?Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Bridal Dress Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Bridal Dress After the meal, Shan Zi led Chen Daya and Wu Xiaoqing to Lu Garden. Chu Hanyan took a nap, Chen Afu sat by the window, embroidering her wedding gown and Xia Yue was busy knitting socks as assistance.

Chen Afu had made four sets of wedding outfits. Most of the wedding dress to be worn during the ceremony was done, only some embroidery was left to do. The overcoat, red veil, and embroidered shoes were designed traditionally as was popular in that era. The red satin jacket with golden flower embroidery and the red satin floral pleated skirt were regular except for twelve pairs of oversized yuang yang disk buttons that were somewhat unique and overstated.

Chen Afu cut and sewed the clothes herself, but Wang helped with the embroidery, which was not yet finished. On the one hand, Chen Afu’s embroidery skills left much to be desired, and on the other hand, Mrs. Wang was passionate about embroidery and hoped for her daughter to be the most beautiful bride.

The red belly band had been made, which Mrs. Wang shyly withdrew from helping with. So Chen Afu cut, sewed, and embroidered it herself. She only embroidered a pair of lotus flowers on it, rather than a more practical pattern of mandarin ducks playing in water because it was too hard for her to embroider the ducks wearing floral dresses. And when compared to Mrs. Wang’s embroidery, she felt embarrassed by her own work. Still, she added a lace trim around the belly band as decoration rather than using a simple hem which was common at the time.

The underclothes designed like sleepwear, which were cut according to the sleepwear from her previous life, were made of scarlet soft satin tailored to her figure, only a few small flowers were embroidered on the collar and sleeve openings.

The other three wedding dresses for the bride are also being made. Some changes were made to the patterns to make them look trendy and stylish. The clothes were cut by her and then sewn and embroidered by the professional embroiderers in the Lu Garden, whom she paid.

She was currently embroidering small flowers on the collar of the sleepwear.
