Chapter 135 Is it easy to earn money through hard embroidery?
The thin spring dress, made of the finest fabric from the embroidery workshop, was in the fashionable style of the capital. Yue Niang was completely stunned, exclaiming, "This style is so beautiful!"
"The stitching is also very fine, and the colors match beautifully."
The Moon Maiden praised her repeatedly, then asked, "Madam Liu, would you be interested in becoming an embroiderer in the embroidery workshop?"
"An embroiderer?"
Liu Suyi's eyes lit up.
Moon Lady nodded and said, "That's right, our embroiderers are the best in the entire Chaosheng County, earning three taels of silver a month!"
"no."
Liu Suyi shook her head and refused.
The Moon Goddess had everything prepared and she had agreed, but who knew that she would actually refuse?
"Madam Liu, your cooking is quite good. When Steward Tong arrives, I can talk to him about adding a little more to the allowance."
The Moon Goddess earnestly persuaded her, saying that there was truly no one else in the entire Chaosheng County with such excellent needlework as Liu Suyi!
Such a skilled embroiderer must be retained.
"It has nothing to do with money."
Liu Suyi smiled and shook her head, "I am honored by Yue Niang's high regard. If I could come to the embroidery workshop as an embroiderer, it would be a blessing I have accumulated over three lifetimes. It's just a pity..."
She expressed her concerns in just a few words.
Cheng Qiqi watched in stunned silence. Perhaps, this is the art of language?
She could clearly sense that Yue Niang was unhappy for a moment after being rejected, but Liu Suyi quickly managed to coax Yue Niang into not being angry at all, but instead feeling sorry for her.
"Madam Liu, you've all had it so tough."
When Yue Niang learned that Liu Suyi was an exile, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her. She had thought that the family was just poor, but she never expected that they would have such a background.
No wonder...
"Moon Maiden, given our identities... will we still be able to get embroidery work in the future?"
Liu Suyi said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we concealed our identities before, it was really..."
Liu Suyi frowned, her arched eyebrows furrowing as if she were blaming herself and feeling guilty.
"If you're willing to do it, we'll naturally accept it."
When Yue Niang saw this, she felt even more sympathy for them. They had gone through so much hardship to reach Lingnan safely, without burdening their families. Instead, they were even taking on embroidery work to earn money. They were truly amazing.
"That's good."
Liu Suyi breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Although I can't come to your embroidery shop to work as an embroiderer, we can cooperate."
"cooperate!"
Moon Maiden instantly perked up. She had been feeling a little down, but now she was full of energy again.
The two immediately began discussing the cooperation, while Cheng Qiqi stood by, not even having a chance to speak, since she knew absolutely nothing about embroidery.
So Cheng Qiqi sat down to eat some snacks. It has to be said that Hongji Embroidery Building is indeed very generous and deserves to be the number one embroidery building in Chaosheng County.
They were so generous with the snacks; they were just there to finish their work, yet they were given snacks.
The plum blossom cake, with its delicate fragrance, melts in your mouth and is sweet but not cloying. An'an will definitely love it.
Half an hour later, the cooperation was concluded and the new contract was signed. Manager Tong looked at Liu Suyi and Cheng Qiqi and said, "I hope we can do even better together in the future."
When Steward Tong first heard about their exiled status and the prospect of cooperation, she hesitated for a moment, but quickly agreed.
They want clothes with new styles and nice designs.
There are many benefits to cooperation. Liu Suyi can make many beautiful clothes and also take orders from the embroidery workshop. Unlike before, when she only made screens, she can now take orders for more complex clothes, birthday paintings, and the like.
"Mom, you're amazing."
After leaving the embroidery building, Cheng Qiqi showered Liu Suyi with compliments, saying that her mother-in-law was clever and a shrewd businesswoman even outside the inner quarters.
"I learned it all from you."
Liu Suyi was also somewhat surprised. When Yue Niang asked her to be an embroiderer, she would have refused. But then she thought, wouldn't it be possible to earn more money by cooperating?
"Seven Seven, these five fans actually earned you five taels of silver and five bolts of three-loom cloth!"
When Liu Suyi mentioned the five taels of silver, she was extremely surprised. The fan was not big, and the design was even smaller. The only difficult part was the double-sided embroidery.
However, Liu Suyi was skilled with practice. While large paintings might be a bit difficult, this small fan was not a challenge for her.
"Those three pieces of cloth were all won by Miss Song in a bet."
Cheng Qiqi touched the three-loom cloth and said, "Give some to Shenglan. The baby has just been born, so she needs softer cloth. Also, make two sets of undergarments for An'an to wear comfortably."
Aside from being prone to getting dirty, three-loom cloth is of very good quality.
Hongji Embroidery Building.
"Send these four sets of clothes to the prefectural city as quickly as possible, along with this letter."
Steward Tong quickly wrote a letter, took the clothes and a double-sided embroidered fan, and sent them all to the prefectural city.
She had a premonition that these four outfits would elevate Hongji Embroidery Shop to a new level, and perhaps even fulfill her mistress's wish.
……
"This little bit of mung bean cake costs thirty coins? This little bit of jujube paste cake costs thirty-five coins."
Liu Suyi had originally planned to buy some delicious pastries for her granddaughter at the pastry shop, but she was shocked when she heard the prices!
Is it easy for her to earn a little money through hard embroidery?
"Our Xu's pastries are just that expensive. If you think they're too expensive, then don't buy them!"
The waiter had encountered countless customers who questioned the prices, and seeing that Liu Suyi and Cheng Qiqi were dressed simply, he immediately looked down on them.
"purchase."
Just as Liu Suyi was about to buy it, Cheng Qiqi pulled her aside and whispered, "Mom, why don't we make it ourselves?"
She had many such pastries in her space. During her three years in the Marquis's mansion, apart from the initial difficult times, she never lacked anything. These were convenient pastries, but she never had the chance to take them out.
"OK."
Liu Suyi turned around and looked at the waiter's mocking smile. She took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to hit him!
Snob!
"Qiqi, let's go buy some flour, mung beans, and red beans."
"Buy some more red dates, I'll make you date cake, mung bean cake, and red bean paste, they're all delicious."
"What I make tastes much better than their pastries."
Liu Suyi stormed out of Xu's pastry shop. She, who used to spend money without batting an eye, never imagined that she would end up not even being able to afford a pastry that cost thirty coins!
"Mom, let's make it ourselves. It'll taste better and be more hygienic."
Cheng Qiqi noticed that Liu Suyi was feeling down and immediately took her hand to comfort her, saying, "That waiter just now, his nails weren't even cut, he looked so dirty..."
"Mom, let's eat candied hawthorns."
Cheng Qiqi, with her sharp eyes, spotted the candied hawthorns for sale and immediately bought six skewers. She handed one to Liu Suyi and said, "Mother, have some. They're sweet and sour."
Her sweet smile, paired with the bright red candied hawthorn, made her feel like she was being pampered like a child.
