After the rebirth, the cannon fodder left the plot

Chapter 112
In this way, the two of them rarely had time to chat until late at night, chatting about the current situation in this county, and also about the current imperial court, unknowingly, they involved Shen Jingcheng's journey to the capital to obtain the official seal.

Shen Jingcheng and Gu Jin whispered about the grandson of the emperor, and the words were full of sarcasm.

An emperor's grandson even declared him an audience, and I don't know if the old emperor knows his grandson's current style.

But the words can only be said between the two of them under the covers, and they must never be revealed when they go out.
After discussing how to build the dam, He Dongzhi and Yuan Shulin began to draw the blueprints for the construction of the dam, and wrote down the requirements during the construction period in detail. They did not hand it over to Shen Jingcheng until they checked that there were no mistakes and omissions, and they were ready to return to Beijing.

The two rushed over from the capital, plus the busy days in Yuhe County, half a month had passed, Shen Jingcheng naturally couldn't let the two go back empty-handed, but it seemed inappropriate to give money, Gu Jin had already thought about this problem.

It just so happened that the apricots were ripe now, and she had deliberately asked Fu Yu to bring a letter back to Shenjiaao, and asked Zhou Quan and his wife to take some people to make some preserved apricots as soon as possible. She also asked Zhou Quan and his wife to pick out two bags of high-quality dried fruits, plus her own special bath powder and hair cream.

These specially made bath powders and hair creams are exclusively for the nobles, with some precious materials added. A box of them costs more than a dozen taels of silver in the market, and there are also some local specialties that are more readily available.

Zero and zero total, when the two of them were leaving, they pulled nearly a cartful of things.

He Dongzhi and Yuan Shulin felt a little guilty when they saw that Gu Jin had loaded them with nearly a cart full of things.

Although this thing is not silver, the combined value is about the same as the two people's one-year salaries. Not to mention the fresh dried apricots, even the dried fruits that Gu Jin gave are also very expensive in the shop. Can't afford it.

However, Shen Jingcheng still had an embarrassed expression on his face, as if he couldn't get this thing out of his hands, and kept saying: "This is all my own property, it's not worth much, the two senior brothers should not dislike it."

The corners of He Dongzhi and Yuan Shulin's mouths twitched when they heard this, and finally got into the carriage with Shen Jingcheng, Gu Jin, and Jiang Zhengshu off, and left Yuhe County in a daze.

The two of them never expected that they would be given so many things as a favor at the begging of their husband. It only needs to be done once, otherwise they will be guilty of taking these things.

After the two left, the summer harvest in Yuhe County also quietly came to an end, and from this season onwards, the weather will also enter the rainy season.

Shen Jingcheng and Gu Jin come together almost every day to check the weather, and they are worried every day. They are afraid that if it rains heavily, or if it rains upstream, it will not cause floods to destroy the useless dam and destroy them. flooded.

At the same time, Shen Jingcheng had already asked Fu Yu to go back to Qingzhou Mansion to buy a stone mountain, and hired a large number of masons to mine the stones, preparing to start building the embankment as soon as the autumn harvest was over.

While busy with these, Shen Jingcheng pulled Gu Jin and Jiang Shiren, and was still constantly improving various matters related to the construction of the embankment after autumn.

Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng almost opened their eyes, but fortunately, the days were calm and uneventful. Xiao Youping grew up day by day in such an atmosphere. Slowly, he learned to stand up and learn to cry. people accompany.

Gu Jin's side is busy, but Gu Linger's side feels that everything is not going well.

Not for anything else, just because it seems that no matter what she does, the female shopkeeper of this embroidery shop seems to be dissatisfied.

At first, Gu Ling'er felt that she had good eloquence, so she wanted to greet customers and sell things in the front hall.

But in fact, when she faced the classification and quality of various embroidery threads, the names of various embroidery fabrics and fabrics, and the place of origin, her mind suddenly became confused.More importantly, apart from gold and silver thread, she couldn't tell the difference between cotton thread, hemp thread, ply thread, silk thread and other embroidery threads, nor could she tell the advantages and disadvantages of these embroidery threads.

Seeing that she couldn't explain things clearly to others, the female shopkeeper asked someone to teach her, but after teaching her for a long time, she quit before the person who taught her said anything.

There was no other way, so the female shopkeeper asked Gu Linger to follow the embroiderer to learn embroidery. It doesn't matter if she doesn't know how to distinguish the embroidery threads, she should let the other embroiderers share them for her in advance, right?

But no, Gu Linger has a lot of experience in what kind of clothes to dress people up and what kind of things look good, but she is not so good at matching various colors and how to embroider them to look good.

The female shopkeeper was worried when she saw her, so she could only let her take pictures of cats and tigers according to the patterns embroidered by others, but just like this, Gu Linger also forcibly embroidered the vivid flowers into a mess.

The most important thing is that Gu Ling'er couldn't sit still at all, within half an hour, she got up and wandered around, let alone sitting for a long time like other embroiderers.

In the end, the female shopkeeper had no choice but to let her clean.But even for cleaning, Gu Linger often only cleans the places that can be seen by the human eye, and the places that cannot be seen, such as under the counter and the corners, she is as if she is blind, and does not clean at all. .

The female shopkeeper was speechless. She had never seen such an unsteady woman. As long as ordinary women can find a job, who is not diligent and diligent in doing the job at hand, for fear of being fired?This Gu Ling'er is fine, it's fine if she doesn't have aura, she doesn't want to learn yet.It’s fine if you don’t want to learn, and you’re not sure about your work.

But there is no way, this is the person the master put here, she can only bear it again and again, and in the end, she can see nothing but let Gu Linger do whatever she likes.

Gu Linger would do it if she wanted to, and she didn't say anything if she didn't want to. At most, she would have someone clean up the places that Gu Linger hadn't cleaned and missed.

After a long time, Gu Ling'er felt that the female shopkeeper didn't like her, but fortunately, the female shopkeeper didn't say anything about her, so she simply let herself go and did it more perfunctorily.

However, Gu Ling'er felt that her life was not bad.

Although she can't make a lot of money, she is free and has no one to discipline her or restrain her.Gradually, the ambitions in her heart at the beginning were worn away in these days, and she turned into a look of eating and drinking.

Because nobody cared, Gu Ling'er could go anywhere in the embroidery shop. One day she saw an embroiderer in the embroidery room embroidering a robe with Xiangyun and a four-clawed python dragon, and she was a little surprised.

Usually, she has never seen anyone embroider such a pattern.

"What is this?" Gu Ling'er stopped beside the embroiderer with a broom in one hand, and reached out to touch the robe while asking.

Xiu Niang was startled by her movement, and quickly stretched out her hand to block her hand: "Don't touch it blindly, can you afford it if you touch it?"

Gu Ling'er curled her lips when she blocked her, turned her head and swept the floor vigorously as if losing her temper. For a while, some thread ends that the embroiderers usually threw on the ground were immediately swept away by her.

Dogs see people as inferior, and they are all human beings, so who can be more expensive than others.

The embroiderer looked at the threads that had been swept up, and quickly took a piece of clean cloth from the side to cover the robe, and waited until the threads were no longer flying, then lifted the cloth, and continued to sit down and embroider carefully. stand up.

She felt that Gu Ling'er seemed to be suffering from some serious illness, she just didn't work hard, and she would show face to others, if it wasn't for the person left by the master, she would have gone up and tore it up.

And Gu Ling'er didn't know what Xiu Niang was thinking at all, her mind was full of the robe of the four-clawed python dragon she saw just now.

As far as she knows, wearing a dragon pattern like this is usually only worn by royal members.She knew that there was a prince in this Yanzhou mansion, but she still didn't know that this embroidery shop even accepted clothes from the prince's mansion.

Gu Linger's eyes lit up in thought.

She has heard that the prince of Yanzhou mansion is young, and he has lost his wife and has no children. He is still single now. The conditions sound very good, but I don't know what the prince looks like.
