Chapter 3 The First Talent Show

Thinking that he was very kind to her mother and daughter, Yun Xi couldn't bear it, so she walked up and bowed to Chu Jinfu: "If you dare to ask the young lady what kind of embroidery patterns you want, Yun Xi will also draw some, maybe It can meet the requirements of the young lady!"

Hearing Yunxi's words, the mother-in-law who was beside Chu Jinfu smiled contemptuously: "It's a big tone, our young lady married from the provincial capital, and I haven't seen any new tricks before, you wild girl really don't know the heights of the sky and the earth .”

Chu Jinfu raised her hand to stop the mother-in-law's words, and said: "I didn't know that Miss Xi still knows how to draw embroidery patterns, so you might as well wait a little longer to pick up the brand. Well, if Miss Xi draws well, I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver. If it's not good, it will delay my celebration of my grandmother's birthday, not only will I smash the store, but I will never let you go."

"As for the request, the embroidery pattern I want is also very simple. Next month is my grandmother Mrs. Chu's [-]th birthday, so I, as a granddaughter, will naturally have to give a generous gift. Everything else is easy to say, but the second screen is missing. Just press this drawing."

After Chu Jinfu finished speaking, Shi Shiran sat down and only stared at Yun Xi's every move with her eyes, wanting to see what she, a country girl, could draw.

Shopkeeper Zhou didn't believe that Yunxi could draw any new tricks, but the matter had come to this point, so he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and ordered someone to bring charcoal sticks and white paper according to Yunxi's request.

Junxi tried the feel of the hand, but it was not as smooth as the pencil she used in her previous life, but time was tight, so she could only try it reluctantly. The memories of Magu Xianshou, Songhe Xiangyun, Songbai Evergreen, etc. Various embroidery samples of various collections of longevity characters.

Using charcoal as a pen to walk on the paper, Yunxi has been completely immersed in her own painting world, unaware that the people in the shop have been stunned by her skilled brushwork and the figure that seems to be carrying the holy light, and even more so. I don't know that on the second floor of Yunshang Pavilion, the handsome narrow eyes are also staring at her, and the eyes are full of probing interest.

Jun Xilian drew three pictures and stopped, only to feel the silence around her.

She was wondering when suddenly thunderous applause broke out from the crowd.

Shopkeeper Zhou also shook his beard with a smile: "I really didn't expect Miss Xi to have such abilities, it really opened my eyes." Then he ordered the assistant to present the embroidery pattern in front of Chu Jinfu.

Chu Jinfu looked at the embroidery patterns on the tray, and her face gradually became more serious. She was obviously very satisfied with the embroidery patterns painted by Yun Xi, but she refused to admit defeat: "It's just that the old look has changed some details, and it's not too bad. Sample."

The people around suddenly started talking.

"It's just not bad. If you don't want it, young mistress, I'll buy it."

"This is obviously bullying Miss Xi, who can find fault with such a good embroidery."

"I think she is purely nitpicking."

"That's right, that's right, she's a girl from a rich family, she's really small."

Seeing the public outrage aroused, Chu Jinfu panicked, looked at her husband, but saw Yang Zhang staring at Yun Xi with shock, but with uncontrollable admiration and admiration in his eyes.

Chu Jinfu was out of breath, and couldn't help calling out: "Mr. Xiang!"

Only then did Yang Zhang realize that the faces of the people around him were full of anger. He knew that he had lost his lord today.

So Yang Zhang quickly picked out Magu Xianshou and Xianhe Xiangyun and wanted to order shopkeeper Zhou to make a screen. A clear voice came from the room on the second floor: "Miss Xi's embroidery sample is 100 taels, shopkeeper Zhou. If you put It’s sold cheap, so pack up and go.”

Everyone raised their heads, but they didn't know that the voice came from that room.

Hearing this voice, shopkeeper Zhou quickly cupped his hands and answered yes, then he personally picked up the tray containing the embroidery samples from the table and said to Yang Zhang and Chu Jinfu: "I think you two have heard what our boss said. If you are not satisfied, You can look elsewhere."

"My boss?" Chu Jinfu became furious, "What is he, but a mediocre businessman, how can he compare with the Chu family? See if I don't tell my father to seal your shop when I go home."

"Oh?" There was another sneer from the second floor, "I want to know, but I'm just a concubine of the Chu family, how can I seal up my shop?" Obviously she dismissed Chu Jinfu's threats.

Chu Jinfu hated people mentioning her concubine status the most. Now that the mysterious man mentioned it, she was so angry that she wanted to order the servants to destroy the shop.

But Yang Zhang is a smart person after all, and knows the current affairs best.Hearing what the mysterious man said, he knew that this person might not be someone he could offend, so he forced his family to help Chu Jinfu into the carriage, but he bowed deeply and said, "I am not strict in discipline, and I have made my wife rude. When you show up and see, let me make an apology in person."

After waiting for a while, seeing that there was no sound from the second floor, Yang Zhang had no choice but to leave in embarrassment, leaving 20 taels of silver as an apology.When going out, Yang Zhang turned his head and took a fixed look at Yunxi, his eyes were full of exploration and desire, which made Yunxi feel like he was being targeted.

The protagonist left, and the onlookers also slowly dispersed.Shopkeeper Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and solemnly thanked Yun Xi: "Miss Xi, thanks to you."

Jun Xi hurriedly dodged and helped the shopkeeper Zhou: "Uncle Zhou, this is what I should do. You don't need to be so polite. Besides, it's not my credit, it's only because of your boss's words that it works."

Shopkeeper Zhou smiled and didn't say much, obviously he didn't want to continue this topic, and then he brought two silver tickets from the back hall and said: "According to what our boss said, Miss Xi's embroidery pattern is 500 taels of silver, which is 500 taels. Pay the girl."

Looking at the banknotes in the hands of shopkeeper Zhou, Yunxi was stunned. Her mother worked hard for several days to sell three taels of silver, and she actually earned 300 taels by drawing three paintings.

Thinking of this, Yunxi quickly declined and said: "This is too much, it's not worth it. I'll take it back so I don't want to scare my mother."

Shopkeeper Zhou thought for a while, and said, "Miss Xi, it's not safe to hold these, so I'll leave them with me first, and I'll give them to your mother when the time is right." Then, he asked the clerk to weigh 20 taels of silver for Yunxi to let her bring home.

Seeing that the patterns she drew were popular, Junxi was very happy in her heart, and felt that if she could make money with this craft in the future, her mother would not have to work so hard.

So Yunxi asked: "Uncle Zhou, can I still provide you with embroidery samples in the future?"

Shopkeeper Zhou said with a smile: "That's really what I wish for. I won't treat Miss Xi badly. If the sale is good, I will give the girl extra rewards. But the girl's embroidery can only be sold to me."

Junxi knew that shopkeeper Zhou was very kind despite being a businessman, so she readily agreed.

Today is considered to have made a lot of money. Youdao means that you have money in your hands and don’t panic in your heart. Yunxi decided to reward herself first and improve her family life.

Thinking of her mother's patched clothes, Yun Xi went to the cloth shop to pick out two bolts of cloth, and then went to the butcher's shop to generously pick a piece of good pork belly, ready to go home for her mother to make braised pork for herself.Thinking back on the pain of not eating meat for several months, Yunxi felt that she had a good meal tonight.

A slender man on the second floor of the Yunshang Pavilion watched Yun Xi's cheerful back disappear at the end of the alley, and then ordered: "Mu Yi, check!" The clear voice was just like the person who raised Yun Xi's status just now.

"Yes!" The black shadow that appeared out of nowhere agreed and disappeared.

In the room, a pair of slender, white but well-knit hands are holding the painting of Magu's birthday that Yun Xigang painted.

 The newcomer is cute, welcome to watch and click!
