Chapter 31: The Yangmei Poetry Club (1)
After a long talk with Shoufu Bingzhu, Qian Jin was invited to stay in Li's house.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Shoufu went to the court meeting early, leaving only a note with the word "wait" written on it.
Qian Jin knew it in his heart. When it came to the matter of the sea ban last night, Shousuke only said that he needed an opportunity. Qian Jin thought about it for a while, if this matter could be resolved in the court, he would not have waited until now. Presumably, Shousuke also hopes that there will be some variables in the situation along the southeast coast, so that he can take the opportunity to play a role in the court.
In the final analysis, the adults in the court have long been accustomed to coming to the court from all directions, so they naturally don't pay attention to this little widow. If they don't bleed, how can they wake them up? It's just that the superiors pointed out the country and stirred up the words, but they didn't know how many people would be killed or injured.
Thinking of this, Qian Jin shook his head, and said in his heart that he was too soft-hearted, and maybe he was not the material to be a politician at all.
…………
Back in the courtyard, Qian Jin couldn't help but smile when he heard that Jin Taiming was leading the Li Liang brothers and sisters to read the "Thousand Character Classic" in the morning. Originally, he wanted to discuss with Jin Taiming about enlightening the Li Liang brothers and sisters, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to take this matter by himself.
Qian Jin simply stood at the door and listened.
Li Liang had studied in a private school for a year before, and his reading was quite smooth, and his words were quite accurate. Li Xiang's voice is very milky, and she often pronounces "zhi" as "zi", which sounds like a unique charm.
After listening to it for half an hour, Qian Jin couldn't help laughing. The three people in the courtyard also looked towards the door.
Seeing that it was Qian Jin, Li Xiang couldn't hold back and rushed over, calling "brother" affectionately, and looking at Qian Jin in his pocket with his eyes.
Qian Jin shook his head helplessly, took out two strings of paper-wrapped sugar gourds from his pocket, and the brother and sister each skewered a string, and said with a smile: "I haven't even spoiled your sister Bao'er so much, I'm really afraid of you." ”
"Brother Qian is back." Jin Taiming said hello.
"Hmm. Brother Jin, I'm tired. Qian Jin said with his fists clenched.
"Nothing left or right. I think they are both good seedlings, and they will become my founding disciples in the future. Jin Taiming said with a smile.
"Where's Sister Hua?" Qian Jin didn't see the silkworm girl, and always felt that something was missing in the yard.
"I went to the market to buy tailoring tools." Kim Taiming replied.
"Oh? Sister Hua is cool. He only mentioned the matter of this tailor shop two days ago, but he didn't expect Sister Hua to be so concerned about this matter, it seems that he is also going to step up his search for a shop, and the style of clothes must be sketched quickly.
Qian Jin was about to go back to the house and leave the yard for Jin Taiming and them to study.
At this time, Jin Taiming took out an invitation from his sleeve and handed it over, saying, "Brother Liao sent someone to send it over." ”
Qian Jin took a look, this invitation is well-made, the front is actually brampant, it is said that three days later, there is a bayberry poetry meeting in the west of the city to listen to the wind and small building, and only Qian Jin was invited, and the signature at the end is 'Accord Layman'. Qian Jin hadn't heard of any Accord laymen, but looking at the font on the post, he must also be an elegant scholar.
"What about Brother Liao?"
"It's a person who came to deliver the post."
"He's got a big shelf now. It doesn't matter, Brother Jin will go with me three days later, and see if he still remembers the friendship of his fellow villagers after he has gained fame. Qian Jin was really annoyed.
Before the palace test, Liao Donglin was a frequent visitor to the courtyard, and the three of them drank and ate hot pot. Unexpectedly, after he won the list, the shelf became bigger, and the next person ran errands for sending an invitation.
Jin Taiming waved his hand and said a little gloomily: "My brother is going by himself, I don't like this kind of occasion in the first place." Besides, I'm just a one-man person, I'm afraid I'll insult him. With that, he went back to his room alone, leaving only a bleak back.
Qian Jin knew that he was sad because of Liao Donglin's incident, so he couldn't force it anymore.
At this time, Li Liang, who had been sitting next to him, asked ignorantly, "Brother, what's wrong with Mr.?" ”
"Let's take my sister to play first, Mr. only teaches so much today." Qian Jin patted Li Liang's head and said.
Li Liang said "oh", but he didn't cheer as before, he only took his sister's hand and walked to the back room, it is estimated that he understood the conversation just now.
Qian Jin thought about it, so he stopped Li Liang and asked, "Do you want to eat bayberry?" ”
Li Liang didn't show what he expected, obviously not knowing what the taste of bayberry was. It's no wonder that bayberry was born in the south, and northerners want to eat fresh bayberry, so they have to send it over quickly, and ordinary people can't afford to eat it.
"Is it delicious?" Li Liangqi said.
"Make sure you still want to eat it." Qian Jin thought of the sour feeling, and couldn't help but feel excited.
…………
When it was almost noon, the silkworm girl came back with a blue cloth bag. When he saw Qian Jin, he was afraid that the ancestor would be hungry, so he went to the stove room to prepare lunch.
Qian Jin helped to light the fire, adding firewood to the stove room, while staring at the silkworm girl, as if intoxicated. The silkworm girl was stared at and couldn't help muttering: Could it be that the master's demon has committed it again?
After lunch, Silkworm Niang was about to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and Qian Jin took Silkworm Niang's hand to her boudoir without saying a word.
The silkworm girl saw that her master was very different today, a pair of thief eyes were always staring at herself, and now she was a lonely man and a widow in the same room, her heart was beating hard, her face was already full of red glow, and her two hands were fiddling with her two braids. She secretly made up her mind, she was already a master, and if she waited for him to want her, she would follow......
As everyone knows, Qian Jin is sketching a dress in his mind at the moment.
Now that the tailoring shop is about to open, he wants to use this bayberry poem to publicize it. The people who come to this Yangmei Poetry Club must be some dignitaries and scholars, and they must be particular about food and clothing. If he didn't take this opportunity to make a splash, he might as well go home and farm as soon as possible. Anyway, there are still three days left, and he plans to make a dress according to the memories of his previous life. As for the model, isn't there a ready-made jasper in the family?
After about half an hour, Qian Jin already knew it, and said with a smile: "It's okay for the past few days, how about cutting a dress for you?" ”
When the silkworm girl heard this, she realized that her master had nothing to think about herself, and she had mixed feelings in her heart for a while. She calmed down and asked, "What kind of clothes does the master plan to cut?" ”
"Now that the weather is about to get hot, why don't I make you a dress, anyway, Your Majesty has rewarded you with a lot of silk and satin, which is just right to use to make clothes."
"My lord, don't dare spoil the fabric. The silkworm girl is very comfortable wearing cloth clothes. ”
"Sister Hua, you have to know how to be flexible. Our tailor shop, no matter what fabric is used, as long as it looks good, someone will pay for it. ”
"Then the old man will tell me the style of the clothes roughly, and I will cut out the style with paper first."
Qian Jin pondered for a while, and then said what he thought in his heart intermittently: "Well, the collar should be round...... The cuffs should be tightened...... The waist should also be tightened...... The hem should be above the knee......"
Silkworm Niang used chalk to outline the lines on the paper according to what Qian Jin said, and Qian Jin consulted on the side. For this skirt, he had only seen a Princess of Monaco wear it on the Internet in his previous life, but he didn't know how to cut it. Thanks to the silkworm girl's thoughts, she described the money in her mind and described it almost as badly.
Before they knew it, the sun was already setting in the west, and both of them were a little hungry.
Qian Jin walked out of the boudoir of the silkworm girl and shouted at Jin Taiming: "Brother Jin, if you don't have dinner, ask the restaurant to send a food box." With that, he went back to the room.
Jin Taiming saw this scene, and couldn't help but stroked his beard and praised: "Wonderful, if Lang has a concubine's intention." After that, he shouted at Li Liang: "Apprentice, go to the restaurant with the teacher to order takeout." ”
…………
The next morning, Qian Jin opened his sleepy eyes and was about to go to the well to fetch buckets of water to wash up.
At this time, Jin Taiming suddenly said behind his back: "Brother, don't say that you didn't remind you as a brother." Remember to use cold water after this intercourse, otherwise it is easy to hurt your body. ”
Qian Jin let out an "oh", and after a while, he understood the meaning of Jin Taiming's words, and couldn't help crying and laughing. Anyway, the more he depicted it, the darker it became, so he simply kept silent.
After breakfast, Qian Jin continued to go to the silkworm girl's room to ponder the skirt. After a night of hard work by the two of them, the style of the dress was finalized, and the rest was the tailor.
The silkworm girl took out a piece of green satin material from the box and held it in her hand and loved it.
"Cut it, it's used to make clothes." Qian Jin said next to him.
The two of them lifted a table and spread the piece of silk on it. I saw that the silkworm girl took a ruler and drew many lines on it with chalk, and then used scissors to cut along those lines.
The rest of the money didn't help much, so he simply went back to his room to make up for sleep.
In the evening, the silkworm girl came to invite the money back to her boudoir, and then tied the door. When Qian Jinzheng was wondering, Silkworm Niang had already shown the results of the past two days.
Qian Jin looked at the turquoise silk dress and couldn't help but be stunned. Except for the waist that was not tightened, the others were not much different from what he thought.
"Let's put it on and have a look." Qian Jin couldn't wait to say.
The silkworm girl compared the skirt to her chest, but she was a little embarrassed, and after a while she said, "Master, you turn around first." ”
Qian Jin suddenly realized, so he quickly turned his back. I only heard a rustling sound behind me, and after half a cup of tea, the silkworm girl whispered: "Master, it's okay." ”
Qian Jin turned around and looked at the jade man in front of him, he couldn't help but feel that time and space were out of order. In front of me, I am no longer the petite and shy Sister Hua I used to be, but I look like an intellectual beauty. The close-fitting silk fabric wrapped around her bumpy body, as if it were natural. is dressed in turquoise, which sets off her like a hibiscus out of the water.
The only fly in the ointment is that the silkworm girl is a little short, so it would be nice to have another pair of high heels. Thinking of this, Qian went back to the room and took a pair of clogs, and took his own cowhide bag containing gunpowder. There are no high heels and no handbags for the time being, so I have to replace them first.
"Put on your geta, grab your handbag, and take a few steps." Qian Jin commanded.
The silkworm lady took a few steps as she said. Qian Jin looked at it, and always felt that something was missing, and saw that there was still a piece of unused fabric on the table, so he tied it into a strip and tied it around the waist of the silkworm girl.
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." Qian Jin said with satisfaction.
The silkworm girl walked to the Western mirror rewarded by His Majesty and looked left and right, and her joy was overflowing.
