Chapter 21: Sleepless
Yu Wanning raised her eyes and smiled at Zhao Qi and said, "I've worked hard for you, let's go and rest first, and I'll call you again in two days to explain another errand to do." ”
"Yes."
Zhao Qi didn't ask much, bowed slightly, and went out.
Yu Wanning's gaze wandered slightly on Zhao Qi's back, then he turned around and picked up a pen to write a few sets of numbers on a piece of paper and handed them to Xuejing.
"I remember that there are still some stone blue materials in our room, you take it with this piece of paper to Zhiqi, let her make two men's clothes, let her as soon as possible, two days later, one ready-to-wear, the other can be a little slow, but not too long."
"Miss, is this going to be rewarded to Steward Zhao?" Xue Jing's brain turned extremely fast, and he immediately guessed Yu Wanning's thoughts.
However, she still lit a wax for Zhiqi in her heart, and she wanted it in two days, which is the rhythm of Zhiqi's sleeplessness.
"You'll guess."
Yu Wanning smiled and said, "Zhao Qi will often run errands outside in the future, and it will not work if he doesn't dress decently." ”
"Then I'll wait for Miss to finish her meal and then go to Zhiqi." Xue Goggle folded the paper in his hand and put it away, then opened the food box.
"It's okay, I'm really hungry."
Although Yu Wanning shouted that he was hungry, he remembered the pills in the medicine stove in his heart, so he only hurriedly picked up a few mouthfuls of food, and then went back to the pharmacy to get busy.
Zhiqi was confined by Yu Wanning for the past two days on the grounds that she was afraid of being sick, and she was really a little depressed when she watched the two little girls who lived with her chatter in and out freely every day.
Originally, she lived in a bright room, but two years ago, Yu Wanning picked Xue Jing and Mo Li to serve by her side, so she let her vacate the house for Xue Jing and Mo Li to live in, and she could only live with two rough girls.
Not to mention the squeezing, because the room is low and the light is insufficient, so she has been doing needlework non-stop for the past two days, which can be regarded as suffering her.
From morning to night, I could only lean at the window to borrow light, and after holding on to one position for a long time, even my whole body was stiff and sore.
But Zhiqi didn't dare to be lazy, for fear that Yu Wanning would be unhappy, so she deducted her monthly routine, and two months ago, her parents handed her a message, saying that her brother was old enough to marry, but it cost a lot of money to marry.
The family is a tenant for others, and at most they can barely eat enough for a year, and it is impossible to raise money, and the younger brother is still young, and it is not easy to raise it.
Although the elder brother worked in the Zhuangzi of the General's Mansion, he was only a low-class coolie, with little salary, and the only benefit was that he could eat enough.
So the whole family pointed to Zhiqi to marry her brother every month, she didn't dare to go wrong, otherwise it would delay her brother's lifelong event, and her father and mother would definitely not be able to spare her.
The incident two days ago was originally promised by the second young lady Yu Wanyao, if Yu Wanning could be asked to wear the clothes stained with medicine and eat the dim sum mixed with the drug, it would make Yu Wanning a big ugly.
Yu Wanyao rewarded Zhiqi with a tael of silver, but Yu Wanning couldn't do it, and she didn't get the reward, but Zhiqi ate the consequences by herself, and was thrown into cold water by Yu Wanyao and frozen.
Zhiqi also knew that Yu Wanning intended to punish her, so in the past two days, in addition to eating and sleeping, she didn't dare to take a break for a while.
I was really tired, so I put down the work in my hand, and just rubbed my sore and stiff neck, I saw Xue Jing come in.
"Here's for you."
Snow Goggles put down a piece of limestone cloth, then handed a piece of paper to Zhiqi.
"You make a man's dress according to the size above."
"Men's clothes?"
Zhiqi was a little stunned, the male masters in the mansion were only the generals, the eldest sons, and the fourth princes, but there were also people who specialized in serving needlework.
Even the clothes of the executive's family and the rest of the stewards below, there are also needle and wire people in the house who are in charge, and it is not her turn to do it.
So I couldn't help but blurt out: "Who is this for?" ”
"Miss's orders, you just do it, ask what you are doing?"
Xue Jing is a clever girl, and naturally she has already guessed that there is something wrong with the clothes that Zhiqi packed for Yu Wanning.
So she doesn't have a good face for Zhiqi, and she doesn't leave any affection.
"You are a girl, you just do things according to orders, where do you have the qualifications to ask questions?"
"Oh, I was dizzy and said the wrong thing."
Zhiqi knew that she couldn't afford to provoke the snow mirror that was very faceful in front of Yu Wanning, so she lowered her head wisely.
"If you want to go back to Miss, I will say that I will make it as soon as possible."
"Naturally, it should be done as soon as possible."
Xue Jing smiled a little happily: "Miss said, I will want it in two days." ”
"Two days?"
Zhiqi's pair of eyes almost fell out, and she was asked to make a ready-to-wear dress in two days, which clearly wanted her to stay awake.
The past two days have been hard enough, the needlework is very flowery and numb, and now she has to work overnight, and she is really hard in her heart.
But no matter how hard she is, she doesn't dare to complain now.
I had to reluctantly pull out a wry smile and nodded.
"Okay, I'll do my best to get out."
"It's good to know."
After Xue Jing finished speaking, he twisted the corners of his mouth, and turned to go out.
Only Zhiqi, who wanted to cry but didn't have time to cry, carefully looked at the size on the list, and then took the tool with a sad face, lowered his head and cut it.
Two days later, Yu Wanning's pill was finally baked, and there were about 100 pills. At the same time, several boxes of spices were made.
She sent someone to call Zhao Qilai, and then asked the little girls serving the tea to go out, and asked Xue Jing to go to Zhiqi to get the clothes she had made two days ago.
Only one Murray was left to serve.
Yu Wanning was wearing a water-red spring dress, combed in a girl's bun, and was sitting on a chair next to the screen window drinking tea.
is obviously a girl, but her gestures and demeanor are quite majestic, especially those eyes, which make people dare not look directly.
Zhao Qi saluted, so that he could stand with his head bowed three steps away, and occasionally raised his eyes slightly, but he only saw the pink embroidered shoes under Yu Wanning's water-red skirt.
"Here's some pills, and some spices, take a look."
Yu Wanning instructed Mo Li to take a box of medicine and spices and hand it over to Zhao Qi.
Although he bought those medicinal materials and raw materials for making incense, he still flashed a trace of surprise in his heart when he heard that Yu Wanning could actually dispense medicine and make incense, but he had always been restrained and self-controlled, and he did not show it on his face.
Mo Li handed two boxes to Zhao Qi, then withdrew his hand as if he had been stung by a bee, and retreated to Yu Wanning's side to stand.
Yu Wanning saw Mo Li like this, but he smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was silent.
Zhao Qi took out the pill and looked at it, then took out another incense bait, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and then asked, "Miss, what is the effect of this medicine and incense?" ”
"Speaking of which, this medicine and incense are both for men, but the buyers they face are different."
