The embroidery room is very spacious, and there are two embroidery girls in it. "Sister-in-law Lin, sister-in-law Guo, this is the new maid Bailu. The two embroiderers stood up slightly and saluted. After Bai Lu returned the salute, they didn't say much to continue their work, and they seemed to be honest and responsible people.

"Sister Bailu, what kind of needlework do you know?" asked Ying'er.

"A little, not a lot. "Bai Lu used to do all kinds of work for resources when she was doing casual cultivation, and she used to be an embroiderer in Tianyi Pavilion. The embroiderer of the cultivation world is to embroider the magic circle on the refined clothes, and also take into account the appearance of the clothes. Everyone has a love for beauty, and the female cultivators in the cultivation world are not excluded, but also the cultivation world is rich in products, there are many inheritance schools, and the aesthetic style is very different, and Bai Lu's craftsmanship can be valued by the most powerful Tianyi Pavilion at that time because the clothes she makes not only have good defensive power, but also are beautiful, so that the female immortals in the cultivation world at that time flocked to it. And Bai Lu relied on this skill to be able to have enough resources for her to cultivate to the Jindan stage with such an ordinary qualification as the Three Spirit Roots.

I want to come to this world, even if I can't become a top embroiderer, it can't be bad, but I am a poor man's skill is too good, but I can't say it, or take my time, this embroidery room seems to be relatively small, and you can stay here until you have the ability to live out of the house.

Ying'er saw that although her hands looked quite white, they were a little rough, and she had done a lot of rough work when she wanted to come to home, "Working in our place, this hand must be cared for, otherwise the good material will fall off, and you can't use it anymore, you just come and learn to tie the rope first." Will you be able to play the rope?"

"There won't be many of them. "Bai Lu is a little embarrassed, there are really few people in the cultivation world, and they are generally only used with swords, so Bai Lu will have two or three kinds of them.

"Then you should learn from the Guo family's sister-in-law today. ”

"Sister-in-law Guo, this Sister Bailu will trouble you to teach, I still have Miss's clothes to do, and I don't have time. We are short of people, and we are making up for it, and we are more relaxed. Ying'er turned to the older woman and said. The woman had a disc face, a white complexion, especially the thin and pointed hands, which were white and tender.

"Miss Ying'er just go and get busy, don't get in the way. I'm too late for someone to help!"

Ying'er saw that Sister-in-law Guo was not dissatisfied, so she put her mind at ease, nodded to Bai Lu and entered the inner room. Sister-in-law Guo saw Bai Lu looking at the inner room and said: "Miss Ying'er is usually a partner inside, and there are a lot of fabrics worth a thousand gold in it, which are prepared by Mrs. and Master for our young lady, and most people have never even heard of it, so we can't go in without orders." Bai Lu nodded slightly, indicating that she would not go in at will.

Sister-in-law Guo saw that Bai Lu was a gentle and gentle person, and she was willing to mention her more, after all, there would always be a good-looking girl in the mansion.

The slightly younger sister-in-law Lin is estimated to be the bride who has just gotten married, with some bride's shy joy on her face, dressed very festively, wearing a pink skirt, although her appearance is not outstanding, but she looks beautiful. She took some five-colored embroidery thread and handed it to Bai Lu and said, "Sister Bai Lu, I don't know what you know, why don't you beat some of your skills first, and I will teach you the rest with Sister-in-law Guo?"

Seeing that Bai Lu nodded, Sister-in-law Guo led her to the window seat, and saw that Bai Lu was a little handy, but she kept obediently making a rope in her hand, so she let go of her hand and left her alone. Although they don't make young ladies' coats, they also have to make some homely clothes, purses, handkerchiefs and so on. The embroidery work is very laborious and laborious, that is, a person only makes a set of young lady's clothes in a month, and it is still the result of the two of them with fast hands and feet, and the embroidery work is the result of the top-notch level in the house. Now the coat in Ying'er's hand is still ready to be worn when the young lady goes out of the filial piety mansion for the first banquet, and she can't be delayed.

The eldest master of the Xue Mansion died of illness a few years ago, and the hearts of the people in the Xue Mansion were shaken all of a sudden, but the second master was separated early because he was a concubine. Although the second master is good, he can only protect a little in business, and he does not dare to take over the management of the Xue Mansion's industry. I'm afraid that the melon field Li Xia was said to bully orphans and widows, but the eldest young master is a gentleman who does not learn and has no skills, although the young lady is stronger than the average man, but it is always a boudoir woman who can't show her head, Mrs. is from the Wang family, one of the four major families, but because she is only a concubine, her character has always been compassionate and soft, and she doesn't know how much silver she coaxed out by the people below. This filial piety banquet invited all the friends of the old man when he was alive, and I hope to see the old man's past feelings to protect one or two. Therefore, the dressing of the young lady's clothes and head and face is particularly important, so as not to make other families think that the master is not in the Xue family and start to be lonely, so I hope that the young lady can make a good impression and make a good family, and the eldest young master will have a competent in-law in the future. These thoughts also turned around in Guo's sister-in-law's mind, her man is Guo Derong, the second housekeeper in the house, Guo's sister-in-law has a somewhat impulsive personality, and it is often easy to get married, and the second housekeeper Guo often tells her about some things in the house, and after slowly gaining some knowledge, Guo's sister-in-law has also learned to think twice before acting, and her popularity in the house is not bad.

Jinling has been rainy for several days, and Baochai is lying on the bed at night with a recurrence of the old disease. A rich and compelling woman, Mrs. Xue, sat on the edge of the bed and spoke to her softly.

"Hai'er, after a few days, the medicine your brother gave you will be almost there, I hope the prescription given by the monk will be of some use. Let my son not suffer any more. ”

"Mother, it's out of the way. I'm used to it. Baochai's pale little face was slightly yellow, her eyes were red, and her lips were pale.

When Mrs. Xue saw that she was depressed, she told her about going to the capital. Since the death of the master, the family's years are not as good as a year, although the business of the imperial merchant is still there, but Pan'er is a casual one, and has no choice but to collect the family property and go to Beijing to seek refuge. In the past few years, she has slowly disposed of some marginal industries, and the rest are also guarded by loyal servants who have accumulated years, although the income is not as much as when the master was alive in previous years, but there is still a slight surplus. In a few days, it will be the day of the filial piety banquet to invite guests, and I hope that those big families will take more care of the business for the sake of the lord and their own mother's sake.

"Hai'er, in two months, when the weather warms up, we will leave for the capital. I have the best relationship with your third aunt, and your uncle has been highly valued by the saint in the past few years, but we have to make a good plan to go to Beijing again. Look at Baochai listened carefully, and said: "My son is dignified, well-read, well-read, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all fine, I heard that the saint intends to choose a waiter for the princess, although my family is an imperial businessman, your father is graded, just qualified, I have entrusted your uncle to report for you, my son will definitely be selected into the palace, after coming out, I think it is no worse than the daughters of those noble families." ”

Baochai is nearly nine years old, and has been taught by his father since he was a child, and he has his own furrow in his chest. She knows that everyone in the world despises merchants, although her family is an imperial businessman, but she can't get rid of the family's opinion. In the past, when I interacted with the ladies of various families, I also suffered a lot of idleness because of the identity of the daughter of the merchant, although her family's food and clothing were better than the princesses in the palace, after all, a lot of the money in the palace was provided by her own family, and some good private interceptions were nothing for personal use, but in the end the identity was not as good. When I heard about the things in the palace, I already had thoughts in my heart. It's just that I'm still sick and can't think about it.

"Mom, what kind of character am I, there are so many ladies in Beijing, how do you know that there is no outstanding, don't say it" Baochai slowed down and continued: "Now that my father is gone, only our orphans and widows are left, if I can go further and help the family, I will be willing to do anything." It's just that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky, how do you know that there is no more outstanding lady, after all, from the perspective of family background, I lost first. “

"It's all bad for my mother, don't be sad, your health is not good, and you will say something that makes you feel more hearted. Hey, you, just recuperate. Although the mother is not more capable and shrewd than your father, she is also an adult, so you are not allowed to worry too much. And the hairpin is not allowed to be presumptuous, looking at the ladies of Jinling, there is no one who can compare to my hairpin. I'm going to see your brother, I don't know where I'm going to go crazy again, but I'm going to have to find someone to call him back. Mrs. Xue was just about to leave, but after thinking about it, she said, "Where is the maid sent yesterday now?"

"The daughter handed over the person to Mama. Baochai replied: "Does that maid have a background?"

"No, that maid was bought by your brother on the street, and you also know your brother's temperament, there are so many maids in the yard. When I saw that she was clever and docile, and that she was good-looking, I gave it to you. This time in Beijing, you still lack a few maids, and they are all older, so you have to make up for a few, so as not to lose everyone's pomp and circumstance. ”

"Then let your grandmother teach the rules first, and if it's a good one, stay it. In a few days, Mom will look for a few better ones for you. ”

Bai Lu didn't know that he hadn't been approved by the master's family, and he was still weaving those lines. Sister-in-law Guo saw that Bai Lu was quiet, very responsible, and she also loved it in her heart. Miss's embroidery room is less people and has a face, Mrs. Miss also has a reward from time to time, and the seat here is also a fragrant dumpling that everyone wants to come, she came in with the identity of her husband, but she didn't want to come in and ruin her life.

Sister-in-law Guo walked over and saw the very delicate weaves, and said in surprise: "This is what you made up? I have never seen this pattern, it looks so tight, is this what you think of yourself?"

"No, I have been wandering with my parents since I was a child, and I have traveled a lot, and I don't know where I learned. "Bai Lu has always answered questions, when she was a monk before

Although he is not disdainful of mortals, he also pays little attention to them, and this time he actually has to serve mortals, and he is also a little aggrieved in his heart. Although I lived a very hard life when I was in the cultivation world, I don't know how much calculations I had to make clothes to get a comfortable life and cultivation resources. However, she is just an embroidery girl, barely enough to support the cost of her Jindan period, but Bai Lu is really comfortable with those monks who seek breakthroughs in life and death, break into secret realms, and fight demon beasts outside, so her personality is very gentle and harmless, which is both beneficial and harmful to a cultivator.

There are not many demons in the heart when Li is promoted, but people with such a temperament are generally unable to cultivate the world for a long time, not to mention that the cultivation world itself is full of dangers, and the resources of chance depend on snatching and strength, and if you don't have enough experience, you can't improve your state of mind, so you naturally can't advance.

And Bai Lu's lifeless secret realm expedition was because she was stuck in the middle of Jindan for too long to advance, so she put her mind on the secret realm she had just discovered, and generally only these newly discovered secret realms were allowed to enter by the cultivators. These secret realms have never been explored, rich in resources, unknown dangers, and some ancient inheritances are unknown. In order to be able to get enough resources to advance, Bai Lu made up his mind to give it a go, but Bai Lu had less experience, and even if he made all the preparations, he still lost his life.

Fortunately, he came back to life again, Bai Lu smiled with relief. Stay here for a few years, and after you build your own foundation, you can travel to this world, I don't know if there are any immortal cultivation sects here, and when you are familiar with it, you have to explore it carefully.
