Chapter 29 Clothing
Hui Yu saw that Duan Hong was a reasonable and talkative person, and she was also relieved.
She was really a little afraid, if she had to stuff Tang's mother in, she couldn't push it to death, but fortunately, Duan Hong respected her meaning. As for whether Tang's mother can stay in the end, it depends on the wrestling between the two sides.
After saying this, Duan Hong also inquired about Huiyu's niece, and asked about daily matters: "Have you been enlightened?" What books did you read? How is the female red studying? ”
Hui Yu also replied truthfully: "The clan has invited a special teacher to give lessons, and I have read the Thousand Character Sutra, Kindergarten, and Female Rings, and I have also learned to play the piano, play chess, and female red." It's just that Hui'er is stupid by nature and learns very ordinarily. ”
This is for fear that Uncle Sitang will continue to ask about the content of learning, and he will admit that he has not learned well, so as not to be embarrassed if he can't say it. Duan Zewu felt that Chu Huiyu's speech was too interesting, and everything was resolved in a few words when it came to her.
Duan Hong really no longer asked about Hui Yu's study, but was relieved: "A woman's lack of talent is virtue, as long as a girl's family knows how to read, she can't take the imperial examination, and she is tired of studying herself." ”
Hui Yu almost didn't shout in her heart, Fourth Uncle, your heart is too forgiving.
Last night, in order to avoid Duan Hong's questioning and not being able to answer himself, he deliberately asked Fang's mother to make up for what she had to do before.
I really don't know if I don't ask, and I'm shocked when I ask. The young lady of this noble family is really not easy to be. Every morning, I have to go to the home school to learn piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and female red, and in the afternoon, I have to practice at home. And there are no Saturdays and Sundays......
Hui Yu was not at the level of a scholar in her previous life, and she was a little stunned when she heard that she could not escape from studying when she traveled to ancient times. If the content of learning is the same as in her previous life, mathematics, physics and chemistry, she can still be fooled, and she can't answer piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
So she planned that as long as Duan Hong asked, she would generously admit that she was stupid and couldn't study well. Duan Hong has to give her niece a little face.
However, she didn't expect that Duan Hong not only didn't ask, but also helped her shirk it, so happy that her heart was about to bloom.
However, it turns out that the earliest laugh is not necessarily the last laugh. Without this problem, you may have to deal with another problem.
I only heard Duan Hong change the topic and said, "Your mother is the old daughter of your grandmother, and she was raised like a pearl in the palm of her hand. Since marrying in the northwest, I have never returned to my parents' home, although your grandmother doesn't say it, but she always misses it in her heart. Now that your mother is gone, your grandmother wants to ask for some of your mother's daily belongings, so she has a thought. I wonder if Sister Hui can take your fourth uncle to your mother's house to find some small things? ”
Hui Yu couldn't help but be alarmed, Chang suspected that she knew the cause of her mother's death, if she took the fourth uncle to her mother's room, and then the fourth uncle sniffed out some clues, then wouldn't she jump into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it?
No, you have to find a reason to refuse. Huiyu's mind turned for a moment and said: "Fourth Uncle Xu doesn't know, Hui'er fainted in the mourning hall before, and after waking up, she doesn't remember the past, and even her mother's voice and smile are very blurred. My grandmother must have been looking for some small things that my mother used or loved, and if I didn't pick them out when I took my fourth uncle, wouldn't it make my grandmother unhappy. Wouldn't it be safer for Hui'er to discuss with her aunt first, let her find the maid who was waiting by her mother's side, and then look for those objects? ”
When Duan Hong heard that Huiyu had lost his memory, he couldn't care much about it, and said with concern: "How can you not remember the past?" But is there a problem with your health? Have you seen it to the doctor? ”
Hui Yu hurriedly replied: "I've already let the doctor see it, and it is said that the blow is too big, and if you are too sad, you won't remember the past, just rest and recuperate." ”
Duan Hong sighed and said, "Without parents overnight, Sister Hui is also miserable." ”
As he spoke, he touched Huiyu's head and continued: "You don't have to worry about placing Mother Tang and finding your mother's small belongings, I will discuss it with Mrs. Subei Hou." Tomorrow your parents will be funeral, don't be too tired, if you stay in the mourning hall for a long time and feel uncomfortable, find a place to rest first. If something is wrong with you, how can your parents be blind? ”
threw out another hot taro, Hui Yu had no reason not to agree, and quickly nodded yes.
Knowing that Hui Yu had amnesia and wanted to recuperate, Duan Hong didn't want to detain Hui Yu to talk in Baicaoju, so he asked her to go back to rest early, and he also took Duan Zewu and Tang's mother back to the long room.
Ending the meeting earlier than expected, Huiyu couldn't help but feel relaxed, and returned to Baihuayuan Meimei to have lunch and take a nap.
It was almost time before he woke up, and remembered that he still had to make clothes for the Chang family, so he called Caiyun in, and ordered Crimson to go to Liu Wu's family to ask for the two cloud brocades.
Caiyun didn't expect Hui Yu to start making clothes so soon, but the master had the heart to show filial piety, and he naturally had to cooperate with the subordinates, because the cloth had not yet been delivered, so he chatted about the style he made: "It's early summer now, and the weather is getting hotter, so it's very cool to make a long skirt." The neckline is made into a placket, the neck can be exposed, and the skirt under it is made into an eight-panel pendulum, which looks sparkling and most lined with the summer sun. ”
"The other body can be made into a kaftan with a pipa collar on top and trimmed with the edges. With a pleated skirt underneath, it looks rich and foreign. What does the girl think? ”
Professionals have said so, Hui Yu naturally said yes, but she can't do it, I think I can't even embroider cross-stitch at the beginning, let alone make clothes.
Hui Yu said honestly: "Since I woke up, I have almost forgotten about the female red, but I can't help but make clothes for my aunt, you can teach me where I can do it..."
Caiyun understands that these young ladies and girls say that they make clothes by themselves, but in fact, they can do it themselves, embroider flowers and plants on the clothes, and hook the edges, even if they do it themselves. So he said: "The most important thing about this long skirt and pleated skirt is the trim, and when the clothes are cut, the slave and maid teach the girl to trim on it, which is both eye-catching and the most expressive." ”
Hui Yu and Cai Yun Fang agreed on the style of clothes, and Jiang Hong took the two Yun Jin in.
Caiyun cut the cloth according to Chang's size, and Huiyu studied on the side.
Crimson saw that she had nothing to do with herself, so she went to the ear room on the side. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Fang's mother boiling tea in the room.
The small porcelain pot was steaming, and Fang's mother was holding a small fan and fanning the wind.
Crimson asked, "Mom, what is this delicious?" Smell the fragrance. ”
Fang's mother didn't raise her head and replied: "I saw that the weather was hot, so I boiled some white fungus pear soup for the girl to clear the heat and defeat the fire." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Hong stepped forward and snatched the fan from Fang's mother's hand, and said, "Mom has been very hard to accompany the girl to Baicaoju today, let me do this kind of work." ”
Fang's mother was not polite, she gave up her place for Crimson and sat on the chair next to her, wiping her sweat with a handkerchief while watching Crimson boil soup. The two chatted with each other.
After chatting, I talked about the Dingguo Mansion.
"I look at the old lady of the Dingguo Mansion and still miss my wife very much, and now that the lady is gone, I still want to ask the fourth uncle to bring back some of the things that the lady used before her death, so I have a thought. Alas, this long-distance marriage is really bad, and there is no way to see the last of the people when they are gone, so they can only bring some dead things back. Fang's mother said.
Crimson eyes flashed, and she asked, "Did that girl take the fourth uncle to find those objects?" ”
