Chapter 660: She’s So Beautiful Now
Chapter 660: She’s So Beautiful Now
This is how they cheerfully arrived at the Song Family Mansion.
The mansion had a servant there waiting early.
The servant said, "Master Ji is already here, measuring the old lady!"
Shi Nuan thought, this Ji gentleman is probably the tailor making the cheongsams.
Song Yansheng led Shi Nuan into the house. Shi Nuan was a little anxious because she couldn’t imagine how she would look in a cheongsam.
No matter that Song Yansheng said her figure actually... had some curves.
Curved or not, never mind for now, but that kind of outfit is too feminine, and she felt she probably couldn’t hold down that aura.
Soon, the two entered the door, indeed seeing a woman about fifty or so measuring Yu Yao.
The two were chatting while taking measurements, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Besides the two of them, there was one more person in the living room. Even if they hadn’t met often, Shi Nuan recognized her.
That was Aunt Tong, whom Song Yansheng had previously dismissed.
Song Yansheng saw Aunt Tong and slightly furrowed his brow. Aunt Tong immediately lowered her head and stood there without speaking.
Yu Yao smiled and came over to greet them, introducing Master Ji to Shi Nuan.
Actually, Master Ji was just a respectful title. Her real name was Ji Yunjin.
Shi Nuan thought this name was beautiful, and linking it to her craft of making cheongsams made it even more beautiful.
Ji Yunjin said, "Don’t call me Master Ji, just call me Aunt Ji. I’ve known your mother-in-law, A Yao, for nearly twenty years, and we have a deep friendship!"
Shi Nuan nodded with a smile.
Everyone sat down. Aunt Tong busied herself with serving tea, then was sent to the kitchen by Yu Yao to handle lunch arrangements.
The rest of them sat and chatted, and while Shi Nuan didn’t talk much, it was clear Ji Yunjin was indeed very familiar with Yu Yao. She wore a light purple cheongsam, looking elegant and dignified, with a very good temperament.
Yu Yao asked Ji Yunjin to take Shi Nuan’s measurements to make two outfits for her.
Ji Yunjin was naturally happy and said she had brought a few samples this time, insisting that Shi Nuan try them first.
Shi Nuan couldn’t resist Ji Yunjin’s enthusiasm and was pulled upstairs by her.
After the two left, Yu Yao explained the matter of Aunt Tong to her son.
Yu Yao said, "It was your Aunt Ji who asked her to come back, and of course, she called me beforehand. Aunt Tong, after all, is an elder who has cared for me for many years. Changing someone else, I’m not really comfortable. I’ve already told her that she will absolutely never do similar things again, so I thought, let her come back for now. To err is human, you know?"
Song Yansheng’s thin lips moved slightly, and he said, "Mom, I dismissed Aunt Tong not just because of Nuannuan, but also because she exploited your kindness... But you’re right: she’s worked in our family for many years, and I can’t be too heartless. She can stay for now, but if it happens again, I hope you won’t intervene again!"
Song Yansheng’s concession made Yu Yao very satisfied. She nodded, "Naturally, you can rest assured with your mother here. You can see how I treat Nuannuan. I’ve already accepted Nuannuan, what else can Aunt Tong do?"
Song Yansheng nodded slightly, saying no more.
For the first time in many years, his mother asked him to keep someone. Even if he was unwilling, he couldn’t speak against it.
As the two were speaking, they suddenly heard applause, followed by Ji Yunjin’s voice. She said, "A Yu, come see your wife, see how beautiful she’s become..."
