Hearing this, Jiang Wan also covered her mouth and laughed.
”Do you have any other new flowers?” Seeing that she and Jiang Wan had already started talking, Zhao Su Niang decided not to beat around the bush anymore, ”Last time, I embroidered a bunch of small items according to the flower design you gave me and sent it to the embroidery manor. Aunt He said that it was very popular, but it only took a few days to sell it all, so she asked if I could embroider another batch …”
The flower you drew me was still a bit complicated, and it would take a bit of time to sew it up, so I thought I could streamline it a bit, but the new stuff was always a little unsatisfactory.” As she said that, Zhao Su Niang took out a few pieces of handkerchief from her sewing basket. She saw that the one embroidered on them was the flower that Jiang Wan had previously painted for her.
Jiang Wan took the handkerchief and glanced at it, then immediately understood.
When she was bored by the Grand Concubine's boredom in her previous life, she had used the geometric symmetry of modern mathematics to compose those flowers, which was why they seemed especially grand and steady.
However, Zhao Su Niang didn't understand these things.
”Is it simpler?” Jiang Wan slightly frowned, ”But it's possible, it might take a bit of time.”
”No rush.” When Zhao Su Niang heard Jiang Wan's response, her tensed heart also relaxed. She smiled and said, ”The day of the Qin Sky Fortress won't be set so early.”
Hearing this, Jiang Wan blushed again.
In the evening, the Qin family used the excuse that they didn't feel well, and once again spared Jiang Wan from paying respects.
After dinner, after washing up, Jiang Wan lit a lamp and took up the flower shape to study it alone.
As for Clove, Jasmine, and Mama Han, they still had not recovered from their excitement from the day. Their Fourth Young Miss was finally going to be married off!
Seeing that Jiang Wan had nothing better to do at all, they gathered in their own bedrooms, thinking to help Jiang Wan make a few more close-fitting clothes and shoes.
Jiang Wan draped a thin gown over her shoulders as she sat at the window, letting her long, wrung hair fall behind her head after washing it dry. Then she held a brush and lightly sketched it out on the white paper, and only after the sound of a drum could be heard outside the window did she unwillingly put down the brush in her hand and rub her somewhat sore arms.
”Next time, I might be so focused.” Xiao Rui's respectful voice appeared in the room without any warning, startling Jiang Wan.
”When did you arrive?” Jiang Wan caressed her chest that was thumping wildly, looking at Xiao Rui with a slightly reprimanded gaze.
”I've been here for a long time.” Xiao Rui looked at Jiang Wan with dissatisfaction, and took her arm to help her knead it, ”In the end, even I was about to fall asleep, and this person couldn't discover me …”
Hearing that, Jiang Wan's face turned slightly red.
”Promise me you won't do this again in the future.” Xiao Rui picked her up and sat her down on his lap, then gently caressed Jiang Wan's face, ”It hurts your bright eyes, my heart will ache for you.”
Although the two of them had done this intimate action more than once in their past life, Jiang Wan still blushed.
She lowered her head and replied softly. She wanted to get off Xiao Rui's legs, but Xiao Rui held her waist. After the two of them shook and squirmed, Jiang Wan suddenly didn't dare to move.
She felt like there was something … Meeting me …
As someone who had experienced it in her past life, she immediately realized what it was.
She whispered, ”Let me down.”
”Wan Wan, don't move!” On the other hand, Xiao Rui didn't let go and hugged her even more tightly.
The atmosphere between the two had become delicate.
”Tomorrow, the palace will assign a guide aunt to come …” Xiao Rui couldn't help but change the topic.
