Chapter Seventy-Four: The Contest (1)

Cen Siniang's words made Cen Sanniang more and more puzzled, and asked in a hard tone, "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Call you stupid, you're so stupid! If Gu Zheng hadn't gone to his grandmother to complain, then who would it be? Aunt Li who is afraid of things? Or the timid Liuniang? ”

Cen Siniang saw that Cen Sanniang was still hazy, so she taught Cen Sanniang a superior-class attitude and self-righteous lesson: "If you think about it carefully——— if Gu Zheng hadn't robbed your maid before and caused you to accumulate a belly of anger, you wouldn't have been angry with Liuniang, who had befriended Gu Zheng, and sprinkled all your anger on her, if you didn't pour your anger on her, you wouldn't have accidentally pushed her down!" ”

"If you want me to say, it must be that Gu Zheng is not happy that you are making trouble for her everywhere because of Liu'er, so when he sees that you have made a mistake, he can't wait to poke the matter to his grandmother!" After Cen Siniang finished speaking, she glared at Cen Sanniang with hatred: "I sometimes really doubt that you are not my mother's biological daughter, otherwise how could I and my second sister be obviously very smart, but you are so stupid that there is no solution?" You are the only one who is stupid enough to believe every word Gu Zheng says! ”

Cen Sanniang didn't have so many curves in her heart, and she didn't have as many eyes and thoughts as other sisters, so the words that Cen Siniang and Cen Wuniang said successively soon had a great impact on Cen Sanniang, making her doubt Gu Zheng again unconsciously.

After Cen Sanniang returned to the main room with a trace of uncertain suspicion, she was soon brainwashed by Mrs. Luo with a categorical attitude, repeatedly emphasizing that Gu Zheng was the informant...... After several times, even Cen Sanniang felt stupid and was deceived by Gu Zheng's rhetoric.

And as soon as Cen Sanniang decided in her heart that Gu Zheng was a whistleblower, she had always loved and hated clearly, and immediately refused to see Gu Zheng again——— but the reason why Cen Sanniang didn't want to see Gu Zheng was not because Gu Zheng told the informant, but because she felt that Gu Zheng was insidious and cunning, not only did she dare not do it, but also deceived her with clever words, causing her to trust her in vain!

Cen Sanniang is so old that she hates being deceived and calculated by others, coupled with the words that Cen Siniang instilled in her, after all these things are added together, Cen Sanniang childishly counted all the accounts on Gu Zheng, thinking that if Gu Zheng hadn't snatched Liu'er and Liu'er betrayed her, she would not have found Cen Liuniang to be angry and hurt Cen Liuniang.

After having such a grudge in her heart, Cen Liuniang looked at Gu Zheng more and more unpleasantly, and in order to retaliate against Gu Zheng's deception of her, she quickly made up her mind secretly——— she must think of ways to make Gu Zheng ugly and resentful in her heart!

…………

On the afternoon of this day, the big guys gathered in Wutong Garden to attend classes as usual, and it happened to be embroidery, so Cen Sanniang, who was more good at needlework and female red, immediately seized the opportunity and proudly gave Gu Zheng a battle letter: "Gu Zheng, do you dare to compete with me in embroidery?" ”

In the face of Cen Liuniang's childish provocation, Gu Zheng suddenly felt a headache——— Gu Zheng was not afraid to compete with Cen Liuniang, because winning or losing was not important to her at all, and she had only studied for a few days, and Cen Sanniang had studied for a few days? The starting point is different, and it is unfair to compare.

But is it better or not?

If it was really comparable, would she deliberately lose to Cen Liuniang no matter what?

Otherwise, with Cen Liuniang's temperament, she will definitely not give up.

Just when Gu Zheng was depressed and entangled in whether to take the war book, Cen Wuniang stood up and said a fair word for Gu Zheng: "Third sister, Sister Wanwan has not studied as a female worker as long as you, how can she compare to you?" ”

Although Cen Sanniang looked full of confidence and would definitely win Gu Zheng, she didn't want to take advantage of Gu Zheng, only to see Cen Wuniang finish speaking, Cen Sanniang picked the simplest job to compare: "Then I won't compare embroidery with her, only the simplest insole with her!" This insole is a basic skill that girls have to learn from the beginning, and Gu Zheng has been practicing for some time, right? I don't take advantage of her compared to her. ”

It turned out that when a woman in the Dafeng Dynasty got married, in addition to embroidering a set of wedding clothes by hand, she also had to sew socks and insoles with stitches and threads, and give them to her husband, in-laws and other elders after marrying into her husband's family in the future.

Because these things are to be recognized on the second day of marriage, in front of all relatives and elders as a greeting gift, so these things are equivalent to the bride's face, but also the key to the bride's marriage to the husband's family——— the bride's things are good or not, on behalf of the bride's needle girl red, and the quality of the needle girl is usually the husband's family to measure whether the bride is virtuous and capable.

So this rule made the girls of the Dafeng Dynasty forced by the elders of the family to focus on learning to sew socks and insoles before they left the cabinet. But it is precisely because sewing socks and insoles is the basic skill, which is the simplest job among the needle women, so the elders often require the girls very strictly, after all, as long as they are willing to work hard, it is much easier to learn these two things than to learn those double-sided embroidery, beating embroidery, random needle embroidery, etc.

It's just that Gu Zheng has never been interested in needlework female red, and he has never seriously learned to accept shoe soles, and only barely learned how to sew socks, as well as sew purses and other small objects......

And once Cen Sanniang hates a person, she is really not cute at all when she talks!

I saw that she saw that Gu Zheng didn't dare to respond to the battle, and immediately became a little aggressive: "What? Are you afraid of losing to me and losing face, so you don't dare to compete with me? So you're a coward! ”

Gu Zheng looked helplessly at Cen Sanniang, who was provoking her, and said, "Third sister, I just don't think this competition is meaningful......

Cen Sanniang didn't wait for Gu Zheng to finish speaking, so she deliberately said something: "I know!" Since your mother is a woman who is mixed up in the market, then you must not be much better——— needlework is a craft that only the ladies of the high-ranking families can learn, even if you learn it, it is just to make a show and learn a little fur. ”

"It's understandable that you don't dare to take on my challenge, who told your mother to teach you these skills earlier? I think you will be like your mother in the future, you only know how to be idle and do nothing else. ”

Cen Sanniang didn't mention Gu Liniang, who had passed away, it was okay, and when she mentioned Gu Liniang and Gu Zheng, her face immediately sank: "You said I could, but don't say my mother!" Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind! ”

Cen Sanniang raised her chin when she heard this, snorted coldly, and said, "You promised to show your real skills to compete with me, I won't say it!" ”

After saying that, Cen Sanniang even threw an insole that she had accepted before to Gu Zheng, and said with a conceited face: "This is my insoles, you can take a closer look at them first, if you feel that you can't get such an insole after looking at it, then you can admit defeat directly." ”

Cen Sanniang is not so arrogant, Gu Zheng may let her satisfy her childlike vanity...... But now Cen Sanniang not only has an arrogant attitude, but also looks down on Gu Liniang, which makes Gu Zheng suddenly want to kill her prestige, and make her fall because of her conceit!

So Gu Zheng picked up Cen Sanniang's insole, carefully observed, this observation, Gu Zheng found that the original Dafeng Chaona insole stitching, turned out to be the 21st century cross-stitch——— Cen Sanniang's insole is the same as the modern cross-stitch!

This cross-stitch is Gu Zheng's best skill in his previous life, and even many materials related to cross-stitch Gu Zheng can still recite it backwards! So the technique of accepting soles and cross-stitch was equated, Gu Zheng's mind immediately broadened a lot, and immediately searched for the matching information from his mind——— yes, the common technique of accepting insoles in ancient times is actually the embroidery method of modern cross-stitch!

In ancient times, this technique actually had a name——— "picking flowers".

"Picking flowers" is an ancient traditional Chinese embroidery process, which is widely distributed, among which Hubei Huangmei picking flowers originated the earliest, but also the most representative and influential. Therefore, "Huangmei Picking Flowers" occupies a dominant position in the history of the development of China's picking process, and it is also the representative and collective name of each picking flowers.

The so-called "Huangmei Pick Flower", also known as "Cross Pick Flower", originated in the Tang and Song dynasties and flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Later, this craft gradually spread to Europe and was widely popular in Europe and other countries and regions, mainly in France, Britain, Spain, Portugal and other countries and nobles...... It was not until the 21st century that it was once again introduced into China as a foreign identity of "cross-stitch", and then became popular throughout the country.
