Chapter 64: Dark Moon Lady
"Really?" Xu Sanchun rejoiced. It is very convenient to teach calligraphy in embroidery. In this way, she will learn faster, and she will not reveal the secret of her original literacy, let alone reveal the skills of the dumb girl.
Seeing her so happy, Jia Peiling nodded and smiled: "Really, I can't lie to you?" When you enter the embroidery school, you will know, there is no inconvenience in not being literate. ”
However, there are few literate women in the people, so when they first enter the embroidery school, they have to teach the curriculum uniformly.
No matter how much it is, it's inconvenient for her to say.
Xu Sanchun said "um" several times in a row, with a smile in his eyebrows and eyes, "Thank you, Sister Peiling, for mentioning it." ”
The two talked again, and Jia Peiling left.
On the second day, Xu Sanchun came to the door of the embroidery school on time, "Xu Sanchun came to meet the embroidery girl, please pass through." ”
After a while, a pleasing-looking little maid came inside, looked at Xu Sanchun and smiled: "Dare to ask, but Sister Sanchun has arrived?" ”
Xu Sanchun answered, and she led her inside.
Embroidery is not conspicuous from the outside, and it is only after stepping into it that you find that it is extraordinary.
The square is open and the houses are elegant. Here, Xu Sanchun felt that his thoughts were much clearer for no reason. This feeling was somewhat similar to the feeling of her fingers touching the formation map, but it was not so strong.
The whole embroidery school covers an extremely wide area, and behind the shadow wall is not a garden, but a square paved with bluestone slabs. Directly facing the square, there is a main building, consisting of a temple and attached houses. There are several buildings on each side, and a row of houses in the back.
Flowers and trees dot the houses, and the trees are swaying. Further back, there is a garden, through which a canal led by the Houzhao River flows through it.
Xu Sanchun looked at all this and thought silently, this is where she will live for six years in the future.
The little maid glanced at her curiously, thinking in her heart, this sister is really beautiful, and she speaks gently and gently, she has never seen such a beautiful person!
Of course she has seen Tiangongniang, but Tiangongniang is a fairy figure who only comes once in six years, and she is not a worldly person in her heart.
"Sister Sanchun, you can call me Xiaoyu. I'm not yet sixteen years old, and I'm waiting by my mother's side. She looked at Xu Sanchun with admiration, so beautiful, I heard that her embroidery skills are very good, and she also passed the embroidery test, which is amazing!
Xu Sanchun laughed when she saw it, and said, "It turned out to be Sister Xiaoyu." "Cai Niang Wen Zhiyi is in charge of the entire embroidery school, Xiaoyu is the person who serves by her side, and she should not be taken lightly.
Besides, this little girl is really pleasing tight.
The two entered the main hall, and Xiaoyu said: "Miss Sanchun, every embroidery girl who enters the embroidery school for the first time must give the dark moon a stick of incense." ”
Usually, after the embroidery girl test, this batch of embroidery girls will be incensed together after entering the school. But since Xu Sanchun came ahead of schedule, the ceremony cannot be abolished.
Darkmoon Lady?
Xu Sanchun took a stick of incense from Xiaoyu's hand, respectfully bowed to the golden-bodied lady enshrined in the hall, and inserted the incense on the incense burner.
In the green smoke, the half-closed eyebrows of the Dark Moon Niangniang were extremely mysterious. There was a small smile on her lips, like pity, like indifference, like sarcasm and ridicule.
After looking at it twice, Xu Sanchun had a cold war, and his body was cold.
Xiaoyu said softly: "Everyone who sees Dark Moon Niangniang for the first time is like this. It turned out that he was not the only one, and Xu Sanchun was relieved.
Leaving the main hall, Xiaoyu led Xu Sanchun to wait in the side hall. Seeing Wen Zhiyi's figure appear by the door, she hurriedly quickened her steps forward to salute, "I've seen Cainiang, please forgive Sanchun for taking the liberty of bothering." These etiquettes were taught to her by the dumb lady.
"It's out of the way," Wen Zhiyi smiled, "Why did you think of coming to see me?" ”
"Don't hide it from the talented mother, Sanchun has something unclear in his heart, so he came to ask for advice."
"It's just right outside, let's talk as we walk." Wen Zhiyi nodded, and Xu Sanchun followed her and walked towards the back garden.
The flowers and trees here are extremely prosperous, far more beautiful than the natural scenery outside Nanfeng Town. The weather was getting hot, but it was still early in the morning, and the sun had not yet risen in the middle, so it was very pleasant to walk in the meantime.
A gazebo appeared in his sight, and Wen Zhiyi took Xu Sanchun over and sat down on the stone chair. Xu Sanchun didn't dare to sit down, and stood beside her in an orderly manner.
"You're welcome when the two of us are here." Wen Zhiyi motioned for her to sit down and said, "When Tiangong Niang left, she specially asked me to take care of you. ”
Yes?
Xu Sanchun grew his mouth in surprise, how could a fairy figure like Tiangong Niang pay attention to a little person like her.
Wen Zhiyi was provoked by her expression and laughed, "You are a girl, you are born so good-looking." Can you pay attention to your demeanor, it's always so exaggerated. ”
Xu Sanchun lowered his head embarrassedly and said, "Let Cai Niang see and laugh, Sanchun has not learned." "She was originally a modern woman, and when did she learn these manners.
"It doesn't matter, I will teach you when you come in and embroidery." Wen Zhiyi said a word, and then said: "Tiangongniang looks at you differently, you must not live up to her hard work, and study hard after you come in." ”
Xu Sanchun nodded again and again, and promised: "Please rest assured, I will definitely study seriously." "Even if she is not a talented mother, she has to study hard for herself.
"What I tell you today, you remember in your heart, don't say anything to anyone." That's why she came to the back garden to say this to Xu Sanchun.
There are not many people in embroidery, but people are inevitably jealous. If other embroiderers learn that Xu Sanchun is valued by Tiangongniang, I am afraid that Xu Sanchun's life in embroidery will not be peaceful.
Originally, Wen Zhiyi was still thinking about when to say this to her, but now that she came to visit in advance, she just said it.
Xu Sanchun responded cautiously, and she also knew how powerful this was. She didn't go to embroidery school, but she studied for more than ten years from elementary school to university, and she knew all too well what was going on in the class.
"Okay, what do you have to say?"
"Cai Niang, I want to ask, can I sell the purse handkerchiefs and silk fans I embroidered myself?"
In the Great Shang Dynasty, she had grown up at the age of sixteen, and since she was an adult, she wanted to support her family by her own ability, and she didn't want to use the dumb girl's private money. Otherwise, what is the difference between that and the gnawing old clan she once despised.
"There is no rule in embroidery that you are not allowed to sell your own embroidery." Wen Zhiyi said: "There is only one, a stitch and a thread in embroidery, and it can't flow out on its own." ”
That is to say, the embroidery made from the materials she bought with her own money can be sold by herself, and the embroidery will not interfere.
"Wow, that's great!" Xu Sanchun was so happy that he almost jumped up, thinking of what Wen Zhiyi had said before, he stood obediently with his hands down.
Wen Zhiyi was amused by her, "It's like a child." Xu Sanchun's character is really far from her appearance.
