Eleven Niang hesitated for a moment: "No! ”

Shi Niang lowered her head. Didn't speak.

Eleven Niang looked at Wang Chengzu, who was pulling at the corners of her clothes and looked nervous, and muttered: "Or, you and the child will go back first!" I'll let you know what's going on. ”

Shi Niang didn't make a sound, and took Wang Chengzu's hand and walked out.

Those who saw her avoided her from afar.

Eleven Niang sighed and entered the inner room.

In the middle of the night, the eldest lady died.

The next day, the Ministry of Rites had an official document coming down, Wang Chengzu Chengmao Duke of the Kingdom.

The funeral was lively. Shilin students came to Lord Luo and Luo Zhenxing, the nobles and generals of the army came to Xu Lingyi, the people of the Luo family, the people of the Xu family, and even Yu Yiqing and Qian Ming were all busy with the funeral, and only the people of the Jiang family participated in Wang Chengzu's inheritance ceremony.

The funeral of the eldest lady caused a sensation in half of Yanjing City, and a few months later, there were still people in Yanjing who talked about the funeral.

The old man suddenly looked like he was ten years old. After the first seven days of the eldest wife, the Luo family began to pack up their things and prepare to return to Yuhang.

During this period, Luo Zhenxing came to visit. He asked Shi Niang: "Am I not taking enough care of her?" His eyes were full of uncertainty and uncertainty.

Eleven Niang had no way to answer.

At the beginning of September, when the osmanthus flowers are blooming, they are fragrant and a little pungent. The sky is clear and the weather is refreshing. Luo Zhenxing's footsteps were a little faltering.

Eleven Niang had already taken the hairpin and changed into plain clothes.

She quietly looked at Luo Zhenxing's distant figure and took a deep breath of slightly cool air. Then he turned around and went back to the house.

Xu Lingyi sat on the kang reading a book, saw her come in, put down the book in her hand: "Zhenxing is gone?" ”

Eleven Niang nodded and sat opposite him: "I said that I would entrust the house in Beijing to the third brother to take care of." Let me rest assured that he will take good care of the fifth aunt and the seventh brother. ”

Xu Lingyi nodded: "Zhenxing is a trustworthy gentleman, and he will definitely do what he says." ”

When something happened to the eldest lady, Luo Zhensheng would only stand aside in a daze. If Luo Zhenxing is still the same as the eldest wife, he only knows how to suppress the concubine, and when he comes to Brother Xu's generation in the future, I am afraid that there will be no one standing aside in a daze.

Eleven Niang didn't want to talk to Xu Lingyi about these unhappy things.

With the death of the eldest wife, there are some grievances, let go of what you can put down!

"It's just that Master Hou finally spent his birthday at home but couldn't handle it, and the concubine was a little uneasy." She changed the subject.

The third day of September is Xu Lingyi's birthday, and in recent years, he has either been in the army or absent from Yanjing on official business, and his family has not celebrated his birthday for many years.

"There is a high hall at home, what is the birthday?" Xu Lingyi said disapprenousively, "What's more, you got up early in the morning and ordered longevity noodles for me to eat." ”

Shi Niang thought that he had eaten three bowls of longevity noodles in a row, and pursed her lips and laughed: "If Master Hou likes it, the concubine body will give Master Hou longevity noodles every year." ”

Xu Lingyi smiled and didn't make a sound.

Since then, Shi Niang has refused the silk and bamboo banquet, and has devoted herself to presiding over the middle feed at home, asking Master Jian for advice on female red, and occasionally going to see Mrs. Gan.

When the Luo family left Beijing, she was sent outside the Xuanwu Gate.

Looking at the carriage of the Luo family, Shi Niang thought that the little sadness would pass at once, but who knew that the tears were falling on their own, and they couldn't stop it.

I don't know when I'll be able to meet Aunt Five. When I saw the baby in swaddling clothes, when the time came, I was afraid that it would have already been a different thing, and it would be another scene.

It was the first time Xu Lingyi saw her cry like this.

Don't turn your face, although tears are raining down, but you can't hold back.

He sighed softly, took Eleven Niang in his arms, and gently stroked her back, like comforting a wounded little animal, with gentle movements and a little love.

The warm embrace, the monotonous sound of the wheel, Eleven Niang cried and fell asleep deeply.

When I returned home, it was already the beginning of the unitary period.

Zhu Anping and Qi Niang came to say goodbye: "The autumn harvest is coming soon, I have to go back and see!" ”

"Then you ......" Eleven Niang looked at Qi Niang.

Qi Niang glanced at Zhu Anping, and lowered her head with a slightly red face.

Zhu Anping looked at it and said with a smile: "I asked her to stay in Yanjing, and she wants to go back to Gaoqing with me." Anyway, I prescribed a lot of medicine, so let's go back! We'll come back in a few days. Then he glanced at Qi Niang, "She is a lot more cheerful in Yanjing." ”

Qi Niang pouted when she heard this, and asked if the fifth lady was not at home: "...... I'm going to talk to her! ”

"At home!" Eleven Niang and Qi Niang went to the Fifth Lady. Leave Zhu Anping and Xu Lingyi to speak.

When the fifth lady heard that Qi Niang was leaving, she took her hand: "When will you come again?" When I went back to my parents' house two days ago, I specially greeted my father and asked him to lend me the courtyard on the other side of the Chashihai. I want to go there with you in a few days! Then he asked her anxiously, "When will you be back?" Do you want to go back to Yanjing? ”

Before they left, they were anxious for the next meeting. Such a fifth lady made Eleven Niang a little surprised.

"Zhu Anping said that if I haven't moved, I'll come to Yanjing after spring sowing." Qi Niang said, suddenly excited, "Why don't you go to our Gaoqing to play?" Our Gaoqing is also very fun. There are Dingzu Mountain, Niu Mountain, and there are many rivers. Heck, these two days are the time to pick grapes and apples, so you might as well go to Gaoqing with us for a few days. ”

The fifth lady listened fascinated, but soon her eyes darkened slightly: "I'm leaving, what should Sister Xin do?" ”

It's because the courtyard is deep and you can't go far at will, right?

Qi Niang didn't know.

She knew she had made a vague suggestion, and she smiled wryly.

The fifth lady asked about Qi Niang's itinerary: "When will you leave?" ”

"I'll leave the day after tomorrow." Qi Niang said with a smile, "The house is entrusted to the third brother to help take care of it." Later, Yanjing also had a place to stay. ”

The fifth lady nodded, everyone chatted a few words, and went to Mrs. Tai's place.

Mrs. Tai heard that Qi Niang was leaving, so she left her to eat, Xu Lingyi entertained Zhu Anping in the outer courtyard, and when she left, she rewarded a lot of food and small items from the palace for Qi Niang to take back: "Take it back and send it to relatives and friends." ”

Qi Niang thanked her, and the fifth lady and eleven niang sent her to the weeping flower gate.

Mrs. Tai instructed the fifth lady: "When the time comes, you have to go and send one." Sister Xin not only didn't have asthma these days, but she didn't even cough a single cough. ”

The fifth lady smiled: "I'm afraid that you won't allow it?" He smiled again, "If she is two days late, I won't be able to deliver it even if I want to." ”

The eldest son of the emperor got married two days later, and on the third day after the marriage, the hundred officials congratulated him, and ordered the wife to go to the queen mother and queen to congratulate and give a banquet.

“…… Now that the weather is getting cooler, you'll have to put on a big coat of clothes. ”

"That's all easy to say." Mrs. Tai looked at Shi Niang, "I have to prepare some food for everyone to eat in the car." ”

Eleven Niang responded and prepared food a day in advance. I have filial piety, and I can't enter the palace. After sending off Mrs. Tai and the others, she went to Master Jian.

Master Jian is embroidering the door curtain with glasses. Seeing her come in, he smiled and took off the glasses clipped to the bridge of his nose: "This thing you gave is good, and it is delicate." ”

Shi Niang smiled and took her glasses to look at: "I'll draw a picture, and when the time comes, I will ask the master of Duobao Pavilion to help me do it, and see if I can hang it on my ears." It's too hard to clamp on the bridge of your nose. ”

"You've always had a lot of ideas." Master Jian said, Qiu Ju came up with chrysanthemum tea, "Madam, clear the fire." ”

Eleven Niang saw that the chrysanthemum petals were as clean as jade, and the stamens were as yellow as gold, and said with a smile: "It was given by the second lady?" ”

The second lady heard that Master Jian was coming, and she came to visit. Master Jian gave her a pair of double-sided embroidered table screens with "clouds and mountains and mist", she liked it very much, and often came to Master Jian to sit here.

Qiu Ju smiled and nodded: "It is said that it is Hang Baiju from Tongxiang." ”

Eleven Niang sat down to drink tea with Master Jian.

"How did you come up with the idea of embroidering door curtains?" She looked at the big red brocade silk that was put aside, as if it was a dowry for someone, "Your eyes are not good, if you can't get rid of it, just tell me." I'm here to stop it. ”

Eleven Niang is afraid that someone will treat Master Jian as an embroiderer.

"It's not a matter of trust." Master Jian smiled, "I embroidered it myself." ”

Eleven Niang was slightly stunned.

"I see that the door curtains embroidered by Binju are selling well, but it takes too much time." Master Jian said slowly. "I thought if I could change the technique and see if I could shorten the time. Now it seems that the effect is not bad. Master Jian said, and showed the door curtain to Eleven Niang, "Look at this magpie climbing the branch, this place, it has always been with a stacked needle, I used a cross needle, the speed is much faster, and the effect is lighter than the ordinary stacked needle embroidery." She pulled out another one and pointed it out to Eleven Niang, "Look at this one again." It turned out that I used a cross needle, I left it blank and only hooked the edge, is it beautiful to look at.

But the more she listened, the more she felt that something was wrong.

Embroidery is a science. Master Jian's specialty is double-sided embroidery and tie-in. It stands to reason that when you reach a realm like Master Jian, you should think about how to break through in double-sided embroidery and tie the knots, and pursue the merits of those who have never been before or after you. It turned out that because of the difficulties of life, I couldn't calm down to study, and now I live in Yongping Houye, I want to have fabrics, and I want colored threads to have colored threads, how not to study what she is best at, but to work these ordinary auspicious patterns. Even if there is any change, as Master Jian said, this change only brings speed, and good embroidery never talks about speed.

Master Jian knew her very well, and seeing that she was silent, he smiled and said, "Don't guess, I'll tell you the truth." I want to open an embroidery workshop! ”

Eleven Niang was taken aback: "Master? ”

Xian Yage invited several times, and many wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan suggested, but Master Jian did not agree. Why did you suddenly think of opening an embroidery workshop now?

Master Jian supported Qiu Ju who was branching out on the side.

"Originally, I was alone, and I didn't have to worry about feeding the whole family. Now that there is Qiu Ju by her side, she can't let her be like me, floating all over the world, embroidering to the point that people can't move when they go to Yizhuang but are crippled, right? ”

Master Jian has always been a self-reliant and self-reliant person. This is also the reason why she didn't expect to pick up Master Jian after she arrived in Yanjing. It is not a simple matter to open an embroidery workshop, especially for a woman.

She muttered, "Where is the master going to drive?" If it's not decided, why don't you open it in Yanjing? ”

"That's what I mean." Master Jian smiled, "I not only want to open an embroidery workshop in Yanjing, but I also want to drag you into the water and become our major shareholder." ”

This is Master Jane.

Generous.

"Looks like you've had an idea." Eleven Niang supported her face with her elbows and looked at Master Jian with a smile.
