Chapter 13 Refusal

She glanced at the forehead wiping that Lin Yi gave to the old lady in the long room, and at that time she only felt that the stitches were delicate, but now she thinks about it...... Lin Fang unconsciously sweated.

If such a good thing falls on Lin Yi......

"What Mother Bai said," Lin Fang smiled, "Let the sixth sister also take a look, if the sixth sister has a better idea, we will discuss repairing it." ”

A better idea, Mother Bai said with a smile: "So the fourth lady already has eyebrows." ”

Lin Fang's face flushed, "I'm just thinking nonsense, if I can have a few days to repair it naturally, but now I have to be in a hurry, I need the sixth sister to help." ”

Mother Bai looked at the two old ladies, "Then the slave maid went to invite Miss Six." ”

The old lady of the long room smiled and said, "Go, go, let the six girls come over too." ”

……

Mother Bai led Lin Yi into the house, and as soon as Lin Yi sat down, Lin Fang smiled and embroidered the tassel.

Before Lin Fang could speak, the second old lady Dong had already said, "You made the double-sided embroidery you gave to your grandmother last time?" ”

Lin Yi quickly glanced at what Lin Fang was holding.

Tassel embroidered on both sides.

The old lady asked her this to see if she could embroider it on both sides.

The forehead she embroidered was in the hands of the old lady of the long room, and it was impossible for her to prevaricate in front of the old lady of the long room.

Lin Yi nodded slightly, "I made it myself." ”

"That's great," Lin Fang took Lin Yi's hand, "With my sixth sister helping me, this tassel can be mended." ”

Lin Yi looked at Lin Fang incomprehensibly.

Lin Fang said with a smile: "A cousin of the eldest sister's family asked us to help embroider the tassel," said for fear that Lin Yi would hesitate, "Our family has an identical tassel, we just need to embroider it." ”

Lin Fang said it so easily, as if she was the one who could embroider light and dark embroidery.

The old lady of the long room didn't speak, and looked at her and Linfang carefully. The old lady Dong looked happy to see it.

This tassel was brought by the cousin of the eldest brother-in-law, that is, the Lin family......

Helping the Lin family embroider tassels is equivalent to giving a good impression to the Lin family.

No wonder Lin Fang looked intimate when she saw her come in, and asked her sentence by sentence, so that she couldn't prevaricate. Especially the sentence "With six sisters to help me, this tassel can be mended." ”

If it doesn't make up for it, it's her fault, and Linfang can stand far away.

It is also a great contribution of Lin Fang, not only helping the Lin family, but also being able to make a good face in front of the elders.

Linfang dug a pit for her to jump, and she couldn't choose the right one.

Lin Yi smiled slightly and agreed, "There is a fourth sister here, I am just helping from the side." ”

Hearing this, the old lady of the long room, who had not spoken, also smiled, "That's good, you can be regarded as a favor to the big girl." ”

Lin Fang's heart finally let go, and her smile became brighter, "Then without further ado, my sixth sister and I will go embroidery." As he spoke, he raised his head to see Lin Yi's surprised expression.

"The fourth sister said to embroider now?"

The bad premonition flashed in Lin Fang's mind, "It's now, this is a birthday gift, and I want to use it tonight." ”

Lin Yi was immediately embarrassed, "A few hours is not good embroidery, light and dark embroidery is the most difficult, every stitch and thread must be carefully pondered, and the repair is to find the exact same thread in the broken place and fill it in according to the previous embroidery method." Although I can embroider light and dark, but I don't see it very much the same as this tassel, besides, do you have a thread of this color at home? ”

Lin Fang was stunned for a moment, no, but the original thread is generally used for repair, what Lin Yi meant by this, the previous thread could not be used.

Lin Yi smiled slightly, Lin Fang probably only cared about inviting credit, and she didn't think about many details, as long as she pulled out one thing casually, Lin Fang would be helpless.

The old lady of the long room heard these words, her eyes lit up slightly, "I can't make up for it if I say this." ”

Lin Fang also glanced at Lin Yi dejectedly, "You take a closer look." ”

Lin Fang's this is too obvious.

The second old lady Dong said: "Since it can't be repaired, forget it, we have done our best to tell Brother Qing earlier and let him choose a birthday gift again." ”

Brother Qing, sure enough, it's Lin Zhengqing.

Lin Fang reluctantly put the tassel back on the table, "I just think it's a pity that such a good piece of embroidery is broken." ”

As soon as the words fell, the curtain was lifted, and Lin Jiao, who was wearing a lotus-colored gown, beaded flowers, and two jewel-inlaid hairpins obliquely, walked in.

Lin Fang and Lin Yi saluted Lin Jiao.

Lin Jiao stepped forward and took Lin Yi's hand, "This is the sixth sister, it's so beautiful, I used to hear people say that the water and soil in the south raise people, but now I really believe it." As he spoke, he remembered that he didn't bring a gift, so he took off the jade bracelet on his wrist and put it on Lin Yi.

Lin Yi hurriedly excused herself.

Lin Jiao refused, "This should be the case between our sisters. ”

Everyone sat for a while, and the old lady in the long room smiled and said, "Let's have a feast, don't let the girls go hungry." ”

Lin Fang and Lin Yi went to help the two old ladies to go to the small hall.

After eating, the old lady of the long room went back to the room to rest first, and Mother Fang served the old lady of the long room to lie down.

After a while, Lin Jiao came to say goodbye, "Grandmother is not well, I should have stayed to take care of my grandmother." ”

The old lady of the long room said with a smile: "It's okay on weekdays, Mrs. Lin's birthday, you should go over earlier." Saying that, he instructed Fang's mother, "Since the tassel embroidery brought by the uncle of the Lin family can't be repaired, I will send my piece to Mrs. Lin as a congratulatory gift." ”

That tassel embroidery was the old lady's favorite, and Lin Jiao's face tightened, "The gift granddaughter for Old Madam Lin is ready." ”

The old lady of the long room shook her head and looked at Lin Jiao kindly, "I know your thoughts, but this one is not only for the Yuan family, but also for the Chen family." ”

"The recovery of the Yuan family depends on the Lin family, and if the Lin family doesn't let go, you can't do anything."

Thinking of this, Lin Jiao frowned, the reputation of the scholarly family is good, but it is not so easy to help at the critical moment.

The old lady of the long room smiled slightly, "Although it is said that the Lin family now has a promising junior, you must know that it is easy to enter the Shi and really gain a firm foothold, but it is difficult for the Lin family to suffer a lot when they were in Gaozu, and now there is no one to support them in the court, how much movement can be made by relying on a junior." Today's powerful Lin family may not be able to climb up, and our Chen family and Yuan family are at least superficially connected to the Lin family. ”

Lin Jiao seemed to understand these words at once, "Grandmother means that the Lin family wants to walk around with our family." ”

"It's not just about moving around, it's about wanting to go further...... Even the old lady in the second room saw it. ”

Marriage. Lin Jiao suddenly thought. It is not so easy for a scholarly family to maintain their reputation, especially if they can't climb high no matter how they marry, otherwise they will lose face.

Speaking of the old lady in the second room, Dong, Lin Jiao frowned, "The old lady in the second room is well-informed. ”

The old lady of the long room smiled, "How can she not know that we live under their noses all day long, in case I die that day, I'm afraid that by the time you know, this family will already fall into the hands of the second room." ”

When it came to life and death, Lin Jiao hurriedly comforted the old lady in the long house, "Grandmother is in good health, they don't dare to mess around." ”

Not necessarily, and the current situation may not last forever.

"Did grandmother ever think about passing the third uncle to the long house......

The old lady in the long room thought of the situation when Lin Yi was talking about the tassel embroidery in the room just now. The second brother and sister, who were bound to win, suddenly showed disappointed eyes.

The second brother and sister have been in the second room for so many years, and finally there is someone who can not be fiddled with by her.

It's just that it's not so easy to choose a stepson, the old lady of the long room glanced at Lin Jiao, "Don't forget, your third uncle may not be able to protect himself now." ”

As soon as the old lady in the long room finished speaking, she heard someone coughing outside the window, "Linglong girl, why are you here." ”
