Chapter 136 (1/2)
”It's Caiqing girl!” Zhang Qing's smile came up. She opened a shop outside, using her mother's surname.
It was Cai Qing, the maid beside Zhao Su Niang. She put the cloth bag on the counter and opened it with a smile. She said, ”my aunt has studied several new flower patterns these days. Do you want to take them?”
”Take it! Take it When Zhang Qing's family saw Caiqing, they couldn't close their mouths with laughter. Their aunt's savvy is better than that of ordinary people's daughter-in-law. She can understand some things just by mentioning them a little. She must be a knowledgeable person, but she doesn't know how to be an aunt.
”Why don't you talk to your aunt and give me a set of embroidery according to the design and color? I'll take it as the treasure of the town. ” Zhang Qing's family took the opportunity to encourage her. She wanted them to help with a whole set of embroidery a long time ago, just because the previous embroidery method was too cumbersome and the construction period was too long. Neither she nor her aunt could afford it.
But now this kind of embroidery can be finished in two or three days, which enlivens her mind that she had given up before.
”I'm afraid I'll have to go back and discuss it with my aunt.” Caiqing said with a puzzled face that since the fourth and fifth ladies of the family got married, the wife who had nothing to do all day would try every means to find out her aunt's fault, saying that lighting the lamp at night costs wax, and she would not be allowed to light the lamp after Xu Shi.
This is because the sun is long in summer. My aunt can embroider a little more at dawn. I really don't know what to do after this summer.
”That's OK. You go back to discuss with your aunt and say what aunt he said. If you take this job, I'll give you 20% more for everything.” Zhang Qing's family stretched out two fingers and shook them in front of Caiqing, which made Caiqing very excited.
”Well, I'll go back and talk to my aunt first.” Caiqing nodded and settled accounts with Zhang Qing's family.
As soon as they cleared up their money and goods, they saw a man dressed up as a little boy from a big family come panting.
”Zhang Qing's, Zhang Qing's, come back with me quickly, madam is looking for you.” The little guy stood there with his waist crossed and his back bowed, out of breath.
Zhang Qing's family looked at Caiqing awkwardly. After seeing that the other side had no reaction, he said to the boy, ”did you say anything?”
”No!” The lad shook his head like a rattle, ”they just let me tell you to go back.”
The boy was only working in the outer yard, and he didn't know what happened in the inner yard. He just saw many servants coming out of the inner yard with silver ingots. They were talking and laughing all the way, so he guessed: ”I see they all came out with money reward. Maybe the house is paying money reward!”
”What's the reward for this festival?” Zhang Qing's is also a strange way.
”Then I don't know.” The boy said with a smile, ”anyway, my sister came back with a silver coin of five Liang. She said it was awarded by my wife. She said she would keep it for me to buy sugar.”
”What did you say? Five, two, one? ” The startled way of the Qing family
.
She sweeps the land in the palace for a month, which is only two liang of silver. Usually, she gives a reward of eight cents at most. When did she give a reward of five liang?
No, she can't lose here!
