Li Jiaoer spent most of her time in the Karakura Pavilion when she was a child.

My grandfather married my grandmother Zhang, and after everyone had carving skills, the couple only had one daughter in their lives, named Tang Ying, who was Li Jiaoer's mother.

In the hearts of others, the Dudao Tang family only had a daughter in the end, and this skill was bound to be broken.

But I don't want Tang Ying to be exposed to it since she was a child, and she loves to think, so her skills are not only above her parents, but also better at mechanics than her ancestors, and she also loves to restore the lost Mojia mechanism according to the ancient books, and when she is older, she is also fascinated by firearms.

Later, Tang Ying married Li Fu, and after having Li Jiaoer, she taught her skills to her daughter.

It's just that although Li Jiaoer is smart, she is lazy by nature and learns dispensable.

When she was a child, Li Jiaoer always thought that her life was very long, and she had a lot of time to study hard with her mother.

Unexpectedly, my mother died in childbirth, and then my grandfather was also overly sad and died within a few months.

After that, although the Karakuri Pavilion was still undefeated under the care of his grandmother, his grandmother was older after all, and she was not good at carving, so the Karakuri Pavilion was gradually declining, and now it is only a shelf.

Thinking of this, Li Jiaoer's heart was unspeakably sour and regretful.

She has shown extraordinary talent since she was a child, never forgetting, quick thinking, whether it is her mother teaching her skills, or her father teaching her to recognize medicine and acupuncture, she is all at once.

It's just that she's too lazy.

Because she can learn as soon as she learns, because she has her parents to take care of her, she doesn't care about many things; Her parents are not strong people, they only care about her character and behavior, and they do not force her to learn skills.

Therefore, Li Jiaoer is fluent in everything and loose in everything, and what she is best at is the carving she learned from her grandmother.

Even later, she refused to go to the Karakura Pavilion for Xue Zhen, her father couldn't resist her, and her grandmother also said lovingly: "That's the Hou Mansion, we are already Gao Pan, we can't let people say that Jiaojiao is a carpenter, learning to play with flowers and plants, very good." ”

Only her mother's female apprentice, her senior sister, named Qin Le, was so angry that she scolded her for not being productive, and she didn't pay attention to her since then, and as long as she was there, Qin Le would inevitably leave.

After marrying into the Hou Mansion, due to Xue Zhen's cold treatment, the codex notes left by his grandfather and mother became Li Jiaoer's bitter pastime.

Come to think of it, my sister was really right at that time, she was really unproductive, she didn't want to study hard when she was a child, and she wanted to learn when she grew up, but her mother and grandfather couldn't teach her anymore.

Li Jiaoer stopped in front of the door of the Karakuri Pavilion, thinking a lot and hesitating.

Now the shop has not yet opened, and the door panel is still on it.

She sighed heavily, turned her head to Yun Tuan, and said, "Yun Tuan, otherwise, you can go and see if Senior Sister is there......"

Yun Tuan, who was holding the burden, was angry and funny, and refused to move, only said, "Miss Qin must be there." ”

Li Jiaoer was helpless, and walked forward with heavy steps.

Suddenly, at this time, a burly and sturdy shopkeeper with a beard came around from the back of the room, and when he saw that Li Jiaoer was coming, he thought he had seen it wrong.

The little proprietor hasn't been to the Karakura Pavilion for four or five years.

He hurriedly laughed:

"Madam, the little one didn't see it clearly, please don't blame Madame! Why is Madame here today? Is it something that the Hou Mansion is going to do? ”

Li Jiaoer can't listen to words like Hou Fu and Mrs. now.

Xue Zhen looked down on the Karakuri Pavilion so much, so he wouldn't use the things of the Karakuri Pavilion.

She cleaned up her mood and smiled at the shopkeeper: "Brother Zhao is good, you don't have to call me Mrs., just call me the little boss as before." Brother Zhao added Ding to his family last month, and I haven't congratulated you yet. ”

"Thank you for your concern, the little owner sent a congratulatory gift, and the whole family is very grateful." Zhao said sincerely, hurriedly dismantled the door panel, and asked Li Jiaoer inside, "The little proprietor is invited, it's a shame that I'm here today, we just received Bohou's dowry list in the store, and we're going to be busy, the little proprietor will come tomorrow, I'm afraid that the place to stay will be gone." ”

"And my grandmother too?" Li Jiaoer hurriedly asked, she wanted to go to her grandmother's house after the evening today.

"The old boss led a few masters to Bohou's Mansion early in the morning, and he wanted to give the picture to Mrs. Hou, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while," Zhao said, peeking at Li Jiao'er and reminding, "But the four shopkeepers are here." ”

The fourth shopkeeper is Qin Le.

And up and down the Karakuri Pavilion, who doesn't know the contradiction between Qin Le and Li Jiaoer?

Li Jiao'er didn't avoid this, but followed Zhao Guy through the front store with various styles of furniture, and went to the courtyard at the back, and said with a smile: "Since she is the shopkeeper, when will she not be there?" ”

*

The open-air courtyard is very spacious, and more than a dozen craftsmen, including old masters and junior apprentices, are busy preparing all kinds of red lacquer, mahogany, etc.

Among them, there was also a young woman of about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with wheat skin, crossed head, a plain silver hairpin, sleeves and a large shopkeeper hanging ink line.

It was Qin Le.

Seeing Li Jiao'er coming in, everyone hurriedly put down the work in their hands, and there were even a few young craftsmen with bare shoulders and sleeves rolled up, so panicked that they blushed and dodged and dressed.

"Ma'am?"

"Why is Madame here?"

"Zhao Er didn't say hello, Mrs. go to the back hall and sit, it smells bad here."

Only Qin Le's face immediately sank, he let out a snort with his nose, threw down the ink line, turned around and left.

The guys were embarrassed and silent, and the big shopkeeper complained to Qin Le's back and said, "No matter how big Miss Qin's temperament is, she shouldn't lose her temper with the guy who eats, Master Zu will blame her." ”

Qin Le didn't look back and said, "Hmph, then I'll go and apologize to Master Zu." ”

So saying, the man strode into the side room.

Looking at her like this, Li Jiao'er, who was still worried, laughed out loud instead.

The big shopkeeper said helplessly: "Madame, don't be angry with Miss Qin, why is Madam here today?" ”

"Grandpa He can just call me by my name, or call me Xiaodong," Li Jiaoer said with a soft smile, "I want to get a set of medicine cabinets for my father, I went home yesterday and saw that Renxintang had expanded somewhat, but the medicine cabinet was still old." ”

The big shopkeeper didn't expect Li Jiaoer to come, and he didn't expect her to say that she would make things herself, and she was very happy.

When the little owner was a child, his intelligence was not inferior to the big owner, but unfortunately his heart was not here.

He hurriedly said: "It just so happens that a few days ago, a new batch of good sandalwood was collected, and there was a batch of ebony wood before, which was originally wanted in King Qing's mansion, but who knew that his family later changed to wenge wood, so that batch of Ujin was left." ”

Li Jiaoer hurriedly waved her hand: "It doesn't have to be so precious, ash or pear wood can be done." ”

"Yes, a set of ash, soaked and dried in the new year, the texture is also excellent, I asked people to move out of the library for the little owner."

"I'm not busy, I listen to Grandpa He, I'm handy, and when I do it, I have to ask Grandpa to show me."

"Nature, nature."

After deciding on this side, Li Jiaoer asked everyone to go to the busy side, and she walked to the side room with the clouds.

She had already seen that when she was talking to the big shopkeeper, there was always a shadow on the window of the side room.

It was obvious that Qin Le was eavesdropping on them.
