Tiantai Township is some distance from the town, but fortunately, because of the salt farm, a big road was built to transport salt, and it was very smooth to walk, and it was only more than an hour later to Nanfeng Town.

"Mother, let's go to Fufeng when we come out of the Baojia family, okay?" Xu Lan coquettishly towards Wang's family.

Wang was about to agree, "Let's get down to business first." Xu Jinshui reprimanded: "The birthday banquet is set at noon, and we will go to visit the embroidery school after we leave." It's a rare trip, just want to play! ”

Seeing her being trained, Xu Tianyou covered his mouth and smiled secretly, and Xu Lanbian wrung his fingers. Wang felt sorry for his baby daughter, and hurriedly whispered to comfort her: "It's still early to learn from embroidery, then we'll go again." ”

Xu Lan became happy at this time, and Xu Guangzong on the side asked curiously: "Dad, what is embroidery?" ”

"Embroidery, that's a good place, it's a place opened by the Brocade Mansion to train embroidery girls." Xu Jinshui looked yearning and said, "If your sister can enter the embroidery school, she will give us the glory of the Xu family!" ”

"Glory to the ancestors? It's so amazing! "Xu Guangzong is still young and doesn't understand the status of the Brocade Mansion.

"Nonsense!" Xu Jinshui's tone was very stern, and Wang Shi was so panicked that he covered his youngest son's mouth, "Bah, the yellow mouth is a child, and the dark moon is on top, no wonder." ”

Xu Jinshui glared at Wang, "How did you teach your son?" It's all spoiled by you, can you say it casually? ”

Even Xu Tianyou, who has always been a bit of a fool, looked around nervously, then shrank his head back and whispered: "Dad, mother, it's okay, no one outside pays attention to us." ”

Xu Lan was already so frightened that she couldn't speak. Xu Guangzong said so casually, if he was labeled as slandering the Brocade Mansion, it would be a big deal.

It doesn't matter if he is looking for death alone, she is young and has not even married, but she doesn't want to bury him!

The reaction of the family scared Xu Guangzong enough, Wang looked at it and felt distressed, hugged his son in his arms, and said softly: "In the future, this kind of thing can't be talked about." The girl in the embroidery school, that is an official who is bigger than the armor. ”

Embroidery schools are all over the big business, and the embroidery girls at all levels who teach in it are respectfully called girls. Like the civil and military officials, the food court Lu rice is under the direct jurisdiction of the brocade mansion.

Ordinary people don't understand, but the foundation of the entire Great Shang Dynasty is built on the formation, and the Brocade Mansion is naturally transcendent. The people in the embroidery school were directly appointed, transferred, promoted, and dismissed by the brocade government, and the money spent had nothing to do with the local government.

Even if the embroidery scholars rely on this privilege to do something evil that angers the people and the people, the government has no right to deal with it. It can only be reported level by level, and it will be disposed of after investigation and verification by the Brocade Mansion.

Bigger than armor? In Xu Guangzong's heart, Bao Jia is already the No. 1 official in Tianzi. Hearing Wang say this, I knew that it was amazing. He glanced at Xu Lan and shouted, "Sister, you are going to enter the embroidery school, but don't forget your brother." ”

Xu Lan agreed, but her heart was a little empty. Tiantai Township has not had an embroidery girl for many years, and everyone said that her embroidery interstitial screen was good at workmanship, not only Xu Jinshui and his wife, but even the Xu family put hope on her.

Otherwise, how can she be given this opportunity to show her face at the birthday banquet?

But that interstitial screen was embroidered by Xu Sanchun, she had already ridden to the back of a tiger and couldn't get up and down, and she couldn't even think about the consequences of her confession.

Fortunately, I still have two years to turn sixteen, and this round of embroidery girls can't take their turn. After this time, it will be six years later, as long as I marry someone to participate in the embroidery test, I will not be afraid, and I will not show my stuffing.

She followed her father and mother to think about her thoughts, and arrived at the door of Lord Baojia.

This mansion is more magnificent than the Limasa family in Tiantai Township, I don't know how much. The blue-gray courtyard wall stands tall, two large red lanterns hang at the door, and the servants who welcome the guests enter and exit in new clothes. The gongs and drums inside were noisy, presumably the opera troupe was invited to sing.

Wang handed over the invitation with a smile on his face, and after inspecting it, he let the three of them in and pointed out a place for them.

They were sitting in the outermost courtyard, and Xu Lan saw many bright guests walking inside. Compared with them, his elaborate dress is simply extremely simple.

She quietly pulled down her sleeves to hide the silver bracelet she was wearing on her wrist. Her precious silver bracelet looks really cold and tight right now. Those guests had jade pendants around their waists, and the hairpins in their hair were all gold hairpins, and none of them wore silver ornaments.

The three of them sat and didn't dare to move, and finally saw Mrs. Lizheng coming, Wang Shi hurriedly got up and said, "Thinking of you, you are here." ”

Mrs. Li Zheng glanced at Xu Lan and said to Wang: "It's a big girl, you don't clean up for her, look at what kind of jewelry she is wearing." ”

Xu Lan's face turned red, and she was so ashamed that she didn't dare to raise her head.

Wang's face was also a little unbearable. In her opinion, it was already very expensive for a girl to have a silver bracelet, how did she know that there was such a battle here.

Mrs. Rizheng shook her head and plucked a gilded comb from her head. tied Xu Lan's hair and inserted it in the center. After looking left and right for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, come with me." ”

Xu Jinshui was about to follow, but Mrs. Li Zheng stopped: "This is not comparable to the township, and men can't enter the back house." We went to visit the old lady, and Steward Xu sat here for a while. ”

If it weren't for Xu Lan's good embroidery work worth mentioning, where would she spend so much effort to take care of the Xu family. It's just the same clan, Li Zhengjia and Xu Jinshui have already come out of the five suits.

Nanfeng Town is in charge of several townships, and Tiantai Township is able to speak in front of Baojia because of the salt farm.

Mrs. Lizheng's surname is Peng, and she is a capable person, and she often walks around in front of Mrs. Baojia Wang through this relationship. During the New Year's holidays, there will be no lack of filial piety, so that the relationship between the two families is good.

As Peng walked, he instructed the two: "When I see the old lady later, just say hello." At this time, it was still early, and when the birthday banquet was about to be held, the birthday gift was offered, and the birthday greetings were spoken. ”

It means that this is just for them to show their faces and become familiar. The birthday gift is a serious matter, whether Xu Lan can be brilliant or not depends on this time.

Xu Lan was so nervous that she pulled the corners of her clothes, and beads of sweat oozed from the tip of her nose. Peng's heart looked down on her, and he said in his heart that this was a person who couldn't be on the stage, but he comforted him: "Don't be afraid, the old lady and Mrs. Wang are both good people, and they like a smart little girl like you the most." ”

As they walked into the back house, it was still bustling outside, with guests constantly coming. Xu Sanchun looked at the alley from a distance, but did not get close.

Xu Sanchun saw very clearly that everyone who went in had to check the invitation at the door before they were released. Because of the large number of people today, there are three or four people standing at the door to check the post, and at least two.

She bit her lip, thinking of a way to blend in.
