Chapter 59: Departure
After Zhang Fuzi took the embroidery in the book and read it repeatedly, he was unwilling to confirm that it was double-sided embroidery.
The old lady on the side stood up and took the embroidery in her hand, and said to Mama Chen in surprise: "Look at it, this is our frost girl's embroidery, and the embroidery is really good." ”
Mama Chen also echoed and said: "The eldest lady is really hidden, I didn't expect it to scare us as soon as she made a move." ”
The old lady's expression suddenly changed: "When did the frost girl learn this hand, even I don't know, do you have to keep it secret from your grandmother?"
Xiahou Shuang looked at the old lady's face pretending to be angry, but inadvertently showing a smile, and said with a smile in her heart, she raised the corners of her lips slightly and said: "Grandmother knows about this matter, and you asked us to learn, have you forgotten it now?"
"I know?" The old lady and Mama Chen glanced at each other, Mama Chen shook her head, and the old lady said angrily: "You girl actually coaxed me again, I know there." ”
Xiahou Shuang chuckled and continued: "When Qi Fuzi was in the mansion, he once talked to his grandmother about the rarity of double-sided embroidery, and even lamented that he had no successor. ”
"At that time, I remember my grandmother and Qi Fuzi laughing and saying, as long as the master teaches carefully, my granddaughters will definitely be able to learn, Qi Fuzi just said, but after listening to my grandmother's words, I started to teach, and my granddaughter learned at that time. ”
After finishing speaking, he said playfully: "Grandmother, look, not only do you know about this, but you still let us learn it, is what I said false?"
After hearing this, the old lady thought for a while before saying, "Your reminder seems to be true." ”
Then he asked in surprise: "It's been more than a year since Qi Fuzi left the mansion, have you been practicing without stopping?"
Xiahou Shuang nodded: "What my grandmother said, my granddaughter has never forgotten, I have always practiced, so I can take out the embroidery today." ”
The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, what a good boy!"
The old lady sighed in her heart, it turned out that the frost girl was so hearted, and she had always remembered what she said casually, and she still thought that she was not close to herself, who knew that she respected herself so much in her heart.
I was really ashamed of her before, and I changed my mind again, it's not too late now, and I will definitely compensate her well in the future.
Xiahou Jing has been watching Xiahou Shuang finish the embroidery, and the shock in her heart is no less than that of Master Zhang, hearing the conversation between her and her grandmother, she remembered that Master Qi had indeed taught for a few days, but she didn't take it seriously at that time.
Qi Fuzi never practiced again after leaving. I didn't expect the eldest sister to be so diligent, and she had never been lazy to come up with such an excellent double-sided embroidery today, and she was really ashamed of herself, and she became more and more respectful in her heart.
After Xiahou Shuang finished talking to his grandmother, he said to Master Zhang, who was standing next to him, "Master believes it now, right?"
Zhang Fuzi stood aside, his face was white and red, as wonderful as opening a dye vat. Now after listening to Xiahou Shuang's question, he said ashamedly: "I questioned the eldest lady's words before, because I was short-sighted. ”
He bowed to the old lady and said, "Forgive me for my mediocre skills, I'm afraid it will be difficult to serve as the master of the lady in the house, and I also ask the old lady to invite another master." ”
The old lady had a slight complaint about Master Zhang in her heart, and when she saw that she was so knowledgeable, she also said to her: "Master is serious, these girls' skills are immature, and they still need more guidance from the master." ”
Master Zhang waved his hand again and again, and said ashamedly: "The eldest lady's embroidery skills have far surpassed mine, and it really torments me to say this, and I ask the old lady to agree to my resignation." ”
Seeing that Master Zhang was so determined, the old lady turned her head and said to Mama Chen: "Go to the account room to pay some silver, Master Zhang has also worked hard these days, send it for me." ”
Mama Chen nodded yes.
Xiahou Shuang thought that if Zhang Fuzi refused to leave, he would have to spend a lot of time, but who knew that this person was also sensible and interesting, and took the initiative to leave, but he saved a lot of trouble.
The news of Zhang's departure soon reached Lin's ears, and Lin smashed a lot of porcelain in the house, which frightened the maids and didn't dare to breathe.
When Mama Wang came back from outside, she came into the house and saw that there were debris all over the ground. distressed persuasion: "Madame, why can't you get along with yourself, if you have a good one, won't you make others happy." ”
Lin sat down on the stool panting slightly, his brows tightly knit and his hair scattered, where was there still a trace of the dignified and noble appearance of Mrs. Houfu.
Listening to Mama Wang's words, Lin covered his heart and said bitterly: "Why is she Xiahou Shuang's luck so good! ”
"This time, we finally found Master Zhang, and Xu Yizhong promised to impress her, but I didn't expect it to be in vain, what a double-sided embroidery! God doesn't have long eyes and has always stood on her side!"
Mama Wang also wondered in her heart, why is it such a coincidence every time, does this eldest lady really have the protection of the Buddha?
At the moment, he comforted: "Madame, don't think about it too much, this matter is also blamed on Master Zhang for being too hasty and rash, but I didn't expect to end up with inferior skills." ”
Lin calmed down a little, and then asked: "This matter must not be let Yan'er know, I was expecting Master Zhang to clean up Xiahou Shuang and pick out her mistakes, but she couldn't get out of the house because she hurt her hand." ”
"I didn't expect Master Zhang to lift a stone and hit himself in the foot, but let himself lose this errand, which is really useless. ”
If Yan'er knew that Xiahou Shuang was fine, she would be able to go out of the house to attend the queen's banquet, and she would have to have another fuss.
It's just that the Lin family never thought that Xiahou Yan already knew about it.
Xiahou Yan was detained by the Lin family and was not allowed to get out of bed, but it was impossible to lie on the bed every day, and occasionally got up and sat in the room for a while.
Today, the sky was clear, and Xiahou Yan asked people to help themselves to sit under the window.
I heard that there was a maid whispering outside, and I only heard the eldest lady vaguely, embroidering a few words on both sides.
Xiahou Yan said to Hongxiu: "Go, call the maid outside in and ask what's going on?"
After the two maids entered the house, their faces turned pale with fright, and it was strictly forbidden for the maids and wives to talk about the master behind their backs, and the violators were beaten twenty boards and expelled from the house.
The two didn't expect the third lady to sit by the window today and listen to the conversation between the two.
When I met the third lady and asked, I had to tremble and tell the news I had heard, and after I finished speaking, I couldn't stop kowtowing and begging for mercy, and next time I didn't dare to talk about the master behind my back.
Xiahou Yan was bored in her heart, and with a wave of her hand, she let the red embroidery take people down.
