Chapter 139: Autumn (1)
When the autumn wind blows, Jiang Wanmu's needlework, after two years of tempering, can finally meet the world. After Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan learned a little about simple double-sided embroidery, they embroidered ten women's handkerchiefs very carefully, five of which were embroidered for Ji Yan as a thank you gift. Ji Yan took the handkerchief, and in order to encourage Jiang Wanmu to continue to work hard, he praised her sincerely two or three times and said, "Yes, close to my level." β
After Jiang Wanmu heard Ji Yan's approval, she continued to work hard and embroidered more than ten men's handkerchiefs. On that day, in front of Ji Yan, she gave Mugen more than ten hand-embroidered men's handkerchiefs. Mu Gen, who took the veil, smiled and squinted and said, "My sister's embroidery skills are good, I like this veil." After hearing this, Jiang Wanmu looked at Ji Yan beside her with a smile, and whispered to her: "Did you hear it, I asked you to embroider a handkerchief and send it to my brother, you always pushed back, and I robbed me of the credit." Fangzheng, who was joining in the excitement on the side, saw the handkerchief in Mugen's hand and was extremely red, and snatched half of the handkerchief from Mugen's hand.
When night fell quietly, Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan sat in the room, each bowing their heads and doing the needlework in their hands. After a long time, Jiang Wanmu raised the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and looked carefully under the candlelight. Ji Yan heard the movement, looked up and saw the handkerchief in Jiang Wanmu's hand, she looked at the smile on Jiang Wanmu's face, and then smiled, but in a slight tilt of her head, she looked at a few boxes placed next to Jiang Wanmu, and couldn't help but shake her head lightly in her heart, and those boxes contained the handkerchiefs that Jiang Wanmu had recently embroidered.
Jiang Wanmu was the first batch of embroidered handkerchiefs since the needle angle could be made evenly, and after receiving Ji Yan's praise, she became fanatical about making handkerchiefs. In addition to practicing writing every day, she devoted all her attention to making handkerchiefs. Ji Yan thought that with Jiang Wanmu's current enthusiasm for making handkerchiefs, he was afraid that in the next ten years, the men, women and children of the two families would not be able to use up the handkerchiefs. Jiang Wanmu glanced at the flowers dotted on the corner of the handkerchief in her hand, held it up to Ji Yan, and said in her mouth: "I have made several handkerchief styles." You can try selling handkerchiefs in the shop. β
When Ji Yan heard Jiang Wanmu's words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a smile: "Miss." You turned out to embroider to consign, that's great. Miss, everyone likes the style of your embroidery. It's going to sell very well. Jiang Wanmu looked at her with a smile and said, "We can't sell it, we can use it for our own use." Ji Yan looked at Jiang Wanmu with a bitter face and said, "Miss." It's going to sell. If it weren't for Miss's current intentions, I was worried that when my sister-in-law entered the door in the future, her family's handkerchiefs could be directly wrapped for Miss. β
Jiang Wanmu looked at Ji Yan's bitter face, her mood was unusually good, and she said to her with a smile: "Don't worry, I look at my handkerchief." The style is delicate and good-looking. Besides, it was your brother who took the initiative to tell me to put the handkerchief in the store and sell it on consignment. I can practice my hands and earn money at the same time, and I will earn as much as I want. If this handkerchief sells quickly, I will only have to come up with tricks in the future, and the embroiderer will do it in the store, and then I will put the handkerchief with the mark of our store and sell it to the central and southern parts. β
Fang Zheng took Jiang Wanmu's embroidered handkerchief last time and divided two pieces for his master. The shopkeeper is an expert, and after taking a closer look. Immediately, the other party was proposing: "The owner has a wonderful idea, the pattern of this handkerchief looks small and chic, but it does not affect the atmosphere of the whole handkerchief." You tell the proprietor to think of more patterns to embroider, and we will try to sell them in the store first. Business will be good in the future. Think of other ways to sell it. Fang Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt that this was a good way. He just looked at Jiang Wanmu's embroidered handkerchief, the pattern was not eye-catching, and it did not affect the manly anger of the person who used the handkerchief, so he grabbed a few pieces from Mugen's hand for his own use. Fang Zheng listened to the master's understanding of a matter that could be linked to business, and felt that he was too tender in this regard.
Ji Yan heard the meaning of Jiang Wanmu's words, and thought that if the handkerchief was sold well, he would ask the embroidery girl to do more work. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately said, "Miss, you don't need to ask the embroidery lady to do it, my mother and I can take this job." Jiang Wanmu smiled and bent down when she heard this, and said, "Ji Yan, if the style of the handkerchief can be sold to Zhongnan, we and your mother and mother will not be able to finish those embroidery work." You, when the time comes, just embroider more patterns, you can do better than me. Ji Yan thought about it after hearing this, and asked in disbelief: "Miss, can I also make tricks?" β
Jiang Wanmu couldn't help but shake her head when she heard this, Ji Yan's courage has increased over the years, and she has grown a lot compared to when she was young, and she can appear quite stable and generous when facing outsiders. It's just that no matter what, it can't change the timidity in her bones, and she has always been careful and careful in her daily life. In any case, I believe that people with vision can't deny Ji Yan's talent in needlework. Her mind is clever, the same clothes, the same colors, the clothes she makes are more spiritual than those made by others.
After Jiang Wanmu learned to make clothes, she never dared to embroider on her clothes, she was afraid that it would affect the beauty of the whole clothes. She likes to make handkerchiefs, because the space for embroidering with handkerchiefs is small, the flowers are small, and the weakness of her skills is not easy to be discovered. Promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, Jiang Wanmu still understands, in this aspect of embroidery, she can't catch up with Ji Yan's skills and spirituality. Jiang Wanmu nodded vigorously to Ji Yan again, she believed that Ji Yan had potential in this regard, and hoped that she could rely on her own efforts in the future to make her life better.
In the homes of the common people of the Ning Dynasty, there were not so many rules for women, after all, survival was the most important thing. The men at the head of the family did not object to the women coming out to do some embroidery work to earn some pocket money, but they were proud of their embroidery skills. When Jiang Wanmu first heard this, she was very envious of those women, and felt that they were more autonomous at home than women from famous families, and they also had the right to speak at home. Jiang Wanmu knew that Mugen was simple in nature, and it would be difficult to make a fortune in the future. But as a husband, he is quite a good person.
Jiang Wanmu glanced at Ji Yan who was excited, and listened to her say: "Miss, I also want to come up with some new tricks tomorrow, I will also start making handkerchiefs tomorrow, I want to let the store have more handkerchiefs to sell." γγγγ" Jiang Wanmu smiled and listened to her incoherently talk about the future, days with dreams are good days. Ji Yan's whole little face blushed excitedly, she talked for a long time, but she didn't remember that she didn't have the fabric in her hand to make a veil. And she said in her mouth that there is not enough embroidery thread in her hand, and she will go to buy some good embroidery thread tomorrow.
The night was darker again, Jiang Wanmu looked at Ji Yan with a smile, and heard the surprised voice of Lian Hao greeted outside: "Third master, come back tonightγγ? Jiang Wanmu in the room glanced at Ji Yan who stopped talking, and when she saw her, she also had a surprised look on her face, her eyes flashed slightly, and she said softly: "It's none of our business, after he leaves in a while, you will go back to the room to sleep, and we will go out early tomorrow." As soon as her words fell, she heard the sound of knocking on the door outside the room, accompanied by Lian Hao's shout: "Wanmu, open the door, I have something to say to you." β
Jiang Wanmu frowned slightly at Ji Yan and whispered, "You remember not to close the door, just open it there." Ji Yan went to open the door and welcomed Lian Hao in. Jiang Wanmu quickly put away a few boxes on the table, leaving only a handkerchief that was too late to put into the box. When Lian Hao came in, Jiang Wanmu stood up and greeted him with a smile: "Third master, are you resting today?" Lian Hao sat down, glanced at Jiang Wanmu, who was standing still, motioned for her to sit down, and said, "Rest tomorrow, I have something to tell you, I'll come back tonight." β
Since Jiang Wanmu snatched her two pieces of jade from her, she didn't know what else she and Lian Hao had to say. Jiang Wanmu reached out and touched her empty neck, she smiled and let go of her hand to look at Lian Hao. saw that he was signaling Ji Yan with his eyes, but Ji Yan lowered his eyes and didn't see his little eyes. Jiang Wanmu lowered her eyes and thought that Ji Yan had been more beautiful recently, which made Lian Hao notice her. Now that I see that in the future, I still want her to see Lian Hao rarely, and don't cause her some irrelevant things when the time comes.
Lian Hao glanced at the master and servant who also lowered their eyes, and he said directly to Jiang Wanmu: "Wanmu, let the people around you go down, I have something to tell you." Jiang Wanmu raised her eyes to look at him, and saw that it was indeed not early, and at this hour, she didn't want Lian Hao to stay in the room too late. She opened her mouth and said to Ji Yan, "Ji Yan, you go out for a while." Remember, I have something to tell you, wait outside for a while, and then come in later. Ji Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and he smiled and said, "Yes, Miss, I'm waiting outside." β
After Ji Yan left the room, Lian Hao was extremely unhappy, and whispered to Jiang Wanmu: "Wanmu, I look at you as if you have forgotten yourself or my wife's business?" Jiang Wanmu only laughed slightly after hearing this, and said, "Third Master, are you here to talk to me about this tonight?" Is it a reminder that I can still do your mother's thing? You are smarter than me, and your knowledge and insight are better than mine, so it is better for you to count me, and it is better to count the number of days. Lian Hao listened to Jiang Wanmu's words, but instead of getting angry, he looked at her with a smile on his face.
Jiang Wanmu looked at Lian Hao's smiling face, and couldn't help but panic a little in her heart, her body stiffened and straightened. Thinking that it was getting late, Lian Hao had never come at night, and his sudden arrival drove away the people around her. This kind of Lian Hao seems to be a different person, giving people an inexplicable demonic feeling. She didn't know how Lian Hao would deal with herself, and her heart kept jumping. Lian Hao glanced at Jiang Wanmu, who looked a little flustered, and said with a smile: "Wanmu, you think about it too much, I just said a word, and you replied to me two or three sentences." No, I took your two pieces of jade last time, and now I found a green jade bead chain, just for you to use with that jade, you quickly replace the red winding thread, and use this jade chain to hang it for me to see? β
Jiang Wanmu looked at the jade chain in front of her, and then at Lian Hao, who was urging herself. She reached out and touched her neck, shook her head at Lian Hao and said, "I don't need this jade chain, that piece of jade is not here with me now." Lian Hao looked at Jiang Wanmu with some disbelief and said, "That is the peace jade that was personally opened by the host of Guangming Temple, how could it not be with you?" Jiang Wanmu looked at him and didn't speak, her eyes were full of questions.
