Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 25
Chapter 025 Wisdom Fighting Clothes Workshop
An elegant carriage left the Cloud Mansion. Half an hour later, it stopped at the largest garment shop in the capital.
The carriage curtain opened and a young girl wearing a flowing green gold dress walked down from the carriage. The young girl wore a pair of embroidered shoes made of milk smoke and satin and got out of the carriage first.
She moved her lotus steps gently, swung her slender waist, and gracefully stood at the edge of the carriage. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her eyebrows were picturesque, and a pair of watery eyes landed on everyone. Everyone who passed by felt their eyes shine, and half of their bodies were numb.
Everyone looked sideways. Which family was this woman? She was actually born so well. She was actually not inferior to the fairies in the sky in the slightest.
Lan Shuya was very satisfied with the commotion she had caused and secretly rejoiced. Her beauty was rare in the world. “Cousin, come down quickly.”
This voice was as gentle as an oriole’s cry, and it carried a hint of weakness. Hearing it, everyone felt as if it was scratching their hearts like a cat’s claws.
Yun Xiao slowly walked out of the carriage and saw everyone’s gaze fall on Lan Shuya obsessively. The corner of her mouth carried a trace of disdain, but it quickly disappeared.
Lan Shuya was accustomed to showing off. Wasn’t it a small deal for her to cause such a sensation?
He turned around and carried Brother Han who had been following him down. Seeing Lan Shuya’s expression again, Brother Han felt annoyed in her heart. “Fourth sister, those people are staring at people like this. How shameless.”
Yun Xiao pinched Brother Han’s soft and tender cheeks and laughed, “You’re the only one who talks.”
“Cousin, let’s hurry inside.” The beautiful woman’s watery eyes were filled with a trace of shyness, and her voice was lowered by half a point, “Cousin, let’s hurry inside.”
I’m afraid I can’t wait to get money to buy her clothes, right?
The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth smiled softly, but her expression became gentler. “Alright, let’s go in. It’s embarrassing to be watched by so many people.”
Those people were clearly looking at me! Lan Shuya was very disdainful of Yun Xiao’s words in her heart, but Yun Xiao was still useful to her, so she could not offend him. “Yes, it was better to go in earlier.”
Yun Xiao saw all of Lan Shuya’s expression in her eyes. The smile at the corner of her mouth became clearer and brighter, and her eyes carried a faint coldness. Lan Shuya looked at her, and for some reason, she faintly felt that this cousin was different from before.
Looking again, Yun Xiao had already returned to her normal state. Lan Shuya frowned, pretending that she was mistaken.
After entering the Thousand-Colored Workshop, there were a dazzling array of precious garments placed outside. They were all fashionable styles nowadays. There were all kinds of colors, and they were very eye-catching.
Lan Shuya’s eyes immediately lit up. Her heart had already flown to these dresses. When Yun Xiao saw them, she chuckled and said, “Cousin, can you help me see which clothes look good?”
Lan Shuya immediately answered. Her eyes looked at the third dress in the first row on the left. She walked towards the fourth dress and smiled. “Cousin, do you think this dress is pretty good?”
Yun Xiao did not even look at the one on Lan Shuya’s finger. Instead, she looked at the one blocked by her. This dress was made of good purple brocade. Her eyes were bright and dyed evenly. This silk was made for the Empress Dowager. Lan Shuya’s gaze was very good. She chuckled and said, “I think this dress is good. Lady Su, wrap it up and send it to Yun Mansion.”
Although Yun Xiao rarely left the manor, she recognized Lady Su, who often went to the manor to make clothes for everyone.
Lady Su immediately answered and wrapped up her clothes herself. Lan Shuya’s body stiffened for a moment, and she looked at Yun Xiao with surprise in her eyes.
Although Yun Xiao was the daughter of the biggest emperor merchant in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, she rarely left the manor. Her clothes were naturally tailored by the people in the Yun Clan’s shops. She did not have much research on clothes. Occasionally, she would buy whatever clothes she wanted when she went out of the manor. However, what was wrong?
She had taken a fancy to that dress early in the morning, but she didn’t have the money to buy it, so she specially lured Yun Xiao here. She didn’t expect that it would all fall into Yun Xiao’s hands.
Lan Shuya bit her lips and endured the anger in her heart. She kept the other clothes that she liked and pointed at the other bright and beautiful styles for Yun Xiao. She did not expect that Yun Xiao would ignore all the clothes she was referring to and instead bought all the clothes that she liked.
Lan Shuya’s hands tightened under her wide sleeves, and a trace of malice flashed in her eyes. She could not figure out what was wrong with Yun Xiao today?
Lan Shu Ya Lian walked towards Yun Xiao who was still looking at her clothes. She couldn’t help but say, “Cousin’s eyes are really good. When these clothes were hanging there, she didn’t think they were very beautiful. But now, they look extremely dazzling. Cousin bought quite a few clothes today.” Shouldn’t she also choose some for me?
Yun Xiao looked at Lan Shuya’s tolerant appearance and felt a bit more pleased in her heart. She deliberately ignored Lan Shuya’s intentions and said with a smile, “Yes, I bought quite a few. However, those clothes are suitable for normal wear. Naturally, I can’t wear them at county princess Hui Ning’s banquet.”
Brother Han’s soft voice also rang in his ears. “Fourth sister’s eyes are naturally the best. Naturally, the clothes worn by these vulgar fans cannot be worn by Fourth sister at the banquet.” Naturally, the rouge powder also included Lan Shuya, but she was just a concubine daughter, which Brother Han didn’t like at all.
Hearing these words, Lan Shuya was so angry that she almost got angry. Those dresses were all her favorite. Wearing such clothes at the banquet would definitely shine brightly, but in the mouths of Yun Xiao and Brother Han, they were worn normally.
‘”Yes, what cousin said makes sense. This is the first time cousin attends a banquet like this. Naturally, she can’t just wear these mundane things.”
Yun Xiao pretended to think for a moment. Her eyes were fixed on Lan Shuya, while Brother Han had already taken the lead. “Cousin, what you said is reasonable. Then please ask Lady Su to personally tailor new clothes for Fourth Sister.” After he finished speaking, he called Lady Su over.
This Thousand-Colored Square was a shop under the Yun Clan’s name, and Yun Xiao was also the master of the Yun Clan. Naturally, Lady Su did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly agreed to it. Lady Su knew all the sizes of Yun Xiao’s clothes, so she did not need to measure them.
Yun Xiao’s action was merely to personally decide on the patterns of the cloth and accessories.
Lan Shuya’s eyes lit up. Lady Su’s tailoring skills were peerless in the capital. However, she boasted that she was old and did not make clothes easily. The dress she made was priceless and would be robbed in an instant.
If he was able to get Lady Su to make clothes, coupled with his beautiful face, he would definitely make a big splash at county princess Huining’s banquet.
Lan Shuya immediately followed Yun Xiao into the back hall. Lady Su had already brought out all the high-grade materials, designs, and other possessions with a chuckle.
Those materials were Yunzhou’s Golden Bird Silk, Chengzhou’s Rouge Fragrance, Ningzhou’s Peony Embroidery, as well as Haiyun Hong and Zi Luo Jin. Lan Shuya’s eyes lit up. Take out these materials, and none of them were ordinary.
If this kind of material could be worn … Lan Shuya’s eyes looked at Yun Xiao, “Cousin, these materials are really dazzling.”
Yun Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, bringing out a wisp of sadness, “Yeah, I’m having a hard time choosing. Cousin, help me choose.”
Lan Shuya was not polite either. She walked forward with lotus steps. In a flash, her gaze landed on the pale green rouge fragrance material. Afraid of attracting suspicion, she immediately turned her gaze away and pointed at a piece of Hai Yunhong material. “Cousin, I think this is not bad.”
Yun Xiao saw all of Lan Shuya’s reactions. She secretly sneered in her heart. She also walked forward and looked at all the materials. She took up the Hai Yunhong material and shook her head. “This one is too bright. I don’t like it.”
His obsidian-like eyes suddenly lit up and he pointed at the faint green rouge scented material and said, “I think this one is very good.” He held it in his hand and touched it for a while. He smiled and said, “Let’s choose this one.”
Lan Shuya was stunned. Her lowered eyes looked at Yun Xiao in surprise. There was a trace of resentment in the depths of her eyes. Her heart was dry and stuffy. Her breath was blocked in her heart. Her hands hidden in her sleeves were tightly clenched together. Her complexion turned green and pale. It took a long time for her to recover, but Yun Xiao had already walked to the side to look at the patterns.
When Yun Xiao saw this, the corner of her eyes curled into a cold smile, and an indescribable sense of comfort surged into her heart.
Lan Shuya, don’t you like acting? Then let’s see who makes a better show!
The sneer at the corner of his mouth immediately softened. He pulled Lan Shuya and Brother Han to watch the show together and chose the one that Lan Shuya fancied, just like before. Only then did he walk towards the Thousand Colors Square with satisfaction.
Lan Shuya didn’t expect things to turn out like this. She stared at the beautiful figure walking in front of her. She couldn’t believe that she had left just like that.
She bit her lips, leaving behind two small teeth marks on her cherry blossom-like lips. She immediately chased after him. She hadn’t bought the clothes she wanted to attend the banquet yet. “Cousin, have you forgotten something?”
Yun Xiao stopped and leisurely appreciated Lan Shuya’s expression. Her heart was filled with joy, and her eyes seemed to think, “There should be no more. The clothes are all set. Lady Su will send someone to Yun Mansion at that time.”
Lan Shuya’s watery eyes carried traces of grievance. Half of her body felt soft when she landed on someone. She tightened her hands and said, “Cousin, I haven’t bought the clothes for the banquet yet.”
Hearing this, Yun Xiao’s expression froze. Her eyes stiffened, and the corner of her mouth revealed an embarrassed smile. “I was happy to buy it for a while, but I forgot about my cousin’s share. However, the money I brought out today is about enough, but I think Madam Lan will prepare it for my cousin.”
Lan Shuya felt depressed in her heart and her face turned green and pale.
Forgot? Why didn’t you say you forgot when you asked me to choose? However, no matter how angry he was, he could not speak to Yun Xiao. Brother Han, who was beside him, whispered, “Cousin is the second young miss of the Lan Clan. You can’t keep letting Fourth Sister buy clothes for you, right? Others still think that Cousin is from our Yun Clan.”
Lan Shuya’s body stiffened and she slowly let out a sigh of relief, but her heart was still blocked. Madam Lan would buy clothes for herself, but how could those clothes be compared to what Yun Xiao bought?
Just as she was about to say something, she saw Yun Xiao’s body stiffen. She looked straight ahead and couldn’t help but look over.
