Chapter 968 The Decline of the Blood Tribe 3
Versace? !
I almost spit out my mouthful of oatmeal, and I want to laugh when I hear the name.
To be honest, it was the little girl outside who wanted to see him, and she had no feelings for luxury brands.
Xining finally endured it, swallowed the oats in his mouth, picked up the handkerchief next to him and wiped his mouth: "Who is he, and why should I find him?"
"Didn't you see that person this morning?" The Baroness also looked extremely nervous.
"I saw it, it's really ugly." Xining held the spoon in his hand and turned it around in the bowl.
ugly? The Baroness looked at her with suspicion. Her daughter must not have a problem with her aesthetics: "What kind of man is considered handsome?"
Xi Ning raised his chin towards the body owner's biological father: "Dad, you are tall and strong. Now you are a little fatter, but you are still handsome. It is said that you were very handsome when you were young."
A good girl, with discernment! The Baron's spine straightened up, his eyes brightened a little, and he seemed several years younger.
This rainbow flattery was so bright and fragrant that the Baroness couldn't help but admire it. Here’s another one to follow: “Indeed, whenever there is a party, he is always the most conspicuous. When someone came to talk to me, I immediately agreed, and I was so happy that I couldn’t sleep at night.”
"Ahem~" The baron was in a happy mood and pretended: "Well, it's time to collect the rent of a family in the town, and it's been delayed for more than a month. It happens that old John is going to go, so go with him, don't forget to wear a Necklace.”
"Oh." Xining continued to eat breakfast calmly.
The owner, Ellafi, is the youngest daughter of Baron and Mrs. Williams. She has seven older brothers and sisters, but in this era of relatively high child mortality, only four survived. The two elder sisters are all married, far away from home, in the city. One of the two brothers is still studying in a school in the city, and the other is starting a business outside. He did not come back until his father died to inherit the family business.
As the youngest and middle-aged daughter, the Baron and his wife naturally doted on her more.
Vivian was very happy when she learned that she was going to the town. There is only one town and one manor within a hundred miles of here. The famous hunter must go to the town.
Take out the necklace from the dressing box. The pendant is a rose. Every descendant of the family has such a necklace, and when they reach the age of ten, they will find a jeweler to make one. The original is in the hands of Baron Williams and will be given to his heirs after his death. When a girl gets married, this is her dowry, and there is only one dowry. This is equivalent to a family symbol.
Old John was an old man in the family, and his family had been working in the village for several generations. He took his young son, Little John, to sit in front of the carriage and drive.
Xi Ning took the maid into the carriage. Little John couldn't help but look at her a few more times. He dared to covet the lady, so Old John slapped her on the head.
"I'm looking at Vivian." Little John mumbled softly as he touched the head where he was hit.
"It's good to know!" Old John warned with his eyes widened: "Stand far away from now on, and be careful, or I will dig out your eyeballs."
The four horses trotted slowly along the twenty-kilometer road, and it took more than an hour to arrive.
The town is not big, with a circular flower bed in the middle and a marble statue of the Virgin in the center. The entire town has an open layout around this statue, with only about fifty households.
The circle around the center is the best location, which is the golden business circle. This circle is either a church or a shop. The houses are dark and have a bit of history. From here you can see the surrounding distant mountains, which are covered with snow. It is this circle of high mountains that isolates this place from the world. If you want to get out, even if you have a horse, it will take two or three days. On the high mountain to the west, a castle can be seen in the distance. The spire is tall and majestic, and it is also completely black, making it feel a bit eerie. That is Dracula's Castle, which has a history of more than 400 years.
The carriage stopped in front of a two-story tavern. Old John took his son in to collect rent, while Vivian followed her to the sewing shop next to it.
The sewing shop not only sells needlework but is also a tailor shop. The residents here have a low living standard and do not dress well unless necessary.
A freshly made suit hangs on the shelf on the left side of the tailor shop, and a mannequin made of wood and covered with cotton is placed on the right side, with a half-finished wedding dress on it. The old tailor was wearing reading glasses with spectacle lenses, holding a brooch with his withered hands and playing with it on the model.
On the cabinet next to it, neatly folded funeral clothes were placed.
The tailor's daughter-in-law came up to greet her. When she saw the pendant hanging on her chest, she immediately said: "It turns out she is the young lady of Baron Williams's family. She has just arrived new fabrics, which are the latest and most fashionable in the palace. How about that?" Take a look?”
The body owner has only been to town a few times in his life, and the last time was three years ago. This shows his identity and proves that the pendant is recognized by everyone here.
Taking out the fabric and looking at it, Xining couldn't help but laugh: "Is this the most popular and latest? Yes, it was from a year and a half ago."
The tailor's wife was also sharp-tongued, and when she saw that she couldn't be coaxed, she immediately came out with a good defense: "She is a young lady from the Baron family, and her knowledge is extraordinary. I heard that the eldest and second young masters are both college students in the city. The eldest lady The second lady and I are both married to nobles in the city, so we naturally see a lot of good things. We live in a remote and remote area, and these materials are already in the city. If the young lady doesn’t mind, how about I sell them to you at a discount?”

It felt comfortable to hear that, and the pocket money given by the Baron's biological parents was enough, which he didn't usually have the chance to use. He thought that the owner of the body would be brought to the city soon to attend a dance party and prepare to choose a husband. He could do it again in the city, but Always have a set.
After counting the time, looking at the environment and the people in power in my memory, I should be in Europe in the late sixteenth century.
The costumes of this period were not as exaggerated as they were in the 17th century. Tights that could tighten the waist to 40 centimeters had just begun to take shape, and princes wore huge and somewhat funny clown collars. Fortunately, in this era, she didn't have to wear tight clothes that could strangle people. As a low-level noble like a baron, she didn't have to wear Kraft or Elizabethan collars that reached up to her chin and covered her entire neck.
Today's skirts are still mostly white or linen, with embroidery. So the Baroness chose a mediocre but still quite luxurious-looking dark red fabric with a black dahlia pattern. She also chose an apple-green fabric for herself to make a long coat, and put a row of long short laces on the skirt, so that It goes with any skirt, just throw it on and go out to parties.
The price is quite cheap, after all, not many people are willing to spend money to make clothes.
After Xining paid, it was agreed that her dress would be picked up in three days, while the Baroness's could be picked up later. In this way, even if she dies, she can at least die wearing new clothes and be buried beautifully after her death.
Mo Ming: "I want to be stinky and beautiful."
Yes, it means being stinky. The world is so beautiful, she will look beautiful wherever she goes.
Vivian carefully wrapped the needle and thread she bought, put it in her purse, and followed her out of the tailor shop.
As soon as they left the store, they saw Versace from afar. Versace also saw them, so he pulled up the brim of his wide-brimmed hat and walked over.
