Chapter 76 Qingqing is back

The Lunar New Year is almost in February.Maybe it's a bit late this year, but on the eighth day of the lunar new year, there is already a hint of spring, and the weather is getting warmer. There is no need to wrap up in leather jackets all day long, and you can just wear thicker ordinary clothes to keep out the cold.

The winter coat that Mrs. Lu rewarded last time has already been cut, and the lining is made of white woven silk, and the filling is light and warm goose down.Now I can't wear it anymore.When no guests came, Qiao Yun set up a table behind the counter, sat at the table and removed the lining bit by bit.

She took a bag of fluffy and soft cotton from the game, and replaced the goose down with thin cotton, wrapping it around her body was not so hot, it was the clothes she was wearing at this time.

Originally, she could have done these jobs in the game, but she wanted to do it herself.

After all, the person Qiao Yun set up for herself has always been a child from a poor family who has been in charge of the family for a long time. It would be better to have more skills so that her own person can be set up.

In fact, as far as her cooking skills are concerned, it is normal for her not to be able to mend clothes, but her embroidery skills are not bad. How can there be someone who can only embroider but not sew?In order to make up for this shortcoming, she had no choice but to practice with this dress.

Here, Qiao Yun was unraveling the thread stitch by stitch. With the movement of the hanging curtain being raised, the wind chime at the door rang crisply and melodiously, "Sister Qiao's family!"

Mrs. Sai from next door came again. Before she entered the door, a familiar shout came from outside.

Qiao Yun hurriedly put the bag of cotton on hand into the game, then raised her face and said with a smile, "Ma'am, you are here! Have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten!" Mrs. Sai twisted her rich body, holding a load of things in her hands. "It's not going to be spring soon. I think your mother is not in good health, so I will help you do some sewing. Not to mention anything else, but the clothes of the two of you need to be changed, and one of you needs to wrap wontons and make more money." How can people be so busy to look at the store?"

"Thank you so much, ma'am! I've been busy all day!" Qiao Yun put down her work and stood up.Sitting two people behind the counter is a bit cramped.Qiao Yun moved the small table and chairs to the backyard, and called Aunt Sai to come and do some work in the backyard.

The sun is very good today, and the front and back of the house can get warm sunshine under the wall, so it is very comfortable to sit here all afternoon.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, she also replaced the thick curtain on the back door of the shop with a shorter square silk curtain, so that if guests come, the sound of the wind chimes can be heard more clearly.

"Hey, what are you drying here? It's bright red, so pretty." Aunt Sai noticed the bamboo plaque on the roof of her house as soon as she entered the door.

"It's chili. It's picked from the mountains, and it can be ground into chili powder after drying. It's more pungent than ginger mustard and cornel."

"Spicy?" Mrs. Sai has a bland taste, and she lost interest as soon as she heard the word "spicy". She didn't continue this topic, but opened her bag. Inside was a bag of white things, which looked very similar to cotton. Like, but lighter.She said, "This is the silk floss that was taken out of my family's previous quilt. I have washed it, dried it, and found someone to play it again. I will use it to sew some jackets for you to wear in the winter."

"It's too expensive! I know silk floss, but I think it costs a lot of money a catty in the cloth store!"

"Damn! Where did you buy this!" Aunt Sai smiled and took out Qiao Yun's clothes that Qiao Yun had piled up in the bamboo basket and put them on her lap, skillfully removing the stitches. Give it to me! I work in an embroidery workshop in Jiangzhou City, and I’m responsible for raising silkworms and reeling silk. The floating silk on the leftover cocoons and cocoon shells can’t be made into fine silk, so they can only be spun into silk floss. This is what my daughter learned They bought silkworms and spun them themselves."

"Then your daughter is amazing, spinning and weaving is such a good craft! Knowing this, you will never be hungry anywhere!" Qiao Yun praised sincerely, and once again admired the wisdom of the ancient working people from the bottom of her heart.

Compared with cotton and goose down, the warmth retention of this silk floss is not bad at all!

"You're not bad either! The fat sausage you brought over yesterday is not bad at all compared to serious roast meat! My old man drank two more glasses of wine with that fat sausage!" Mrs. Sai said while busy , she glanced at the quiet main house, lowered her voice, and asked curiously: "Why didn't your mother come out, is she sick again?"

Qiao Yun almost choked on her own saliva.

Yun Xuemei has always had that temperament, she is indifferent to everyone, if it is not necessary to go out with Qiao Yun to socialize, she is not willing to meet strangers at all.

At first, Qiao Yun bought some miscellaneous novels from the bookseller of the game to relieve her boredom, but she fell in love with Yun Xuemei immediately.Seeing Tianer holding a book by the table, and reading a book with a box of desserts she made and scented tea with honey.

In order to cover it up, she has always said that her mother suffered from illnesses when she was born, and she has always been in poor health.

Hearing this question, Qiao Yun quickly covered it up and said: "Oh! A few days ago, she was greedy for the cold, and she wore one less dress. She started coughing after walking around the yard and returning to the house. How dare I let her go out to see the wind? ?”

Tsk tsk tsk, Mrs. Sai smacked her lips when she heard the words.

That woman is a very good-looking beauty, but it is a pity that she is a sick child, and she will perish in the wind.It's a pity that the affairs of this family have to be handled by girl Yun alone!If it weren't for that, with that face, she could be a concubine or follow-up to a rich man's husband, and she wouldn't need her daughter to go out to suffer.

With the help of Mrs. Sai, a skilled needleworker, several winter clothes were quickly removed, and the next step was to stuff them with silk floss.

Aunt Sai raised her head, rubbed her sore neck, suddenly felt a little too quiet, and said, "You really don't have many guests! It's been so long and you haven't heard the wind chime outside."

After staring at the needlework for a long while, Qiao Yun's eyes became a little sour.She stood up, stretched her hands and feet, and said with a smile: "It's always been like this! There is no charcoal fire in the left and right shops, and it doesn't cost money to open it. What if there are customers coming? Madam, sit down for a while, I'm going to get some tea and snacks, let's take a break and then continue."

As soon as Qiao Yun finished speaking, the wind chimes in front of her rang.

"Sister Ayun, I'm coming!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Qiao Yun suddenly stood up from the chair.

"Oh, I just said that there are no guests, so here comes someone!" Aunt Sai smiled from ear to ear, and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore, I will keep this silk for you, and we will continue tomorrow!"

Qiao Yun didn't have time to speak, so she just nodded, took three steps at a time, lifted the curtain and came into the room, very happy: "Qingqing! You came back from Jiangzhou?"

It's not just Meng Shaoqing who came!She also brought a maid with her, who was also holding a bundle in her hand.

"Yes! I brought you a present!"

"I haven't seen you in a few days, let me take a good look at you!" Qiao Yun happily watched Meng Shaoqing being dressed up more beautifully and cuter, and pulled her to look at her skirt and hair enviously.

Her bun is like a bunny, and there are many complicated braids around it. With a head made of silver and powder tourmaline, it is as cute as it can be.Qiao Yun herself has no patience for braiding such a complicated bun, and she usually just pulls two hair buns and is done.The only time I wore it was combed by a maid in the Meng Mansion during the Chinese New Year.

The clothes she was wearing were obviously just made during the Chinese New Year.A spring plum red round-neck half-arm jacket, cuffs and neck trimmed with white rabbit fleece, inside is a pale crimson jacket; the lower body is tied with a skirt of twelve rips in bright green and primrose. , the primrose-colored cloth is also embroidered with extremely delicate grape vines, the whole person is elegant and lovely.

"Whose little lady is this! So noble!" Mrs. Sai, who came in behind her, stared straight at Meng Shaoqing.

Meng Shaoqing blinked, but couldn't figure out why a middle-aged woman appeared in Qiao Yun's backyard!
Seeing that she was puzzled, Qiao Yun explained to Meng Shaoqing: "This is the proprietress of the grocery store next door, her surname is Sai. I am doing needlework later, and she is here to help."

Meng Shaoqing suddenly realized, and bowed obediently and cleverly: "Hello, Mrs. Sai! My name is Meng! I am sister Ayun's good friend."

Can girl Yun still know this little lady from a rich family?The surname is Meng. Which family member in the county has the surname Meng?

Wait... Isn't the wealthy family named Meng in this county the magistrate's family?

Aunt Sai was quite surprised, her eyes widened...
