[Sherlock Holmes] Captured a detective
Chapter 18
Chapter 18
Infected by this atmosphere, the two men also reveled in "self-defeating". They not only drank the whole bottle of wine prepared by Jenny, but Sherlock also took out the port wine given by a guest some time ago.Jenny and Fantine had put Cosette under the covers, and they were still drinking.
The result of overeating and drinking: Sherlock and John decide to go for a walk side by side.
"Here, at this time, go for a walk?" Jenny watched in surprise as the two big boys put on their coats, scarves, hats and gloves, all ready.
"Yes." John amplified his voice uncontrollably, "Thanks to Thanksgiving, thanks to Mrs. Hudson, for giving us a wonderful meal... We are so stuffed, we have to digest it."
"I have to go and see Watson." Sherlock seemed calm, but he grabbed Jenny's shoulders, leaned down and kissed her face, and said loudly, "Let's go!"
The corner of Jenny's mouth twitched as she looked at the open door, and John had already started singing.Now she regrets that she doesn't have a camera to take pictures of what happened just now. What a black historical evidence that is~ She'd better cook ginger soup.
Jenny didn't know when Sherlock and John came back, but when she came downstairs the next morning, she found coats, scarves, gloves, shoes, shirts... from the first floor to the second floor... There are mud spots all over it... Should they be glad that they still remember that they live on the second floor?
"They came back at about three o'clock...and that's how it was when I got up in the morning." Fantine said in a dazed way, and the two ladies looked at each other.
"Take it for laundry, and brush your shoes too... Uh, just clean it and put it quietly at the door on the second floor." Jenny thought for a while, and let the men off.
"Okay, Mrs. Hudson." Fantine, who had never encountered such a situation, was actually relieved.
Jenny began to assign Fantine's tasks for the day, "Later you will buy bread, besides white bread, buy some croissants and milk bread. Then go to the market to buy some eggs, and buy twenty candles, the best Kind of. Oh, I don't think they're going to be up for dinner this morning. You remember to make some sandwiches with the leftover turkey from yesterday. If Dr. Watson has to go to work, remember to ask him to bring it. Today Eat the leftovers, and help me bring the sandwiches upstairs at noon. Ah, I almost forgot, you go and cook some ginger soup first, and when they get up, send a bowl to each of them, remember, watch them finish drinking."
Fantine knew whom Jenny was referring to, and she nodded, suppressing a smile, and said, "Yes, ma'am."
Jenny thought for a while, and then said, "Forget it, let me cook it. I just made some tea by the way. You can send me a pot to the third floor around 10 o'clock. You go to buy bread first."
Fantine: "Yes, ma'am."
While cooking ginger soup and flowers, Jenny simply fried a bread egg with the leftover bread from yesterday. In fact, she didn't really want to eat, but today's workload is heavy.
After eating quickly, Jenny climbed up to the third floor with a large pot of flowers, and after preparing everything, she started working.
The dress had been urgently delivered by Tom two days before, as the last work before Christmas.It is also interesting to say that the material of this skirt was imported from the far east and was very expensive.It is said that something happened to the ship that transported this batch of materials. When they were sent to England, there were only materials left to make two skirts, and these two pieces of materials were unknowingly picked up by two ladies who regarded each other as competitors. After buying it, it happened to be made into the same style in the hands of different tailors.
These two ladies are not only noble, but also very rich. After they knew that they had made skirts of the same style with the same material as their counterparts, they were very angry. They were so competitive that they were unwilling to re-purchase new skirts. , but invariably chose to modify the skirt.Not only the style cannot be changed, but also more innovative than the other party.In other words, there are more gemstones to be embellished, and more lace to be inlaid...
One of the ladies had a French tailor altered, while the other was sent to Jenny.
As far as Jenny is concerned, these two ladies are so boring that they have no friends. They spent so much money and time to make two identical skirts, and now they have to change them into different styles.If it hadn't been for Tom's inability to say no, she would have never wanted the job, as far as she was concerned.Now there are only more than 20 days before Christmas, and she must complete the work within ten days, and then give the skirt to Tom for final decoration, and then let the other party try it on, and adjust it after the try... Hurry up!
However, the other party is very generous. If the order is successfully completed, Jenny will be able to go to the country for vacation next summer instead of working.
With this beautiful goal in mind, Jenny began to work hard.It took her an hour to get all the threads ready, and then she started flying the stitches.She works more than ten hours a day, sleeps only four or five hours, and spends at least one pound on candles every night. In order not to affect her eyesight, Jenny needs to spend a lot of candles every night.There were several times when Jenny fell asleep in the bathtub, but fortunately Fantine stayed by the door and woke her up in time, otherwise if she caught a cold at this time, the job would have been ruined.
Ten days later, when Jenny came downstairs again, John was surprised to see her, because now Jenny had not only lost a lot of weight, but also had a haggard face, with two big dark circles on her face, and her lips were also swollen. Glowing gray.
"Mrs. Hudson, you need to take a good rest for a while, otherwise your health will be greatly affected." John said after seeing Jenny.
"I think so too." Jenny dozed off tiredly. Beside her was a huge box, which contained her painstaking efforts over the past ten days. If she hadn't insisted on embroidering at home, she and Tom It should have been door-to-door service.
"After this time, I will sleep well for three days, and then don't call me any of you." Jenny's voice was full of exhaustion.
"Here comes the carriage, Mrs. Hudson," cried Fantine, running in.
With the help of Fantine, Jenny stuffed herself and the box into the carriage, and Fantine sat up, and she will follow Jenny to Tom's place.
When the skirt was placed on the formwork in Tom's shop, even Tom, who was used to seeing high-end goods, couldn't help being dumbfounded, and Ellie who was standing beside him immediately covered her mouth and cried, "Oh my God, my God." where".
The original color of this skirt was green, which was very summery, so Jenny simply embroidered it into a garden.She abandoned the mainstream British country small floral style, and embroidered flowers with large petals.White epiphyllum, red lotus, blue water lily, golden dahlia, yellow lily... They are passionate, noble and generous.
Jenny also used a special stitch method. If you look at these flowers from the front, they are all bright colors, but if you look at them from another angle, the white becomes silver, the bright red becomes rice red, and the dark blue becomes light blue. , gold turned bright yellow, yellow turned apricot...
"I, I, I, I really can't describe my mood now, Mrs. Hudson, you are a genius, Mrs. Hudson, you have a pair of hands of God." Tom said incoherently.
"Okay, I think we'd better hurry up and get to work." Although Jenny was proud, she didn't want to waste any time.
Not only Tom and Jenny, but Allie also came to help.They piled up a garden with silk and lace, and decorated the flowers with various precious stones. Small topaz was made into pistils, green and blue gems were made into lotus seeds, and round pearls were embroidered on the leaves. It's like little dewdrops... Finally, a transparent veil was carefully sewn on the outermost side, making the whole "garden" seem to be shrouded in the mist of summer morning.
At winter's hottest balls, a gown that's as fresh as summer is sure to catch everyone's eyes.
When discussing the style, Jenny has seen this lady. She is tall and tall, with a gentle complexion and a resolute personality, so she can control such a pattern.
With the final job done, both Tom and Jenny couldn't be happier with their workmanship.It only needs to be done after Tom sends it to the picky lady for a try on tomorrow, and then conducts a final adjustment.Tom and Jenny made many kinds of decorations with lace and satin. If the customer is not satisfied with the current pattern, Tom can immediately remove the existing ones and start sewing again.
This dress will shine at the ball, and then it will be hung in the dressing room. Maybe it will be taken out next year, and it will appear again after modification. Maybe it will not be worn out again, and it will only be used as a dress in the heart of the hostess. A proud commemoration.
What happened after that had nothing to do with Jenny. She went home and slept hard for a few days, and almost missed Christmas. When she appeared at the dinner table again, there were still three days before Christmas.
Infected by this atmosphere, the two men also reveled in "self-defeating". They not only drank the whole bottle of wine prepared by Jenny, but Sherlock also took out the port wine given by a guest some time ago.Jenny and Fantine had put Cosette under the covers, and they were still drinking.
