In the pavilion of Qingzhuyuan in the afternoon, the breeze is coming slowly, and the sun is shining, and it will feel lazy and pleasant to pounce on people's bodies.

And Wang Po patiently taught Erya how to do needlework, that is, how to tailor.

"Mother-in-law, what should I do here, I forgot again."

I was clumsy, so I once again handed the fabric and needle and thread in my hand to Wang Po, and then listened carefully to Wang Po's teachings.

"You stupid girl, didn't I just talk about it, first like this, then like this."

After listening to it, it dawned on me that this was the case.

Then, he took the things back from the princess's hand and continued to work hard to thread the needle.

And when Wang Po saw Erya's performance, she just wanted to say, why is this girl so stupid, fortunately, the material is not a good fabric, so it is specially used to practice her hands, anyway, the color is not good-looking, I don't feel distressed at all.

At this time, I also regret that when my grandmother taught needlework, I didn't listen well, and now retribution has come.

That's it, I'm learning how to be a competent maid, first of all, the female celebrity is proficient, the second is learning to cook, and then I help the master with chores.

While rushing to make the winter clothes that Liu Ming wore when the weather was cold, Wang Po also had to pay attention to the second girl next to her at any time to see how she was doing, and then pointed out to her where she was doing wrong, and explained clearly how the needle and thread should go in different positions, and what techniques to use, etc.

Er Ya did it for a while, although it still didn't feel very skilled, but it looked like it was good.

Wang Po sees Erya's progress in her eyes, and as long as she tells her two or three times, she will basically be fine, and she is not too stupid.

Although she is very rusty now, as long as she practices more and practice makes perfect, it will not be difficult for her to make some clothes by herself in the future.

It's just that some material may be wasted, and I hope she learns faster.

"Mother-in-law, I'm done, look at it, how am I doing?"

Wang Po looked at the unsightly clothes, and felt uncomfortable.

But I don't want to hit Erya's self-motivation, after all, he is only ten years old.

"Remove the threads and do it again! It's the first time I've done this, so it's not bad. ”

I happily said, "Really, mother-in-law." ”

"Of course it's true, let's remove the thread and redo it."

"That mother-in-law, how can I do better."

Wang Po felt, if I don't say it directly, do you want to fly into the sky, it's better, can you wear that thing?

"First of all, clothes are made for people to wear, and if you look at that one, who would want to wear it.

Even if the needle and thread are uneven, it is crooked, you make clothes, not beggar's skin.

Finally, you put it on and try it to see if it will make a fool of you, even if you wear it for a beggar.

Better yet, you're still early, now you should have learned all the needlework first. ”

Hearing Wang Po say this, my whole person was like a frosted eggplant, and I had no energy.

"But you're still young, you can learn slowly, and you'll get better in the future."

As soon as I heard this, I felt that I still had hope, but I really can't, I can learn it slowly in the future, and when I learn it well in the future, I will make a good one for Wang Po to see.

"By the way, mother-in-law, who taught you these things in the first place, and did you make the same clothes as me for the first time?"

Wang Po said with some nostalgia: "I, no one taught me these things, when I was a child, I watched my aunt sew clothes, and then I learned some simple needlework, and later became a maid, and several sisters in the house learned needlework from each other, and occasionally compared the high and low."

Therefore, I have learned all of this by myself, and what I have told you is also the experience I have summarized over the years, and you can learn it for me.

The first dress I made was much better than yours, and although it looked ugly, it was very comfortable to wear. ”

I sneered, "So you're the mother-in-law, and I'm still a little girl." ”

In this regard, Wang Po also smiled and said nothing.

I was quite happy to see Mrs. Wang, and when I thought of what Sister Xin said in the morning, I asked carefully: "Mother-in-law, why are there so few people in our yard, and there are four or five little maids in other yards, not counting the grandmothers." ”

Wang Po said solemnly: "Is it what you want to know?" ”

I suddenly felt like a different person, but I still stubbornly said, "Yes, mother-in-law, why?" ”

"First, because it is not credible, more people do not necessarily have more power, but more people have mixed eyes.

Second, this is also the young master's decision, since the young lady passed away, the young master has dismissed us except for the old people of the young lady's mother's family. ”

I was puzzled and said, "But mother-in-law, why did you choose me to come to Qingzhuyuan?" ”

Wang Po sighed, and then said: "Because we are also aging, our energy really can't keep up, although the young master is usually very self-reliant, to a large extent, we don't need to serve, but someone still has to do chores, such as cooking and sweeping the floor."

As for why you were chosen, the lady in the back kitchen mentioned you to me, and according to Steward Zhao's evaluation of you, there are actually a few better alternatives, but I still chose you, do you know why. ”

I looked dazed, not knowing what to say.

"Because you have shortcomings, you are gluttonous, and you like to play a little clever;

also has advantages, morality, more lively nature, and most importantly, no ambition, is a stupid girl who only knows all day long.

The others are so perfect, as if they have no flaws, the figure and face are all likable, and they can do anything, and they are also very smart, if they don't take the initiative to show it, you don't know what kind of person she is. ”

I cried and said, "Mother-in-law, it's not that my life is good, it's just that I'm simple and easy to understand, and it's not good-looking."

Wang Po lowered her head and thought about it, thinking that it was really like this.

"It's okay, you look ugly now, and when your face grows in the future, you will look good, and it's a sin for people to be too good-looking, so it's too much to understand."

You go and see if the young master is awake, and then you have to read well, the old body doesn't know any of the characters of Douda now, cherish it. ”

Liu Ming would sleep for half an hour, that is, an hour, after eating at noon, but this time was not very accurate, and occasionally he would sleep more or less.

Because of a good night's sleep, the afternoon study will be more efficient and energetic.

Liu Ming's arrangement for his afternoon is usually to read books and practice calligraphy, read some ancient books, and some popular poetry and articles, and practicing calligraphy is a compulsory practice every day.

He practiced words first, and by practicing words for half an hour, he calmed down his impetuous heart.

Then there is the reading of the book for an hour and a half, which can be long or short, and can be arranged freely.
