Chapter 115: Mission

Xia Zhi touched the silver ticket in his arms, which can be regarded as the Tian family's highest income now. Originally, Xia Zhi was still worried about what the opinions of the people in the family would be when Lin Yunlei and Ma Shang said one thousand taels, after all, Ma Shang was an official and took great care of the Tian family, even Lin Yunlei was, although Xia Zhi hated him, from the list of actions he did after he arrived at the Tian family, except that he liked to embarrass her, everything else was not bad. Especially in the matter of sending the land deed this time, Xia Zhi obviously saw Lin Yunlei glaring at Ma Shang, presumably this idea was not proposed by Lin Yunlei.

Maybe it's because the Tian family has seen a lot of Xia Zhi's efforts for the two screen flowers, maybe it's because the Tian family knows that the rich flowers before the evaluation screen sold for five hundred taels, and the two pieces this time are more exquisite than the last time, so the money is naturally more, anyway, the Xia Solstice sold the screen very smoothly this time, and the Tian family didn't even have a surprised expression, it seemed to take it for granted.

Where did Xia Zhi know that everyone in the Tian family was dripping blood in their hearts at this time, especially the female compatriots of the Tian family, watching Lin Yunlei and Ma Shang put the screen on the carriage, and they couldn't wait to run in front of the two of them to take the screen back, those two screens were so beautiful and exquisite, they were really reluctant to sell them.

Of course, they also know that the screen is embroidered on the summer solstice, and naturally the summer solstice has the final say. Besides, two people pay 1,000 taels to buy two screens, which is already a very high price. So they resisted their impulse and watched as the two of them carried the screen into the carriage.

The family watched the summer solstice embroider the stitches and threads, and watched the summer solstice in order to practice the words at night, and embroidered the screen after practicing the words, looking at the summer solstice when the farm was busy. I'm done with a day's chores. For embroidery work. We have to keep up the good work. They unanimously agreed that these two screens had poured too much effort into the summer solstice and were worth so much money. So when Lin Yunlei and Ma Shang talked about the price, everyone didn't intervene, and Tian Laosi even felt that his daughter's things had worked hard for a few months, and he was simply selling people, which was too cheap for those two.

A group of people bowed their heads and returned to the house without saying a word. Xia Zhi saw everyone's pensive expressions, and even the children in the family frowned, thinking that it was because the family had such a large income, and they were so happy and sad for a while, they couldn't laugh, they could only cry?

"Ah Qiu, what's wrong? Why do you all look sad? Xia Zhi didn't understand why this family was not happy that the family had earned money, so he could only grab Tian Liqiu, who was also frowning beside him, and asked.

"Sixth sister, I can't bear those two screens, those two screens are so beautiful! Ah Qiu likes it so much! Tian Liqiu was very conflicted at this time. On the one hand, I like screens, and on the other hand, I feel that since the summer solstice has sold screens. She should have listened to Xia Zhi's words, not to mention that now that the screens have been pulled away, she shouldn't have said such things in front of Xia Zhi, but she really couldn't help it, from the moment the screen was pulled away just now, she felt annoyed and regretful in her heart.

"Engage in a long time, you feel sorry for my two screens! I thought there was something terrible that trapped us Ah Qiu! The summer solstice scratched Tian Liqiu's little nose, and felt that Tian Liqiu was so cute, "Okay, don't frown, if you wrinkle again, you will become a little old lady immediately!" Isn't it just two screens, the sixth sister left a pattern, how about embroidering one for us Xiaoliqiu in the future? "Not only did these two summer solstice paintings leave a pattern, but even the previous pair of rich flowers bloomed, and the summer solstice left a pattern, just for the people of the Tian family to practice in the future.

Speaking of which, the women of the Tian family have been learning Suzhou embroidery for more than two years, and the four daughters-in-law of the Tian family have been able to embroider some simple things. Wang was the most anxious of the four, but he learned the best. Because from the beginning of her pregnancy, Li took over Wang's work by herself, and at that time she was unstable in her pregnancy, mostly sitting and lying down, so that Wang had more time to embroider work.

The Zheng family was delayed a lot of time by housework and farm work, but even so, Xia Zhi felt that they had made a lot of progress, at least some small patterns on handkerchiefs could still be embroidered. And Zheng's they also know that they don't have much time to practice during the day, they can only contact more at night, once after practicing calligraphy on the summer solstice, they saw that the lamp in Zheng's house was still lit, so they looked over curiously, and saw that Zheng's eyes were about to close to the cloth with his head down, Xia Zhi looked at Zheng's eyes were about to close to the cloth, and quickly stepped forward to grab her needle and thread, and persuaded her to sleep, it is a good thing to have a skill to be around, but you can't ignore the body, if it goes on for such a long time, Xia Solstice estimates that Zheng's eyes will have problems in less than a year.

With Zheng's precedent, Xia Zhi inquired about a few uncles the next day, except for Wang's to take Tian Jingjing, the other two uncles were lit and boiled until midnight, Xia Solstice quietly instructed a few uncles not to let the aunt practice embroidery until midnight, and told a few people about the harm of doing so, and several uncles unanimously promised not to let them do this, and Xia Solstice rested. Of course, the fourth father of the summer solstice is also among these people, and after that, the summer solstice has never seen the Zheng family still lighting the lamp in the middle of the night, presumably the same is true for a few uncles.

"Really? Sixth sister, will you still embroider such a screen in the future? Do you want to give me a pair? Tian Liqiu listened to Xia Zhi's words and immediately jumped three feet high happily, and his voice couldn't help but get louder, and the rest of the Tian family's sisters couldn't help but stretch their brows when they heard this, and their eyes were shining as they looked at Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi saw everyone's expressions, and suddenly realized, these people will not be distressed about the two screens that were sold, it is too abnormal, they are not happy to sell for money, but they are sad for what they sold, what kind of truth is this, it seems that her family is really wonderful.

"You don't all frown because you can't bear that screen, right?" Thinking like this in his heart, Xia Zhi also said it.

"Hey...... Sixth sister, we all like those two screens, can you ...... "embroider one for us too, Tian Xiaoman didn't say anything, after all, it took nearly a year to embroider these two pieces on the summer solstice, although she is not embroidering most of the time, but such a delicate screen, it still takes a lot of hard work to embroider it. There are so many of them here, and there is no one pair, so it will be embroidered until that year and that month. The sisters of the Tian family knew what Tian Xiaoman had not said, and they all looked at the summer solstice expectantly.

"Don't look at me, embroidering such a screen is not an easy thing, there are so many of you, one person I have to embroider for many years, in saying that you have learned a lot of Suzhou embroidery, from the embroidery of the small piece of embroidery, have been embroidered well, it's time to learn to embroider large pieces, I was going to wait until the winter to let you learn, even if you all want such a screen, then next time let the uncle buy the materials back for you, everyone will embroider the screen wholeheartedly, anyway, the embroidery frame is there!"

Xia Zhi remembered that he wanted the Tian sisters to try their hand when they were embroidering the screen before, but now it is not a good excuse.

"I also have the pattern here, whether you want to use your own pattern or come to me to get it! Now our family is not short of that money, you can put it away, of course, if you want to make some private money, it doesn't matter! But from today onwards your task is to embroider screens. ”

Xia Zhi crackled and said a bunch of words, several sisters of the Tian family didn't understand how to change from giving them a pair of screens to letting them embroider a screen, thinking of this, the Tian family sisters couldn't help but wail, among them, Tian Xiaoman was the most, full of 'my life is really bitter', and Xia Zhi couldn't cry or laugh when he saw it.

Interrupted by the words of the summer solstice, the adults of the Tian family are not thinking about things, looking at the granddaughter (daughter) who is wailing together in two or two, they are also crying and laughing, these little babies, usually practice embroidery like a desperate Sanlang, this time the summer solstice arranged work for them, they lacked to play treasure, each crying father called the mother, shouting their scalp jumped and jumped.

"Xia Solstice, this, can your sister's embroidery work, don't waste things when the time comes, but you can't draw it!" Wang is very worried, this embroidered large screen, just the cloth money, the thread money is estimated to be a few taels of silver, can these little babies do it, their embroidery skills and the summer solstice must be far behind!

"Auntie, rest assured, I let a few sisters and sisters embroider large screens, and I am still sure of their degree, although I can't get along with the senior old embroiderer, but as a novice, my sister and sister are already very good, and besides, there is still me, if there is a problem, I am helping the lining, there will be no trouble, and there will be no waste!" The five adult women of the Xia Zhi Zhi Daotian family were all very concerned about this issue, so they talked about this problem specifically.

"That's good, that's good, I'm afraid that your sister and they will spoil things, if you help us, we can rest assured!" Obviously, the Wang family paid more attention to the words behind the summer solstice, and as for the previous words, it was over. And this sentence can be seen even more, there is nothing to say about the embroidery skills of several people on the summer solstice.

"Uncle, if you want to embroider, you can also embroider, although your embroidery skills are still poor, it should not be difficult to embroider a large screen!" Xia Zhi saw Wang sitting on the stool, holding Tian Jingzhen with his left hand, and he didn't know when Lu Dao had already taken the embroidery in his hand.

"No, no, no" Wang waved his hand anxiously after listening to Xia Zhi's words, "I'm still practicing for a while, I can't get home in this craft, I don't dare to touch that thing!" ”

"That's okay, if the eldest aunt wants to embroider one day, tell me, and I'll talk to you about how to embroider a large piece better!" Xia Zhi saw that Wang was sweating anxiously by her words, and he didn't force her, but just explained, looking for her when he wanted to embroider.

After Xia Zhi finished talking about the screen, he suddenly remembered that the silver ticket of two thousand one hundred taels was still on her, and I don't know what Lin Yunlei thought, and Lao Luotou, the parent, was here, and the money was not handed to him, but was stuffed to her, is it because she is literate and understands the denomination on the silver ticket?
