Chapter 367: Chapter 370 Fierce Duo’er_1
"Please come this way," said the owner.
The owner personally led the customers to the fitting room, which was quite simple, with cloth curtains separating the spaces.
Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong each entered a fitting room, and when Qiao Duo’er came out, both Daniu and Yang Ruoruo let out an exclamation.
At that moment, the only word in their minds was beautiful; she was stunning like a celestial being!
"Sister Duo’er, if I were a man, I would definitely marry you!"
Hearing Daniu’s exclamation, Tan Zhenghong also looked their way.
In that instant, his eyes saw only Qiao Duo’er, and everything else was irrelevant to him.
Qiao Duo’er walked up to Tan Zhenghong. "Quick, tell me if I look good."
Tan Zhenghong hurriedly nodded. "My wife always looks the prettiest!"
"Brother Zheng Hong, Ruo Ruo and I are still here," Daniu pointed out, clearing her throat. Actually, they were all close, so it wasn’t a big deal if they saw each other.
But the issue was the owner standing right there, his face turning red with embarrassment at his age. It was so rare.
Tan Zhenghong said indifferently, "I didn’t say anything untrue."
Daniu shut up. Duo’er was indeed beautiful, and Tan Zhenghong, dressed in red, looked magnificent. It was clear to anyone with eyes that they were a match made in heaven.
But could they please not show off their love?
It made her feel so itchy inside, as if she couldn’t wait to get married herself.
The owner politely said, "If there are places that don’t fit, the Embroidery Lady can alter it. It will only take about three to five days, which shouldn’t delay the wedding of the two."
Tan Zhenghong’s outfit fit perfectly, while Qiao Duo’er’s waist was a bit loose. However, any alterations might affect the peony pattern on the back.
The owner was also in a difficult position, worrying that it might not be easy to alter.
Concerned, Tan Zhenghong asked, "Owner, is there any other solution?"
His wife looked like a flower fairy in that outfit; if they couldn’t buy it, she would be very disappointed.
"Seeing that you both really like it, I’ll go ask the Embroidery Lady how long it would take to make a new one."
Before long, the owner had the answer and happily announced, "Our Embroidery Lady happens to be working on peony patterns, and we can have a finished garment in seven days. If time allows, we can tailor it specifically for you."
With nine days until the wedding, there was enough time, so Tan Zhenghong took charge and agreed.
After paying a deposit of Two Taels of Silver, the Embroidery Lady took their measurements.
Ji Xiangju’s service was excellent; once the wedding outfit was ready, the Embroidery Lady would personally deliver it, making it easier to handle any last-minute alterations.
After buying the wedding outfit, Daniu and Yang Ruoruo decided not to follow Tan Zhenghong and Qiao Duo’er any longer, heading to Feng Clan’s Carpentry Shop instead.
Seeing the two of them so affectionate, they were beyond envious and didn’t want to torture themselves anymore.
Of course, they also wanted to give the couple some space.
Tan Zhenghong and Qiao Duo’er walked hand in hand to the jewelry shop.
Qiao Duo’er planned to buy a set of silver jewelry as a token, since she hardly wore gold and silver jewelry and importantly, she didn’t like them.
But Tan Zhenghong wouldn’t have it, thinking Qiao Duo’er was hesitant to spend the money, so he pulled her aside.
He whispered in Qiao Duo’er’s ear, "Wife, I hunted a black bear last night that I can sell for more than two hundred taels of silver. I’ll give it all to you for your dowry, buy whatever you like."
However, the black bear was too conspicuous, so he planned to bring it to town with Sun Erhu during the less crowded noontime.
"When did you go?" Qiao Duo’er asked fiercely.
When Tan Zhenghong left last night, he hadn’t mentioned it, so he must have gone up the mountain to hunt the bear at night.
