Chapter 170: Embroidery

Jiang Zhimiao never knew that she actually had the ability to speak her mind, and she said that she wanted to eat crispy fish, but after half a day, she ate it.

When Wen Zhuqing came with the fried crispy fish, she was embroidering, yes, embroidery.

Since moving into a new home, there is no one to make a living in the family, seeing that Chuntao's family has sold tofu, Xu Yourong is anxious, so he embroiders some handkerchiefs and handkerchiefs and the like to sell them in the town day and night to add some household to the family.

She persuaded her, but it was useless, a person's determination could not be broken, persuasion was useless, so she also joined the camp of embroidery.

In the past, although she was a concubine in Jiang's mansion, her female popularity has never fallen, and her embroidery age has been eight or nine years.

The concubine is not valued by the main family, even if she goes to study, it is just a number, and the flower arrangement and tea that the concubine can learn to eat, in the eyes of the children of the concubine, there is a moat in the middle.

I don't know when it began, the government conventionally attributed those who looked noble, such as flower arrangement, tea tasting, horse riding, hammer pills, etc., to the children of the concubines, and the seemingly cumbersome and unshowy crafts of female workers tacitly accepted that the concubines could learn.

Speaking of which, when she was a child, she was asked by Jiang Zhili to embroider a handkerchief, at that time she had many embroidery skills, and her embroidery work was like a four-like, after replacing it once, she was scolded severely, and then later, she never asked her to do anything.

Her embroidery age is eight or nine years good, but her embroidery is really mediocre, tangible and godless, this is Jiang Zhimiao's evaluation of her embroidery, she can embroider the same, she has done her best.

In the generation of the Jiang family, only Jiang Zhiyue's embroidery is good, which is strange to say, but the military general's family has an extremely talented embroiderer Jiang Zhiyue, when Su Huaiqing said that he wanted to accept her as an apprentice, everyone was shocked.

Su Huaiqing, the autocratic Su embroidered in the palace, is a celebrity in front of the queen, and everyone who has been with him knows that this person is very arrogant, and has always been above the top, of course, she also has this ability to be above the top.

A person with such a high vision can say that she can accept Jiang Zhiyue as an apprentice, which shows that her talent is high, and she once envied her talent, thinking that if she can also worship her as a teacher, she will definitely be able to get rid of the predicament, but now that she has traveled to another world, her state of mind is much calmer.

It's hard to say if he's talented or not, just like Ge San, looking at his flamboyant appearance, who knows that he still has a good ability to pull the erhu with one hand.

According to Fang Huaihua, when he was young, his erhu was famous in this radius of more than ten miles, and everyone loved to invite him to play a song.

The pitch is good, the pull is good, and he is very polite, a promising young man, who knew that he became a parent, but he became like this, Jiang Zhimiao sighed, and felt that the world was impermanent.

She glanced at the handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks in her hand, and then at Xu Yourong, and sighed again.

Speaking of which, her mother's talent is also average, but she is persistent, she has not been idle when she has studied over the years, but the craft of their mother and daughter can only embroider a similar shape.

After years of embroidery, Jiang Zhimiao can show off the outline of a mandarin duck directly on the handkerchief without embroidering a sample, which is a subconscious behavior formed by her efforts over the years.

As soon as she got a needle, she knew where the next stitch should fall, and she embroidered it quickly, but only she knew how much she suffered back then, and the ten fingers were holes and holes, and if she thought too much, they were all tears.

"Mother, you should rest when you spend all day embroidering in the house." Jiang Zhimiao put the freshly embroidered handkerchief aside, picked up a new embroidered one, and said with concern.

Xu Yourong pretended to make money in her heart, so she naturally didn't feel tired, she smiled, and said without raising her head: "Mother is not tired, just embroider some handkerchiefs, but it is much easier than the previous rush." ”

Embroidering a handkerchief is just a waste of eyes, and the previous rush, that is a waste of life, don't say tired, careless, just afraid of life to play, compared to it, embroidering some handkerchiefs is indeed easy.

Besides, seeing that the New Year is coming, they will be able to go to the school after the New Year, reading and literacy, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, that item does not use money, there is so much money at home, and it will be gone when it is used up, she has no strengths, except for embroidery, I really can't think of any way to make money.

Jiang Zhimiao paused, sighed and said: "Mother, how can this be compared with hurrying, although this embroidery is a trivial matter, but the embroidery seen all day long, it is eye-catching and painstaking and troublesome, I think, but it is not easier than rushing." ”

Lowering his head for a long time caused soreness in the cervical spine, Xu Yourong pinched his neck, stopped the needlework in his hand, looked at her and smiled: "Silly boy, how easy is it to make money, look at your brother Mingzhu, is it easy for him to work in the town, where is he alone, I am not familiar with life, I am afraid that I am more tired than you and me." ”

"In this world, as long as you can make a living, there is no one who is not tired, or you don't have to bother, or you don't have to work hard, I don't have the strength, so I can only stay at home and do some useless work."

Jiang Zhimiao was silent, a little depressed in her heart, she lowered her eyes, and said in a low voice: "But I don't want you to do these laborious work, a handkerchief has to be embroidered for a few days, but it can only be sold for a few pennies, if the market is not good, I am afraid that the price will be reduced, you have wasted so much effort to embroider, I think it is really not worth it." ”

As she spoke, her eyes lit up, and she raised her eyes and said: "Or, after embroidering this batch of handkerchiefs, you won't embroider it first, just take advantage of this time to relax and relax, embroider at home all day, I'm afraid that the spine will be broken, I'm going to go ice fishing in a few days, and you will go too, okay, mother~"

Xu Yourong glanced at the handkerchief in her hand, only a third of the embroidery, she paused, and before she could say anything about refusal, she saw her looking at herself with a pitiful expression.

Her heart softened, she sighed helplessly, and immediately relieved: "Okay, my mother will also go with you then, but ice fishing. Can you really catch a fish? Isn't it a gimmick, if you can't catch it after half a day's effort, and there is a lot of cold wind, I'm afraid I'm going to get sick. ”

Jiang Zhimiao was overjoyed when she agreed, and said with a smile: "What kind of gimmick is not a gimmick, didn't Wen Zhuqing send a few over, they all caught it, is it possible that I can't catch it?" Don't worry, I've definitely caught more than anyone else. ”

She put down the veil, patted her chest, and said, "It's almost the New Year, and then we will make more crispy fish to eat, and it won't be bad left and right, even if we do it now, we can eat it after the year." ”

Jiang Zhimiao said with a yearning face, and Xu Yourong laughed for a while.

"Hey, I just said that I want to make crispy fish, why did I smell a smell of crispy fish." She shrugged her nose and sniffed in the direction of the scent, and said straight in her mouth, "It smells so good." ”
