"We are all like this. We rely on our own efforts to make flowers. Ling'er, you will definitely be able to do it." Du Juan encouraged Ling'er, but she also regretted that her skills were not good. "I just didn't expect that here I would be able to do it." My skills are mediocre, and I’m really afraid that I’ll be a junior and find myself in a position of difficulty in taking on a big job.”

Ling'er immediately said, "Sister, you can't think like that. In my eyes, you are already very good. If you lose confidence, I really don't know who is qualified here. It's okay if you are not good at skills. Isn't my mother going to tell you tomorrow? Take us to see that mysterious man. He is really proficient in painting as I thought, so it would be a blessing for him to give us some pointers. Sister, don’t think so much, everything will get better."

Sure enough, on the second day, after steward Feng took Du Juan and Ling'er out of the bamboo courtyard as promised, they went around to the back of the bamboo courtyard and entered through a small door.The layout of the small door is the same as before, and the entrance and exit are hidden in the bamboo forest.Ling'er couldn't help but ask, "Mom, is this the back door of Zhuyuan? Why don't we go in through the front door?"

"Shh, don't talk so much here." Manager Feng reminded

After entering the small courtyard gate, there is a dark path with flowers and trees on both sides. After looking at it, I have an intuitive feeling of "winding paths leading to a secluded place", but there are some working people on both sides of the path. They have some They were chopping wood on the roadside, and some were sitting on low stools watching the three of them.Du Juan didn't notice anything wrong until a woman carrying a bamboo basket came towards her. Wasn't this the maid from before?

"Why is she here?" Du Juan murmured to herself, "She is not responsible for guarding the bamboo courtyard? How come she appears at the back door?"

Manager Feng said, "She is the maid of that mysterious man, so she will naturally appear here. So... do you know who the person you are going to meet this time is?"

After Manager Feng finished speaking, Du Juan broke into a cold sweat. Could it be that, as she had guessed before, there were others living in the bamboo courtyard?However, judging from what Guanshi Feng said, the identity of this mysterious man is not simple.

At the end of the path is a courtyard that looks like a woodshed. The courtyard is surrounded by low fences and is filled with colorful flowers. Before reaching the house, the fragrance of the flowers has already hit your nose. It is really a "woodhouse". "Deep flowers and trees." I didn't expect there to be such a place behind the bamboo courtyard. Who could have such elegance?
The footsteps of the three people disturbed the people in the courtyard, and they saw a man with long braids and blue plain clothes walking outside the courtyard.When he saw Steward Feng, he asked directly, "Is the person in front of me the Steward Feng made by Hua'er?"

"My Hua'er is Feng Wuhua. Please see Lord Baylor." Du Juan and Ling'er almost didn't react when Guanshi Feng knelt down.Du Juan was even more surprised: Good guy, can you really meet Lord Baylor here?Is it possible that the dramas of those Qing palace dramas are going to happen to me?No, then could this be the story of an embroiderer and the prince made by a flower?
No no no!What are you thinking? This is simply impossible to happen.But the moment she knelt down, Du Juan couldn't help but look at Lord Baylor. He was seven feet tall and his appearance was even more extraordinary. No, why did he look like the same person?Yes, he looks a lot like Liu Tian. How could it not be such a coincidence?

"Get up!" Mr. Baylor sounded a little unhappy. Du Juan took a closer look and saw that this man was staring at her. Seeing Du Juan's eyes dodge, he said, "Manager Feng, you brought these two here. people?"

There was no room for Du Juan and Ling'er to talk on this occasion. Ling'er thought that even though she was following the Du family, she would be well-informed, but she didn't expect that her mother would bring her here to see Master Baylor. After a while, she Even more silent.

Manager Feng continued to reply, "Back to Mr. Beile, this is Du Juan from the Du Mansion, who is also currently waiting to be selected to work in Hua'er, and this is the little daughter Ling'er."

"Oh. That's right." Lord Beile said directly, "Then how is this different from the two people you brought before? Is it possible that one is your daughter and the other is your daughter's friend?" Lord Beile said in one breath. Knowing the relationship between Du Juan and Ling'er, Manager Feng thought to himself: Sure enough, Lord Baylor has made all preparations long ago, and there is no way he can hide anything.

Manager Feng replied, "Back to Mr. Beile, the two I brought earlier and Du Juan were the three who stood out in this silk man competition. The younger daughter Ling'er only loves silk art. At the beginning of this ancestor worship ceremony, she I am studying with Du Juan, and I want to take the two of them there this time because I want to ask Lord Beile for some advice, and I hope Lord Beile can give me some advice."

Mr. Beile shouted into the room, "Here comes someone." Then a maid came over with a wooden box. When she opened it, she found that it was a Peking Opera silk figure made by Du Juan.Du Juan was shocked: I...why are my things here?Could it be Manager Feng?

I only heard Lord Beile say, "Guard Feng, this silk item was delivered to me by you. It is the same as the previous two items. But there is something different on this silk item."

After speaking, Mr. Baylor looked at Du Juan and asked seriously, "Du Juan, did you do this? How did you come up with the idea of ​​using Peking Opera costumes as clothes for the silk figures?"

"I..." Du Juan was speechless for a moment. How should I answer this? I can't say that I came up with the idea because I went to watch Peking Opera with my parents?Forget it, let's tell the truth, "Returning to Mr. Beile, my daughter came up with this idea because she went to the Grand Theater to watch a play, so she wanted to try it, and that's why she made the Peking Opera Silk Man."

Mr. Beile nodded, and then said, "Well, your idea is very good, but do you know that Xiao Wang has always been deeply interested in Peking Opera? Do you think you are following his fancy?"

Sure enough, the Qing palace was full of such calculations.Du Juan thought: Is this a sudden inspiration?What on earth is this Mr. Baylor thinking?

"Master Beile, I have no intention of following anyone's wishes. I just want to have my own ideas on the original silk figures. The Huiban's entry into Beijing is a big event and is worthy of being recorded in history. I want to use this method, Let everyone remember the Huiban coming to Beijing." Du Juan replied

Lord Beile put away the wooden box, raised his hand, and his maid took it back.Then he smiled and said, "Guanshi Feng, all the apprentices under you have their own opinions. That's good, Hua'er Zuo needs people like this. Du Juan has her own ideas, and she will definitely make some achievements in Hua'er Zuo." ."

"Thank you for your compliments, Mr. Beile." Manager Feng said, "I know that Mr. Beile has been focusing on silk products for many years. When you were working in Hua'er, you led us to make many objects. They all say that you are ingenious and ingenious. , so I brought Du Juan and my daughter here this time because I also want you to give me some advice."

When it came to the main topic, Lord Beile was a little bit flinched, "You want to give me advice? I don't know if the two of them have talent. Manager Feng, although the two people you brought before won the ranking in this competition, Xiao Wang Look at the two of them, the one who has real skills has no patience, and the one who has patience has no skills at all. In the Qing Dynasty nowadays, there are very few skilled craftsmen, and most of them are just looking for fame."
