Chapter 1848 Complete Your Happiness (5)
"Oh...Xiao Douding guessed correctly, there really is a gift from me..." Mrs. Su took the box with a smile.
Then he walked over and sat next to Huo Mian, and opened it slowly in front of everyone.
Inside is a light blue cheongsam...stitched with gold thread, luxurious and grand.
The most important thing is that the fabric is very light and delicate... It is a top-grade work at first glance.
"Actually, Qin Chu gave me this material for several days...I later took it and found someone to sew according to Aunt Su's figure. There are two batches of material, and I also made one for my mother. My mother always likes simplicity and elegance. So I gave her dark green, Aunt Er Su has always had an extraordinary temperament, as noble and elegant as an orchid...so I think this place is especially suitable for you."
"You...you know how to coax me...but this cheongsam is too beautiful...the most important thing is that the fabric is not ordinary..."
Mrs. Su touched the fabric of the cheongsam lightly with her hands. She has worn countless cheongsams over the years.
When it comes to traditional festivals, she will wear the orthodox Chinese cheongsam, and she has no temperament.
So I have a lot of research on fabrics. After looking at it, I also found that I don’t have a dress made of this material, which is very surprising.
Qin Chu said quietly from the side, "Auntie, this fabric... is the colorful brocade from southern Anhui. I wonder if you have heard of it?"
"Colorful Liuyun Brocade? God... Isn't that the top grade made by the Jiang family workshop of the aristocrats of the Ming Dynasty? It was rumored that it was always a tribute... Later in the period of the Republic of China, the workshop declined... Liuyun brocade also gradually disappeared from the market... I've heard people mention it...but I haven't actually seen it. My mother-in-law said that the mistress of her mother's family used to have a skirt of colorful brocade... Later, in troubled times, the house was ransacked, and the skirt disappeared. "It's not easy to find now."
"Qin Chu has done a lot of research on this... After a lot of twists and turns, he bought two batches of fabrics from an old friend... Made two skirts, one for you and one for my mother. Hurry up, Aunt Su, try wearing them, and give them a try. Let's take a look, it must be pretty." Huo Mian chuckled.
"Just two...then you don't have them?" Madam Su looked at Huo Mian.
"I'm not in a hurry... I'll just wait for my mother to give me hers in the future... and keep yours well... I'll give it to Su Yu's wife..." Huo Mian said half-jokingly.
Pudding held Mrs. Su's hand, "Grandma Su, I'll accompany you upstairs to change your clothes, and I can help you pull the hem of your skirt in case you slip."
"Haha, good boy, grandma didn't love you for nothing." Mrs. Su couldn't be happier, and kept touching Pudding's face.
Douding was obviously dissatisfied, and put down the walnut in his hand, "Qin Chaochao, you are going to be ashamed...that is my patent."
"What is your patent, flattering?" Pudding asked back.
Douding: ...
The sisters quarreled and made everyone laugh...
Afterwards, Mrs. Su took the twins upstairs to change into cheongsams, while Qin Chu and Huo Mian accompanied the two elders downstairs.
Su's father likes the inkstone of Lanting Yayun very much, and he can't put it down.
Qin Chu said, "Uncle, this inkstone is just too big, because the raw material is a complete stone, so the master who made it was not willing to grind it, and the result is indeed not so attractive... You can collect it as a handicraft. It’s really too big to grind with it...it’s not convenient to hold it.”
"Eh? Who said... It's convenient for me to look at, and I like to use the big one, it's comfortable, haha." Papa Su laughed resonantly.
"Xiao Mian...the twins are not young anymore, and they can't always ask for tutoring. Is it time for them to go to school? Is there a suitable kindergarten?" The old man of the Su family glanced at Huo Mian and suddenly thought of this topic.
