In the end, Jing Ci had no choice but to go to the Sheng Courtyard the next day to seek Yang Weiwei's help. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's good to just give it to me, why bother yourself." Yang Weixiao said with a smile.
On the bookcase, several beautiful patterns of underskirts are presented on the paper, vivid, showing every detail very delicately.
Jing Ci stared at the few pictures in front of him that were made by Yang Weiwei overnight, shook his head and sighed, "The third sister Danqing's wonderful hand is breathtaking. ”
"It's just a painting based on the records of the book, how can it be so exaggerated, come on, go and get busy with your business."
"Okay."
Jing Ci took the scroll and went out immediately, riding towards the best cloth village in Chang'an City. She showed the scroll to the cloth shop owner, and he selected the best fabric with the most suitable material, and after matching them one by one, she took the best cloth in Chang'an City that the young girl had found early and two or three embroidery girls went to the Luojiadi store in Dongcheng.
The embroidery girls measured the bodies of the ten Qinglou women one by one, and found that the figures of the ten women were very close after measurement. The women were all excited to have new clothes to wear.
"From today onwards, you have to practice standing and saluting, and you only need to practice these two well, and you will be half the battle." Jing Ci was dressed in men's clothes, and his hands were thick and his voice was thick to everyone.
"Are you sure? Is it that simple? ”
"You say, just stand and salute."
"As long as you don't get tired, you can ......"
Jing Ci signaled, and a teaching woman immediately walked in front of the women, holding a slender dried willow branch in her hand, and gently raised it with a smack, and the sound of rubbing against the air was extremely sharp, if it hit the flesh and skin...... They hurt just to hear it.
"What ...... is this?" the women were stunned at this.
The teaching mother-in-law was expressionless, and said coldly: "In the next few days, please cooperate with all the girls, if anyone is lazy, the whip in my hand will not be merciful." ”
"That's not possible, how can you be rude, we eat with our faces, can you afford to break it?"
"That's it, why do you use knives and whips......"
Whoop - Whoop –
The teaching woman gently waved the wicker in her hand, and several sounds were very frightening, and the women immediately stopped the sound.
"If the girls are afraid of ruining their flower and moon appearance, then it's a big deal if I don't use whips, how about using silver needles?" The teaching woman pulled the corners of her mouth and sneered, "At most, the silver needle will only leave some small needle eyes, and it will not be a big problem." ”
"Mama doesn't have to scruples," Jing Ci said loudly, blinking her eyes: "There are so many precious medicinal materials in my house, even if the girls are disabled, they can definitely be rescued in the next place, even if Mama whips them at will." ”
"You have such a vicious heart......"
"We don't study anymore, we have to go back ......"
"If you don't learn, you don't learn......"
The women muttered and wanted to run away from the door, but the mother-in-law waved her big hand, and she said—
"Ahh
"It hurts—"
The women took a few steps back, and the whip immediately tore through the light skirts of two or three people.
"If you don't want to be beaten, you can stand up for me! Don't be lazy! You people, it's just a cheap life, be careful that I let her go out sideways. The mother-in-law twitched the flesh on her face and stared at everyone with wide eyes.
The women were really frightened, they were silent, and they didn't dare to come out, this person was only afraid that she would be even more ruthless than the mother bustard in the brothel.
"Everyone, listen, and stand in a row, from tall to short. Hands and feet are a little sharp, haven't you eaten! "Teach the mother-in-law to walk back and forth and supervise," Stand up straight! ”
After a while, after the women stood for a while, the mother-in-law turned to Jing Ci and whispered: "Please Lang Jun go about your own business, I will definitely give you a satisfactory result in three days." ”
"There's Mama Lao."
…………
Jing Ci then returned to the house, changed into a purple skirt, applied a little powder, ordered the king's steward to prepare some generous gifts, and finally took Fang Nian and the young girl to the carriage to the Zong's house.
It's been a few days, and it's best to come to the door at this time.
"Siniang, why don't you wear men's clothes? Will people from the sect like us think that we despise them? Fang Nian was puzzled.
"Don't worry."
After a short time, the carriage stopped at the gate of the sect. The gatehouse passed through, and in a moment introduced Jing Ci and others into the sect mansion with carved beams and embroidered pillars.
The Zongfu is magnificent and atmospheric, and it is not much different from the ordinary Houmen.
In the front hall, the maid and the little maid stood aside, and two men sat on the upper seat, one in his thirties and the other in his twenties, both of whom looked coldly at the people who walked into their eyes step by step.
"Jing Ci has seen two Zonglang Jun." Jing Ci brought Fang Nian and young girls to salute together.
The younger man was incredulous and sneered, "The Yang family actually let a woman come? What do you think of my mansion? ”
"Women's affairs are naturally solved by women." Jing Ci looked calm.
The man was speechless, staring at her with wide eyes.
Another older man laughed dryly, "Erlang doesn't know, it's not that the Yang family looks down on us, but that there are only women left in the entire Zheng Guo Mansion now, we should be considerate." ”
"Zong Dalang is wrong, my father is alive, and there are not only women left in the Yang Mansion. Besides, what's wrong with the woman? The Empress of the Great Sage of Heaven has been in charge of the government for many years, and has governed the Tang Dynasty to make the country and the people safe, isn't this also a woman? ”
"Are you here to talk nonsense?" The young man rolled his eyes, his tone a little impatient.
Jing Ci raised his hand, and the little servant immediately stepped forward with a stack of gift boxes, Jing Ci smiled lightly, "I hereby formally apologize to Zong Erlang for Aunt Wu's actions, this matter is indeed my aunt's fault first, Yang Mansion has tried its best to find out the whereabouts of that woman, once captured, but it will be handled by Zong Erlang." ”
"Hmph, to put it lightly, the people you let go, your house is willing to arrest them back? When I'm a three-year-old, I can't be fooled! If you want to catch it, you will be caught it a long time ago, how can you not hear from it until now! ”
"Yang Mansion and your mansion have great powers, say that if you catch it, you can catch it back, people always have to look carefully, she can't escape the crime she committed, and she always has to bear the responsibility, but before that, I will compensate Aunt Wu first, and I have done something inappropriate."
"What's the use of compensation? Is my injury worth it if you apologize and give me a few boxes of gifts? I have the ability to let that maid come over and let her serve her sister in place, and I won't pursue it when I'm happy, otherwise I'll make her look good! ”
"Aunt Wan can't come to serve her father, and the Yang family will compensate her today." Jing Ci stared at him expressionlessly, the Zong family is all smart people, and they don't want to go against the Yang family, so they only bite Aunt Wu, in the final analysis, that is the goal.
Zong Erlang stared at Jing Ci with wide eyes, and slapped the table suddenly, "Don't you understand, I just want the maid, the maid is in my hands, and I'm afraid that the slut won't come back?" ”
"I have made it very clear, Aunt Wan is a member of the Yang family and can't move. I have already paid for the gift, and I will also send people to step up the search, if Zong Erlang makes the Zong family and the entire Yang family enemies for the sake of women, is it worth it? Jing Ci was cold and stared straight at him.
"Is it worth it for the Yang family to be an enemy of the Zong family for the sake of a concubine?" Zong Erlang also looked cold and looked at Jing Ci.
The four eyes looked at each other, the eyes of the two alternated, and between the electric light and flint, there was an implication of temptation and competition.
