Chapter 52 Olive Branch (please subscribe)
After dinner, the maids removed the hot pot and brought tea and snacks.

The snacks are served on five or six small plates, which are filled with the sweets that Qiao Yun brought back.Round mung bean cakes, small biscuits of various shapes, sliced ​​red dates and walnut candies, colorful hard fruit candies, snow-white toffee...

Both Meng Shaoqing and Yun Xuemei love sweets. When they saw this table of dim sum, they were more excited than seeing the hot pot, and almost drooled.

Mrs. Lu called the maid.

"Is there a small flat box with a fan in the gift that girl Yun gave you, bring it here."

The servant girl answered yes and went to look for it.After a while, he came back with the box in his hands: "Ma'am, it must be this."

Qiao Yun saw it and nodded hurriedly: "It is indeed this."

Mrs. Lu then took the box and opened it.

hiss--

She gasped.

She doesn't know Shu embroidery, but this picture of a peacock flying southeast is very different from the popular Suzhou embroidery.If we talk about embroidering flowers and birds, Suzhou embroidery can also embroider lifelike.

But this embroidery is different, it is just a fan, such a narrow piece of silk, the peacock on it is vivid, full of three-dimensionality, bright and full in color, the light and shadow are well grasped.It's like... It's like smashing a real peacock and pressing it on a fan!
Yun Xuemei was also shocked when she saw this fan.

As a native of Yizhou, Yun Xuemei grew up in Chengdu until she was 15 years old. She has seen countless large and small embroideries in Sichuan.

This kind of bright and bright embroidery with strong visual impact can be seen in the entire Xuantang, and there is no other place to see it.

Qiao Yun...how could she do this?
Oh, yes, she must have made it in another world again.

Yun Xuemei convinced herself.

"You actually embroidered this? How long did it take?" Mrs. Lu carefully picked up the fan handle, her eyes were full of surprise.

Qiao Yun nodded shyly, and said modestly: "I embroidered it in my spare time. I thought I'd just finished my studies and try to embroider anything, so I embroidered a fan."

……

"You just learned it not long ago?"

These few words deeply hurt Mrs. Lu's heart.

She glanced at Meng Shaoqing, who was holding a biscuit and gnawed like a squirrel.

I couldn't help but feel a kind of frustration in my heart.

She is also an 11-year-old girl, how could she know how to cook and pour face cream, and her embroidery skills are so exquisite!
"Where did you learn from?"

But to be reasonable, if there really is such a beautiful embroiderer, as the highest-ranking female family member in Quwo County, how could she not know?

Qiao Yun immediately replied: "My grandmother is from Yizhou. But she went earlier."

When Yun Xuemei heard this, the corners of her mouth curled up silently.

Kidney beans lied to her again.

But she is very happy, which is exactly what Kidou needs her to do.Otherwise, being raised by kidney beans all day long, she would feel like a baby.

So Yun Xuemei affirmed Qiao Yun's statement, she nodded with some regret, and sighed: "This is a common embroidery method in the middle of Sichuan. I haven't learned it at all. Fortunately, girl Yun is very talented, otherwise I am If Mother's good embroidery skills are not passed on, the old man may not be reconciled if she leaves."

Mrs. Lu is not actually a native of Quwo County either.

She came here with her husband who came here to take office three years ago.

She really didn't know what happened in Quwo County three years ago.

Mrs. Lu gave up, and couldn't help but marvel: "It's a pity to use such embroidery skills to make a fan! You should find a piece of high-quality rosewood, carve out a shelf, and put it on the shelf as a decoration." Everywhere in the house is beautiful."

Qiao Yun laughed and said, "It's a pity that I can't get any good wood! I can only afford the jade bamboo fan handle, so I made a fan handle."

"I do have this kind of decoration, but the middle is embedded with ordinary embroidery. Yun girl, if you allow me to borrow flowers to present Buddha, I will take the initiative to dismantle this fan and reassemble it into a decoration to bring to Mrs. Governor as a congratulatory gift. "

"Naturally, this book is for you. It's none of my business what you want to do with it." Qiao Yun's eyes widened as she smiled, she didn't mind at all.

What's more, this fan was originally intended to be made into a pendant or decoration in the game. It is really wasteful to use such a good pair of embroidery to make a fan that is exposed to the wind and sun all day.

The surprise in Lu's eyes was even worse, she quickly ordered the maid to take down the fan and invite the artisans to come.He also told him to be careful not to damage the embroidery on it.

Now the congratulatory gift is really safe.

In the past few days, she was so anxious that she almost got angry!
Looking at Qiao Yun again, she felt that this girl was very pleasing to the eye.

Just like that, she didn't want to worry about things that were unclear between her and her son.

Meng Shaoheng has an attractive face, and he loves to hang out.If it's ordinary commoners who don't have long eyes and want to climb high, she will definitely use thunder to calm those little hooves.But right now this person is Qiao Yun, she decided to send her away.

"If this embroidery really wins the favor of the governor's wife, I will make peace for you. Then you can go to the needlework bureau of the governor's mansion, how do you think? Jiangzhou mansion is big and lively, and there is only one in the governor's mansion." It’s very leisurely to serve Mrs. Governor. With your skill, you can’t accept the reward from Mrs. Governor! It’s better than shrinking in such a small county town and selling wontons outside every day!"

The daughter of a merchant's family hooks up with the county magistrate, isn't she looking for a future with no worries about food and clothing?The purpose of Lu's actions is to wait for girl Yun to see how big the outside world is, so she will stop paying attention to the gentleman of the county magistrate's mansion.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Yun shook her head.

"Thank you Madam for your kindness. But I have other plans to stay in Quwo right now."

"Oh?" Lu raised her eyebrows, Jiangzhou is an upper state, and the governor of Jiangzhou is a high-ranking official from the third rank!Who would not be envious of being able to work for Mrs. Jiangzhou governor?She would like to hear what this girl thinks, to refuse such a good job.

Qiao Yun replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Everything must be down-to-earth. This Shu embroidery was only circulated in Yizhou before, after all, it is rare in Hebei Road. If I listen to Madam, then I will only have Mrs. Governor as a customer , not to mention that everything will be subject to her preferences from now on. I will try my best to make my embroidery work sought after by everyone, compared to just serving Mrs. Governor, that would be a great fortune."

"You're right!" Mrs. Lu showed approval.

If Qiao Yun really took the olive branch she offered, she would be sure that this girl really didn't want to work hard and was greedy for glory, so the matter of hooking up with her son would not have gone away.

But Qiao Yun did not disappoint her, she is a good boy.

"But how tiring is this? You have to sell wontons and find time to do needlework. How can you be so busy? You are only 11 years old. It's time for you to grow up. Don't get sick because of saving money. It's not worth it. "

"It's up to you, madam." Qiao Yun showed a flattering smile.
