Chapter 120: Needlework

Zhou Shaojin felt that Nanping was too polite.

She smiled, "It's okay, Miss Jiying just asked me to tell her how to make socks." I can't say anything intrusive. ”

Nanping seemed to be relieved when she heard this, and said: "The second lady has also dealt with Ji Ying, she is good at everything, but her temper is too upright, and she can't stand a little grievance." But when a person walks in the world, how can everything go well? That's why I asked her to help the fourth master do some needlework, and I can also take the opportunity to detain her, lest she run away - the fourth master went to Huai'an, and he hasn't come back yet! ”

Zhou Shaojin believed Nanping's words, otherwise he would not have only asked Ji Ying to make four pairs of socks for Cheng Chi.

For people who don't know how to be popular, it's difficult to make four pairs of socks, and for people who can be popular, it's a day's work.

Zhou Shaojin didn't know what the gap was between Nanping and Jiying, but when he heard that Cheng Chi hadn't come back yet, he was a little afraid that the two would make trouble. She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you let Ji Ying follow me to learn female celebrity for a few days!" When Uncle Chi comes back, it's not too late for you to teach her. ”

Nanping knew that he had instructed Jiying not to move, thought about it, thanked Zhou Shaojin gratefully, and said, "Then I'll trouble the second miss in the past few days." The fourth master will be back in three days at most. ”

Zhou Shaojin nodded with a smile and sent Nanping away.

Back in the house, Ji Hotaru was practicing with needlework there.

Zhou Shaojin looked very happy, and felt that although Ji Ying was arrogant, he was a person who took things seriously.

Ji Ying asked her, "Nanping is gone?" ”

"yes!" Zhou Shaojin sat down and continued to sew socks, and said, "I said that you followed me here to learn from Nuhong and disturbed me, so I came here to thank you." ”

Ji Ying snorted coldly, dropped the needle and thread in her hand, and said, "I just can't get used to seeing her like that." It seems that she is the only one who is loyal to your Uncle Chi, and everyone else has two hearts. ”

Zhou Shaojin thought about it carefully, not to mention, Nanping and Jiying are really two different people, or this is the main reason for the conflict between them.

She sewed up a sock, and when she saw that Jiying was still there in a daze, she couldn't help but say, "What's wrong with you?" Isn't there something wrong with it? ”

"Oh!" Ji Hotaru came back to his senses and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just not very used to it." As he spoke, he picked up the needle and thread, and slowly sewed two pieces of odd cloth according to what Zhou Shaojin had just taught.

Zhou Shaojin smiled and quickly sewed the other sock.

She picked it up and looked at it carefully, smiling with satisfaction.

Ji Hotaru came over and said, "I really can't see it, just this little change, this sock looks much better." She added, "You like to be a celebrity very much, right?" My dad said that you can only do it well if you like something. ”

Zhou Shaojin was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Your father is quite knowledgeable." ”

"That's it!" Ji Ying straightened his back with some honor and said, "My father traveled a lot when he was young, and he also went to sea to find Penglai Immortal Island. But I didn't find ......," she said, and smiled faintly, playfully like a little girl, and there was still a little cold look.

Zhou Shaojin also laughed, and became even more curious about Ji Ying's origin.

She put her socks aside and said, "You practice first, and when it's almost time, I'll tell you how to walk this cross needle." ”

Ji Ying said: "I haven't learned the most basic flat needle yet!" ”

Zhou Shaojin said with a smile: "What seems to be the simplest, but it is actually the most difficult to do well." Why do you think we use cross needles to sew socks for Uncle Chi? It's because this cross needle has a pull and it's not very obvious, just right for you. ”

"Really?" Ji Hotaru was a little unconvinced, but she didn't refute it, and lowered her head to continue practicing sewing.

Zhou Shaojin took the unfinished forehead and came out to embroider.

Ji Ying asked her, "Is this for Mrs. Guo?" I look like it's a treasure flower...... But everyone else uses red and green, sapphire blue, why do you use lilac, yellow vine, crow, blue? ”

"The color should also be appropriate for the person's age." Zhou Shaojin said with a smile, "Look at Mrs. Guo's appearance, embroidering a big red, green, and sapphire blue forehead, do you think she will like it?" ”

Ji Ying laughed, her expression was a little less cold and a little more gentle.

Zhou Shaojin asked her, "Why didn't you see Miss Minghe?" She told her about the last time she went to the needlework and met Minghe, and said, "I went to Xiaoshan Conggui Courtyard two or three times and didn't meet her." ”

Ji Hotaru said: "She's about to be a bride, so she's hiding in the house doing needlework these days!" ”

Zhou Shaojin was very surprised and said, "Is Minghe going to get married?" Why didn't you listen to the people in the Hanbi Mountain House? Who is she married to? Where to be on an errand? ”

"She is the maid of Xiaoshan Cong Guiyuan, and if she wants to marry, your Uncle Chi is in charge, so everyone knows what to do?" Ji Ying said, "Your Uncle Chi gave her to a person surnamed Shen in Huzhou, and the generation surnamed Shen is a fast catcher, and there are still some assets in the family, it should be not bad, right?" I haven't seen it. She then complained, "If it weren't for the fact that I didn't even have time for Naruto, I wouldn't be so wolf!" ”

Zhou Shaojin sweated.

Naruzuru's husband, what is Hotaru going to see for?

She always felt that the more she came into contact with Ji Hotaru, the more she felt that Ji Hotaru was a little strange in what she said and acted in.

But Uncle Chi actually married Minghe to a catcher...... Strange enough!

The two of them talked about the parents again, sometimes Zhou Shaojin only asked, but Ji Ying said a lot, sometimes Zhou Shaojin asked for a long time, Ji Ying sent her away with a word, but no matter whose words are long and whose words are short, after a few times, Zhou Shaojin feels that there is no burden to get along with Ji Ying, and his impression of Ji Ying is getting better and better.

Ji Hotaru's temper became worse and worse, she dropped the rag in her hand and said, "I want to rest!" ”

Zhou Shaojin pursed her lips and smiled, asked Shi Xiang to make her a new cup of tea, and said softly: "Then you can take a sip of tea!" ”

Ji Hotaru let out a cold "um".

Zhou Shaojin continued to embroider his forehead.

Ji Ying said: "You can stitch a few more stitches and I'll take a look!" ”

Zhou Shaojin put down the forehead handkerchief in his hand, picked up the cut fabric, and quickly sewed the soles of his feet, as long as he sewed the socks on, it would be another pair of socks, and after a little hesitation, he sewed the socks on, and then handed it to Ji Ying: "Do you see it clearly?" ”

"See clearly!" Hotaru said, picking up the fabric of the other sock and sewing.

Zhou Shaojin hurriedly stopped her and said, "You sew another one again - it's the same as the habit, and the tightness when sewing is not the same, and the other one ...... Or I sewed it. ”

Ji Hotaru nodded, didn't say anything polite to her, took a pair of socks again and began sewing.

Zhou Shaojin sewed the other sock.

Ji Hotaru just started, and the stitches were crooked, very ugly, but the order of the stitches was not wrong.

Zhou Shaojin encouraged her: "It's not bad! If you continue to work hard, you will be able to swallow dates and make a pair of top numbers in a few days. ”

Ji Hotaru looked at the needle and thread in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, and said confidently: "I think so too." ”

Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but wonder.

Ji Ying stood up: "It's not early, you have to go to Hanbi Mountain House to copy scriptures in the afternoon, I'll leave first, and I'll come back tomorrow to disturb you." After speaking, she raised the socks in her hand, "I'll take this back first, practice well at night, and try to get started quickly." ”

Zhou Shaojin bowed his head with a smile and sent Jiying out.

At noon, she and her sister were accompanying Mrs. Guan to lunch, and the second room came to report that the grandmother Zheng had given birth to a son, six pounds and six taels, and the mother and son were safe.

Wasn't it born when you ate crabs in your previous life? Why is this life a few days earlier?

Zhou Shaojin muttered in his heart.

Mrs. Guan was very happy, kept saying "yes", and told Mrs. Chu to visit Grandma after lunch: "...... The heirs of our Cheng family have always been thin, and in your life, only you and Grandma Hong are sons. Now that Grandma Zhi has made a good start, the Cheng family will definitely prosper in the future. ”

Mrs. Chu smiled and responded "yes", and wanted to bring the Zhou sisters over to see the newborn little hairy heads.

Zhou Shaojin felt that the second and third rooms were very hypocritical and didn't want to have more contact with them, so he politely refused and went to Hanbi Mountain House.

Zhou Chujin wanted to go and see, so he followed Mrs. Chu to the second room.

Zhou Shaojin met several servant women along the way were overjoyed, and two of them were still quietly talking about how the second young master of the second room would reward them when the second young master of the second room was doing the full moon this time, and they could feel their joy from afar. It's just that it's been a long time, and she can't remember what the second room rewarded those servants when Zheng gave birth to her first child. But when she arrived at the Hanbi Mountain House, the courtyard was quiet, no one talked about Zheng's childbirth, everyone looked calm, what to do and what they were still doing, and when they met Zhou Shaojin, they just nodded and smiled as usual, as if they didn't know about Zheng's childbirth.

I didn't expect the relationship between the long room and the second room to be so tense, and I didn't even want to hide the face.

But this is also good, Uncle Chi will not be the ancestor of the second room.

Zhou Shaojin entered the Buddhist hall with a smile, cleaned his hands, and began to copy the scriptures.

But she didn't copy two pages, Xiao Tan happily ran in, and said: "Second Cousin Miss, Miss Xiao, oh, it's the second aunt and grandmother, who gave birth to a son, the Yuan family has come to report the good news, people are still talking to Mrs. Yuan, and someone has already come to report to the old lady." ”

Yes?!

The two families received good news on the same day.

Before Zhou Shaojin could say anything, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

Xiao Tan hurriedly ran out, quickly turned over, and said, "Second cousin, Madam is here." ”

Zhou Shaojin smiled at her.

No matter who gave birth to a son, it has little to do with her. It's a big deal to say congratulations when I will go to Mrs. Guo to say goodbye, and when the Changfang sends someone to give a full moon gift to Cousin Xiao's son, I will take out a set of children's clothes stored at the bottom of the zĂ i box as a congratulatory gift......

She dipped her ink and continued copying the scriptures.

But before she could say goodbye to Mrs. Guo, the long room became lively.

The Yuan family gave a reward of five taels of silver to all the housekeepers and grandmothers in the long room, and the maids of the rank ranged from three to one tael, and the ordinary maids and maids and mothers-in-law each had 500 yuan. As long as the other heads of the house are servant women who come to congratulate, each of them is 400 wen.

Not long after, news came from the second room, and the reward was compared with the long room.
