The books in the library of Shangdu University must be useful. Liu Yong studies every day without sleep or food.
But how can those boring text materials compare with color pictures!
Xia Xiaolan is because she has seen countless decoration examples in later generations. She has decorated houses herself, and there are countless examples in her work and life. The hotels she stayed in, and even the shopping malls she visited casually, bought A coffee shop for coffeeit's rare that a place doesn't decorate. She has seen countless decorations in her mind, and she even witnessed the changes in domestic decoration styles since the 1990s. It doesn't matter if she studied interior design, she can know roughly how to decorate a house with her eyes closed.
Liu Yong will die.
Born as a farmer, he has few decoration examples, and now the way of graphic information transmission is backward, so it is too difficult for him to imagine out of thin air.
With a decoration magazine with color pictures, it is like saving Liu Yong from the dire straits.
He was happier getting these materials than receiving the briefcase from Xia Xiaolan. Xia Xiaolan wanted to take him to a tailor shop to order a suit, but Liu Yong hated wasting time, and Li Fengmei couldn't figure it out:
"Why does your uncle wear a suit like that? Even if you want to wear a suit, can you just pick up two suits in the store?"
Xia Xiaolan said that the suits in the store are not good, "If my uncle decorates Kang Wei's house well, he will be able to receive orders in the capital, and he must be believed to be capable when it comes to dressing."
Liu Yong was taken to a tailor shop.
Of course it wasn't the shop where Xia Xiaolan rented irons. There are plenty of tailor shops in Shangdu, and as long as they can afford it, there are also good materials.
It was because Xia Xiaolan was in such a hurry that the tailor shop owner was in a difficult situation.
For those who open a shop and do business, there is no difficulty that the Great Unity cannot defeat. If there is any difficulty, it must be that the Great Unity does not give enough! Xia Xiaolan didn't spare the labor cost, and the tailor shop agreed to rush out two suits for Liu Yong in three days. Xia Xiaolan also asked that the suits should fit well, without the long sleeves covering the back of the hands, and the crinkled trousers not piled up at the ankles.
There can be a little shoulder pads, but not too exaggerated.
In short, the clothes must fit Liu Yong's figure just right. Xia Xiaolan's words to the tailor are:
"The size of a suit, you can only add a shirt and a woolen vest inside, it can't be any looser!"
So tight?
No one makes suits like this now.
In winter, you need to add a sweater inside a suit. A suit is so small. If you gain weight, or if it¡¯s cold and you want to add more clothes inside, wouldn¡¯t it be impossible to button it?
The master tailor frowned deeply, and he was tired of dealing with customers who were completely ignorant.
But this ignorant customer seemed to have a lot of money. He chose the most expensive material and paid twice the wages. The tailor recorded the size according to Xia Xiaolan's instructions, and repeatedly emphasized that if the clothes don't look good, they won't be refunded. .
The size is so buttoned, and Liu Yong is not tall. The suits made in this way are not suitable for others to wear. If Xia Xiaolan doesn't want the goods, the tailor shop can't find other buyers.
"I'm sure I won't return the product, so I've made you worry."
Well, the person who pays has the final say.
Walking out of the tailor shop, Liu Yong, who has always been generous, felt very heartbroken. He always thought that the clothes sold in his shop were expensive, but he didn't expect there to be such a dark tailor shop in Shangdu. A suit cost more than 200 yuan. Xia Xiaolan ordered two sets for him, and it cost more than 500 yuan! How could Liu Yong ask his niece to pay for this money? He paid it himself.
People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and Liu Yong is also afraid of the capital.
He has never been to the capital, and he has a natural awe of the capital, afraid that he will be ashamed in the capital as a small local. Liu Yong has no objection to making such an expensive suit, but Liu Yong has another concern: Kang Wei and Zhou Cheng know each other so well, the family must know each other, if he embarrasses in front of Kang's family, what is the difference between embarrassing in front of Zhou Cheng's family!
You can't embarrass your niece, Liu Yong sticks out his chest:
"When will we book tickets? Do you really want to go together? If you want me to say that you can study at home, the college entrance examination is 4 months away"
How to decorate Kang Wei's house?
Liu Yong got some decoration magazines, so he followed suit.
Xia Xiaolan shook her head, "I'll stop by to see Zhou Cheng."
Liu Yong is so sour in his heart!
What's so good about Zhou Cheng that he won't run away.
It's rare for young people to be in a relationship. It's only been a long time since we separated, and we have to run to see Zhou Cheng. The concept in Liu Yong's mind is still the mainstream nowadays. Quite a few of those who are married to soldiers as military wives see each other once a year. If they are separated by two places, how can they all go to the army to visit like Xia Xiaolan? In other words, Xia Xiaolan is not short of money.??The train ticket is so expensive, and the living expenses of ordinary people are a month.
So, what kind of object is there before the college entrance examination, how distracting it is.
While complaining, Liu Yong still had to remember his status as an uncle to book train tickets for Xia Xiao.
? Liu Yong brought two workers over from the Shangdu, plus he himself was 3 people, carpenters can be hired in the capital. Including Xia Xiaolan and Gong Yang, a student of the Art Department of Shangdu University, a total of 5 train tickets to the capital had to be booked.
Three days later, Liu Yong's two suits were ready.
Xia Xiaolan picked out two shirts for him to match in the store, and walked out of the fitting room. Liu Yong looked at himself in the fitting mirror, and felt that a suit cost more than two hundred, and the money was not wasted!
The Liu family are all good looking.
Otherwise, Xia Xiaolan wouldn't want to look so good-looking.
However, Liu Yong didn't have enough nutrition when he was a child. He was less than 1.7 meters tall and was quite thin, so he couldn't show his masculinity.
The jacket of this suit is short, and the pants are of the right length. Wearing it on Liu Yong makes him look taller. The clothes fit him well, and he was full of energy. Apart from his dark skin, his facial features were really good.
Li Fengmei was dumbfounded, is this her man?
Her son was in elementary school, and it was the first time Li Fengmei noticed that her man was quite handsome.
Xia Xiaolan handed the briefcase to Liu Yong. He put it under his arm and tried to take two steps: "It's quite like those southern bosses."
Xia Xiaolan packed her uncle's clothes before setting off for the capital. Gong Yang was carrying a bag, which contained his change of clothes and painting tools. He told his teachers and classmates that he was going to sketch in the capital, and his roommates envied him.
Gong Yang didn't expect that, just to help others draw a few posters, why did he draw himself to the capital?
"Gong Yang, read these magazines."
After getting on the train, Gong Yang still hadn't recovered.
Xia Xiaolan put the magazine in front of him, and there were many designers' works in it.
Gong Yang thought that he and Xia Xiaolan were the only ones on this trip to the capital, and they would be in the same car for ten hours with the young and beautiful Xia Xiaolan. Gong Yang would definitely be at a loss. Later, he was not nervous when he found out that there was Xia Xiaolan's uncle. Liu Yong always dressed in ordinary clothes and borrowed books from the library of Shangdu University. Gong Yang and Liu Yong had dealt with each other twice.
After getting in the car, I found that the ordinary Liu Yong in my impression was dressed very formally.
A suit and tie with a briefcase, how much business is going to the capital to do!
What made Gong Yang even more incomprehensible was that after the train started, Xia Xiaolan took out a book from her bag and looked at it. He thought he was reading a home improvement magazine, but when he took a closer look, it turned out to be a high school chemistry book¡ª¡ªGong Yang was full of question marks, why do self-employed people read high school chemistry!
