The simple and beautiful embroidery method mentioned at the beginning of the summer is called cushion embroidery by the world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In fact, this is a tricky technique, it is before embroidery, the cotton yarn is padded on the pattern and pattern, and then embroidered on it, and it has a three-dimensional sense of relief after embroidery.

Because of the filler, the stitching method of cushion embroidery is relatively simple, and there are many changes such as Suzhou embroidery and Hunan embroidery, but as long as the embroidery is smooth, Xia Bangqiu's craftsmanship can also make pleasing patterns - the female red in recent years has not been practiced in vain, but it looks dull, not as delicate as others, and the basic skills are still there.

The daughter of the Xia family learned Gu embroidery on weekdays, it originated in the south of the Yangtze River, according to legend, it was created by the hermit Gu clan patriarch's wife Han, Han is good at painting and embroidering, copying and embroidering ancient and modern famous paintings are particularly wonderful, so it is also called Han Yuan embroidery. She embroidered finely, with a needle skillfully, Gu's descendants inherited this embroidery, and the apprentices passed on the art, passed down from generation to generation, and there were several improvements, which became today's Gu embroidery.

Gu embroidery has the softness and grace of Jiangnan embroidery women, the painting style is fresh and flowing, and it has the beauty of plain clothes, so it has also won the love of the ladies in Beijing, and it is very popular in the Jingbei generation, and the Xia family is to follow the trend.

The cushion embroidery is much simpler, and there is not so much exquisiteness, Xia Chu taught Xia Bangqiu once, and she can basically get started.

Xia Bangqiu is like a child who has got a new toy, first take a simple exercise, embroider a flower and come to share it with Xia Chu, and let her see her progress...... Seeing her so excited, Xia Chu felt funny, cushion embroidery is not a sophisticated technique, but it is a trick and pleasing, and serious embroiderers don't like it very much.

Fortunately, she was already very patient, and Xia Bangqiu could talk all afternoon by herself, which made her house a lot more lively, and even the maids added a little vitality, not so dull, so she went.

"Second girl, third girl, there are distinguished guests in the house, the old lady asks the two girls to hurry over." The two girls were burying their heads in needlework, but Chaoyun in the old lady's house came to pass the word.

At the beginning of summer, he looked at each other with Xia Bangqiu.

Looking up at the sky outside, it was already early afternoon, the hottest time of summer, who would go out to visit others at this time?

And it is also a "distinguished guest".

Being able to let Luo Ziqian's side run to call people at this time, it can be seen that the identity of this distinguished guest is something that Luo Ziqian does not dare to slacken...... She is the mother of the third-grade master, and she is an old feudal lord with the title of second-rank edict given by the imperial court, and ordinary people really don't dare to put any identity in front of her.

Who is it?

In the Church of Mercy and Harmony, Luo Ziqian was chatting with a young woman in her twenties.

Of course, there was no topic between the two of them, but a few granddaughters-in-law of the family talked with her, so as not to be cold, and occasionally if the woman talked to her, she would also talk to her, but most of the time, she just listened with a smile.

Although he had a smile on his face, the smile did not enter his eyes.

The young woman was born with a round face, born with a pair of moon eyes, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked and seemed to be full of smiles. A plain long skirt is not luxurious, but the material is not worn by ordinary people - it is a tribute feather satin, and the number is very small, and the ladies in the palace may not see it.

Wu and the two daughters-in-law were very enthusiastic with her, although Mei was also there, but they were in the last seat, but they were less than Luo Ziqian's mouth, and this was the case from the moment she entered the door.

Mei recognized this woman, she was the second lady of the Yasukuni Mansion, and she was also the daughter-in-law of the current emperor, the concubine of the Nine Emperors, An.

The princess naturally has the dignity and dignity of the princess, that is, she has been working hard to show her approachable side, but it also looks full of momentum, so that people dare not offend.

The Nine Emperor Princesses are probably the most comfortable among the princesses.

The Yasukuni Mansion has been noble for generations, not to mention holding great power, but she has an elder brother who commands the Yulin Army, which is highly valued today. And she not only has two sons under her knees, but the eldest son is also born by her, although there are also concubines and concubines at the bottom, but the eldest son of the Nine Emperors attaches great importance to the eldest son, and he asked for the title of the prince at a young age, and the surroundings are as solid as an iron bucket.

The Nine Emperor Princes have the common problem that most men have, they love some colors, while the Nine Emperor Princesses can only be said to be delicate and cute, but they are not stunning! However, the Nine Emperor Princes respect him very much, and will never give her no face, let alone a concubine who dares to rely on his favor to oppose her!

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and I almost can't recognize my cousin." The Nine Emperor Princesses said with a smile, and then looked at An Shi beside her. The An clan and the Yasukuni Mansion are relatives, but they are far apart. Later, after marrying into the capital, he never contacted the Yasukuni Mansion, and the two families slowly faded away.

This time, the Nine Emperor Princesses are under the banner of reminiscence.

But An Shi knew very well in her heart, don't look at her calling her cousin, in fact, the two of them have never met a few times!

How many years has she been married, and she didn't ask again after the Yasukuni Mansion sent a congratulatory gift, but at this time, as the 'An family' of the Nine Emperor Princesses, suddenly visited the Xia family, which is really strange.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that that's just a pretext.

"yes, it's been a long time." An Shi smiled quietly, "How are the hall uncle and the aunt?" I've been out there for a few years, and I haven't even visited them, which is rude. ”

"I may not have been home for a long time, I don't know very much, but I only saw my mother occasionally, and she didn't mention it, so it should be fine." The Nine Emperor Princesses shook her head, remembering that she hadn't been home for a long time, and she couldn't help but be a little stunned, but she quickly laughed.

An smiled, a little stunned in his heart.

The Yasukuni Mansion is in Beijing, and although she is also a relative, she is always not as close as her own family. The Nine Emperor Princesses can occasionally see their mother, but her home is in Shuzhong, and the days of going home for many years are indeed numbered.

Although this is also a complaint against her, she has a body within a year of marrying in Beijing, and she accidentally lost her baby and damaged her body during the New Year's Festival, so she is naturally not suitable for long-distance travel. When he was ready to go back to see it, her husband let her go.

An's wife naturally followed him.

In the first three years, I often went back to my parents' house, but I just watched the children of my mother's family were greedy, and I heard my sisters-in-law always talk about her miscarriage, coupled with the inconvenience of going back and forth, I gradually didn't like to go back, and only waited for the New Year to go on a trip.

There are many rights and wrongs in big families, and once women's minds are not aligned, they are prone to contradictions.

Later, I finally became pregnant with Sister Rong, but the pregnancy was not good, and it took two years of rest after giving birth to a child to recover, and I was still in office.

Who knows, this release will be nine years? After three consecutive releases, not to mention An's family, Xia Xuan didn't have time to take care of going home, and she didn't worry that her husband was alone in the mansion, so she stayed with her.

The relationship between the husband and wife has always been very good, and she is reluctant to let him be alone.

Even Sister Rong was raised by her mother-in-law in the capital, and later became pregnant with their eldest son, Brother Lu, and she didn't see her for a long time.

An's took both children with him.

Raising a child is a hard job, and there is no one who can help in office, and he is busy spinning like a top all day long, where can he take care of going back to his parents' house?

It is said that the water spilled by the married daughter may also be in it for this reason.

Xia Xuan's term of office expired last year, and she was mentally prepared, but she did not receive the appointment of transfer, so the husband and wife returned home with a pair of children, and An An was waiting for the above arrangements in Beijing.

This year, An went back to her parents' house, but she felt a lot stranger with her family, which made her feel a little sad.

Fortunately, a family is a family after all, so how can parents blame their children? Seeing her thoughts, her mother persuaded her a lot before she could make her happy!

"Uncle and aunt have always been tough, so you don't have to worry too much." Ahn laughed.

The Nine Emperor Princesses responded with a smile.

After saying a few more words, Xia Chu and Xia Bangqiu entered the house, Luo Ziqian gave the Wu family a color, and the Wu family introduced them for them, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the Nine Emperor Princesses are still the relatives of Brother Lu's mother!" ”

"I've seen the princess and concubine." Xia Chu and Xia Bangqiu hurriedly greeted each other.

The Nine Emperor Princesses hurriedly gave a handful of help and said with a smile: "The two younger sisters don't have to be polite, they are all their own family." ”

…… Ordinary people don't dare to climb relatives with the princess, especially people like the Xia family.

It's just that it's not easy to refute this, Xia Chu smiled faintly, which was considered a response, and then heard her look at the two of them and said with some doubts: "Which of you is the sister?" ”

Xia Bangqiu hurriedly said: "Back to the princess and concubine, I am my sister." ”

"Are you going to do two?" The Nine Emperor Princesses glanced at Xia Bangqiu, looked at Xia Chu again, and said with a smile: "It's the younger sister who looks higher." ”

…… Is there such a thing as height that she can control?

Xia Bangqiu was a little embarrassed, she also knew that she was now a five-short figure...... In her previous life, she felt short at 1.65 meters, but now, she is a little dwarf about 1.5 meters!

Is...... Sad.

Looking at the beginning of Xia, who was almost half a head taller than himself, Xia Bangqiu became more and more depressed...... Even in ancient times, her height was definitely not tall, at most she stood out from the crowd.

Xia Chu didn't realize what it was, even if the Nine Emperor Princesses opened her mouth like this, she just listened with a light smile.

**

In the evening, the Nine Emperor Princesses left the Xia Mansion, and Luo Ziqian politely left her for dinner, but she still didn't stay long before leaving.

Xia Bangqiu was a little confused.

She knew that the Nine Emperor Princes were also the powerful heirs to the throne, and as a wife, it was normal for the Nine Emperor Princesses to help him fight for the throne. It's just that she should have come to recruit the Xia family today, right? Why didn't you just say a word and leave? Or did they talk about it before they arrived at Ciho Hall?

The doubts on her face were too straightforward, which made Luo Ziqian laugh and asked, "Sister Qiu, are you curious, what is the Nine Emperor Princesses doing today?" ”

Xia Bangqiu nodded silently.

"First girl, you can talk to her!" Luo Ziqian shook his head and said.

Xia Chu glanced at her, and when she saw that Luo Ziqian gave her a color, she understood what she meant, so she said: "Second sister should know, she is not in good health these days, and she has been in a coma again......"

She had heard the news, after all, it had spread all over the outside, even if the news in the inner house was not well-informed, but she would not even be unable to detect it, and she had been concerned about the affairs in the palace, and specially asked people to inquire, but it was earlier than they knew.

"It's not that the Seventh Prince invited a divine doctor into the palace......" When talking about the divine doctor, Xia Bangqiu was in a trance, and suddenly remembered the previous time when he went to Wu's house to visit Wu Qingyun who fell into the water.

That is, the miracle doctor in Beijing tried it, and Wu Qingyun was fine.

And before and after opening your eyes, it's like two people!

Now that the heroine has hooked up with the second prince?

Xia Bangqiu couldn't imagine how the heroine in the plot got in love with the second prince? She hasn't been banned now, but she usually doesn't leave the house to go outside, let alone meet a man, even if she has an appointment, she may not be able to meet!

The Nine Emperor Princesses said: "The divine doctor is also a healer, and he can't save his life if he is in an emergency." ”

No matter how powerful the doctor is, he doesn't dare to fight for his life with Lord Yama

In other words, it's really hard to get any better today, right?

Xia Bangqiu's eyes widened, and he looked a little surprised.

The next words, if Xia Chu didn't say it, she could guess it.

The Nine Emperor Princesses came to the Xia family for no reason, and they still chose this time to come, if they said that it was okay, no one would believe it.

The Nine Emperors should have a heart for the Xia family, so it can be regarded as a temptation for his wife to take such a trip through the An family.

It's all something we know by heart, but we just don't say it.

Of course, this is also for outsiders to see, no matter whether Xia Yan will agree to stand on the side of the Nine Emperor Princes at that time, but at least the posture should be put out, maybe there is still a little bit of caution, deliberately making people think that the Xia family is on the side of the Nine Emperor Princes.

Although these rumors will disappear sooner or later, as if they won't have much impact, once this happens, the Xia family's position will become very embarrassing. And even when asked, he couldn't explain.

This is a somewhat simple and crude but most direct method.

"Since you understand everything, I won't explain it." Xia Chu smiled and said, "In the future, I can't say that the Nine Emperor Princesses will come to the door, and the second sister just hides." ”

Xia Bangqiu nodded.

However, surprisingly, the post of the Nine Emperor Princesses did not wait, but Xia Chu and Xia Bangqiu received the post from Luo Wangfu first.

But this time, the person who posted it was not Zhao Yanran, but the step-concubine of King Luo.

This summer is almost over, why do you still have a flower viewing feast? (To be continued.) )
