Qingya entered the room and saluted Liu Xuan first, and then said, "The girl called me?" ”

Liu Xuan smiled at her: "I heard that Xiao Gong said that you are good at embroidery?" You tell the truth, you don't have to be humble. ”

Qingya bowed her head and said: "Don't hide it, Miss, Qingya's embroidery skills are good in Embroidery Village, but they are still far from the top embroiderers." ”

Liu Xuan didn't pay attention to her later sentence, but said to her: "Take one of your usual female celebrities and show it to me." ”

Qingya thought about it and took out a silk handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it over: "This embroidered handkerchief is what Qingya embroidered, and I asked the girl to look at it." ”

Liu Xuan took the boy and looked at it carefully, what Xiao Gong said was true, although Qingya's embroidery was not as good as her, but it was also excellent, she returned the embroidery handkerchief to Qingya, looked at her and said: "You have such good embroidery skills, why don't you go to be an embroiderer and go to the house to be a maid?" ”

"A slave is a slave." Qingya lowered her head and said in a somewhat gloomy voice: "The law stipulates that slaves are not allowed to be free, so naturally they cannot be spun as embroiderers, and slaves and maids have to enter the house as maids in order to provide for their younger brothers to study, and they do not hide from the girls, and the slaves and maids also take some embroidery work secretly in private." ”

Qingya's honesty made Liu Xuan very satisfied, that is, she didn't say it, Liu Xuan also knew that such a perfect embroidery skill needed to be practiced every day, but she wasted a lot of time, and it took a lot of effort to pick it up again.

She looked at Qingya and nodded, and then said, "You are so honest with me, you must be a smart one, I want to get rid of your slavery and entrust you with important responsibilities, are you willing?" ”

Qingya was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then knelt down with a puff, and her voice was slightly choked: "If the girl can get rid of Qingya's slave status." Qingya is willing to serve the girl for the work of dogs and horses, and use it for the girl in this life and this life to repay the girl's great kindness! ”

Liu Xuan knew that Qingya had an idea since she heard that Qingya had let her younger brother study, and she asked Qingya, "Why do you want to get out of slavery so much?" ”

Qingya lowered her head and choked up: "The girl doesn't know, the younger brother often makes fun of his companions because the slave is a slave when he is studying abroad, the slave's younger brother is a talented person, and he has already won the township test, and his husband also said that the future of the slave's younger brother is limitless, and the slave doesn't want to delay him because of his slave status." ”

Liu Xuan nodded. Let go of the last doubt in his heart: "I can get rid of your slavery." But you can only work in the brocade weaving in this life, I will hand you some lost embroidery skills, you have learned to teach these embroidery skills to the brocade weaving embroidery girls, from now on you are the first embroidery girl under my account. Green sprouts. Would you like to? ”

Qingya kowtowed to Liu Xuan three times: "The slave will remember Miss's great kindness for the rest of her life." ”

Look at the green sprouts. Liu Xuan was also a little embarrassed for a while, she evoked Qingya: "You don't have to be like this, if you don't have talent, I won't do this." At this time, you will stay in the house to learn embroidery skills, and I will let you deal with the matter of your slavery, and when you have almost learned, you will go to work in brocade weaving. ”

Qingya thanked her again, Liu Xuan asked her to step back first, and then looked at Xiao Gong and said, "Xiao Gong thinks it's good for Xuan to act like this?" ”

Xiao Gong touched the mustache of the three sheep and nodded: "The girl is acting very well this time, those embroidery girls were originally brought by Qingya, and they are more convinced of her, and it is really good for the girl to let Qingya go to Jinyi to lead them." ”

Xiao Gong admires Liu Xuan even more, she can know how to make good use of people and is not limited to her identity, this is a great talent.

Liu Xuan and Xiao Gong talked again, and Xiao Gong got up and left.

Liu Xuan summoned Hu Er and asked him to send Liu Zhiqing, Sun Xun and Long Yi's clothes, and then called Hu Yi to ask him to send Li Che's clothes to him, Liu Xuan said: "Inform Your Highness, let him wear new clothes tomorrow and find an excuse to go to Liufu, I know that His Highness is busy with affairs, he doesn't need to stay for a long time, just shake it in front of everyone." By the way, I asked him, I want to deal with a maid in the house to get rid of slavery. ”

The tiger nodded and led the order to retreat with the second tiger.

After a while, Huyi came back to his life: "His Royal Highness has already collected his clothes, saying that he will go to Liufu on time tomorrow, what the girl asked, His Royal Highness asked the girl to go directly to Liu Shaofu to do it, His Royal Highness also said that if the girl has similar things in the future, she can also directly hand it over to Liu Shaofu to do." ”

Seeing Liu Xuan nodding his head to indicate that he understood, Hu Yi retreated.

Liu Xuan was a little looking forward to the banquet in Liufu tomorrow, she was very confident in the four clothes, she was looking forward to the sensation caused by Liu Zhiqing and others wearing those clothes, although she didn't want to admit it, but what she was looking forward to in her heart was what Li Che would look like when she wore the robe she made herself.

The double-sided embroidered handkerchief of Qiu Ju and Dongmei has also been embroidered, and Liu Xuan looked at it with great satisfaction: "The two of you have made such progress in just a few days, which is really ingenious." ”

Hearing Liu Xuan's praise, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei smiled very brightly: "I don't know what the girl wants me to embroider these embroidered handkerchiefs?" ”

Liu Xuan pretended to smile mysteriously: "Tomorrow will naturally know." ”

On the second day, Liu Xuan arrived at Liufu early in the morning, and when he went, the people in Liufu were already busy, and Liu's mother was eating in the courtyard. ”

Although Liu Xuan had already eaten in the house, she still listened to Liu's mother's words and sat down to accompany her with some snacks, and after finishing the meal, Liu's mother looked at Liu Xuan's dress and frowned slightly: "My Xuan'er looks and temperament are all superior, but this dress is too plain, your identity is not as good as before, and it is better to dress up more luxuriously." ”

She took Liu Xuan's hand and sat down in front of the dresser, and said with a smile: "When my stepmother was young, I thought that if I had a daughter, I would make up for her every day, and dress her up beautifully. ”

This is Liu's mother's wish, and it is her love for herself, Liu Xuan naturally responded well, and let Liu's mother scatter her hair bun to comb her makeup.

Mother Liu carefully combed Liu Xuan's hair, and then skillfully kneaded a swallowtail bun for her, the swallowtail bun knot does not need to be supported at the top, but let it hang down naturally, and tie the knot slightly on the shoulder, this swallowtail bun will show Liu Xuan's elegant neck, and it will set off her temperament is light and elegant and noble.

Liu Xuan looked at it and praised: "The stepmother is a good skill." ”

Mother Liu smiled and inserted a hairpin for her: "It's still Xuan'er's beauty, if you change someone else, it won't be so moving." ”

Mother Liu put her hair in a bun for Liu Xuan. and painted her eyebrows and makeup, and after everything was done, a woman with a dusty and noble temperament and a top-notch appearance appeared in the bronze mirror.

Mother Liu looked at it and was very satisfied with her craftsmanship, and even Liu Xuan was also amazed: "After my stepmother's dress-up, Xuan'er almost can't recognize herself." ”

Mother Liu naturally sighed again, because Liu Xuan was already top-notch.

The mother and daughter praised each other, and after a happy appearance, Liu's mother said to Liu Xuan: "Today, His Royal Highness and the sons of the princes and nobles in Beijing are coming, and the nobles who came are all working hard to show something. ”

Mother Liu is good at everything. Liu Xuan is also sincere. It's just that the woman's heart is a little thicker, and Liu Xuan nodded slightly: "Xuan'er try her best." ”

At this time, the maid came and said that the banquet in the backyard garden had been arranged, and Mother Liu saw that the hour was almost up. It won't be long before guests arrive. took Liu Xuan towards the backyard garden.

Liufu's is a first-class official mansion. Naturally, it can't be compared with Liu Xuan's Liu Mansion, the back garden alone is as big as Liu Xuan's Liu Mansion, and the back garden is made up of rockeries and streams for two halves. There were banquets on both sides of the garden, and Liu Mu took Liu Xuan to sit next to the banquet on the right half, and the two chatted casually.

Liu Zhiqing and Sun Xun were slightly stunned when they saw Liu Xuan's equipment today, and then they greeted Liu's mother, Sun Xun smiled at Liu Xuan and said: "Thank you Miss Liu for the clothes, Xun loves it very much." ”

Liu Zhiqing also nodded on the side: "The clothes I made in Jinxiufang when I dared to love Yizhou before were not from you, and I always thought that they were painted by you." ”

Liu Xuan looked at Liu Zhiqing and Sun Xun, and was very satisfied with the patterns he painted, Liu Zhiqing was dressed in Tsing Yi, and the embroidery patterns on the Tsing Yi were not ordinary.

And Sun Xun's white clothes show that he is as gentle as jade.

Liu Xuan said with a smile: "Today, all the nobles in the capital are coming, and you two don't know how many nobles you are going to be fascinated by wearing this dress." ”

Sun Xun and Liu Zhiqing both stiffened when they heard this, Liu Zhiqing looked at her and shook his head with a smile, while Sun Xun turned his head to the side and did not speak.

Liu Xuan didn't quite understand what these two people meant for a while, but they were thin-skinned and couldn't stand laughing. immediately changed the topic and got down to business, she said to Liu Zhiqing: "There is a maid named Qingya in my house, I want to get rid of her slave status, you can do this?" ”

Liu Zhiqing nodded: "It's a trivial matter, just send someone to hand over your maid's deed of sale to me tomorrow." ”

Liu Xuan responded, and Liu Zhiqing said: "Okay, you and your mother are here to entertain the female guests, and I will go there with Sun Xun to entertain the male guests." After he finished speaking, he and Sun Xun said goodbye to Liu's mother and went to the other side of the banquet.

Mother Liu looked at the backs of the two of them leaving and sighed: "Your brother-in-law and Sun Xun don't know what's going on, according to the identity of the two, they should have started a family a long time ago, but these two people are all over the city and women are invisible, and I don't know how long this marriage will be delayed." ”

Liu Xuan smiled and comforted Liu's mother: "Mother, why bother, I'm afraid that my brother's appearance and talent will not be admired by a woman?" I'm afraid that there are too many women I admire, and my righteous brother is dazzled, so it is delayed. ”

Hearing this, Mother Liu smiled and glanced at Liu Xuan: "...... you?"

At this moment, the voice of the little maid not far away came: "Mrs. Song Xuanzheng and Miss Song have arrived." ”

Liu Xuan raised her eyes and saw a woman dressed as a lady with a woman about thirteen or fourteen years old slowly coming along the garden path, and when they walked in, Liu's mother and Liu Xuan got up to greet them.

Mrs. Song took Miss Song to meet Mother Liu, and Mother Liu looked at Miss Song and smiled: "Miss Song is becoming more and more smart now." ”

The Song girl looked shy and bowed her head slightly: "Mrs. Xie Liu praises." ”

Mrs. Song smiled and said, "Mrs. Liu, don't praise her, this girl is very thin-skinned." She looked at Liu Xuan on the side and praised: "This is Miss Liu, right?" Mrs. Liu is so blessed! ”

Mrs. Song's praise was amazing, and Mother Liu smiled and led her to sit down beside her: "Xuan'er worships on my knees is indeed my blessing, I thought that who would arrive first today, but I never thought that it was you who arrived first, I heard that your son-in-law was already weak, why didn't you bring him today?" ”

Mrs. Song smiled and sighed: "Madam, you don't know, the bastard boy in my family admires the most is your eldest son, who just entered the mansion and heard that Liu Shaofu was there, and he has already gone to look for it." ”

Mother Liu smiled and said something to talk to Mrs. Song, and at this time, Miss Song also came to Liu Xuan's side and saluted her slightly: "I've seen Miss Liu." ”

Liu Xuan smiled and led her to sit down beside her: "I see that you are a little younger than me, if you don't give up calling me Sister Liu, so Miss Liu and Miss Liu are calling Shengfen." ”

The Song girl had a happy look on her face, raised her face and glanced at Liu Xuan, lowered it again, and called softly: "Sister Liu." ”

Liu Xuan saw that she was really thin-skinned, and immediately called with a smile: "Sister Song." ”

After a while, the little girl sounded one after another, and many noble ladies came with Miss Fuzhong one after another, and those noble ladies saw Liu Xuan's eyes full of amazement, and they all praised Liu's mother for her good fortune, and Liu's mother was very useful, and the smile on her face never broke.

The ladies brought by those ladies also chattered around Liu Xuan and admired, nothing more than sighing that she had a good temperament and good looks, and Liu Xuan politely replied and gradually became familiar with them.

More than half an hour passed, as more and more women came, Liu's mother saw that she was about to be unable to sit down at the banquet table, so Liu's mother waved her hand and smiled at the ladies and said: "Look at these girls, they are all very happy, and it must be boring to stay here to talk to us old women, or let them go to play, and our sisters should stay and say something about themselves." ”

Mother Liu said that the ladies nodded naturally, this banquet is like this, the older one came with the young lady of the house, but it was not for them to accompany them to chat and chat.

Many lively girls were overjoyed when they heard Liu's mother's words, and Liu's mother smiled and quipped: "You see, these girls are all about to be stuffy, and they are all happy when they hear that they are going to play." ”

Liu's mother joked, those girls who were originally happy were slightly shy, and Liu's mother smiled and said, "Okay, okay, let's go play, Xuan'er is so entertaining." ”

Liu Xuan responded, blessed the ladies present, and led the ladies from the various provinces to withdraw from the banquet.

Mother Liu held a flower viewing banquet today, and Liu Xuan smiled and said to Miss Zhongfu during the banquet: "Now that the orchids are blooming just right, why don't we go and take a look?" ”

The orchid is placed in the atrium of the garden, closer to the male guest than here, the women heard that it was natural to nod their heads, Liu Xuan took them to the atrium, the atrium side of the flowing water pavilion banquet is available, Liu Xuan led them to sit next to the banquet, while enjoying the flowers and talking with them, the women talked and laughed, even the shy Song girl was also much more lively than when the banquet was on the side of Liu's mother.
