Chapter 379: Embroidery Workshop
"Yan Ji Xiuzhuang." Yan Qingge read out the four big characters on the golden plaque.
Yan Xiuyu smiled all over his face: "Come in and see." ”
Yan Qingge, who was full of doubts. was pulled in by Yan Xiuyu. I saw the bright four that had been opened up into the store. There are shelves and counters. Several women dressed plainly. Standing behind the counter. Always ready to greet guests.
Some of these women looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old. Some are already in their thirties. If there are any common characteristics. It's just that they're pretty good-looking. Dressed up just as badly.
I saw someone coming. One of them, a woman in her thirties, immediately greeted her. With a smile on his face, he said, "Two guests." You want to see something. We have a lot of embroidery here. The price is also cheap. If the guest has any needs. We can also customize it specifically for you. ”
Then. Update as soon as another woman ran over. Surprised: "You...... The two of you are Yan Xiao Wang Ye and Princess Ning. ”
The woman in her thirties who greeted Yan Qingge in front. The expression on his face froze suddenly.
"Yes." Yan Xiuyu replied simply. Look around. said: "I'll take the lady to have a look." You just have to do your own thing. ”
Suddenly a few hostesses behind the counter. All ran out. Get on your knees. Kowtow to Yan Qingge and Yan Xiuyu. Until Yan Xiuyu repeatedly told them to get up. They respectfully retreated to the side. A look of waiting for you at any time.
Yan Qingge vaguely guessed what was going on. asked Xiang Yan Xiuyu: "This embroidery village is mine." ”
Yan Xiuyu nodded: "Yes." You remember when we got married. More and faster chapters are here. The queen gave you a Zhuangzi. and a house in the inner city? ”
"What does this have to do with Xiuzhuang?" Yan Qingge was puzzled.
"Of course it does. When newlywed. We passed by houses in the inner city. There are a lot of homeless people living in it......"
With Yan Xiuyu's explanation. Yan Qingge finally understood what was going on.
The housekeeper sent by Yan Xiuyu. At first, I only thought about keeping these people in the house to take care of the family. It was only later that I found out. There were too many people inside.
Because somehow. The rumors of the Yanwang Mansion's handling of these people in the house leaked out. A lot of people moved in temporarily. Waiting to be taken in.
At that time, two years had passed since the war. The elderly and sick who could not survive have long since died. But any man who can work hard. Find your next home early. Started a new life. The homeless people who live in these houses. Most of them were women and half-grown children.
The most critical thing is. A considerable number of the women in it were brutally murdered in the war. A woman who gave birth to a mixed-race child. They refused to throw away the child they conceived in October. I can't find a job to do. Barely survive by begging and scavenging. Life has been miserable.
This kind of person. I changed the people next to the capital. Eighty percent will not be taken in. Thankfully. They were facing the Yanwang Mansion.
Yan Xiuyu is the king of Qiu. There is an unshirkable responsibility to the barbarians. Again. The young master of the green boy who is now being raised in the Yanwang Mansion. is also a mixed race of Zhou Man. Even Princess Ning is in charge. was given the surname Yan.
Yan Lutong's life experience. It has long been rumored in the capital. These women have heard about it, too. will gather here. Waiting for the Yanwang Mansion to dispose of it.
Even some men who wanted to take the opportunity to eat at the Yanwang Mansion. was also driven away by their combined efforts. A woman is weak. But a whole bunch of women. The fighting power will definitely be very strong.
So many women. It's a headache to deal with. They can't do heavy work. Also take care of your own children. But just to raise it. but it was in vain. The shrewd butler of the Yanwang Mansion would never agree.
Ultimately. It was still Yan Xiuyu's flash of inspiration. Clapper to find a compromise. Vacate a shop in the outer city of the Yanwang Mansion. Ask them to make embroidery and sell it.
In Yan Xiuyu's impression. It's a woman who can do embroidery. His wife, Yan Qingge, is a first-class embroiderer. Even the eldest princess of Roufu, who was born in gold. There is also the stunt of two-handed embroidery. More and faster chapters are here.
The rest of the house's maids. No matter how clumsy. I can make a beautiful line, too. Or secretly embroider two beautiful flowers on the inconspicuous places on the upper of their clothes.
Yan Qingge listened to Yan Xiuyu's enthusiastic description of his whim. It looked deserted again. No one came to the store for a long time. I can't help but hold my forehead a little.
Yan Xiuyu really took it for granted.
Women are not born for embroidery. A woman who doesn't know how to embroider. There are so many streets all over the street. A girl from a really poor family. I can't even wear clothes. How can the family have spare money to buy needles and threads and ask her to learn embroidery.
"I'll take a look at what's on sale in the store first." Yan Qingge's profit and loss of this store. No faith at all.
There are three female clerks waiting next to them. More and faster chapters are here. The eldest is called Wang Gu. The youngest one is called Third Sister Qiao. Another clever woman in her twenties. Surname Cheng.
Mrs. Cheng hurriedly took out their proud embroidery on the shelf. One by one, show Yan Qingge.
The embroidery is not well arranged. Belly pockets and socks in one place. The hijab and a few ordinary ready-to-wear clothes were in a cupboard again. The colors are also messy. The craftsmanship is even more bizarre. Some of them are quite exquisite. It is no less than the color of the goods on other embroidery villages. Some are simply miserable.
Yan Qingge pulled out a piece from a box of embroidered parry. I saw that there were very basic orchid butterflies embroidered on it. But the butterflies are crooked. Orchid stitches are sparse. Some are squeezed into a big lump. It's hairy on the edges, too. There is no seam at all.
This kind of thing. Yan Qingge couldn't imagine that someone would take it out and sell it. I can't believe that anyone will buy it.
Cheng Niangzi looked at Yan Qingge and looked at this clumsy handkerchief over and over again. The face was red. He quickly explained: "This is sewn by the person in the shop who has just learned to do embroidery." That's why it's not very thoughtful. But the material and the embroidery thread of this veil cost money. In case someone takes a fancy to it. Another entry. ”
The honest Third Sister Qiao hurriedly nodded again and again: "Yes." We can't afford to burden the mother and the prince anymore. ”
Facing such three women. Yan Qingge couldn't say anything ugly.
Before rebirth. She worked in the Shinkoku Mansion as a housekeeper. A shop under the name of the Shinkoku Mansion. Naturally, she also takes care of it. She was physically inconvenienced. I rarely go to the shop in person. For Liwei. Every time I find something wrong. and punished him greatly. Those who are concerned shall be punished with silver. Those who are driven out are driven out.
This is like the case in today's store. Changed her at that time. I'm sure I'll clean everyone up and down. Because these people are not people who do things at all.
Took two deep breaths. Yan Qingge told himself to be as pleasant as possible. turned around and asked Xiang Yan Xiuyu: "There should be someone in the family who understands business." Why didn't anyone come and teach them? ”
It's like the embroidered dog gnawing on the veil. Placed in a handkerchief box. Others watched. Won't buy at all. On the contrary, I may feel that there are problems with the rest of the goods. And so on. It's weird to have a business.
Cheng Niangzi didn't wait for Yan Xiuyu to answer. He knelt down with a thud. Kowtow to Yan Qingge.
". It's all our fault. Update as soon as possible Don't blame the little prince. ”
"Get up. You haven't done business. Many people have never touched an embroidery needle before. Those who don't know are good. I don't blame you. ”
Yan Qingge was more and more pleasant. The more frightened Cheng Niangzi became.
Every month, someone from the Yanwang Mansion will come to check the accounts. The money this shop makes. Most of the time, they don't even care about the food and clothing of these women. Basically. Every month, it is the people of the Yanwang Mansion who post money. to be able to maintain the shop's continued opening.
Business is not good. The women were terrified, too.
Especially when they knew that this shop was under the name of Princess Ning. It's even more worrying.
Rumors are inside. Princess Ning is a powerful person. Fought in the Northland and slain the enemy. took her husband Yan Xiaowang to death. There is no half of the concubine in the family. I heard that when I was at my mother's house. He is not very respectful to his own father. It's a bit of a disbelief in the six relatives.
Yan Xiuyu actually didn't know. The people of the Yanwang Mansion. In fact, these women were not expected to make any money. It's just that when I have a kind heart, I raise a few more people who are unable to live.
They opened this shop. Earned or not. It doesn't matter. Anyway, they can't waste a few mouthfuls of rice. Ten times more population. The monthly cost is not as much as the money for the sesame oil offered to the temple. It should be regarded as a relief for the masters.
Interrogation of Yan Qingge. Yan Xiuyu couldn't answer at all. There is nothing but the housekeeper in the house. In big things, it is the eldest princess of Roufu who is in charge.
After reading the front. Yan Qingge looked at the back again.
Those women and children knew that Princess Ning and Little Prince Yan were here. Hurry up and tell me one by one. I'm telling you. All of them came to the courtyard as quickly as possible. knelt on the ground in front of Yan Qingge.
Look at these noodles and have dishes. Poorly dressed women and children. The anger in Yan Qingge's heart was extinguished. It all turned into a knot.
It seems that no one has done anything wrong. But in the end, it turned out to be wrong. This thing. It has to be resolved. Yan Qingge will feel comfortable.
Yan Qingge endured it. Tell these women and children to get up and speak. He called an older child to him for questioning.
The child was eleven or twelve years old. It's a half-sized kid. A mouth is two tiger teeth.
"Where are you from? What do you do at home. Yan Qingge asked.
"My father is a private school teacher. It took 20 years to take the exam, but Xiu didn't get in. Then came the year of the Great Disaster. Our family fled to the capital. My dad writes paperwork for other people. My mother does the laundry for others. It's only been a few days. And the barbarians came in. The boy calmly replied, "I am the only one who survives." Then I was so hungry. I heard that the prince had set up a good hall. Just go in with the people. There are a lot of children in there every day. But the number of people is only very small. I've heard people say that. It was sold to the barbarians as a sacrifice by the people of the good church. Escaped with a few other companions. ”
I didn't expect this kid to have such a background. It also involves the crown prince. Yan Qingge was stunned for a moment. He said, "Your father is a master. Are you literate? ”
"I will write my own name." The boy turned his face slightly. Before the disaster year. He learned hundreds of words from his father. I was even able to read a book simply. But one disaster after another. Let him forget all that knowledge. The only thing I remember. It's about writing your own name.
Yan Qingge could see the child's stiffness. I sighed in my heart. Turning back to Yan Xiuyu, he said, "Brother Yu." Since this embroidery workshop is in my name. I want to manage it myself. You see, okay. ”
