"Miss, the slave doesn't mean that." I don't know if she was frightened by Xue Lan's tone, or if she was stupid by Xue Lan's bearing, Aunt Hong also stammered when she spoke, like a primary school student who was caught by a teacher.

"So can my aunt tell me what's going on?" The corners of Xue Lan's mouth bent, and her originally delicate face suddenly came alive, as if she came to life in an instant, but it was still the same face, but it always made people feel different.

"Miss, we don't have much to worry about." Aunt Hong was shocked by Xue Lan, lowered her head and spoke, "We didn't have much silver before we ran out, and we only went in and out along the way, and if we continue like this, we will be kicked out by the shopkeeper." ”

An Xuelan's father, An Qingyun, is a county magistrate in Hui County, a small place, and married off his daughter for money, An Xuelan was unwilling to marry a fool and begged Aunt Hong to leave the place where they grew up together, and decided to participate in the draft to change their fate.

It's better to be a concubine than to marry a fool! Maybe this is the most important decision in An Xuelan's life, but thinking of An Xuelan's final ending, Xue Lan doesn't know whether to say that this woman is lucky or that this woman is unlucky.

The so-called penny is difficult to defeat a hero, this sentence is not false at all, of course, Xue Lan also knows the stakes, and quickly thinks about ways to make money in her mind. An Xuelan is really poor, she was almost kicked out by the shopkeeper after the success of the draft, if it weren't for the help of a certain 'well-wisher', I am afraid that she would become the most shabby and ridiculed among the show girls.

But Xue Lan has backbone, not to mention that she is fully capable of making money, why should she eat the food that comes from her? has accepted the favor of others for nothing, but she will have to repay it a hundred times in the future, and Xue Lan has never made a loss-making transaction.

"Auntie, go and sell my embroidery! It's useless for me to keep it anyway. Xue Lan remembered An Xuelan's embroidery skills, and she was absolutely good at embroidery with one hand, at least it would not make their situation too bad.

"This ...... Not so good! These embroideries are your favorite things, Miss. Aunt Hong hesitated, after all, An Xuelan is a small jasper type girl, and those embroideries will never be passed on, so it's a pity that these things are sold like this.

"It's just something outside of my body, I can embroider more if I want, so why bother?" Xue Lan looked at her well-maintained hands, which were tender and fair, which could be regarded as top-grade, which showed that the owner was carefully maintained.

"Okay!" Xue Lan said so, and Aunt Hong naturally didn't dare to refute it, and even went against Xue Lan's decision. If Aunt Hong would have put forward her own opinions before, but now she doesn't have the guts, and when facing Xue Lan, Aunt Hong's heart only surrenders.

Don't look at An Xuelan, this girl is stupid, her skills are good, even if Xuelan has read thousands of sails and is experienced, she can't do this, she can be regarded as a top-notch existence. This craft alone is enough to support herself, but unfortunately women in this era only want to find a good husband and teach their children and rely on men to live.

An Xuelan's embroidery work is of good quality and high quality, and as soon as it is put into the market, it has received an excellent response, and many large families will come to Aunt Hong to trade, especially now that the draft is about to be held, the daughters of large families are trying their best to dress up and show off their flowers, and Xuelan took this opportunity to make a lot of money.

Seeing that her waist bag was getting more and more bulging, and there were fewer and fewer embroideries in front of her, Xue Lan was very satisfied with this result, and then simply left the inn to find a house to live in, and bought three or five maids by the way, and did nothing to do embroidery and maintain her skin every day, and was familiar with all of An Xuelan's own skills, but she was also happy.

When the waist bag is bulging, she naturally has confidence, and Xuelan boldly chose some beautiful jewelry and clothes, and began to prepare for making money and the draft. Six days before the start of the draft, a well-dressed man approached Aunt Hong and took out three hundred taels of silver in the hope of buying a beautiful dress with elaborate embroidery.

Aunt Hong wanted to refuse, after all, Xue Lan was also a show girl to be drafted, and if she prepared skirts for others, it would inevitably be a waste of energy to affect her own performance, but Xue Lan agreed after hearing it, and Aunt Hong had to agree.

"Aunt Hong, don't worry, I know it in my own heart." Xue Lan was holding a beautiful blue cloth embroidered with flowers in her hand, and she opened her mouth casually, she still knew in her own heart, and it would definitely not affect her performance, not to mention that she still had a plug-in like portable space.

In fact, Xue Lan finished the dress as early as one day and began to prepare her own things, so she was going to the draft to become the concubine of the Son of Heaven in the future, and she couldn't be as shabby as An Xuelan, and she couldn't make people laugh at it. only wore an ordinary dress and went to the draft with two silver hairpins on his head, isn't this sent to the door to make people laugh?

Five days later, the butler came again, and his eyes lit up when he saw the beautiful dress, and then he left three hundred taels of silver, and went home happily, and he was sure that his young lady would like the dress, and that when the time came, their young lady would be able to overwhelm the crowd and accompany the king smoothly.

In the next time, Xuelan was much quieter, preparing her own outfit every day and choosing the girl she liked, the people in the palace were treacherous, and it was hard for her to say whether the hearts of those palace maids were black or white, so it was better to cultivate her loyal henchmen at the beginning, so as not to trouble herself and find trouble for herself.

Two girls, Hexiang is shrewd and capable, sleek and relaxed, suitable for managing a group of minions under him; Gentle, patient, and thoughtful, it is suitable for managing the daily life of Xuelan. They have never experienced the influence of the harem, and they are still loyal to Xuelan. Of course, Xue Lan is not a person who will plant an invisible bomb for herself, she has already taken a reassuring pill for herself, and she is absolutely foolproof.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the draft, and the two girls of Hexiang went to Xuelan's room early in the morning to serve Xuelan to wash, Piaoxi dressed up for Xuelan, Hexiang tidied up Xuelan's room, and then went out to call a carriage.

The delicate face is not aggressive with a light makeup, the light softness makes people feel very comfortable, the long black and bright hair is simply pulled into a Ling Xuan bun, and there are three or two golden steps obliquely inserted on it, inlaid on the step shake, low-key luxury. The powder blue dress shows more and more fair skin, the lilac belt outlines the slender waist, and every move is the demeanor of everyone's ladies, I am afraid that no one would have thought that such a woman would be from a small family.

"Let's go." Draped in a light veil, Xue Lan's whole person exuded a faint aura, floating like a fairy.
