Chapter 111: Lotus Falls Silent Embroidery Workshop Celebrates New Life (1)
Hearing this, the old man hurriedly stopped laughing, turned around and looked at Qing'er a few times, and said, "Girl, is it the notice you revealed?" ”
Qing'er nodded timidly. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
The old man smiled again: "Sure enough, the real person doesn't show up, I didn't expect you to have such great ambition at a young age." As he spoke, he turned around and said to the man in a white silk inlaid golden twig robe sitting on the side, "Childe, you see, this is the only one who has been on the list for a few days, do you want to find out first?" ”
The white-robed man smiled and said, "Your place is vast and sparsely populated, and it is already unexpected that someone can unveil the list." He asked Qing'er again, "How old are you?" What do you do at home? ”
Qing'er said: "If you go back to your father, the little girl has not yet reached her birthday this year, her parents are farming, and there is an elder brother who works as a helper in a large family. ”
The white-robed man nodded slightly: "In this way, it is the daughter of a pure white family." Anyway, since you dare to unveil the list, we have to know what you can do until we see it. So saying, he ordered the needle and thread to be fetched.
Qing'er didn't want to have this trick, so he turned pale, and his palms were sweating vigorously, not knowing what he wanted to see. After a while, a little maid came out of the backyard, combed a bun, wore a silver and red shirt, covered with a snow-green armor, and came with a sewing basket in her arms, and asked, "Master, are you enough to see these?" ”
The old man looked into the basket, and saw that there were all kinds of silk threads, and there was still a white silk that had not been moved, so he said: "Enough is enough, but it is a small job, and it doesn't need so much." Then he asked the maid to send the basket to the white-robed man, and said, "Childe, you can also take a look." ”
The white-robed man stretched out his hand and pushed the basket half a foot away, shook his head and smiled, "I don't need to look at it." He turned back to Qing'er and said, "Although I am a layman of needlework, I have worn clothes for so many years, and I know what is good and what is not." You just pick up the most skilled and simple embroidery, limited to one hour. Master Deng and I are waiting here, you go and embroider yours, and come back when you're ready. ”
"This ......" Qing'er couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, it's not difficult to embroider a good pattern, but it's much more difficult to embroider a pattern that shows her ability. The skills on this needle are complicated, but there are dozens of needles, where does she know which one to use to show her ability, it is clearly a difficult person, and it is strange that Qiao'er has repeatedly said that it is greasy.
But it has come to this, and it must be embroidered anyway, otherwise it will not make people see the joke. Bowing down to answer, Qing'er really took the basket and followed the maid who came before to a side room in the backyard, thought quietly for a while, and then picked up his best narcissus and embroidered a small sample.
After an hour, Qing'er intuitively felt that her neck was drooping and swelling badly, and the maid waiting outside pinched Shi Chen and came in, and said with a smile: "The girl is embroidered?" ”
Qing'er handed her the narcissus and said, "There is Sister Lao, and it has been embroidered." ”
The maid took a small sample of embroidery like a veil, took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but praise: "What a wonderful embroidery method." Although this narcissus is simple, it is rare that you have the heart to distinguish the buds in the old stem so carefully. ”
"Sister Xie's compliment." Qing'er smiled slightly, "The hour has come, and I ask my sister to lead the way and go to see the master." ”
The maid smiled: "Exactly, I almost forgot about this stubble, go quickly, the master of the province is in a hurry." While speaking, he had quickly packed up his things, turned left with Qing'er when he went out, and passed through the corridor into a moon cave door.
The maid took Qing'er over and said, "Master, Miss Wang's work has been done." ”
"Oh?" Master Deng smiled and said, "Quickly bring it to Gongzi and take a closer look." ”
When the maid heard this, she hurriedly took out the embroidered handkerchief from the basket and sent it to the white-robed boy with both hands. On the side, Qing'er pursed her lips and stared at Gongzi nervously. I saw that he turned over the embroidered handkerchief and looked at it a few times, and then looked at the stitches and colors, and only after a while put the embroidered handkerchief back in the basket, shook the fan and smiled: "Sure enough, she is a master of art and bold, this girl really can't be underestimated by my generation." ”
In a word, Master Deng was also curious, and he hurriedly took the handkerchief and looked at it, and nodded for a long time: "It's also a little interesting to look at the old man, son, are you satisfied this time?" ”
"Satisfied, there is nothing more satisfying than this." The white-robed boy raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Lord Deng, if this matter is successful, your credit will be the greatest." ”
"Hey, where did Childe say?"
Lord Deng waved his hand humbly, and said with a polite smile: "The greatest credit is still you, Zheng Gongzi, if the prince still needs help in the future, Zheng Gongzi just orders, and the lower officials will do their best to serve the prince and the son." ”
Zheng Gongzi smiled, but no longer answered, just said to the maid: "Go and call my little servant, pass my word to him, and say that he has found the needle master, and ask him to hand things in." ”
"Yes."
The maid left in response, and after a while, a young man in a green coat and a small hat came in, knelt down on one knee and said, "Master, the villain brought what you wanted." ”
Zheng Gongzi said, "Get up and speak." ”
The little servant agreed, stood up, and listened to him again: "Show the things to Miss Wang, and I will speak after reading them." ”
The little girl then opened the silk wrapper that he had brought over, revealing a scroll, carefully unfolding the scroll, and motioning for Qing'er to take a look. Qing'er didn't know what was drawn on it, so she hurriedly leaned over and glanced at the change in her bluffed complexion, but she couldn't believe it, and she looked at it a second time. The nails were secretly scratching the palms underneath, and the pain reminded her that she was not dreaming, and the person in the painting was undoubtedly Sister Qiao. In the painting, Sister Qiao's black hair is like a waterfall, scattered on her shoulders, and the fine black mesh scarf she usually wears falls next to her cloth shoes, and her face is indescribably terrifying.
Looking at the arch bridge at the foot of the foot, it is undoubtedly the one at the head of the village, but when did this happen? And who drew this picture, he ...... What exactly is the purpose? Could it be that someone from the capital found this place?
The thoughts in his mind were mixed, because he was carrying Master Deng and Zheng Gongzi behind his back, and he lowered his head at the moment, and the expression on Qing'er's face was not noticed for a while. After staring at it for a moment, Zheng Gongzi asked behind her, "How is it, if this painting is embroidered, is it easy?" ”
Qing'er bit her lower lip lightly, understanding that it was not appropriate to show clues at this moment, and looked at the person in the painting again, Fang turned around and replied in a low voice: "Although figure embroidery is not common, it is rare to have ready-made patterns, but it is also easy." ”
Zheng Gongzi nodded with a smile, and Master Deng hurriedly followed: "How long will it take?" ”
Qing'er calculated and said bravely: "If you don't talk about it, you have to spend more than a month." ”
"The months are too long." Zheng Gongzi suddenly said loudly, "In my opinion, according to your strength in embroidering narcissus, this painting will only be completed in half a month, what does the girl think?" ”
"I ......" Qing'er rolled her eyes and said, "Dare to ask Childe, is this painting embroidered in a hurry, and who wants it?" ”
Zheng Gongzi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his hand and chuckled: "There is no need to ask more about this, if it is certain in a hurry." Don't worry, after the deed is completed, the reward will be indispensable to you. ”
"Gongzi Xie."
Qing'er Yingying bowed, thinking to herself, it was better to go back first, and ask Qiao'er what she meant. So he didn't ask any more, took the burden in the hands of the little guy, and went out of the yamen.
Only Ban'er was still outside, and when he saw Qing'er coming out, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Why did you go for so long, why did you go?" ”
Qing'er covered her mouth and sighed, turned her head to see that Qiao'er was not there, frowned, grabbed Ban'er's arm and said, "Where is Sister Qiao?" Why are you alone? ”
Ban'er was stunned for a moment, and then pointed to the direction of home and said, "Fang is a little uncomfortable, I told her to go back and rest." ”
Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the board and said, "Brother let's go, I'll tell you more when I go back." With that, the brother and sister went straight home. When she returned home, Qiao'er heard that her grandmother was going to carry water, so she got up and helped her carry it together. The two of them were busy working, and Qing'er Ban'er said when she got in: "Grandma and the girl should be put down, I'm tired of you, let's just carry water." ”
So saying, Ban'er rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward, brought water up from the well, and copied some water to wash his face.
Grandma Liu smiled and asked, "Did the notice go back?" ”
Ban'er pursed her lips and was about to speak, but she didn't dare to say it, so she went to see Qing'er and Qiao'er's expressions, and saw that she both shook their heads, and then said: "The notice has been posted elsewhere, grandma can rest assured." ”
Grandma didn't speak, and told them to clean up all the things in the yard, and then went to the stove room to boil water. As soon as Qing'er saw her grandmother walking away, she hurriedly pulled Ban'er Qiao'er and said, "Brother and sister come with me." ”
When the three of them entered the room, Qing'er unfolded the burden, took out the scroll, and showed it to Qiao'er and Ban'er. As expected, both of them were shocked and hurriedly asked her, "Where did you get this painting?" ”
Qing'er then told everything about what happened after entering the inner office, Qiao'er and Ban'er were surprised, Ban'er looked at the painting carefully, and felt familiar, so she asked Qiao'er: "Sister can you remember when this happened?" ”
Qiao'er had already seen that it was the incident that collided with Hongxi Shizi for no reason, and she couldn't hide it anymore, so she told her about the temple fair of the Eastern Holy Emperor. Ban'er vaguely remembered that there was such a thing, and it was strange that Qiao'er fell off the bridge that day, and it was to escape.
Thinking of this, Ban'er took the scroll and said categorically, "Why don't we burn this so that they won't find their sister again." ”
Qiao'er was funny and helpless: "I burned this one, but my brother didn't know that they couldn't draw the second one?" ”
"This ......," Ban'er stammered, threw the scroll on the table depressedly, and said, "What should I do according to my sister's meaning?" (To be continued.) (To be continued.) )
