After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

Needlework is inherently more demanding on the eyes.

In addition, ancient candlelight was not very bright, so Su Xiaoxi's eyes became tired after working for a while.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at Cheng Shubai who was reading at night.

In the yellowish candlelight, Cheng Shubai's face was illuminated even more toughly and handsomely. Su Xiaoxi suddenly remembered a poem she learned in junior high school, "Why should we cut the candles from the Western Window together?"

However, she was luckier than Li Shangyin, at least Cheng Shubai was by her side at this time.

She was still a little tired at first, but looking at Cheng Shubai's face, she seemed to be sober again.

She stretched and continued to work hard.

It was late at night, and everything around me seemed to be quiet, except for the chirping of cicadas from time to time.

Su Xiaoxi was very sleepy at this time, but fortunately she had finished the dress in her hand.

Looking at the clothes she had sewn by herself, Su Xiaoxi nodded with satisfaction and called Cheng Shubai softly: "Mr.

Cheng Shubai turned his head and asked patiently, "What's wrong?"

With a smile on her handsome face, Su Xiaoxi waved to Cheng Shubai: "Come here."

Cheng Shubai stood up and walked over without saying a word.

After Cheng Shubai stood still, Su Xiaoxi handed him the sewn clothes and said, "Try on this dress."

Because it was night and the candlelight was weak, Cheng Shubai couldn't see clearly what color it was. He obediently took off his outer clothes and put on new clothes sewn by Su Xiaoxi.

After fastening his clothes, he opened his hands, stood a little further away, and asked, "How is it?"

Su Xiaoxi nodded frequently: "Handsome and unrestrained, with a jade tree facing the wind!"

Cheng Shubai blushed when she praised her, but he enjoyed it in his heart. He liked that Su Xiaoxi praised him so straightforwardly.

"The saying that people rely on clothes still means that your clothes are well made." Cheng Shubai said with a smile.

Su Xiaoxi laughed at his praise and pouted: "It's a pity that these clothes are good, but it's night now and you can't see the color. This color is smoky purple that I dyed with grape skins, it's very flattering."

"When Mom came in to deliver the clothes today, I saw it. It was a beautiful color. I have rarely seen this kind of color before."

Su Xiaoxi understood that in the eyes of ancient people, purple was a symbol of nobility and power.The so-called purple energy coming from the east also has this part of the reason.Moreover, purple dye is very complex and difficult to obtain, so ordinary people generally cannot afford purple at home, and only those with power can afford to wear purple.

"You'll be able to see the effect when it's daytime. You're going to the academy the day after tomorrow. I'll make another one for you. You can change it and wash it every time. This is also convenient."

Cheng Shubai looked at the sky outside and said, "It's getting late. It's better not to do anything today and go to bed early."

He saw Su Xiaoxi yawning several times, and felt distressed in his heart.

"It's okay. If you're sleepy, go to bed early." Su Xiaoxi sat back at the dressing table.

Cheng Shubai was a little sleepy, but Su Xiaoxi was making clothes for him, so how could he bear to let her work alone while he slept.

So, he shook his head and said, "I'm not sleepy, I'll stay with you."

He looked persistent. Su Xiaoxi knew that it was difficult to change what he had decided, so she had no choice but to let him stay with her.

Cheng Shubai turned his back to Su Xiaoxi, yawned, returned to the desk again, and opened the book.
