Jinghua Tianjiao

Chapter 276 My Qing Dynasty Dream: Huaer Zuo

The maid named Ling'er was really smart, and she told her all the information she wanted to know.Fabric family?Du Juan couldn't help but feel a little happy. After these two dreams, she still didn't leave the cloth.

"Am I the only one in the house?" Du Juan asked again. In such a big family, she would definitely not be alone like she was in Jinghuafang of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Miss, please don't give me the test. You have forgotten that I just came back from the Ministry of Internal Affairs last night. This time the Ministry of Internal Affairs asked for too much silk fabric. I was busy all night last night, and my wife stayed with me all night. .”

Silk?Du Juan was happy. As expected, she and Silk Art could not escape their relationship. She did not expect that she would continue her dream of Silk Art here.But here, she has parents?I don’t know what to call him. In the dream, Du Juan subconsciously couldn’t call a stranger.

Du Juan thought about it, and the maid urged beside her, "Miss, Ling'er can help you change your clothes and wash up. The master is still waiting for dinner, and he said he would tell you about what he did in Hua'er later."

Now that you're here, just follow the rules here.After several instructions from Ling'er, she took a look in the mirror and found that she was dressed as a young lady here, and she was indeed quite pretty.

The fish sinks and the wild goose falls, which is perfect to use here.Du Juan was admiring herself in the mirror. She had an emerald hairpin in her flat bun, with tassels hanging vertically down her temples. Her hair ornament was a blue flower, which was a bit heavy to wear on her head.Du Juan used her hands to help her, her gentle movements were like spring breeze, like silk ribbon...

Wearing a tight Manchu style cheongsam and a light floral longhua, Du Juan's figure is most prominent.She felt tight all over, and the maid next to her kept cheering, "Miss, you look really good in this cheongsam."

Du Juan has never worn such a tight cheongsam, even in reality.She held her willow-like waist with her hands, which she could hold, but her face was embarrassed, "Ling'er, this can't be done. This cheongsam is too tight, why don't you give me another one?"

"How can this be done, miss." The maid Ling'er refused, "Madam has been sewing this cheongsam all night over the past few days, just for you to wear it when you go to Hua'er to do the work."

"Ah?" Du Juan said
"Oh, miss, hurry up, Butler Guo's breakfast is ready at this time." Ling'er urged again.

"You...have you always been so naughty!" Du Juan smiled and reached out to touch Ling'er's little head, "Are you the only one who knows how to push?"

Ling'er dodged aside and looked at Du Juan, "By the way, this is the style of a young lady! I thought you were pretending when you acted like that just now."

Is this really the case with you?Du Juan didn't believe she still had such a character.

Going to have breakfast, Du Juan deliberately walked behind Ling'er until Ling'er "brought" her to the dining room.As soon as he entered the door, he saw the master and his wife that Ling'er had been talking about sitting at the dining table, waiting for Du Juan.

When she saw these two people, Du Juan couldn't help but call out, "Dad, mother..."

I was worried about strangers just now, but when I saw these two, weren't they the Qing Dynasty version of Du Beijing and Yu Yan?Although they were dressed differently, their faces and facial features were so similar that Du Juan couldn't help but scream.

Ling'er said from the side, "Master, madam, the young lady is here."

When the master saw Du Juan, he said, "Tell me about you. Every time you eat, you take so long. You can't get up early every time. Your mother and I have to wait here for a long time." What are you talking about?" Obviously, Madam was protecting Du Juan.The lady saw Du Juan's tight cheongsam and praised her repeatedly, "This dress is quite suitable. It must be my Juanjuan who looks good in it."

"Thank you, mother." Du Juan was naturally polite.
At the dinner table, the master looked at Du Juan and asked, "How are you preparing for the trip to Hua'er these days? Have you practiced your silk craftsmanship?"

"We're eating, what are you talking about?"

What?Do you need to prepare for going to Hua'er?What should I prepare? What do I know, silk art?Yes, don’t forget this skill.

Seeing Du Juan thinking about it, her mother spoke for her, "We have been cloth artists for generations, and Juanjuan has learned silk art since she was a child. This time the flowers for the Ministry of Internal Affairs are mainly to assist in the completion of the ancestor worship ceremony. We Juanjuan will be fine."

Ancestor worship ceremony?Du Juan didn't know anything about this. It seemed that she had to find the answers to these things by herself.But he didn't want his parents to worry, so he said, "Mom, dad, don't worry. I will try my best this time not to embarrass our Du family."

After hearing this, the master nodded with peace of mind.The mother gave him a white look and said, "You are just waiting for her to say this, right?"

"Sit down and eat, don't stand, Ling'er." The master avoided the topic and said to Ling'er beside him.Du Juan looked at all this. Aren't these the father and mother in reality?Always bickering like this, always so humble.

Her mother was afraid that Du Juan would be wronged, so she hurriedly said, "Juanjuan, you don't need to worry about your father. He has been busy with too many things in the Ministry of Internal Affairs these days, and he can't tell the difference between the inside and the outside here. Alas, I am waiting for this time. Things got much better after the ancestor worship ceremony. We have supplied silk fabrics to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for so many years. It was not easy for your father to establish a relationship with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now that major cloth shops have emerged, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has more choices. You Daddy is worried too."

Dad didn't say anything, but Du Juan took a look and realized that this was indeed the case. They were not the only ones involved in the Qing Dynasty's fabric art industry. There would be competition at any time.

"For this ancestor worship ceremony, the Ministry of Internal Affairs selected many ladies to go to Hua'er to make paintings. Firstly, it was to consolidate the original silk art, and secondly, it was to select talents for the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After this ceremony, those who performed outstandingly You can stay, Juanjuan, this is a rare opportunity for you." Mom said
"I know, mother, I will work hard." Du Juan was happy again: this time in this dream, her skill was silk art.

Seeing that Du Juan was not thinking about anything here, her father was worried, "Don't take it lightly. There are many ladies like you recommended by various governments. It is inevitable that there will be competition among them. Don't get involved." Get in."

"Yes, Juanjuan." Mother said, "For so many years, although your father has been supplying silk fabrics to the Ministry of Internal Affairs all year round, the relationship has been pretty good. But there are also ladies from the royal family coming there, and your father and I are worried about the same. , you have a straightforward temper, I'm afraid you will suffer a loss when the time comes."

Suffer?dispute?Du Juan thought to herself: As it is said in the Qing palace TV series, once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea.Not to mention that her character is not a concubine, but just an unknown lady from an aristocratic family who has learned the silk art, but she has to hide from it.The Qing palace TV series I have watched over the years are a good example, but if I want to go to Huaerzuo, can I really be alone?
In order to reassure her parents, Du Juan also agreed, "I will act carefully."

"Ling'er, you will follow the lady and remind her at all times."

Ling'er put down the bowl and chopsticks and stood up and said, "Master, madam, don't worry. I'll go to Hua'er Zuo and I will take good care of the young lady."
