Concubine Raiders Chapter 4: Jiaoyuan
Wu Niang, Eleven Niang, and Wu Xiao’s family filed out.
Everyone stood at the door, as if their mood became relaxed, and the expressions on their faces softened a lot.
Wu Xiao’s family smiled and asked the two sisters: “I’ll go to our house and get the size and style of the screen. I just don’t know where to find the two young ladies later?”
To make a Baishou embroidery screen, first determine the appearance and size of the embroidery screen, and then Wuniang writes the words to be embroidered according to the size of the embroidery screen. Elevenniang selects the screen fabric and silk thread, and then You can substitute needles for writing, and start embroidering the screen according to the direction of the cloth's warp and weft according to the font written by Wu Niang.
So, it was Wu Xiao's family and Wu Niang's business at first.
11 Niang is naturally inconvenient to intervene.
She looked at Wu Niang with a smile.
Wu Niang knows that I have been in front of the eldest wife for two days. If there is nothing to give to the Eleven Niang after two days, if the Eleven Niang can’t get anything by then, it’s all self. Responsibility.
This time, it’s not the time to be polite.
"If my sister doesn't dislike it, it's better to go and sit with me!" She smiled at Eleven Mother, "I'm closer to my mother, so I can talk to my mother later."
Wu Niang lives in Jiaoyuan to the west of the main house, and can't use a cup of tea.
"Sister is still thoughtful." Eleven Niang smiled, "Then bother sister!"
"My sister, why bother to be so polite? It's unfamiliar." Wu Niang smiled, "You stay in the house every day to do needlework. You don't move anywhere except for the wife. I can't ask for it. Dear guest, I wish you would come and disturb me every day."
Eleven mothers listened and smiled: "Then I won't be polite to my sister!"
Wu Xiao’s family also strongly agrees with Wu Niang’s decision: "In that case, I will go to Miss Wu’s Jiaoyuan to reply later."
Wu Niang and Eleven Niang nod their heads: "It's such a cold day, it's hard work for mom!"
"What did the lady say. This is my duty!" Wu Xiao's family said politely, and turned to find their own family.
Eleven mothers ordered Binju to the side: "Go and talk to Dongqing. Sister Amber next to my mother will come to our house as a errand from now on. Let her ask someone to help Sister Amber take a break. And then go to my mother to greet us-see if there is anything from Sister Humber that can help. I will also go to Wu Jie and wait for Ms. Wu’s screen. Once you have heard the word, go to Wu Miss. Find me!"
Ever since I knew that Mrs. Amber had pulled Amber to the Eleven Mother, it was not a good feeling for Binju to grasp the liver and lungs in his heart, wishing to fly back to Luyunlou to discuss with Dongqing what to do. Now Miss Eleven asked her to go back to give Dongqing a letter, which hit her right. She respectfully answered "yes" and hurried away.
Wuniang glanced at Bin Ju’s back, and smiled: "My sister is really kind to others!"
"After all, I am someone who has served my mother." Xi Niang smiled mildly, "When I came to me, I was wronged. We can no longer treat others better. I am afraid that Sister Amber will feel wronged, and the mother's kindness was in vain. !"
Wu Niang glanced at her deeply, and smiled and led her to Jiaoyuan.
Jiaoyuan lives on the west side of the main building of Zhiyun Hall. It has three rooms and two entrances. There is a patio in the middle. Several banana trees are higher than the house. It was originally called Jiaoyuan. Later, it became the residence of the eldest lady Luo Yuanniang. The eldest lady thought this name was not good, and "Jiao" was the same as "Jiao", so she changed her name to "Jiaoyuan". After Yuanniang married, the eldest wife placed Wuniang there. In order to respect this elder sister, Wu Niang left the second small building where Yuan Niang lived, and let people clean it day and night as if Yuan Niang was at home. I moved into the small building I entered first, and used the middle as a place for daily living and banquets, a study room on the east side, and a room for the little maid and wife on the west side. I live on the second floor with two maids, Ziyuan and Ziwei.
entered the door, and Ziwei greeted her with two little maids.
Seeing each other, Wu Niang and Eleven Niang sit down in the main order, the little maids served tea, and the crape myrtle filled a crystal plate with yellow phoenix oranges: "Ms. Eleven gave a taste Taste."
"Stupid girl," Wu Niang glanced at Eleven Niang, "My wife rewarded me, so naturally she also rewarded Eleven Niang. It takes you to show your hospitality."
Ziwei pursed his lips and smiled: "Miss Eleven has it, it belongs to Miss Eleven, this is our mind."
Eleven Niang smiled and took an orange and peeled it in her hand: "There are many people in my place, and a few phoenix oranges are like ginseng fruit, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye. I was so panicked, sister Ziwei took it. The plate comes out. It's like a person who owes sleep meets a pillow. This is a good dedication!"
Her fingers are long and slender, and they are as pale as green. The golden orange peel flew between his fingers, and there was a gorgeousness like a rosy cloud.
Wu Niang's gaze fell on Eleven Niang's face.
The hair is like crow green, the skin is in the first snow, the eyes are like autumn water, and the lips are crimson...When did the eleven mothers grow so beautiful!
She was in a trance.
Eleven Niang’s gentle and soothing voice sounded in her ear: "A hundred words for'shou', how can I write it? I want to write a big'shou' in the middle, and then write ninety on the back What about the nine small "shou" characters? Or do I plan to line up ten "shou" characters in each vertical and horizontal direction? I think about it and think these two patterns are good. I don't know which sister thinks which is better? But what I can't think of A good idea?"
Wu Niang was shocked and recovered.
, how beautiful is it? If you can't marry a good family, you can throw people away in time, I'm afraid it will be another situation, which will make people funny. If I want to marry well, then my wife nodded...
she smiled and got up: "Sister, come with me."
Wuniang’s study room is very spacious, but there are only two pieces of furniture in the room-one is a large black painting case near the window. On the case, a stack of celebrity stickers were neatly stacked, and four or five inkstones were placed. There was a sea of azure old kiln brushes. There were no fewer than ten pens of different thicknesses. The second is a black lacquered chaise couch against the wall, paved with old and new autumn color moire brocade cushions. It was unavoidable to look a little deserted.
Eleven Niang rubbed her hands: "My sister doesn't raise a brazier? What should I do when practicing calligraphy? I can't. If I want to embroider, I have to raise the brazier." She said, she laughed. "However, the place I live is only the size of my sister’s study, and there are often maids and wives who ask me to help with needlework. They just don’t raise the brazier, they huddle together for work, and it’s not cold."
Wu Niang knows that Eleven Niang is good at embroidering, and all the maids and wives at home like to look for her, or help embroider something, or give guidance to embroidery workers. After hearing the jokes, he said: "My place is comparable to yours!"
Xi Niang smiled embarrassedly. Pointed to the pen with the thickest barrel in the pen sea: "When did my elder sister start to write big characters? I remember my elder sister likes writing hairpin lower case letters the most."
Wu Niang smiled and said, "My sister and I wanted to go together-I want to write a big "Shou" in cursive in the middle, and then write ninety-nine smaller "Shou" in lower case with hairpins on the side. ……"
11 Niang could not help being surprised.
Wu Niang’s saying this is equivalent to suggesting that Eleven Niang, she has long known what birthday gift the eldest wife would give to Mrs. Hou Yongping... How did she know so early, not the eldest wife said it, or she knew it early Someone with the eldest wife confided to her. If it is the former, it means that she is more popular with the elder wife than Eleven. The eldest wife not only tells her her plan, but also asks her to prepare in advance, so as not to lose face in her hands when things happen; if it is the latter , It shows that she has an extraordinary relationship with a lot of decent maids and mothers, which is not comparable to that of Eleven!
Whatever it is, this expression is a naked demonstration!
Before Wu Niang finished speaking, there was a regretful expression on her face, as if she regretted what she had just said, and anxiously said: "You know me, I usually like calligraphy, and I like to think about it when I'm fine... "
there is quite a taste of no silver three hundred taels here.
Eleven Niang nodded her head with a smile: "My sister is always smart, which is beyond me."
is not as bitter or sad as Wu Niang predicted.
doesn't seem to have any doubt about Wu Niang who "likes to ponder this when I'm fine".
Wu Niang could not help being discouraged.
I always talk to her like this, like a punch on the cotton flower, without any sense of accomplishment. Unlike Shi Niang, her eyes are full of anger but she dare not attack...
She found it very boring, and showed her a few drafts she wrote before to Eleven Mother: "...This is the one we all mentioned in ~IndoMTL.com~, with ninety-nine characters next to it. Xiaoshou Character...This one is written in a diamond shape, with lower case letters in the middle and official script for the diamond edge...This one is written in a circle, all in lower case..."
The two were talking, Shion brought the brocade to the eleven mother.
The eleven mother just sat down when Wu Xiao's family came.
Ziwei and Ziyuan are busy. The refreshment on the table, the brocade on the side. It took a while for the three to sit down and talk.
"This is the one painted according to the intention of the old lady." Wu Xiao's family took a piece of kraft paper and showed Wu Niang, "The base is carved out of boxwood, and the frame is made of chicken wing wood..."
"Why not use yellow pear wood." Wu Niang interrupted Wu Xiao's family, "Since boxwood is used for the base, I'm afraid it's not good to use wenge wood for the frame?"
boxwood is yellowish in color, wenge is dark red in color.
"Who said no." Wu Xiao's family was also a maidservant next to his wife. They read and wrote, but they still have a basic level of appreciation. "I have tried other ideas. One is to replace the base with chicken wings. Red sandalwood of the same wood color. It’s just that pinewood is hard to find now, let alone red sandalwood. This method is definitely not working. The second is to replace the base with wenge wood, so that the frame and the base material are the same, which is the best. We The mouth of the family just happened to have an impression, saying that there seemed to be something that could be used at home. When I went to the warehouse to collect it, I learned that the last time the Zhejiang Provincial Police ordered the mother of Huang Daren to celebrate her birthday, the uncle asked people to make a birthday gift. My wife was very anxious about the decision. There was no one on the market for a while. She left a letter with a few familiar timber producers, but she has not replied so far."
Wu Niang frowned upon hearing this: "Who made this? It's not too particular! Does mother know?"
