Chapter 22: Temptation and Taste

The first update

The first time he came to pick up the goods was not the young man, but the old shopkeeper himself, he first looked at the courtyard, and then walked to the main hall, Li Ping smiled at him, invited him to sit down, and Lilac was busy serving tea. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 After serving tea, Lilac was more excited than Li Ping to put the embroidery in the tray and brought it out.

The old shopkeeper lifted the square of fine yarn and looked back and forth, it was not double-sided embroidery, but there was no thread on the back. But when it came to the color, he hesitated a little, "Grandma, is this color a little heavier?" ”

"This kind of embroidered screen is placed in the hall, I deliberately choose the color in the sun, and when I turn back and reflect the candlelight, it will be extraordinarily excellent." Li Ping smiled, this is not an ornament placed in the boudoir, but on the table screen in the main hall. No matter how bright the hall is, the light will not shine on the table, so in the shadows, the human eye actually perceives the color differently. Li Ping thought of this, so she deliberately chose the color in the sun, which is to create the brilliance of the shadows.

"The old man has been taught." The old shopkeeper was stunned for a moment and thought about getting up, Li Ping's house is also a regular house facing north and south, he put the light yarn lightly on the table screen on the table and hung it, he took a few steps back, looked back again, and sure enough, he could be attracted by this embroidered screen at the first glance, and the color did not feel heavy. Carefully took back the embroidery, carefully wrapped it in several layers of tissue paper, folded it into small pieces, and put it in a small cloth bag. At this time, he took out a silver ticket from his sleeve pocket, "This is the ticket of Fuxing Qianzhuang, the eldest grandmother has a deep relationship with the Chen family, this eldest grandmother can still be trusted, right?" ”

Li Ping opened it and took a look, twenty taels plus the five taels paid before, this price is fair. The fact that his eldest brother went to find it in person also showed their relationship with the Fuxing. This will give her the silver ticket of the Fuxing, which also shows their sincerity.

Although I also know that this embroidered screen, with a mahogany frame glass screen, this is not a hundred taels that cannot be taken. If it is a little more refined, it is possible to reach thousands of taels. However, she can't think that hard work is still labor, and at this time, she can only be regarded as labor. It's just that, that is, than theirs

"The second one will be a little longer, although the screen width is about the same, but this time it's a boudoir screen, I'm afraid it will take some effort." Li Ping raised his eyes and looked at the old shopkeeper.

"Is there a difference?" The old shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, in his opinion, it was all the same, but the patterns were different, so the usage was also different.

"The girl's dowry is better than fine. Besides, if the mothers around Miss are sharp-eyed, I'm also afraid of smashing your brand. Li Ping chuckled and said softly.

Although the old shopkeeper did not mark its usage on the order, Li Ping was also from a wealthy background, and the various doorways were also clear. When you see that name, you know where to put it. This trick, no matter how obvious it is, is used as a dowry for girls, and it can't be arbitrary.

Besides, it must not be simple for people who can afford such an embroidered screen. This is placed in the new house, in case there is any entertainment or the like, the girls and ladies who come and go are also to be judged, she can't smash her own brand, she doesn't know how long Zeng Fan will take the exam, she has to prepare for a long time, and she can't smash her own brand.

The old shopkeeper can get through at one point, think about it, "Grandma is still as soon as possible, anyway, the wedding period is not waiting for anyone, we have to make some accessories, or take it easy." ”

"Yes!" Li Ping didn't bother to debunk them, and his first report was twenty days, but he actually deliberately showed off his skills in front of the store. They didn't know their speed at that time, so they put this one in front, obviously this one was in a hurry, and now she handed it in advance, and they are still urging the second one, which is a bit deceitful. However, Li Ping also knows that stores are like this, and if they want to make money, they naturally have to squeeze other people's labor first. The faster and more they do it, the more they will be able to make money.

The old shopkeeper left five taels of cash as a deposit, and then left.

Lilac is a little strange, now she and Li Ping are not short of life, she is a death deed, since she is different from the hired person, she is now the person who regards herself as Li Ping, "Young grandma, why don't they take a piece of silver?" ”

"The old shopkeeper came in person, just because he was afraid that I would not succeed, for the sake of the Chen family's face, they gave the silver, and then shirked it, and they didn't let me do it in the future." Li Ping smiled, feeling that the old shopkeeper was also well-intentioned, "Okay, make money, you go buy a fat duck and come back, Brother Hao is here, I'm also busy, I should have made him something delicious, and I should have said hello." ”

"Isn't it in a hurry?" Lilac was in a hurry again.

"I'll just say that, but yes, you can't let them squeeze it, there are twenty taels of silver, and the young master's tuition this year is enough, so you don't need to be too anxious." Li Ping smiled lightly, put away the silver ticket, took some copper and gave it to the cloves, and said some condiments to buy the cloves together.

Lilac was a little nervous, thinking about it or looking back, "Grandma is still diligent, and money is always good." ”

Li Ping was speechless, smiled and spat the cloves, Lilac beckoned Ding Tong to go with her, Li Ping also shouted in the house, asking Lilac to buy some candy for Ding Tong to eat, of course, Lilac can also eat some by herself. In the distance, the laughter of the two of them could be heard.

Li Ping likes to eat ducks very much, but ducks are quite expensive, Li Niangzi rarely does it at home, Li Ping later did business, and she will buy one at intervals, so that the whole family can eat a little better. Of course, every time she did it, she would be scolded by Mrs. Li, saying that she was a loser, and by the way, she also said that the duck was fishy, and no one was willing to eat it.

In fact, every time she made ducks, the family ate very happily, and even Chen Jing, who really didn't like to eat ducks, could eat some.

Thinking that she hadn't made a duck for Zeng Fan yet, although she was named after Brother Hao, she actually wanted to give it to Zeng Fan. He's the one who hasn't eaten much of the good.

She worked on the first one for eighteen days, and in the past two days, she has actually started to draw the second one and choose the line. But because I'm too anxious, it's really carefully chosen. Of course, the reasons mentioned earlier are also correct. No matter what it is, it is placed in a different place, and the method is really different. It's not that the old shopkeeper can't think of it, but he is the old shopkeeper, he has never been in the mansion, and there are some things that they really can't think of so fine.

This time, she put the color selection under the constant light, and the color was normal, but it was still divided into eight strands, and the order in which she wanted to use it was slowly divided.

"Anyone?" There was a call at the door.

Li Ping was stunned for a moment, on weekdays, there are only a few people in the family, and they haven't been here for a long time, who will come to them? Even if there are guests, they are also Zeng Fan's friends, but those people are also Zeng Fan's classmates, so they will not knock on the door at this time. (To be continued.) )
