Chapter 38 Liu's Invite Song Zhiyue to embroider auspicious clothes
Yan Xiao didn't care about what Song Zhiyue said, so she didn't respond to Song Zhiyue's words. Song Zhiyue didn't say anything when she saw Yan Xiao, turned around and glanced at Yan Xiao and said, "Yan Xiao, you better not go out recently, just buy groceries."
Let Mother Sun go! You prepare for the next two days and follow me to the Liu Mansion in a few days." After Song Zhiyue finished speaking, she went out regardless of Yanxiao's reaction.
Yan Xiao looked at Song Zhiyue. Although what Song Zhiyue said was not pleasant, Yan Xiao still thanked her for opening the door for him, otherwise he would probably have to sleep on the street tonight.
In the next few days, Yan Xiao didn't go out. This was not because of Song Zhiyue's words that night, but because Yan Xiao had a lot of things to do. She had been busy outside for the past three days, and she was quite busy at the Chinese Valentine's Day Poetry Festival.
After some insights, she was inspired and had some ideas for the next men's clothing. She wanted to remember to draw them while she had time.
In addition to the design drawings of men's clothes, there are also the remaining twelve volumes of poetry manuscripts, which she promised to the owner of Moxiang Bookstore. She has to hurry up and finish them quickly, and she will start to open the store later. I'm afraid it will be too late.
There won't be much time to do this anymore.
After the first volume of poems was sold in Xunyang, this was the first night Yan Xiao came back to retreat to write books. Lin Youwei went out without eating breakfast and came back at night. The whole family was curious about Lin Youwei.
What did Youwei go out for? In the past, when Lin Youwei went out so early, they all knew that he was looking for Hong Zhao, but now they really have no idea what he is doing here.
For this matter, Song Zhiyue specially called Yan Xiao and Hong Zhao together and asked: "Yan Xiao, tell me why Jiweiwei has been leaving early and coming back late recently, and he has stopped reading this book well?
"
Yan Xiao was confused by Song Zhiyue's words. She said, "How do I know this? I haven't been at home very much these days, and I haven't said a few words to him. Hong Zhao should know best what he is doing when he goes out."
Hearing this, Song Zhiyue looked at Hong Zhao again, and Hong Zhao immediately stood up and replied: "I heard from Youwei that a Mr. Zhuyao appeared in Xunyang City recently, and Youwei told me yesterday that this Mr. Zhuyao looks like...
A book of poems has been published. He went out early today to buy this book of poems!"
When Yan Xiao heard it, it became clear. In his heart, he admired the speed of the owner of Mo Xiang Bookstore. He had just sold the poem manuscript to him the day before yesterday, and today he bought a book.
At dusk, Lin Youwei brought back a book and was still mumbling something. When he saw Song Zhiyue, Hong Zhao and Sun's mother in the main hall, he hurriedly came over with his book and said: "Mother
, let me tell you that this Master Zhuyao is really very powerful, and the poems he wrote are simply amazing!"
Seeing this, Hong Zhao, who was sitting below, quickly winked at Lin Youwei. Seeing this, Lin Youwei quickly put away his playful expression and saluted respectfully.
"Son, please give my mother a greeting!"
Song Zhiyue responded and said: "Put away your tricks! Our family has not been doing this for many years."
"Yes, mother." Lin Youwei stood up and came to Hong Zhao's side, showing her book to Hong Zhao.
Yan Xiao stayed at home for five days, and finally produced three drawings and copied four volumes of poetry manuscripts. Yan Xiao stretched his arms. In the past few days, except for eating and going to the toilet, Yan Xiao basically stayed in his room and drew manuscripts.
and copy poems.
Yan Xiao looked at the drawings he had drawn. The three sets of men's clothing were made of Taoist robes, large cloaks, and round collar robes. The patterns on them were also different. The Taoist robes themselves had an elegant and easy-going feel, and Yan Xiao decorated them with cloud patterns.
Flowers. The other two pieces are an azure embroidered Venetian pattern round collar robe and a pale blue embroidered crane cloak.
After finally finishing it, Yan Xiao thought about sending the things to others immediately, but seeing that it was already past noon outside, he was afraid that it would be too late to come back. Yan Xiao had no choice but to put these things away and put them in his cabinet for tomorrow.
go out.
Opening the cabinet, the cabinet was filled with the original owner's previous clothes. After Yan Xiao came here, except for the two sets of clothes he bought from the Treasure Pavilion, he didn't buy any new clothes. Besides, the two sets of clothes he bought from the Treasure Pavilion are still in his own space.
It was sitting inside, although it wasn't gathering dust, it was still unused. Yan Xiao put the drawings and poems he drew in boxes and placed them at the bottom of the cabinet.
I saw that the clothes I wore last time were still in the closet, so I took them out to wash. While the sun was shining now, I could take them to Sister Qiaoyun tomorrow.
Yan Xiao took out her clothes and went to the well to get water to wash her clothes. In this era, soap locust was used to wash clothes. Yan Xiao also took the soap locust. She knew how to use it after seeing others use it. Moreover, the scent of this soap locust was quite special.
of.
On the second day, after breakfast, Yanxiao wanted to go out. He went back to the room, packed yesterday's laundry and the wooden box, and took it with him to go out. As soon as he walked to the front yard, he saw Liu's mother and daughter coming out of the door.
When they came in, both mother and daughter were holding something in their hands. Liu Yuqing was holding a food box in her hand, and Ms. Liu was also holding a wooden box in her hand. The wooden box looked pretty good and should contain very good things.
When Yan Xiao saw the two of them, he was about to turn around and go back, but as soon as he turned around, he was stopped by Liu Yuqing.
"Sister-in-law, are you going out?"
Following Liu Yuqing's words, everyone in the group looked at Yan Xiao. Yan Xiao knew that he couldn't get out today, so he simply turned around and spoke openly to everyone.
"Hey, it's Yuqing who's here! I haven't seen you for many days. Aunt Liu is here too. Please sit in the room!"
"Mama Sun, we have guests at home, please prepare tea quickly."
The laughter was loud, and the kitchen was just around the corner from the front yard, so Mother Sun also replied: "Yes, young lady!"
Song Zhiyue stood nearby and immediately looked bad when she saw the baggage in Yan Xiao's hand. However, it didn't look good because of the presence of outsiders. She just said: "Go and help Sun's mother and let her go buy groceries on the street."
. Is Hong Zhao in the backyard? Let her come to the main hall too, and don’t always stay in the backyard."
Liu Yuqing saw it and said hurriedly: "Just in time, I brought some cakes when I came here today. I bought them from Fuchun House early this morning. I will accompany my sister-in-law to make tea!"
As Liu Yuqing spoke, she handed the food box in her hand to the maid behind her. Only then did Yan Xiao see someone behind them. Normally, the mother and daughter did not bring the maid with them when they came to the Lin family, but for some reason they did not bring the maid with them today.
I brought the maid over.
The maid took the local food box from Liu Yuqing's hand, and Liu Yuqing walked quickly towards Yan Xiao. She walked to Yan Xiao's side and glanced at the baggage on Yan Xiao's arm and said, "Sister-in-law, let me get it for you!"
After Liu Yuqing finished speaking, before Yan Xiao could say anything, she reached for the baggage in Yan Xiao's hand. Yan Xiao said hurriedly: "Don't bother Sister Yuqing. It's not heavy. Let's go to the kitchen to make tea!"
As Yan Xiao said that, he transferred the bag to his other hand, took Liu Yuqing's hand and walked towards the kitchen. Liu Yuqing was not as strong as Yan Xiao, and she tried to break away Yan Xiao's hand several times but failed.
I was very unhappy, but because of my gentle and dignified image, I couldn't get angry at Yan Xiao, so I had no choice but to let Yan Xiao drag me to the kitchen.
When the two of them arrived in the kitchen, Sun's mother had just washed the dishes. When she saw her young lady coming with Liu Yuqing, she turned around and saluted.
Yan Xiao handed the baggage in his hand to Mother Sun and said, "Mother Sun, take this and put it in my room later." Then he took out his wallet, opened it, looked at it and said, "These
It’s all the money for today’s vegetables. My sister and Aunt Liu are having dinner at home this noon. You go buy some vegetables and come back. You can decide what vegetables to buy. If you want more meat, I will cook it myself today.”
Mother Sun took the money bag and said, "Yes, young lady." Mother Sun put the money bag Yan Xiao gave her away, picked up the vegetable basket hanging on the wall and went out.
"Sister Yuqing, you often make cakes at home. I think this fire should be good. Otherwise, you can help my sister-in-law to light the fire. I will prepare the cups and tea." Yan Xiao took Liu Yuqing's hand and said kindly.
"Sister-in-law, actually I..."
Yan Xiao heard Liu Yuqing's words and interrupted her before she finished speaking. He pretended to be confused and asked, "What's wrong? Sister Yuqing, don't you know how to light a fire?"
"Of course not, I'm just looking to see where your flints are?" Liu Yuqing shook her head and said.
"Oh, here it is." Yan Xiao took out the flint from behind the stove and handed it to Liu Yuqing.
Liu Yuqing hesitated for a moment, took the flint from Yan Xiao's hand, straightened her skirt and sat in front of the stove to light the fire. Starting the fire did not bother Liu Yuqing, so she took the flint and grabbed a handful of grass that was placed next to the fire.
Place it at the mouth of the stove, rub the flint a few times, and the grass will ignite.
Yan Xiao was a little surprised when he saw Liu Yuqing's skillful movements, but he also thought that this would not be a problem for Liu Yuqing.
The two of them quickly made a pot of tea. Liu Yuqing was washing her hands aside. Yan Xiao took it and went out first. After washing her hands, Liu Yuqing saw that no one was in the room, took out a bag of things from her sleeves and walked to the water.
I stood in front of the post for a while and then went out.
The two walked to the main hall and saw Ms. Liu sitting next to Song Zhiyue. She opened the box in her hand and said to Song Zhiyue: "Sister, this is a century-old ginseng that my ex-father got. I think of your family."
Someone happened to be pregnant, so I brought it over to replenish the body."
Song Zhiyue was very happy when she saw the ginseng in Liu's hand. The roots were intact and the color was good. She immediately picked it up from the box, looked at it and said, "This is really a good ginseng. This is too expensive for my sister."
Already."
Mrs. Liu quickly smiled and said, "Sister, what are you talking about? We have been sisters for so many years, can't I still give you this thing?"
"Here comes the tea." Yan Xiao held six cups of tea and placed them in front of these people one by one. Then he left. Liu Yuqing came in and took the food box from the maid's hand, opened the food box and put it in front of the two elders and said
: "Auntie, these are the snacks I bought from Fuchunlou this morning. These are some new styles of snacks they released after the Chinese Valentine's Day Poetry Festival. Auntie, would you like to try them and see how they taste?"
"Okay, this snack is so exquisite!" Song Zhiyue picked up a piece of snack and said.
Yan Xiao put down the tea tray and came back. He happened to bump into Hong Zhao who came out, and the two of them went in together. Of course, Yan Xiao saw the snacks on the table first. They were indeed different from what he saw in Zuichun Tower, and they were even more prepared.
It's exquisite.
A few people gathered around the snacks and chatted for a while. When Mrs. Liu saw that the polite words were almost done, she said: "Sister, the day of Yu Qing's haircut is coming soon. I came here today to ask my sister to come over tomorrow to help Yu Qing's hairpin."
Needle."
After hearing this, Song Zhiyue said: "This is a good thing. I promised you originally. I will go back naturally. There is no need for you to make another trip."
Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "Didn't I think you would have a grandson soon? That's why I came here to give you this ginseng." This chapter has been completed!
