Pulling her daughter to the needlework room to measure new clothes, Mrs. Fan said to her daughter as she walked, "It is said that the daughters-in-law of the needlework room should be asked to bring the fabric to the room to measure your clothes, but I thought, after you marry into the Du family, although it is not your turn to be a housekeeper, you always have to learn how to run the house, and the family cannot live together forever." ”

"I know." Fan Anyang's jaw head.

The daughter-in-law of the steward of the sewing room went to each room to measure the clothes of the masters, and if the masters had any rulers at the bottom of the box, they took them back to the sewing room after measuring the size, which was the clothing of the people waiting in the courtyard of the masters, and most of them were the daughters-in-law of the stewards of the needlework room who took people to the courtyards to measure their bodies, and the masters almost did not set foot in the sewing room.

"The kitchen, sewing room and storeroom are all oily and watery, and you should know very well when you were in charge of the house in Guangling."

"Well, the ingredients used in the kitchen are good and bad, I am afraid that the chef is shoddy, and the same is true in the sewing room, some rulers look plain, but the weaving method is peculiar, and it is not for nothing that a foot is worth a thousand gold, if the eyesight is not good, it is more likely to be fooled."

A gust of north wind blew, Fan Anyang squinted slightly, and when the wind passed, he said again: "As for the warehouse, it has to be counted from time to time, so that someone doesn't have to steal it and sell it without knowing it." ”

Mrs. Fan smiled and nodded, "Actually, it's all the same, if you can manage your own yard well, you won't be afraid that you won't be able to manage it when you're in charge, I see, you have a very good set of housekeepers, even Manager Fan is obedient to you, even the things in the shop are looking for you." ”

"That's my brother backing me up!" Fan Anyang is very self-aware. "Big brother has already set all the rules and regulations. It's just those details that ask people to get ideas, can't I do this? ”

Mrs. Fan was naturally happy when she heard her daughter say that her son was good.

Went into the sewing room. Mrs. Fan and the embroiderers discussed the four seasons of Fan Anyang's wedding clothes, what flowers to embroider, what color of cloth with what color and material of the strip, and even the silk strip used to press the skirt were also discussed.

Fan Anyang saw that the embroidery girls were talking energetically, so he simply took the drawing paper with Mo Xiang, and drew the style that Mrs. Fan and the embroidery girls said with a few strokes, and Mrs. Fan smiled when she saw it. "Alas! It's so much more convenient, you don't have to say it's a long time. I still don't get it. ”

The embroidery girls looked at the charcoal in Fan Anyang's hand in amazement, "Sixth girl, is this the wicker charcoal we use for thrushes?" ”

"yes!"

"It turns out that this can be drawn not only on the face, but also on paper!"

"Oops! It's still six girls who are smart. I even want to get this, hey, don't say it, I can do this if I want to draw patterns in the future, right? ”

"On canvas?"

Fan Anyang pretended not to hear it, and drew charcoal on the cloth, of course it can! It's just that if you want to stain the embroidery thread or fabric, don't come to her to settle accounts.

Mrs. Fan smiled and listened to them, and suddenly an embroidery lady sighed: "It's still Mrs. and the six girls who are generous." ”

As soon as the words fell, other embroiderers immediately echoed: "Yes! ”

Mrs. Fan knew something was wrong, so she asked, "What's the matter?" Our family is full of generous people, why only praise our mother and daughter? ”

"Madame doesn't know. Yesterday at the end of the day, the maid next to the fourth girl brought a pink cherry skirt and said that the embroidery on it was wrong! Ask the slaves to redo it. If we really do something wrong and admit it, who will let us do it wrong? ”

"Not really! When our sisters went to the four girls' house to measure their clothes, they persuaded the four girls that the pink cherry blossom skirt embroidered with spring cherry blossoms was the best, and she didn't want it. We must embroider powder. "If you make a mistake, you have to pay for it!

Mo Xiang said: "The sixth girl's method is good, after the sisters-in-law and sisters learn it." What kind of dress each master wants to make, he can draw it carefully. ”

The embroidery girls said yes one after another, and the housekeeper's daughter-in-law also asked Fan Anyang for advice, how to draw.

"You all use willow branches for thrushes, don't you?" The embroidery girls nodded, and Fan Anyang said: "Then you must know that some charcoal strips burned by wicker are really not easy to apply makeup when they are painted, and some are soft and black, and their eyebrows are dark when they are lightly painted." ”

"Exactly, exactly."

"That's it."

"Then you can keep the thrushes that are strong and the light ones to draw patterns, but remember that the charcoal color is easy to paste." took out their own albums to show them, and the embroidery girls flipped through them one by one and were amazed.

They had already heard that the eldest young master brother and sister had opened a Ruyi Embroidery Village in Guangling, and the most famous thing about this Ruyi Embroidery Village was that the embroidery manuscripts were different, and these drawings came from the hands of the sixth girl and the seventh young master.

The housekeeper's daughter-in-law smiled and asked Mrs. Fan for these tricks.

"This is painted by you six girls, what are you asking me to do?"

The housekeeper's daughter-in-law turned to Fan Anyang, but before she could speak, Fan Anyang had already said: "This is reserved for you to use, but they are all patterns used by Ruyi Embroidery, don't you mind?" ”

All the embroidery girls said they didn't mind, and some people asked what Ruyi Embroidery Village was used for, Fan Anyang guessed that they probably wanted to compete with the embroidery girls of Ruyi Embroidery Village, right?

After talking to them one by one, when leaving the embroidery room, it was close to dinner, Mrs. Fan took her daughter back to the room for dinner, and asked Brother Fan Amber again, knowing that they went out to visit friends, Mrs. Fan held her daughter's hand and smiled: "Men are idle, you keep it in mind, don't detain your husband after leaving the cabinet, you know?" ”

"Got it!" Fan Anyang generously took his mother's hand and replied, "But Brother Fuchang, he seems to stay at home and paint!" ”

"Naughty."

The mother and daughter laughed and walked, and when they were about to arrive at the Guansui Courtyard, they saw the two concubines in the third room approaching surrounded by the maids.

After the two sides greeted each other, Mrs. Fan asked, "Where did your sisters go?" ”

"Let's go play with the sixth sister, who knows where the sixth sister is not there!"

"It turned out to be with my aunt."

The fourth girl is taller, the toned figure is like a spring flower slowly blooming delicate, her facial features are distinct, she is a bright and generous girl, but unfortunately the expression on her face is always a little resentful, so that her brightness is discounted, the fifth girl is petite and round, the facial features are soft, and she is always timid when she speaks. When people talk to her, they always can't help but whisper, lest they scare her.

But that's them. Picking up Fan Anlan to mess with Master Fan, it's really unimaginable to see them like this!

Mrs. Fan said affectionately: "Your sixth sister's wedding is approaching, and there are so many things to do, I'm afraid she won't have time to play with your sisters!" If you have time, why don't you help your aunt to accompany the three girls more? She was punished by your uncle yesterday, and now she is detained in the hospital to recuperate from her injuries and is not able to move around, she has never been able to sit still, but she is afraid that she will be suffocated! ”

Mrs. Fan's eyes were cold. The smile on the corner of his mouth made the two concubines in the third room tremble, and they couldn't help but glance at each other. Heart, the eldest aunt didn't find out, it was the two of them who dragged Fan Anlan to quarrel with the eldest uncle, right?

Probably not.

Fan Anlan loves to toss blindly, and everyone in this house knows about it. How could the eldest aunt be suspicious?

Without waiting for the two of them to communicate, Mrs. Fan said again, "Go back to dinner!" It's time for us to go back to dinner, after dinner, Ah Zhao, do you still want to teach your brothers to paint in the next day? ”

"Yes! My brothers are struggling! The portrait that my second brother drew yesterday has been eight points like, and I told him how to adjust the details, and he patted his chest and said, "Today will definitely satisfy me." ”

"How do you get satisfied? It should be that he is satisfied. ”

Fan Anyang smiled and held his mother's hand and walked away, and from time to time he could hear the laughter of their mother and daughter. The maids who followed behind were also laughing and laughing, which made the maids in the third room envious.

The fourth girl didn't reply and asked the fifth girl, "You say." But the eldest aunt knows, we taught the third sister to quarrel with the uncle? ”

"What if you know? Can she blame our three rooms because her concubine doesn't listen to the rules? You think our grandmother is an ornament! ”

"Humph! Don't talk about her! The six girls are just fools, they can marry into the prime minister's mansion and marry their sons-in-law, why can't we? It's the family affair that the second sister ordered before. is still the grandson of the Hou Mansion! The four girls were so angry that they stomped their feet.

The fifth girl didn't say anything, she looked left and right. Slightly pulled her sister's sleeve, the fourth girl glared at her impatiently, and she signaled her to pay attention with beautiful eyes.

The fourth girl pursed the corners of her mouth angrily, then closed her mouth angrily and pulled her sister to the Orchid Courtyard.

When she came to the gate of the Lanyuan, the fourth girl asked the maid to investigate the situation, and after a while, the maid came back with a calm face, "Fourth girl, the third girl was beaten by the eldest master yesterday." ”

"Huh?" The fourth girl looked at the maid in surprise with her mouth open, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, "Didn't you say that the eldest uncle loves this daughter the most?" How can you get beaten? ”

The fifth girl saw that the people in the Orchid Courtyard were constantly looking at them, and they were busy pulling the four girls away.

"Why are you pulling me away?"

"If you don't leave, do you have to wait here, wait for the third sister to come out to find us?"

When the fourth girl heard that her scalp was numb, she pulled the fifth girl to the third room.

The orchid courtyard is very close to the third room, so they only go far to return to their own residence, the third room is now unmarried only their sisters, unlike the big house of the concubines who live in a courtyard, their sisters live in a second courtyard, one into the four girls, two into the five girls, they returned to the courtyard, the fifth girl's biological mother Aunt Rong's maid came to invite the five girls to come over for dinner.

The fifth girl glanced at her sister, and then left with the maid, and the fourth girl watched them go, and then threw the handkerchief back to her house, and when she entered the house, she found that Aunt Yun was in the house early.

"You're messing with Xiao Wu again."

"I don't hang out with her, who do I want to hang out with? Sixth sister, that fool? The four girls angrily threw themselves on the big kang near the window, buried their heads in the pillows, "The fool of the sixth sister is going to leave the pavilion!" We are a few big ones, but we haven't even settled where our in-laws' house is! ”

Aunt Yun sighed lightly and moved to sit next to her daughter, stretched out her hand and patted her daughter on the back, "If you want to be in a hurry, then it won't be your turn to be in a hurry!" The second and third girls of the big house should be in a hurry! ”

"The second girl just quit her family, how easy is it to find a home immediately? What's more, she and her aunt offended your aunt badly in order to book the previous family! Now when she is busy marrying her daughter-in-law, take the time to work for her in-laws? Think beautifully! As for the three girls. ”

Aunt Yun paused, "Don't get too close to her, remember what I told you about Aunt Zhou, right?" ”

"Remember, but if Aunt Zhou's reputation is really so bad that even the third sister is tired, won't it affect the reputation of our sisters?"

"You know what! The third girl will be affected, that's because she was raised by her aunt, if she was raised in front of your aunt, it will be different! What a pity! Aunt Zhou was angry with your aunt, but she forgot that her daughter's future was also ruined by her own hands! ”

"So my aunt tells you to please your wife, my son! Your future is in the hands of your lady! Aunt Yun earnestly warned her daughter and asked her to listen to her mother-in-law.

It's just that the four girls are still unconvinced, and Aunt Yun is so good that she can persuade her daughter, but how long can the effect last? Then only God knows! (To be continued)
