Chapter 304: Hands and Feet
There is a large hall on the second floor of the Red Mansion, where the embroidery products selected by each embroidery building are placed for the nobles who come to participate in the event to watch.
Jiang Boyuan accompanied Mrs. Yu to look around, and finally stopped in front of the small partition with Zhuo's family written on it.
"This is the embroidery from the Lady of the Champion's house?"
Jiang Boyuan nodded, "My silver-white robe was made by their family during the New Year's Festival. ”
"I heard you mention it. Yes, yes, my old woman doesn't like those fancy things at this age, but this dress is very good. ”
Old Madam Yu looked at the antique brown flowing color gauze and was obviously very satisfied.
Jiang Boyuan smiled and said, "Grandma, I'll order two pieces tomorrow." ”
Old Madam Yu snorted, "You don't have to be on duty tomorrow?" It's not a shape. ”
Jiang Boyuan hooked his lips, "Go out to handle the case, and it's nothing to take a stroll by the way." ”
Mrs. Yu sighed: "No need, I will move around more by myself, just move my muscles and bones." ”
"That's it."
The two of them quickly entered the private room with the best view.
The hour was not early, and the number of people entering the Red House gradually increased, and everyone went to the lobby to look at the treasures selected by each family, and then they all sat in front of the pavilion on the second floor and prepared to watch the competition for a while.
There are more than a dozen ladies who came to watch the game this time, and there are not many unmarried ladies from various prefectures.
Mrs. Yu sat down and drank a cup of tea, looked at the Zhou family sitting diagonally opposite them, and said to the little grandson next to her, who was not in shape: "Bo Yuan, Miss Zhou is also here, do you want to go over and say hello?" ”
Jiang Boyuan glanced at it and said, "Everyone is a woman, what did I do as a big man, if I met and said hello later." ”
Old Madam Yu frowned when she heard this, "That eighth lady has come here, why don't you give people a smile, what are you doing staring at the desktop." ”
"Yes, Grandma."
Jiang Boyuan sighed silently, and then smiled over there to greet him.
Miss Zhou Jiaba looked a little shy, and actually lowered her head silently when Jiang Boyuan looked at it.
Jiang Boyuan looked at it and felt bored.
Now he finally knew why the old lady dragged him over, and made a special trip to let him see him, but these things are impossible.
Seeing him like this, Mrs. Yu snorted coldly and muttered: "I'm twenty years old, and I don't know what I'm busy with all day, so I don't take my life's major events to heart at all, my head is really painful." ”
When Jiang Boyuan heard this, he sighed and said, "Milk, marriage is fateful." ”
The grandparents and grandchildren here were secretly competing, and at that time, Ah Xiu was taking Lu Wei to make final preparations.
The materials and needles used in the competition in a venue are all prepared by themselves, and there are almost 20 of the contestants.
What level is the embroidery building behind those people, Ah Xiu has also touched it, as long as Lu Wei plays normally, it is not a problem to win the plaque.
The competition was in the middle of the first floor, and after the embroidery frame was checked, the shopkeeper Yang took the young man to the location of Zhuo's on the first floor.
When the shelves are ready, the personnel are starting to play.
Lu Wei picked up the embroidered basket and went downstairs accompanied by the maid.
There are already some people walking around in the dam yard on the first floor, and there are old and young participants selected from the embroidery buildings everywhere, and there is even a man who rolls up his sleeves.
Skills don't discriminate between men and women, and that's really nothing.
Lu Wei came to Zhuo's position under the escort of the maid, and the little maid was helping her to sit down, not wanting to be bumped into by two young men carrying embroidery frames behind her.
"Miss!"
The little maid turned sideways, and the embroidery frame hit her arm, but fortunately protected Lu Wei.
The two young men were very panicked when they saw that they were bumping into someone, and immediately put down their things and bowed down to apologize, and one of them even knelt on the ground.
The little girl rubbed the arm that was hit, and said coldly: "What about the eyes, the top of the long head has gone up?" ”
"Damn it, sister."
The two of them confessed their mistakes vigorously, and Lu Wei pulled the girl's sleeve and shook her head.
The little maid glanced at the two of them unhappily, "Count you lucky, you met my young lady's kindness, let's leave quickly." ”
The two thanked Dai Xie and soon left with the embroidery frame.
"Miss, are you alright?"
The little maid looked at Lu Wei, saw that she shook her head and helped people sit on the embroidery stool, and hung the embroidered basket at her feet on the hook, and said word by word: "The slave and maid will go up first, and you will raise your hand if there is something." ”
Lu Wei nodded and smiled at the little maid.
Seeing that the people in the dam yard were almost seated, the little maid bowed and turned back.
When she came to the staircase, she happened to run into Ah Xiu, who was coming down with someone.
"What just happened?"
Obviously, Ah Xiu also saw the situation below just now, but he couldn't see it comprehensively by blocking the embroidery frame, and he only knew that someone had bumped into it.
"Madam, two guys recklessly hit me, but fortunately Miss Wei is fine."
The maid briefly mentioned the matter, and Ah Xiu looked at Lu Wei, who was already sitting down, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, the handymen of the Chamber of Commerce had already begun to block the yard dam below with wooden frames.
The second floor is full of spectators, and everything can be seen from above when the game starts, and in order to prevent the disclosure of opponents' information, communication is prohibited after the start of the game to ensure fairness.
Ah Xiu took the little maid to the upper floor, and when the gong sounded three times, the game in the field officially began.
Lu Wei couldn't hear the gong, but she knew the rules.
Before coming down, Ah Xiu asked her to explain all the matters clearly, so when she saw the young man carrying the gong and turning in circles while knocking, she knew that she could do it.
On the second floor, Chang was also asking Ah Xiu, "Was there nothing wrong just now?" ”
Ah Xiu lifted the matter up, and stood at the edge of the railing and looked down.
What happened just now seemed ordinary, but how could she have a bad premonition.
In the field dam, many people have begun to thread the needle and are ready to start.
Lu Wei silently thought about the pattern prepared in advance, and also lifted the silk cloth on the embroidery basket and prepared to take out the needle and thread.
It's just that when she saw the black and white embroidery thread in the embroidery basket in the shape of a twist, the whole person was stunned.
This, this is not the embroidery thread she has prepared.
What she prepared was the Zhuo family's unique special silver-faced silk thread, how could it be this kind of ordinary cotton thread, and it should be black and white!
How so?
How things have changed, I checked it when I was upstairs.
Lu Wei's face was very ugly, and the cold sweat on her back crawled all over her back.
She thought of the two young men who had just carried the embroidery frame, and it seemed that it was at that time.
I kindly let them go, but I didn't expect ......
Lu Wei was full of panic, she turned her head to look left and right, and many people had begun to take needles.
Everyone is a competitor, and naturally no one wants to pay attention to her.
Even many people are thinking in their hearts, one less is one, and they have one more chance.
Upstairs, Ah Xiu obviously felt Lu Wei's strangeness, and led people downstairs in a hurry to see what was going on.
