such a good embroidery worker.

Qiao Jiuxiu smiled embarrassingly, and wanted to snatch the embroidered handkerchief to cover up her inner embarrassment, but it didn't work out, the boss was still looking at it carefully, feeling various emotions while watching, "Miss, I know what I said It's very abrupt, but this is indeed the best embroidery I've ever seen. To tell you the truth, my wife used to be an embroiderer in the palace, and I also sent fabrics to the palace. She is the top embroiderer in the palace. There is no such thing."

Qiao Jiuxiu felt even more embarrassed by his compliments, so the boss continued to say, "Miss, I want to buy your embroidered handkerchief, can you make a price? If you have any embroidery work in the future, you can find me. As much as I want."

Qiao Jiuxiu smiled awkwardly, but still took the embroidered handkerchief. If the wife found out that she was selling embroidered handkerchiefs outside, she would probably say that she had lost the face of the Qiao family, so she canceled it as soon as possible. This idea is good, "I'm sorry, I don't have this plan, and I don't think the plum blossom is actually embroidered well. It's just a combination of Shu embroidery and Suzhou-Hangzhou embroidery. It's not a big deal."

Qiao Jiuxiu's words are true. She really didn't put much thought into this embroidered handkerchief. It took about three to five days to finish it, and the main purpose at that time was not to make an embroidered handkerchief, but to find a way to make Shu embroidery and The Suzhou-Hangzhou embroidery is combined, so there are actually a few flaws in the embroidery that can be found on this embroidered handkerchief, but it is clear that the boss did not notice it just now.She was about to point out these mistakes and dissuade the boss from wanting to embroider handkerchiefs, when suddenly she heard the boss talking to himself.

"No, maybe I've seen better embroiderers than this one. You know Miss Ye Duanyi, Miss Ye. The wedding dress she wore on her wedding day was so beautiful. At that time, I joined in the fun and took a look. When I came back, I asked about it. Which embroiderer made this wedding dress, no matter how expensive the price is, they will be invited here, with such craftsmanship, in our street, she can definitely be alone." The boss's face was full of pride, As if the wedding dress was made by him, "But guess who made the wedding dress, it turned out to be the Ninth Miss of Qiao's Mansion, after all, she is a lady of every family, and even female celebrities are better than ordinary people. But luckily she didn't Eat this bowl of rice, or let us people live."

Qiao Jiuxiu's expression became more and more embarrassing, what can she say now, can she be Miss Nine of Qiao's Mansion?After the boss boasted so much, she dared not admit it.Also, the boss doesn't think what she just said is somewhat inappropriate.

"Jiumei, help me take a look, this wedding dress is alright." Qiao Liuxiu came out wearing the wedding dress. Although the style of the wedding dress is simple, there is a kind of nobility and generosity in the simplicity. .First, a blooming peony was embroidered on the red satin cloth, which was so delicate and charming, and then it was simply outlined with gold silk. The fronts are all decorated with light blue and red trims and pearl buckles, making them even more beautiful.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded slightly, the wedding dress was really well done, no wonder the boss was able to boast that it was definitely the best wedding dress here.The boss looked at Qiao Liuxiu in amazement, and Qiao Liuxiu smiled in satisfaction, thinking that her beauty had conquered the boss, she felt even more satisfied, but she was a little disappointed by the boss' next words, "This... this is Qiao Liuxiu Jialiu's clothes, just now she called you Jiumei, so, you, you are Qiaofu's Jiuxiao?"

The boss's expression became more and more excited, as if he saw a god, Qiao Jiuxiu twitched the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, he couldn't be so surprised, he felt like he regarded himself as a god.But in fact, the boss really regarded her as a fairy, "God, I saw Miss Jiu of the Qiao family today, Miss Jiu, please come and tell me how to embroider Ye Mingzhu powder on clothes. I have tried many times, but every time the results are not satisfactory."

Qiao Jiuxiu sighed helplessly, and could only tell the boss about her original production process, "The key lies in the choice of embroidery cloth and needle and thread, not all embroidery cloth can be used in this way, there must be some Trade-off, do you understand?"

The boss nodded repeatedly and wrote down all these things.Qiao Liuxiu glanced at them bitterly, she felt as if she had become a transparent person, and coughed dryly, "Jiumei, I just asked you if there is anything you need to change about this dress."

She came here today to find an opportunity to humiliate Qiao Jiuxiu, but the current trend is clearly Qiao Jiuxiu's indifference to herself.

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, and quickly walked to Qiao Liuxiu's side. Fortunately, she spoke, otherwise, if the boss continued to ask, she really didn't know how to answer, and for the first time, she felt that Qiao Liuxiu's voice was not so offensive. , at least at this moment, he saved himself.

"Sixth Sister, the color and style of this wedding dress are very good, and I like it very much." Qiao Jiuxiu said while observing carefully. She originally thought that Qiao Liuxiu's body was too thin, and she was afraid that she would look ugly when she put on the wedding dress. It is not enough, but looking at it now, it is just right. It seems that when making embroidered clothes, it should have worked hard here.So Qiao Liuxiu raised her arm slightly, she wanted to see how the sleeves were tucked in, looking around, there was naturally no major problem, but there were still two unsatisfactory things, but it was not because of the design, it should be because of the technology The problem, when the boss did it at the time, he probably didn't consider it.

"Boss, your wedding dress is really well done. I don't think there's anything to modify." Qiao Jiuxiu smiled lightly, thinking about these two deficiencies, I'd better tell the boss later, lest she Now that she said it in front of Sixth Sister, she should be angry again, and it would be bad to vent her anger on others.She naturally has this sense of propriety, so it's better to delay this matter for a while.

Hearing Qiao Jiuxiu's praise, the boss was naturally proud of himself, but in front of her, he still felt that he should be more modest, "No, no, compared to the wedding dresses made by Miss Jiu, our shop still has a lot of room for improvement. If you have time, please give me more advice.”

Qiao Jiuxiu twitched the corner of her mouth. The boss is really nice, but he is a little too enthusiastic.But Qiao Liuxiu sneered, "Yes, the wedding dress Jiumei made is indeed very beautiful, but I don't know what kind of wedding dress Jiumei will make for herself when she gets married. Is it pink or pink?" What about white?"

Both the boss and Qiao Jiuxiu frowned slightly, the smell of gunpowder in these words was really strong.
