At about the beginning of the year, the sky was bright, and Nuan Niang got up early.

Today is Qingming.

I sat in front of the dresser for a long time, and finally went out to freshen up. After returning, a little hesitation, or changed into a plain clothes, and hesitated after changing, worried about upsetting the little master, but after thinking about it, he didn't change it.

Go out again.

I happened to see the freehand who kept vigil last night and opened the door of the main house lightly, and looked at her, and some shyness seemed to flash in an instant.

Nuan Niang just lowered her head and lowered her eyebrows and whispered hello.

Not envious.

There was also movement in the east chamber soon, and then there was the back of the room, but everyone's steps were very light, and no one dared to take the fault of disturbing the little master.

Then, as usual, he came to open the courtyard door, and when he was about to go out, he called her.

There was a faint bad premonition, Nuan Niang didn't want to go, so she still moved her steps obediently to keep up, thinking in her heart that she was greedy for life and didn't die immediately, and what she suffered at the moment was God's punishment for her.

She's a deserving one.

In addition to firewood, charcoal, rice, vegetables and vegetables, there are also incense, candles, paper money, and several large baskets of fresh willow branches.

Qingming should be planted willows.

After handwriting checked them one by one, he sent firewood and rice and other things to all parts of the West Courtyard, and took them to distribute incense, candles, paper money, and inserted willow branches everywhere.

When I came to the courtyard in front of the inner house, I asked Nuan Niang to lead the people to distribute it, and at the same time, I also explained to a group of women, big and small, and the small officials specially ordered to prepare these sacrifices for their ancestors. In addition, you can also go to the garden outside today, and the swings have been set up in the garden two days ago, and there will be kites.

A group of people, big and small, are very grateful.

I don't expect to be able to go out, the host can be like this, which is already generous.

Zhu Yuan still got up late.

Last night, he refused to leave after helping him write a short log, and his resentful and self-pitying appearance was probably stimulated by Luo Shui the day before. However, no matter how pitiful it is, the petty officials who have been tired for a day are also powerless, and at most they can only let you squeeze in bed.

I got up late again, mainly because of today's holiday.

Ching ming festival.

The Navy Governor's Office and the Naval Department issued a notice a few days in advance, saying that they would have a day off except for the patrol that must be on duty today.

Zhu Yuan also felt that he should rest.

Otherwise, the temper that has been getting worse and worse lately may go even worse.

Zhu Yuan also considered it in private, and he would not be like this in his previous life. Considering the result, it is still because this body is too weak, and the body is not in good health, and even the psychological tolerance will deteriorate. In fact, there was one time before, Lao Zhu drew inferences from one another, completely disrupting his plan, and that time almost let him go back directly.

Fortunately, the results are good.

Zhu Yuan didn't want to come again.

The meteorological observation team in charge of Liu Lian gave the result that there was rain today, however, in the morning, the sky was still clear.

It's perfect for hiking.

Hua Gao also asked Zhu Yuan before if he wanted to go out for a walk today, but Zhu Yuan refused, and he didn't have the heart or strength to run around.

It is enough to walk around your own garden.

After breakfast, when the smell of fireworks and paper money gradually dissipated around him, Zhu Yuan came to the garden outside.

A few long-term 'monopoly' girls around them were finally willing to put a group of flowers and branches to show out to make their own petty officials pleasing to the eye, and came to the small pavilion on the top of the rockery, sitting on the soft backrest chair specially moved on the rockery, eating preserved fruit snacks, surrounded by warblers and swallows, laughter came from the two side-by-side swings set up below, and there were floating kites.

It's all relaxing.

So the lottery came out.

Let's draw a competition.

This time I won't sketch, each with their own good at traditional painting, the content is all kinds of gardens, Qingming frolicking pictures, the rule is that I can't be on the camera myself, and the others are arbitrary.

Draw the best and reward jewelry.

There is no such thing as a cone.

Because last time the young lady's? Bun incident, recently entrusted Fu Shou to buy a batch of women's jewelry of this era, after all, I also have to buy some for the big and small girls around me, Zhu Yuan likes that kind of pleasing to the eye, and with a wave of his hand, he approved 3,000 taels of silver for Fu Shou to buy.

Freehand began to be careful to say a few words, not to spend money indiscriminately, when the news of the opening of Zhiyong Zhai came, Nizi did not chatter.

After a few times in a row, Fu Shou also understood the sense of proportion, and the jewelry sent back may inevitably overflow, but it is not too much.

I've been too busy lately, and Zhu Yuan hasn't looked at it carefully.

Today, I happened to let Freehand move a few boxes of jewelry over and enjoy them carefully, and there is also a group of ready-made models around.

Ancient women's jewelry, just the head wearing, hairpin, hairpin, ring, step shake, Huasheng, hair, hair, etc., casually mentioned is a large string, and then with gold, silver, jade, agate, tortoiseshell, pearl and other materials, infinite permutations and combinations, the richness is far beyond the imagination of later generations.

As for the heroines in some costume dramas hundreds of years later, they often wear hairpins and hairpin rings, in this era, they definitely belong to the lowest level of poor ghosts, and only when they are so poor that they can't even afford to eat, they can't afford to have a hairpin tied together.

Poor thing!

A very enjoyable morning, at the beginning of the painting there is a reward, and then there is a reward for the piano and the zither, and then there is a reward for reading a few small poems that are appropriate for the occasion, and finally in the end, there will be nothing, and there is a reward for running to pretend to be pitiful and coquettish, a total of five large boxes of jewelry, and most of them will be dispersed in a blink of an eye.

Towards noon, the east wind rose, the sky turned cloudy, and soon it rained.

The rain was not heavy, and it was in the pavilion again, Zhu Yuan wanted to continue, but was persuaded to return to the inner house. After eating, I took a nap as usual, and when I woke up again, I could hear the sound of rain outside while sitting on the edge of the bed in the house.

Zhu Yuan was still suspicious of Liu Lian's weather forecast in the morning, so he had to confirm it at this time.

I am also looking forward to the next grain ship going to sea.

Washed up simply, transferred to the Westinghouse study, remembered, found the account book received a few days in advance and the congratulatory list on the opening day and flipped through it, and after that day, Lu Liang, the shopkeeper of Zhiyongzhai, also wrote a letter to him, saying that the general Xu Da also sent his family to the scene that day, and Zhu Yuan was neither surprised nor surprised.

In memory, Xu Da is a very cautious person.

Other generals were arrogant and arrogant, all kinds of arbitrary behavior, these things did not appear to Xu Da, not only that, but there were many jokes about how Xu Da insisted on his duty as a courtier in front of Lao Zhu.

However, being cautious and persistent does not mean that Xu Da is a lonely minister.

A lone minister can't be the commander of a large army.

In fact, according to Zhu Yuan's feelings from reading history in his previous life, the Xu family is a smart person.

When the two sides first met, Zhu Yuan believed that he had left a deep impression on Xu Da, and Xu Da should have heard about what happened in Jinling in the past few months, even if he was on the front line. When many people thought that Zhu Yuan won the trust of Lao Zhu with his boastful Haikou, Xu Da should be able to see more.

Therefore, this time when Zhiyongzhai opened, the Xu family came forward once, and they did not pay anything in substance, but they were able to win Zhu Yuan's favor, which is a very cost-effective thing.

Zhu Yuan is very affectionate.

Moreover, Zhu Yuan also likes to socialize with smart people.

When the young lady who was carefully dressed up again entered the door with Nuan Niang, Zhu Yuan let go of these and didn't think about it anymore.

Brain cells are still needed where they are needed.

Turning around slightly, he clapped his hands and summoned the young lady to his side, held the woman's waist and looked at it, and asked with a smile: "This is very pleasing to the eye, what kind of bun?" ”

Qing Niang took the initiative to bow down and said softly: "Liuyun bun." ”

Zhu Yuan nodded again: "Beautiful." ”

Saying this, he motioned for the young lady to sit on the round stool next to him, and Zhu Yuan said: "I remembered, I promised to design the jewelry for you personally, and I happened to have time today." ”

Saying that, he took out the charcoal pen from the pen holder, spread out the paper again, and began to write to the young lady next to him, the young lady wanted to refuse, after all, the little officials have been very tired these days, and they are still reluctant to think about it, so they sit down obediently.

Zhu Yuan was drawing, and when he saw the envious eyes of several people next to him, he smiled and said, "If the painting is done, it will be counted as your share." ”

Saying that, he remembered what he had just said about Zhiyongzhai, and said to Luo Shui: "There are many people who can paint in the front yard, and the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas' series can be continued." ”

Luo Shui nodded in agreement.

Accidentally noticed Nuan Niang, Zhu Yuan said again: "Didn't you say that you can also draw, I didn't see you start writing in the morning, it seems that you are a master who does not shoot easily, take the time to draw a few for me to see." ”

Nuan Niang whispered again.

said so casually, and soon, a young lady in the shape of a Miao Jiang Gu girl covered in silver jewelry appeared on the paper. Although in contrast, even Zhu Yuan himself can't stand the painting skills, at least the details and outlines that should be there are there, and it is not a problem to use them for the craftsman to refer to the system.

This was an idea that Zhu Yuan had very early on.

As long as the young lady doesn't show that kind of soft mud temperament, she wears red lips, adds a set of smoky eye makeup, and makes a set of Miao girl costumes, which is absolutely amazing.

Of course, this is certainly not suitable for wearing out, and can only be enjoyed in the house.

Well.

Wrong.

Like what Zhu Yuan doesn't like very much? Bun, it only appeared in the Song Dynasty, and before that, there was none. And now, it has gone one step further and become a sign of a married woman.

How do you say that?

Very simple.

Aesthetics can be instilled!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan's brain couldn't help but run automatically, and thought of other things. Perhaps, the women's jewelry business can also be done at home, or a routine with Zhiyongzhai to build a brand, and then like the luxury brands of later generations, do not sell the right, only sell the expensive!

Compared with the fountain pen business, the women's jewelry business, the market size does not know how much bigger!

Moreover, Zhu Yuan couldn't understand the routine.

What do luxury goods sell?

Aesthetic?

Spit!

People sell the right to speak.

The right to speak in aesthetics.

It's like a luxury brand making a garbage bag and saying it's beautiful, saying it's design, and it's tens of thousands of dollars, and a bunch of people will come to buy it.

If you dare to question ......

You look at my letters, you look at my trademark, you dare to question, how old are you?

This is the realm.

Zhu Yuan felt that as long as he operated properly, had the identity aura of 'being a master outside the world', and then got the support of Lao Zhu, he could also be an aesthetic indoctrinator of the Ming Dynasty and occupy the commanding heights.

It's a sense of accomplishment when you think about it!
