Chapter Twenty-Eight: Get some money and leave
"What is it called to cause trouble for you, I am for your good."
"Don't be nosy."
Gu Youwei glared at her angrily and didn't speak again.
For a moment, all that remained in the room was the rustle of the plectrum rubbing against the warp.
Gu Youwei wasn't really angry, seeing that she was so serious, he relaxed his movements and left.
The east side of the cottage was quiet in the morning, but in the afternoon, something happened.
When everyone went to the kitchen to have lunch and came back, a weaver girl had an argument with the sixth brother of the Tang family.
Tang Liu was twelve years old, the most restless age, and he was reluctant to be taught silk threads by a maid in that room, so he slipped into the hall where the weaver girls worked.
Originally, I wanted to see the silk made by a weaver girl, but I accidentally dropped the sugar cake on the silk.
Sugar and oil stains ruined a work, and the Weaver Girl's hard work for several days was in vain, crying for Tang Liu to make amends.
If Tang Liu admits his mistake or has a better attitude, the Weaver Girl will not make a big deal out of it, but Tang Liu not only denies it, but also accuses the Weaver Girl of being cautious and wants to drive the Weaver Girl out of the Tang Mansion.
Tang Jiao heard this as soon as she came in, her footsteps paused for a moment, and she stood at the door and didn't go in.
"I was recruited by Miss, what can you do to drive me away?" This weaver girl is naturally not afraid of things.
"This master is my cousin, when I learn to reel, what do I want you to do? You'll have to fuck me off when the time comes. ”
This Tang Liu's face was proud, and he was so angry that several weaver girls scolded him.
"Can you bear this?"
Gu Youwei didn't know when he was behind her, so he asked her in a low voice.
Tang Jiao snorted, "Didn't people just say it, call me my father and cousin." ”
Saying that, Tang Jiao walked into the house, and there was silence for a moment, and that Tang Liu stepped forward with a compliment, "Sister Jiaojiao, you're back." ”
"Why are you here? Recognize all the threads? Tang Jiao smiled, very gentle.
"Not yet, just come and have a look."
The show girl wiping her tears couldn't help but step forward and tell Tang Liu about soiling her silk.
Tang Jiao's demeanor did not change at all, and she still smiled, "That's it, it's okay." ”
Tang Liu was greatly relieved when he heard her words, and his expression became even more proud.
"Xiaoliu go to the east room to continue to recognize silk threads, and I will teach you silk threads tomorrow."
"Okay, it's all up to Sister Jiaojiao's arrangement."
Tang Liu left, and the smile on Tang Jiao's face disappeared in an instant.
Just now she said that, these weaver girls felt very uncomfortable, Tang Jiao swept their expressions, and soothed: "Forgive me, this is the Tang Mansion, and I don't have that much right, everyone bear with it first, and when Mr. Wei finishes the new workshop, we will move over, and no one will be angry." ”
As soon as she said this, everyone's expressions were really much better, and Tang Jiao even called the Weaver Girl who had destroyed the silk to the inner room, appeased her for a long time, and promised her to raise the price of the next work.
Gu Youwei was so angry that he grinded his teeth when he looked at her.
"I said you are really a soft bun, and you are bullied like this? If you tell the master about this, I won't believe him conniving at his relatives so much. ”
"It's all silver."
Tang Jiao looked at Gu Youwei, in the previous life, she was full of joy and admiration for Gu Youwei, but now looking at him like this, she felt that he was stupid for the first time.
"Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be confused?"
"What do you mean?"
Tang Jiao snorted, "What did you do when my father asked these relatives to come?" ”
"Learn to make silk."
"yes, learn the craft from me."
Gu Youwei wrinkled his eyebrows as if he didn't understand what was going on.
Tang Jiao sneered: "I almost forgot, you are my father's person." ”
Gu Youwei's expression moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward, "Don't, although I am employed by the master, in my heart, I am your person." ”
Flim tongue, Tang Jiao didn't believe him.
"Why, you don't believe me, what I said is true."
Gu Youwei stepped forward, but whenever Tang Jiao raised his eyes to look at him, he would definitely be able to see the extraordinarily serious look in his eyes.
But Tang Jiao didn't look up, she was doing silk seriously.
Gu Youwei retracted his gaze with slight disappointment.
Sitting next to him, Gu Youwei couldn't help but think carefully about what Tang Jiao had just said, and thought of the look of being wary of Tang Jiao when the master sent him to Tang Jiao's side, something flashed in his mind in an instant and he caught it in time.
After a pause, he asked, "No, you and the master still have two hearts?" ”
"Don't worry, I'll help you." He said firmly.
"Get out, don't bother me." Tang Jiao's tone was impatient.
Gu Youwei retreated to the chair next to him and sat down, "Okay, I won't bother you." ”
Tang Jiao didn't bother to take care of him, and moved the shuttle and plectrum in her hand quickly.
It didn't take long for the fat girl to come in with a pout, first poured herself a big sip of tea, and then began to pour bitter water.
"I'm angry with the slaves, those people are big-handed, where is the material to do such delicate work? Finally figured out the color, the slave and maid taught them to divide the line, they were good, they were all messed up! ”
Tang Jiao was amused by her appearance, "You just teach as you like, don't worry about them." ”
"Miss, why are you staying ......" The fat girl wanted to complain, but raised her eyes to catch a glimpse of Gu You next to her to stop her mouth.
glared at Gu Youwei, and the fat girl went out angrily again.
"Hey, you little girl is still glaring at me, I recruited her to provoke her?"
Tang Jiao looked at him, "Are you here and I are your resting place?" Get out. ”
"Then I'm leaving, something will call me."
Gu Youwei left, and Tang Jiao settled down to do things.
She didn't tell Tang Jiude about today's events.
In the next few days, she personally taught the six people to silk, but only Xiaodouzi could learn these things and learn them seriously.
Several people are becoming more and more sluggish, and even Tang Jiao can't look at them, one after another is like an uncle, which makes the weaving workshop complain.
Tang Jiao saw these in her eyes, but she never restrained them, which fueled their arrogance even more.
On this day, Wei Shulin went to Shangpin, sold a few works, and brought back fifty taels of silver from the last work.
Tang Jiao received fifty percent, and the rest was divided among the ten weaver girls.
It took half a month to get two taels of silver, but it made the six people red-eyed.
You know, they raise a pig until the year before selling it at this price.
As soon as they thought of making this thing so profitable, they were motivated to learn.
But this atmosphere lasted for less than two days, and the five people led by Tang Liu realized that this was not done by ordinary people at all.
Every day, when he stared at a small piece of fabric, his eyes were sore and swollen, and in the afternoon, Tang Jiao looked at it and said that it was not done well, so he did it again.
Before they came, Tang Jiude told them that after they learned these things, they could stay in the Tang family forever.
But where is this thing so easy to learn?
Instead of wasting time here, you might as well grab some money and leave.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Tang Liu couldn't sit still that day, and wandered around.
looked around and touched the inner room where Tang Jiao was making silk.
