35. Most of the men in this world are blind
When I saw that flower, I had actually guessed who this person Wu Yong had brought.
In fact, I was a little unhappy, after all, I didn't want to publicize the matter of saving Wu Xin, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.
The matchmaker's mouth is the least open, and it is also the easiest to add oil and vinegar.
Wu Yong had already seen us, and immediately rushed up, grabbed Wu Xin's hand and asked, "Sister, how do you feel?" ”
"I'm fine." Wu Xin said with a smile.
Wu Yong breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at me: "Miss Meng, I Wu Yong can't repay your great kindness, even if you have something in the future, I am willing to do it for you." ”
I waved my hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me first, what the follow-up result will be, it depends on Wu Xin himself, it's not early, I'm tired, let's go back and rest early." ”
"This is Miss Meng, I didn't expect you to be so young." The matchmaker had already stepped forward and greeted me, "You saved the lives of Xiao Yong and Xin'er, as their elders, I have to thank you for them." ”
As she spoke, she took out a big purse from her cuff and was about to stuff it into me, I hurriedly waved my hand: "You guys, don't do this, I just did what I could, I appreciate your kindness, but I'm really tired now and need to rest." ”
I said this very vividly, with a strong sense of sending off guests.
The matchmaker was a discerning woman, and immediately said, "Then when Miss Meng is rested, we will come back another day to thank you." ”
"Yes, yes, we'll come back another day." Wu Yong replied repeatedly.
I nodded at them and turned back to the shroud shop.
It was so tired that I didn't notice two people standing in the shadows at the end of the street.
The white-robed man looked at me and said, "Third brother, you can be too calm, right?" You're not afraid ......."
"Afraid of what?" The black-robed man said indifferently, "This path was chosen by herself, I have been sure again and again, and she said that she will not regret it." ”
"You didn't tell anyone clearly, you are, this is," the white-robed man didn't think of a good word for a while, but he said after a long time, "You just dug a trap and waited for her to jump into it by herself." ”
The black-robed man glared at the white-robed man and turned to leave.
By that time, I had washed up, collapsed on the bed, pulled the quilt on, and slept in the dark.
After a few days of peace, I thought that Wu Xin's matter was over, but I didn't expect that three days later, Mrs. Wu stepped into the shroud shop.
At that time, I was lying on the counter to draw embroidery surfaces, although I am no longer a first-class embroiderer of the Yin Division, but this craft can not be lost, and the basic skills have to be practiced every day.
Mrs. Wu walked in with a smile, sat down next to the counter, and said, "Miss Meng, we meet again." ”
I looked up at her, and my heart tightened for no reason, but I still said, "Hello." ”
"The last time I was in a hurry, it was in the dark again, and I only thought that Miss Meng was slim, but now that I look closely, I really am a living beauty." Mrs. Wu covered the corners of her mouth with an embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and she was in her sixties, and when she smiled, the flowers trembled, and even the big red flower on her head seemed to have lost its color.
I smiled embarrassedly: "It's just a pair of skins, whether it's beautiful or ugly is the gift of my parents." ”
"Miss Meng is really good at talking." Mrs. Wu raised her eyebrows, leaned closer and asked, "I heard Xin'er say that Miss Meng is now eighteen years old, and she can be regarded as a big girl, but is there a candidate for marriage?" ”
My brows furrowed almost invisibly, and I shook my head: "I don't have any plans to marry for the time being, besides, it's taboo to do my job." ”
"What Miss Meng said, no one wants you to be so beautiful, then most of the men in this world are blind." Mrs. Wu quipped, "I am familiar with all the sons and brothers in Lin'an City who have good conditions, and there are good candidates for Ming'er, so I will keep an eye on Miss Meng." ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but I really want to spend a few more years with my grandmother." I refused without hesitation.
Mrs. Wu didn't continue to dwell on this topic, her eyes glanced at the unfinished embroidery in front of me, I just wanted to cover it, she had already said: "Miss Meng is not only beautiful, this embroidery is also so beautiful, she is really a talented woman." ”
"It's hard to get into the hall of elegance if you draw and play." As I spoke, I folded up the embroidered surface and tucked it into my sleeve.
"It's so good at drawing and playing, if you get serious, it's amazing." As she spoke, she lifted up the bag she had been holding in her hand, took out a bright red wedding dress from it, put it on the counter, and then took out a pair of embroidered noodles from the sleeve cage, unfolded it, and put it in front of me, and said, "I came here today, on the one hand, to thank Miss Meng for saving my grandchildren's lives, and on the other hand, I also have a reluctant request. ”
She paused, and my gaze was glued to the unfolded embroidery surface.
It was a golden feather, embroidered with a double-sided needle, and it was very beautiful.
Mrs. Wu picked up the embroidered face, handed it to me, and unfolded the corner of the folded wedding dress, pointed to a small hole in it and said, "This wedding dress was ordered by one of my guests at my place, and I will come to pick it up before dark today, but I never thought that I was bitten by a mouse last night. ”
"Fortunately, Xin'er told me that Miss Meng's embroidery skills are superb, let me ask you for help, Miss Meng, help me, the reward is good."
She looked at me so earnestly that it was hard for me to open my mouth to refuse, and she hurriedly took out embroidery needles, gold threads, and pin-hoops, and everything was ready.
