After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Chapter 477 Lanxin Embroidery Workshop
"The meaning is very simple. He is afraid that you will run away, so he keeps suppressing you and prevents you from getting better embroidery jobs."

"How could it be? I have cooperated with them for so long and trust each other. They are not that kind of people." Xu Lingyan shook her head in disbelief.

"Look, we've been working together for so long, and yet I only give you this little money and won't let you take on better embroidery work. Is it because I'm afraid that you will be too outstanding and take away their glory in the future? Or what? I'll give you more details. I don’t know either.”

"Sister, if you don't believe in your own embroidery skills, you should believe that I opened so many horizons during the more than a month I went to Jiangnan." What's more, there is a huge helper in the world's No. [-] cloth shop, and she has learned a little bit about it.

In addition, the princes, powerful ministers, big businessmen and so on that I came into contact with, the clothes they wore and the things they used, what kind of things didn't have some embroidery on them?

Xu Mengxiao still has a good sense of aesthetics.

"Even compared with those people, my eldest sister, your craftsmanship is not even inferior to theirs, and it can still make people's eyes shine, because your embroidery method is different from theirs. It can be said that you figured it out yourself. Your own unique embroidery method.”

"Not really, it's all thanks to the kindness and nurturing of their embroidery workshop." Xu Lingyan Zhientu reported.

Xu Mengxiao sighed. It was precisely because of this that even though she had seen some signs, she did not expose it to her eldest sister.

But why did she see that the embroidery shop had done some high-quality embroidery work, but only offered her eldest sister such a small amount of money?

If she had never been to Jiangnan, she might not know it. But if she had been to Jiangnan, who wouldn't be able to see some clues from her business perspective?

Yes, her eldest sister is good at embroidery, skilled and talented, and does not need to put in too much effort, but these are all her own efforts, not all taught by their embroidery workshop, and it is not a reason for them to take advantage!

"No matter how great the kindness of knowing someone is, it's just enough. I can't just rely on your good temper and easy talk, eldest sister, to bully you all the time. Do you really have no idea at all?"

Xu Lingyan wriggled her lower lips and frowned slightly. She couldn't help but think of the many problems they had asked her to solve during this period.

It is said that some customers made some difficult requests. They said that only she could complete them and it was her style, so they asked her to help solve them.

But they didn't give her any feedback on the result. Instead, they gave her two taels of silver to express their gratitude.

Xu Lingyan is a person who is easily satisfied and knows how to be grateful. With these two taels of silver, she feels that they are treating her well.

Who would have thought that the unique patterns she had worked so hard to embroider were required not to be repeated, and even to be elegant, magnificent, coquettish but not gaudy, etc.

Once such a pattern is designed, one can be worth five taels of silver. Not to mention her embroidery skills, one is worth ten taels of silver!

She also embroidered four or five pieces of clothing like this, each of which cost her at least ten taels of silver. Lan Xin Embroidery Workshop was quite profitable.

In the end, out of the 50 taels of silver that should have gone to her, only [-] taels of silver were given to her, without any explanation...

Xu Lingyan said something selectively, and her tone was very partial to Lanxin Embroidery Studio, but Xu Mengxiao peeled off the cocoon and suddenly saw their vicious plan!
"Sister, you are so deceptive! I don't believe you are so smart that you don't have any doubts? You are still too emotional. If they don't count on you, I won't say anything to you even if you just repay their lifetime kindness. , but they are simply using you!"

"I believe the clothes you embroidered will turn out very well, otherwise they wouldn't have given you two taels of silver to silence you. They are just afraid that you will find out something and you will cause trouble, otherwise they are afraid that I won’t even give you two taels of silver, I’m just bullying you to talk to you!”

"Ah, what's going on?" Mrs. Wang spends time with her eldest daughter day and night, but she doesn't notice anything about this. "Lingyan, please stop hiding it from us and make it clear. Don't misunderstand me. But if it's like what Xiaoxiao said, you really can't take this job anymore!"

Xu Lingyan was also a little anxious, and even stood up from the chair, pacing back and forth.

"After living in Fucheng, I took over an embroidery job from the embroidery workshop in the town. But when he learned that I had arrived in Fucheng, shopkeeper He said that there were more and better jobs suitable for me in Fucheng. Every time he went to the town It was no longer convenient, so I introduced a person named Mo Guanshi."

"This Manager Mo is the second manager of Lanxin Embroidery Shop in Fucheng. He is very kind and always smiles when he sees people. After seeing my embroidery work, he even doubled the price for me without hesitation!"

"I'm very grateful to him. I've received him two or three times in the past few months. In addition, as I just told you, he asked me to help with embroidery work temporarily."

"Shopkeeper He?" Xu Mengxiao tried his best to recall, but he still had a good impression. He was the shopkeeper of the Lanxin Embroidery Branch in Yunxi Town.

The recommended second manager was from the main store, and must be a more powerful person above him. I wonder if Shopkeeper He knew about her eldest sister's current affairs.

"But no matter what, it was Lan Xin Embroidery Workshop in Yunxi Town who taught you, and it was Shopkeeper He who you have collaborated with and had friendship with for many times. Are you going to transfer your favor and trust another person easily?"

Xu Lingyan's face was hot, "Aren't they all the same? The town is under the jurisdiction of Fucheng, just like your Taoyuan Township. I heard Shopkeeper He say that it was this second manager who asked us to teach us embroidery, otherwise I wouldn't be like this. A way of making money to support the family.”

"It's different. Each store has its own atmosphere. Although it's all about those people, they can't take care of the things below. If you ask me, you just need to be grateful to the master who carefully cultivated you. Others , you have repaid what you should have long ago, how can they repay you with kindness?"

Seeing that she was still a little dissatisfied, Xu Mengxiao persuaded her with reason, "If you take a step back, even if you repay the favor, it's understandable that they open the door for business, but you helped them solve several problems, why didn't you explain the last thing to you? How is the result?"

"Of course, you pick it up again and again, and you finish it again and again, and you can see how satisfied the customers are with your embroidery work, but they refuse to tell you the truth. What are your intentions? I suspect there is something wrong with it. What a doorway."

Xu Mengxiao said the truth and immediately called Ru Yan, "Help me find Zhu Dong and ask him to help me investigate a matter."

"Master, Zhu Dong went to Yao Yu Village to do other things you asked for. If Master has any orders, you can also tell Ru Yan."

Xu Mengxiao looked at her and almost forgot that she was from ANBU when she saw her soft and cute look.

And she was able to be actively recommended by Zhai Shaoxuan to be her maid, which is definitely not what she has seen so far!
"Okay, then go and help me investigate what Lan Xin Embroidery Workshop is doing. Especially in the past two months, my eldest sister has helped them solve the problems raised by several customers. Why did they only get two taels of silver in the end? You Help me find out what’s inside.”

Just as Xu Lingyan was about to stop talking, Xu Mengxiao looked at her sharply, "Sister, in order to facilitate the investigation, can you draw a rough outline of the pattern you embroidered at that time and let Ruyan take a look?"

"That's... okay, but aren't we overthinking it?"

"Sister, I believe in my acumen as a businessman, and when I think about it for a moment, I feel that something is wrong. If I don't figure this out, even if you continue to repay my kindness in the future, you won't be able to repay me."

"Repaying kindness is not endless, and the help they gave you was not unconditional, so you don't need to use so much emotion towards them. If they are good to you, you will be good to them, and they will be good to you. No, you don’t have to worry about old feelings!”
