Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 244 Money Obsession is a Double-Edged Sword

There is a huge water-red silk flower on the left chest of the jacket, which is made lifelike, revealing the tender yellow stamens used as buttons in the middle. , not at the waist.

The cuffs of the jersey are narrower than ordinary clothes, but they are not arrow sleeves. The part that hangs down is about two inches wide. Between the movements, a slender white wrist and the exquisite jade bracelet on the wrist can just be exposed.

There are three connection points on the cuffs, elbows, and shoulders on both sides, and four fixed points are also located in the middle of the back and the waist on the left and right sides. The yarn is cut and has a graceful arc that just floats on the side and back.

The lady's lower body is a white wide long skirt. White is one of the most common colors in women's long skirts. It can be described as a versatile color, but this color is too plain, so it used to be decorated with a lot of embroidery , but the one she wears is different, it just has a simple fringe decoration on the skirt.

However, this skirt of hers is actually two layers. Outside the long silk skirt with excellent drape, there is another layer of gauze, which is still the same quality and color as the gauze on her upper body.

At the joint of the waist, the interface of this layer of yarn was made into a wavy shape, which just wrapped around her slender waist, not only making the waist appear thinner, but also showing a gorgeous posture like a flower petal. The pink bead strings inlaid along the wavy pattern of the gauze at the waist, as well as the sachets, purses, skirt rings and other decorations that she hung on the belt, made this extremely ordinary white dress look gorgeous and elegant , especially good-looking.

The breeze was blowing gently, and the decorative veils on the skirt and upper body shrouded her body like smoke and mist, making her already charming and charming, a bit more ethereal and immortal, almost like a woman who had fallen into the mortal world. little fairy.

Yuan Bao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, she didn't know the lady, but she recognized the clothes on the lady at a glance, it was one of the "Dream Butterfly" series of clothes designed by her, It was grandly launched at the opening of Nishang and became a hot seller immediately.

Yuan Bao must admit that the lady in front of her is very suitable for this dress, regardless of her figure or temperament. A good model, especially since she wore it at the beginning of the flower viewing party, I don't know how many people's eyes will be attracted.

This free model is so rare and competent!
So, without waiting for Ni Yuze to open his mouth, Yuanbao warmly greeted him, first returned a half-respect, and then called affectionately, "I have seen my sister." The outer layer of the skirt is adjusted to the middle of the first layer skirt and the second layer skirt. In this way, not only can they better hold down the inner layer skirt, but also do not lose etiquette without affecting the appearance of the outer gauze skirt. Light and fluttering.

The young lady was flattered by Yuan Bao's thoughtful and intimate actions. She was only the daughter of the second master's official, and her identity was not even qualified for Ni Yuze to take a look at her. After begging for the second wife in every possible way, I got a chance to "encounter" Ni Yuze on the road this morning. I didn't expect to receive such a "courteous treatment", so how could I not use all kinds of means to pester him?
She leaned closer to Ni Yuze again, a pair of watery eyes wished to grow on Ni Yuze's face, her face was full of coquettishness, and even the air around her seemed to turn into an ambiguous pink for a moment.

It's not that Yuan Bao didn't notice the strangeness of this young lady, but her heart was full of joy of success, and she was eager to go to the place where the female customers gathered in the inner courtyard to see if there were any other new clothes wearing neon clothes, how the effect was, and where Improvements are needed, and feedback from customers, etc., can't wait!
Therefore, Yuan Bao smiled playfully at Ni Yuze, "My lord, I'll go back first." After saluting, he quickly walked away.

Ni Yuze looked at the figure who had left him and walked away. The good mood he cultivated in the morning disappeared in an instant. He didn't know why Yuan Bao was so nice to a strange woman, but he understood better. When his personal preferences collided, Yuan Bao chose the former without hesitation, which made him extremely sad!

As soon as Yuan Bao entered the inner courtyard, he became busy.

Because of the large number of guests who came this time, the Ni Mansion sorted out four large courtyards in the inner courtyard with three entrances and cross-courtyards to entertain female guests. Among them, two are for the Ni family's own use, and the other two are for the Yu Mansion.

Fortunately, Mrs. Ni drove out several concubines in the Ni mansion. Otherwise, there would really be no place to find such a big courtyard. Of course, the other rooms of the Ni family also received posts this time, even the members of the family came. Many people, the Ni family has always been polite when it comes to these superficial skills.

As a result, Yuan Bao became extraordinarily busy, walking from one yard to another like a hot wheel under her feet, chatting enthusiastically and cheerfully with all the female relatives, and the topic kept turning to clothes Yin, even the ladies will not let it go. In order to match this flower viewing feast, Nishang has launched more styles suitable for young unmarried women this time. Next, it is time to focus on launching styles suitable for married women.

Yuan Baoren is cute, eloquent, playful and clever, and she doesn't chat with these people about anything else, just chatting about women's clothes and jewelry, and often gives a lot of fresh, interesting and pertinent suggestions. Coupled with her current status and her young age where there is no "competitiveness" at all, how can she be unloved by everyone?
Because of these conveniences, Yuan Bao not only gained a lot of useful information, but also received a lot of meeting gifts. Yuan Bao found that most of these meeting gifts were considered income, but why?Shouldn't this be considered normal human interaction?
Yuan Bao's confusion was quickly resolved. It turned out that these people gave her gifts to ask her about Ni Yuze's gossip. To put it bluntly, it was a kind of bribery!
Yuan Bao didn't take it seriously. She felt that after staying with Ni Yuze for a long time, she not only knew Ni Yuze well, but also knew exactly where Ni Yuze's bottom line was. So, she picked up the ones she thought were safe and told them, In exchange for what she wants to inquire about.

I have to admit that outsiders' understanding of Ni Yuze is really blank, and Yuan Bao knows too much about Ni Yuze, and he can say a lot casually. In fact, Yuan Bao thinks that this is mainly because of Ni Yuze. People themselves have too much "personality", and if they don't mention likes and dislikes, they can talk about taboos for hours, and sum up hundreds of items.

Now it's good, it's no longer Yuan Bao chasing after others to ask questions, but instead it's others who take the initiative to talk to her, and enthusiastically cooperate with her on topics of interest.

Yuan Bao was elated. For the first time, he discovered that the social entertainment of the upper class was such a happy thing. Not only did he collect a lot of precious market information and first-hand information, but he also made a fortune.

Because of the large number of visitors, the status of Yuanbao is not low. Basically, the other party is embarrassed to take out things that are less than two or three hundred taels of silver. The expensive ones are worth thousands of taels, so the gifts she received this morning The value reached more than 300 taels of silver, and I sent the girl around me to send it back several times, and with the special ability, it was almost 2 taels.

The busy and happy time passed so quickly, it seemed that it was time to start the banquet in the blink of an eye.

For this super-large banquet, the Ni Mansion has tried every means and arranged it directly in the large back garden. Dozens of tables are roughly distributed in a circle. The middle part is for male guests, and the surrounding area is The female relatives, the two groups of people talking and laughing clearly heard each other, but they were separated by layers of dense shrubs and flowers. Not only could they not walk over directly, but they could not even see the appearance of the person opposite. In fact, it is not completely impossible. If The two of them jumped high at the same time, so they could see each other's faces, but no one would have the nerve to do so under the watchful eyes of everyone.

In the afternoon of spring, the sun shines warmly. It is the warmest time of the day, which is very suitable for outdoor activities. Some banquets are set up in the original pavilions, and some are set up in temporary flower sheds, all of which are shaded The canopy is surrounded by thick curtains on all sides, which is both beautiful and windproof. It does not delay seeing the fragrant flowers blooming in the courtyard, which is also very suitable for the scene.

The two opera troupes and two juggling troupes invited by the inner and outer courts sang all morning, and now they all rested. As a result, the impromptu poetry party prepared by the male guests could be heard more clearly, and some people sang loudly during the banquet, and then , the ladies on the female guest side also showed their talents one after another, how lively they were playing and singing. Later, people on both sides began to comment on each other through the flowers and trees, and the scene became more and more enthusiastic. I guess this is the highlight of the "blind date".

Yuan Bao didn't know anything, and no one encouraged her to play. After listening for a while, she found that Ni Yuze's voice was not on the other side of the male guest. Presumably this guy didn't bother to show off on such an occasion, so she lost interest and began to concentrate on talking to him. The ladies around her began to whisper together, continuing her grand plan of collecting.

The banquet lasted for a very long time, which lasted for two hours. The dishes were served one after another, and there were many kinds. In terms of quantity, the noodles were completely changed three times, and the temperature of the dishes was always kept. Yuan Bao saw again The luxury of the rich and powerful.

Some young girls couldn't sit still, and took the opportunity to change their clothes and clean their hands to go to the yard. Yuan Bao also followed them because he was chatting with a group of girls.

The sun gradually turned to the west, and Yuan Bao was thinking whether to go shopping for a while or go back to the banquet hall to find a group of people, when he saw a little maid from Ni Yuze's yard rushing over, "Miss Biao, why are you still here?" Here, go back and have a look, the young master is vomiting again!"

Yuan Bao was shocked, "Why did you vomit? Do you have a fever? How do the people around you take care of you?!"

Spring and Autumn is the season with high incidence of wind and cold, and today's banquets are all open-air, no matter how well-organized, it is inevitable to choke on the wind or eat half a mouthful of cold food when eating and drinking. It may not be a big deal to others, but to Ni Yuze's physical condition, it is still a little dangerous.

However, it's not right, Ni Yuze is picky and doesn't like to socialize, he probably won't eat anything, and will leave the table early, how could something go wrong? !
The little maid squeaked, "Say... say yes, drunk?!"

Yuan Bao was furious, "Drunk?! How can his body drink?! Still drunk!"
It was the first time for the little maid to see Miss Biao, who was always good-tempered, go into a rage, and she became more and more speechless, just urging Yuan Bao to go back quickly.

Yuan Bao also knew that there was nothing else he could ask from the little maid, so he could only walk back.

Because there were so many people coming, the soft sedan chair was not easy to call, so Yuan Bao didn't wait any longer, and walked back with the wind blowing under his feet, once again experiencing the vastness of the Ni mansion, trotting all the way back, panting and sweating profusely .

When Yuan Bao entered the inner room of the main room, Ni Yuze was still vomiting, and told Yuan Bao calmly that this was the third time Ni Yuze had vomited.

Ni Yuze's face was pale, and there was dense sweat on his forehead, but he hadn't seen him for a few hours, he looked haggard, and he didn't have the energy he had when he left this morning. He couldn't help feeling distressed and angry, and took Jing An aside He walked over with the medicine bowl in his hand, and said angrily, "I don't believe it. If you don't want to drink, who can force you to do it?! You're a big man, why don't you even have this little self-control? You This is sincerely putting us in trouble..."

"Pa" Ni Yuze, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, waved his hand, and hit Yuan Bao's hand holding the medicine bowl accurately, leaving a red mark on Yuan Bao's hand, and at the same time, most of the medicine bowl was knocked over, dripping dripping The ingot was sprinkled all over the body, and the medicine bowl fell on the step, and it was rolled twice, but it didn't break.

Ni Yuze looked up at Yuan Bao, his eyes were clear, without the slightest sign of drunkenness, "Have you cleaned your hands?" His voice was not loud, but extremely cold, with obvious disgust.

"You..." Yuan Bao was furious, "Why can't you speak up when you have something to say?! If you don't like it, you should have said it when I brought the medicine!" He turned and went back to his room.

Yuan Bao was taking off his clothes and jewelry when Jing Ning walked in, not approaching Yuan Bao, but stood not far away, and said expressionlessly, "Young Master, on the way to the main hall of the outer courtyard early this morning, I met five waves of people. , a total of ten ladies, after entering the main hall, within half an hour, they were splashed with tea twice, and every time they changed their clothes, they would bump into the lady who was changing in the inner room, and the two sets of clothes they brought with them were used up , the young master planned to go back to the courtyard, but before he entered the inner courtyard, he met two groups of people. He was stopped by the second master just after he entered the inner courtyard, and he took him to meet the guests. The young lady slipped her feet for no reason, and when she fell into the water, she still grabbed the young master, and the young master managed to avoid being knocked down by her, but the second master begged the young master to go down and save him."

Yuan Bao held his forehead with his hands, and she thought that Ni Yuze would be in trouble, but she didn't expect these people to be so sloppy, they could do everything they could, "Has the young master been saved?" Yuan Bao was very nervous, Ni Yuze was He knows how to swim, and it is said that his level is still very high. If he has a sailing dream in mind, he will definitely try to learn this skill.

Jing Ning glanced at Yuan Bao, as if studying what Yuan Bao was thinking, and then said slowly, "No. It was Jing An who went down and rescued that young lady." Almost everyone around Ni Yuze knew how to swim. It has something to do with their origins, but I didn't expect that there would be such an "alternative use" at a critical moment.

Thinking about it again, is Ni Yuze so calculating? !Today, not to mention those extraordinary personal servants in the outer courtyard, there are four Jings who follow closely all day long, and there are also guards who are not in the open. !Up to now, haven't heard any "rumors" come out, it can be seen that none of them succeeded, Yuan Bao couldn't help but feel very happy.

"Second master is very upset, and took young master back to the outer courtyard." After seeing Yuan Bao's smile, Jing Ning lowered her head and continued, "However, young master's new clothes were dirty again, so I had to find another yard in the outer courtyard." Changing, but as soon as they took off their clothes, they heard someone screaming outside the yard, saying that they had bumped into the young master changing clothes. In fact, they didn't even enter the gate of the courtyard. In the room, Jingxin was so angry that he rushed out and knocked the person unconscious and threw him in the flowers, and was reprimanded by the second master."

Yuan Bao couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing with a "puchi", "Then what happened after that?"

Seeing Yuan Bao's heartless look, Jing Ning's face became even more ugly, and she raised her voice a little later, "Later, the young master was splashed with ink once while watching other people's poems, and was sprinkled once after the banquet. Drinks, after sitting at the banquet for less than a quarter of an hour, I came back."

Yuan Bao clapped his hands together, "Then how many times did he change clothes today?!"

Jing Ning gritted her teeth angrily, why did Yuan Bao still care about these things at this time, not to mention the young master, even she got angry, "Miss Biao prepared all the new clothes for the young master, I finished wearing them today!"

Jing Ning was about to say something more, when Yuan Bao entered the clean room dancing in his middle clothes, and said cheerfully, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not all fruitless, at least this crime was not in vain!"

These six pieces of clothes are the main new men's clothes designed by Yuanbao. She is also worried about how to find other opportunities for Ni Yuze to wear them and show them in front of people. I didn't expect Ni Yuze to be so efficient. mighty!
I'm going to launch all these men's new styles tomorrow, but I don't know if I have enough stock, it's okay, the big deal is to rush the production, anyway, the decoration of men's clothes is less than that of women's clothes, and the production speed is faster!Yuan Bao summed up contentedly, and suddenly thought of another question, Ni Yuze only sat at the banquet for such a short time, so how did he get drunk?

No, he wasn't drunk at all, he vomited because his weak stomach and intestines couldn't stand the stimulation of alcohol at all, or it was wrong, even if it was a glass of wine, if he didn't want to drink it, he couldn't drink it into his mouth!
