You fell off the horse just now

Wu Sicai saw that it was Jin Fangfei before, so she left Ren Yuanlin and came to the clothes shop without saying a word, but as soon as she stepped into the clothes shop, she immediately realized that other girls came to the tailor shop to make new clothes, she was in such a hurry It seemed very rude to follow.

She was about to go back to Huixiangju and wait, but a voice stopped her.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Wu, you are also interested in tailoring clothes today?"

The shopkeeper of Nishangfang is a charming young woman in her thirties, named Jin Xiuniang. Today she is wearing a begonia red embroidered skirt, wearing gold hairpins, and she walks with a look of beauty.

Wu Sicai had dealt with him several times, so he replied with a smile: "Isn't this the shopkeeper Jin? Why are you here in person today?"

There are many rumors about this golden embroidered lady. Some people say that she was abandoned by her husband's family because she was out of seven. Xin, take the initiative to reconcile with Li, and then run the Nishangfang.

Wu Sicai was skeptical about this rumor, Jin Xiuniang was a well-rounded person, she didn't seem like someone who would be divorced by her husband's family.

Jin Xiuniang gave a slight salute, "Today, there are a lot of daughters who have made appointments to make clothes, and they can't be sloppy, so I will come and see for myself."

Wu Sicai's eyes twitched slightly, "Could it be that the shopkeeper Jin is the young lady of the Qin family?"

Jin Xiuniang was startled, and then replied: "Mr. Wu is really well informed, and now the two young ladies of the Qin family are choosing styles. Could it be that... Mr. Wu knows the two young ladies?"

Wu Sicai was calm and composed, and jokingly said: "Who in this capital doesn't know that I was saved by the son of the Qin family? I saw the Qin family's carriage earlier, so I came here specially to take a look."

Wu Sicai confessed so frankly, but Jin Xiuniang dispelled her doubts.

"Hi. You have a great fortune and destiny, so what can happen?"

Wu Sicai said: "So this is not due to the Qin family's blessing, no matter what the two young ladies of the Qin family choose later, please trouble the shopkeeper Jin to record it in my name, and I will send someone to pay the bill later."

Jin Xiuniang said: "It's a good feeling. Since Mr. Wu is here today, why don't you also tailor yourself a new dress. We just bought a few high-quality cicada silk cloud satin here, and now it's cool to wear in this hot summer."

Wu Sicai changed his mind, if Ren Yuanlin was still explaining when he returned to Huixiangju, it would be troublesome, why not take the opportunity of tailoring clothes and wait for Jin Fangfei and the others.

"That's fine, there's shopkeeper Laojin."

Jin Xiuniang happily summoned a female worker, and said: "This is Mr. Wu, you take Mr. Wu to the inside to measure the size, and pick out the new clothes by the way."

The female worker answered yes.

Jin Xiuniang was worried, and said again: "Serve carefully, don't neglect Mr. Wu."

Wu Sicai then followed the female worker into an inner room.

Seeing that it was handled properly, Jin Xiuniang turned and walked to the other side of the pavilion.

She opened the bead curtain and walked in, "Does Miss Qin have a favorite style?"

Qin Minghui raised his head when he heard the sound, and smiled, "I chose a few, and the treasurer Jin came just in time, why don't you come and help me and my cousin have a look."

"The slave's staff is Miss Qin's staff." Jin Xiuniang slowly approached and glanced at Jin Fangfei calmly, "Hey, this lady is a bit unfamiliar, it seems that she has never seen it before."

Qin Minghui smiled and said: "This is my cousin who just entered Beijing, you have never seen Shopkeeper Jin before."

For the business of Nishangfang, Jin Xiuniang knew a little about every family in Beijing. She soon thought that a daughter of the Qin family had married to Mangzhou and hadn't returned to Beijing for many years.

Jin Xiuniang blessed her, and said: "So that's how it is. When we first met, the slave family greeted Miss Jin."

The two cousins ​​glanced at each other, and Jin Fangfei said, "You don't need to be too polite, shopkeeper Jin, today I have you, shopkeeper Laojin."

Jin Xiuniang said: "Nichangfang has one of the best dresses, and I will definitely cut out new clothes for you that satisfy you."

Qin Minghui said: "Treasurer Jin has a lot of news. I just mentioned my cousin, and Treasurer Jin guessed her last name."

Jin Xiuniang smiled and said: "No one knew about Miss Qin's marriage to General Jin back then. It was a good story about a heroic beauty. This time Miss Jin returns to Beijing, I think Mrs. Qin must be very happy."

As she spoke, Jin Xiuniang picked up the styles chosen by her cousins ​​and looked at them carefully, her expression focused.

Jin Fangfei glanced at Jin Xiuniang silently, Qin Minghui frowned at her secretly, and then said: "That's not true, grandma is so happy this time."

Suddenly Jin Xiuniang sighed: "What this elder likes to see most is a family reunion, harmony and beauty."

Jin Xiuniang's tone was a little lonely for no reason, and Jin Fangfei couldn't help being a little surprised, so it was hard for her to ask if she didn't continue talking.

After a while, a female worker came in and said that a new batch of satin materials had come for Jin Xiuniang to inspect and accept.

Jin Xiuniang showed a troubled expression, Qin Minghui expressed her understanding, "Treasurer Jin, go first, my cousin and I will have a look."

Jin Xiuniang said gratefully: "So I will go first. The two styles that Miss Qin and Miss Jin chose earlier are good. This color is simple and elegant, and it is the most suitable for Miss Qin. This color is gorgeous and lively. Miss Jin uses it Most suitable."

The two heard the words and looked at the style in Jin Xiuniang's hands, and it was indeed their favorite one.

"Treasurer Jin really has a unique vision."

Jinxiuniang gave a blessing, "Miss Qin thinks highly of my family. I'll come back later after I've dealt with my family. Please take a rest for a while or see if you like the newly arrived cloth in our store."

Qin Minghui nodded, "Don't worry, shopkeeper Jin, I am also an acquaintance of Nishangfang, I am very at ease."

Qin Minghui is well-educated and understanding, and Jin Xiuniang has always liked her very much.

"The slave's family sent someone to bring some snacks and tea."

Jin Xiuniang chose to leave, and not long after, a female worker brought snacks and tea, and Qin Minghui pulled Jin Fangfei to sit down.

The two chatted over tea and snacks.

"Cousin, this treasurer Jin doesn't seem to be married yet?" Jin Fangfei noticed that the treasurer Jin's bun was not a woman's bun.

Qin Minghui let out an "oh", and continued: "The shopkeeper Jin got married once in the early years, and somehow reconciled with that person, and later opened this clothes shop."

"Nowadays, the Nishangfang is very popular among the daughters of the aristocratic families in the capital because of its good craftsmanship. My mother was attracted by the embroidery workers of the Nishangfang, so many clothes in our house come from the Nishangfang throughout the year."

Jin Fangfei looked down at the roses in her sleeves, and the outline of each stitch was like a painting, but it was extremely beautiful.

At this time, Qin Minghui said in a low voice: "However, very few people have seen the embroiderer of this Nishangfang."

Jin Fangfei showed a puzzled expression.

Qin Minghui said: "This embroiderer is not that embroiderer. I heard from human beings that this clothes workshop was originally just a small clothing workshop, and there were only two people in total. Jin Xiuniang was eloquent and did some open business. As for this The embroidery of the clothes is all thanks to the embroiderer."

Jin Fangfei said quietly: "Cousin, aren't you a standard girl who doesn't leave the door and doesn't step out of the second door? Why do you know the most gossip?"

Qin Minghui blushed, "You also know that women and maids love to talk about other things, so let me listen."

"is it?"

Cousin is probably not just listening to it, but she knows how knowledgeable and sensible she is, and how boring she is behind the scenes, otherwise how could she be intoxicated by the storybook all day long.

Thinking of the script, Jin Fangfei naturally remembered the script she had read that day.

Jin Fangfei was so enlightened, she leaned into her cousin's ear and whispered, only to see Qin Minghui's eyes widen after hearing this.

"No way?!"

Qin Minghui pondered for a while and said, "It's not impossible."

The two were whispering again, and when Jin Xiuniang came in, she saw the two cousins ​​leaning together and biting their ears, her face froze, and she hesitated whether to leave immediately.

Shopkeeper Jin thought, the two cousins ​​seem to be very close.

Qin Minghui suddenly caught a glimpse of red, and immediately sat upright in fright, also, how could he not feel guilty when someone who was talking behind his back suddenly appeared in front of him.

Jin Fangfei also looked like a guilty conscience, wringing her hands at a loss. If she had known this, she would not have fallen in love with the conversation book with her cousin.

But the behavior of the two had another meaning in the eyes of shopkeeper Jin. She didn't know what to think of, and sighed softly in her heart, and then walked into the room as usual.

"I kept you two waiting for a long time."

Qin Minghui coughed feignedly, feeling embarrassed in her composure, this carefulness instantly made Jin Xiuniang feel distressed, she sighed to the two of them earnestly and earnestly: "In the clothes shop of my slave's house, you two can do whatever you want in the future, and don't need to care about others. "

Ok?

Ok?

The two looked at each other.

What is the situation now?

The two cousins ​​were in a daze, and they didn't know whether to nod or shake their heads. Seeing Jin Xiuniang's eyes, she always felt that she seemed to have misunderstood something, but her eyes were clearly kind and tolerant.

It is this kind of tolerance that makes Jin Fangfei at a loss.

Did she hear us talking about her?

No wonder Mrs. Niang can't talk about people's rights and wrongs behind their backs. This is not the first time he has been caught.

In the end, it was Qin Minghui who was quick to come up with wisdom, and said with a smile: "Why don't I come back to Nishangfang to be free and easy? Shopkeeper Jin, you are famous for handling things properly, who can worry about it."

Jin Xiuniang smiled and nodded, "That's good."

Jin Fangfei looked at her cousin, then at Jin Xiuniang, and always felt that the two of them were not talking right, and they were talking to themselves.

Forget it, sigh softly, it's good not to be exposed by others, and I will never gossip behind others in the future.

Who would have thought that once Jinxiuniang left, Qin Minghui couldn't help but said: "Fang Fei, I think what you said is not unreasonable, isn't the situation of shopkeeper Jin exactly the same as that written in the Japanese storybook?"

In the storybook, the protagonist is named Rong Niang, who obeyed her parents’ order to get married in her early years, and lived a happy life, but Niang actually loved another woman deeply from the beginning to the end, and that woman also worked hard for Rong Niang’s unmarried life Waiting for Rong Niang, even though Rong Niang has already married as a woman, at the end of the story, Rong Niang desperately wants to spend the rest of her life with her beloved one even if she is scolded by the world.

The two of them read the storybook that day and were both moved by the emotions described in it. It wasn't that the story between the two women was so touching, but that Rong Niang dared to break the false beauty on the surface. She didn't love her husband at all, and her husband It was only because of the order of the family that they married her. The relationship between the two was as ordinary as water, and it was nothing but a waste of life if it continued like this.

At that time, the two realized that there is not only love between men and women in this world, and whoever is happy can only see a person's heart.

Jin Fangfei brought up this matter just because she remembered the script, but at this moment, she was not afraid of being caught talking about right and wrong, and was about to remind her cousin, when Jin Xiuniang suddenly lifted the bead curtain and poked her head in.

The two separated again like frightened birds, darling, why did they come in again.

Jin Xiuniang smiled with an unclear meaning, "I forgot about something earlier. Earlier, Mr. Wu from Xibohou's mansion came and ordered the two of you who like it today to be paid by Mr. Wu. After thinking about it, maybe I should tell you two. It is."

After saying that, Jin Xiuniang blinked and left again.

The author has something to say: Although it is a very clichéd story, I think many things are actually one step away, and many people also lack the courage to take that step.
