The Legend of the Farm Girl

The next day, when they arrived at Linglong Embroidery Workshop, Yunfang put the things in her own embroidery room. She did not rush to start work, but went to Tian Tian's embroidery room to see Tian Tian first.

As soon as she entered, Tian Tian looked at Yun Fang with surprise and said, "I heard that you are engaged. Tell me what's going on?"

Yunfang was stunned. She didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. She blushed a little. She had just told Tian Tian about Lu Liding a few days ago, and today he was engaged to someone else. She wondered how Tian Tian would look at her!

Yunfang had no choice but to tell Tian Tian that she had to get engaged.

Seeing Yunfang's embarrassment, Tian Tian smiled and said, "I support your choice. Li Muwen sounds like a good person and will definitely bring you happiness."

Yunfang was deeply touched to see her good friends support and understand her so much.

The two chatted for a while, and Tian Tian told Yun Fang: "Nowadays, the atmosphere of competition among the embroiderers in Linglong Embroidery Workshop is getting more and more serious. Every time they get paid, everyone knows that there are different levels of embroiderers of the same level. Those who get more are always competing with those who get less during meals. You should talk less to them during meals."

Yunfang nodded and said, "Then do you feel any pressure?"

Tian Tian smiled easily at this time and said, "Why should I feel any pressure? I'm pregnant now, they are all very nice to me, and I still have my mother to help me!"

Yunfang nodded and said, "That's fine, but you're about to give birth, right? When are you going home to wait for the birth?"

Tian Tian said with some anticipation: "A midwife came to see me and the birth will be around the end of August. I plan to go home in mid-August to wait for the birth of my baby after I get my salary."

Yunfang was also looking forward to the birth of this little life and promised to make some small clothes for Tian Tian's child.

The two chatted for a while, and then Yunfang returned to her embroidery room. After not being there for a long time, the room was covered with dust again. The first thing Yunfang did when she came back was to fetch water and clean the room from inside to outside.

Sitting in the clean embroidery room, Yunfang began to plan her work for the next day.

First of all, I still have to make more money for my mother, otherwise she will definitely use her savings to prepare a dowry for me.

There are also things she wants to embroider for her wedding. This is not very urgent. She has to make the clothes first. Yunfang wants to learn how to make wedding dresses in the system. Yunfang has her own ideas. Yun’s Garment Shop has always been engaged in daily clothing. Can she take advantage of the opportunity of her marriage to include making wedding dresses in the business scope?

Every woman would like to wear a beautiful wedding dress when she gets married, but wedding dresses are usually very expensive. Rich families would not buy them in shops. The current customers of Yun’s clothing shop cannot afford them, so Yun Fang has a new idea - renting.

These thoughts only flashed through Yunfang's mind, and she had not discussed them with anyone else. However, Yunfang had already made up her mind to study the system well, and after she had learned it well, she would teach her mother and the others.

After thinking all this over, Yunfang went to see Manager An again. She still had to embroider things to make money. Yunfang chose to embroider quilt covers. With Yunfang's current skills, she could embroider an exquisite quilt cover in two or three days.

After Manager An handed Yunfang a few blank quilt covers, he said to her, "I told the young master yesterday that you have been in the embroidery room recently. The young master said that he hopes you can embroider a screen to be placed in the front hall. Maybe the screen will be ready and sent to you next month. You can just embroider a red plum blossom announcing good news on it. You must show your embroidery skills. You will be paid a lot after you finish. The young master means that you will be paid 100 taels before you start embroidering, and then you will be paid according to the quality of your embroidery after you finish it."

Yunfang thought about it. If she were to embroider the screen by herself, even if it was a simple pattern like red plum blossoms announcing good news, it would take her three months. However, the young master was not a person who was stingy with wages. If the embroidery was good, she should be able to get at least three hundred taels of wages in the end. No matter how you calculate it, it was a good deal.

Yunfang nodded in agreement, but it would take some time for the screen to be delivered, so she would embroider the blank quilt cover that Manager An gave her before the screen arrived, and then put all her effort into embroidering the screen.

When Manager An saw Yunfang agreed, he left with a smile.

Yunfang picked up the embroidery needle and thread and began to embroider the quilt cover. The morning passed quickly. At noon, Yunfang came to the dining hall. The moment Yunfang entered the dining hall, almost all the embroiderers in the room looked at her.

The familiar embroiderers began to talk in low voices, all of them were discussing Yunfang.

Yunfang knew that everyone was looking at her with inquiring eyes, and she also knew that everyone was discussing her at this time. But she could only pretend that she didn't care, she couldn't stop everyone from looking at her or talking about her.

Fortunately, Manager An came at this time. She was very thoughtful. As a top embroiderer, Yunfang was the first to return to the embroidery room to work. There was no precedent before, so naturally there was no place for Yunfang in the dining hall. In the morning, she specifically asked someone to separate a compartment for Yunfang, which could block the sight of other embroiderers and let Yunfang eat quietly in it.

Shopkeeper An walked up to Yunfang and led her to the compartment. He told her his arrangements and Yunfang thanked him gratefully.

I wanted to ask Tian Tian to come along, but then I remembered that Linglong Embroidery Workshop is a place with clear hierarchical management for embroiderers, and I won’t be working in the embroidery room all the time, so I still have to abide by the rules, so I gave up.

Sitting in the cubicle, although she could still hear the discussions outside, Yunfang felt more comfortable because she was blocked from the embroiderers' sight.

In the days that followed, whenever they saw her, there would be a lot of discussions among the embroiderers, but Yunfang cared less and less, until finally, she could ignore it completely.

After lunch, Yunfang accompanied Tian Tian for a walk as usual. However, unlike the past when other embroiderers would come to joke with them, now other embroiderers would only discuss behind Yunfang's back and would not say anything to her in person. As a top embroiderer, Yunfang's status was different from theirs.

After walking around with Tian Tian for a few rounds, Yunfang returned to her embroidery room, entered the system, and re-planned her learning content.

Four hours, one hour to practice embroidering the red plum blossom announcing happiness screen, and try to get the hang of it as soon as you start;

One hour to study policy essays. I have been delayed a lot in this area recently. I still need to strengthen my studies and tutor my younger brothers. I may also help Li Muwen in the future.

One hour to learn how to make wedding dresses, not only to make her own, but also to make more new styles and teach them to her mother;

In the last hour, Yunfang continued to study business. Maybe it was because she had limited talent in this area. Yunfang had studied for many years but still did not have strong business ability. But Yunfang would not give up. She thought that if she continued to persist, she would always make progress.

At noon, Yunfang entered the system to learn how to embroider a screen. It was all embroidery, which could also be connected to the quilt cover embroidery in the afternoon.

Soon, Yunfang began to study with full concentration. After waking up, she threaded the needle and worked hard.

When it was time to get off work, Yunfang was dawdling to pack her things. Thinking that Li Muwen should have been at the door to pick her up, she was a little afraid to go out.

Then she took a deep breath, knowing that she had to face today anyway, and she walked out as if she was going to a battlefield.

But the moment she saw Li Muwen, she lost her temper again, and in a panic, she even wanted to hide in Linglong Embroidery Workshop.

At this time, Li Muwen had already seen her and noticed her little thoughts. He did not give her a chance to escape and directly called out, "Sister Fang'er, here."

This shout drew everyone's attention to him, and Yunfang seemed to hear the murmurings of discussion around them again.

She walked quickly to Li Muwen and said shyly and angrily, "Keep your voice down!"

Li Muwen, who saw Yunfang's expression for the first time, burst out laughing and said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault for being so loud. I was worried that you didn't see me!"

Yunfang said unhappily: "I saw it, I saw it. You're so conspicuous, how could I not see it!" After saying that, Yunfang felt that her attitude was too bad. Just as she was about to make up for it, Li Muwen spoke.

Li Muwen smiled gently and said, "Oh? Am I very conspicuous in Sister Fang'er's eyes?"

Yunfang didn't expect that even though she had such a bad attitude, Li Muwen was still so gentle to her. She finally raised her head and looked at Li Muwen in front of her seriously.

He was tall and straight, wearing a Tingfeng Academy robe that fluttered in the wind. His face was fair, his features were delicate, his eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and he was elegant with a bit of bookish air. It was just because he was still young that he was somewhat childish, but it was conceivable that in a few years, he would be a dashing and suave man.

Such a young man naturally attracts people's attention, and Yunfang has to admit that he is indeed conspicuous.

Unconsciously, her attitude became much better. Yunfang blushed and said, "If you come again, don't shout for me. I will come to you."

Li Muwen smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two of them walked together to Yun's Clothing Store, and the journey only took about a quarter of an hour.

On the way, Li Muwen did not let the atmosphere cool down. She smiled and asked Yunfang: "How was your day? What did you do?"

Because of Li Muwen's patience and gentleness, Yunfang unconsciously told him a lot. Yunfang said that during lunch, the embroiderers were looking at her and discussing her, which made her very uncomfortable.

Li Muwen comforted him: "Your value is not determined by other people's opinions. Your ability and talent are obvious to everyone. What really matters is the opinions of those who understand and support you. You don't need to care about other people."

When Yunfang heard what Li Muwen said, she found it very reasonable. She couldn't help but look at Li Muwen seriously, and found that the man in front of her was not only talented, but also had his own way of doing things.

Just like that, as Li Muwen asked and Yun Fang answered, the two of them unknowingly walked to Yun's Clothing Shop.

When they arrived at the shop, both Aunt Wang in the front yard and the female workers in the back yard had already known about their engagement, and they all smiled broadly at the two.

Yunfang and Li Muwen arrived at the shop, which also meant that the shop was about to close. After helping to clean up the shop, the two went back home with their mothers.

On the way home, Yunfang's mother kept asking Yunfang about how she and Li Muwen got along. After Yunfang answered, she said with satisfaction: "You see, my vision is really good. I always felt that Li Muwen should be my son-in-law."

Yunfang was embarrassed to respond, so she changed the subject and said, "Mom, I want to expand my clothing store."

Yun Fangniang's attention was diverted at once, and she said in surprise: "Business in the shop is just good now. No matter how much we do, I'm afraid there won't be so many customers."

Yunfang shook her head and said, "Mom, I don't want to make more ready-made clothes for daily wear, I want to make wedding dresses."

"Making wedding dresses? Most women can sew their own wedding dresses! Can they be sold?"

Yunfang told her mother all her ideas. She wanted to make a new and luxurious wedding dress, which would only be rented out and not sold. The rental price would be cheaper than making an ordinary and simple one herself, but she had to make sure it could not be dirty or damaged.

Yun Fangniang fell into deep thought.

Just like that, the mother and daughter arrived home. Yunfang's mother was still thinking about the feasibility of the matter, while Yunfang had already gone to prepare dinner.

Not long after, Yunfang's mother also came to help Yunfang, and then said: "Mother knows that you have learned a lot, and your idea is definitely feasible, but you are going to get married soon, so this matter can be discussed after you and Mu Wen are married. The new wedding dress shop will not be mixed with the ready-made clothing shop."

Yunfang knew that her mother always considered the ways of the world more than she did. She had only learned knowledge in the system, but the ways of the world still needed to be honed in life.

Yunfang nodded and said, "Okay, mother, we'll talk about it later, but I can teach you how to make a wedding dress first."

Yun Fangniang was naturally willing to learn and nodded in approval.

The two of them quickly prepared dinner, and when Yunfeng and Yunying came back, the four of them once again had a warm dinner.

Life seemed to have returned to the peace and tranquility of the past, but everyone knew that such days would not last long. In less than a year, Yunfang would be married.

In the following days, Yunfang repeated this life, but Li Muwen would find different topics to chat with Yunfang every day.

Yunfang talked to him more and more, and became more and more accustomed to Li Muwen coming to Linglong Embroidery Workshop to pick her up every day.

Until the end of the month, Li Muwen's academy and Yunfang's Linglong Embroidery Workshop will be closed. When Li Muwen picked up Yunfang, he asked her, "Tomorrow is a day off. Do you want to go to appreciate the lotus flowers?"

It was midsummer, and there was a lotus pond in Yiqing County, and the lotus flowers were in full bloom, but Yunfang shook her head and said, "I won't go. I have something to do tomorrow."

Li Muwen was a little disappointed. He thought that Yunfang had gradually accepted him over the past half month. But he soon cheered up and said, "Okay, just do your own thing."

Yunfang found him like this interesting and said slowly, "I was thinking that if you have nothing to do tomorrow, you can accompany me to give Tian Tian the clothes I made for her child! If you go to appreciate the lotus, then I'll go by myself!"

Li Muwen was so surprised by Yunfang's words that he didn't know what to do. He quickly said, "I won't go, I won't go, I'll go with you, I'll go with you."

Yunfang burst out laughing, and Li Muwen's face turned a little red, but he still looked at Yunfang gently.

The two of them went to the shop in this atmosphere.

Before parting, Yunfang and Li Muwen agreed on a time to meet again tomorrow.
