Chapter 37
Hearing this, Ting ran couldn't help laughing, "this time, you can be regarded as meeting the real God." Then he pointed to leisurely and said, "I don't know much about this. Sister leisurely is an expert. Please ask her."
Yulian also looks at leisurely. "The yarn flower that my sister sent me last time is also very delicate. It's no surprise that I want to come to embroider. Good sister, you've been in Beijing for many years and you've seen a lot of things. Please help me to have a look. I'm worried to death. "
Leisurely waved his hand and said, "I don't know much, but I've seen more of the world than my two sisters. Since my sister doesn't dislike me, I'll talk about my humble opinion. It's up to my sister to think about it. "
Then he pointed to the folded cloth and said, "sister, this material is already very gorgeous. If you embroider some flowers on it, it will be more abrupt. If not only in the skirt cuff inlaid with a wide edge, with gold thread embroidered on a circle of festive patterns. It not only shows the embroidery work, but also saves the waste of the pattern of the material itself. What does sister Yulian think? "
Yulian said with a smile, "you are still in a good mood. I never thought of it again. Just do as my sister said. It's just that our family can't afford the golden thread. "
Leisurely smile "I said so casually, both to show embroidery, it can't be red, golden, orange."
"Well, I happen to have a lot of yellow and apricot silk threads here. In the afternoon, I asked my mother to help me cut the material, and I did as my sister said."
The three sisters discussed the appearance of the flowers again. At noon, leisurely, they left and went home. Although aunt Zhou is eager to keep them for dinner, Yulian's sister-in-law is reluctant. The bowl in her hand is clanging. They are both kind-hearted people. How can they be willing to stay here to see people coldly? Therefore, he insisted on leaving.
After the two of them left, Zhou took a look at his daughter-in-law, Zhang, and said, "now that you are capable, I can't be your master. Let him talk to you when the boss comes back in the evening."
After that, he went into the main room and stopped looking at her. He asked his daughter and grandson to have dinner. Although Zhang was a little uneasy, he felt that he had done nothing wrong. He felt calm when he thought about it.
But in the evening, Xianggong Lincheng came back and learned about it. When he came back to the house, he scolded her. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he was. He couldn't help crying, "just two little girls. They're not precious people. They didn't help us when they came to our house, but they talked and laughed with my sister-in-law for a while, and they would stay for lunch at noon. If they came every day, wouldn't they manage our meals every day? Together, my sister-in-law, Jin Gui, even her companions follow Jin Gui? "
"What do you mean by that?"
"What do I mean? My parents have already prepared so much dowry for my sister-in-law before the bride price. It costs two liang silver for a piece of fabric that is big enough to be slapped, not counting other clothing materials. We are not big families. Can we afford to spend like this? Besides, the furniture cost only 34 liang of silver. Plus the silver for bedding, jewelry and pressing boxes, it can't add up to 23 liang? "
Lin Cheng said, "OK, no more. I see. You are just jealous of your sister. "
Zhang's airway: "I ask myself that I'm not such a mean person, but my parents are too eccentric. How many betrothal gifts did I get when I passed by? My sister-in-law never does heavy work on weekdays. After all, she is a big girl. She needs to be clean and easy to find someone else. But it would be too much for her to take the silver. How much money does our family have now? Together, when my aunt is married, we will have no more time? "
Lin Cheng sighed, "it's still money! Don't worry. It doesn't cost her parents much money to get married. She has a lot of private money. My parents can't empty out the whole family. "
Zhang does not believe "where does the remaining silver come from? The bride price has not been paid yet? " Lin Cheng sneered, "that's why my mother wants to woo those two cousins. Do you know how much money my little sister can earn each month just by embroidery?"
"How much?"
"At least a sling of money, when there is more, you can get two liang of silver. Half of the money she earns goes to her family and half to herself. Over the past few years, if there is more, we can save more than three or forty Liang. " Lin Cheng took a sip of tea and said slowly.
Zhang was surprised and asked, "can my little sister make so much money doing embroidery? Don't deceive me. I've also sold a purse. One purse only costs four or five Wen. I can make three or four at most in a day. I'm so tired that I can't earn two liang silver in a month, can I? "
Lin Cheng looked at her and said, "you can't even embroider with your skill. What can you earn? My little sister can embroider. Can you give me a price for the smooth purse and the embroidered one? "
Zhang said, "so it is. I don't go to my little sister's house at leisure. I didn't expect her to be so skilled. Just, what does this have to do with them? "
Lin Cheng said, "my mother's girl is ordinary. How can I teach my little sister? Her needlework was learned from the second aunt there when she was a child, and her aunt also gave her advice. This is a family skill. Even if my little sister only learned a little, it would be enough for her to be useful all her life. This time, the little sister can set such a good fiance, her craftsmanship also accounts for most of the credit. My mother can not be grateful to others for a lifetime? Moreover, not to mention that Enron was a scholar when he was young. Leisurely, he came out of the capital's Marquis's house. He used to be Mrs. Hou's servant girl. Even if he came out, he always had some fragrant feelings there. Let's be polite now. If we get into any trouble in the future, we can talk, can't we? "
Zhang nodded, "so it is. I think it's wrong. I'll go to apologize with my mother tomorrow. Speaking of it, this leisurely sister is really different from us. It's the same as walking. People will look better when they walk. "
"Oh, I didn't notice that. OK, I've been tired all day outside, and I still have to be angry with your mother-in-law when I come back. It's really... "
"Come on, honey, I'm wrong. You go out to work hard. Come on, I'll press it for you. "
The little disturbance of Yulian's family passed like this. When leisurely went to Yulian's house again, he felt that Zhang's words were much more polite, and he didn't pay attention to them. He just continued to live her life. In addition to doing what we can, it's all about embroidery.
That piece of durian kaibaizi is not big, but it has been embroidered in ten days. Most of the embroidery for Fang Xinsu has been finished. Leisurely, I remember Fang Xinsu said that she loved Du Mu's poems most, so she chose one of Du Mu's most famous poems, a trip to the mountains, drew more than ten paintings according to the artistic conception of the poem, and finally chose her favorite one as the manuscript and embroidered it. Now, it's already in its infancy.
