Chapter 444: The Noblewomenâs Imagination
At the Wei family inn,
After Princess Pingyang took up residence, the entire inn was staffed by maidservants. The former waiters and managers temporarily stepped aside.
After all, Princess Pingyangâs status was noble, and having men around was inappropriate, especially since Fei Yueâer was about to display very private items.
âPrincess Consort of Qi, what secret things are you going to show us?â someone asked.
Pingyang had just finished washing and looked relaxed, having slept until the sun reached the treetopsâsuch was the comfort of the bed.
The noblewomen had gathered downstairs, just like Pingyang, all eyes fixed on Fei Yueâer, waiting for her to reveal her female products.
Fei Yueâer was a bit nervous but recalled Xiao Mingâs words. She took a deep breath and said, âAunt, what Iâm going to show you today is called underwear. Iâm sure everyone often wears bellybands and undergarments.â
Fei Yueâerâs words made many noblewomen blush. She had mentioned something very shameful; who normally spoke openly about intimate clothing?
âThese things are essential for us women,â Princess Pingyang said boldly, more frank than the others.
Partly it was Pingyangâs nature, partly she wanted to support Fei Yueâer.
Fei Yueâer had invited her by letter, which definitely wasnât just her ideaâXiao Ming was surely behind it.
Thus, Pingyang felt she should support Fei Yueâer and keep the atmosphere pleasant. It was a kind gesture.
Gratefully looking at Pingyang, Fei Yueâer feared these noblewomen might resent her since this topic was quite embarrassing.
Pingyangâs words calmed them. Recalling what they spoke last night, Fei Yueâer said loudly, âToday Iâll show you a kind of clothing that makes women more comfortable, fits closely, and also makes us more attractive.â
Afterward, she looked toward the stage and gently clapped her hands.
At her signal, thirty singing girls appeared on stage wearing underwear of different colors and styles.
At that moment, everyone, including Princess Pingyang, was stunned by the peculiar appearance of these singing girls.
âHeavens! What is this?â someone exclaimed.
âHehe, those in front really look like steamed buns,â someone teased.
âThis visit to Qingzhou really broadened my horizons. I didnât expect the Princess Consort of Qi to be so different, actually bringing out such female handiwork.â
ââ¦â
Princess Pingyang stared steadily at the girls modeling the intimate garments on stage. Suddenly she said, âDonât you think these girls look beautiful in those clothes?â
The noblewomen were initially shocked by the novelty but upon closer look found the singing girls had a certain charm.
One noblewoman said, âSince the princess said so, I think the clothes are really good. They look quite alluring on these girls.â
âPah! How can you say such vulgar things in front of the princess and the consort?â another noblewoman scolded, though she clearly agreed.
After all, their own clothes were more revealing than these.
Their words sparked laughter among the noblewomen, who pointed at the girls on stage, chatting and judging which clothes looked best.
Pingyang was used to such behavior. She said to Fei Yueâer, âPrincess Consort of Qi, tell us why you made these close-fitting garments.â
âSagging? What sagging?â Pingyang repeated, then realized and glared at Fei Yueâer. âGirl, everyone knows youâre talented, but how do you know this actually prevents that?â
Fei Yueâer said seriously, âAunt, this is not nonsense but based on facts.â
She called a singing girl forward and took off her bra, pointing at her chest. âYour Highness, please look.â
Pingyang was stunned. When the girl came down, she seemed well-endowed, but after the bra was removed, Pingyang laughed.
As Fei Yueâer said, the bra indeed made the girlâs chest firm and perky.
âI didnât expect bras to have this effect,â Pingyang laughed.
Fei Yueâer smiled slightly and explained what she learned from books: âAunt, girls begin developing around thirteen or fourteen years old. At this time, itâs easy forâ¦â
Recalling the bookâs contents, Fei Yueâer spoke fluently. The noblewomen, who had been joking, now felt she was very convincing. She described the age and physical changes clearly.
They initially thought Fei Yueâer brought out these items just to make money. After listening, they realized she truly cared about women in Great Yu.
âAlso, wearing this means we donât have to fear riding horses or falling down. Simply put, we can run and jump like men without being exposed,â Fei Yueâer summarized. âDuring that time of the month, we can insert silk fabric inside, and the panties ensure nothing falls out, so no blood stains remain.â
At that moment, all the noblewomen showed eager expressions. Fei Yueâer was right. They thought about it and agreed.
One noblewoman immediately said, âPrincess Consort, can I try it on?â
âOf course,â Fei Yueâer smiled. She felt she had persuaded them, even Princess Pingyang looked very interested.
Fei Yueâer picked up a new set of underwear and had the singing girls help the noblewoman put it on.
This noblewoman thought her figure was poor. After putting on the new clothes and then her original clothes, the others exclaimed, âHey, how did yours get bigger?â
Everyone looked and indeed, the noblewomanâs flat chest became perky with the bra on.
âI want to try too.â
Seeing this, other noblewomen quickly asked to try as well.
