Chapter 117: Pressure
After coming out of Aunt Qin's courtyard and turning into the verandah of the embroidery workshop, Liu Chunmiao asked Zeng Rong Qin Chuxue what he said after seeing this pattern, and whether he had acted excessively.
Zeng Rong didn't know what the relationship between the two was, so he shook his head, "Back to Aunt Liu, Aunt Qin only looked at the patterns for a long time. ”
"Just looking, didn't ask anything else?" Liu Chunmiao stood still and asked.
Obviously, she didn't fully believe Zeng Rong's words, but it was already dark at that time, and she couldn't see Zeng Rong's expression clearly, so she couldn't judge whether she had deceived her.
"yes, oh, by the way, she asked me if I know who I drew it for?" Zeng Rong remembered one thing.
Fang Cai was negligent for a while, and the light was not good, Liu Chunmiao didn't find out that the phoenix was nine-tailed, but now that the pattern is in her hands, sooner or later she will find out, rather than let her ask Zeng Rong at that time, it is better to make it clear.
If it weren't for what Qin Chuxue said, Zeng Rong, a newcomer, how would he know about the embroidered nine-tailed phoenix?
"You mean, she didn't tell you, you wanted to embroider the nine-tailed phoenix yourself?" Liu Chunmiao rearranged the previous conversation and asked.
"Back to Aunt Liu, Aunt Qin really didn't say, when I drew the tail feathers of the phoenix, I remembered to count the phoenix that Aunt Qin painted herself, and saw that the phoenix was nine-tailed, and I also drew two nine-taileds, I knew that this nine-tailed phoenix can only be used by the queen mother or queen, and she didn't answer after listening to it."
Liu Chunmiao believed this.
With Zeng Rong's performance these days and her understanding of Zeng Rong, this is indeed something Zeng Rong can do.
This child doesn't look at the youngest, but he doesn't have a lot of eyes, but fortunately, he has a good heart and is steady, but he doesn't know if he can still retain this kindness and sincerity after staying in the palace for a long time.
Subsequently, Liu Chunmiao asked some things about Zeng Rong when she was in Jinxiufang, and also asked her where her hometown was, and who else were.
While talking, the two arrived at Zeng Rong's place, Liu Chunmiao did not go in with her, and only left after seeing her enter the house.
Amei and Hongling and others saw her come back so late, they would inevitably ask where she had gone and what she had done, especially Amei and Luhe, Amei was purely concerned about Zeng Rong, because Zeng Rong had been out for more than four hours, how could she not be worried?
Green Lotus is pure jealousy, it must be a good thing that he can be taken out alone by his aunt in charge for such a long time, and he didn't even come back for dinner, and Zeng Rong came back intact.
Zeng Rong pinched Amei's hand, Amei didn't ask again, and helped Zeng Rong send the green lotus away, on the grounds that Zeng Rong should wash up, and there will be no hot water for a while.
Zeng Rong didn't hide it from Amei, but she only said that Liu Chunmiao took her to Qin Chuxue to help Qin Chuxue draw a pattern of a phoenix wearing a peony, which took a long time, and Aunt Qin left her to eat, so she didn't say anything else.
The next few days were very calm, Zeng Rong paid attention to it, the pattern of the phoenix wearing a peony was not taken out to embroider it for anyone, and Liu Chunmiao was no different from Zeng Rong, but secretly took care of Amei as always.
On this day, Zeng Rong handed over the last pair of uppers to Liu Chunmiao, and when Liu Chunmiao was waiting for Liu Chunmiao to send her a new job, Liu Chunmiao took out the pattern of the phoenix wearing a peony, and also handed Zeng Rong a roll of cut red satin, saying that he asked Zeng Rongcao to embroider this pattern, and he must embroider it all over.
"Back to Aunt Liu, I haven't done such a big job before, I have only embroidered silk handkerchiefs, purses, small kang screens, and shoe uppers." Zeng Rong politely refused.
Let's not talk about my own ability, I rushed that the other party was Wang Chuchu's aunt, and Zeng Rong didn't want to take this job.
At this time, she really wanted to slap herself, she knew this, what kind of tricks did she draw? Directly said that he would not get it, and he did not embroider a phoenix when he was in the embroidery workshop, which is well documented.
"I believe you, only you can do this job, and I'm afraid that others won't be able to embroider the charm, and I'll waste this pattern in vain."
Zeng Rong didn't expect the other party to attach so much importance to this trick, and it was not good to refuse again for a while, because she understood that Liu Chunmiao was not wrong.
"But, I'm afraid that the embroidery will not affect you, so it's better to do this, after I have painted this pattern, Aunt Liu will find another person to embroider, and finally take the best one." Zeng Rong came up with an idea.
She was indeed a bit stressed.
This is the clothes that the queen wants to wear, in case there is a little flaw or delay in the progress or something, she can't afford this crime.
Liu Chunmiao happily agreed to Zeng Rong.
In fact, even if Zeng Rong didn't mention it, she would do it, but it was absolutely the same mood as saying it from her mouth and saying it from Zeng Rong's mouth, after all, this pattern was designed by Zeng Rong himself, and it had to be handed over to Qin Chuxue for acceptance in the end.
To Zeng Rong's surprise, Liu Chunmiao actually handed over this job to Green Lotus, does this mean that he wants Green Lotus to be a foil?
Because the embroidery technique of green lotus is not stronger than Zeng Rong, not to mention, this pattern is still designed by Zeng Rong, she knows better how to lay out and how to match colors, otherwise, Liu Chunmiao would not have waited for her for ten days.
But Zeng Rong couldn't ask this.
She has seen the uppers embroidered by Zeng Rong, and admits Zeng Rong's embroidery skills, but she appreciates Zeng Rong's design talent more, because the peony pattern on the ten pairs of uppers was drawn by Zeng Rong himself in front of everyone.
They have also painted peonies, and it is not easy to draw ten different peonies, not to mention, to draw ten different peonies on the upper of the shoes, and each one has its own characteristics, or graceful or luxurious or elegant or subtle or graceful or shy or atmospheric, in short, it dazzles their eyes.
The green lotus is even more self-inflicted.
But this time is different, this time there are ready-made patterns, only spelling embroidery skills, and Green Lotus wants to take advantage of this opportunity to suppress Zeng Rong.
Only in this way can she let Liu Chunmiao see her strength and enter the eyes of this aunt in charge.
So, after the green lotus who had made up his mind drew the pattern, he did not rush to match the colors, but stood behind Zeng Rong and studied for a whole day before returning to his embroidery frame.
Zeng Rong naturally knew Lu He's intentions, and the reason why she acquiesced was because she really didn't want to take over this errand, she was for the Wang family before, and now she has another reason, for Aunt Qin.
Although she didn't know what Aunt Qin had with the queen, and she didn't know what secrets Aunt Qin was hiding, she knew one thing that as long as she wanted to continue working in the embroidery workshop, she couldn't offend Aunt Qin.
On the contrary, she wants to please her and win her over.
As for the green lotus, since she wants this glory so much, she will give her it, and whether it is a blessing or a curse depends on her own creation.
