33, out of the palace
The carriage with a simple structure, with only a few mats, was running on the official road, with a little bumps, but it did not affect Tao Zhiyuan's excited mood.
Also sitting in the carriage with her were Huang Sicai and Zhang Sizhen. Huang Sicai is more easy-going, and treats people well, Tao Zhiyuan chatted with her about the texture of the fabric, and found that the knowledge in this is great, Huang Sicai explained in detail the origin, use and advantages of each fabric, and Tao Zhicai was dizzy when she heard it, Huang Sicai said that it was the way, Tao Zhiyuan knew that this was honed for many years, no wonder Fang Yu said that the work of Si Caifang was simple, which would make Huang Sicai and Si Caifang's female history so angry.
"Okay, you can't change your character of talking too much, you still have to keep it for the female history of your Si Caifang." Zhang Sizhen glanced at Huang Sicai.
Huang Sicai had no choice but to close his mouth and sullen on the side.
"In fact, it is good for slaves and maids to know a little more, and slaves and maids also need to understand the fabric when sewing clothes, and they also need to know a little bit about bead hairpin jewelry, so that they can make a good set of clothes."
A rare smile appeared on Zhang Sizhen's face, and said: "It's good to have such an idea, I have time to come to Sizhen's room, and I'll tell you about the matching and production of the pearl hairpin." ”
Tao Zhiyuan nodded happily: "Thank you, Zhang Sizhen." ”
Zhang Sizhen's name is Zhang Chunyao, and the female historians in the Shanggong Bureau say that she is arrogant and walks alone on weekdays, but she is a skill, if it wasn't for Zhu Shanggong who had more experience than her, Shanggong's position would be Zhang Sizhen.
"Chunyao, this is not like you, last time Fang Yu went to ask you, didn't she give Bang Si Zhenfang?" Huang Sicai said deliberately.
"She didn't really ask for advice, and I didn't want to waste my time." Zhang Chunyao saw that the carriage stopped, so he was the first to get out of the carriage.
Tao Zhiyuan also got out of the car with Huang Sicai, and when she looked up, she saw the four big characters on the plaque: Mandarin Duck Cloth Village.
Yun Jinyuan was already waiting at the door, and when he saw Tao Zhiyuan, although he was dressed plainly, his pupils were still constricted.
"Big brother." Tao Zhiyuan was stared at a little unnaturally by him, "This is Huang Sicai and Zhang Sizhen." ”
Yun Jinyuan came back to his senses and hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The greeting is not thoughtful, I hope you two will forgive me." ”
"Where, Boss Yun, it's better to go and see the fabric first." Huang Sicai couldn't wait to say.
Yun Jinyuan smiled, then took them in, took out the fabric that had been prepared, and let Huang Sicai and Zhang Chunyao choose.
Taking advantage of this time, Yun Jinyuan pulled Tao Zhiyuan to the other side and whispered, "Unexpectedly, you actually ...... Do you know? When I received Qingyuan's letter from home, how excited I was, you actually made a female history, and you have a chance to leave the palace! ”
Tao Zhiyuan had already expected him to want to be crooked, and she said expressionlessly: "Yes, but this is my own business. ”
Yun Jinyuan was a little lost, he didn't know what it was like, he had been running around for business for most of the past half a year, and finally put "Mandarin Duck Cloth Village" on the track, but what he had been waiting for was her.
"This is my chance for you, and you have to take advantage of it." Tao Zhiyuan told Yun Jinyuan, "Don't make any mistakes, then there will be a big trouble." ”
Yun Jinyuan nodded, and at this moment, Huang Sicai said, "Boss Yun, the fabrics you have here are all very good." ”
"Naturally, this is the cotton cloth that is abundant in my hometown of Suzhou, using tie-dye technology, and the patterns are changeable." Yun Jinyuan explained.
"This is better than the fabric in Si Cai's room, if you don't come out to see it, it's really a frog at the bottom of the well." Huang Sicai stroked the cloth in his hand and admired.
"Buying fabrics has always been the job of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and if you buy the best ones, there will be no oil and water." Zhang Chunyao said disdainfully.
"Alas......" Huang Sicai sighed, then picked up a piece of fabric and said, "Just make summer clothes like this, the price is suitable, and the quality is good." ”
Next, the fabric of the winter clothes was decided, and a large-scale embroidery workshop was chosen, and when everything was in order, it was already evening.
Huang Sicai and Zhang Chunyao both got into the carriage and deliberately gave Tao Zhiyuan and Yun Jinyuan time to say goodbye.
"I don't know when the next time we meet, you and Qingyuan have to take good care of themselves." Yun Jinyuan sighed.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of my sister."
Yun Jinyuan took out the silver ticket that had been prepared and stuffed it into her hand: "Take it, you have to use this in everything in the palace." ”
Tao Zhiyuan wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, she really needed money to get through her connections, otherwise it would be difficult to stand in the palace.
She accepted the money, thanked her gratefully, and when she was about to get into the car, Yun Jinyuan called out to her again.
"Anything else?" Tao Zhiyuan turned around and asked.
Yun Jinyuan shook his head: "No, remember to write back if there is anything." ”
Tao Zhiyuan nodded and got into the car.
Watching the carriage go farther and farther, Yun Jinyuan's smile was a little bleak, in fact, what he wanted to say was that he was willing to wait for her, wait until the sky was old, just for her to look back.
**
After a busy day, Tao Zhiyuan lay motionless on the bed, and the sound of dripping rain outside the window sounded particularly charming.
It's raining, spring is coming, and there's no need to work in the cold anymore.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hum a song, drowning in the sound of the rain.
At this time, Yun Yi was also standing at the window, watching the raindrops fall like beads with broken threads, the air was a little humid, and he felt the moisture rushing to his face.
I wonder if that palace maid is the same as him, watching this rain?
Someone put a piece of clothing on him and said with concern: "Your Majesty, don't catch a cold." ”
There was a hint of anticipation in his heart, but the soft voice shattered his expectation.
"Don't get cold, go and rest." Yun Yi turned around and saw Wei Manhui's three thousand green silk hanging behind his back, without a fat powder face, still a charming appearance.
"What about the emperor?" Wei Manhui asked anxiously.
Yun Yi's gaze was a little evasive: "There are still some twists and turns to deal with, you can sleep first." ”
"Your Majesty, you have rarely come to the concubines recently, and you finally came here today, do you want to leave the concubines behind?" Wei Manhui remembered that time of pretending to be sick, who knew that it was not the emperor who came, but the imperial doctor, she vaguely felt that the emperor had changed, if she didn't tie his heart tightly, I am afraid that he would go farther and farther.
"Recently, government affairs have been a bit busy."
Wei Manhui listened, and knew that Yun Yi was shirking her, and her father was handling the affairs of the court, so Yun Yi didn't have to bother at all.
"Is the emperor going to Zhou Cairen? Or go to the Queen? Wei Manhui asked.
Yun Yi frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied: "The person in this world who dares to talk to me like this, except for your father, is you." ”
Wei Manhui was startled, quickly knelt down, and said with a crying voice: "The concubine has no disrespect, please calm the emperor's anger." ”
