Chapter 65

"That's the way it is."

"Mrs. Yang intends to go to Beijing to return to her mother's house to celebrate her mother's birthday."

"The eighth day of March next year."

"Madam Yang wore the new dress you made, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, so she decided to add an extra dress to the birthday gift for mother."

"So, let's see if we can finish the work a month ahead of schedule and bring it with Madam Yang when she leaves. Of course, Madam Yang will pay twice as much."

Having said that, I am busy adding.

"Of course, I know Ah Qi, you don't care about money, you care about fine workmanship."

Qixing looked at the embroidery frame, then at the painting, and said, "Let me count the time."

As long as there is no outright rejection, there will be drama, and Madam Dong is very happy.

"Okay, okay." She said yes repeatedly, and held Qixing's hand again, "But, it's okay, no, I'll go and tell Mrs. Yang, even if this order is not done, it's okay, don't worry, everything is covered by me Woolen cloth."

Qixing smiled at her and nodded: "I know, with the shopkeeper here, I don't have any worries."

Madam Dong smiled: "Yes, that's right, that's it." After saying that, she stood up, "I won't bother you."

Don't forget to tell me again when you go out.

"Think slowly, don't worry."

Seeing Mrs. Dong go out, Qixing was sitting on a chair, the thin needle was gently rotating in her hand, like a light shining on her fingertips.

Time is not a problem for her. The construction period mentioned earlier is because her main business is not embroidery, it is just a cover, and there are other things to do.

If you want to rush to work, it is not impossible.

Of course, she won't agree immediately, and it would be prudent to answer after thinking for a few days. She still understands these basic ways of life.

But when I got home that night, just after dark, shopkeeper Lu came in person.

"I just received a piece of news. Old Wei couldn't hold back and urged me to come over and tell you." He kept saying.

At this time, the old man selling supper hadn't left the stall yet, Qingzhi whispered: "I'm going to cook in the kitchen." Then he withdrew, cooking briefly in the kitchen while looking outside vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Seven Star asked.

Shopkeeper Lu took out a letter with a solemn expression: "The news from the capital said that the Mohist who punished Liu Xiucai was arrested by the government."

Got it, Qixing took the letter.

In order to convey the news quickly, the letter was written very simply. It only said where the accident happened, and the people in the door should be careful.

"The capital also issued a hero order." The shopkeeper Lu continued, taking out another letter, "Please rescue the Mohist who was arrested, so that the government will not convict him again, and our family who has already been charged with the crime will never be restored."

"I thought it was very powerful, and dared to sue at the feet of the emperor, but now it seems that we are more powerful, at least act cautiously."

In Ruyi Workshop, Qi Xing didn't see how restless Wei Dong's family was, but instead muttered and mocked.

Shopkeeper Lu glared at him: "Say less."

Wei Dongjia snorted: "If you're not careful in doing things, don't let us talk about it. Last time they looked down on us and asked Seven Star to make dice."

The last time an appeal order was issued, the capital actually wanted to appeal for a free-wheeling dice.

What are dice for?This is clearly a provocation.

Dong Wei's family's impression of Jingcheng was even worse, and they wanted to throw it away by cursing, but after seeing this request, Seven Star offered a thousand taels, and readily accepted it.

After the dice were delivered, the money was also delivered on time, but Dong Wei's family still bears a grudge, and when he mentioned it, he was very angry.

Wei Dongjia snorted and turned to pour tea.

Hot tea is gurgling on the small stove, and dried pickled beans and fish are placed on the small table. There is a special kind of warmth in the messy and warm workshop.

"Qixing, try the dried fish." Shopkeeper Lu said, "Even restaurants want to buy Wei Dong's ancestral handicraft."

Qixing smiled and tasted it, nodded and said, "It's delicious."

This child seems to say that everything is delicious, and he is not picky at all.

Shopkeeper Lu picked up the tea and smacked his mouth: "It's a big deal to rob someone from the government."

However, although shopkeeper Lu hurriedly ran to tell Qixing directly after receiving the news, it was actually not a very urgent matter for them.

Anxiety is psychologically worried about this fellow student who was arrested and the troubles that will follow, but practically, this matter has nothing to do with them.

This is something chivalrous men can do, but they are powerless as craftsmen.

If it happened in their local area, they could help, just like Chief Meng Xi did last time, to help investigate and cover the aftermath, but in other places, it was beyond his reach.

Do things according to your ability.

"Yes, this is the first rescue order issued by the door since the catastrophe." Wei Dongjia said, "I don't know if it will work."

Shopkeeper Lu said: "Do your best."

Qixing held the letter and meditated slightly, but the result of this matter is also very important.

Success can not only save this person's life, but not get involved in the door, and more importantly, inspire people.

So if it fails, not only that person will die, but everyone's will will be frustrated again.

"Let me go and have a look too." She raised her head and said.

Wei Dong's family and shopkeeper Lu looked at her.

"What are you going to see?" Shopkeeper Lu said, "It's very dangerous, this is not for fun."

Wei Dongjia slowly lowered the hand holding the teacup, and had an intuition.
"This is our first rescue since the catastrophe. Since I want to be the leader, of course I can't stand by and watch it myself," Qixing said.

Shopkeeper Lu was stunned, and Dong Wei's family was secretly delighted. Sure enough, it was right not to drink water, otherwise they would spray all over the floor again.

Shopkeeper Lu is used to this girl's ambition, but daily talk is fine.

"Miss Qixing, this is very dangerous." Shopkeeper Lu said.

Qixing nodded: "I know, shopkeeper Lu, don't worry, I will act carefully."

This is not a careless thing. Is she joking, or did she not understand what he meant?
Shopkeeper Lu could only say bluntly: "It's not something to be careful about, you can't go, you just wait here for the news."

Qixing smiled: "Master Lu, do you think I will listen to you?"

Is this a joke?
But it wasn't funny at all. Shopkeeper Lu turned his head to look aside, and saw that Dong Wei's family was still eating dried fish.

"You still eat." He patted the table, "Have you heard what Qixing is saying? Don't you have anything to say?"

Dongjia Wei said: "I heard that." He looked at Qixing and cupped his hands, "Miss Qixing is so courageous."

Qixing smiled at him and accepted it calmly.

Shopkeeper Lu suddenly felt that he couldn't tell whether Dong Wei's family was in a strange mood.

"It's too dangerous, how can she go?" He looked at the old and the young, "We are just craftsmen, not knights."

Wei Dongjia asked Qixing: "Do you have self-knowledge?"

Qixing said with a smile: "Yes, I will do what I can, and I will do something and not do it."

Wei Dong's family looked at shopkeeper Lu: "It's just fine."

How is this all right?Shopkeeper Lu wanted to say more: "But——"

Wei Dongjia interrupted him: "Dangerous, who in Momen is afraid of danger? The knights are not afraid, but we craftsmen are afraid?"

Shopkeeper Lu looked at the old and the young, and said angrily: "Okay, you are amazing, I am cowardly."

"I know shopkeeper Lu is not cowardly, but worried about me." Qixing stood up and saluted, and said solemnly, "Please rest assured shopkeeper, I will act cautiously and not do things that I am not sure about."

Shopkeeper Lu looked at her: "Then I won't say more, since Miss Qixing is going, then I can't stop her." He also got up and saluted, "Please take care, you are still young, you are the one behind the door. hope."

Qixing nodded.

"Then how do we go about it? We should discuss it carefully, right?" Shopkeeper Lu looked at Wei Dong's who was still eating, and kicked his wheelbarrow angrily.

Seven Star said: "I have already thought about it just now, and now I have a very suitable opportunity."

"You said you were going to the capital first?"

Madam Dong didn't expect Qixing to reply so quickly, but before she had time to be happy, she was taken aback by her thoughts.

"I can embroider while walking." Qixing explained, "This way there will be no delay along the way. When Mrs. Yang enters the capital, I will deliver the finished robes to her directly in the capital, and save the time of the journey. If you plan carefully, the time will be reduced." Enough."

Mrs. Dong thought about it and nodded: "This sounds really suitable. But will it be too troublesome?"

Although the world is peaceful now, traveling is still troublesome and dangerous.

Qixing smiled: "Shopkeeper, when I was ten years old, I brought my mother to Xucheng for a burial."

That's right, this Qixing is indeed not a lady who was pampered by a boudoir, Madam Dong sighed lightly: "Miss Qixing has suffered a lot."

Qixing held her hand and said, "But now that I have Linglongfang and Shopkeeper Dong, I won't suffer any more when I travel."

Mrs. Dong ouched twice and shook Qixing's hand instead.

At first, I liked this girl because she didn't care about money, but cared about love and justice.

Now, it's impossible not to like a girl who values ​​affection.

"Okay, let's do it like this, Poor Family Fulu, we Linglongfang will never let you suffer." She said loudly.

As he spoke, he got up and went out like the wind, leaving behind a lingering sound.

"You can rest assured and wait for us to arrange it."

Qixing looked at the fluttering door curtain, smiled, picked up the embroidery needle and turned it lightly, bowed her head and walked the needle flying.
