Chapter 164

Li Junran originally thought that she would not be able to see Xiao Qiliu's brother Li Junyang until evening, after all, Li Junyang had come to visit her at this time several times before, but she didn't want to come over before noon this time. So when Mrs. Zhou, who was in charge of guarding the corner gate, came to look for Li Junran, she was startled by Li Junran, who was still busy.

"Qiliu, I can be regarded as finding you. Hurry up, your little brother has come to see you again. In the distance, there was the shouting of Mrs. Zhou's octave. If you want to say that this is not intentional, there is no secret evil by the people behind you, and Li Junran will not believe it if he is killed. It just so happened that today Li Junran also thought about the danger of the army and decided to play a big game.

To say that Li Junran's biggest gain in the months of Jing Yaxuan may be that she was promoted from a third-class errand girl in the kitchen to a second-class maid in the inner courtyard. And in Miss Chengfu's Jing Yaxuan, she enjoyed special treatment for many days. Such special treatment is impossible to say that it does not attract people's attention. What's more, Li Junran originally sold the Cheng Mansion from outside, and compared to those children in the Cheng Mansion, it can be said that there is no foundation at all.

Originally, if she was still a second-class maid in Jing Yaxuan, it would be for the sake of Cheng Yuyan, the eldest lady of Cheng Mansion, even if she wanted to pinch the soft persimmons, she would have to weigh them. Now, because of the words of Cheng Qingye, the head of Cheng Mansion, Li Junran moved out of Jing Yaxuan and didn't say anything, but also followed Mama Fang to learn the rules again.

If you want to say that this house is grandma, it was Cheng Qingye's upbringing grandmother back then, borrowing Li Junran's original words to evaluate, the whole Mama is a Rong, and it is the ultimate version. The only thing to be thankful for may be that this Mama Rong is very reasonable. It will not deliberately rectify people for no reason. Therefore, if you punish severely, you must have made a mistake in accordance with the rules. Li Junran has been by Mama Fang's side for more than a month, although she has been miserable, but after smoothing out Mama Fang's temper, this day is actually not too sad.

Therefore, some people have only decided to do it now, not because they are afraid of Mama Fang.

Li Junran, who had already heard Mrs. Zhou shouting there, did not hurry to get up, but continued to be busy with the work in hand. Mrs. Zhou naturally knew that Li Junran was slower than others in what she did on weekdays, and seeing that she was already slow, she thought of the person who specially explained her words. I was a little anxious again.

"Ouch hey. I said Qiliu, you should be faster. ”

"Mrs. Zhou, if you have something, go back first. Qiliu had to finish the work at hand before he could go to see his little brother. Otherwise, if Mother Jin knew. I have to go to Mama Fang to complain. "Because it's getting cold day by day. All the servants in the house were to change into winter clothes. The needlework room was understaffed, and a little girl like Li Junran, who was a monk halfway, was also temporarily transferred to the needlework room to be responsible for sewing winter clothes. Although Li Junran said that he did not come to the side of the Apocalypse Dynasty. can also sew buttons, but to say that sewing clothes is also a big girl on the sedan chair, the first time. In this regard, many people are gloating and ready to see Li Junran's jokes.

But who is Li Junran? Doesn't it always say that "the progress of science and technology is the replacement of tools". Li Junran's manor warehouse still has a lot of messy tools collected by the predecessor White Lotus before the end of the world. Among them was a brand new thing called a sewing machine, as well as several miniature manual sewing machines. After mastering it, there is definitely a problem with the stitches~~ Take 10,000 steps back, there is still a snow lotus in the manor who has mastered Su embroidery and can embroider double-sided embroidery.

Of course, Li Junran was not stupid enough to dig his own grave to destroy the image of a stupid girl who had been so hard to shape and had penetrated into the minds of everyone in Cheng Mansion. For this reason, her grinding efficiency was also taught a lesson by Mother Jin, the steward of the needle room in the house, and being hungry was a compulsory course every once in a while.

Mrs. Zhou tiptoed, glanced at the pile of hills behind Li Junran, and suddenly understood. No need to ask, this pile of clothes must be the winter clothes task that Li Junran must finish sewing today. Don't look at just sewing the front and back three pieces and the two sleeves together, but it will take at least an hour or two to sew them all, even if it is an experienced female worker. What's more, there are more than a dozen pieces of clothes in that pile, to say the least.

Yes, it seems that today is the same as the previous times, and it is impossible for this girl Qiliu to complete these tasks and sneak out. Mrs. Zhou shook her head helplessly, although she was a little sympathetic to Li Junran's experience, she couldn't do anything in the end.

It is said that Mother Jin, who is in the needle room in the house, is not too mean among many stewards, and is even very talkative. As long as the girl at the bottom is busy with the work that must be done every day, even if it is completed before noon, the rest of the time can be lazy to rest. The problem is that every time Jin's mother assigns a task, even if she is the most skilled female worker at needlework, she is busy from morning to night without resting, and it is not easy to complete it an hour in advance, let alone a girl like Li Junran.

Li Junran saw that Mrs. Zhou had left, and then looked back at the pile of messy clothes behind her, and continued to lower her head and speed up the last sleeve of the winter coat in her hand. About half a pillar of incense passed, and Li Junran finally finished the sewing work of the winter coat in his hand. It is said that practice makes perfect, although she does not know how to cut, but after nearly a month of hellish training, she has become quite proficient in hand-sewing.

Li Junran looked up at the sky outside the window where heavy snowflakes began to fall, and no longer had a moment of hesitation to stand up, and went straight to the next door to find the housekeeper of the needle house, Mother Jin.

"What?" Mother Jin, who was looking down and calculating how many winter clothes were missing, looked at Li Junran with a surprised expression, and couldn't believe that the girl in front of her, who had not been able to complete her work for most of the previous half a month, would suddenly work so hard. Could it be that they were all playing lazy bones before?

Thinking of this, Mother Jin squinted, and her face gradually became gloomy.

"You bring me the winter coat that has been completed."

"Yes."

After a while, Li Junran hugged the three winter clothes that had been sewn to Mother Jin. Mother Jin checked it carefully and found that there was only one winter coat inside, and the stitches on one sleeve were slightly rougher, and the stitches on the other two were very even.

"Mother Jin, Granny Zhou, who was watching the corner door in the backyard, deliberately said that the little brother in the family came to visit Qiliu. Nanayanagihara thought that the little brother would arrive in the evening...... Can Qiliu ask Jin's mother for half an hour's leave. The remaining two winter coats must be completed by Qiliu before evening. ”

The work of sewing winter clothes arranged by Jin's mother for Li Junran is five pieces a day, and it stands to reason that this task is still a bit heavy, of course, it is not impossible to complete it if you are faster. The problem Li Junran is in the back house of the inner courtyard of the entire Cheng Mansion, which is notoriously chronic. Therefore, in the previous half a month, after being temporarily transferred to the needlework room, the live measurement of only three pieces in the first few days was removed, and it was not completed on time after that.

This time, three pieces were completed before noon.

Mrs. Zhou had such a loud voice, how could Mother Jin, who was next door, not hear it.

"You want to see your family, and your mother is not that cold-blooded and unreasonable person. But...... Qiliu, since you can make three winter clothes in the morning, it will not be a problem to make five more in the afternoon and evening. Mother Jin stared at Li Junran for a long time before chuckling and said, "Qiliu, don't blame Mother Jin." It's really a shortage of people in this needle house, and the winter clothes up and down the house are still poor. ”

"Yes." What else can Li Junran say about this. What do you say about the lack of manpower, isn't it bullying her, the yellow-haired girl who has no backstage backing in the Cheng Mansion?

In fact, each courtyard of Cheng Mansion has needlework rooms, and the four masters of Cheng Mansion take out the only four remaining aunts throughout the year, and the only sets of formal clothes are custom-made by the best embroidery workshops outside, even the daily clothes are responsible for the needlework rooms of each courtyard. Of course, the needle rooms of each courtyard have to be responsible for housekeepers like Mama Ding, first-class girls like Bai Zhi, and even those second-class maids. As for the big needle house where Li Junran is now, it is mainly responsible for the lowest-class group in the house, and of course, the largest number of slaves are also the clothes of the whole year. Because you have to be busy all year round, you will never be disliked by manpower. As for the shortcomings...... If it wasn't enough, Cheng Zhang, who was in charge of the housekeeper, had already gone out to buy a new girl and entered the house. (To be continued......)
