Beauty Sihuanian

Chapter 184

In the past, she also felt that it was impossible to re-open a kiln to make colored glaze, but the facts have proved that as long as you spend a lot of manpower and material resources to master the materials and craftsmanship, there is nothing you can't do. There are a lot of these two kinds of shops in the embroidery workshop, and Song Yuxi took Fu Bo to visit a few of them in the past two days, and he always felt that they were not satisfactory.

However, she was asked the location of a secluded embroiderer. It is said that this embroiderer had retired from the clothing bureau in the palace. After searching all over the east and west of the city, after her unremitting efforts, she finally found the address of this embroiderer in Mao'er Lane in Shoes and Hats Alley in the west of the city. However, it was not a coincidence that she came here. ...It's not what Song Yuxi imagined.

Pushing open the courtyard door, a white-haired old lady was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun. She was skinny and looked at least 80 years old. There were white films in her eyes. The neighbor told Song Yuxi that the old lady's eyes had been damaged for several years. She was blind before, and she has no children, and only a little grand-niece from a distant house under her knees. When she left the palace, she was already 60 years old. It happened that her relatives were not rich and wanted to sell a daughter. Poor her That child was taken back home and raised as a daughter. Later, when the child grew up and married, she still insisted on coming back to visit her every three days.

Song Yuxi searched for a long time full of hope, but she found such a result. She couldn't hide her disappointment, so she asked her neighbor if their house still had embroidery, and the neighbor told her that it used to be embroidery, but after the girl got married, Her man was a gambler, plundered the money of the two families, and made the old lady blind from crying. Since then, there has been no embroidery.

While talking, the neighbor pointed to the alley and said, "Look, the daughter of this family is back. It's also pitiful. Her man likes to gamble and drink, and when he loses the bet, he goes back to beat people when he gets drunk. Her that The mother-in-law is not a good thing, and she will suffer there!"

Song Yuxi looked in the direction pointed by the neighbor, and she saw a skinny young woman walking towards her. She was wearing coarse linen clothes, her face was quite pale, and a bamboo basket was hanging on her arm. The basket was covered with a red cloth. Greeting her neighbor in a low voice, she seemed a little shy. Song Yuxi didn't see the injury on her face until she approached. The corners of her eyes and mouth were all bruised.

Seeing Song Yuxi and the others standing at the door, the young woman looked up at her. Song Yuxi only felt that she had seen this woman somewhere before, but she couldn't remember it for a while. The woman walked up to the threshold with her head down, took two steps, and then stopped Steps, turned to look at Song Yuxi, hesitated for a moment, then walked down the steps, came to Song Yuxi, and said:
"It's you."

Song Yuxi felt baffled, Uncle Fu and Lin Fan also looked at Song Yuxi in surprise, but Song Yuxi was a little confused, pointing at herself and asking, "Do you know me?"

The young woman showed a rare smile on her face and said, "You were the one who saved me last time on the street, otherwise I would have been beaten to death by my mother-in-law."

When she said this, Song Yuxi had a vague impression. That day she saw an old woman chasing a young woman and beating her on the street. The stick hit the young woman until her head was bleeding, so she didn't stop. Song Yuxi couldn't see it, so she leaned forward. At that time, Xiao Qihuan who met, in fact, in the final analysis, it should be Xiao Qihuan who saved her.

Seeing that Song Yuxi seemed to remember, the young woman pointed to the door of her house and said:
"This is my natal family, if you don't mind Miss, come in and have a cup of tea."

A group of people were invited in out of nowhere. The young woman first walked into the yard and said loudly in the old woman's ear: "Auntie, I'm back and I brought you something to eat. I'll get the bowl. You wait."

He asked Song Yuxi and the others to sit down, and then walked to the kitchen on the east side of the yard, saying, "Miss, don't be surprised, my aunt is old, her ears are not good, her voice is not loud, she can't hear."

Song Yuxi nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay."

The young woman went in and out two or three times, holding the chopsticks, the bowl and the chopsticks. After finally delivering both the bowl and the chopsticks to the old woman, she picked up the broom and talked to Song Yuxi, While starting to sweep the floor, it was too busy.

But she said: "Miss, please forgive me, I can only stay here for half an hour. If the time is too long, my mother-in-law and husband-in-law should be angry again. Therefore, these tasks can only be done quickly."

Song Yuxi glanced at Lin Fan behind him, and Lin Fan understood what she meant, and took two servants to take the broom from the young woman's hand, saying that they were sweeping the yard for her, and asked her to go and talk to the young lady.

Seeing Song Yuxi and the others standing at the door, the young woman knew that she must be busy, wiped her hands on the apron, and then walked in front of Song Yuxi. Song Yuxi asked her to sit down too, and then said straight to the point :

"You don't have time, so I won't chatter with you. I came here today for a kind of embroidery. I heard that your aunt is an embroiderer who retired from the palace. She is very good at craftsmanship. At such an advanced age, you are her grandniece, I would like to ask you, can you embroider? If you can, come and do things for me, I will not treat you badly. "
