256 Wedding Clothes - Part 1
Sunday, continued …
Twenty-five minutes after leaving the Hou ancestral home they reached the VIP entrance to M Mall.Hou Yi and James carefully manoeuvred Anna out of the limousine and into her wheelchair before moving to the entrance, waiting for everyone else to climb out of the vehicles and gather there.Hou Yi then rang the bell.
There was an immediate request "Who is it"
Hou Yi responded "Hou Yi."
The voice came over "CEO Hou, we were not expecting you.Can you inform me, other than your wife who is with you?"
"My mother, aunt, brother-in-law, two sisters-in-law and 8 of my nieces and nephews.We would have used the normal entrance, but with my wife's injury we do need some assistance on going through the Mall."
"Come in CEO Hou.I will check if Madam Hou's preferred personal shopper is working."
With that the door opened, and James pushed Anna into the waiting area, with everyone else following behind, Hou Yi and the bodyguards being the last through the door.As Hou Yi moved over to Anna personal shopper Rebecca arrived.
"CEO Hou, First Madam Hou, Second Madam Hou, Young Madam Hou, it is a pleasure to see you all.How can I help you?"
Anna quickly responded "Rebecca, can you firstly take us to the tailors that we went to, and then once we are done we will need some help, firstly to take the children to the playground area, my brother will want to go and see the electronic area, and shopping for the rest.There will be a friend coming to meet us Amanda Mei, can someone when she arrives please bring her to meet us."
Hou Yi lent down and whispered to Anna "Are you condemning me to shop with my mother and aunt.That is not fair."
Anna turned and whispered back "And how you teased me this morning was not fair either."Anna laughed and continued "Let me think about it."
Rebecca witnessed the by play between CEO Hou and his wife, and realised that something seemed different to what Sadie had reported as being on the first time they were together here.She indicated "Please follow me."
She then turned around and walked down the corridor to enter the mall itself, following her was the group, lead by Anna and Hou Yi to the tailors that Anna found on her first walk through.As she arrived the store was quiet, and as soon as Rebecca Anna and Hou Yi entered, the owners daughter Rose came out."Madam Hou, it is a pleasure to see you again.We are sorry to hear about your accident.How can we help you?"
"If your father about?"
"Let me get him for you."
A couple of minutes later the tailor came from the back.As soon as he spotted Anna "Madam Hou, a pleasure to see you again.I was about to get a message to you, I have your wedding dress design finished.Did you want to see it?"
"Absolutely, however we have come here for some other thing.Let me introduce you to my husband."
"CEO Hou ..."
"Do not worry, the reason I have dragged him and my brother in, is for you to measure them for suits for our wedding.Colour and design is up to them.I also have my sisters-in-law who will be my bridesmaids, plus I need dresses and suits for my nieces and nephews as well.You know I trust you."
"Fine Madam Hou.Rose will bring out the design for you, and we will get to measuring everyone.I had suspected that you might want bridesmaid's dresses, so I had designed them as well.I can adapt those designs for the girls and the boys suits should be easy."With that he turned to Rose "Rose can you get the designs for Madam Hou please."
"Yes father."
A couple of minutes later Rose handed Anna some designed, and the children were all taken back with the help of Rosemary, Rebecca and James to be measured.Hou Yi, crouched beside Anna, and looked at the designs that had been handed to her.
As soon as he saw the wedding dress design, he realised Anna had made the right decision.The design was perfect for her, he knew it would suit her frame.The colour swatches for the material clearly suited Anna's skin tones.All he could say "It looks like it will be perfect.I cannot wait until you are back on your feet and walk down the aisle wearing that towards me.You will be a vision."
