The maids themselves did this, and this is how they educated and enlightened Zhang Mei, otherwise, how could their masters and servants live more optimistically to this day. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since embroidery can get money, Zhang Mei thought of taking on more work, "You say, can I take the embroidery work of many dead people outside, they will also give me money, we just take other people's things to embroider, it will not increase the burden of our yard and you, and we can earn money." I think that if we make money and don't take up space, my father and my mother will be happy and will no longer object to my embroidery. ”

"Miss is also a well-known person, although it is not a good reputation, everyone knows that you embroider well, why don't we just use people's sayings, saying that you are closer to the underworld, just take these jobs to do, and the work for the dead is happy to be handed over to you to do, as long as they pay the wages, we don't care much about how much, of course, whoever gives more money embroiders to whoever embroiders first." The maid supported Zhang Mei's idea.

The maid still had concerns, "That is, you must be the eldest lady of the Shaoqing family, so doing embroidery work for other people, and receiving the work of things used by dead people, will the lord and the eldest lady have an opinion, or even prevent you from doing this?" ”

"They won't let me do anything, do they want to torture me to death as soon as possible before I am willing? Let's do this first, and then talk about it when my father and my mother really oppose it, don't know what their attitude is, we don't dare to do it ourselves. Zhang Mei, who grew up alone in a family environment lacking parental care, is courageous, knowledgeable, brave and resourceful.

"If they really won't allow me to do anything, don't blame me for not just listening to them, but going out into the front yard and reasoning with them; Ran out on the street, reasoned with people all over the world, why did they treat me as a ghost, and splashed me with dirty water to insist that I would harm people, but they were only harming me. "Forced Zhang Mei to be anxious, she dared to do anything, she only considered her parents Zhang Jieyuan and Mrs. Zhang, so she had to be a good girl for 16 years.

The maid hurriedly dissuaded, "Don't, don't be a child, don't be filial." If you make a fuss, the lord will put all the blame on the eldest lady and blame the eldest lady, can you bear it? ”

"But the parents obey their orders, and listen to the wrong words, no matter how much they are hurt, that is foolishness. Alas. Zhang Mei sighed and continued the embroidery work on her hands, "I'm just saying that as long as I live at home, I have to be a good girl, don't trouble my father and my mother, and can't make them sad; I couldn't bear it anymore, so I secretly ran out to fend for myself, to a place where no one knew us, whether it was dead or alive, as long as we were not treated differently by others, and it was easy and happy for a few days. Are you going with you? ”

"Don't talk stupidly, how does a girl leave home and show her face outside." The maid resolutely objected, "Don't think nonsense, no matter how good the outside is, it's not as good as your own home, and besides, the society outside is a cannibalistic society, you will soon not be able to live, and you won't be able to go back to your home when the time comes, life is better than death, why bother, don't have this kind of thought." ”

"I want to listen to Lu Lingzhu's words, embroider well, finish the embroidery as soon as possible, and earn the ten taels of silver first. As for you, from now on you can help me connect with other jobs and see how much they can give. Let them see that I can earn money myself, and I used to only spend my parents' money. Thinking that he is no longer financially controlled by others and can embroider as he pleases, Zhang Mei's face is like a peach blossom.

Doing such a job, Zhang Mei was still so happy, and the maid looked at it and felt pain: This child is too pitiful! Although she is against it, if she makes a decision, she can't persuade her, no matter what she does, as long as she still has a breath of air, she will always be by her side.

Zhang Mei suddenly stopped the embroidery work in her hand, raised her head, looked at the large pile of embroidery in the courtyard, and asked the maid excitedly: "You say, can we also sell this large pile of things we have embroidered?" It's not for the dead, maybe it can be sold for a good price, but I heard, or you told me, that people think my embroidery is very good, and there are few who can compare with it. ”

How to answer Zhang Mei, you can't tell the truth, the silk she embroidered, those who know, don't dare to wear it, thinking that it is unlucky, how can it be sold and given to others, and people should not want it.

The maid was speechless, Zhang Mei wanted to find out the reason, her smile was gone, her face became dull, she stopped talking, lowered her head and continued to embroider carefully stitch by stitch.

After a while, Zhang Mei raised her head again and asked expressionlessly: "If we don't say that I embroidered it, let's find a place to sell it from afar, and sell it cheaper, can we sell it quickly?" She has been thinking about this in her heart, how to sell the finished embroidery to others.

"These embroideries are so exquisite, they embody all the hard work of Miss, why do you have to sell them, for a little money, it's not worth it, I'm not afraid to toss and toss, it's not too troublesome." If we can get a lot of work for the clothes of the dead, and there is a steady stream of silk for you to embroider, I am afraid that you will not be busy at that time, and there will be no shortage of money to buy needlework and silk in the future, so why sell them out. We can do samples of these. "The real reason is that the maid doesn't know who she can sell to, but she can't be so straightforward.

Zhang Mei must sell, I hope to sell, she has her reasons, "Sell, others accept my embroidery, wear it on the body, nothing bad happens, maybe it can bring them good luck, but also my voice and opportunity to complain to the society and our family." ”

Zhang Mei's intentions are good, which is really sympathetic, and the maid is willing to give it a try, "Or, one day I will take it to the county seat outside the capital to sell and try it, there is a distance from the capital, and the news is relatively closed; Although the county seat is far less rich than the people in the capital, there are still some people with economic strength who live there. I definitely don't say that it is embroidered by you, Miss, who can see who the embroiderer is, maybe many people will like it, and are willing to pay a higher price to buy it, as their best clothes, and wear them on the most important occasions. ”

"It is good clothes to wear every day. Thank you, you hurry up and try it. I'm fine at home for a day or two, they won't send me food and food, I can eat the rest of the day, you don't have to worry about my daily life, I can take care of myself. If you take clothes out to sell, you will definitely not be able to go as far as the county seat outside the capital with so many things, you have to take a car, and you have to eat outside, I still have a few dollars here, you can take it on the road first. Zhang Mei thought about everything, Xi Zizi immediately gave the maid the money, wishing that she would leave immediately, of course, tomorrow morning at the earliest. (To be continued.)
