In the evening, Master Chen, Mrs. Chen, and Wen Xiaomiao returned to the Ruyi Inn.

Chen Mu took out the reply sent by Cheng Fu and handed it to Master Chen, who opened the reply and said with some excitement: "Shuyun, the day after tomorrow, the general will let us go early the day after tomorrow." ”

"The day after tomorrow? However, just now I heard the boss of Yun Brocade Silk Village say that the day after tomorrow is a banquet specially held by General Cheng for the birthday of the third prince, these three sons are both civil and military, and their appearance is outstanding, and they are even the will of General Cheng, and now it is the age of marriage, and the ladies in the capital admire him a lot, and they are all looking forward to marrying him, I heard that even the only daughter of Prime Minister Qin likes him, and many of the ladies of the big official family who have come to the counter to make clothes recently are specially to make new ones for the banquet the day after tomorrow, I am afraid that there must be a lot of people, Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to go the day after tomorrow? I didn't prepare any expensive gifts. "Mrs. Chen thinks a lot.

"Let's go, the reply post says the day after tomorrow, it's not good not to go, as for the gift, let's go to the street tomorrow to see, when we left Cheng Mansion, the third son was just born, and now we can get married, we are really old." Master Chen touched his beard with emotion.

"Master, look, do you want to let Xiao Miao embroider a sachet of peace for the third son? This kid's ingenuity and craftsmanship are good, if we go to buy gifts, it will not be more expensive than those given by dignitaries, it is better to give something distinctive. "Mrs. Chen has great respect for Wen Xiaomiao.

"My embroidery work can't catch up with my mother's, I'm afraid that if I don't get it right, I will embarrass the old lady." Wen Xiaomiao waved her hand again and again.

Master Chen pondered for a moment, "Xiao Miao, can you come up with a finished product the day after tomorrow?" ”

"Yes, yes, but I'm afraid that the third son of the Cheng family won't look down on it." Wen Xiaomiao felt that there was still a big gap between her and her mother.

"It's okay, Madame is right, maybe the third prince likes the gift of thought, you can embroider a sachet of peace and security, spend a little more thought, and try your best to embroider." Master Chen decided so.

"Well, then I'll go to the embroidery shop on the street and buy some suitable threads." Wen Xiaomiao was afraid that the store would close, so she would do it.

Mrs. Chen took out some silver and asked Wen Xiaomiao to pick a good line to buy as much as possible.

Master Chen asked Chen Mu to accompany Wen Xiaomiao, but Chen Mu disagreed, "Dad, I will go to Chengfu the day after tomorrow, I have to read more books, I don't have much time, let her go by herself." ”

Wen Xiaomiao hurriedly said: "I can do it myself, I don't need Chen Mu, let him read well, and when the time comes, wouldn't it be better to behave well in front of General Cheng and give the old lady a long face." ”

Wen Xiaomiao smiled at Chen Mu again.

Chen Mu also didn't appreciate it

Wen Xiaomiao was afraid that Master Chen and Mrs. Chen would insist, so she got up as soon as she raised her buttocks.

Wen Xiaomiao asked the shopkeeper of the inn where the best embroidery workshop in the neighborhood was and what its name was, and then left the inn.

Wen Xiaomiao inquired along the street again, and it was easy to find Tianxiu Fang.

Maybe it's because it's a little dark in the evening, and the weather is still a little cold, there are no customers in the embroidery workshop, all the embroidery girls are bowing their heads to do their work, an older embroidery girl came over and asked Wen Xiaomiao what she needs, Wen Xiaomiao said to pick some embroidery thread, the embroidery girl led her to another area, Wen Xiaomiao carefully picked the embroidery thread needed, the Beijing embroidery workshop is different, the color classification of the embroidery thread is very fine.
