Chapter 514: Measuring Ruler
Chapter 514 ·Measuring Ruler
This is how the Chinese New Year should be.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, and in the afternoon, the woman from the tailor shop came to the door happily. She was accompanied by two apprentices, both dressed as young women. Maybe they were not used to being in public like this, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.
Looking at people, they kept their heads down and said nothing. The woman in the tailor shop even winked a few times, but they just couldn't help it.
Seeing this, the mother-in-law was so angry that her liver ached. She could only bite the bullet and smile at Mrs. Huang, "Madam, please don't be offended. They are all people from a small family. They have never seen much of the world. When they meet strangers, they will
Like cicadas in winter - silent. I confessed again and again at home, but it’s still like this. I don’t know what to do.”
Mrs. Huang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, just take your time." She was unusually polite to a few people and ordered Cui's mother to serve tea and fruits.
The woman in the tailor shop has been traveling from house to house since she was young. She is well-informed and sharp-tongued. When she saw this, she immediately got up and gave Huang a blessing, "Amitabha, it must be Mrs. Tang. She treats people better than others."
You're welcome, no wonder people outside just mention the Tang family
He was full of praise. People like us live by our craftsmanship and are not welcomed by anyone wherever we go. We can speak well when we meet someone who is easy to talk to, and at least we can have a good face. But when we meet someone who is so stubborn, we will lose our temper.
He didn't even smile, but it seemed like we owed him a lot of money and hadn't paid him back."
While they were talking, Cui's mother brought tea. The woman in the tailor shop smiled and said to the two apprentices, "Look, we still have our tea to drink. It's not easy for other people to have a place to sit. You still want to drink water?"
Isn’t that a dream in broad daylight?”
The two apprentices responded dully, looking reserved and embarrassed.
However, Mrs. Huang did not want to have too much communication with her. After all, if such a person came in and out of the Zhang family and Li family, they would not know what the words would be spread in the future. Many private matters in the family were spread randomly by them.
, in the end it became such an uproar that no one could cover it up.
You can't offend someone, just treat them politely and don't reveal anything.
Mrs. Huang talked about the usefulness of making clothes with the woman in the tailor shop. The woman pretended to be surprised and smiled and said, "This is really a great joy!" She patted her chest and assured her, "Madam, don't worry about this.
Since your son has been put into my hands, there is no doubt that he will do his best. It is rare for my wife to be trustworthy. Not only can the life be guaranteed, but I will also keep an eye on the workmanship. I guarantee that every stitch will not go wrong. The eldest young master is well-dressed, and this wedding will definitely be a success.
Smoothly."
Huang nodded, "Then it's all up to you to worry about."
"It's all within my duties." The woman in the tailor shop took two sips of tea and said in amazement, "Oh my god, what kind of blessings have my mouth received in my previous life to be able to taste such pure tea. Madam, you are so
You are such a good person, and you use such good tea to entertain guests. If it were me, I would be so distressed that I don’t even know what to do.”
Huang laughed and said, "It's not a good thing. If you like to drink it, I'll pack some for you to take back to your family to try."
The woman in the tailor shop said with great joy, "Amitabha, Mrs. Tang is still generous, but why should I have the nerve to accept your things?" But the conversation changed and she immediately said, "Although we say no reward for no merit, the Tang family has a great business after all.
Sir, you have given me face, and it would be a bit bad for me to refuse. In this case, I will accept it, and I will praise you when I meet others in the future, so that everyone around me will know the generosity of the Tang family."
Mrs. Huang was most afraid of her talking nonsense. When she heard this, she immediately said, "It's just a little thought, not enough to tell outsiders. Besides, if word spreads, more people will come to the house in the future, and I can't give tea to everyone.
At that time, it will inevitably make people think that one is favoring one over the other, which is not good, what do you think?"
The woman in the tailor shop didn't think much about it, she just felt that it was a great honor. Mrs. Tang didn't give anything to others, but she gave it to herself. Didn't she think highly of herself? She straightened her back and glanced at the two apprentices proudly.
He glanced at me and said, "Look at how confused I am. Fortunately, Madam reminded me, otherwise my mouth will cause trouble for you again. Don't worry, I will definitely keep my mouth shut and will not talk nonsense to outsiders."
I have made my words very clear, and it is other people's business to decide what to do.
Mrs. Huang smiled and nodded, and asked Cui's mother to call Tang Xuexing over to measure the size.
Tang Xuezhen strode into the door very quickly. Naturally, the two apprentices did not dare to look at them. They could only help cautiously. However, the woman in the tailor shop talked nonsense when she saw Tang Xuezhen. When she saw Tang Xuezhen, she praised her.
He spoke as if he didn't need money, saying whatever came to his mind, "Look at this handsome young man, I don't know who his young lady is."
You are so lucky to meet the eldest young master of our Tang family. I am not boasting. After visiting so many families, your eldest young master looks the gentlest. He seems to have a good temper and is easy to get along with. Unlike others.
The men in my family, because of how rich their family is, don’t take others seriously. I don’t look down on such people..."
Tang Xuexuan felt uncomfortable talking about it, but she still insisted on letting the other party measure the size.
The woman in the tailor shop exclaimed in surprise, "Look at the width of the shoulders. You can see that she is responsible and reliable. Look at the chest again. It must be broad-minded and able to handle many things. Besides, the waist and the physique... Mrs. Tang, if my family has
Having such a good son makes me so happy that I can’t sleep at night.”
Tang Xuezhen couldn't stay any longer. Seeing that she had nothing to do, she immediately said to Huang, "Mom, Dad has something to do with me, so I'll go over first. If you have any orders, I'll arrange for someone to go there."
Just call me."
Huang knew that her son was not good at dealing with such people, "Go ahead."
Tang Xuexuan seemed to have run away.
Mrs. Huang left the tailor shop's mother-in-law to talk for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, the mother-in-law said, "Mrs. Tang, the eldest young master's clothes are serious business. I will rush back and arrange the cutting for him."
Sewing, don’t worry about not being able to catch it out.”
Mrs. Huang didn't stay long and sent her out in person. Cui's mother took the opportunity to step forward and delivered the wrapped tea leaves to her mother-in-law.
The woman in the tailor shop was even more happy. She felt that Huang was a very good person and had given her enough dignity. On the way out, she said gratefully, "Madam, just don't worry, if this dress is not made well, I will be a penny."
I don’t dare to ask for it. It’s not an exaggeration for me to come to your door to apologize for delaying the eldest young master’s business.”
Huang said politely, "Who doesn't know your craftsmanship? It's one of the best in Hangzhou, otherwise I wouldn't be rushing to ask for your help."
This was what the tailor shop woman was thinking, and she suddenly said with a proud look on her face, "What kind of craftsmanship is not craftsmanship? Who doesn't make clothes like this? It's just regular customers enjoying the food. To tell you the truth,
I just came out of Ma's house this morning. Their second son, like your eldest son, is getting engaged after the new year, so why don't they call me over to measure him?"
"Really?" Mrs. Huang asked with a smile, "Whose girl is this girl?"
"I don't know about that," said the wife of the tailor shop, "I'm not a talkative person who likes to inquire about things. As for the in-laws... Mrs. Ma didn't mention it at all, and the second young master of the Ma family didn't even have a smile on his face.
No, I can tell by their appearance that they don’t want to. They must not be a good family! The Ma family is really worse than the last generation nowadays. In the early years, the family of poets and calligraphers said it
It sounds better, but now it is of no use at all. How about the old saying that a scholar is useless? I heard someone say... There is no matchmaker willing to accept the marriage of the second young master of the Ma family, but Mr. Ma is a careless person.
I thought my son would have to rush to get it, but when the girl’s family heard about the Ma family’s situation, they all shook their heads, which was even worse than that rattle.”
