The Challenge of a Farmhouse Son-in-Law-Chapter 964 - 958: The Blind Date Mass Selection Turns into a New Product Launch Event
Chapter 964: Chapter 958: The Blind Date Mass Selection Turns into a New Product Launch Event
The Zhang Family’s position was such that they were an existence that even your Aunt would get a headache from. If she publicly exposed Miss Zhang’s sabotage, ruining her reputation in the palace, wouldn’t the Zhang Family hate her to death?
Gu Youyou had the Xiang Chun partition screen pulled up and started cutting the damaged fabrics into even smaller pieces, making them into tiny flowers.
The three days passed quickly, and everyone gathered in the Imperial Garden for the occasion.
After the snow stopped, the flowers in the Imperial Garden bloomed swiftly.
The young ladies each brought their own needlework on stage for Noble Consort Sheng to review.
Noble Consort Sheng sat above, inspecting personally, while the Empress and the Empress Dowager oversaw the work, along with many concubines from the Harem who followed to watch the excitement.
It had to be said that the girls of this era were very capable; in three days, there were those who embroidered, those who made jewelry, and even those who made embroidered shoes.
Clothing was more complex to make because a remarkable garment needed to feature embroidery too, and that couldn’t be done in just three days, so apart from Gu Youyou, no one else made clothes.
"Miss Chen’s plum blossom hairpin is extremely exquisite, isn’t it? It’s a flower too, so it fits the theme of spring blossoms, right?"
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Of course it fits. The plum blossom is the first flower of early spring."
"Miss Chen is truly skilled and talented. There are many young ladies who can embroider, but not many who can make hairpins," one of the concubines from the Harem said.
"Excellent, Miss Chen is shortlisted!" Then, Noble Consort Sheng personally replaced her token with a shortlisted one.
When it came to Gu Youyou, she was empty-handed.
Gu Youyou didn’t wait for Noble Consort Sheng to ask and explained, "Noble Consort, this piece of needlework I’ve made can’t be appreciated on its own, it must be worn."
"Oh, you’ve made clothes?" Noble Consort Sheng asked with a gentle smile on her face. "So, are you going to change into it?"
The Empress watched Gu Youyou coldly. So, it really was clothes? Let’s see what kind of clothes you’ve made in three days. Just don’t forget, not only does it have to be needlework, but it also has to fit the theme of spring blossoms. Don’t think you can just embroider a flower on it and present that.
"There’s no need," Gu Youyou replied to Noble Consort Sheng, then clapped her hands. A fairy in flowers appeared bouncing and hopping out from among the multitude of blooms, capturing everyone’s gaze because the clothes she wore were truly... unlike any they had ever seen before, vastly different from their usual attire.
The clothes designed by Manxiu Building were bold and eye-catching enough, but this was simply... indescribable.
Nevertheless, everyone understood one thing—it was too beautiful.
So, clothes could be made like this?
Indeed, even without embroidering flowers directly onto the clothes, one could still make attire that was a riot of blossoms.
These three-dimensional flowers were far superior to ordinary embroidered ones.
"Paying respects to Great Ancestral Mother, Mother Empress, Noble Consort,"
the little flower fairy said with a sweet smile, respectfully bowing to the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and Noble Consort Sheng sitting above.
It took a while for everyone to react, and the concubines gasped with surprise, saying, "Doctor Gu, is this the needlework you’ve made?"
Gu Youyou replied respectfully, "Your Grace, this is indeed my needlework. This dress shall be called ’Fairy in Flowers,’ and it will also be the main style for the upcoming season at Jinxiu Building. If Your Graces like it, you may place a preorder now."
At that moment, everyone recalled that Gu Youyou was indeed one of the backers of Manxiu Building.
"Ah, really? That’s great, I want one!"
"I want one too."
"I want one as well..."
This turned awkward as the matchmaking selection event had unexpectedly become Gu Youyou’s new product launch.
