"Madam, miss, the plaque for the new shop has arrived." The housekeeper reported.

Qi Mu and Qi Surong came to the living room together, and saw a red plaque inlaid with gold erected on the chair, with the letter: Yunrong Xiu Zhuang.

Qi Surong took a closer look and asked, "Mother, what do you think?"

"Well, it's pretty good." Mother Qi nodded and smiled.

So Qi Surong paid the balance, then covered the plaque with a red cloth and asked the housekeeper to send it to the new shop.

"Rong'er, when are you going to open?" Qi's mother asked.

"The day before the Queen's birthday banquet."

For the next half month, Qi Surong didn't go out again, and didn't think about Luo Yanyi again. But she didn't want to, but people were always thinking about it.

Luo Yanyi went home that day and made a fuss. She felt that she had lost face in front of Qi Surong, and she was scared away by her words. It was intolerable. She thought about it and decided to discuss it with other girlfriends. In any case, she just didn't want to make Qi Surong feel better. She wants to get back all the shame she once ridiculed.

"Actually, it's not difficult to rectify her." Liu Qian'er, the daughter of the Taiwei, said with a lazy expression, "The Qi family has no power, no power or money now. We can make her family uneasy as long as we use small means."

"Oh? What's your plan, let's hear it?" Luo Yanyi asked impatiently.

"You should all have heard that Qi Shuo, the general Qi Shuo, has been in a state of failure since he lost his post to the title. He neither finds anyone to help the Qi family rehabilitate, nor does he want to manage the family business, and has nothing to do all day. He has nothing to do except drink, listen to music and play chess. Besides, the biggest hobby is beauty, which is also famous in Beijing."

"so what?"

Liu Qian'er smiled, stood up, and said softly, "We can do this..."

Several people gathered together to calculate, and occasionally let out a small laugh.

On the other hand, the dress that Qi Surong sewed for Zhuang Qiao'e has been completed. She decided to go to the Song Mansion in person, and if there was anything inappropriate, she could make corrections nearby.

After sending someone to send a greeting card, Zhuang Qiao'e invited her to talk to the mansion in the afternoon.

When Zhuang Qiao'e saw the new clothes, she was overjoyed. Whether it was the style or the novelty, it far exceeded her expectations.

"Aunt Qiao, do you see anything else that needs to be modified?" Qi Surong said.

"No, very good." Zhuang Qiao'e said with satisfaction, "Thank you for your hard work."

"This is what it should be." Qi Surong smiled, "Whether Yunrong Xiuzhuang can open a market in the capital depends on Aunt Qiao."

Zhuang Qiao'e narrowed her eyebrows and said hesitantly, "There are countless dignitaries attending the birthday banquet this time. I'm just a fifth-rank lady, and no one may notice me at that time."

"Don't worry about this, those noble people pay the most attention to the fashion of clothing. As long as you appear, you will definitely attract their attention."

Zhuang Qiao'e pursed her lips and smiled, and said again: "Today, the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, there are only six days until the birthday banquet. How is your shop doing?"

"It's almost all ready, thanks to Aunt Qiao's help." Qi Surong poured a cup of tea for her and toasted, "Surong replaces the wine with tea, and toast to Aunt Qiao."

Zhuang Qiao'e didn't shirk, and had a cup of tea with her.

Qi Surong put down the teacup and was about to say something when her face changed slightly and she asked aloud, "Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month?"

"Are you busy? Of course today is the fifth day of May."

"The fifth day of May?" Qi Surong muttered to herself, something seemed to flash in her mind, and she felt very uneasy.

"What's wrong?" Zhuang Qiao'e asked.

Qi Surong stood up abruptly and said apologetically, "Aunt Qiao, I suddenly remembered that I have an urgent matter to do, so I will leave first."

As he said that, he rushed forward before he could pack up his things.

"Hey, what are you doing in such a hurry? The money for clothes..."

"Let's talk about it next time."

Qi Surong hurriedly left Song Mansion and ran straight in the direction of Jinghu. Ping'er, who was behind him, almost didn't catch up.

The reason why she was so anxious was because she remembered something that happened in her previous life.

It was on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month of this year that my father was slandered and molested the daughter of Zhang's family, and was brought to court by Zhang Yuanwai. Although this matter finally came to an end under the adjustment of some people, but his father's reputation plummeted and he once again became the laughing stock of the capital. What a face-loving person his father is, this matter has become a stain on his life.

Although his father was beautiful, he never molested women from a good family. Even his concubines were mostly women of the moon. What's more, the daughter of Zhang's family is a wealthy lady, and her background is not low, and her father will never be rude to others. After inquiring later, found out that father was swimming in the lake with several new friends. Someone told him that in the pavilion in front was sitting in the pavilion in front of me, who was quite famous recently, with outstanding appearance and talent. My father was very excited and wanted to meet him.

One person made a bet with him that as long as he could gain the favor of this beauty and take any accessory from her, he would invite him to drink a good wine for a month. Father complied and entered the pavilion without doubt. In the beginning, they only met friends through chess, but they also talked very happily. But this woman is not a prostitute, but a rich daughter. However, her father regarded her as a woman of the wind and moon, with a casual manner and an ambiguous tone. In the end, he even took the jewelry from her body. As you can imagine, he was naturally regarded as a prodigal son. The servants of Zhang's daughter swarmed up, wanting to teach his father a lesson, but he was beaten up by his highly skilled father, and finally went to court.

In court, the father sued according to the facts, but the person who made the bet with him has long since disappeared, and he has no proof, so he can only bear the blame.

Qi Surong almost forgot about it, because there were too many troubles in the Qi family in the previous life, and there was hardly a moment of peace. The reason why my father often goes out is to relieve his depression, but he doesn't want to fall into the trap of others.

Qi Surong wasn't quite sure that this incident would happen as she remembered, but just in case, she still had to confirm it herself to be at ease.

Running to the vicinity of Jinghu Lake, Qi Surong happened to see his father walking into the pavilion and talking with Zhang's daughter.
