Because it was made directly from silk, it was light and soft, thus Yuan Chengfu named it as the Cloud Cover.

In any case, Su Zixuan wouldn't give her name. In her opinion, silk was silk, but it didn't sound too elegant, but it sounded the most direct.

But there was no helping it, those noblemen liked it. The more cultured and magnificent the name, the more worthy it would be of their wealth.

Thus, this name was decided.

The letter from the capital had already been sent over, and the Head of the Internal Affairs Bureau had given the Su Clan face and told the Su Clan to prepare fully. If they could get lucky this year, they would do the same thing in the future.

Yuan Chengfu had already prepared all the items, he just needed to send someone to bring them back.

Right now, the most important thing was still the cloud cover.

Su Zixuan had been thinking about this ever since she made it.

That day, she specially called some embroidery ladies to discuss the matter.

"You guys can tell me what's wrong with this silk quilt." Su Zixuan sat at the head of the table. The embroidery lady had a hesitant expression on her face. She didn't dare to say it out loud.

When Su Zixuan saw this, she immediately understood their intentions. Most of them had the attitude of a superior, making them not dare to speak out for fear of making her unhappy.

"But there's no harm in talking about it. It's more reasonable to talk about the disadvantages here. Today, everyone says that they can get 10 taels of silver for every one of them. More is more."

Seeing that Su Zixuan's expression wasn't faked, a slightly braver woman from the embroidery team stood out and greeted him.

"It's been summer recently. The two quilts we made previously were left outside to dry for a while. When we retracted them, we discovered that the quilt seemed to have turned slightly yellow." The embroidery woman hesitated for a moment. "Although it is not very obvious, it is still easy for the silk to turn slightly yellow when exposed to the sun."

Su Zixuan nodded when she heard this. She hadn't come into contact with silk these past few days, so she couldn't help but ask, "Is there a solution to this?"

The embroidery lady revealed a smile. "Of course. Otherwise, those silks would have turned yellow after a short while." As long as we remove the color from the dye, just by using that medicine to bubble, we can make the silk pure white and shiny. "

Su Zixuan had a smile on his face as he said to Su Mao at the side, "Give twenty taels of silver to this embroidery lady." He then turned to the other embroidery ladies and said, "Give me one of your items, and I will reward you with a portion of silver. If you can solve this problem, then there will be another."

When the embroidery ladies heard this, they were all stirred up. When they saw Su Mao directly give twenty taels of silver to the embroidery lady, they immediately couldn't sit still any longer and all rushed forward to make their statement.

"Although this blanket made of silk is soft, it lacks quality. I saw that it hasn't even been a few days, and the silk has already gathered into a ball, becoming one piece after another. Although it's still soft, it's still not very good to use."

This startled Su Zixuan. It was indeed the case.

If it was only yellowish, he would have just warned her not to expose her skin. However, this was indeed a difficult problem.

The making method of the quilt was similar to that of other quilts. After layer upon layer of quilting was completed, the quilts were then compacted again. However, although the quilts were soft, they were not as soft as silk.

"Are there any solutions?"

The embroidery lady had a solemn expression. After thinking for a long time, she was still unable to come up with a solution, so she could only leave in embarrassment. Su Zixuan wasn't in a hurry.

A few more questions popped up one after another, some with solutions, some without. Su Zixuan kept those questions in mind, telling the embroidery ladies to think about it. If they found a way, they could just ask someone to come and give it to her, and they would all receive rewards.

After Su Zixuan returned, he didn't rest and began to carefully ponder over these questions.

Back then, when she made the silk quilt, she was still pleased with herself and thought that it was really amazing. Now that she looked at these unsolvable problems, she truly understood that in order to make something good, she needed a lot of things.

This was the so-called beginning and end.

However, she wasn't an expert in this field. Her mind only knew a little bit about textiles and other things, and she still couldn't think of any results.

However, the embroidery ladies' intelligence were limitless. After these experts returned, they had always been thinking about these things. They wanted to do well in front of the Young Master, and also wanted to earn that ten taels of silver.

Thus, not even until the afternoon of the second day, Su Zixuan saw several embroidery ladies, all of whom had brought methods with them.

Su Zixuan was especially surprised to hear that piece of silk, which was so soft and indeterminate.

"In order to protect you from the cold, winter cotton garments will always have some cotton inside them, but the clothes will be hanging down and the cotton will fall down easily, so we'll sew up the small cotton pieces one by one. This way, we'll be able to maintain the shape and also be able to warm up the winter a little."

"The silk quilt can also be like this, but it is a bit big, but the seams are not too small. The seams are a bit loose, so they are connected to each other but not to each other, so they can be shaped like this."

This method seemed to be really good. Su Zixuan immediately ordered the embroidery lady to lead the people to carry it out.

Sure enough, the silk under the blanket would not pile up into a lump.
