Chapter 107 Your God of Wealth is Here
Qin Shuyu's courtyard looks elegant from the outside, and it looks even more stylish once you enter.
Although the vines on the rockery have withered, it is not difficult to imagine the scene of being surrounded by green vines in the spring of next year.
There is still some snow from last night by the small pond, and the landscape created by the strange rocks by the pond is also unique.
There is a dead tree in the middle of the yard. It is a cherry tree. Qin Shuyu makes wine every year with the sour cherries from the tree.
It might be a problem with the variety. The cherries on the tree were really unpalatable. Her winemaking skills were average, and the cherry wine was also unpalatable.
Yu Jiang advised her more than once to stop this time-consuming and useless work, but she said it was just for fun.
This courtyard is not only Qin Shuyu's residence, but also her clothing studio.
Qin Shuyu's studio only makes two styles of clothes, cheongsam and clothing with Chinese elements.
Opening a studio in such an inconvenient location, you can imagine the customer flow.
Besides, she has a lot of things to do, so she only accepts made-to-measure clothing and does not sell ready-made clothes.
In order to prevent her friends from starving to death, Yu Jiang wore cheongsam on almost all important occasions.
However, before filming the variety show, her financial resources were limited. Qin Shuyu was particular about the materials she used, and the price of each piece of clothing was comparable to high-end couture.
So if you have watched all of Yu Jiang’s film festival videos, it is not difficult to find that she has worn many cheongsams more than once.
"Where are the people? Your God of Wealth has come, why don't you come out to greet him?"
When she came in and didn't see anyone, Yu Jiang decisively started shouting. She was a local tycoon today and had to show off.
The house opposite the gate is the studio and reception room, the bedroom is behind the tree on the east side, and the warehouse is behind the rockery.
Qin Shuyu came out of the warehouse. She ignored Yu Jiang's noise and ran over excitedly.
"Jiang Jiang, you came just in time. I was just thinking of calling you. I'll show you the new material I got. It's really great!"
Gong Jianan was used to being ignored. She couldn't understand what the two sisters were talking about anyway, so she just went to the living room to play with the cat.
Qin Shuyu enthusiastically showed Yu Jiang her newly acquired brocade, but Yu Jiang's attention was on the table where the brocade was placed.
"Erbao, this table of yours is a great thing. Where did you get it? Are you finally home?"
As Yu Jiang spoke, he knocked on the old sandalwood table. It was square and thick in shape. Such a large piece of material was hard to find, not to mention that it was obviously old. It was probably worth the money Yu Jiang would spend on recording a variety show.
"No, my brother moved here the day before yesterday." Qin Shuyu replied nonchalantly and continued to talk about what she was interested in.
"Don't look at the table, Jiang Jiang, look at the material! You must have never seen this piece of brocade before. It took me a lot of effort to find it!"
At Qin Shuyu's request, Yu Jiang could only carefully look at the brocade that was half spread on the table.
The weaving method of the fabric is similar to that of brocade, but the geometric pattern seems to be different from that of brocade. If you look closely, you will find that gold thread is mixed in the blue and white brocade.
"I've never seen it before. What good thing is that?" Qin Shuyu became even more proud when she heard Yu Jiang say he had never seen it before.
"You haven't seen it before? This is ancient Song brocade! You can see the gold threads inside, but you probably don't know that its dyes are all natural! Didn't I go to the south a few days ago, and then..."
Qin Shuyu started talking as soon as she started talking, and she stopped only when her mouth became dry.
While she was drinking tea, Yu Jiang patted the brocade generously and said, "What kind of brocade is this? I'll wrap it up and make a cheongsam for me!"
"Song Jin, Song Jin! I just talked for so long, but was it all in vain?" Qin Shuyu put down her teacup and complained with a frown.
Before Yu Jiang could get a word in, she continued, "But this piece of material has to be made into a cheongsam, and I've already figured out how to do it."
"Add a plain-colored edging, a more traditional square button with a plain color, and a transparent button, and finally a tourmaline collar button, it's perfect!"
Qin Shuyu was so addicted to talking that she suddenly seemed to wake up and said, "By the way, do you have money now? My information is valuable."
Yu Jiang patted her purse and said, "Use the card. I have plenty of money~"
"Oh, Sister Jiang Jiang, you are so rich!" Qin Shuyu deliberately put on a flattering look, "I made two ready-made ones according to your body size, how about you take a look?"
Yu Jiang took the money and raised his hand modestly, "Well, let's go."
"Yes!" Qin Shuyu cooperated, holding her hand with a fist, slightly bent over and helped her to the studio.
Passing by the reception room, Gong Jianan, who was holding a big white cat, saw this and widened her eyes, "What's going on? Did the old Buddha leave the palace?"
Qin Shuyu pinched his throat and pretended to be a eunuch, "Hey, where are you? This is the God of Wealth descending to earth~"
Gong Jianan shook off the goose bumps on his body and said, "Shuyu, I'll take you into the industry someday. There's no problem with your voice and acting."
"No way! I have to concentrate on serving the old Buddha." Qin Shuyu was quite into the role, "Old Buddha, please be careful on the steps~"
Following the young eunuch into the studio, I realized that she had made five or six cheongsams based on Yu Jiang's measurements. It was also obvious that she didn't have many regular clients.
Yu Jiang pulled at the clothes and said, "Comrade Qin Erbao, I'm interviewing you. There are so many things. What if I don't like your plans?"
Qin Shuyu said confidently: "If you like it, buy it. If you don't like it, I'll give it to you."
Yu Jiang: I am speechless...
Fortunately, she is making money now, otherwise Qin Shuyu's studio would have lost money sooner or later.
Just in time to appear more serious about participating in the new program, Gong Jianan and Yu Jiang directly chose a very casual cheongsam from these outfits to wear for the live broadcast tomorrow.
Of course, the remaining few pieces were also taken, including the hard-earned Song brocade that Qin Shuyu mentioned. Nearly one-third of Yu Jiang's money was gone.
In the reception room, Gong Jianan took two photos of Yu Jiang wearing a cheongsam and sent them to the program team to help the male guests decide on their clothing combinations.
Yu Jiang chose this outfit for the show not because it is beautiful, but because it is made of the cheapest material here and he would not feel bad if it got damaged.
Before the two of them left the courtyard, Qin Shuyu brought some pickles that she had made herself to Yu Jiang, and then happily sent them out.
After leaving, Gong Jianan asked in a low voice: "Can we eat the pickled vegetables this time?"
"Nonsense." Yu Jiang didn't hesitate for a second, "Of course I'll find a place to throw it away later."
Gong Jianan hesitated and said, "After all, it's someone else's intention..."
Yu Jiang interrupted immediately, "Then you eat?"
"Which trash can should I throw it in?" Gong Jianan got food poisoning after eating Qin Shuyu's pickles last time.
"Hmph~" Yu Jiangduo warned, "Remember, all my female friends outside the circle, except you, don't eat the food cooked by others."
Gong Jianan teased, "So, you are still the best cook among your friends? At least I haven't been poisoned."
