Although Zou Ruyi did not elaborate, she has definitely experienced more than these over the years. No mother-in-law will truly love the children born to her rivals, especially if she has a low status, it is a shame.

Her previous family was like this, it was like this kind of family, and the intrigue in it was far more despicable than it seemed on the surface.

"Sister, are you sure this is pity? You go alone to this place where you don't know your life, you have no acquaintances, no helpers, no foundations, a weak woman who is alone, and it seems to me that this is just a kind of exile. ”

"But the only way for me to get out of that identity was that way, they wouldn't let me go back, they wouldn't let me use that last name. Even the only grandmother who still had some love for me gave up on me. ”

Bai Jiaojiao had a hint of understanding. "That embroidered pillowcase was given to the old man before?"

"Well, the Shangguan family has always been proud of not only the dyeing skills but also their embroidery and weaving threads, and my grandmother's love for me also stems from some of the female red skills I learned from A-Niang. When the **** saw his sister's craftsmanship, he knew that it was extraordinary, and knew that this was my only chance. ”

She said that the pillowcase was sent as a congratulatory gift, and sure enough, it was passed on by the old lady, so I won't go into details. "When I returned to Beijing this time, the old lady inadvertently remembered me. But what they didn't expect was what a sensation their sister's dresses would cause. Sister, you wait for me for a moment. ”

After a while, I saw Zou Ruyi walking over with a gold wire box carved with moire. "This is what I got this time, and the three sets of dresses almost broke the threshold of the inn where I was temporarily staying. In such a short period of time, I have seen all the close slaves and maids of the noblewomen in Beijing. People who haven't bought it in this circle are going to hate me so much, but there are only three sets in total, what can I do. ”

"Then didn't I hurt Sister Ruyi?" Bai Jiaojiao opened the box, and his eyes couldn't move, "This...... This, this silver is not enough, how can there be jewelry. ”

"They are all human spirits, which of these sets can be bought from me is an ordinary person, will there be a shortage of silver, how can you appear sincere and have identity if you don't take out some rare treasures." Zou Ruyi took out an East Pearl. "Sister, look at this bead, this is a tribute, a royal gift. This Nanmu bracelet is a thing that the old lady played with before her death, and these, which one has no name. So, the most terrible thing about this is that women do anything for the things they love. ”

"Yes, indeed."

"Only my sister's skillful hands can do it."

"I'm just thinking about it, they've never seen it so new. There are many imitations in Beijing, both the materials and the dyeing skills are much more mature and exquisite than mine. She can foresee that there should be a large wave of imitations in Kyoto by now.

"Haven't you ever thought that even if someone follows suit, they can't make the exact same style without getting the real thing, let alone I haven't seen this stitch. And even if someone imitates it, haven't you already spread your name for nothing? You don't know how many people have asked me about your lost time-honored brand, and I don't know how to answer. ”

"It's really hard sister, but I think these sisters must have a way to deal with it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have entrusted such an important matter to my sister. She almost forgot that this was ancient and not a modern copycat. Women's clothes can be touched by people who are close to them, and others can't remember the whole picture and stitching even if they look at it once or twice. Even if the things made are similar, they will not be exactly the same, not to mention that she still has thousands of years of ancestral wisdom.

Zou Ruyi was a little proud. "Of course, I'll tell them that this is a few things that I have made with a good friend, and you can make more elaborate ones, but you don't have time. Then they begged me one after another, I must contact you, they can pay a deposit, only one demand, to be different from others, even if they have a heavy weight in the future, they must be the first to wear. Isn't it funny, you say? ”

"My sister said it easily and funny, but I think dealing with them is the hardest work, and this silver should be half of my sister's credit."

"I don't want this, do you think I'm a man who lacks money?" Zou Ruyi is not short of silver now. "Thanks to my sister's dresses, no one dares to underestimate me even if he is in the official family, my status is different, and this is the joke that my sister sees. I don't lack money, if you have to give it to me, you'll hit me in the face. ”

She knew very well that Bai Jiaojiao had used her to open a way, but even if she handed over her goods to other people, it would only take more time and money, and she would not be trapped in any case. Bai Jiaojiao's entrustment to her is not a kind of affirmation and trust in her ability, and besides, she is ready to cooperate for a long time, which is not so good as to blind her.

"If I were short of money, I wouldn't be polite to you. But now I have got what I want most, you don't see the faces of the group of people in the Shangguan family, but a woman can make them lose face, all these years I have been looking forward to this day every night. Zou Ruyi relieved his hatred. How I don't thank you. ”

"I don't know my sister's grudges, I only know my sister's hard work, in this way, I really need the silver very much, so I don't say goodbye to my sister, but I can't use these royal treasures. Sister has to socialize some treasures, if my sister still thinks it's inappropriate, then do me a favor, help me change these treasures to the usual beads and gold thread or something, that is more practical than these treasures. "Why do you want these royal gifts, you can't eat them, you can't take them out.

"So you're ready to let go?" Zou Ruyi asked with a little surprise, Bai Jiaojiao had to be a female celebrity in order to support her family, and she had to eat and open a shop, which did not exceed her load. "You really make me feel novel, Bai Ji are you ready to leave it alone?"

"Where can I do it myself, otherwise I will be exhausted. Such a surprise, could it be that Sister Ruyi wants to recruit me for the Shangguan family? ”

"Come on, I don't even have time to hide from such a place where people eat people, when I'm really stupid enough to leave a treasure like you to them to waste?" Zou Ruyi suddenly smiled slightly obscenely and approached Bai Jiaojiao. "But girl, I still want to talk to you about the future development, you see what you are going to do."

"Sister Ruyi, you also know my foundation, if you are big, you have no foundation, but if you are small, it will not be interesting. I have an idea now, but whether I can implement it or not depends on the long-term consideration......"

"Hey, it looks like I'm too late, and I don't have this chance." Zou Ruyi looked annoyed and regretful. "Who pried you away before me? Heck, why don't you think about me first. (To be continued.) )
