Happy peasant girl

Chapter 209 Purple Soil Breaks the Curse (1)
Everyone understood what the patriarch said, especially the women who married into Linjia Village, they took Lin Renyi's words into their hearts.In the past, they all wanted to help their natal family. In the past two years, they have understood a truth. Only when their husband's family is prosperous can they have the ability to feed and clothe their natal family.

Those unmarried Lin family girls also know in their hearts that even if they get married, they still need the support of their natal family, and they can earn money by themselves, so they don't need to pay too much attention to their husband's family.

More and more women in Linjia Village and girls who have not left the court have drawn pledges on the contract documents. Some of them will accept the soles of their shoes, some will decide to learn Hunan embroidery from Qin Zhener while accepting the soles of their shoes, and some will concentrate on learning Hunan embroidery.

In the evening, two-thirds of the women in the village have signed, drawn and pledged, while the other third are either too old or too young to wear shoe soles and embroider clothes.

When Lin Qingxi came to the ancestral house, he wanted to talk about embroidery, but it was already midnight when he was busy with drawing and marking. When Qin and Wu were going to take their children back to rest, Lin Qingxi stopped them.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, Nianyu and Nianshui are asleep in Grandma's house, don't leave, I have something to discuss with you." Lin Qingxi asked Qin Shi, Wu Shi and her to go to the old Lin's house Lin Yuanshan, Lin Zhongguo, Ye family and Mu family are all waiting for them in the hall of their ancestral house.

After sitting down in the living room, Mrs. Ye asked Lin Qingxi: "Girl Xi, you gathered everyone together so late, what's the matter? Does your senior brother have something else to say?"

Lin Qingxi nodded and said: "Auntie, the reason why he gave everyone such a high manual fee is because the shoes with thousand-layer soles are really good, and the second is because of Hunan embroidery. Moreover, this time Bai Hua and Bai Yang entered Jing, I personally embroidered two pairs of embroidered shoes and a suit of clothes for the fourth sister-in-law, but Mrs. Xu Guogong saw it."

"That Mrs. Xu Guogong knows you?" Lin Yuanshan asked.

Lin Qingxi shook her head and said: "Grandpa, you should not have forgotten that Jinniang, the proprietress of Fuxiuzhuang Village, sold my embroidery, and she might have sold one piece of embroidery to Mrs. Xu Guogong. I heard from my brother's letter that, Mrs. Xu Guogong likes embroidery very much and has always wanted to meet the real owner of the embroidery. Before I went to the capital, I told Bai Hua that if anyone asked who embroidered shoes and clothes, they would say sister-in-law. Now, Mrs. Xu Guogong Bid 5000 taels of silver for my sister-in-law to embroider a piece of embroidery for her."

"Me? Little sister, how can I do this! You should embroider!" Qin Zhen'er's Hunan embroidery skills are not much worse than Linqingxi's, but the embroidery of 5000 taels is definitely not easy.

"Sister-in-law, this embroidery must be embroidered with Hunan embroidery. Even if I don't tell you, you should also know how prominent the lady of the Duke of Chu is, and she plans to give this embroidery as a gift." Human. Once our Hunan embroidery becomes famous in the capital, then the things embroidered by women in our village will be able to sell for more money in the future, isn’t that a good thing!”

When ordinary people hear the name of the county magistrate, they feel that they are untouchable high officials, let alone the unattainable state government. They are all relatives of the emperor, and they are not something they can offend.

"A good thing is a good thing, but if the embroidery is smashed, we will not be able to explain it!" Ye said worriedly.

"Grandmother, Mrs. Xu Guogong has already said that even if she doesn't take the money, we have to embroider this embroidery for her. We can't offend her. What's more, we can't afford to offend the person she wants to give the gift to." Lin Qingxi said in a serious tone.

"Xi girl, who is the lady of the country going to give the embroidery to?" Mu also became nervous.

"Give it to the current empress!" Lin Qingxi said in a "soundingly shocking" way.

"what!"

This night, everyone in the old Lin's family was tossing and turning, and even Lin Qingxi kept his eyes open for a long time without falling asleep.

Early the next morning, Qin Zhen'er woke up early, and Wu came out with dark circles under her eyes. The two came to Mu's room together, but they found that Mu had gone to Ye's room, so they went to Ye's there.

"True girl, Ying girl, what do you think? This is a major event for Guangzong Yaozu, and it may cause trouble, you all think clearly." Ye said in a deep voice.

"Grandma, granddaughter-in-law is willing to give it a try. Mrs. Xu Guogong has already stated that she wants embroidery. If we don't embroider it, she will be displeased and even anger our family. No matter who she wants to give it to, this embroidery We must all embroider." Qin Zhen'er thought about it all night, and finally decided to embroider it.

"Grandma, although my daughter-in-law's embroidery skills are not as good as my sister-in-law's, I'm willing to try it too!" Mrs. Wu has been practicing Hunan embroidery hard for the past two years, and she is extremely diligent. She is already considered a very good embroidery person in Hunan embroidery .

"Okay, grandma believes that you will be able to embroider the best embroidery. In the morning, your grandpa went to find the patriarch. Since girl Xi said she wanted to embroider a shocking picture of "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix", you should It is also a big event for our family to ask the best women in Xiang embroidery in the village to participate, if no one wants to embroider, you two can embroider with Xi girl!" Ye Shi became more and more talented from an old farm lady Majestic and visionary, the kids grow and change, and so does she.

"Yes, grandma!"

In the second half of the day, several people came down from the ancestral house of the old Lin family under the leadership of the clan elders, including Ma's eldest daughter-in-law Wen, Zhao's second daughter-in-law Li, Lin Renyi's second daughter-in-law Xiao Zhao, and three future generations. The girls who came out of the pavilion are Lin Juhua, Lin Manman and Lin Rongrong. The Hunan embroidery skills of these six people are the best besides Qin and Wu.

When Lin Renyi had already talked about the embroidery with their respective families, the last six people and their families agreed to embroider this embroidery together. The money is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to spread the reputation of Hunan Embroidery .

Wei Xuan had already bought the best embroidery cloth, embroidery thread and embroidery needles for Linqingxi from the capital, and he didn't know how big the embroidery she would embroider, so he bought her the best embroidery cloth in three colors Five horses each.

"Little sister, how big is this embroidery?" Qin Zhen'er looked at the oversized embroidery cloth in front of him and asked.

Lao Lin's family has set aside a yard for a few people to embroider. Everything is ready and they can start embroidering right away.

"Three feet long and one foot wide!" If she wanted to embroider, she would embroider the largest one, and she wanted to make Hunan embroidery "famous" in the capital this time.

In late spring, grass grows and warblers fly, colorful mountain flowers cover the corners of Damei Mountain, the crystal clear Shanmei River flows into the distance, and the green and green Bihu Mountains are full of vitality.

The Linjia Village at the foot of the mountain will sing and laugh every day, which makes many neighboring villages envious. When will they start to live a good life without worrying about food and drink like the villagers of Linjia Village.
