Chapter 18 The Treasure of the Town Store

"I scanned a top-grade embroidery piece. Do you want to redeem it?"

Just when Yu Qingzhi was stunned, the electronic sound of the system came out again.

"no."

Almost without thinking, Yu Qingzhi made her choice.

Surprise showed on her face, she looked at He Lianjun with joy and asked, "Is this embroidered by Wanyue?"

He Lianjun nodded, feeling that the answer was too simple, and added: "Wanyue said that there is no gold-sprinkled rice paper at home. Except for gold-sprinkled rice paper, no other paper is worthy of your marriage certificate, so she embroidered one. I hope you can

Don’t dislike it.”

"Why would you dislike it?" Yu Qingzhi looked at the marriage letter in surprise, her round almond eyes shining like the bright moon.

Although the birth date and horoscope on it are not hers, this marriage certificate seems to be an acknowledgment of her coming from a different world and a symbol of her official joining this family.

For Yu Qingzhi, this sense of ceremony is more surprising than any gift.

She carefully touched the embroidery on it, feeling the embroidery thread rubbing on her fingertips.

After a moment, she turned to look at He Lianjun, "Can I hang it in Wanyue's embroidery shop? She will definitely become the treasure of Heji embroidery shop."

But this is their marriage certificate.

He Lianjun subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he raised his head and met Yu Qingzhi's hopeful eyes, he couldn't say those words.

He sighed helplessly and whispered: "As long as you want, you can do it."

Yu Qingzhi's face was full of joy, she thanked He Lianjun and walked out, "I'm going to find Uncle Li to build a wooden frame right now!"

This marriage letter had a huge impact on her, and she even forgot to tell He Lianjun about the information she had learned about the headmaster of Shangshan Academy.

It wasn't until she told Uncle Li about the wooden frame's request and on the way back that Yu Qingzhi remembered what she wanted to tell He Lianjun.

She hurried home and found that He Lianjun was still waiting for her at home. She smiled shyly and said, "I was a little excited just now. I'm going to cook. After dinner, I have something to tell you."

"Speak now and I'll give you a hand." He Lianjun followed her pace and said.

With his help, cooking was much faster than before. Yu Qingzhi said about Lu Jinyuan: "That Mr. Lu Shanzhang doesn't have any hobbies, but his wife has had something good happen recently. I heard that she is looking for a suitable embroiderer to embroider clothes for her children. I

Thinking that Wanyue is going to open an embroidery shop, why not let Wanyue recommend herself? Then I will go with her, so you don't have to worry."

He Lianjun also asked about Lu Jinyuan's preferences before, but found nothing. He was not a good man, so he started with Mrs. Lu, but with Yu Qingzhi here, everything was different.

He nodded, "Mr. Lu Shan loves his wife very much. If you do this, you will definitely be able to see him."

"Yes." Yu Qingzhi raised the spatula in her hand, full of confidence, "Even if Young Master Zhang doesn't say good things for Acheng, I believe that as long as Mr. Lu Shan has met Acheng, he will definitely accept him!"

She was so confident that He Lianjun was a little confused. Is the Acheng that Yu Qingzhi mentioned was his younger brother?

He laughed silently and continued to immerse himself in cooking.

During dinner in the evening, Yu Qingzhi told He Wanyue about this matter. Hearing that his sister-in-law was still busy with his studies, He Lancheng refused to say no, so he had to silently pick up some chopsticks for his sister-in-law.

Early the next morning, Yu Qingzhi handed over the shop to Erni and went with He Wanyue to the elder's house in Lushan to run for embroidery girl.

However, they followed the direction they inquired and found Lu Jinyuan's home. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Mrs. Zhou from the Zhou Family Embroidery Workshop.

I haven't seen her for many days, but Mrs. Zhou no longer has the arrogance she used to have. Instead, she lowers her eyebrows and is extremely gentle.

Yu Qingzhi saw Madam Zhou, and Madam Zhou also saw her. She turned sideways and said to Mrs. Lu, who was already showing her affection for her, "It seems that there are many people who want to make clothes for the young master. This is the shopkeeper Yu from Chenshui Incense Shop."

, that is her husband’s sister, her name is He Wanyue, her craftsmanship is extremely good, even the embroidery lady from my Zhou family embroidery workshop can’t compare with her!”

Because of these words, Mrs. Lu turned around and saw He Wanyue's gentle look, and became somewhat interested.

Seeing that she was young, Mrs. Lu waved to her and said, "Miss He, come here and let me see. To be praised by shopkeeper Zhou like this at such a young age, you must be capable. You don't look like you are from a poor family."

, why do you want to be an embroiderer?”

This was the first time He Wanyue met such an enthusiastic person, her face turned red, she glanced at her sister-in-law, and received encouragement from Yu Qingzhi's eyes before she stepped forward and answered.

They had talked before they came here. They must not hide Mrs. Lu this time, so He Wanyue said straight to the point: "I have met Mrs. Lu. The little girl came because there is a young brother in the family who wants to join Shangshan Academy, so she

I thought that if I could make clothes for the young master of the Lu family, I might get a chance to meet the mountain chief."

The best academy in these ten miles and eight towns is Shangshan Academy. Every year, countless people come from all the way to study, so after the time to accept students, Shangshan Academy never makes an exception.

But Ah Cheng has long passed the time of enlightenment. Now he is one year behind. I don’t know how long it will take to catch up in the future. It is better to enter the academy as early as possible.

When Mrs. Lu heard this, her face showed hesitation, and the enthusiasm in her eyes faded by a third. She said tactfully: "As a sister, it is good for you to consider your career for your brother, but I am not good at recruiting students to the academy.

Intervene. If you want to be an embroiderer, I can still keep you as long as it suits you."

As for whether it's appropriate, that's up to her.

Yu Qingzhi didn't dream that Mrs. Lu agreed as soon as she saw He Wanyue. She bravely stepped forward, took out the marriage document that had been prepared and sent it to Mrs. Lu.

"This is the marriage certificate that Wanyue embroidered for me and her brother. I guess Mrs. Lu is also a person who is obsessed with embroidery. You will know Wanyue's skills at a glance." Yu Qingzhi's eyes swept over the basket in Mrs. Lu's hand, and she spoke very eloquently.

Confidence.

Her confidence comes from He Wanyue's embroidery skills.

Mrs. Lu didn't like others to be smart, so she was a little displeased when she heard this. But when she saw the embroidered mandarin ducks and lotuses embroidered on the red background and gold lettering, she couldn't help but be shocked by the exquisite embroidery work.

"Did you embroider this?" Mrs. Lu took the marriage letter and read it over and over for a long time, her face full of reluctance and love.

This wedding letter is exquisite and novel, and the most important thing is that the small regular script with hairpin flowers is particularly beautiful.

But such delicate and dignified regular script is embroidered, which makes people see the extraordinary skill of the embroiderer.

"Exactly." He Wanyue responded.

"If you can embroider such good calligraphy with an embroidery needle, you must have read a book." Mrs. Lu looked at her with admiration and immediately changed her mind, "If your brother can also write such good calligraphy like you, then tomorrow

You might as well bring him here."

She didn't expect that she would get a chance to meet each other after taking out this marriage certificate. He Wanyue looked delighted and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Lu!"

Seeing how excited she was, Mrs. Lu couldn't bear to pour cold water on her, but she still reminded her: "But I can tell you, the mountain leader only saw him once. If you miss this time, you will have to wait until next year."

He Wanyue was still young after all. When she heard this, the smile on her face visibly froze, she bit her lip, feeling disappointed.

Seeing this, Yu Qingzhi blocked her behind him and stepped forward to thank him: "It is enough to have a chance to meet. The rest will be left to him. If the mountain leader thinks it is suitable, he will definitely accept him. If not, he will be accepted."

It's just a good time to take advantage of this half-year's time to improve him a little more so that he can prepare for the Shangshan Academy next year."

"It's good to be prepared for war. If your young brother can study with an attitude of preparing for war, he will definitely be able to gain the attention of the mountain leader." Madam Lu noticed Yu Qingzhi, her face softened, and there was an unnoticeable appreciation in her eyes.

She returned the marriage certificate and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Yu, just now I heard Mrs. Zhou mention your Agarwood Incense Shop to me. I heard that you have great research on spices. I will definitely go to the Agarwood Incense Shop to see it in person one day.

Take a look."

"That green branch is at Chenshui Incense Shop, waiting for good news." Yu Qingzhi was neither humble nor overbearing, with a light smile on her face and very friendly.

Considering that Mrs. Lu was pregnant and it was not suitable to see guests for too long, Yu Qingzhi and He Wanyue did not dare to disturb her too much. They set a time to visit tomorrow and left.

Before leaving, Yu Qingzhi's eyes glanced at Madam Zhou vaguely, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised, but there was no smile, which actually made Madam Zhou's back feel cold.

Having been invisible for so long, she now resigned and quickened her pace, as if she wanted to catch up with Yu Qingzhi and the others.

Mrs. Lu was still reminiscing about the wedding letter He Wanyue had embroidered, when she noticed Madam Zhou's behavior from the corner of her eye. The tail of her beautiful eyes slightly drooped, and the thoughts in her eyes were gathered away.

She was calm and rich, and her voice was cold: "Take down this tea set and don't take it out again."

Her eyes glanced at the tea cup used by Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Lu stood up and left.

Grandma followed her and took care of her every move. After hearing the words, she echoed: "The children of the Zhou family are studying at Shangshan Academy. Mrs. Zhou usually sends things over, but like today, she rushed up eagerly and gave such a big gift.

It’s the first time I’ve seen this pile of things.”

"She is not interested in drinking. She is using me as a raft." Mrs. Lu took grandma's hand and walked slowly, but she couldn't help but look outside the room. "That shopkeeper Yu is a wonderful person."

Grandma said nothing, but secretly remembered this girl Yu in her heart.

At this moment, outside the Lu family's house separated by a wall, Madam Zhou blocked the way of Yu Qingzhi and He Wanyue with a smile on her face, fan in hand and a sarcastic smile on her face.

"In order for He Lancheng to enter Shangshan Academy, you really put in a lot of effort, and you even took out the treasure of the store! If it weren't for the birth date embroidered on it, you probably wouldn't have given the marriage certificate to Mrs. Lu.

Come on!" Mrs. Zhou raised her head with a sneer on her face.

Yu Qingzhi was not used to her, and retorted: "Since I was called to make clothes for Mrs. Lu's future children, I naturally had to show my housekeeping skills to show respect for Mrs. Lu. Could it be that you sent them here?

Are they all worthless?"

Madam Zhou didn't dare to answer this, so she moved her lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense! What I send is all first-class goods!"

"You can give it away, why can't I give it away? Well, only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps." Yu Qingzhi sneered.

"We haven't seen you for a few days, and you are getting more and more rude!" Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth angrily, "Don't forget, this is outside the Lu family. If those people know that you made rude remarks, I don't see how He Lancheng can enter your house.

Go to the mountain academy!"

She spoke so forcefully that even He Wanyue couldn't help it. She poked her head out from behind Yu Qingzhi and asked: "Who made the rude remarks first? You also know that this is the Lu family, so you are not afraid that your words and deeds will be criticized by others."

Do you know?"

The little girl is usually docile and kind, but when she got angry, Madam Zhou was really shocked.

She glared at He Wanyue, but Yu Qingzhi glared back at her, so she had no choice but to look away, twisted her body and glanced at Yu Qingzhi, "Thankfully I still said good things to you in front of Mrs. Lu, my kindness is really spoiling the dog!"

After saying that, she held up her hairpin and turned to leave.

He Wanyue stuck her head out, bit her lip and asked, "Will she be so kind?"

"Of course not." Yu Qingzhi said, "That's why there are ghosts."
