Gu Qingwan raised her thin eyebrows, not expecting Jiang Ning to move so quickly.
"Is this good?"
"You'll know after you try it."
With firm eyes, Jiang Ning gently picked up the red silk cheongsam and handed it to Gu Qingwan gently.
Gu Qingwan took it immediately, then turned and walked into the locker room at the back.
few minutes.
I heard the clicking sound of high heels.
A beautiful girl with red lips, slightly curly long hair, a graceful figure, and white legs exposed from between two skirts.
Walk out slowly.
Just like that, he appeared in everyone's sight.
Gu Qingwan is still the same Gu Qingwan, and the cheongsam is still the same cheongsam.
But the feeling is completely different.
The red silk fabric is like the second layer of skin on a woman's body, fitting the S-shaped curve.
Round bust line, slender waist.
The skirt swings gently.
While highlighting Gu Qingwan's beautiful appearance, it also added an elegant and charming charm.
This is the Chinese cheongsam, its biggest feature.
Under Jiang Ning's skillful hands, he was brought into full play.
The people around who saw this scene widened their eyes in disbelief, with surprise on their faces.
I was amazed by Gu Qingwan's enchanting charm.
At the same time, I was also amazed by Jiang Ning's craftsmanship in turning decay into magic.
If I hadn't just seen it with my own eyes, I would hardly have believed it.
Wang Chunxia even exclaimed, "Sister Ning, you are so amazing...it's like you've changed into a different person! You're so good-looking...you're so good-looking! Just like the movie stars in the old movies."
This is a simple and admiring sentence.
I praised Jiang Ning and also praised Gu Qingwan.
It even made the owner of the tailor shop next to him look dumbfounded, while hot and ashamed sweat dripped down his forehead.
Gu Qingwan stood in front of a full-length mirror.
She swayed from side to side and looked around carefully from the front and side.
The cheongsam not only fit her figure, but was as new as ever, with no trace of modification at all.
This is also the most exquisite thing about Jiang Ning's craftsmanship.
It’s just that…
"There is a place where you can change it again."
When everyone was dumbfounded, Jiang Ning spoke up again.
Gu Qingwan looked at Jiang Ning and asked, "What else needs to be changed?"
"Ms. Gu, are you wearing this cheongsam for your wedding? The red satin silk fabric and the embroidered patterns on it are both excellent. But with such a complicated and rich texture, paired with a one-line button, it looks too ordinary. The matching is not harmonious.”
Jiang Ning said carefully.
The "one-word button" refers to the collar of the cheongsam, from the chest side, to the waist, and then to the thigh.
A button that fastens the entire cheongsam skirt.
After listening to Jiang Ning's words, Gu Qingwan looked at the mirror carefully.
She touched the button on her collar and said.
"No wonder I looked at it just now, as if something was missing somewhere. It turns out that the problem is with the buttons. Besides a straight button, what else can it be paired with?"
"In addition to straight buttons, cheongsam buttons also include butterfly buttons, plum blossom buttons, flower basket buttons, gourd buttons, coiled dragon buttons... and many other styles. Since it is worn for weddings, I think the most suitable one is 'Ruyi knot buckle', not only the style of the buckle is beautiful, but also has a good meaning."
Jiang Ning explained carefully and seriously.
The flowers are clustered in clusters, bringing good fortune as one wishes.
Satin fabric with flower embroidery, paired with Ruyi knots, is the most suitable.
When Gu Qingwan heard this, she was immediately moved.
She glanced at the tailor shop owner and asked, "Does your master know this?"
"Miss Gu, really...can't..."
The boss immediately touched the sweat on his face, blushed, and shook his head in embarrassment.
In their area, it is not popular to wear cheongsam, and the old masters do not have the skills. It is already quite difficult to make ordinary one-line buttons. How can there be more complicated coiled buttons.
It was this young lady from Shanghai who was too generous, so he was blinded by lard and took over this business.
Gu Qingwan withdrew her contemptuous eyes.
When she looked at Jiang Ning again, the expression on her face had already changed.
She asked, “If I leave it to you to change it, how long will it take.
Jiang Ning replied, "I live in a military camp on the mountain. The next time I go down the mountain will be in ten days."
"It turns out she is the military wife who is accompanying the army."
Gu Qingwan nodded slightly and looked at Jiang Ning with more admiration in her eyes.
She went on to say.
"Okay, ten days is all. My wedding is in half a month, so I can make it in time. Then you can send the cheongsam to this shop. The cost will be one hundred yuan."
As soon as this statement came out.
Jiang Ning didn't even speak.
There were several gasps immediately.
And——a voice that Jiang Ning was all too familiar with.
"What? What! What!! How much did you just say? One...one hundred yuan?! Isn't that just one month's salary of our old Chen?! My old Chen worked hard for seven years and finally became the battalion commander. That’s why you get so much salary!”
The person who spoke was Liu Xiangmei.
When Jiang Ning heard the sound and looked over, he happened to see Liu Xiangmei's jaw dropped in shock.
Liu Xiangmei was surrounded by several sisters-in-law from the military compound.
They probably made an appointment to go shopping in the department store together, but when they saw so many people gathered outside the tailor shop, they squeezed in to watch the fun.
Never imagined.
He unexpectedly met Jiang Ning and heard such a shocking words.
That’s a hundred dollars!
A whole hundred yuan!
In this era, ordinary soldiers who first joined the army only received twenty or thirty yuan at most, and then their wages and allowances increased year by year. Like Chen Wenbin, who was promoted to battalion commander, only one hundred yuan a month.
Nowadays...
"Can't you just make needlework and mend clothes, and still make so much money?"
Liu Xiangmei's eyes turned red with jealousy.
When Jiang Ning heard her words, a sneer filled her heart.
With her skills, in a previous life, someone asked her to customize a cheongsam, and the deposit for the craftsmanship fee alone started at 50,000 yuan.
In this way, the construction period has been scheduled to two years later.
Nowadays it only costs a hundred yuan, which is completely inexpensive.
Seeing that Liu Xiangmei was still chattering, Jiang Ning's face darkened and he was about to start the taunting and questioning mode.
But there was someone who was faster than her.
Wang Chunxia stood up immediately.
She hadn't spoken much since Jiang Ning entered the tailor shop. She was completely shocked by everything that happened.
It's like entering a strange world.
Fantasy and reality.
She watched Jiang Ning go about his work and saw with her own eyes what it means to "turn decay into magic".
Jiang Ning's white and delicate hands seemed to be magical.
She is like the seven fairies in the fairy tale!
When Wang Chunxia heard Liu Xiangmei's words, she stood up suddenly and yelled back at her.
"Liu Xiangmei, what do you know! Jiang Ning's craftsmanship is better than the old master of this tailor shop! Miss Gu is willing to pay this money, what are you talking about! What are you yelling about?!"
