Chapter 64: An Abnormality

Aunt He is different from other mothers in the Qin Mansion, she is neither the companion of any master, nor is she bought by the family, she is a serious handicraft lady, she was widowed at a young age, and only one daughter has already married and had children.

Usually in a house like the Qin Mansion, there will be two chief managers, one of whom is the head of the outer courtyard, who is responsible for the office of the office, the study, the changing room, the stable, and the property of the family shop and the grange; An inner courtyard supervisor who is in charge of the storeroom, kitchen, sewing room, slurry and other places related to daily life.

This Mrs. He is the head of the needlework room, and she is in charge of three needlework girls and more than 20 needlework girls. All the clothes of the owners of the Qin Mansion all year round are made by the hands of the needlework room, this Aunt He is not only good at craftsmanship, but also has a set of teaching people, and the girls under her are good at needlework, and some are good at embroidery; Some are arbitrary; Some are particularly good at drawing some ingenious patterns to enrich the patterns of clothes.

Of course, Qin Daixin only found out later, although she didn't know these things yet, Ruyi's tone and attitude had already given her a good hint, and she knew the difference between treating this Aunt He and treating other mothers.

Before the two finished speaking, Qin Daixin had already gotten up, and Ruyi also felt that there was enough time, so she quietly took a step to the side, leaving the position to Qin Daixin.

Qin Daixin looked like a lady at this time, and her usual shrewdness was completely gone, but she had a bit of femininity in it.

"I have long heard that there is a lady He who is skilled in embroidery in the house, and she has never had the opportunity to see her, and today she finally got what she wanted." After saying that, Qin Daixin gave a half-salute to Aunt He.

The words are good, Aunt He is naturally comfortable, but she can't bear this gift. Although she is more noble than any mother in the house, in the final analysis, she also eats the Qin family's food, how dare she let her master salute her? So she skillfully stood to the side, and said busily: "Where can the little woman accept the gift of the third lady, don't dare to be." ”

is neither humble nor arrogant, the rules are polite, and at first glance it is the one who has been in the big portal.

"Lady is polite." Qin Daixin took the lead in sitting down on the chair, and asked Aunt He to sit, but Aunt He refused, so Qin Daixin had to let Ruyi move a three-legged stool for her.

"Auntie is ...... to come today" The politeness has already been polite, even if she doesn't mention it, Aunt He will also lead the topic to the topic.

"Today, the little woman is here to make some clothes for the third lady, and she is going to make some clothes to wear during the New Year." He speaks cleanly and is a very crisp person.

Ruyi knows the days in his heart, and he comes to measure them at this time every year, but why is Aunt He personally measuring this year?

Qin Dai was curious: "Mother asked you to come." ”

"Exactly." After speaking, he stood up and said to Qin Daixin, "Miss No. 3, get up, little woman, this will be tailored for you." Then he went up to the needle lady and brought a red thread rope.

Qin Daixin realized that the needle lady came in with a tray, and there was nothing on the tray except for the red rope. She stood up according to her words and asked Aunt He to take care of her up and down.

No one knows the craftsmanship of Aunt He, a pair of eyes are more poisonous than a ruler, and you can make clothes that fit just by visual inspection. Because it was the first time to measure Qin Daixin's weight, he didn't want people to look at himself arrogantly, so he brought a red rope to mean it.

After tossing for half an hour, Aunt He finally finished the measurement, handed the red rope to the needle lady on the side, and said to Qin Daixin: "Does the third lady have a special preference for colors and materials?" The lady ordered the group to make eight sets of new clothes, both inside and out, and the little woman did not dare to slack off, thinking that it would be better to listen to the young lady's wishes. ”

Is this asking for your own opinion? Eight outfits? Isn't it a little too much? Qin Dai glanced at Ruyi, and the latter understood and asked aloud: "Isn't it the eldest lady who makes clothes in the usual mansion?" What's the ...... today? Besides, every year during the Chinese New Year, the masters of each courtyard make four sets of clothes, how can there be four more sets this year? I don't know if everyone has it, or ......" Ruyi is a little puzzled, Aunt He's eyes are extremely poisonous, not only the accuracy of the measurement, but also the ability to choose materials is unmatched, as long as she has seen this person at a glance, she can pick out the materials that are suitable for this person, and can make clothes suitable for this person. In the past few years in the Qin family, she has never been on a business trip, and even the Fang family is full of praise for her craftsmanship, and she is always in charge of making clothes every time she changes seasons. Even if someone has any special favorite colors, they have privately passed on the word, except for the Fang family and Fang Wanru, no master of the Qin family can bring Aunt He to say such a sentence. Besides, every year, the young ladies and sons of each courtyard make four sets of clothes, why are there suddenly four more sets this year?

Aunt He didn't hide it, and replied: "Madame said, in the winter of this year, the young ladies and sons in the house all made clothes, and it stands to reason that the third lady should also have them, but there were too many things at that time, and Madame was far away, so I didn't care about it." Now that I am going to make the clothes for the New Year, my wife will ask me to make up the clothes for the previous winter, so as not to lose the third lady. ”

I see.

Qin Daixin hooked the corners of her mouth, and smiled sarcastically quietly, where are there too many things, and she doesn't care about it! Fang Wanru's little bit of caution, can she still not know? It's just that there are not many things, so what if they are not far away?

Ruyi smiled: "Madame has a heart, but I didn't do it at the beginning, our young lady has grown a lot, and it is also a good material for Mrs. Bai Blind to really do it." After speaking, he gave Qin Daixin a look.

"I prefer clothes with light colors, but I don't have any preference for patterns, just take the idea, I can naturally trust your craftsmanship." Qin Daixin only thought about it for a moment, and then said her preferences.

It is always a joy to be trusted, and Aunt He's face, which has always been respectful, also flashed a smile, and said: "I have written down the matter of the third lady, and I will send it over when the clothes are ready, if there is anything I don't like, the little woman is changing." The latter sentence is just a modest remark, how could Qin Daixin not hear it!

"Where did the eldest mother say, I am not uncommon to see my grandmother's and mother's clothes, which one is not ingenious, how can I not like it!" Qin Daixin was sincere this time, Fang Wanru is a person who loves to dress up, and her clothes and jewelry are exquisite.

When Aunt He heard this, she was naturally used in her heart, but she still looked respectful on her face, and the two said a few more words, and Aunt He got up and said goodbye.

Qin Daixin asked about Ruyi He Auntie, but the evaluation she got was "a person who is a person and has a good craft", except for going to Fang and Fang Wanru to receive errands, she rarely goes to the courtyards to walk around.

Doesn't such a person, who uncharacteristically came to himself, explain something? Ruyi was instructed by Fang Wanru, why did she change her usual routine and suddenly become enthusiastic about herself?

Qin Daixin's slender and smooth fingers tapped the table with a thoughtful expression.

Ruyi had already become accustomed to Qin Dai's appearance when she was in deep thought, and looked at the young lady pondering again, knowing that she also felt that this Aunt He was strange, she couldn't bear to interrupt her train of thought, and was worried that she was overworked, so she didn't make a sound after thinking about it, and went down quietly.

Fang Wanru has always been secretly ruthless to herself because of the relationship between Jiafu, when Qin Fengge dealt with herself, although she didn't help much, she also opened one eye and closed one eye and acquiesced, she has always secretly suppressed herself, how could she suddenly go against the norm and show favor so grandly?

Did something happen during this time that I didn't know about?

"Ruyi." Qin Daixin shouted Ruyi and said, "Follow me to thank my mother." ”

Qin Dai sneered, I want to see what tricks this lady is playing.

ps: The collection is so pitiful, plus plus and minus are always wandering, dear ones!
