Chapter Summary
“The most special thing about this piece of lace is not its origin or maker, but that it is from the same batch of lace used by Louis XIV and the queen, which is very meaningful. Gu Yuzhu noticed Gu Weimian's gaze, raised her eyebrows and smiled, then picked up the lace on the table: "This small piece is more than the money I have saved for my entire life." Gu Weimian's brows furrowed slightly. She had just sat down to eat when she heard the voice of housekeeper Lin from the other end of the roo...
It was not until dinner time that Gu Weimian came down from upstairs.
These books do not mention how to go back.
It only mentions the sacrifices to welcome the returning souls of the dead.
Although Buddhism has many rituals for sending the dead to the afterlife, it does not mention whether any of them are suitable for this sacrificial ceremony.
This time, Huo Yan was not seen in the restaurant.
Gu Weiman breathed a sigh of relief, while from the other side of the living room came the voice of Gu Yuzhu's smiling voice.
“Well, this is really pretty.”
“This one’s not bad either.”
Gu Weimian looked towards the living room.
Gu Yuzhu sat in the middle of the sofa, surrounded by a group of people, each holding a notebook in their hands.
Everyone smiled and helped Gu Yuzhu turn the pages:
"Take a look at this. This veil was made by the legendary artist Charles himself, and it's made of top-quality yarn."
"Or maybe one made of lace like this would be nice too."
When Gu Yuzhu saw the lace, her eyes paused, "a. Alencon lace; Point d'Alencon?"
The maid nodded immediately after hearing this.
"Miss Gu has a keen eye. This is Alençon lace; Point d'Alençon, the queen of lace. It was first created in the French town of Alençon during the reign of Louis XIV."
She smiled slightly.
“The most special thing about this piece of lace is not its origin or maker, but that it is from the same batch of lace used by Louis XIV and the queen, which is very meaningful.
There are generally only a few types of lace that ordinary people can access.
Made of chemical fiber materials, or natural materials such as cotton and silk, but the workmanship is not as exquisite.
The more high-end one is the top lace.
The pattern is delicate, thin and skin-friendly, and it is like a work of art.
The most expensive one is pure handmade lace.
How expensive is it?
Generally, big-name brands do not use handmade lace in their ready-to-wear clothes, but only use it when they are customized.
But there is another kind of lace that is even more expensive than this pure handmade lace.
That's antique lace.
A true work of art.
Gu Yuzhu looked at the lace in the picture in front of her, her eyes sparkling.
Which girl hasn't dreamed of being a princess?
Which girl doesn't want to own such top-notch and expensive clothing?
Seeing this, the maid beside her rushed to the side hall to look for the real thing.
She placed a whole piece of lace cloth in front of Gu Yuzhu.
Each pattern on it is so delicate that it seems
Gu Yuzhu raised her hand and caressed every pattern on the cloth with an obsessed look, "So beautiful."
The maid whispered the origin of the lace cloth.
"When Christie's auctioned this piece of lace, the bid was as high as 6 million."
Gu Yuzhu's eyes flickered slightly, "This is it, the veil and wedding dress, use this."
The people nearby heard this and nodded repeatedly.
Gu Yuzhu noticed Gu Weimian's gaze, raised her eyebrows and smiled, then picked up the lace on the table: "This small piece is more than the money I have saved for my entire life."
Gu Weimian's brows furrowed slightly.
She said nothing, withdrew her gaze, turned around and went to the restaurant.
Some of Gu Yuzhu's actions have already made her lose her appetite.
She had just sat down to eat when she heard the voice of housekeeper Lin from the other end of the room: "Let's forget about the lace one."
The noisy sound suddenly disappeared.
Gu Weimian frowned.
A few seconds.
Butler Lin's voice came faintly: "Miss Gu didn't like lace before, did she?"
