There was disappointment on the old man's face: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just free today, it's okay to wait for a while." ”

An Sheng moved the pestle to the old man: "Then you sit down first, and I'll pour you a cup of tea." ”

The old man was real, and sat down directly with the hem of his clothes.

An Sheng put Leng Nanxian's clothes on the stone table on the side, turned around and went to the kitchen, brewed a cup of chrysanthemum tea, and handed it to the old man: "It's autumn dryness, the old man is in a hurry, so let's drink a cup of chrysanthemums, it's quenching your thirst." ”

The old man raised his hand and took it: "There is Miss Lao." ”

"You're welcome, uncle." An Sheng sat down on the side, picked up Leng Nanxian's clothes, and continued to bury his head in needlework.

The old man glanced at her: "The clothes sewn in your hand are an inch of brocade and an inch of gold Liuyun brocade, which is worth a lot of money. ”

An Sheng raised his eyes and smiled slightly: "Look at the old man's bearing, he is by no means an ordinary reckless man in the countryside, and the jade pendant he brings is the best in the jade, which shows that the family is rich and has ten thousand guan, why don't you wear silk and satin and take a luxury car?" ”

The old man twisted his beard and laughed: "There is poetry and books in the belly, why do you need those mundane things to embellish?" What's more, the thousands of seats in the vast building are only three feet on the couch, and the fertile land is also three meals a day, so it is good to be comfortable and comfortable, why should you be obsessed with the external form? ”

An Sheng was sitting facing the sun, smiling, his eyes were shining: "My master wears clothes of flowing cloud brocade, not for nobility, just to like it." There is no fault in enjoyment, and it is a sin to waste extravagance. This garment can still be worn after it has been repaired, and it will not reduce my master's bearing. ”

"What a mouth, little girl!" The old man couldn't help but tease: "Your master is picky, but I have never seen him wear flawed clothes." He didn't know how much silver taels he had to squander in a day, so how could he care about a piece of clothing? ”

An Sheng stopped the needle and thread in his hand, and said: "Master used to help the world and give medicine, which was a good deed, in exchange for the well-being of others and the joy of his family.

It's just that this money is flowing out, but there is no income. It's not okay to sit like this all the time, even if there are mountains of gold and silver, there will always be a day when they are hollowed out. So you still have to be thrifty in your life. The clothes are still brand new, and if you only wear them once, wouldn't it be a pity to lose them? ”

The old man couldn't help but be stunned, and then he was amused with a "haha" laugh: "I didn't expect the girl to be a good hand at running a thrifty house." The old man's sleeve also has an open thread, can you bother the girl to sew it skillfully? ”

An Shengshicai is just hard-mouthed and high-sounding, but in fact, the old man's words made her a little apprehensive. What he said was not wrong, since Leng Nanxian can afford to wear Liuyun brocade, then it should not be rare to find a sewn robe.

It's a pity that he is the initiator of this dress, so he can't let him disappear mysteriously, right?

She glanced at the masterpiece in her hand in discouragement, it was not so ugly, it was quite flat. After all, I have been nurtured by An Ran, and I still know some needlework, but I can't compare to those embroiderers who specialize in needlework, and they can sew without traces.

An Sheng's eyes flashed, and his face was suspicious: "Are you sure?" As far as my three-legged cat craftsmanship is concerned, aren't you afraid of losing face? ”

The old man smiled, raised his hand directly at her, and really made a few stitches in the cuffs.

An Sheng was thick-skinned, untwisted, took another blue thread of the same color, neatly threaded the needle, and approached the old man a little closer: "Wearing sewing, poor for ten thousand years, then you must not speak." ”

The old man still smiled warmly: "It's okay, it's okay, gold and silver are just dung, and wealth is just floating clouds." ”

An Sheng pursed his lips: "Your detached and indifferent mind is very similar to my master. ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again: "It's like him and me." ”

An Sheng raised the needle: "Don't move, be careful to prick you." ”

The old man sat obediently and did not move: "Who are you in this Beijing?" Look at your knowledge, your father should not be a reckless man in the countryside. ”

An Sheng was engrossed in sewing for him, and said casually: "My father's surname is Xia." The name of the household is just a little-known sesame official. ”

"Surname Xia?" The old man thought for a moment: "Who are you Xia Yuncang?" ”

An Sheng didn't expect the old man to say his uncle's name in a word, and he seemed to be quite familiar with the court, so he couldn't help but look up at him: "It's uncle." ”

"That's it, your father seems to have been in the household department for a long time."

An Sheng nodded: "There should be a few chairs that sit through." ”

The old man twisted his beard and smiled: "Your father is still conscientious in his work, but he is remarkable, but he does not have such a clever mouth as you." ”

An Sheng glanced at him resentfully: "I'm thick-skinned, so I think the old man is praising me." ”

The two were chatting speculatively, and Sister-in-law Feng came out of the backyard after washing her clothes and dried her back: "Ansheng, who are you talking to?" Childe is back? ”

An Sheng didn't raise his head: "No, it's an old man who came to seek medical treatment." ”

"Oh." Sister-in-law Feng agreed casually, turned her head and looked, and the clothes in her hand fell to the ground: "Old, old ......"

The old man shook his head at Sister-in-law Feng silently, Sister-in-law Feng pursed her lips and smiled knowingly, picked up the dirty clothes on the ground, and went back.

An Sheng lowered his head and bit off the thread, looking left and right: "It should barely be able to pass." ”

The old man glanced at Leng Nanxian's robe on the side, and laughed and teased: "Compared to that, it is indeed much better." ”

An Sheng twisted his face, and smiled embarrassedly: "Fortunately, I only practice medicine with a needle in my hand, and Xiuniang is just doing my best." I'm embroidering a fleshy caterpillar in this position, so I can cover it up. ”

The old man stood up with a smile, dusted off the folds pressed out of sitting for a long time on his body, and stretched his cuffs: "Today is worth the trip, so I saved two pennies and needlework." We'll see you later. ”

An Sheng also immediately got up: "Aren't you waiting for my master to come back?" ”

The old man shook his head, with a little bitterness in his smile: "Don't wait, just know that he is safe." ”

"Are you my master's acquaintance?" An Sheng asked suspiciously, "What do you call it?" ”

The old man smiled gently: "As soon as you say it, he will know that I have been here." ”

An Sheng responded, sent the old man to the carriage outside the house, and only then came back to continue to complete the grand plan in his hand.

When Leng Nanxian came back, it was almost noon, and An Sheng and Sister-in-law Feng were preparing lunch in the kitchen.

Qianzhou smelled the aroma and came in, took a long breath, and closed his eyes: "Today's lunch, there are fried bacon with tempeh, crab roe lion's head, steamed cabbage with garlic vermicelli, and ......."

Sister-in-law Feng glanced at him funny: "It's almost a dog's nose, why didn't the Hou Mansion keep food?" ”

Qianzhou shook his head: "The old lady is too enthusiastic, she wants to keep the food, and she scared the son back." ”

An Sheng leaned over and stabbed him with his elbow: "How is Master feeling today?" I'm not angry when I'm late, am I? ”

Qianzhou glanced left and right, picked up a piece of fat and thin bacon from the plate and threw it into his mouth: "I'll tell you this, when Gongzi came back all the way, his face didn't seem to look good." ”

An Sheng gasped: "Will you be angry with me for a while?" ”

Qianzhou shook his head: "I don't know if I will be angry with you, I only know that if the weather is good tomorrow, maybe Childe will let me continue to dry books." ”

"Huh?" An Sheng had a sad face: "What about the master?" ”

"I went back to my room to change my clothes. He said that the fat powder in Miss Susu's room in the Hou Mansion smelled too bad, too dirty, and contaminated his body. ”

As soon as he mentioned his clothes, An Sheng suddenly felt a little weak, and shrunk his head without squeaking.

Sister-in-law Feng quietly beckoned to Qianzhou, avoided An Sheng, and whispered a word.

Qianzhou turned his face and glanced at An Sheng: "Really? ”

Sister-in-law Feng nodded.

Qianzhou's face was a little strange, and he tiptoed out of the kitchen.

An Sheng told Sister-in-law Feng seriously: "Sister-in-law Feng, don't tell Master when you eat for a while, I will sew his clothes, otherwise I will die even more ugly." ”

I thought about it for a while, but after all, I didn't feel at ease, and wiped my hands clean: "I think it's better for me to take my clothes over and destroy the corpse, and it's not safe enough to hide them." ”

Before Sister-in-law Feng could speak, An Sheng had already slipped out of the kitchen and went straight to the backyard.

She had a really good idea. Because she was naughty when she was a child and tore her clothes, after her sister sewed it safely, she would carefully embroider a little pattern on it, which looked almost seamless.

Therefore, she also wanted to embroider a vivid insect on Leng Nanxian's clothes, but unfortunately, the sky did not follow people's wishes, and the effect was not ideal. The insect is indeed a worm, and it looks extremely cute, but the whole hem is wrinkled and not flat at all, which makes the worm particularly conspicuous, how can it be worthy of the master's bearing?

Master was not in a good mood originally, if he saw that he had ruined his clothes, then today, there would definitely be good fruit to eat.

Before he stepped into the backyard, he heard Leng Nanxian snort coldly: "Xia Ansheng!" ”

An Sheng obediently paused, his face full of smiles, and turned his face towards Leng Nanxian.

"Hehe, Master, I'm ......"

Before the latter words were finished, An Sheng was stunned, because Leng Nanxian's hand happened to be holding her "failure" today.

Leng Nanxian raised the clothes in his hand at her: "What's going on?" ”

An Sheng laughed dryly: "That's it, I just want to surprise the master, who would have thought that it would be self-defeating." ”

"Is this a surprise?"

Leng Nanxian leaned the caterpillar on the placket towards An Sheng.

Sister-in-law Feng happened to come out with the food, turned her face to look at the insect, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh "poof", giving An Sheng a look of self-begging.

That caterpillar is really good-looking, An Sheng gave it a pair of round, big and watery eyes, and embroidered two exaggerated tentacles on its head, the whole look, to be honest, is quite like Xia Ansheng who is now wagging his tail at Leng Nanxian to curry favor.

An Sheng scratched his head: "Okay, it was I who accidentally ripped off Master's clothes, and I wanted to make up for it, but I couldn't do it." Besides, people say I'm pretty good at my craft. ”

"Someone else?" Leng Nanxian sighed: "You shouldn't show your craft to others, right?" ”

An Sheng nodded: "Not only did I see it, but I also helped him sew up his sleeves." ”
