Chapter 1168: Ambition
When Xie Mulin was laughing with the sisters, Aunt Dajin also found a favor.
Now Shunxin has entered the sewing room to work. In the past year, she has been immersed in practicing female celebrity kung fu, and now she has begun to bear fruit. Although she is not yet capable of the most complex embroidery work or the production of some demanding coats and gowns, she can do the clothes that her master usually wears every day, as well as accessories such as cloaks, shoes and socks, handkerchiefs, purses, and forehead wipes. When she joined the sewing room, she gave a lot of help to the people who worked in the sewing room, and she soon became like a fish in water. She is a person who is good at making friends and finding out news, as long as she has the heart and wants to please people, it is not difficult at all. When Aunt Dajin came over, she happened to see her talking and laughing with other needlework girls.
This made Aunt Da Jin later call people to the corner to speak, and her tone was not very natural: "The third girl has a big temper and is not sensible, and she sent you away in a moment of confusion, but I know in my heart that you are the most loyal and good boy, without you by my side, I don't know what the third girl will do in the future!" It's a pity that for a while, the third girl can't understand this truth, and my aunt can't convince her. But if you are really asked to do rough work like this, I will not bear it. If you don't dislike it, go to my house and do things first, right?
"Although there is a man waiting for me, the girl has been a little uneasy lately, and when she heard that her wife was going to pick someone, she always wanted to try to climb the high branches. If you can follow the second girl to marry to the palace, it will be a high incense in the previous life! She has the heart to leave, can I stop her? But if she's leaving, I don't have anyone to call here. It's better for you to be my companion, so I know the roots. You also know the situation in my house, no matter how leisurely, I never lose my temper, let alone make any drama for favor. As soon as the third girl gets married, I will be able to live a quiet life with peace of mind. If you come to me, you will never be bullied. My wife treats me generously, and the annual reward is first-class, and I will definitely not treat my own people badly! ”
If it weren't for Shunxin, she would have gotten the right words from the second girl, Xie Mulin, maybe she would really consider waiting by Aunt Dajin's side. Compared with the third girl, Xie Yingrong, Aunt Dajin can really be said to be a pretty good host. Although she is just an aunt, because of the generous relationship between Mrs. Wen of the main house, Aunt Dajin has a good life even if she has long lost her favor. Shunxin planned a marriage for Xie Yingrong earlier, and discussed things with Aunt Dajin from time to time, inquired about the news, and knew that the two had a good temperament. If it weren't for her better future, Aunt Dajin would indeed be able to live a very leisurely and worry-free life.
But now, Shun Xin can only refuse Aunt Dajin: "Thank you Aunt for looking up to me, but my wife has arranged for me to come to the sewing room, and I am quite happy to do it here, why do I suddenly say that I want to leave?" Besides, the wife has already decided on the second girl's marriage candidate, and the second girl has always had an idea, it is impossible to temporarily pick someone from someone else's room, and the aunt's girl will definitely not be chosen, how can I rob the sister of the messenger? I understand my aunt's kindness, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will repay you! “
Aunt Dajin hurriedly said: "You really plan to stay in the sewing room?!" Your needlework is not the best, and even if you stay here for the rest of your life, you will not be able to get ahead, and in terms of decency, it cannot be compared with when you used to wait in front of the girl. Why are you bothered?! No matter how bad I am there, I am still an errand in the main courtyard. My wife is generous, and my life is not aggrieved. You and I will be with me for two years, and then I will slowly pick a suitable person for you, so that you can have a place for life. Your leg is lame for the third girl, if you really can't marry someone for a lifetime because of this injury, let me be at ease?! ”
Seeing that she was sincere, she had to leak her tone slightly: "Auntie doesn't have to worry about me, and I'm not a person who doesn't have a plan in my heart." I am in the sewing room, and although I am not as good as others in terms of the work I have in my hands, I also have benefits that others do not have. I waited for a few years in the girl's presence, and even my wife remembered me, and others were willing to give me dignity, and when I became familiar with the affairs of the sewing room, I would try my best to be a little steward. When it comes to the housekeeper, as long as my wife is willing to be gracious and let me work in the family's workshop, I may not be able to be a female shopkeeper. If there is a day, I will redeem myself and save up a few years of silver, and I may not find a poor boy who is honest and does not dislike me who is willing to marry me. Those days are not necessarily bad. ”
Aunt Dajin calmed down a little: "I see." If you really have this ambition, that's a good thing. When you really plan to go out in the future, tell me, and I will intercede with my wife for you, and maybe even the worth of money will be exempted from you. Although the Xie family has just recovered a little bit of vitality now, there have been many workshops in the past, and most of the girls in the family have been released to be female bookkeepers and shopkeepers after marriage. If you want to do it, it won't be too difficult. You are a smart and capable child, if you really find Ruyi Langjun in the future, you must tell me, I will add makeup for you, so as not to waste the years of your dedication to the three girls. ”
Shun Xin, solemnly saluted Aunt Dajin, and sent the person away.
Aunt Dajin sighed that her daughter had given up a smart and ambitious girl, it was too unwise, but she didn't know how to turn her head and say hello to the needlework room, and found an excuse to look for a peach.
Xiang Tao had already been instructed by Xie Mulin, and willingly let her into her room, closed the door with her backhand, and turned out the abacus, account books, pen and ink and other things, spread them on the table, and pointed them out to Shunxin: "In the next few days, as long as you are idle and I have nothing to do here, you can just come to me, and I will slowly teach you how to plan and read the accounts." If you can really learn this skill before our girl leaves the cabinet, then our girl will go to Mrs. to talk to you about it, and let you take care of some small accounts in the sewing room for a while, and slowly accumulate experience.
The third girl has not yet left the cabinet, and it is impossible for our girl to take you to the palace. But when the third girl goes to the capital, our girl has a firm foothold in the palace and can free up her hands to do something, so she will plan to build a workshop. The workshop may not be large at first, but it must be used by its own manpower. Our girl will find an excuse to ask your wife to come over, and only say that she is looking at the accounts, and then it will be up to you to see your own ability. If you can stand on your own, it is not impossible for the girl to divide a workshop for you in the future. How is it? Do you have confidence in yourself? ”
