Chapter 84 Allure Rose
On the first day of Shen Ji Huafu store's opening, it welcomed its first big customer.
Duan Zhenzhen got out of the car and asked the people behind her to wait outside the door. She only brought a close nanny into the store.
"Zijin, congratulations on the opening of your new store, I'll take care of your business!" Duan Zhenzhen was wearing an apricot yellow one-piece Western-style pleated skirt, with a small white velvet cape on it, and lace gloves on her hands, walking tall The high curly hair trembled slightly, and a clear face was youthful and energetic.
Looking at her bright smile, Ye Zijin couldn't help thinking of the carefree Miss Zhao Zhimei back then.In the past two years, she had no news of Zhimei, nor did she know where she was or how she was doing well. She had agreed to write a letter at the beginning, but for some reason, Zhimei seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no news.
In the past two years, this lady from the Duan family has brought a lot of business to Shen Ji. She is cheerful and lively, with a straightforward and hot temper. She has always regarded Ye Zijin as a good friend. Whenever she has a chance, she will come to the shop to play with Ye Zijin. The two gradually Also get acquainted.
Ye Zijin took Duan Zhenzhen to choose the fabrics, Duan Zhenzhen didn't look carefully, pointed to a few pieces of brightly colored fabrics, and said to the nanny beside her: "This one, this one, and that one, and that one with pink floral... buy, buy, I will I want it all."
Ye Zijin smiled and said, "That purple one looks old-fashioned, so you should not buy it."
Duan Zhenzhen said disapprovingly: "Don't worry about her, it's not my money anyway, I'll give the ugly ones to my father's newly married vixen."
The nanny went to Xiaoyue to cut the cloth as instructed, while Duan Zhenzhen took Ye Zijin to the backyard to talk.
Ye Zijin made a cup of English black tea for her and said, "How can you come out for a stroll today, doesn't your father always let you go out?"
Duan Zhenzhen stirred the black tea and said casually: "My father doesn't care about me now, that vixen gave birth to a daughter for him, and I have a younger sister, so I won't be the apple of my eye."
When Ye Zijin heard about Duan Lipeng's marriage to the eighth concubine, she suddenly felt a sense of sympathy. Not long after her mother passed away, her Ama also married a new lover, which made her feel very sad.But Duan Zhenzhen had an indifferent attitude, Ye Zijin thought that Duan Lipeng had already married the eighth wife, and Duan Zhenzhen should have become numb by now.
There was no sadness on Duan Zhenzhen's face, but a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and she said with a smile: "It's nothing to make a fuss about, he married his, and I will live mine. But the man I want to marry in the future must not marry Xiao, otherwise I will interrupt his marriage." I don't want my child to suffer these grievances if he has his leg rested."
Seeing her serious appearance, Ye Zijin thought it was a little funny, and couldn't help laughing and said: "You don't have to be ashamed, every girl talks about marrying, marrying, and children talk about it, people who don't know think you want to marry someone Yes. Alas, it seems that your future husband is going to suffer, and he will sleep at every turn, hehe..."
Duan Zhenzhen was drinking black tea, and accidentally saw the narcissus on the flower stand. She became interested for a while, walked over and circled around, and said with a smile: "You are really very elegant. I can't do it if you raise so many flowers and plants. What are you raising?" I don’t dare to raise anything, it’s so boring every day, there’s not even a single person to quarrel with.”
Ye Zijin joked: "If you want to find someone to quarrel with, I think one is very suitable. Didn't you used to scold him every time you met him?"
Duan Zhenzhen asked blankly: "Who? Have I ever hated someone so much?"
Ye Zijin nodded and said, "Yes, the one you scolded to death as a fat man."
"Tell him, he's a fat pig..." Duan Zhenzhen gritted her teeth.
Ye Zijin said curiously: "I don't understand, how did Mr. Qian offend you? It's been so long since the kidnapping, and you still have it in your heart?"
"Of course! You don't know..." Duan Zhenzhen suddenly closed her mouth, her face turning red.
Ye Zijin felt strange, walked up to her, folded his arms and looked at her, "I don't know what?"
Duan Zhenzhen coughed a few times to clear her throat, leaned close to Ye Zijin's ear and said, "I tell you, you are not allowed to tell others."
Ye Zijin nodded, only to hear Duan Zhenzhen whisper: "That day he sneaked into my house to kidnap me, I happened to be taking a shower in the bathroom, and he rushed in... I will always remember this account, and I will never let it go That fat man!"
Ye Zijin always thought that it was Duan Zhenzhen who hated Qian Jiang and they tied her up that day, but she didn't expect that there was such a relationship between her and Qian Jiang. According to the ancient customs, Qian Jiang should marry Duan Zhenzhen immediately. Seeing Duan Zhenzhen being beaten every day, Ye Zijin couldn't help laughing, seeing Duan Zhenzhen staring at her, she immediately put away her smile and said seriously: "Well, we can't let him go, it's too hateful."
Duan Zhenzhen sat back on the chair, took a sip of black tea, and said, "It seems that I haven't seen that fat man for a long time. I don't know if he has improved his quarrel skills. By the way, Zijin, the French Consulate will hold a meeting tomorrow night." What is the medal award party, my father took a silver medal and asked me to watch him put it on, you can go with me when the time comes, I don’t want to go with his group of aunts and wives.”
Ye Zijin shook his head, and said: "I don't know how to dance, and it would be boring to go to that kind of dinner party, so I might as well make more clothes."
Duan Zhenzhen put down the teacup and said: "Who told you to go to the dance, it was for you to accompany me. Besides, those who came late were rich businessmen and dignitaries from the French Concession. Let them know you and then they will know about Shen Ji Huafu Store."
"That's true, then you also want to wear the clothes I made, just as Shen Ji Huafu is going to launch a new suit." Ye Zijin laughed.
Duan Zhenzhen cast an annoyed glance at her, and said, "There is no profiteer, no business." She suddenly remembered something, and said, "I heard that they invited Miss Qiangwei, a popular singer from Paramount, to join the fun. I quite like to hear her Those who sing foreign songs are more atmospheric than Wenying's Jiangnan tune, and now many rich ladies imitate her wearing a wide-brimmed hat with a veil at one side."
Ye Zijin didn't know when there was another Miss Qiangwei from Paramount, lamented the rapid replacement of the singing and dancing hall, and couldn't help thinking of the death case of Wang Luqiu, which has been a mystery until now, and felt a little heavy in her heart.
In front of the French Consulate Building, the wide driveway was full of cars of celebrities and dignitaries from all walks of life.The banquet hall was decorated gorgeously yet solemnly, and the giant fringed crystal lamp hanging on the dome shone brightly. Some people said that this lamp was specially shipped from Paris, France. The hall was illuminated resplendently and resplendently, as bright as day.The shadows of people coming and going are staggered, and the shadows of beauties in fragrant clothes are curling up, and there are many foreign girls with blond hair and blue eyes among them.Waiters with bow ties shuttled among the luxurious crowd with silver trays, and respectfully served goblets filled with red wine or champagne to the guests.
Ye Zijin entered the venue with Duan Zhenzhen, and the two became a beautiful scene in the banquet hall.Duan Zhenzhen was forced by Ye Zijin to put on a dark green taffeta western evening dress today. The slightly puffed skirt and tight waist made her figure even more delicate, and she wore a string of pink gemstones around her neck The necklace and ear pendants are a set, and the drop-shaped ear pendants sway as she walks, making her youthful and lively.The half-exposed fragrant shoulders are the design of Ye Zijin, which is not ostentatious but also adds a touch of charm.
Ye Zijin's attire was far less luxurious than Duan Zhenzhen's. She picked out a well-fitting silver-white satin cheongsam with dark patterns, a string of pearl necklaces around her neck, and a light green jadeite bracelet on her bright wrist. From a distance, it looks like a beauty like snow piled up in Yushu.
The two of them walked side by side, attracting the attention of many people.They didn't care about the eyes around them, they just walked generously with smiles on their faces.People who knew Duan Zhenzhen took the opportunity to come over to say hello, and those who didn't know Duan Zhenzhen also tried to get close to come over to say hello. Of course, most of the men's final purpose was to say a few words to Ye Zijin who was beside Duan Zhenzhen.
Ye Zijin is not timid in front of strangers, she generously answers all kinds of irrelevant conversations, with a polite smile on her face.
At this time, a couple of men and women came in from the door, and many people came forward to greet him enthusiastically, Ye Zijin faintly heard the familiar address—Boss Meng.
She and Duan Zhenzhen had retreated to a corner of the hall, watching He Manling walk into the hall holding Meng Haoxiang's arm not far away.Although He Manling's purple embroidered peony cheongsam is very gorgeous and glamorous, but standing next to Meng Haoxiang, it seems that everyone's eyes are more on the tall and handsome man beside her.
Meng Haoxiang possesses a tough yet graceful temperament, wearing a simple and elegant black evening dress on him, he is a bit more masculine than those noble sons, he behaves very decently and politely on such occasions, and occasionally says Just a few jokes, he is free and easy without losing his demeanor, he doesn't look like a gangster boss, but rather a young man from a family.
Seeing them walking this way, Ye Zijin quickly dragged Duan Zhenzhen to another place.For some reason, she felt a little afraid of meeting him.
Duan Zhenzhen also saw He Manling, snorted disdainfully, and said, "That woman He Manling always chases after Meng Haoxiang like a tail, I think Meng Haoxiang doesn't like her, otherwise why would she just follow her as soon as she came in?" The officers chatted and left her alone."
Ye Zijin just pretended she didn't hear it, and when she saw He Manling entering the arena holding Meng Haoxiang's arm, she felt a little sour for no reason.Right now, he didn't want to see the two of them anymore, so he and Duan Zhenzhen walked to the other side.Later, Duan Zhenzhen took her to meet several wealthy ladies. With Duan Zhenzhen's help, she successfully attracted several big customers. They saw that Duan Zhenzhen and Ye Zijin's clothes were really beautiful, and they all promised to go to Shenji Huafu Store to make them look so beautiful of.
At this time, the stage curtain in front of the hall slowly opened, the lights in the hall dimmed, and a melodious violin sounded.There was a faint halo on the stage, but no one was still on stage.A ray of clean and clear singing slowly rose, accompanied by the melodious sound of the violin, tactfully echoing over the hall, like the sound of nature, the sound is touching.
"Should auld acquaintance befor got, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance befor got and days of auld lang syne? And days of auld lang syne, my dear, and days of auld lang syne, we'll take a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne.... Sin auld lang syne. Sin auld lang syne, my dear, Sin auld lang syne..."
A piece of "Auld Lang Syne" was sung sincerely and purely, and Ye Zijin was a little moved when she heard it. The voice reminded her of a person, an old friend.
Gradually, the lights in the hall were lit up sporadically, and the crystal lamp cast a soft beam of light, wandering on the stage like the moonlight streaming down.The band and the violin played this beautiful song together. A figure slowly walked out from behind the curtain on one side of the stage. The pink and purple long dress with bare shoulders stretching the floor was very elegant and hazy, and a flower of silk and The red head flower made of sequins, while singing softly, the singer looks sad.
Duan Zhenzhen excitedly said in the audience: "She is the rose who is known as the alluring voice of the city! She sings really well!" As she spoke, she glanced at Ye Zijin, only to find that she was staring blankly at the singer on the stage, and then she looked surprised.
Ye Zijin could see the face of the woman on the stage clearly. Although she was painted with red lips and heavy makeup, she looked charming and gorgeous, but she recognized those clear eyes, it was Zhao Zhimei!How could Zhimei be Miss Qiangwei?How did she become the singer of Paramount!
