Chapter 1572

Since Hou Guangbi and the others had come, they could only stay at the County Committee Guest House. Before the Hou family's hotel was finished, the County Committee Guest House was the hotel with the best conditions in Changshan County.

Su Xinghui arranged for them to stay at the County Committee Guest House. Originally, he wanted to let Matilda rest for a night before measuring Lu Xiaoya's figure, but Matilda was a very dedicated person. As soon as she settled down, she said she wanted to see the wedding dress designed by Su Xinghui.

Matilda was indeed very curious. She never expected that in distant China, there would be someone who could design wedding dresses, because wedding dresses were not China's traditional clothing, but Western traditional clothing, just like she couldn't design a cheongsam or Hanfu either.

When she heard that in China, an ordinary person who was not a fashion designer had designed a wedding dress, she couldn't suppress her curiosity. She wanted to see Su Xinghui's design drawing and rendering right now.

Su Xinghui could only return to his home and bring over that design drawing and that rendering together.

As soon as Matilda saw the design drawing and rendering drawn by Su Xinghui, she looked at them with fascination. After a long time, she nodded and said, "I didn't expect that in China, there would also be an artist who can deeply understand our Western wedding dress culture. This wedding dress of yours is designed very well. It has both traditional things and your own new understanding. It is very fashionable, and the bride is also very beautiful. Wearing this wedding dress will definitely be extremely beautiful. If you went to our Paris, you would definitely be an outstanding fashion designer."

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Miss Matilda, you are overpraising. This is perhaps because I know my wife too well, so I can design a wedding dress that fits her figure and temperament highly. If I were to design clothing for others, I wouldn't have this confidence."

Su Xinghui's words were not empty talk. He was indeed too familiar with Lu Xiaoya. He didn't know how many times he had drawn Lu Xiaoya. It was not a difficult task for him to design a set of clothing for Lu Xiaoya that perfectly suited her figure and temperament.

But to design clothing for others, especially strangers, just understanding this person would take him a long time. He didn't have the patience to do this kind of thing. He still had too many other things to do now.

Matilda looked at Lu Xiaoya and nodded, saying, "You are very right. This wedding dress is indeed very suitable for this beautiful young lady. Only she can wear out the charm of this wedding dress. How about this, I will measure this young lady's figure now, and then start making this wedding dress. I think it should take about two weeks for this wedding dress to be finished."

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Thank you, Miss Matilda. Then I would like to ask, how much will it cost for you to make this wedding dress?"

Matilda looked at Hou Rulan and held up five fingers, saying, "I need five hundred dollars."

Five hundred dollars was equivalent to more than four thousand RMB. For domestic wedding dress shops, this price was considered an astronomical figure. But for Matilda, this price was basically equivalent to giving it away for free. This money wasn't even enough to pay for the travel expenses of her and her assistant, let alone that she also brought the best wedding dress fabric from France.

Of course, Su Xinghui wouldn't expose it. He knew that the remaining expenses were paid by the Hou family.

If he insisted on paying the full cost and having Matilda make a wedding dress worth ten thousand dollars, he could afford it, but then such an expensive wedding dress would again make some people gossip.

For cadres, luxury is also a sin.

A five-hundred-dollar wedding dress is already considered a high price now, so let's pay at this price.

Su Xinghui said, "Alright, Miss Matilda, after you finish making it, I will pay you."

Matilda then had her assistant and her go into the room to measure Lu Xiaoya's figure. She measured the figure very carefully. After about ten minutes, the few of them came out together.

Matilda said with satisfaction, "This young lady is simply too beautiful. Mr. Su, don't worry, I will definitely carefully make this wedding dress, so that your wife will be as charming as a princess at the wedding!"

Su Xinghui said happily, "Alright, thank you, Miss Matilda. If you make it well, I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life!"
