Grandma Liu listened to the clouds and was busy saying: "What is everyone's embroidery workshop, why don't I understand what the girl said." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Qing'er walked over with a smile, grabbed her grandmother's sleeve and said: "What's so difficult to understand, my sister said that she would take me to do some embroidery workshops for others, just like Miss Du is in charge of Du Xiu Villa, Ming'er and I are also deacons, and we can also make embroidery to supplement the family, grandma, do you say it's okay?" ”

"Yo, that's the thing?" Grandma Liu's eyes widened, and she looked directly at Qiao'er and said, "Girl, whose embroidery workshop is it, I have lived in Baishui Village for more than ten years, why haven't I heard that there is an embroidery workshop in the town?" ”

Qiao'er laughed and said: "They were originally eunuchs, and they just wanted to open up this embroidery workshop, just like when we were in Jiafu, didn't the third aunt also open up the garden and divide it into several purposes?" Because of the cheapness of home, it has never been opened to the public, so grandma has never heard of it. It's just that now the adult is going to Beijing, and the embroidery workshop is idle there, but it just so happens that I have this craft, so I handed it over to me, but I bought and sold silk to make some needlework, and I didn't have to worry about anything else. ”

Grandma Liu seemed to have an understanding, so she nodded in agreement. When the dog and his wife came to the house, Qiao'er and the others said these words to his husband and wife, and the dog has the most fame and fortune, and there is no reason not to agree when he sees that there is a bargain. Wang Liu saw that his grandmother and the dog had agreed, and he was a little reluctant but also became willing, just told Qing'er to be safer, and stop telling people to calculate like before.

After eating, Qiao'er unfolded the file and looked at it carefully, all the acres of Dicui Garden were put aside for the time being, only looked at the houses in the garden, and Qing'er selected a Douchun Hall facing south of the main entrance of the second courtyard as an embroidery workshop according to the pattern, and ordered the ear room next door as a warehouse. Qing'er was anxious, thinking that Fang Ruolan should be at home at the moment, so she came to the door in the evening to invite her.

Qiao'er originally intended to wait for a while, wait until everything was settled, and then bring someone over, and she was not familiar with that Fang Ruolan, so she was somewhat worried. Qing'er came up with an idea because she said that she wanted to deal with her sister's affairs properly, so she simply asked Qiao'er to worship Fang Ruolan as her sister, and at that time, she only said that it was from a relative's family, Qiao'er thought that this plan was feasible, so she went with Qing'er.

Let's say that Fang Ruolan heard that a new embroidery workshop had opened in the town, and it was more fair than Du Xiu Villa, so she really happily agreed, and followed Qing'er back to Wang's house to meet Qiao'er.

Qiao'er saw that she was wearing a pink shirt covered with snow-green bamboo branches and flowers, and tied a lake crepe belt of the same color, with a generous personality, quiet and elegant speech, quite the style of the mandarin duck back then, she couldn't help but like it a little, and hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "Hello sister." ”

Fang Ruolan hurriedly said Wanfu, looking at Qiao'er's clothes and posture, she didn't know how much stronger than the men in the Zhuangzi she had seen, and she was also very happy, and hurriedly said, "Brother, good." ”

Qing'er saw that the two of them were very happy to see each other, and suddenly felt that she had done a big thing, and proudly hooked Qiao'er's wrist and said, "How is it, is this sister I found for you satisfied?" ”

Qiao'er's face was slightly red, and she also smiled: "It's naturally good to have my sister as a guarantor." ”

Qing'er chuckled, took Fang Ruolan's hand and said to her: "This is my uncle's brother, his scientific name is Liu Tianqiao, and it is he that my sister and I talked about." Brother was our Zhou Fu Uncle Fu companion reading, because recently Uncle Fu was in the Jinshi, to visit the teacher, brother has nothing to do to respond to the embroidery workshop errand, no one is missing, only the lack of embroidery, if the sister goes, there is no reason to treat the sister badly. ”

Fang Ruolan listened and said: "I believe in my brother, but wherever I can be used, my brother and sister Qing'er just have to say it." ”

Qiao'er nodded, seeing that she was so refreshing, she liked it more and more. The three of them discussed in the courtyard the various colors of silk and needlework bandages that needed to be added. When Ban'er came back, he saw that their discussion was rising, and asked if there was anything he needed help with. Qiao'er said no, and said: "The first two days are the busiest, and I have to tidy up the house, and I have to buy needles and threads, etc., and I am afraid that the family will not be able to take care of it, and Brother Lao will take care of it more." ”

Ban'er smiled: "This is easy to say, as long as your idea is good, you don't have to worry about it at home." ”

After a moment of discussion, Qiao'er took Qing'er Fang Ruolan to Dicui Garden the next day. Because he was afraid of revealing his mouth, he didn't enter through the main entrance, and Fu An sent someone out and took a few of them into through the corner door of the backyard. After asking which house Qiao'er wanted, Fu An sent a team of maids over to listen to the dispatch, but he led people to lock up all the courtyards that were not used.

Qing'er and Fang Ruolan followed behind Qiao'er, walking all the way and looking all the way, their intuition was dazzling, and after chattering for a while, she said a quick look at the duck in the water, and for a while she shouted to look at the flower, startled, and told Qiao'er who was walking in front of her to live in peace. I had to tell them one by one that the water was a mandarin duck and the flower was a canna.

When she arrived at Douchun Hall, Qing'er was even more surprised, it is said that she also lived in Jiafu, and she saw everything that she could see and couldn't see, and when she arrived in the garden, she felt that she had seen it before was just a fairyland on earth, and what she saw at this moment was the Heavenly Yao Pond. I only saw that the Douchun Hall opened the door in the bright room, and the second room was a glass window. The ceiling is a double crane pattern, the inner eaves are decorated with a spindle color painting, the indoor square bricks are on the ground, the endless carved beams and paintings are built, and the splendid splendor that can not be seen is endless.

It was the calm Fang Ruolan, who was also stunned at the moment, glanced at Dou Chuntang, and then at Qiao'er, but didn't believe it was true.

Qiao'er was amused for a while, and pulled the two of them into the east room and said: "I see that there are sill windows here, transparent and bright, it is better to leave this place as a place for needlework, and after the yard is cleaned up, I will make another plan." ”

Fang Ruolan hurriedly nodded and said yes, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that such a good place is used as an embroidery workshop." ”

Qiao'er snorted and sneered: "What's the pity, why doesn't my sister want to think about the cruelty of Zhongliang and the evildoers, if you also live in such a house, it is a pity." Now we use him to do things seriously, and that's the beauty of it. ”

Fang Ruolan's face turned red when she said it, and after thinking about it, she felt reasonable.

Let's say that Fu An made proper arrangements in the front yard, because he saw that Dou Chuntang entered the courtyard before and after, and it was expected that Qiao'er and a few people could not clean it up immediately, so he asked someone to bring ten palace ladies who had served Prince He over and listened to her orders.

Qiao'er was not polite, so she really ordered the troops and arranged them immediately. Four or five people were called to sweep the inside and outside of the house, and three or four were called to place tables and chairs, and the rest were sent to receive the cloth and silk that had been delivered.

Let's not talk about Qiao'er's An faction, these ten palace ladies in a single way are all pink satin embroidered with double butterflies, and Luo skirt dances. A willow waist tactful, eyebrows lightly swept, are superior, Qiao'er in the past in the house has also met a few times, the road is and the prince's favored maid, no one dares to provoke, every day only in the garden or fluttering butterflies playing, or playing swings for fun, should work their own rough maid busy work. Now that he and the prince were in a hurry to Beijing, they didn't have time to take these many people with them, and they stayed in the garden if they had to come back in more than a month. Now Fu An asked them to come over with thousands of invitations, thinking that it was just a trivial matter, but he didn't want to listen to the assignment of this unknown kid, so he was naturally unhappy. You look at me, I look at you, it's all her mind that if she doesn't move, I won't move.

Qiao'er waited for a while, and when she saw that no one moved, she thought that she couldn't say it clearly, so she repeated it again.

The palace ladies below took their shoulders together, listening to Qiao'er's words while laughing to themselves: "Where did the little thing come from, I have to get up after seeing the world a few times?" I have also learned to instruct people, and I don't weigh my own pounds, is there anyone here who you can instruct? ”

"That's it, the world is really not as good as before, cats and dogs can be on the stage."

"Hmph, the prince just gave him an embroidery needle, but it was also used as a mallet."

"You ......" Qing'er heard them so unforgiving behind Qiao'er, her angry fists clenched, and she couldn't help but take a step under her feet, and she was about to rush up to judge them.

Qiao'er saw it in the afterglow, and was busy holding her hand below, and shook her head silently.

Qing'er couldn't stop her steps, and a pair of apricot eyes stared at the dozen or so women opposite. Qiao'er took a few deep breaths, forced down the resentment in her chest, and made a silent gesture to the end, got up and smiled: "Originally, I didn't dare to work for my sisters to help, but since it was arranged like this by Butler Fu, the villain naturally couldn't push it back." I wonder if my sisters have ever heard the story of Sun Wu's beheading of his concubine in ancient times? ”

"No, I didn't." Gong E, who looked particularly outstanding inside, looked at him with a smile and said, "There are many people who want to tell us stories, but none of them are complete." What, does the little brother want to follow in their footsteps? ”

"The villain doesn't dare." Qiao'er was still smiling, but her eyes were cold when she looked at Gong E, and they were lined with the jade face outlined by pen and ink, almost making it impossible for people to look directly. Gong E was shocked in her heart, restrained her smile slightly, and only heard Qiao'er say: "This story says that in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the king of Wu was a rich country and a strong army, and recruited talents. In order to avoid the disaster of war, Sun Wu, a native of Qi, traveled to Wu State. During his seclusion in Wu, he studied the art of war diligently, and after years of hard work, he finally compiled the Art of War and waited for the opportunity to realize his ambitions.

Wu Wang Lu read "The Art of War" and admired it very much, and praised Sun Wu for his outstanding talent and a rare talent. King Wu wanted to personally investigate his actual talents, so he summoned Sun Wu. King Wu said to him, "Can you try the training method for me to see?" Sun Wu said, "Yes." King Wu then asked, "Can your training methods be applied to women?" Sun Wu replied: "Yes." ”

So King Wu picked out one hundred and eighty palace maids and handed them to Sun Wu. Sun Wu organized them into two teams, selected King Wu's two favorite concubines, and served as captains, so that they both stood in front of the team with halberds. Sun Wu said to Concubine Mei and the palace maid, "Do you all know the position of your front heart, left and right hands, and back?" The beautiful concubine and the palace maids said, "Yes." Sun Wu said: "Go forward, just look in the direction of the front heart; To the left, look in the direction of the left hand; To the right, look in the right-hand direction; Backwards, just look at the direction of the back. Everything is based on the sound of the drum, do you understand?" They all said, "Yes." Sun Wu had already made a decision, and ordered his soldiers to carry out the big axe of military law, and pointed to the big axe to repeatedly explain the discipline of the army, and those who violated it were beheaded.

The war drums beat, and Sun Wu gave the order to turn to the right. The beautiful concubine and the palace maid not only did not listen to the order, but laughed grinningly. Sun Wu said: "The restraints are unclear, the orders are not familiar, and this time the general should be in charge." So he repeated the explanation. Then the drum was beaten again, and the command to the left was given. The beautiful concubines and the palace maids laughed again. Sun Wu said: "The essentials of discipline and action have been clearly explained, and everyone has made it clear, but they still do not obey orders, which is a deliberate violation of military discipline." The captain who takes the lead in violating military discipline shall be dealt with in accordance with military law. So, he ordered to behead the captains of the left and right, and King Wu was horrified when he saw that he was going to kill his favorite concubine on Wangyuntai, and hurriedly issued an order: "I have learned the general's skill in military training, I don't have these two concubines, I can't eat, please don't kill them!" Sun Wu said: "Since I have been appointed as a general and a general in the army, I will not be subject to the king's orders. "Immediately behead the two captains together. He appointed two other concubines as captains to continue the exercises. At this time, the drum command is issued again, whether it is left, right, forward, backward, kneeling, or standing, all obey the order, and it is serious and in accordance with the requirements. When Sun Wu saw that the coach was in order, he sent someone to report to King Wu and said, "The soldiers have been trained, please review them." These two groups of soldiers can be commanded at will, and even if they are called into the water and fire, they will not disobey their orders. King Wu lost his two concubines, and he was very unhappy, and said with a wry smile: "Okay, the general should go back to the house to rest!" I don't want to review it. After the incident, Sun Wu first apologized to King Wu, and then stated the reason for beheading the concubine: "The order is prohibited, and the rewards and punishments are clear, which is a common law for soldiers and a general rule for generals to govern the army; Only when the three armies abide by discipline and law and obey orders can they defeat the enemy. "After listening to Sun Wu's explanation, King Wu's anger dissipated, so he abandoned the hatred of beheading his concubine and worshipped Sun Wu as a general." (To be continued.) )
