Every time the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion comes over, he brings a lot of gadgets.
Mrs. Wen, Sister-in-law Qiong, Hui Niang and others also made some odds and ends for her, and there was a basket of all kinds of sachets.
At this moment, she took them all out.
There were little running carriages, toy rabbits with ruby eyes sewn on them, and sachets to throw. It didn't take long for the little girls to arouse their emotions and have fun.
The little girls have been warned too many times by their families, saying that Jiayin is the princess, and they cannot bully Jiayin, hurt Jiayin, or...
As time goes by, they become afraid to approach Jiayin, and occasionally look at her from a distance. Afraid of being blamed.
Unexpectedly, after playing with Jiayin for a while today, I felt that Jiayin was so good.
So, one invited Jiayin to dig vegetables together, and the other invited Jiayin to dance with rubber bands.
Jiayin didn't want to coax her children every day, so she quickly laid out the lessons she wanted to learn.
Reading and needlework were fine, but when the little girls heard the good news and asked Zhang Shen to teach medicine and pharmacology, they were extremely sympathetic.
They had never been to the small courtyard behind the village, but they had heard the screams coming from there.
Jiayin actually wants to go to such a terrible place. It's so amazing and so difficult!
Needless to say, Jiayin declined their invitation, which did not make the little girls unhappy, but instead gained a lot of sympathy...
Soon, the sun rose above the head, and the women were going home to cook.
Mrs. Li entered the house and was very pleased to see that the children were playing well.
She distributed the remaining snacks to the little girls and said with a smile, "It's almost noon, go home with your mother to cook, and come back to play when you have free time." The
little girls saluted one after another, waved to the good news, and then After going out, I met up with my mother and skipped home.
Jiayin ran over and hugged her grandma, complaining and complaining, "Grandma, don't let me coax the child anymore, I'm so tired!"
Old Mrs. Li was shaken so dizzy, she knocked her fat granddaughter twice, and finally stabilized herself, but she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She had good intentions and didn't want her granddaughter to be unsociable, but she didn't want her granddaughter to do it, so she didn't force her, so she said.
"What are you talking about? You are also a child! It doesn't matter who coaxes whom! Just forget it if you don't like playing with others. Let's go and look at the fabrics left for you and make more dresses. , In a few days, let your aunt take you out to play."
Mrs. Wen was rolling a piece of Sichuan brocade. When she saw them approaching, she smiled and said, "This brocade has elegant patterns. It will definitely be suitable for Hongying to make a coat and skirt in winter. Mrs.
Li was a little worried, "I'm so busy at home that I really don't have time to do needlework. Speaking of which, in a few days it will be time to collect autumn clothes and winter clothes. Together, there will be more clothes for more than 20 people." I'm too busy."
Jiayin said immediately, "Grandma, find out the fabric and send it to the Hou Mansion. Just ask the embroiderer in the Hou Mansion to help sew it."
Mrs. Li subconsciously responded, "No, it's too troublesome. "It's..."
Dongmei stood aside and spoke to the young master, "Old madam, you also know that the Marquis is away from home for many years, and there are seven or eight embroiderers in the mansion. They are all worried about losing their jobs. On weekdays, I occasionally give to the county The Lord is making a dress, and I don't know how many people are vying for it.
"Now that we have arranged some work for them, they will probably go crazy with joy. Their skills were finally put to use. Besides, we don't have to rush to put on the clothes and coats and skirts in our house. Let them do it slowly and they won't get tired. "
"So this is ah. "Old Mrs. Li then nodded. Although the Marquis made it clear that the Hou Mansion was for good news, the Li family always tried their best to stick to their duties and did not want to take advantage of the Hou Mansion. They were afraid that everyone in the Hou Mansion would look down on the Li family and suffer consequences. Her granddaughter was also embarrassed. After
Dongmei opened her mouth, she felt relieved and said, "Okay, let's figure out how many clothes we need to make, find out the materials, and send them out as soon as possible. But when the clothes are ready, our family will give you some hard-earned money. No matter how much it is, it's always my intention and you can't let others suffer in vain.
"Okay, when the time comes I will send the fabric there, and I will also bring the message. " " Dongmei responded with a smile. As expected, she turned around and saw Jiayin making a small gesture towards her.
Originally, Jiayin wanted to take advantage of these few days to sell the jade melons she had saved in the space.
Just in time, this time, she She planned to follow Dongmei and Ye Shan back to the city and settle things together.
Old Mrs. Li didn't know that her fat granddaughter was planning to make a fortune again, so she happily took Mrs. Wen to pick out clothing materials. This piece is suitable for making coats and skirts for Jiayin, and that piece is suitable for making homely coats for Zhao Yuru and Tao Hongying.
Li Laoer also wants to make a few sets of gowns, as well as Jiaren and Brother Li. As the new wife, Wenjuan wants brightly colored ones, and Jiahuan wants ones that are durable and stain-resistant.
Uncle Zhao in the backyard needed two sets of coarse cloth for their autumn clothes, and fine cotton for their coats and trousers, with extra cotton. After all, they were always wandering around outside in the winter... They were
dizzy after hearing the good news, and impatient to join in the fun, so they sneaked into the house and played with it. Box jewelry.
I have to say that the Queen really spent a lot of money this time.
Maybe I heard that she liked gold bracelets. There were actually four pairs of gold bracelets in the box. They were all solid. When I picked them up, they were very heavy.
Any pair of them would take out four or five taels and send them to be melted and remade, which would be enough to make a set of noodle dishes.
Jiayin already had a lot stored in the space, so this time he took them all out generously and sent them to the Hou Mansion along with the fabrics, so that the master jewelry maker could figure out four sets of hair and face.
Just before, some gems that Jiayi's brother collected for her in the south can also be put to use.
The gemstones are not big in size, but are of good quality. They are perfect for setting into earrings or hairpins.
There happened to be four women in the family, old and young, grandma, mother, third uncle and sister-in-law Wenjuan, each with a new look.
There is also a set of twelve flower hairpins in the box, corresponding to the month, with one flower for each month, each with its own beauty and exquisiteness.
Jiayin planned to leave three of them to grandma in the winter, and the rest would be enough for the family to share.
Mother, third uncle, sister-in-law Wenjuan, Huiniang, Mrs. Wen, Aunt He, Dongmei, sister-in-law Qiong, there are exactly nine people, one for each person.
As for Shui Ling and Shui Yun, there is also a pair of silver bracelets with excellent carvings in the box...
Of course, it is impossible not to keep the good news for themselves.
Only half of these boxes were separated, and the remaining half was put into a makeup box by her. They were all in styles suitable for her age.
Although I don't like the Queen, it is still okay to wear the jewelry given by the Queen when I go out as a guest in the future to show off.
After Mrs. Li and others finished dividing the fabrics, they received jewelry from the fat girl, which was a surprise.
Mrs. Wen wanted to refuse, but Old Mrs. Li said, "Just take it for you. This girl belongs to Pixiu and can only go in and out. It is really not easy to separate things in her hands. After passing this village, This store no longer exists."
Everyone laughed, and Mrs. Wen even inserted the flower hairpin directly into her temples, causing Grandma He and Dongmei to do the same.
Shui Ling and Shui Yun even smiled and shook the silver bracelets on their wrists, with flowers blooming on their faces.
After lunch, Dongmei and Yeshan were about to enter the city.
Jiayin used the excuse that she was bored at home, took Shui Ling with her, and ran away with him...
Not to mention the excitement at home, she only said that Li Laoer came to the academy to give gifts today.
Dean Zhou, the Peng family, and Mr. Tang all had four jade melons and twenty golden fruits.
Although there are not many, everyone knows that the melons in Ruijintan are valuable.
Even the palace only gave away dozens of them.
Moreover, if you have four jade melons, you can eat two at home, and two more as gifts from good friends or elders are enough.
