Concubine Raiders Chapter 3: Mother


   Seeing her aunt's question, Eleven Niang stood up and respectfully responded with a "yes", saying: "I just learned some fur."

Mrs.    saw her respectfully and nodded invisibly.

  "April 24 is the birthday of Mrs. Houfu of Yongping. I will ask your fifth sister to write a hundred'shou' characters in different fonts. Then you can embroider a screen with'double-sided embroidery'. , Take Yanjing to make a birthday gift for Mrs. Tai."

  Luo Yuanniang, the eldest of the Luo family, married Hou Xu Lingyi, Yongping.

   The wife of the Yongping Houfu, that is, Luo Yuanniang's mother-in-law, the eldest wife's in-laws.

   Xu's family member died young, the second son died of illness, and the third son was born. The title was unexpectedly inherited by the fourth son Xu Lingyi. With Xu Lingyi’s sister being canonized as a queen by the new emperor two years ago, the Xu family became a hot and meritorious family in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the status of Luo Yuanniang, the wife of Yongpinghou, has also risen, whether it is in the circle of noble ladies in Yanjing or The Luo family, far in the south of the Yangtze River, has become very important. And the birthday gift of the wife of the wife naturally became the first major event that required her to rack her brains to undertake.

  Knowing the importance of the matter, Eleven Niang could not help but hesitate to say: "Although my daughter can embroider double-sided embroidery, but her skills are not good. Yanjing hides the dragon and the tiger, I am afraid that she will lose the face of the older sister..."

   Before she could finish her words, the eldest wife laughed and said, "If you want to talk about superb skills, who can compare to the people at the Gongli Needlework Bureau? We send a'Baishou embroidery screen' to the past, but it is Show your heart."

   also. No matter how good his craft is, it is no better than those embroidered women who were selected from all over the country to learn for survival; the things sent by the Luo family are no more valuable than the emperor's reward.

  11 Niang relieved, smiled and asked the elder wife: "I don't know what good day my mother chose to send someone to Yanjing to give her birthday gift?"

   "The sixth day of March." The old lady smiled, "I read the almanac. When I was six years old, I should avoid opening a position and making friends. It is better to travel and meet friends. No matter how early, there is no such good day, no matter how late, for fear of delays on the road ."

   Xi Niang thought a little, and his face showed hesitation.

Mrs.    looked at and asked with concern, "Is there a problem?"

   Eleven Niang hesitated: "This double-sided embroidery is no more than single-sided embroidery. It takes three times as much effort than single-sided embroidery... I think the days are a bit tight!"

   "How can this be good?" Mrs. frowned, "I thought about this good idea for more than half a month. In this way, wouldn't I have to re-select the birthday gift? I don't know if it will be too late. Even if it's late, what to send is worrying!"

  The roots are there for generations of officials in the Luo family. Even if there are no rare things, it's not difficult to find something auspicious for birthday gifts, right? Or, what is special about the birthday of Mrs. Ping’an Houfu...

  Eleven Niang thought, raised her eyelid and quickly glanced at Wu Niang.

   She held the tea cup and sat beside the big lady, watching her nose and heart, and turning a blind eye to what she said.

  Eleven mothers couldn't help but move in her heart.

It is not easy for Mrs.    to embroider a hundred "shou" characters with double-sided embroidery, but it is equally difficult for Wu Niang to write a hundred "shou" characters with different fonts. With such a difficult problem ahead, Wu Niang, who has always been exquisite, suddenly became silent.

   She thought again that Mrs. Wu had walked in with the help of Wu Niang.

   From this point of view, Wu Niang either didn’t feel embarrassed, and readily responded; or, although embarrassed, it was more difficult to embroider a hundred "shou" than to write a hundred "shou", etc. Reject yourself. In this way, the big lady would only count the reasons for the failure of this matter to herself.

   No matter what the situation is, the current situation cannot allow her to refuse.

   Besides, she didn't mean to reject the big lady at all.

   is just that I don’t want to be as refreshing as I promised, making the old lady think embroidering a hundred "shou" characters is a very simple thing, so she ignores her hard work...

The idea of ​​   is a flash.

  She has already pondered: "Or, let Master Jian help..."

   "How can it work!" Before Eleven Niang finished speaking, the old lady immediately denied her proposal, "This Baishou embroidery screen was originally given to show our Luo family's sincerity and let others embroider. What's the point?"

  Eleven Niang heard her face flushed, and muttered: "It's the daughter who is wrong! Mother, don't blame it."

  Mrs. sighed as she listened.

   Eleven Niang looked upset, and hurriedly said: "Or, let my daughter try..."

Mrs.   's eyes lit up: "How sure are you?"

   Eleven Niang Shen Ning for a while, whispered: "I will get up early and go to bed at night, and then let Holly help to divide the line and thread the needle...I can always do it faster." Not very sure.

  Mrs. Big thought for a long time without comment.

   Xi Niang looked a little depressed.

   Wu Niang said with a smile: "I also get up early and go to bed late, and I have written one hundred'shou' characters in two days. I don't know if the eleventh sister will be more certain."

   Eleven Niang lifted her spirits and said with a smile: "I originally thought that the fifth sister would be more than half a month old. If it only takes two days, it will naturally be able to catch it."

   She actually made up her mind to trace the word "Shou" written by Wu Niang twice, and let Master Jian find someone to embroider one pair, and embroider one by herself. Whoever embroiders it first will give it to him. In case Mrs. Da is suspicious, she insists on not letting go, is she still looking for someone to confront her? Even if she is confronted, Master Jian can still speak up?

Mrs.    listened to her and became happy: "In that case, your sisters will work together to complete this Baishou embroidery screen. It will also make your eldest sister a long face. Let the people of Yanjing see our Luo family daughter not only Know the present and ancient conditions, and obey the courtesy of sages."

  The family motto written by the ancestor Ji Gong of the Luo family to the Luo's daughter was handed down. Before Luo's female literacy, read "Ji Gong and Women Training", then "Female Commandments" and "Internal Training". These two sentences are the content of the family motto. But the eldest wife used it at this time and this kind of place, how awkward she would listen to her!

   But who would be an idiot to question the old lady?

  11niang and Wuniang stood up and squatted to bow to the eldest wife, and respectfully responded with a "yes".

  Mrs. is satisfied with their attitude, and nodded slightly. As if thinking of something, I asked my wife Wu Xiao and her family around me: "I remember, the nanny in the eleven mother's house stayed in Fujian..."

   Wu Xiao’s family hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "At that time, Miss Eleven’s nanny was unwilling to leave her hometown, so she didn’t follow."

   "Yeah!" The eldest lady slightly chin her head, "Then pull Amber into Miss Eleven's room and give her..."

  Eleven mothers are stunned.

   Pull Amber into his room, what about Holly?

   Did Mama Yao really tell the eldest wife to ration Holly to her nephew, so the eldest wife pulled Amber over to let each other know and be familiar with each other, so that she won’t be in the house when she mates Holly out It's a mess.

  Thinking of this, Eleven Niang was overwhelmed in her heart, and she felt faintly resentful.

   After three years of business, she finally developed a relationship with the people around her, so that they can act according to their own wishes, but the eldest wife suddenly put her maid by her side... This is like On the side of the couch, there is someone snoring, even if it is not malicious, it is disturbing.

   But she didn't dare to show a bit on her face, she didn't dare to hesitate for a moment. An expression of trepidation: "Mother, how can this be done? Sister Humber is powerful by your side. Give it to me, what do you do?"

Mrs.   smiled and waved her hand, motioning her not to say more.

   "The lady in our house, the people who serve by her side are all custom-made." She said to the maid and daughter-in-law next to her sternly, "They are all equipped with two big maids, two little maids, and a nanny. Two rude daughter-in-laws. Now the nanny of Eleven Niang stays in Fujian, I will add another maid to her and fill in the missing nanny... it is not illegal."

  People around me either said, "What the big lady said," or "Zhou Xiang considered by the big lady". Then Wu Xiao’s family laughed even more: “According to the truth, the eldest lady should have filled the gap in Miss Eleven’s house too early. I just talked about it now, and I don’t know if I wanted to save several years of monthly bills. Still really didn't expect it?"

   Everyone laughed.

  Mrs. also laughed.

   The chief manager of Wu Hyo Jeon’s family, the Xu family’s family gave birth to children, and the wife’s companion room.

   To these people, she has always been very tolerant!

   Everyone laughed for a while, and the eldest wife looked at Eleven Mother: "As for the holly in your house..." She paused.

   Perhaps because of Kohaku's arrival, she was completely awake, knowing that the castle she had built with all her strength was in front of the lady, no, or how weak it was in the hands of the superior. She has always been able to calm down and suddenly became impetuous. The short stay made her sweat all over her back suddenly, and her heart throbbed.

   turns out to be ~IndoMTL.com~ This is the feeling of "I am a fish, and I am a knife"!

   Eleven Niang's hands on the skirt were tightly clenched into fists, and the nails did not feel pain when pinched in the flesh.

   I have to find a way to change my situation... This feeling of letting someone else control my destiny is too uncomfortable!

  "...It also saves her errands, and lets her serve you wholeheartedly, so that you can embroider the Baishou screen with peace of mind." The voice of the big lady seemed to be far away in the sky, and it seemed to be close to your ears. Her brain "buzzed". "Amber is a capable person. I can rest assured that she will serve by your side. From now on, leave the affairs in your house to her!"

  The matter is over, she doesn't have the ability to resist, so she doesn't want to refute anything.

  Eleven Niang forced herself to clean up.

   Her top priority is to deal with everything in front of her.

   Eleven Niang showed a face of shame, and squatted halfway to give the old lady a blessing: "Thank you, mother!"

   "That's it!" The big lady showed a bit of fatigue on her face, and told Wu Xiaoquan: "I will tell the two young ladies about the size and style of the screen, so that their eyes will not be blackened. Wait for them. Sisters have discussed it, you will come back and forth again."

   Wu Xiao's family responded with a smile.

Mrs.    brought tea: "You guys go down!"

   did not mention Holly’s marriage at all.

   Did you forget?

   Or is it because now is not the time?

  Eleven Niang couldn't help but glanced at Yao's mother who was standing far behind the big lady.

   Mother Yao also looked over.

   The two eyes collided in the air. Eleven Niang saw the uncompromising eyes of the other party.

   She suddenly felt sad for herself.

   Now she has only the ability to fight someone like Yao's mother!
