Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

Which child is not a treasure in the hearts of his parents?

Wang Shiyu did not agree with this statement. If she was really worried about the child, she would not be so careless as to let some ignorant people treat her son. Even if it was a desperate measure, who knew whether those doctors were good at treating the child properly? If there was any problem, it would be too late to regret.

As for what the City Lord Yu did, she didn't want to express any emotions. She could only say that everyone has their own destiny. She could only say that the child was really pitiful. He had to deal with such unreliable parents and could only blame himself for his bad luck. She just hoped that the child could face his future life positively.

"Mom, I may not be able to come back at noon today. If you think I can't come back, you can take Ruirui to Aunt Niu's house to stay for the afternoon. After all, it's a bit inconvenient to have a man from another family at home. You should hide for a while and wait for me to come back."

Mo Ru Ru paused her sewing hands for a moment, then nodded silently, knowing that her daughter must be busy at this time, otherwise she would definitely come back at noon.

"Did something happen? Or did your grandfather ask you to do something?"

She couldn't think of who could trip up her daughter, after all, her daughter didn't like staying outside.

"It has nothing to do with the Wang family. The embroidery workshop received an order from City Lord Yu to embroider a picture of pine and crane for the current Queen Mother's birthday. They asked for a blueprint first, and then a thousand embroiderers would work together to embroider it, implying the Queen Mother's thousand years of life. Because everyone's embroidery method is different, we need to work on it in advance.

So I may not be able to come back at noon. I might be there to adjust to the new situation, so I can't come back.

I was also worried that some people would talk behind your back and tell my father about it, which would be bad for your reputation, so I decided to go to Aunt Niu's house and stay for an afternoon, because the owner of the embroidery workshop arranged for me to embroider the first stitch, and I had the least to do, so I should be able to do it after a little adjustment.

I don’t think it will take too long.”

When Wang Shiyu said this, her expression was very cold, and she didn't feel happy at all for embroidering the first stitch for the empress dowager. The reason why Wang Shiyu was asked to embroider the first stitch was because she was the youngest. Only the youngest person could embroider the first stitch, and then the oldest embroiderer could embroider the last stitch, so that the empress dowager could feel their sincerity, which meant that the empress dowager would live a long and healthy life.

Fortunately, Wang Shiyu's needlework and embroidery skills are acceptable, and can be compared with those top embroiderers. The city lord decided that Wang Shiyu would embroider the first stitch, and she would not be required to embroider the rest herself. After all, she was still young, and even if her embroidery skills were good, those people were still worried about her. It was a great opportunity to arrange for her to embroider the first stitch, and this was also the beginning of Wang Shiyu's fame.

Mo Ru Ru nodded gently without saying anything else. At this time, Aunt Niu had already prepared breakfast. The family sat together to eat breakfast. Mo Ru Ru told Aunt Niu that he would not be back at noon. Aunt Niu said that there was no problem and that they could go to her house directly later.

Wang Shiyu took a piece of clothing and went straight to the embroidery workshop. She had to hand in the embroidery design she had drawn this morning, and she also needed to start the first stitch at noon. Time was still very tight. As soon as Wang Shiyu left the house, she hurried to the embroidery workshop and handed in her design.

It is not similar to the designs of others. The designs of others are basically the continuation of the old longevity crane longevity pictures with slight modifications. Her designs are clearer and the details can be seen more clearly than those drawings of others, but the fluency is not as good as those drawn with a brush. It can only be said that each has its own merits. However, Wang Shiyu's drawings are better because Wang Shiyu has seen many modern paintings and can learn more from them. After all, in the era of the Internet explosion in later generations, people naturally know more.

In less than half an hour, the owner of the embroidery workshop came back with a purse. He gave the purse to Wang Shiyu. The smile on his face made the wrinkles on his face deeper.

"Xiao Yu, I didn't expect you to be so talented at such a young age. Now your design has been chosen by the city lord's wife. Here are five hundred taels of silver for you to keep. Go and get familiar with the embroidery method first. At noon, the city lord's wife will come to our embroidery workshop to start embroidering the first stitch. You can leave after you finish embroidering. I guess the remaining embroiderers will come over one after another in a while. If you want to watch it here, you can watch it here. If you don't want to watch it, you can go back directly.

I still suggest you take a look here. Some embroiderers who have been hidden by other embroidery workshops have been recruited this time. You should take a look and learn more. You are still young and learn faster. It is always good to learn more. "

The owner of the embroidery workshop knew Wang Shiyu's habits. He was used to Wang Shiyu setting off for home at noon every day, because she had an older brother who was still studying and a younger brother who was just born without a father. In order not to embarrass her mother at home, she would always go home to stay with her to prevent others from talking nonsense. Today's matter had been discussed in advance, but the owner of the embroidery workshop felt that this was a very difficult opportunity. You know, this time it is not only the home court of Guangdong embroidery, but also Sichuan embroidery, Su embroidery and Hunan embroidery, and they will all be integrated into this picture of pine and crane longevity and birthday celebrations. This is a rare opportunity to learn secretly.

Wang Shiyu listened without saying anything, and reached out to take the purse. There was something flat inside, not very heavy. It was probably a silver note, probably just the reward for the embroidery.

Adding the reward for the first stitch, which was about fifty taels, he made a net profit of five hundred and fifty taels of silver that day, which was more than she had earned in the previous three months. After all, embroidery was not something that could be achieved overnight. She had learned embroidery in order to make more money, and now she was just making money through her craft.

"It's okay. I've already told my mother that she will be staying at my aunt's house next door today. It's okay for me to just spend some time here. In fact, I want to see the skills of the embroiderers in other embroidery workshops. You know, apart from the sisters in our embroidery workshop, I haven't seen other people's embroidery skills."

The boss nodded, said nothing, and went about his own business. This time they were under a tight timetable and had a heavy task, and to embroider the pattern on brocade, they had to understand the characteristics of the yarn, otherwise it would easily slip, causing the entire work to have to be started all over again. Mainly, brocade was a tribute, and ordinary people could not buy it. This time it was provided by the city lord's wife, a piece of pure white brocade, which also showed the market strength of City Lord Yu's family. You must know that brocade generally does not produce pure white cloth, but basically colorful cloth. This thing is even rarer than tribute.

The silver thread on it could flash colorful colors under the sun. To be honest, she couldn't let it go. This thing seemed to be an imported product and not a style native to Dazhou. You should know that when the cloth here is selected for cloud pattern design, bright colors will be used for painting. Pure white is so rare that only the craftsmen know it.

Wang Shiyu looked at the soft brocade and stroked it gently. It felt as soft and light as a feather. She was eager to embroider it. It would be such a great sense of accomplishment if she could embroider a complete picture on this kind of cloth. However, this thing was very expensive and she really couldn't afford it.

The boss also noticed Wang Shiyu's eyes that suddenly brightened and understood her thoughts. He was also very amazed when he saw the cloth for the first time. However, this thing was not from the embroidery workshop, so he could not just give it to Wang Shiyu and let her embroider it. However, if he could pay more attention, he could save a small piece of cloth. He thought about it and decided to save a piece for her so that she could satisfy her desire to embroider it. After all, this thing was indeed very rare.
