The emperor on the high seat was obviously in a very good mood today, and he was not present when the little ladies were examining poetry in the morning, and he felt a little regretful. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fu Nianjun heard the inner servants beside the emperor shouting:

"Which one is the eldest daughter of Fu Xianggong's family?"

Fu Nianjun knew that this was the emperor's fulfillment of his promise, and he wanted to meet her, the little lady who took the lead in Yongmei's words.

Fu Nianjun stepped forward and saluted.

Empress Shu said to the emperor: "This is Fu Erniang, the official family wanted to call her to see her during the Dragon Boat Festival, but she only had a chance today." ”

The emperor touched his beard and said, "She is worthy of being Fu Qing's daughter, and she writes well." ”

The emperor said such words himself, even if others didn't recognize it, Fu Nianjun could only recognize this name.

After thanking her, she politely retreated to her place.

Concubine Zhang Shufei next to her still couldn't help but want to remind Emperor Fu Nianjun of the "ugly things" back then.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, she wanted the emperor to see Fu Nianjun, and praised her vigorously, but now she has fallen again, and she can't wait for Fu Nianjun to lose face in the main hall.

On the contrary, the emperor did not ask her to pull her over in three sentences this time, but only said:

"It was inevitable that he was ignorant when he was a child, and now he is so good, which shows that Fu Qing is well-educated."

Concubine Zhang Shufei was good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder, and seeing that the emperor had a good impression of Fu Nianjun, she naturally immediately changed the direction of the wind, no longer saying that she was bad, but began to "place high hopes" on her.

This afternoon's competition was announced by the waiter, which was unexpected by the little ladies in the hall.

The daughter of the family is not as popular as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but it is more popular than women.

If you want to say that it is more popular than women, who doesn't know how to embroider two peach blossoms and plum blossoms, but the emperor's unique way really caught them off guard.

It is not that they are compared to embroidery, but to textile and tailoring, and there are also full-time female officials in the palace Shangfu Bureau to judge.

The faces of all the little ladies turned dark, this is all done by peasant women, how can they understand?

The silk and satin worn by each of them are made by skilled craftsmen, and when they are embroidered and tailored, when they reach them, every piece of clothing is extraordinary, and they have been golden branches and jade leaves since childhood, and where have they come into contact with ramie cotton and spool spinning wheels.

What's more, if they have to do such a thing as tailoring, what do they need to do with the tailors outside and the Shangfu Bureau in the palace?

The little ladies just didn't expect the emperor to give them such a problem.

Fu Nianjun can understand somewhat.

The emperor of this dynasty set up a viewing hall and a silkworm palace in the palace, the queen as the mother of a country, will also complete the entire silkworm raising process in the silkworm palace, the queen of the first generation was mostly through the motions, but the last time Fu Nianjun entered the palace, he noticed that Queen Shu really did her own farming.

Even she had heard thirty years later that there were all kinds of spinning wheels and looms in the Silkworm Palace, which were used by Shu, the successor of Li Zong.

Therefore, the daughter-in-law that the emperor wants to choose may even be the successor to the throne in the future, and Queen Shu naturally hopes to find a little lady who is not high, but who attaches importance to agricultural affairs like herself, at least does not despise these things.

The weaving cloth had to be spun first, and when the attendants brought up the tools in the same way, the little ladies were even more worried.

There are even a lot of people who don't know these things.

Fu Nianjun was cultivated as a princess in the past, and as a compulsory course for the queen, she naturally understood something, not to mention that when she lived in another courtyard with her mother when she was a child, her mother Lu Wanrong would also spin and weave cloth by herself, not that Fu Ning didn't even take care of their basic life, but life was too boring, and there was no better way to spend time.

Under such influence, Fu Nianjun can naturally get started with such a job, but he is also rough and cannot be said to be proficient.

Fu Nianjun looked at the tools available for selection, and said in his heart that this competition is really unique, twisting, spinning, and reeling silk can be chosen by themselves.

This is the most basic farming, and it is just a showcase, Fu Nianjun hesitated, and still chose a hand-held spindle.

It's a safe choice.

And almost half of the little ladies in Thailand have chosen twisted threads.

It's the easiest and least tech-free.

Since ancient times, the common people wear clothes made of linen, the linen clothes are rough, and the same is true of the hemp thread used to weave linen, the current hemp skin has been soaked in advance, they only need to peel the hemp skin from the hemp stem, sort it out, smooth it, and then put it in the water again, and twist the separated twine into a long thread by hand.

Fu Nianjun glanced at the slender jade hands of these little ladies, and said in his heart, wait a while, half of them will cry.

She looked at the emperor and queen on the high seat again, and saw that they were calm and smiling.

This may not only be a test of women's skills, but also to observe their mentality and temper.

Fu Nianjun's hand-held spindle can no longer be twisted by hand, the operation is simple, there is no need to grind the hand to the ground and scarred, and it will not be out of shape in front of the emperor, but in terms of speed, it is not much faster than using hands.

And in this project, it seems that she was born to prepare for Pei Siniang, she chose a pedal spinning wheel alone, and her movements were skillful, everyone could only see the spindle rotating quickly on the side, but Pei Siniang just looked calm and indifferent.

When the rest of the little ladies were still discussing how to twist the tangled twine in their hands together, Pei Siniang had already finished it.

The female officials of the Shangfu Bureau smiled frequently at Pei Siniang, and Queen Shu also praised her.

"In a family like the Pei family, Pei Xiaoniang not only learns poetry and books, but also knows such agricultural affairs, which is really surprising."

Pei Siniang said a little shyly:

"The father of the courtiers often said that all the noble families came from the farmers, the ancestors of the Pei family were farmers in the mountains, poetry, books, etiquette and music are important, but you can't forget your roots, you have a low eye, and you abandon the farm for the sake of gold and jade, so the courtier's mother has taught the courtiers these since she was a child, and only reminds the courtiers that I am just the most ordinary woman among all living beings."

When the emperor heard this, he laughed and praised without hesitation: "Don't abandon the farmland for the sake of gold and jade!" The Pei family is really good, you are so young and knowledgeable, it is rare! ”

Empress Shu, Concubine Zhang Shufei and others were busy, and they also had fun and praised a few words.

Pei Siniang showed a slight smug smile on her face, while the rest of the little ladies all had different expressions.

Especially Lu Qiniang, she couldn't help frowning, and her cold gaze shot at Pei Siniang.

Her expression, in addition to the anxiety of Shicai because she couldn't handle the twine in her hands, was also mixed with deep contempt and disgust.
