Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 70

After they really believed it, they started to strike up a conversation with Jiang—although they didn't necessarily want to make friends with her, maybe they just looked at the master's face. It's not good to be too indifferent to the guests.

When Xu Manzhen heard this, she couldn't help but sigh, everyone in this world is so realistic.

But fortunately, she finally borrowed the power of the Meng Mansion.As long as the Jiang family doesn't sit alone until the end, then there will be something to talk about when we go back today.Xu Shixun couldn't do well, so he crossed the river and took the ladder, and sent Jiang's family back to the small Buddhist hall.Now this situation can be regarded as the realization of one of his goals.

After the banquet, every lady who gave a gift, the Meng Mansion also returned a gift, such as a handkerchief, a purse, and the like, which were not valuable things, but just a wish.

Only Xu Manzhen, what she got was a small sachet made by Meng Liya herself. The flowers on it were very delicately embroidered... It was even more delicate than the gifts of most people who gave gifts today. The incense stuffed inside is also a relatively rare spice. Although Xu Manzhen doesn't like this stuff, she still knows what people want.

"Miss, this sachet is so beautiful." My lady got it well, and her maid was naturally overwhelmed with joy, and couldn't get enough of the sachet.

"Help me put it on, and then talk about it in the mansion." Xu Manzhen smiled slightly and said to the two maids.

"Yes." Both Bai Xin and Jiang Gui happily agreed.Bai Xin is what Miss says and what she does, and she rarely bothers to think about why.Jiang Gui, on the other hand, understood her deep meaning, so she was even happier.

Sure enough, Xu Manzhen's achievements in the Meng Mansion this time made many people in the mansion jealous.The Fourth Aunt gritted her teeth with hatred, Xu Yingzhen felt very wronged for Xu Shuzhen, and even Xu Shixun, when he heard that his wife was very popular with the other wives at the banquet, he also pondered a little.

Xu Manzhen guessed correctly, originally he planned to let her go back to practice in the house next door when Jiang came back from the banquet... But he didn't expect that she would be welcomed by those wives.

It's really strange, those ladies are all human beings, why would they make friends with her?But the people he sent also proved that this is indeed true.

After thinking about it again and again, Xu Shixun finally decided that the Jiang family did not need to practice anymore. The reason was that her practice was quite fruitful, and she could stay in the mansion in the future. In addition, when the son grew up, he needed his mother to pick a wife for him. .

"You succeeded!" Xu Dahong rushed to One Leaf Garden immediately, looked at Xu Manzhen in surprise, and said, "I really didn't expect things to develop like this, and you succeeded!" Manzhen really rescued her mother. !Mother no longer has to go back to the cold house next door to practice. This is something he has been looking forward to for so many years, but for so many years, no matter how many ways he has tried, he has never succeeded.

Unexpectedly, it was just a small banquet, but my sister did it.Thinking about it again, how much effort Manzhen put in for that painting, he also felt sad, no success is easy to achieve.

"It's just the first step of success, and it's still far away from real success." Xu Manzhen gave him a happy look, "It's less rare and more strange. If it wasn't for your help this time, I really don't have confidence." After all, Xu Shixun was at that time No matter what, Jiang Shi would not be allowed to go to the banquet.

If it wasn't for Xu Dahong's special support, so what if she decides what to do?She is always just a woman, and women's opinions are often not considered in this era.

Xu Dahong laughed and said, "If you weren't so determined at that time, I wouldn't be able to help you if I wanted to..." Mother really came out... It's so good.

"It would be great if mother could take care of housework sometime." Xu Manzhen said with a soft sigh.Now the fourth aunt is in charge of everything in the mansion, but it has made her suffer.

She put in so much effort to rescue Jiang, why?Isn't it for the sake of making my life easier in the future?

However, now that the Jiang family has come out, the family affairs are still in the hands of Fourth Aunt... This is really troublesome enough.It stands to reason that now that the mistress no longer needs to cultivate, the concubine who is temporarily in charge of the housework should take the initiative to hand over the power of the housekeeper.

But her housekeeper was appointed by Xu Shixun, as long as Xu Shixun doesn't say a word, Fourth Aunt would be happy to play dumb.

However, it is not convenient for the Jiang family to come forward to ask for such a matter.If you talk about it, it will bring up the things of the year.

"Don't worry, you have to eat food bite by bite, and you have to walk step by step." Xu Dahong comforted her, "Mother can come out, which is the greatest victory. The power of housekeeper, there will always be a day when it will be handed over."

Xu Manzhen could only nod slightly.Now I can only think so.As long as Si Yiniang doesn't make a big mistake, she really can't do anything, I just hope that Si Yiniang can make a big fool out of her as soon as possible.

However, even if she doesn't take the initiative to stun, can't she still help out...

As soon as the banquet was over, the women's school classes returned to normal. The gentlemen taught and studied as usual, while the students studied and slept as usual.

There is only one class except Mr. Huang's embroidery.She had made up her mind a long time ago that she would punish one of these three students.

Xu Manzhen entered the classroom, saw Mr. Huang sitting on it, and was still wondering why Mr. Huang didn't bring her embroidery frame?But out of habit, he yawned again, lay down and fell asleep.

"Today I will introduce the basics of embroidery and stitching." Mr. Huang walked to Xu Manzhen's side and said in a deep voice.The last time she handed in such an ugly purse, Xu Shixun also had a problem with his teaching - after so many years of teaching, students can't even embroider the most common purse...Mandarin ducks are embroidered into ducks, what is this? What kind of technology?

But God knows, what did Xu Manzhen hear in her class?
Xu Manzhen was frightened by her, why didn't she embroider and came to her side?What is this for?She woke up suddenly, and the drowsiness disappeared without a trace.

"Xu Manzhen, your homework today is to embroider a plum blossom with uniform stitches... This is very simple, right? If you don't finish the embroidery, you are not allowed to leave today, and I will accompany you." Mr. Huang said to Xu Manzhen indifferently Said.

What, you won't be allowed to go back until the embroidery is finished?What stimulated Mr. Huang?Xu Manzhen was dumbfounded.

Qi stitching... what is that?The previous life was a commodity society, as long as she had money, she could buy almost anything, she had hardly even picked up a needle, and in this life, she hadn't studied these things much.

Then Mr. Huang explained the Qi needling method very seriously.Among the three, Xu Shuzhen didn't need to study any more, so she did her best to complete the homework assigned to her by Mr. Huang, while Xu Yingzhen was similar to Xu Manzhen, both of whom were very poor at embroidery, so she followed Xu Manzhen to learn all the stitches and used them together. Embroidered plum blossoms with the same stitch method.

Seeing that Mr. Huang was convulsed by some stimulus, Xu Manzhen was very helpless.But she had no choice but to listen, so she could only use her chicken-claw-like right hand to hold the needle awkwardly and embroider plum blossoms on the embroidery shed.

A plum blossom looks small, but it takes a lot of effort to embroider it. Xu Manzhen kept looking at Mr. Huang with a bitter face.

Mr. Huang stood behind Xu Manzhen and watched for a long time, and he didn't speak a word, but finally couldn't help it, and asked her: You can't even hold a needle, who embroidered that handkerchief last time? "

Of course Xu Manzhen knew that it was impossible to hide this matter, so she could only point to Jiang Gui.Mr. Huang sighed and said: "If you want someone else's replacement, can't you find a better one?" He just handed over such an ugly handkerchief, which made him feel sad.

"You practice together too." Mr. Huang glanced at Jiang Gui lightly and said.

Jiang Gui's face flushed red.Last time, I blamed myself for my self-assessment and smart behavior...but now I am blamed by Mr. Huang again.

After Mr. Huang finished speaking, he went to Xu Yingzhen's place again, and watched Xu Yingzhen grit her teeth and struggle hard with an extremely small embroidery needle.

"Look at your third sister," Mr. Huang wanted to get serious, but he was very serious, deliberately provoking Xu Yingzhen, "The flowers she embroiders are so beautiful, but you can't even get a decent handkerchief..."

Xu Yingzhen curled her lips and ignored her.It's only natural that the third sister embroiders well.

Mr. Huang went on to say: "I think your second sister's flowers are already better than yours."

As expected, Xu Yingzhen felt as if she had been beaten into a chicken blood, she immediately became excited, put down her needlework, and ran over to watch Xu Manzhen's homework.

Xu Manzhen is very helpless, Mr. Huang, Mr. Huang, it is your business if you want to teach your courses well. As a student, I have already cooperated with you very much... But can you pretend to be able to play such a trick?General?But don't use yourself as a cutie, okay?
After the first plum blossom with neat stitches came out of the oven, Xu Manzhen was not satisfied when she looked left and right, but after one flower came out, she finally became familiar with the neat stitches, so she embroidered the second one.

Although the second flower was much stronger than the first flower, it was still not enough, so she embroidered the third flower.

Until the end of the embroidery class, Xu Manzhen embroidered a total of fifteen plum blossoms, but none of them could satisfy her, and none of them looked like plum blossoms.

Mr. Huang came over and looked at the results of Xu Manzhen's class.

But Xu Manzhen made her eat so much that she actually embroidered five flowers.When did Xu Manzhen delve into it like this?

Mr. Huang watched the structure of these five flowers carefully, finally heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "Okay, you pass the test." Although none of the flowers embroidered like a pattern, but the stitching method is really well mastered Yes, but it lacks spirituality and looks dumb.

Xu Manzhen was greatly relieved.

Mr. Huang went to check Xu Yingzhen's homework again.Xu Yingzhen naturally didn't have the perseverance like Xu Manzhen, she just embroidered one flower and left it alone.Mr. Huang looked at the plum blossom, his face became darker the more he looked at it, and finally he said with a serious face: "You can't do it, embroider it again, when you finish it, you can leave school."

Mr. Huang's words stunned Xu Yingzhen.What does this mean, the flower embroidered by myself is not good?Is it really worse than Xu Manzhen's?
It was true that day, Xu Yingzhen was kept. Although Mr. Huang's expression was faint, his attitude was very firm. He stayed here all the time, leaving no chance for Xu Yingzhen who wanted to sneak away, so he had to be honest and embroidered. Get up the flowers.

Moreover, not only Mr. Huang's attitude has changed, but other gentlemen's attitudes have also undergone very strange changes. Women's courses are no longer as easy to waste time as before, but you must listen to the lectures in the morning and be serious. to practice.Although it is not like Mr. Huang, who cannot complete the homework and will be detained, but it is true that the homework must be completed every day.

For a moment, Xu Manzhen and Xu Yingzhen cried out in agony.Not being able to sleep in class...it's really unacceptable.

But this is still beneficial, that is, Xu Manzhen's compulsory courses for these ancient women have made great progress.In fact, as long as you really learn it and put in the effort, there is nothing difficult.For example, Xu Manzhen memorized the basic acupuncture techniques.
