NOVEL NEXT Chapter 44
Chapter 44: Black stockings with high heels are the ultimate combo! Sister Zi: Bring him to my room!
Jing Ni went out with a basket to buy groceries.
Since it was still some time before the storytelling session, Li Mo didn’t rush out.
Jing Ni’s stockings, washed and hung up to dry, fluttered on the clothesline in the yard.
Li Mo sat in the yard, busy preparing.
One pair was not enough, he needed to prepare more pairs for his wife.
More colors need to be added. Today, I will go and find Nongyu to get some other colors of gauze! Although my own ideas are fine, the stockings have indeed been made.
But the only downside is that something is still missing. I made long stockings, and if I could add some lace trim or something, it would be even more perfect!
But this involves the skills of embroidery.
A blind man who can do a bit of needlework is already good enough, how would he know anything about embroidery!
At most, he can do some mending.
As for Jing Ni, her small hands are so accurate when holding a sword, but asking her to embroider… even embroidery needles can be broken by her!
And, just having stockings is not enough. When a woman puts on stockings, it adds ten points. But if paired with high heels, it can add thirty points!
Black stockings with high heels are the ultimate man-slaying weapon!
After making several pairs of black stockings, Li Mo leaned back on the rocking chair in the yard, contemplating how to make high heels.
In order to make them, he first needs to analyze the structure of the shoes. Shoe surface, shoe sole, shoe heel. Li Mo thought for a moment, it doesn’t seem too difficult!
The key is the material of the shoe heel, it can’t be too heavy or too fragile. The heel of the high-heeled shoe bears the weight of the whole person, too heavy is not good for walking, too fragile is easy to break.
The shoe surface is simple, it can be wrapped in gauze on animal skin. Strong and convenient, the key is to be able to show the toes and the top of the foot.
Having jade feet in black stockings is definitely a bonus!
Suddenly, Li Mo had a flash of inspiration. The shoe surface can be wrapped in animal skin, so why can’t the shoe heel be supported by wooden material embedded with metal?
This way it would be lightweight and sturdy!
Damn, I really am a genius!
He acted without hesitation.
Li Mo took a brush and silk cloth and began to sketch the outline based on his memory. After drawing out some details and structures, he brought tools to start making them.
Finally, when Jing Ni came back with groceries, Li Mo had made the high heels! The sole of the shoe is wooden, shaped like a spoon. This provides curvature. The heel is nailed in with long nails, connecting the sole and the heel while also solving the problem of the heel!
The shoe surface, as he thought, a few straps wrapped in animal skin are simple yet practical!
“Husband, what are you doing again?”
Jing Ni came back after buying groceries, put the basket of vegetables by the well, drew a bucket of clear well water to wash the vegetables and cook. Li Mo held the newly made high heels and turned to her with a faint smile.
“Honey, I have invented a secret weapon again, would you like to try it?”
Jing Ni was pulled back into the house by him. After a series of surprised praises, the birds in the tree flapped their wings and flew away. Are this couple ever going to stop? Again?
“Honey, rest well, I’ll bring you a midnight snack when I return.”
Li Mo prepared a little something to eat on the table for Jing Ni, and also filled a pot of tea on the side. Everything else can be overlooked, but ensuring the lady is well-hydrated is a must.
Jing Ni only showed a head outside the blanket, helplessly rolled her eyes at Li Mo.
The matter of taking in a concubine can’t be delayed any longer!
Two days later, Li Mo arrived at Purple Orchid Pavilion with the few things he had redone.
He knew in his heart that this would be a major breakthrough in changing female charm!
The backyard of Purple Orchid Pavilion has never had outsiders. This is where the girls usually live, so they won’t let just anyone in.
An independent courtyard is situated in the innermost part. The courtyard is shaded by trees, with beautiful flowers and plants. There are small flowing bridges, rockeries, and pavilions aplenty. Compared to other courtyards, the environment here is more than a bit better.
The place where the landlady lives naturally has the best environment!
“Sister Zi, Mr. Li said he wants to see you.”
Nongyu lightly knocked on the door and spoke from outside. Zi, these few days, has been wondering what method Li Mo has to surprise her. She really can’t understand what role a layer of gauze can play.
It has been scratching her heart for the past two days like a cat. When she heard Nongyu’s voice outside the door, Zi’s eyes lit up instantly.
Finally, he’s here!
The door opened, and a graceful figure appeared behind it. Zi’s face brightened with anticipation: “Lead Mr. Li back to the previous private room to wait for me, I’ll change into a skirt and be right there.”
“Yes.”
Nongyu bowed, ready to leave, but was called back by Zi.
“Wait.”
Nongyu stopped and asked, “What’s wrong, Sister Zi?”
Sister Zi thought for a moment and said, “Bring sir directly to my room, don’t go to the private room.”
“Ah? Come to your room?”
Nongyu was surprised and incredulous. It was unheard of for a man to enter the Sister Zi’s house, let alone her room.
Nongyu was baffled. Sister Zi’s behavior had changed.
