The girl who wears fast

Chapter 987 Imperial Examination Evil Granny (10)

"My lady, I only get a penny or two for writing a letter, and I earn only a few hundred dollars a month." Han Ji said with a wry smile.

"Why so little?" Zhang Luoyi was shocked, "I bought a handkerchief for more than one or two cash! Then how did you pay for your previous studies?"

"My mother earned it by doing embroidery work. Her embroidery skills are very good. Is there an embroidery workshop in the town? My mother often picks up work there. Sometimes when a rich family needs a lot of embroidery for weddings, my mother will do it." Her body and eyes will be damaged like this." When Han Ji said this, he was also taken aback for a moment, only to realize that his mother had worked really hard for him to study, and he thought he could earn money. Money, in fact, is just a psychological comfort, because if it is only the money he earns, it is impossible for him to afford to study.

Zhang Luoyi heard this, but said happily: "I can also embroider. When I was young, my mother specially asked the old embroiderer who came back from the county to teach me. Then I will do embroidery to support you in the future."

Han Ji was moved and guilty: "It will be very hard..."

"I'm not afraid of hard work!" Zhang Luoyi replied, "I can do what my mother could do for you before." She was full of confidence.

Han Ji immediately hugged her: "My lady, thank you, I will never let you down in the future."

"Okay, isn't it for our future?" Zhang Luoyi felt as sweet as honey when she heard his words. At this time, she didn't know that doing embroidery was not as easy as she imagined. At that time, Zhang's mother felt sorry for her, and only asked her to do embroidery for half an hour a day, and embroidered an ordinary purse, which required a lot of boasting, so she thought she was very talented in embroidery.

When Wu Shichu saw Zhang Luoyi embroidering with a serious face while holding the embroidery shed, he was very surprised: "Luo Yi, how did you start to embroider?"

"I want to do some embroidery work to subsidize the family." Zhang Luoyi immediately replied with a smile, "Just like mother before, now my husband has to continue studying in the academy, the family can't cut off their income."

"Very good, Han Ji is really lucky to marry you." Wu Shichu said meaningfully, "It's a pity that my eyesight is not good, so I can't do this kind of delicate work for a long time, and it will only make you tired. "

"It's not tiring, it's not tiring. For the sake of my husband, I don't feel hard at all." Zhang Luoyi shook her head and said, and lowered her head to embroider again.

Wu Shichu looked at her movements. The embroidery technique is very ordinary, and the movements are quite skilled, but there is no advantage in speed. The embroidered patterns are ordinary, neither vivid nor exquisite. The embroidery work is far worse than the original owner who relies on embroidery to support his family.

However, Wu Shichu would not be so disappointing to dampen Zhang Luoyi's confidence, anyway, when she sells it in the embroidery workshop, the boss there will definitely find out all kinds of shortcomings in her embroidery without any hesitation.

Zhang Luoyi embroidered enthusiastically for less than half an hour, but felt tired from keeping her neck down all the time, her back began to ache from sitting for too long, her fingers holding the needle were stiff, and her eyes began to sting, she suddenly felt a little nervous Disheartened, it turns out that doing embroidery work is not as easy as she thought.

"Are you tired? Get up and move around if you're tired, or your body won't be able to take it anymore." When Wu Shichu's words came out, Zhang Luoyi jumped, and then she blushed. As I said, my mother-in-law used to do it all day long.

Wouldn't it make me look useless if I stopped so quickly?So she gritted her teeth and shook her head: "No, I'm not tired, I can continue."

As she said that, she immediately put on a vigorous look, and began to embroider again.

Wu Shichu didn't continue to persuade her.

But just after a while, Zhang Luoyi suddenly called out, and then covered her index finger in a panic.

"What's wrong?" Wu Shichu walked over to her and asked her.

"I accidentally pricked my hand." Zhang Luoyi raised her head and replied tearfully, Wu Shichu looked at her finger, and sure enough, she saw blood dripping from her finger.

"It's okay, just cover the handkerchief for a while and stop." Wu Shichu said flatly.

Hearing her indifferent words, Zhang Luoyi immediately felt aggrieved in her heart. She worked so hard to do embroidery, and if she was pricked by a needle, shouldn't she deserve to be cared for?

After Wu Shichu said that, he stretched out his hands and said, "Look, my ten fingers are full of small holes made by needles, just get used to it."

Zhang Luoyi was startled for a moment, and looked at Wu Shichu's outstretched fingers, and sure enough, she saw that her fingers were all bruised. Although the pinholes on her fingers had healed, there were tiny holes left behind, which looked a little bit scary.

Zhang Luoyi was immediately ashamed. She was ashamed of the grievance in her heart just now. Compared with the bruises like her mother-in-law, she is just a pinprick, what is it?Not even worth mentioning!

Zhang Luoyi, who was shocked by the scar on Wu Shichu's hand, immediately threw away all the grievance and coquettishness in her heart, wiped the blood on her finger with a handkerchief, and said: "Such a small injury is really nothing, it was me Too much fuss."

Wu Shichu smiled lightly, and didn't say anything more. When he was hurt, someone felt sorry for him, so he would "make a fuss out of a molehill" without hesitation. If no one felt sorry for him, then he felt wronged and sad. Pretentious".

Zhang Luoyi continued to embroider for another half an hour, but she couldn't hold on any longer. She was so tired that she couldn't even raise her head, and her waist was so stiff that it hurt even to stand up.

She wanted to cry again, why did she think it was so difficult?Obviously embroidery looks easy, but who knows that it is also a very difficult thing to do it yourself.

Zhang Luoyi suddenly lost confidence in herself. Can she really rely on doing embroidery work for her husband to study and take exams?She has never experienced any hardships since she was a child. The biggest hardship was learning to wash and cook. She thought it would be very hard and tiring, but she didn't expect that there would be even more tiring and hard work waiting for her.

She has already begun to regret that she went to Haikou with Han Jikua.

"Press your neck and back with your hands, move slowly, don't worry, it will be bad if you twist your neck or waist." Wu Shichu persuaded her when he saw her stiff movements.

"Or let Mrs. Song press it for you, and it will ease up faster." Wu Shichu suggested, then sighed, and said sadly, "I used to do embroidery work for a day to stand up, and it took me two minutes to stand up." Only when the clock is completely relieved can I walk. At that time, no one can help me massage my neck and back. Now you have Mrs. Song, and you are already very happy."

Wu Shichu's words made Zhang Luoyi feel complicated. She didn't think it was so great for her mother-in-law to do embroidery work for her husband to study, until she started to do this work herself.
