At this time, a voice as warm as water came from the gauze tent, and said slowly: "Thank you for your kindness." ”

Mrs. Zheng pressed her brows and said patiently: "The guests are here, and you are still hiding inside and not coming out?" ”

The voice in the gauze tent was as slow as cotton: "I'm afraid that there will be two people in the house at once, which will frighten Boss Yan." ”

"Okay, if you have any ideas, tell Boss Yan yourself." Mrs. Zheng turned around stiffly, stared at me and said, "Boss Yan, the little girl is weak and should not meet for a long time. ”

"Okay."

Mrs. Zheng walked out with a room of solemnity, and outside the tent, she also said in a cold voice: "The tea is cold, why don't you make it for the guests?" ”

Then there was a light sound of going downstairs, and I was relieved to hear the "whirring" of the circle outside, and this breath seemed to be relieved in my heart.

At this time, the gauze tent in the dormitory was gently opened, and a weak and boneless hand gently lifted the tent, and the daughter of the Zheng family, who was also the daughter of Zixu, walked out from behind the tent gently.

Her clothes are so beautiful, purple as a rainbow, a pale pink lotus flower from the shoulders to the sleeves, the long hair hanging down just falls on the shoulder and chest, her hair is so long, it has been growing to the waist, probably because she is not leaving the house, the skin is a little pale, and the light red lips are gentle, faint, like a crystal white mountain cherry blossom falling on the face.

Miss Zheng looked at me and smiled shyly, her fair face was faintly crimson: "Hello, Boss Yan." ”

This was the first time I had met the legendary Miss Zheng, and I thought she would be like Mrs. Zheng, with cold eyes and firm lips, but she was not, she seemed so soft and weak, as if a gentle gust of wind could blow her away, and a needle would frighten her.

Miss Zheng came to me lightly, pulled me and said, "Don't be restrained, sit down." ”

I sat down.

Miss Zheng sat next to me, and there was a faint smell of medicine from her, I seem to have heard someone say that the daughter of the Zheng family has a good life, but her health is not good.

She held the stack of papers in her hand tightly, looked a little nervous, and said, "I'm sorry, I deliberately asked Boss Yan to come over, I was going to tell you clearly, but my mother felt that it was inappropriate." She brushed the sideburns from her ears and whispered.

Miss Zheng was so polite, I felt a little embarrassed, and said, "Oh, it's okay, it should be." It's just that Mrs. Zheng is not satisfied with my embroidery, and I don't know what to do now. In fact, there are many large embroidery houses in Kyoto's Oshithiro, which specialize in taking over the business of large families like you, and there should be embroidery patterns that are more in line with your heart......"

Miss Zheng raised her head and smiled: "My mother has always been demanding of Gao Ge, and I hope Boss Yan will not be surprised." ”

I smiled and said, "No, no, it should be, this is Miss Zheng's lifelong event, of course, try to be perfect in everything." ”

Miss Zheng had sadness on her face, lowered her head and was silent for a moment, then smiled and flattened the stack of papers in her hand on the table, and said, "This is some left after my mother selected, I don't know if I can use it as an embroidery sample?" ”

I took the paper and looked at it, it was also a dragon and phoenix mandarin duck, but the painting skills were fine, the shape was long and round, and it was indeed much better than the embroidery I gave.

I flipped through them one by one, and although these paintings were very sacred*, some of them could be painted, but they might not be able to embroider the artistic conception, and asked: "There may be some places that need to be modified, such as the faint appearance of the clouds, it is easy to paint, but it is difficult to embroider." ”

I looked at a picture of a mandarin duck, felt a little inappropriate, and said tactfully: "This mandarin duck, facing the opposite, the mandarin ducks are facing and perching, how can there be a back to sleep, the painting is indeed very beautiful, but the sign, may not be very good?" ”

Miss Zheng did not answer, and I looked up at her strangely, only to see that her apricot eyes were drooping, her expression was dull, and she seemed to pay no attention to the embroidery.

"Miss Zheng? Miss Zheng? I called softly, but I couldn't bear it, afraid to wake up this light lotus flower from the shallow rest.

"Oh-" Miss Zheng came back to her senses and smiled lightly, there was also a small pear vortex on the corner of her mouth, I thought if she could smile more, it would be very beautiful.

Her spring-like eyes stared at me and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a little distracted, what did you say just now, Boss Yan?" What's wrong? ”

I had to repeat what I had just said.

Miss Zheng nodded, took the beautifully painted small picture, and tore it without thinking too much.

"Alas," I was busy trying to stop it, but it was too late, the small picture had been broken into pieces, quietly piled up on the table, I was a little distressed, "Although it is not a good omen for marriage, but the painting also took Miss Zheng a lot of time, I just want to say, when we paint, we can turn the mandarin duck's body in reverse, what a pity to tear it off like this." ”

Miss Zheng smiled lightly, threw the shredded paper into the dirty bucket and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just a painting, I have a lot of time." ”

I felt that Miss Zheng had a sorrow that could not be resolved, and there seemed to be sighs and loneliness hidden in her eyebrows and smile, which made me feel very depressed and distressed, I always thought that Miss Zheng would be like Mrs. Zheng, luxurious and arrogant, accustomed to being looked up to, and like to be feared.

How can a bride-to-be be have such a melancholy mood? I've seen brides who are either elated or shy and silent before, but I've never seen Miss Zheng like that.

I put away the paintings one by one and said, "Well, then I'll take these away first, and the embroidery samples will be according to the patterns on the drawing paper, and there may be slight changes, and I will only take them to Mrs. Madame to see after the changes." ”

Miss Zheng stood up, like a quiet lotus flower suddenly stretched out of its branches, full of beauty, she looked at me a little uneasily, coughed lightly, raised her voice and said outside: "Circle, the tea is cold, go to the teahouse to make a new cup of flower tea for Boss Yan." ”

I hurriedly said, "No need, things are almost over, let's not disturb Miss Zheng, you are resting." ”

Miss Zheng touched me lightly, retracted her hand embarrassedly, her face was all red, and she whispered: "It takes weeks to entertain guests, Yan Lao didn't drink a cup of tea, it's really slacking - circle, have you gone?" ”

"And he went, and he went." The veil moved, and then the sound of footsteps coming downstairs in circles rang out.

I think Miss Zheng is deliberately trying to break the circle, but when I met her for the first time, there was nothing to discuss in private, so I couldn't help but wonder: "Miss Zheng has anything else to tell me to do?" ”

Miss Zheng blushed, probably a little excited, coughed a few times, pursed her lips and nodded.

Is there really something going on?

She gently entered the dormitory, and after a while, she took out a small stack of papers, carefully placed them on the table like a baby, and said, "There are some small paintings here, I want to ask you, Boss Yan, to help me embroider them." ”

And also? So why don't you just bring it along?

I picked up the painting and looked at it, I felt that my eyes lit up, this page and page, are all butterflies of different shapes, lifelike, different shapes, coloring and drawing pens are also very careful and meticulous, from a distance, it is really like a gorgeous butterfly stopped on the white paper, I like butterflies the most, these butterflies are more beautiful than any butterfly I have ever seen - even real butterflies, I can't help but look a little stunned, asked her: "Are these all painted by you?" ”

Miss Zheng blushed and said, "Yes." There are many butterflies in the garden, so if you want to make embroidery, will it be a little clumsy to copy some when you have nothing to do? ”

I smiled and said, "No, this butterfly is better than any of my embroidery samples, and it must be beautiful with the bright color of the embroidery thread!" ”

Miss Zheng smiled, bent her eyes and raised her eyebrows, like a blooming water lily.

"However, the embroidery of weddings, butterflies are rarely used, and the colorful ones are usually very good-looking, but when used for weddings, will it be a little too fancy?" I'm still very dedicated to say.

Miss Zheng suddenly looked out the window and said softly: "It doesn't matter what she likes, I have already given you the golden lotus dragon and phoenix she wants, these butterflies are what I want, I want to ask Boss Yan to you, don't tell my mother, I will pay you another embroidered silver after the butterfly is embroidered." ”

I don't really understand Miss Zheng's intentions, why are they all things from the Zheng Mansion, but they have to be embroidered separately?

Miss Zheng smiled knowingly and explained, "The paper doesn't grow long, and the color will fade, so I hope that I can take it out and look at it from time to time." But my mother doesn't like me to spend energy on these meaningless things, so I can only ask Boss Yan in private. ”

"Oh, okay, no problem, I like butterflies the most, these are the most beautiful I have ever seen, more beautiful than real butterflies."

"Really?" Miss Zheng grinned.

"Really, believe it or not, there are butterflies on many of my things, but I'm afraid they will look too fancy and embroidered very hidden." As I spoke, I pulled the folded edges of the sleeves embroidered in the shape of butterflies to her.

Miss Zheng approached and looked down carefully, gently touched the unevenness of the embroidery thread, and said softly: "Really, if you don't look carefully, you really can't see it." ”

When she lowered her head and leaned over slightly, I saw a lanyard exposed from her snow-white neck, the daughter of a large family, usually with a priceless pendant on her chest.

I couldn't help but touch my neck, there was nothing, not even a stone, let alone jade, gold and silver.

I put the butterfly drawings that Miss Zheng gave me in my backpack, and Miss Zheng kept looking at me with a smile, and I could see that she was really happy at this moment.

Miss Zheng also showed me a lot of paintings that she usually painted, she is so amazing, I have always admired people who can write poetry and paint.

I looked out the window at the sky, it was already a little dark, and I was a little uneasy when I thought that I was going to pass through the terrifying Xihuayuan, so I said to Miss Zheng: "It's not too early, don't disturb Miss Zheng, you are resting." I'll have to go out and explain other things to Mama Bear later, so I'll go first. ”

Miss Zheng was a little disappointed and said, "I'm really sorry, I patronized you and delayed your business." ”

I smiled and said, "What's the matter, what's the business at this time, I'll just eat and eat, and I shouldn't be a money-making job." ”

At this time, I heard the sound of someone going upstairs, and after a while, I heard the circle outside: "Miss, Madam said that you should rest, let Boss Yan go." ”

Miss Zheng frowned lightly and smiled politely at me: "This girl can't teach her to speak." ”

I smiled and said, "It's okay, it's still a little girl." It's time for me to go, then, next time I'll come back to you when I'm done. ”

Miss Zheng nodded hopefully, and took a handkerchief to wrap a few small sweet fruits on the table, and said, "This snack is very sweet, Boss Yan will take a few to eat on the road." ”

I didn't shirk it, to be honest, I had already noticed the cute dim sum on the table, and I happily accepted it, waved my hand and said, "Then I'll go first, see you next time." ”

Miss Zheng stood softly in front of the pink gauze tent and smiled faintly at me.

Walking out of the Kissing Jade Pavilion, I couldn't help but look up, and saw that behind the window lattice, there was a lotus-like Miss Zheng, with a sad look on her face, and when she saw me looking up at her, she immediately burst into a smile and beckoned to me.

I waved at her, but I was not happy in my heart, this Miss Zheng was not as happy as I imagined.
