The sun is hard to see today, and the temperature is a little higher than the previous day.

Jiang was embroidering a handkerchief in the pavilion of the cloister, she held a piece of plain silk wrapped in a bamboo circle in her left hand, rows of colored threads of different colors were placed on the stone table next to her, and she was dancing with an embroidery needle in her right hand.

"Bring me a needle and a blue thread."

Lin Wangshu watched with relish from the sidelines, and when he heard Jiang's words, he turned his head to find the blue thread on the table and took a needle to thread the thread into it.

It's just that she squinted her eyes, and she didn't match them for a while, and she was a little impatient for a while, and her cheeks were red.

Jiang Shi saw her needle-threading appearance, and laughed out loud.

"Whoever threads a needle like you, come to me, and my aunt will teach you." Lin Wangshu handed over the needle and thread and blinked.

I saw that Jiang first put one end of the colored thread in his hand and twisted it around, and the end of the thread was twisted into a sharp corner. I picked up the embroidery needle and threaded it through the needle hole, and the thread came smoothly.

"Do you understand?" The Jiang clan raised the needle and thread in his hand towards Lin Wangshu and teased.

She nodded, looking at the handkerchief in Jiang's hand and feeling very novel, "Auntie, why do you use two needles for embroidery, what a special embroidery method." ”

Jiang looked at the handkerchief in his hand, and his thoughts were a little distant, "This is called double-needle embroidery, this embroidery method is complicated, and there are not many people who know it now, this is still given to me by my mother when I was a child, and my mother was a famous embroiderer in Jiangnan when she was young." ”

"Wow," Lin Wangshu was taken aback, "Auntie is from Jiangnan?" Then how did you and your second uncle get together? ”

Lin Wangshu's gossip heart ignited, and he sat upright on the stone bench, with his hands on his cheeks, and looked at Jiang with a curious expression.

Jiang Shi freed up a hand, tapped her head, and couldn't help laughing, "You little girl." ”

"Oh, auntie said, say it quickly, don't be embarrassed."

She grabbed the hand that flicked her head and shook it, trying to coquettishly try to be coquettish. Seeing that Jiang showed a helpless smile, Lin Wangshu immediately let go of his hand with a smile, turned around and poured a cup of tea for Jiang.

"Auntie, please."

Jiang shook his head dotingly, the embroidery in his hand kept moving, and said with a smile: "That was more than ten years ago." When I was in Jiangnan to take care of my mother's embroidery shop, the second master was a merchant from Yanling at that time, and accidentally saw the embroidery patterns in our shop, so he wanted to talk to us about a business. ”

"But this embroidery method is only my mother, and I will only do it, according to the second master's intention back then, I want to bring a large number of embroidery back, which can not be finished by the two of us alone. Although the business was not completed, it became familiar with it after coming and going. Later, during the Lantern Festival, he asked me out to enjoy the lanterns and expressed his heart to me. ”

"Where did he fancy my talent, and everything he did business was an excuse."

When Jiang thought of the Lantern Festival that year, he couldn't help but sigh with disgust, and he was still a little embarrassed on his face.

Lin Wangshu hid his face and smiled, looking at Lin Qingyun who was directing people to prune the branches in the garden on the side, he didn't expect that Second Uncle Lin, a person who looked so calm on weekdays, would be like this when he was young.

"I can't imagine it, this will be something that the second uncle could do back then, I can't see it!"

Jiang's face was slightly red, and he pointed to the figure on the side, "Don't let him know that I told you this, otherwise he will blow his nose and stare at me behind his back." ”

"Auntie, don't worry, I understand, I understand." She made a closed mouth expression at Jiang, but she still couldn't help but want to laugh.

"However, count the days, and in a few days it will be the Lantern Festival."

Jiang nodded, "But you want to make an appointment with Ah Kite?" I was getting ready to go with Mrs. Lee. ”

"That's great!" Sure enough, my aunt understands her, the ancient Lantern Festival, I don't know what it will be like.

The two were still discussing the travel plan for the Lantern Festival, and here Lin Qingfeng stepped into the gate of the Lin Mansion in a hurry, his brows seemed to be twisted into a dead knot.

The sleeves of his coat flew up, and he strode in as he strode in, scolding, "I'm so angry, shameless old thief." ”

He walked through the winding corridor and saw Jiang and Lin Wangshu sitting in the pavilion, talking and laughing.

Lin Qingfeng walked quickly to the two of them indignantly, grabbed the teapot on the stone table and poured himself a cup of tea, not to mention tasting it, he directly drank three cups of belly, and his complexion eased slightly.

Lin Wangshu and Jiang Shi had been dumbfounded since he rushed over to pour tea in a rage, and at this time they saw him pouring several cups of tea and looking at each other.

"Daddy, what's going on, why are you so angry?"

Lin Qingfeng sat on the stone bench next to the two of them, still holding the cup in his hand, his face was pale, "I'm angry!" What the hell! ”

Lin Qingyun, who was still supervising the work under the pavilion, saw his eldest brother like this at this time, and stepped up the stairs in three steps and two steps, helplessly holding his forehead, "Big brother, pay attention to elegance." ”

"Elegant fart! Can you eat it as a meal? What kind of thing is that dog thief, and he is messing up his ideas and deceiving the lord. ”

Lin Qingfeng slammed the cup he was holding on the stone table, and the cup cracked.

"Oh my God, big brother, you are Wenchen, why are you still rude, so vulgar Wangshu is still there, you pay attention to the influence." Lin Qingyun grabbed his hand holding the cup and removed the cup that had cracked.

Lin Qingfeng stared at the cup, snorted heavily, and didn't speak angrily.

A family of four gathered around the table, staring wide-eyed.

"Big brother, are you being bullied by the court again?" Lin Qingyun said worriedly, and the Jiang family also looked at him with a concerned face.

"Yes, Dad, you talk about it, don't hold it back, it's easy to get angry."

"Originally, I didn't want to talk about these court matters, so since you insist on asking, I have to say it."

The three of them looked embarrassed, "Ah, yes, yes, yes, we forced you to say it, say it quickly." ”

These words seemed to open a hole for Lin Qingfeng, he looked unhappy, and his face was full of anger and began to output a meal.

"You don't know what the old thief said today."

"Isn't it a good thing that the grain and grass have been recovered? What a great thing! Who is he showing with a black face? ”

"And that Jingzhou form is urgent, a clear-eyed person will suggest opening the treasury, what does he want to do? Increase taxes! Conscription! ”

"Did he do it on purpose or was he really brainless? Jingzhou is already barren, and if taxes are increased, how can the local people live? Your Majesty actually listened! ”

"I'm not saying that Your Majesty is bad, it's just that this old thief looks at me with that kind of eyes! What do you mean? Is he still proud of this method? ”

Lin Qingfeng's spitting star flew straight away, and his face turned red. Lin Wangshu was afraid that he would faint, so he hurriedly poured him tea again, and Lin Qingyun patted him on the back to give him relief.

"Dad, you take it slowly, take a sip of tea first."

Lin Qingfeng took it, leaned the tea to his lips and took it away suddenly, and put it aside, his voice was crisp,

"Dad, you are angry, this cup is very... Quite expensive. ”

Lin Wangshu stretched out two fingers to pull the cup of tea to his side for a distance, looked up and saw Lin Qingfeng's palm slapping on the table, and began to speak excitedly.

"The most hateful thing is that you know what it is?"

Everyone shook their heads and looked at him with a look of horror, they had never seen Lin Qingfeng get so angry.

"That dog thief got cheap and behaved, and actually wanted me and Brother Li to help him do this unconscionable mess."

"Then big brother, you and General Li agreed?"

"Whew!" Lin Qingfeng's face was raised, and his face showed disdain, "Is I, Lin Qingfeng, that kind of person?" Brother Li and I refused on the spot, this dog thing, you have the ability to do it yourself. ”

Lin Qingfeng said a long list, and this will finally be over. Sitting on a stool panting, he reached out and took a sip of the cup of tea he hadn't drunk just now.

The three of them heard him talk like this, and they understood it.

Lin Wangshu hesitated and asked, "In this way, Daddy is angry, does he approve of the advice given by this Lord Du?" ”

Lin Qingfeng pursed his lips and snorted "um" from his nose.

"Didn't Daddy analyze the stakes between the two with His Majesty?" Lin Wangshu was puzzled.

"I'm trying to explain, I'm trying to advise. What can I do if the Holy One doesn't listen to me? Lin Qingfeng sighed, and felt that something was not quite right, "On weekdays, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to be a person who can't tell these things, so why is it that the Holy Lord and the dog thief come from the court today?" ”
