“I did also hear about Lady Jin’s reputation of being like a fairy when dancing, thus I had the inspiration to make this outfit. Since there are also other Ladies here, why don’t Lady try the outfit on?” Mu Yunyao suggested with a small smile.
“Good idea! Lady Jin, please allow us to have a look!”
Lady Jin had long been looking forward to trying on the dress. Now, together with the excitement in everyone’s eyes, and the fact that it would be a little bad to reject their request, she stood up. “Then, I’ll try it on. Yunyao, do you have a changing room somewhere?”
“It has naturally been readied. Lady, please follow me.” Mu Yunyao got up and politely apologised to the rest of the Ladies. “Please excuse Yunyao, I must ask Lady to wait for a while.”
“There is no need to be so polite, hurry on and help Lady Jin into the clothes. We can’t wait to admire her in her dress.”
Mu Yunyao led Lady Jin upstairs and into a premium room.
“Yunyao, your taste is so exquisite, I even want to renovate my bedroom into something like this.” The floor was covered with a white cashmere carpet. There was a screen, a soft couch, vases, and other delicate decorations. At the centre was a huge bronze mirror that could reflect a person’s entire body. Beside the mirror was a vanity table with a full set of makeup.
“Time was precious so I was only able to do a little bit of decorations. I have let Lady see something ridiculous.”
Mu Yunyao did not ask other people to help. Instead, she personally assisted Lady Jin to put on the clothing.
Lady Jin was slender, but the clothing was still tight at the waist. Lady Jin took in a breath and said, “This dress is honestly too tight at the waist, just a little bit more loose by a cun would be good.”
(T/N: ‘Cun’ is a Chinese measurement. It is equivalent 3.333… =3 1/3 cm.)
Mu Yunyao did not say anything. Instead, she lead Lady Jin to the front of the vanity table. When they passed by the bronze mirror, Mu Yunyao purposely blocked the mirror from Lady Jin’s sight. “Please allow me to do your hair and accessories before you look into the mirror. I want to make it a surprise.”
“Alright, I want to see whether your skills have improved.”
Mu Yunyao took out a small mahogany box and pulled out the first drawer. She took out an accessory that looked exactly the same as in the booklet. She gently loosened Lady Jin’s hair and did a fairy bun in a very short span of time. Then, she carefully slotted the golden buyao into the hair. Afterwards, she gently drew on Lady Jin’s eyebrows.
“Lady, you can take a look now.”
Lady Jin had long become impatient. When she heard Mu Yunyao’s words, she immediately went to stand before the mirror. “This……this is me?”
“Naturally, that is Lady.”
“This……this change is way too much.” Lady Jin, who had always been very composed, was currently blushing. Her eyes had hints of joy and happiness and she found herself unable to stop admiring herself in the mirror. “Yunyao, no matter how much this dress is, I want to buy it.”
Just then, Yin Hong knocked on the door. “Lady, Lady Zhao and the rest are urging you to come out soon. They wanted to know if you are done?”
Mu Yunyao replied, “Lady is ready. She will be coming out now.”
Lady Zhao and the other two Ladies were drinking their fruit tea. There were also some rose petals in the tea which floated beautifully on the tea. They were currently discussing that when they return to their residences, they would also make their tea like this too. That was when they heard the sound of footsteps nearing them. They quickly looked up.
The dress from “Dancing under the Moon” was not the most expensive nor the grandest, yet, it was the most heavenly of all the dresses. White silk was used as the base and there was not much complicated decorations on it. There were only light golden flowers embroidered out on the skirt. A thin moon coloured gauze was connected at the waist and surrounded the skirt. Together, the dress seemed to make the wearer seem like she was floating, as if she was under the moonlight.
