Lin Wan shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "Let's take one step at a time, I still say the same thing, things are man-made! I believe that there is no endless road, as long as we persevere, there will always be a way." Moreover, I believe that Ximen Yuqing should not be embarrassed by me. ”

Zhao Jing'er nodded, and said, "Wan'er, speaking of which, you have always been helping us." If one day, when you need our help, you must tell us, don't hold it alone, understand?"

Lin Wan smiled, nodded solemnly, and said word by word: "Okay, I will definitely not be polite to you." ”

The two girls opened their hearts and chatted all the way, and their mood improved. When the carriage stopped in front of the gold needle embroidery workshop, when the two stepped out of the carriage, they were already holding hands, shoulder to shoulder, and even walked much brisker, their faces full of joy and passion.

In the golden needle embroidery workshop, it was indeed full of guests, Tong Xinyan and the shopkeeper each greeted the distinguished guests, and they really couldn't distinguish their origins to greet Lin Wan and Zhao Jing'er.

Lin Wan and Zhao Jing'er didn't regard themselves as outsiders, and when they saw that the guest greeted by Tong Xinyan was Wu Qian, they hurriedly walked over with a smile.

There was also a woman beside Wu Qian, who was very familiar, but she couldn't name it. Seeing Lin Wan and Zhao Jing'er coming, Wu Qian's face was full of joy and said happily: "Princess Wanxin, Sister Jing'er, you are also here." ”

Lin Wan smiled faintly and said, "Qian'er, the two of us are about the same age, you can call me Wan'er, they are all little sisters who grew up together, don't call them angry." ”

Wu Qian nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Wan'er is right, your cousin has become my sister-in-law, and we are also relatives, so we shouldn't be so angry, and we call them by name in private." But when it comes to formal occasions, I can't break the rules, I should still salute you and call you princess. ”

Lin Wan didn't argue with her, turned her head to look at the woman beside her, nodded slightly, and said hello.

Wu Qian seemed to remember this, and introduced to the woman next to her: "Amin, this is Princess Wanxin, do you remember?"

Amin nodded with a smile and said, "Of course I remember Princess Wanxin, at the hunting ceremony, she was a popular figure, and it is estimated that everyone present will not know Princess Wanxin." However, Princess Wanxin must not have noticed a little person like me......"

While Amin was speaking, Lin Wan recalled that she had indeed seen this woman at the hunting ceremony, and that she had spoken to Liu Shikui, the general of Xiping. Lin Wan immediately remembered that Liu Fangyao had a sister-in-law, although she was not close to Liu Fangyao, but she was extremely favored by Liu Shikui. This Miss Liu Si's name is Liu Fangmin, and she was born to a very favored concubine of Liu Shikui.

Liu Shikui has been guarding Xiping City for many years, and he took this concubine and this Miss Liu Si with him and raised them in Xiping City. When I returned to Beijing this time, because I didn't plan to go back to the border again, I brought my concubine and Liu Fangmin back.

Lin Wan guessed the identity of the other party, and also heard the sarcasm in the other party's tone, couldn't help but smile faintly, interrupted Liu Fangmin's words, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu Si is not right, how can Miss Liu Si be a small person? You are General Liu's most beloved daughter, both civil and military, and outstanding in talent and appearance, I don't want to notice you, it's impossible! I've been looking for a chance to make friends with Miss Liu Si, but I didn't expect to see you here." ”

Liu Fangmin didn't expect Lin Wan to be so easy to speak, she didn't even take it to heart when she sneered at her just now, she even complimented herself, and said that she wanted to make friends with her. Liu Fangmin didn't know what to say for a while, so she had to smile and say politely: "Princess Wanxin really has a good memory." ”

Lin Wan smiled slightly, and asked Wu Qian: "Qian'er, what embroidery have you and Miss Liu Si taken a fancy to, even if you pick it, Sister Tong's craftsmanship will definitely not disappoint you." ”

Wu Qian nodded and smiled: "That's natural, and I can't find a better embroidery in the whole capital than the gold needle embroidery workshop." Amin had just returned from Xiping City and needed to buy some clothes, so I brought her here. I first ordered several sets of clothes in the Liying Xiangge opposite, and then went to Sister Tong to choose embroidery. Just now, Amin saw several embroidery patterns and liked them very much, and he couldn't make up his mind. ”

Lin Wan looked at a sample embroidered with orchids and a sample embroidered with begonia flowers in Liu Fangmin's hand, smiled faintly, and said: "This orchid and this begonia are very chic, but the orchid is elegant and the begonia is delicate, I think the orchid is more in line with Miss Liu Si's temperament, Miss Liu Si, what do you think?"

Seeing that Lin Wan was so enthusiastic, Liu Fangmin actually helped herself choose an embroidery sample, her heart suddenly relaxed, looked at the embroidery sample in her hand, and finally put back the sample embroidered with begonias, nodded, and said: "Princess Wanxin is reasonable, I think so, let's just use this orchid pattern." As he spoke, he said politely to Tong Xinyan on the side: "Trouble Master Tong, help embroider this orchid pattern on the clothes I ordered, and then help me embroider fifty handkerchiefs with this pattern, and don't give this pattern to others in the future, is it okay?"

Tong Xinyan nodded with a smile and said, "There is no problem with this, it's just that if Miss Liu Si wants to buy out this pattern, she needs to pay another three thousand taels of silver, I wonder if Miss Liu Si needs to think about it again?"

Liu Fangmin frowned, and seemed to be a little hesitant, but seeing so many people looking at her, and Lin Wan was present, how could she be embarrassed to go back on her word because she felt sorry for the silver? So, she nodded and said, "There is no problem, as long as Master Tong promises that I will not be allowed to see this pattern in others in the future." ”

Tong Xinyan shook her head with a smile and said, "Miss Liu Si, of course I can't guarantee that others won't go to other embroidery workshops to embroider this pattern because they like this pattern." However, I can assure you that we will never embroider this pattern for others. Therefore, even if someone imitates it, it is impossible to be exactly the same, and it is impossible to imitate the craftsmanship of the gold needle embroidery workshop. Moreover, this pattern was designed by me personally and has not been used yet. I can vouch that no one else has used this pattern before. ”

Liu Fangmin nodded with satisfaction and said, "Great, then there will be Master Laotong." I will ask for it in five days, this is a deposit, please Master Tong must complete it within the specified time. Otherwise, according to the rules, your gold needle embroidery workshop will have to pay me ten times the deposit. So saying, he took out two minas of gold and put them on the table.

Tong Xinyan was a little embarrassed, frowned and said: "Miss Liu Si has ordered six sets of clothes in the Liying Xiang Pavilion, and it will take at least five days to finish these clothes, Miss Liu Si asked our golden needle embroidery workshop to deliver them within five days, is the time too tight?"
