[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site" ", or search in Baidu: Sanlian Literature Network] Cuiyun went down to the end of the dim sum.
Ruixue took off the head flower again and looked at it carefully. She really likes this head flower, the workmanship is so exquisite.
"Grandma, what is the tapestry?"
She had heard a lot of children from Rongyue's mouth, like silk, silk, and yarn, she had heard and seen them, but she didn't know what this brocade was.
The grandmother of the owner said with a smile: "This is not a brocade, it is called Kujin, which is specially dedicated to the palace." Seeing that Rui Xue was interested in this, the grandmother of the owner was also interested in explaining to her, and she said in detail, "The gold thread is hooked and the silver thread is decorated with patterns, so there is the golden brilliance you said." ”
The grandmother of the proprietor got up and walked to the inner room to get a long standing collar and came out: "Look at this." ”
Looking at the past from a distance, I only feel that the color of the clothes is particularly conspicuous, imposing and bright. Waiting for the owner's grandmother to show Rui Xue, Rui Xue only felt that the whole dress was unusually gorgeous, with a huge flower shape and dark color matching, I don't know what technique was used, and the dark ground was more colorful, making the color more solemn and elegant.
The pattern on the clothes is beautiful, and the color is strong, which immediately compares the plain silk clothes on the grandmother of the owner. There was a circle of golden light around the brocade dress, and the clothes immediately looked golden, magnificent, and dazzling, and this is the role of the gold thread!
Ruixue looked at this material for the first time in surprise, and was surprised.
"This green is so beautiful. How can there be such an emerald green color? ”
"It's twisted with peacock feathers."
Peacock feathers? What is a peacock, Rui Xue was attracted by the entwined lotus pattern on her clothes, and she didn't have time to ask what a peacock was.
Rui Xue, who took a closer look, immediately found a very strange place: "Grandma Dongjia, this is all used in bright colors, but why does it look thick but not heavy, bright but not vulgar?" ”
Rui Xue felt cheesy just thinking of royal blue with dark green, red with emerald green, but the colors here are all bright colors against bright colors, why is there no trace of cheesiness?
The grandmother of the owner put the clothes on the table and pointed to a pattern for Ruixue to see: "Look." This is woven in different shades and shades. From bright red, silver red to water red; Here is jade white and then blue. It will be better to go shallow and deep. ”
I see. Oh, my God! How many colored threads will this dress have?
"It's red; It's water red; It's pink; It's silver-red......"
Rui Xue focused on recognizing the red she knew, but she also recognized four or five kinds, although some looked similar, but when Rui Xue compared the two reds, she immediately found the difference.
The grandmother of the owner was next to her and pointed out the red that Rui Xue couldn't help but have: "This is vermilion; It's crimson, a little more moist than pink; It's garnet red......"
The owner's wife actually said more than a dozen shades of red, and in the end, Rui Xue couldn't figure out what it was, there were many colors that were so similar that she couldn't see what was different.
This proprietor's grandmother is really amazing, she actually knows so many kinds of red, it's really amazing.
Ruixue looked at the grandmother of the owner with adoration. She looked at it again and again, and still felt that this grandmother of the owner was very ordinary, and she didn't see anything more powerful than others.
For example, Liu Ping's wife, Qiu, looks like she feels different from a peasant woman; Mrs. Zhao's second wife...... It's so powerful, so powerful that I don't dare to speak in front of her, and I feel scared; Gong is a very ordinary person.
But why can't such a powerful proprietor's grandmother see it at all?
The grandmother of the owner saw that Ruixue had been looking at herself, her eyes were a little confused, and she was surprised: "What's wrong?" Is there really anything on my face? ”
"That's amazing!"
This heartfelt remark did not cause any change in the grandmother of the proprietor's house, she had heard too many people say this about her, and even if it was a little girl who said this, she did not feel any joy at this time.
Seeing that the owner's grandmother looked unfazed, Rui Xue admired her even more. The people she had seen in the past, when others said he was good, were either humble and shy or proud, and she had never seen such an indifferent person.
Is this the "heart with waves and the face as calm"?
"How can you embroider lotus flowers with blue-gray and purple-gray? The lotus is either pink or purple, grandma of the owner, there are still these two colors of lotus flowers in this world? ”
Rui Xue looked at it for a while, and the grandmother of the owner quickly moved to the clothes again. She looked very closely, and she found that the lotus eyes on her clothes were not at all different from what she saw, and she had doubts in her heart.
"Don't you think blue-gray and purple-gray look peaceful and solemn? More of a status show? ”
Yes! Blue-gray and purple-gray are much thicker than pink.
It's so exquisite!
Later, under the explanation of the owner's grandmother, Rui Xue knew that the original brocade weaving method was not one, but included several weaving methods such as silk, silk, and silk.
"It must take a long time to weave a piece of material like this!" Rui Xue thought that Gong had said that if the patterns on the front and back of a piece of material are different, it will be very valuable, although this brocade is not a different pattern on both sides, but there are so many different weaving methods, it is also worth as much and consumes effort.
"It must be expensive! Only the official's wife can wear it. "Such gorgeous clothes can only be worn by the wives of those big officials, and they will definitely look more luxurious when they are worn.
The grandmother of the owner sat down and smiled slightly: "There is no price." ”
Money can't buy it! This......
"Grandma of the owner, but will anyone buy it like this? Just like Dad sells meat swallows, if it is 20 yuan a bowl, no one will buy it even if it is delicious. We sell a bowl for five cents, even if it's a little expensive, but some people still buy it. If it sells it at the same price as tofu brain, more people will eat it. ”
Rui Xue couldn't figure it out, isn't the things in this world sold cheaper, the more people buy?
"Meat swallow, your father sells meat swallows."
Rui Xue didn't expect that the grandmother of the owner would actually know about the meat swallow, her father said that the meat swallow is a snack in Fuzhou, and the grandmother of the owner also said that she was from Yangzhou, how could she know?
"Grandma, do you know the meat swallow?"
The grandmother of the owner smiled slightly: "I have been to Fuzhou, and when your father comes back, I will ask him to make a bowl for me to eat." ”
"What kind of place is that in Fuzhou? Is Nanjing big? ”
"You ask so much at once, how can I tell you? Fuzhou is still in the south, and it is not as big as Nanjing, except for the capital that is larger than Nanjing, there is no place in the world that is bigger than Nanjing. ”
"The capital is bigger than Nanjing. Nanjing is so prosperous, what will happen to the capital? Has Grandma been to many places? Ruixue admired this grandmother more and more, she had been to so many places.
If it's not ...... this time It's possible that she'll live in Quanjiao for the rest of her life; If it weren't for Liu Ping's wife inviting them to go to Shenshan Temple to offer incense, it is estimated that she would not even go out of the door of the Zhao family now.
Now it seems that it is better to go out, she has seen a lot, and she understands a lot, and she no longer feels that it is enough to play with Zhao Xiyun every day and help Zhao Xihou write a few big characters.
If she could, she would like to go to many places and see more things like her grandmother.
"Of course, you have to go to a lot of places to do business. Every place is different, or the south of the Yangtze River is good, full of flowers, unlike the north, the weather is very cold......"
"Grandma, let's eat something first." Cuiyun came in with a bowl of noodles, "I saw that grandma ate it yesterday, so I asked the cook to go down again." ”
The grandmother of the owner took the chopsticks and took a bite, and she couldn't help but vomit, she wiped her mouth and asked Cuiyun to take the noodles away: "A strange smell." ”
"How come, grandma didn't eat very well yesterday?" Cuiyun sniffed in disbelief.
"Just you talk a lot! Today's soup smells like duck! ”
Cuiyun said good-naturedly: "I know." I'll go change it for you, what does grandma want to eat? "Pregnant people have a more sensitive sense of taste. Cuiyun thought of the past and smiled, "When grandma had a body for the first time, she even ate old rice and new rice. ”
The grandmother of the owner smiled slightly, but the smile was a bit far-fetched. Ruixue originally wanted to ask why, but seeing Cuiyun's annoyed look, she sensitively realized that Cuiyun had said before that the owner's grandmother had lost two tires.
At this time, she felt that the grandmother of the owner was very pitiful. is such a powerful and capable person, but he can't keep his children.
The grandmother of the owner was faster than Cuiyun, she cleared her voice, and said to Rui Xue: "Do you know how to make meat swallows?" I'm kind of craving that. ”
Cuiyun deliberately diverted the mistake she had just made, and also encouraged: "If you can do it, do it for our grandmother." What is Meat Bird's Nest? Tell me to taste it too. ”
She has been serving by the grandmother of the owner for a few years, and she has eaten a lot of delicacies, and she is a little curious when she hears the strange thing of meat swallow, and wants to see what it is, so that grandma will never forget it.
Ruixue was embarrassed and said, "I won't." ”
The grandmother of the owner was a little disappointed, and then said with relief: "Yes." How can you be a little girl who can beat meat? It's that I'm not thinking enough. ”
"I'll make you something else! How about black plum cakes? Rui Xue really wanted to make dim sum herself, last time Wang Jiuzhi made a black plum cake for her to eat, she always wanted to try it herself. Now that there is such a good opportunity, she doesn't want to let it go at all.
The grandmother of the owner covered her cheeks and gasped: "When you mention Wumei, my mouth is saliva, and my teeth are sore." ”
Rui Xue saw that the owner's grandmother was interested, and said angrily: "I heard someone say the day before yesterday that grandma likes to eat sour, and this dim sum also has a sour taste, so she must have an appetite for grandma." ”
"No need. The teeth that have been eating sore these days have fallen. I just want to eat something light. "Since she was diagnosed with a body, in order to make herself able to eat, the cook has always made something sour and brought it to her.
Rui Xue thought for a while and said, "Then boil some white porridge, and then fry some green vegetables and eat it?" When I had a pimple, my dad made this for me. ”
The owner's grandmother was not interested at all, she suddenly said to Ruixue: "Have you ever eaten duck in Nanjing?" ”
Rui Xue shook her head regretfully: "No." Dad also said that Nanjing's ducks are the best, and originally Gong's sister-in-law was going to take me to Gongyuan today to buy salted ducks...... I can only go back in a few days. ”
"Do you want to eat it?" The owner's grandmother seduces Ruixue.
"Of course I want to eat it. Dad said that the fragrance of laurel in August is a good time to eat salted duck. ”
When the grandmother of the owner heard Ruixue say this, she covered her mouth and laughed; "Exactly. There is also a nursery rhyme in Nanjing, called the Ancient Academy, Liuli Interception, Xuanse Duanzi, and Saltwater Duck. These are the four most famous things in Nanjing. ”
Cuiyun hurriedly said: "If grandma wants to eat, I will immediately send someone to buy it back." ”
The grandmother of the owner did not answer her, but leaned over and said to Rui Xue: "Do you want to go to the Gongyuan for a walk?" Shall I take you to the restaurant to eat freshly made salted duck? ”
Ruixue nodded repeatedly, but ......
"Grandma, you have a body." Cuiyun told Rui Xue's scruples. She has lost two children, but she can't afford to have another accident because of her greed.
"Prepare the car!"
