Chapter 55: Come Out
The next morning, before Tao Yao woke up, Wu Yan had already gotten up and prepared breakfast, and held it with a bowl to avoid getting cold. Then, as before, he prepared a face wash for Tao Yao.
Tao Yao got up to wash, only to see Wu Yan change into a new dress.
Wu Yan fled to the Purple Silk Pavilion with nothing, and she didn't have a change of clothes after she came, because she was about the same size as Tao Yao, so Tao Yao took out a few of her old clothes that she didn't wear and gave them to her.
Wu Yan only wears a plain white washed yellow dress on weekdays, and the clothes next to her are too gorgeous, she is still mourning her grandmother, so she picks up plain clothes to wear, and the other Taoyao's clothes are all young lady's clothes, which don't look like those worn by maids.
And today, Wu Yan picked out a clear water blue dress, which was still plain, but it made the whole person look a lot more energetic, and it was prepared for following Tao Yao to the embroidery pavilion today.
Tao Yao looked at her while washing, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's pretty good." ”
Wu Yan said: "Girl, in two days, I will give the girl silver, can the girl buy me two clothes worn by the maid, your clothes I wear too differently." ”
After Tao Yao finished washing, she was wiping her face with a handkerchief: "I don't need you to give me silver, you make me a maid, I should have bought clothes for you, but I was negligent, and when I take a break next time, I will go out and buy it for you." ”
Wu Yan didn't be too polite to Tao Yao, but only thanked Tao Yao happily.
There was not so much effort in the morning, one person ate and then another, Tao Yao pulled her to finish breakfast, Wu Yan pushed open the door for the first time, and followed Tao Yao to the embroidery pavilion on the side.
Wu Yan's heart is still a little apprehensive, from the day before yesterday to learn embroidery in the embroidery pavilion, now when he comes in, it is like a different world, quite a sense of things and people.
Everyone looked at Wu Yan who came in with Tao Yao, and they were all surprised, and several young ladies pointed at her and whispered.
"How did she get out?"
"Finally willing to go out?"
Wu Yan didn't hear it, only stared at Tao Yao, and took a deep breath.
Tao Yao sat in front of her embroidery stand, and there were still half of the embroideries embroidered the day before, and the maids of each family could only stand aside. Because Master Liu's embroidery teaching is only two quarters of an hour, the rest of the time is for everyone to practice by themselves, Master Liu goes back and forth to inspect, if there is not, you can ask her, but it is only half an hour of effort, Master Liu is not here to accompany him, leaving only the ladies of each family to make embroidery by themselves.
But after this day, there are always two or three hours to spend here, and the maids don't want to stand here for a day, so if it weren't for the request of their own young lady, the maids of each family would be happy to chat in the ear room.
Zheng Qiaoyan's little maid Honghuan has always followed her to stand aside and serve the needlework and tea, serving back and forth, very thoughtful.
Tao Yao pointed to a small embroidered pier on the side and said to Wu Yan: "You sit here." ”
Wu Yan shook her head: "It's okay girl, I don't have to sit." ”
Tao Yao said in a low voice: "Standing here for a day, carefully my legs hurt." ”
Wu Yan smiled and whispered to Tao Yao: "Then wait for me to sit down when I'm tired for a while." ”
Tao Yao also smiled when she heard this, and said, "Okay." ”
As he was talking, Liu Yunjin came in, looked at Wu Yan who was standing beside Tao Yao, and was also surprised for a moment, but he didn't say anything, and the next moment he looked away, and said to a room of apprentices: "Today, we learn Najin, which is often called poke yarn embroidery." Take off yesterday's Rob from the embroidery stand, and the remaining half, go back to embroider it, and hand it in to me before the end of the month. Put on a silk. ”
Liu Yunjin commanded, and the ladies below began to dismantle and change the cloth.
With Wu Yan helping Tao Yao, everything is really much easier, and Zheng Qiaoyan on the side has to just drink tea with a teacup as always.
After changing the yarn silk, Liu Yunjin began to teach the yarn embroidery carefully: "This yarn embroidery, as the name suggests, is to embroider according to the number of grids on the silk yarn."
There can be many variations of the pattern of stamp yarn embroidery, such as the bald pattern and the osmanthus pattern. Today, I will teach you the Badou pattern. The needle should be started at the first eye at the edge of the pattern, and the needle should be dropped across the seven eyes, and the second needle should be placed side by side with it. The third and fourth needles and the first and second needles are uneven by three eyes. The fifth and sixth needles are the same as the first and second needles, and so on. To the narrowing of the pattern, the line can be shortened according to the needs of the pattern, but the hollow eyes between the patterns must be aligned. When embroidering, the embroidery thread should be loosened, the yarn eye should be clear, and the yarn eye should not be blocked. ”
Liu Yunjin installed a grid made of hemp rope on the big embroidery frame in front of him, and said with a big needle the thickness of his thumb on one side, and embroidered it for everyone to see, and everyone held their breath and learned to remember.
After Liu Yunjin finished speaking, he began to let everyone count their eyes on the silk yarn first, drop the needle, and learn to embroider the Ba Dou pattern first, but this embroidery method is very laborious and eye-catching, looking at the small yarn eyes, and the eyes are tired after a while.
Tao Yao tilted her head and asked Wu Yan: "Why does this picture look a little strange when I embroider it." ”
Wu Yan smiled and stepped forward and bowed and pointed, "There is a box missing here." ”
Tao Yao covered her eyes and supported her forehead: "It's really terrible, you can't be blind after this study." ”
Wu Yan just smiled and didn't say much, stepped forward to help Tao Yao dismantle the three newly embroidered stitches, re-lead the thread from the wrong place, and embroidered three or four stitches herself: "Girl, look, that's right." ”
Tao Yao smiled and said, "Don't stand, sit down and help me embroider." ”
Wu Yan is also itchy, she just learned it, and she also wanted to try embroidering two stitches, but she didn't dare, so she only said to Tao Yao: "Girl, practice for a while, and I'll help you embroider when Master Liu leaves." ”
Tao Yao smiled at her, lowered her head and continued to do needlework, Liu Yunjin passed by, glanced at the embroidery under Tao Yao's hand, and then glanced at Wu Yan standing behind her, the little movements of the two girls did not escape her eyes, just looking at the two of them, she also had a loving smile on her face.
When Liu Yunjin left, Tao Yao hurriedly pulled Wu Yan to sit down and do needlework for herself, if it weren't for Wu Yan carefully bowing her head to help watch, she had already embroidered several wrong stitches, and she would have to dismantle and reembroider a large piece.
Wu Yan didn't shirk either, handed Tao Yao tea for her to drink and rest, and sat on the small embroidery pier on the side, took Tao Yao's needle and thread, and embroidered the pattern behind her for her.
Tao Yao drank tea leisurely and looked at it, and sighed in her heart, this is the day she wants, with Wu Yan to help her do needlework, as well as those heavy needlework that she didn't finish in class, she can help her do it, wouldn't she have a lot of time to rest.
Tao Yao was thinking about what was wrong, and Wu Yan on the side suddenly stopped what she was doing and said to Tao Yao: "Girl, I'll go to the small kitchen to see the dishes." ”
"Huh?" Tao Yao was stunned, looking at the embroidery work that had not yet been done, "It doesn't matter if the dishes are cooked, you can practice again." ”
Wu Yan didn't know Tao Yao's thoughts, covered her mouth and smiled: "If the dishes are late, you won't be able to pick a good one, don't worry about the girl, I picked the dishes that the girl likes to eat, and then come back to help the girl make them." ”
The smile on the corner of Tao Yao's mouth is almost to the root of her ears, not to mention how happy she is in her heart.
