In the courtyard of Yanjing University, except for a few four-season green trees in the flower beds, the other trees are already bare.
Aunt Hua is cleaning this huge courtyard with a broom. The bigger the yard, the more likely it is to become deserted, so it needs to be cleaned frequently. Otherwise, if a piece of grass or a sapling comes out somewhere, it will easily lift up the floor tiles.
In addition, if the house is not occupied for a long time, it will be prone to dampness, so when the weather is good, the door should be opened to ventilate the house.
Yang Dongxu is still in Hangzhou and has not returned to Yanjing for the time being, but the courtyard here is quite lively today. Zhuo Qing'er came back and was discussing the design of wedding clothes with Dong Yao in the house.
It's almost the end of the year, so we need to start making various wedding dresses. The designer of the entire wedding dress must be none other than Zhuo Qing'er.
"Because the wedding is being held in a rural area, the kind of fengguanxiapei that looks very gorgeous and requires several people to drag the hem of the skirt is fine. That one looks too exaggerated and is not very practical.
Of course, that doesn't mean that you don't want Fengguan Xiapei. You must pay attention to getting married once in your life. What I'm talking about is not to have such an exaggerated look, you can't have less of what you should have.
For example, the jewelry on the phoenix crown, the pearls, the gold thread on the clothes and other useful things must be there. "Zhuo Qing'er took out the design drawings for Dong Yao to choose. Dong Yao was accompanied by Zhang Qian and Tong Yaya.
Tong Yaya has been filming with the team before, and the current filming progress is very good. Because the director was dissatisfied with the Hengdian set and took people to the south to look for real-life filming locations, I took a few days off.
I originally went back to Yanjing to rest for two days and wanted to go shopping with Dong Yao, but by chance, Dong Yao pulled me over to look at wedding clothes together.
The Yang family does not wear wedding dresses when they get married. They basically follow traditional weddings, so clothes such as dresses, dragon and phoenix gowns are indispensable, so Zhuo Qinger gave Dong Yao dozens of designs to choose from.
The design drawings are not sketches, but miniatures with various colors that are almost based on the proportions of real clothes. And the drawings are very detailed, with pictures on the front, back, left and right, so you can clearly see what the wedding dress should look like and what color it is, even if you don't have the actual item yet.
"This is a bit too much, how do you choose?" Seeing the design drawings spread out in front of her, Dong Yao was dazzled when she went shopping to look at clothes. Today, she was dazzled when she saw the design drawings for the first time.
Not only Zhang Qian and Tong Yaya next to her also looked surprised. This is not a wedding dress design. There must be something like this in the clothing exhibition. The clothes on this drawing are so beautiful and gorgeous.
Even though Zhuo Qing'er said she needed some exaggerated wedding clothes, she didn't just want those dragging skirts. There are also many other things that the entire wedding dress should have.
Especially from Zhuo Qing'er's mouth, what is needed is gold here, pearls are needed there, jewelry, gold wire and other materials for making dresses are needed here. This is not a wedding dress, this is simply a family heirloom.
"They are all very beautiful, but aren't the gems and pearls a bit too luxurious?" Dong Yao tried her best to take her eyes away from the design and said to Dong Yao next to her.
To be honest, in the past, among her people, when they got married, the other party would give her a piece of jewelry worth millions, which was only available to rich people.
She really never thought that one day she would get married wearing a wedding dress worth millions. Although Zhuo Qing'er didn't say the cost of making wedding clothes.
But just looking at the various gold wires and gem embellishments on the design, if these things were made of real materials, they would definitely cost millions.
If all top-quality gems were used, it could cost tens of millions. This is just the production cost of a wedding suit. According to Zhuo Qing'er, a total of three sets are required for marriage.
Although it follows traditional etiquette, there are some changes in some places because it is modern. For example, after the wedding ceremony, the bride does not have to sit in the wedding room like in ancient times and wait for her husband to come back after drinking and take off the hijab.
But after worshiping, you can go out to eat and toast to relatives and friends. So when you get married, you need a set of wedding clothes for the formal ceremony, you need a set when you have a meal and a toast, and then you definitely need a set of casual clothes when you go back to the room after the toast.
Although the toast clothes and the final casual clothes do not need to be as exaggerated as the previous wedding clothes, if they were made according to Zhuo Qing'er's request, that set would cost hundreds of thousands, which is more expensive than other people's formal wedding dresses.
"Don't worry about these. Anyway, Xuzi has a lot of gems, pearls and so on. If you keep them, they will gather dust, so you might as well use them for your own family.
In this generation of our family, apart from Ajie, the only one left who is married is Feifei and his younger brother. If these things are used again in the future, it will have to wait until Wen Chen gets married.
Although these things are not bad, your cousin Yang Dongxu belongs to Pixiu. There are so many things in the house that are of no use. They are sent to the warehouse every year, so I will take advantage of your wedding to help him consume them. Zhuo Qing'er said, telling Dong Yao not to care about these trivial matters.
To be honest, the Yang family doesn't care at all about how much it costs to make wedding clothes. The high cost of making wedding clothes is not because the Yang family wants to show off, it's just that they don't want to fool them with fake things.
After all, it’s not like I don’t have these things at home, or I can’t afford the real ones. They are all made from real materials, so the production cost of this wedding dress is naturally not low.
"But these are too luxurious!" Dong Yao said.
It would be a lie to say that she is not moved. That woman does not want her wedding to be glamorous or even unique. But thinking about it is the same thing. When you really put such a luxurious thing in front of yourself, and even need to put it on yourself, this is really...
how to say!
Dong Yao was a little afraid. She was afraid that a pearl would cost tens of thousands if her clothes were rubbed casually.
"Why do you always care about these details when I let you choose a style? Hurry up and choose me so that I can be cut. Time is already a bit tight!" Zhuo Qing'er said.
Zhang Qian and Tong Yaya looked at each other in confusion. Do rich people always speak so plainly?
What do you mean by ignoring these details? Their monthly salary is probably not enough for this detail. Adding up these many details, they would never dare to expect such extravagance in their lives.
"How about I discuss it with Ajie?" Dong Yao said.
"You just have to choose. What will a man choose? You choose yours, and then you can just make a matching one for him. Anyway, men's wedding clothes don't have many details and are very simple."
Dong Yao didn't know what to say for a while. The discussion she said didn't mean choosing which one. This wedding dress was too luxurious and expensive, and she didn't dare to choose it without discussing it with Yang Dongjie.
Zhuo Qing'er obviously knew what Dong Yao meant, so he continued, "You really don't have to feel so much pressure, just treat her like ordinary wedding clothes and wear the style you like.
As for workmanship and materials, just treat it as ordinary workmanship and use fake things. "
"How can this be taken as false?" Dong Yao said with a bitter smile.
