Chapter 371: Delicious in the Countryside

Before Xia Zhiran could think about it, she felt a heat on her wrist, and when she lowered her head, a pair of black hands had already grabbed her wrist.

The other party dragged hard again, Xia Zhiran's center of gravity was unstable, and his feet stepped directly into the threshold of the embroidery room, and Jiang Ruanyan also walked in behind her and closed the door.

It's over, it's over, and now it's completely impossible to get out.

"Oh, we all listened to Miss Jiang, saying that Miss Xia, you are a good person, and a big lady still wants to come to help us do the work, we are all very happy, Miss Xia, you are really good-hearted."

At this time, even if Xia Zhiran was reluctant in her heart, but the eldest sister said so, how could she refuse, she could only half-push and half-let the other party pull her, even if she was very disgusted in her heart.

As soon as everyone saw it, Xia Zhiran came over and immediately gave up a seat, and at this time she realized that there were no tables and chairs in this room.

Instead, they built three steps near the stove, and spread a thin quilt and straw mat on the steps, and everyone sat on the ground and began to sew clothes around the stove.

And the place that the woman gave up, although it was enough for Xia Zhiran to sit, but once she sat down, she would be close to these victims.

Seeing this, Jiang Ruanyan immediately walked to Xia Zhiran's side and helped her.

"It's okay, we're wearing a lot, just sit in front of you."

As she spoke, she pulled a relatively clean straw mat from the side, spread a piece of cotton cloth on it, and took out some cotton pads to put it in, and invited Xia Zhiran to sit down.

Seeing what Jiang Ruanyan had done, Xia Zhiran's heart was instantly full of gratitude, no matter what Jiang Ruanyan had done to her before, but this move was enough to alleviate Xia Zhiran's predicament.

Moreover, the temporary seat made by Jiang Ruanyan is very small, which can only accommodate the two of them, which avoids the situation that the overly enthusiastic eldest sister will take the initiative to come over.

"Okay, don't look at Miss Xia, Miss Xia is the eldest lady, it's rare to go out, she will be embarrassed to be stared at by so many of you, hurry up and work."

Jiang softly hinted kindly, and everyone was a little quieter, but there were still people who kept peeking here.

After that, the fabric and needlework she took were handed over to Xia Zhiran.

"Speaking of which, my mother died early, I haven't learned much about female celebrities, and I don't know how to make clothes, take this opportunity, why don't you teach me well."

Jiang Ruanyan lowered the cloth to Xia Zhiran's hand as he spoke, and the other party could only take it, although the displeasure on his face was still there, but most of it had disappeared.

Seeing such a scene, Jiang Ruanyan was relieved, although she intended to embarrass Xia Zhiran, she didn't want to push the other party too quickly.

If she directly forced the other party to turn her face, wouldn't she have to play?

So in the short period of time just now, she deliberately behaved very well with Xia Zhiran, and even helped her separate seats.

And she is sitting here, in addition to simply wanting to watch a good show, the bigger reason is that she wants to watch Xia Zhiran.

Jiang Ruanyan didn't want to stay with her servants for a while, and when she finished cleaning the small kitchen and came here to look for her, Xia Zhiran took the opportunity to hand over the work to others.

Speaking of which, it can be regarded as the first time that she has been a supervisor, Jiang Ruanyan is quite proud in her heart.

When they picked up the fabric, the eldest sister next to them enthusiastically told the two that the fabric had been cut, and they only needed to sew it and fill it with cotton.

This is the step arranged by Jiang Ruanyan before, of course she knows it very well, and the sketch of making the clothes was also specially drawn for them by Nishizawa with reference to the secretary, so Jiang Ruanyan can read and understand.

But at this time, with Xia Zhiran by his side, he must ask her more to show Jiang Ruanyan's studious and shameless questioning qualities.

Jiang Ruanyan hurriedly took the cloth and came to Xia Zhiran.

"Miss Xia, you are knowledgeable and proficient in female red, please help me see, how should this dress be sewn? There's a wire on it, but I can't read it. “

Jiang said softly and handed over the fabric.

Xia Zhiran looked at it for a while and understood, pointed to the thread and began to explain to Jiang Ruanyan, which thread should be sewn up, and not more than anything.

People who didn't know it for a while saw this scene and thought that the two were sisters.

But in fact, this is not the case, Jiang Ruanyan didn't understand what she heard, nodded and began to sew it up by herself, on the way she glanced at Xia Zhiran several times, and could see that she still disliked the embroidery house and the materials in her hands.

She didn't even put the fabric in front of her, but hung it on the ground next to her, resolutely not letting her clothes come into contact with the fabric in the slightest.

See how long you can protect this expensive garment? Jiang Ruanyan smiled secretly in her heart and began to sew her clothes, during which she deliberately sewed a few wrong places and brought them to Xia Zhiran for advice.

After going back and forth, delayed by Jiang Ruanyan, Xia Zhiran couldn't sew out the prototype of a sleeve before lunch.

When it was close to lunch, Xia Zhiran was already hungry, but she didn't want to ask when the construction site was going to eat, after all, she was a daughter, and if she asked such a question, she thought she was greedy.

And Jiang Ruanyan and the women who did the embroidery work under him were already familiar with the rules of the construction site, and everyone tacitly kept silent, and Xia Zhiran had to be hungry all the time.

When the time was almost up, the eldest sisters all put down the goods in their hands and slowly gathered around.

"Ouch, girl, don't you usually sew clothes? Why is the progress so slow? An eldest sister said bluntly.

Xia Zhiran was instantly shy and irritable.

"It's all my fault, delayed Miss Xia, Miss Xia was originally one of the best embroiderers in the capital, but I was too stupid, I have never been in contact with female celebrities, and there is always something I don't understand, so I have asked Miss Xia many times, and this is delayed."

Jiang Ruanyan was on the side and explained in time.

Although with Jiang Ruanyan's explanation, for Xia Zhiran, it can be regarded as an excuse, but from the eyes of the eldest mother, it can be easily seen that he does not believe this set of statements at all.

As he was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Xia Zhiran suddenly felt happy when she heard it, it must be her servant who came to look for her after cleaning the small kitchen.

But when the door opened, she was disappointed and happy at the same time, because it was not his family outside, but the person who delivered the food.

When she saw those fragrant meals being brought in, she seemed to consciously understand why this room smelled so strange.

"Great, the meal is here, let's eat first." Jiang Ruanyan said and got up.

Xia Zhiran glanced at the food with some confusion, "Aren't we going to the porridge shed?" ”

Her unpleasant words made Jiang Ruanyan couldn't help but laugh in her heart, okay, this little girl went back to do her homework, and she actually knew about the porridge shed.

She patiently stepped forward and helped Xia Zhiran to the side.

"There are porridge sheds, but those are for the workers, and you can see here that most of the embroidery girls are women, so it is much slower to let them walk back and forth in this ice and snow, so I specially approved that they can eat in this embroidery room."

In fact, this is just a special case today, because Jiang Ruanyan knows that Xia Zhiran, as the eldest daughter, must not have eaten like this.

But since she wants to come to the construction site to help with hypocrisy, she must be allowed to experience something different from the habits in her daily life.

Hearing this, Xia Zhiran was really stupid, because it was the same reason why she was shocked when she saw this room.

There are no tables and chairs in this room, how can she eat?

Jiang Ruanyan took her aside, picked up a bowl as big as a soup on weekdays, and then taught Xia Zhiran to do the same with her.

After picking up the bowl, go to the bucket next to it, open the lid and it will contain white rice, and then serve the vegetables in the buckets next to it.

Those buckets, Xia Zhiran had seen, they were exactly the same as the buckets carried by the servants in the backyard of the house, and when she saw these buckets containing food, she felt that her stomach was like a river overturning the sea.

After the meal was served, Jiang Ruanyan took her back to the position just now and sat down.

"Today's meal was good, and there was still oil residue in the shredded cabbage, which was simply delicious." Jiang Ruanyan praised while observing Xia Zhiran.

Seeing her face like a vegetable, Jiang Ruanyan was happy in her heart.

"Didn't the emperor allocate funds for disaster relief? Why is it that most of the dishes here are vegetarian dishes, and there is no fishy meat?

Xia Zhiran tried her best to find an excuse to delay the time to eat, she really didn't want to eat this bowl of rice.

"Miss Xia doesn't know." Jiang Ruanyan introduced to Xia Zhiran the reaction of the victims after learning that the emperor's disaster relief materials had arrived, and then sighed.

"If the victims are to be self-sufficient, and there will be a long time to go before they can live on donations from the state and people from all walks of life like Miss Xia, then they have to be careful about it."

Jiang Ruanyan paused.

"The money for these meals was carefully calculated and planned by the five gentlemen I mentioned to you before, so Miss Xia, please rest assured, although the current dishes are still relatively simple, I believe that the life of the villagers will get better and better in the future."

The ladies were also quite happy after hearing this, and even showed a satisfied smile.

In fact, this is also what Jiang Ruanyan specially prepared for Xia Zhiran today, although the usual meals, although they can't eat big fish and meat, but there are more fishy meats than this.

However, Jiang Ruanyan considered that Xia Zhiran was used to eating the delicacies at home, and it was difficult to come to the construction site once, so he would definitely let her taste the taste of wild vegetables in the countryside.

Looking at the people in this room who were enjoying lunch, Xia Zhiran instantly felt that he was not so hungry.

Jiang Ruanyan urged her several times, but she said that she was not hungry, but she kept calling her family in her heart, why didn't she come to pick her up.

Soon everyone finished lunch, and the person in charge of cleaning soon came, took away all the food that had been delivered, and everyone sat back in their places.

Xia Zhiran began to complain in her heart, because she usually had to take a nap at home.
