Chapter 381: Gentle and elegant emerald green cheongsam

Gu Xiaoqi nodded and returned to the workshop.

Continue to devote yourself to the work of repairing defective products.

She already had some preliminary ideas in her mind, and when she got home tonight, she would start working on the composition.

However, before that, she had to go to the Siheyuan, and today was the time she had agreed to buy the Siheyuan.

I don’t know if the eldest sister can convince his two brothers!

Gu Xiaoqi arrived at the gate of the courtyard. The door was open and voices could be heard from inside.

"Do you know how busy I am? If I can't sell this house today, and that person has cheated you, don't look for me in the future! I'm not short of money!"

"That's right~ If you hadn't begged me and my brother, we would have wasted a day's wages to wait here with you. Maybe they are just playing a trick on you! In ten minutes, if they don't come, we will leave!"

The eldest sister said in a flattering voice, "No, no, the house in front was bought by the little girl. She didn't even make a move. I believe she will come! Big brother, thank you for coming today. I was blinded by greed and said so many hurtful words to you! Now I really understand that I was wrong. Don't be angry! After all, our family is connected by heart!"

"Hmph~ Stop talking like that! You can't stand it! You are so capable! A respectable person! Unlike us who are not respectable! If it weren't for your son's marriage, would you talk like that? Stop being so hypocritical! I tell you! This is the only chance. If the buyer doesn't come today, there won't be a next time!"

The elder sister was also panicking, and hurried to the door and looked out, and saw Gu Xiaoqi standing at the door.

"Hey! Girl, you're really here! Come in, come in!"

The eldest sister's eyes were red and she almost cried when she looked at Gu Xiaoqi.

Gu Xiaoqi felt a little sad watching this scene. How difficult it is to be successful in this world! There are always times when you can't help yourself.

Although this matter has cause and effect, and there must be hateful aspects in pitiful people, but when Gu Xiaoqi saw the elder sister burst into laughter, he couldn't help feeling sad.

"Sister, I will definitely come if I say so!"

As soon as Gu Xiaoqi entered the house, the eldest sister's two older brothers said to her with disbelief in their eyes: "You are not kidding us brothers, are you? How can such a young girl like her buy such an expensive house? I said you have bad intentions! You feel bad if you don't embarrass us, right!"

2700 yuan is the salary of an ordinary worker for nearly four years without eating or drinking. How can an ordinary girl afford it?

Gu Xiaoqi opened the bag directly, which was full of bundles of big tuans. Needless to say, the two brothers immediately shut up when they saw this.

The three siblings and Gu Xiaoqi went directly to the Housing Authority to transfer the property. After Gu Xiaoqi got the property certificate, he said something to his eldest sister and left.

The elder sister originally wanted to thank Gu Xiaoqi very much. After all, if she couldn’t sell it this time, she would have no chance next time.

She will regret it for the rest of her life for having delayed her son's lifelong event!

But Gu Xiaoqi was not interested in other people's family affairs, so naturally she would not listen to her elder sister chattering to her.

Gu Xiaoqi returned home just in time for dinner, and then went to the study on the second floor to start composing the picture.

Now the study room on the second floor is full of Gu Xiaoqi’s things. Lu Jingze doesn’t use it at all, and Lu Jingan basically doesn’t use the study room either.

So the study on the second floor is basically Gu Xiaoqi’s exclusive studio.

The wives of wealthy businessmen tend to have rounder figures but are tall and strong, but that doesn’t mean they are completely useless. At least their tall stature gives them some advantages in terms of proportions.

Since it is to be worn by a wealthy wife at her daughter's wedding, the fabric must not be a very dark color. Perhaps ordinary people would use it, but the wealthy wife would definitely not like it.

Festive but not tacky, elegant but not too overwhelming.

After much hesitation, Gu Xiaoqi drew three compositions of cheongsam with different background colors. After a night of constant revision and improvement, Gu Xiaoqi finally chose the one with a gentle emerald green background.

The wives of wealthy businessmen usually have a very grand image, with jewels and precious stones on their bodies. They will definitely attract everyone's attention as soon as they appear.

So in order to appear dignified and elegant without being too eye-catching, Gu Xiaoqi chose a cheongsam in emerald green.

The surface is embroidered with delicate and light floral patterns. The cheongsam reaches the calves, the sides are edged with gold thread, and the slits are to the knees. It is not too short and makes the legs look longer.

The silk fabric of the cheongsam is matched with gold thread, and the body seems to be covered with a layer of emerald green glow. The lifelike peony flowers embroidered on the hem of the skirt highlight the elegance and nobility of women.

Gu Xiaoqi has two plans. It is said that the rich businessman’s wife’s in-laws are political officials, so they cannot be too high-profile. This is also a tacit understanding between the two families.

Therefore, Gu Xiaoqi's design is that the cheongsam will be matched with jade elements on the collar and buttons, and matched with matching jade bracelets and earrings, which will definitely complement each other.

Secondly, matching it with pearls will make it more low-key, yet still elegant and dignified, making the whole person appear gentle and generous.

The next day, everyone's cheongsam designs were handed in one by one. After screening by the wealthy businessman's wife and Dongfang Jing, seven designers including Gu Xiaoqi were successfully selected and could apply for fabrics for production in the store.

The wealthy businessman's wife was very interested in Gu Xiaoqi's design. Other people's designs were quite conventional, either dark red or dark green.

As long as Gu Xiaoqi's color is not so dark, but instead a clear emerald green, she actually likes light colors in her heart, but because it is her daughter's wedding and her in-laws' special status, she still maintains a reserved attitude towards light colors.

After listening to Gu Xiaoqi's explanation, the wealthy businessman's wife suddenly realized that wearing a light-colored cheongsam to attend a wedding, as long as it was matched properly, would not steal the show and would not be too high-profile.

The wealthy businessman's wife was very much looking forward to Gu Xiaoqi's finished products. She asked Gu Xiaoqi to make two sets of finished products, using jadeite materials and pearl jewelry directly from the wealthy businessman's wife's home.

The wealthy businessman’s wife said that even if this cheongsam is not worn to a wedding, it is perfectly suitable for attending events on a daily basis.

So regardless of whether Gu Xiaoqi was selected or not, the fact is that he caught the eye of the wealthy businessman’s wife, which means he is only one step away from success.

Some of the other designers in the store were convinced, while others were envious, but no one dared to trouble Xiaoqi in person or be sarcastic to her.

The preliminary prototype has come out, and Gu Xiaoqi then worked hard. After several days of hard work, two cheongsams of the same color but different styles were completed.
