Chapter 311: Teaching and Learning (2)
The fabric art course of teaching the grandmothers has been deepened step by step. It is becoming more and more difficult to make sachets, and it is becoming more and more beautiful and exquisite. In addition to siu mai bags, sack bags, round bags, diamond-shaped bags, there are heart-shaped bags, fish-shaped bags, Miaojia bags, lock-shaped bags, zongzi bags, pomegranate bags, pumpkin bags, tiger head bags, peony bags, double fish bags, Ping'an bags, etc., and so on. The girls and grandmothers who participated in the supply of goods from the "Nalan Department Store" were going crazy and busy. This is a great skill, not only can you make money now, but also in the future, even if you leave the palace, it will also be a money-making skill! It turned out that the girls and grandmothers who still wanted to wait and see, all signed up. Master Yun not only taught skills, but also distributed tools and materials for doing work, all of which were not available in the Qing Dynasty.
The products of all the girls and grandmothers in the house were quickly sold out, and the profits were returned to the husband, and after strict calculation and distribution, the average income of each maid and grandmother was between three hundred and four hundred. But it makes them so happy.
Yehenara, who voluntarily withdrew, regretted it very much when he heard that he was really paid, and begged him with a shy face to rejoin the army of fabric-processing art. Yan'er is so easy to speak: "Mama Ye has turned the processing of fabrics into your family's business or does it regard it as a city gate?" Come as you want, go as you want? You broke all the tools issued by the cloud master, and I haven't asked you to compensate yet. ”
"Mama is willing to pay! It's just that you are asking for a favor for Mama, Mama is now taking a rough monthly example, I really want to save some money, and I almost said "save a dowry for my daughter" for ......, and quickly brake the brake. She also thought that dying of exhaustion could only earn three or five cents a day, and empiricism killed people.
The manager also gave Ye He silver, but Ye He always felt that it was earned as a **, and one hand of money and one hand of goods was not as clean as processing fabrics. It's okay, a little bit ashamed. She and Nafeng are holding each other back, Nafeng needs her youth to fill the void, and Ye He needs Nafeng's position as the head of the mountain as a backer.
After saying good things about three thousand six, the beard didn't pay attention to her at all. In the end, I had no choice but to bribe and quietly give a silver ingot of ten taels to the mantle. There is no shortage of silver at all, she has a monthly case of five taels of silver every month, and there are rewards from Fujin from time to time. It was to kill Ye He's prestige and accept it. Said to Ye He: "I am not rare in your silver, but you destroyed the tools issued by Master Yun, and you don't have any household belongings in your hands, so I will use this silver to buy tools for you."
Afraid that Yun'er would not agree, she bought a set of tools from Yun'er and lost a set of tools from Mama Zheng's door. The ten taels of silver in his hand will be reimbursed.
This time, Ye He was a devout learner, and his ears were longer than a rabbit when he listened to the class. She also knows that she has to rely on herself in everything, and she must not leak out the affairs of the manager. Try to play the little transparent in front of everyone. Learn various skills very low-key.
The demand for consumables is getting bigger and bigger, Tian Liang and Nalan have to help Yun'er find the auxiliary materials for making sachets from the cardboard boxes in the hall every day, the brocade from the wooden boxes in the hall, and the cloth heads in the pile of Xiaoli cloth heads. In addition to serving as a teaching mother, Yu'er Shui'er also has to take the three second-class maids and two third-class maids of Feiyun Building to cut the working materials into uniform-sized cloths for the girls and grandmothers in Feiyunlou, so that the size of the sachet will be very uniform and neat. There is a bunch of tassels under the exotic sachets, some of which are of uneven length, and they are also said to be "messy and beautiful". Does messy things have an aesthetic appeal? Yun'er disagreed. Anyway, the sachets in the hands of the girls and grandmothers under her rule must cut the bottom of the tassel tassels neatly, and the clouds of uneven length will "snap!" I threw it back to a processor and reworked it and was not polite at all.
Yu'er and other seven little sisters cut the silk to make sachets into a uniform size, and all kinds of ancillary materials were prepared according to the quota, including colored beads, rhinestones, colored teeth, and colored tapestry, etc., and distributed to the processors in time. All the girls and grandmothers involved in the processing of fabric products have their own "unit" roster, receiving materials, the name, content, and number of processed finished products. Under the management of Fujin and Yun'er, there is no chaos.
The Dragon Boat Festival is getting closer and closer, and more than 3,000 exotic style sachets must be made before the festival and put on the market. The people who buy these things are not all ordinary people, but also large families.
During this period, Shui'er tried to make a small flower that could be sewn on the siu mai bag with nylon yarn, which she used to make with a leftover nylon yarn, and it would be a pity to throw it away. It is to tighten the nylon yarn on one side first, then sew it on the siu mai bag, and then fix the sewing tightly round and round, which is the same as the carnation sewn with ribbons, and the effect is very good! The effect of real flowers is produced. Shui'er was never publicized, and quietly showed it to Yun'er.
Yun'er praised Shui'er very happily: "Smart enough!" Then he gave Shui'er two pieces of cloth as a reward, and Shui'er's mouth couldn't be closed. She gave the fish a piece of the cloth that her master had given her, because so did the fish when they were rewarded.
Almost at the same time as the water, the fish used two groups of hook flowers in a group of four, added thickness in the middle, hooked together, and installed a belt, decorated with beads, and became a small bag larger than the purse and smaller than the bag held by the exotic girl, which was lined with brightly colored lining, and set off the white flowers very watery, which was so cute! Although this kind of small bag already exists in foreign lands, but the Qing Dynasty does not have it, what the fish has figured out by itself is original, too smart!
Yun'er didn't say a word, and gave each of the two little sisters a reward: a pack of eight pairs of snow-white thin nylon socks, which felt a little velvety. There are also two large pieces of nylon yarn, as well as ten balls of crocheted white thread and two alloy begonia flower jewelry, as well as a piece of Lux brand soap and Dabao brand moisturizer honey, which made Yu'er Shui Er smile happily. Where have they ever seen anything like this? In fact, the prince already had these things in the gift to Tian Liang, and the two of them were too busy to look at them.
"Master, how should you wear the socks you gave to your slaves?" Yu'er humbly asked for advice, and Yun'er almost fell into anger:
"You won't even wear socks anymore? I wore this as I wore it before. ”
"Slaves and maids are reluctant to wear them."
"Then keep it and let it mold on its own."
The women of the Qing Dynasty came from civilian families and wore socks made of white cloth, and no matter how hot the weather was, they could not show their feet. The women of large families use silk to make socks, which cannot be compared with nylon socks. Daqing's socks can still play a role in keeping warm in winter, and they are almost suffocating in summer! When the fish came home at night, she tried it on, and it was very comfortable on her feet, close to the surface of her feet, without a little wrinkle, and elastic. In the end, I was reluctant to wear it. Give your daughter a dowry. The things that the master brought back are rarely the same, and they may not be the same in the future.
A few days later, the two of them had a new idea, and the handbag had an effect that was not exotic: the handbag was square, the strap on it was braided, and the pendant was a small pumpkin and watermelon made of cloth. They are all made of cloth of similar colors, and the handbag also has a long strip of cloth of the same thickness. They hadn't seen this kind of sample yet, so they thought about it, and it seemed that their brains were really not chaff. Not only did I make a new sample, but I also made a series.
Yun'er is overjoyed, and the rewards given this time are even more generous, a boxed bed sheet and a multi-purpose towel for each person. Among the gifts to Fu Jin was a box of bed sheets, which spoiled the fish and water, and for several days in a row I dreamed that the master rewarded the bed sheets. In fact, Yun'er had wanted to give them bed sheets for a long time, but she didn't know if there were any in the gifts. If you do, you will give one to each person. Yun'er gave them bed sheets of the best brand and quality. The pattern on it is so beautiful! On both sides are crimson, red, intermittent stripes, and in the middle are very realistic feathers and flowers, so bright and light. The feathers seem to have just fallen up, and the flowers seem to have just bloomed.
The two of them knelt in front of Yun'er at once, kowtowed to Yun'er, and said excitedly: "Thank you for the master's reward!" ”
"What are you doing, it's just a sheet, and if you like it, you can put it on when you go back."
"Slaves and maids are reluctant! Keep it for Rui'er as a dowry. ”
"It's too early, isn't it? Forget it, it's for you anyway, whatever you want. But the reward I give you had better be kept secret, or else you will have to become a household name and known to everyone, just like that colored bead. ”
"Slave Girl ......"
"Stop, stop, don't swear. Just go home at night and take it back and put it away. ”
Yu'er Shui Er couldn't help but open the sheets to see, this one is different from the previous one, more beautiful: the background color is light yellow, there are a few gorgeous peony flowers on it, and the edge is dark red, rose, and red color bars, and the dark one is on the outermost, so that it can suppress other colors. This sheet is also a gift from a number of manufacturers of bed sheets in Shanghai, and Shanghai's textiles are indeed leading in the country. The two little sisters liked something and hugged the sheet box tightly and smiled.
Yun'er said: "Sister Yu'er, Sister Shui'er, the sample made of the style you came up with by yourself is the Creative Award, which is a new kind of fabric imagined out of thin air, which is a kind of creation, is unique, and shows that you are very smart." But don't be too deliberate, don't think about what to create every day, keep thinking about it, your hair will turn gray. Yun'er knows that in the social environment of the Qing Dynasty, women's hearts are very small, and it is difficult to bear a little thing. So the life span of the ancients was very short, and it was because their self-esteem was too strong. For example, if a woman is bullied by a hooligan, the first thing she will do is to commit suicide. Exotic women are raped, and they rarely commit suicide. It's not that the exotic woman is too thick-skinned, it's that she knows it's not her fault at all. On the one hand, the phenomenon of palace fighting, house fighting, and house fighting is people's selfishness, they all want to be self-respecting, and they don't think about it for others, and the main reason is that they are too narrow-minded, and they will repay it, and when people stare at her, she will step on others. Of course, stepping on people is more affordable than staring at people, and the other party hurts. Then the step on may have to get worse, and think of a way to make the stepping on her more painful, so that it will get worse.
Fortunately, the atmosphere in the Ruiwang Mansion is very positive, and such vicious incidents are not allowed in the mansion. The small contradictions that come and go are suppressed by the master, and then the power of the master's example. Yun'er has always been a man's character, and after she recovers, she cares about the girl and mother who serves her, so Yu'er and Shui'er are not jealous of each other at all. Jealousy is terrible, anything can be done, and there are also murders.
The grandmothers came to Yun'er to take classes the next day, and on the day they didn't go to class, they taught the skills they had learned to the girls and grandmothers in the house. Due to the large number of people participating in the processing, the number of finished products made has also increased. Yun'er is afraid of backlogs, and sometimes stops production and is on standby.
During this period, Ling Juan gave another life to a daughter-in-law who was purchased in the house. The woman was normal at first, but then her stomach stopped hurting and she always wanted to sleep. This condition is a sign of a difficult birth. The three stable women who delivered Yun'er and Fujin from the palace, how good they were when they gave birth naturally, and they were a little flustered when they encountered dystocia. When a mother gives birth, she almost hands over her life to her mother, and it is too wronged to meet an irresponsible person.
Ling Juan treats the mother quite responsibly, people can trust you and invite you here, aren't you responsible for other people's lives? The experience of a midwife is important, and it is even more important to be on the spot. The first is to calm the mother's nervousness, let her listen to herself, don't shout and scream, and don't be pessimistic and disappointed. Ling Juan herself was very steady, and gently massaged the abdomen of the mother. She can feel where the baby's head is and whether it is entering the birth canal smoothly. When the mother's mood is stable, she can better cooperate with the person who delivers the baby. Exert yourself when you should exert yourself, and do not waste your physical strength in vain. Finally, after four hours of life and death game, the mother gave birth to an eight-pound boy.
When the boy's head was exposed, Ling Juan put two pieces of tape on the mother's perineum at the right time. This prevents the perineum from tearing due to the baby's size. The key is the word "timely", the baby may not be able to come out if it is pasted early, and it will be too late if it is pasted.
Midwives are very hard, and her level of tension is no less than that of the mother herself. When the child cried, her sweat also flowed down her spine.
The husband of the mother admired Ling Juan's impatience very much, holding her eight-pound son, so happy that he didn't know what to say. gave Ling Juan a reward of twenty taels of silver, and prepared a sumptuous banquet.
When she returned to her residence, Ling Juan collapsed. In fact, this mother is also very dangerous, and she wants to sleep halfway after giving birth, which is simply ......
Ling Juan was able to deliver a pregnant woman with dystocia so smoothly, or with the help of Yun'er, the master had already told Yun'er to help her observe the fetus in the womb of the pregnant woman with her heavenly eyes when she delivered the baby, and if there was an abnormality, she could move the fetus to normal through the ability of air transportation. In fact, Ling Juan's mission Yun'er helped her complete more than half of the rate.
Yun'er has no credit for anyone's credit at all, and the pregnant woman is the most happy.
What Ling Juan was afraid of was that if Yun'er hadn't secretly mentioned and helped her transfer the child in the mother's womb to a normal state of birth and raising, this woman would definitely have the fate of one corpse and two lives. She didn't know how to be grateful to Yun'er, but she couldn't tell anyone about this matter, and if she talked about Yun'er, it would be dangerous.
