"You mean..." Zhuang Qiao'e's eyes lit up.

The corner of Qi Surong's mouth also showed a slight smile.

☆、Chapter 6 Luo Yanyi

Qi Surong spread out the rice paper, took a pen and dipped in ink, and concentrated on drawing. She has been practicing calligraphy and painting since she was four years old. Although she is not called everyone, she has her own charm. In the past, I was arrogant and arrogant, and there was always a bit of coldness in the paintings and calligraphy. Today's state of mind is very different, natural and peaceful, neither arrogant nor impetuous, quite the essence of "shapeless, nothingness".

After picking up the brush and closing the momentum, Qi Surong drew more than ten pieces in one breath. With the theme of the longevity flower, he drew a whole set of clothing patterns, including upper and lower skirts, waistbands, dangling belts, shoes, headdresses, earrings, bracelets, etc. They were designed by Qi Surong specially for Zhuang Qiao'e. Zhuang Qiao'e has a cold face, and people who are not familiar with her will think that she is not easy to get along with. Therefore, Qi Surong specially chose the longevity flower, which is warm in color and beautiful in shape and means auspiciousness.

The longevity flower mainly grows in the warm and humid places in the southwest, and is relatively rare in the capital. It has clustered petals, beautiful shape, bright colors and luster, which just eases Zhuang Qiao'e's cold temperament, making her look gentle and elegant yet elegant.

The birthday banquet in the palace is quite particular, and the rich and gorgeous flowers such as peony and hibiscus, as well as the less auspicious flowers such as narcissus, oleander, and mandala, are not suitable. Clothing can not be too gorgeous, overwhelmed. The longevity flower is neither coquettish nor conventional, and the word "longevity" fits the characteristics of the birthday banquet just right.

I believe that Aunt Qiao's dress will definitely win a good prize at the birthday banquet.

Qi Surong rolled up the drawn pattern and asked the maid to send it to Zhuang Qiao'e.

However, after a long time, Zhuang Qiao'e received a message that she was very satisfied with the pattern designed by Qi Surong and paid the deposit.

Qi Surong did not delay, and immediately began to prepare.

She knew the major silk and satin jewelry shops in the capital, and she knew which one had good quality goods, which one had fair price, and which one had an honest boss. All this is due to the previous life...

Qi Surong lowered her eyes, forget it, it's useless to think too much, let's do the current thing first.

In order to make sure nothing goes wrong, she plans to go to the street to buy materials herself.

Qi Surong changed into a rather chic outfit, put on a veil, and went out with Ping'er.

Merchants are generally more practical. If they dress too shabby, they will be despised by them, thus affecting the smooth progress of the transaction.

Qi Surong went to the silk and satin village first, and rubbed the silk and satin fabrics one by one.

What she wants to choose is not the most expensive, but the most suitable match and the best quality.

After several comparisons, she chose two pieces of high-quality silk and satin. After negotiating the price, she said, "Boss, your price is quite fair. If you need it in the future, I will choose cloth from you."

"Thank you, Miss, for taking care of our business. I don't know what to call Miss?" the boss asked humbly.

"You can just call me 'Miss Rong'."

"Okay, Miss Rong, do you need to send someone to help you deliver the fabric to your house?"

"No, no need." Qi Surong's eyes suddenly fell on the corner of the room and asked, "Boss Chen, what is that?"

The boss looked back and said with a smile, "That's the leftover material left over from cutting the cloth, and it will be thrown away later."

Qi Surong thought for a while and said, "Boss Chen, can you sell me these leftovers? The price can be calculated by weight, and I will pay as much as I have in the future."

The boss said stunned: "What's the use of Miss Rong for these things?"

"There are a few younger sisters in my family who are learning embroidery. It's too wasteful to use high-quality silk and satin. If you have these leftovers, you don't have to worry about it."

"It turns out that Miss Rong is really good at home." The boss praised, and then asked the staff to bring the leftovers from the frame, "If you don't dislike it, just take it and give it away for free."

"Thank you so much for that. I'll ask someone to pick it up later, I have to trouble Boss Chen to keep it for me first."

"no problem."

After the transaction was completed, Qi Surong took Ping'er to another family.

It wasn't until after they had gone so far that the boss of Buzhuang suddenly remembered: How did the lady just know that his surname was Chen? Have you ever done business with her before?

Qi Surong's master and servant strolled around all morning, and only bought things such as cloth, embroidery thread and spices.

As for gold and silver jewelry, you need to find another craftsman to customize.

"Qi Surong."

As soon as I walked into an alley, I heard someone calling my name.

Qi Surong subconsciously stopped, and then she screamed badly. That voice was all too familiar to her, it was her former "girlfriend" Luo Yanyi. I thought that if I avoided entering the embroidery workshop, I would never meet her again. Who knows if my fate is changed or not, the person who should come will still come.

"What? I thought I wouldn't recognize you if you put on the veil?" Luo Yanyi, who was wearing a fancy dress, walked slowly to Qi Surong, looked at her up and down, covered her mouth and smiled, "Sister, we have more than one. The moon is gone, right? Why didn't my sister invite us to the house for tea?"

Before Qi Surong could speak, Luo Yanyi said again: "Oh, I almost forgot, it seems that Qi's residence has been sealed up by the emperor. Sister...is she homeless now?"

Qi Surong looked at her coldly. There are only eight words to evaluate her: her face is like a hibiscus, her heart is like a snake and scorpion.

In her last life, she was cold and arrogant, but she never had the intention of harming others. However, this person is acting erratically, and he will report it. The death of my mother was due to her.

Qi Surong lowered her eyes slightly to hide the hatred in her eyes.

"My sister is in trouble, how can a younger sister just sit back and ignore it? How? Can I ask my sister to help out?" Luo Yanyi walked to Ping'er, reached out and touched the cloth on her hand, and smiled, "Yo, The material is good. My sister can still afford this kind of high-quality goods, so it can be seen that life is not bad, my sister seems to be a little nosy. "

"Have you said enough?" Qi Surong said coldly, "I'm still rushing home, please get out of the way."

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" Luo Yanyi stopped her. "My sister wants to treat her to dinner, and she wants her to appreciate her face."
