The daily life of the concubine of the Prime Minister

Although the woman was dressed in coarse clothes, her temperament was more like that of a noble lady in a mansion, and her every move exuded elegance.

She looked at the woman:

"Aunt Jiang, why did you come back so late today?" She quickly began to count the silver on the table.

Soon she finished counting, a total of twenty taels: "Is there six more taels of silver?"

Every time she asked Aunt Jiang to sell double-sided embroidery, the quality and quantity were equal.

Everything that happened today seemed abnormal, so she looked at Aunt Jiang.

Aunt Jiang laughed and told everything that happened at the city gate today: "The No. 1 Workshop in the World is willing to pay ten times the price to buy our double-sided embroidery. No matter what it is, we don't have to work hard to set up a stall at the city gate anymore."

Li Mei didn't think twice and shook her head: "We'll still set up a stall in the future."

"Li Mei, it's different. Tian Xia Di Yi Fang agreed that you don't have to go there in person. I can send you there. This way you don't have to worry about exposing yourself."

After selling several batches of double-sided embroidery, the money was enough for this small village.

But Limei continued to embroider, because she couldn't help it. She was a creator, and she couldn't help but keep innovating her works.

Aunt Jiang thought it was a waste, so she didn't sell them for her on a regular basis.

But she had her own selfish motives, hoping to attract the attention of Yuzhentang.

She created it from scratch, and evolved Suzhou embroidery into double-sided embroidery. Only she knows how much time and energy it took.

It just so happened that Yuzhentang had come out with double-sided embroidery before her, which made her really excited.

It felt like a lonely road was suddenly crossed by a fellow traveler. As an enthusiast of double-sided embroidery, how could Li Mei not be excited?

Even if her life was in danger, she was willing to do it.

So, she would tell Aunt Jiang that as long as Wang Zhentang came, she could reveal herself to the people in Yuzhentang.

Liu Yu wants to see Li Mei, and Li Mei wants to see Liu Yu even more.

"No need, Aunt Jiang, just reject Tianxia Diyifang!" Tianxia Diyifang and Yuzhentang are opponents, she would not agree.

Seeing her decisive refusal, Aunt Jiang knew there was no hope and she stopped trying to persuade her because such things happened too many times.

"Oh, by the way." Aunt Jiang told Limei about what happened at Yuzhen Hall and what Liu Yu said.

After hearing this, Li Mei was trembling all over...

"Li Mei, it's not your aunt who said that Wangzhen Hall is really not as good as Tianxia Diyifang. You should consider Tianxia Diyifang instead of Yuzhen Hall."

In Aunt Jiang's opinion, Liu Yu's ability to see through people's hearts and his extraordinary intelligence made her feel that he was too dangerous.

She also didn't want anything to happen to Limei. She earned five taels of silver a month from selling double-sided embroidery, but she was saving that money for her son to get married.

Li Mei's eyes were filled with excitement. She grabbed Aunt Jiang's hand and said, "No, Aunt Jiang, please help me make the trip! I want to meet someone from the Jade Needle Hall."

"Have you made up your mind?"

"Okay. I want to see the people from Yuzhen Hall." There was something in her eyes that Aunt Jiang had never seen before. It was desire, just like the desire for food during the famine years in previous years.

Aunt Jiang finally nodded: "Okay! I'll go find them tomorrow..."

"Thank you, Aunt Jiang."

Limei took out seven silver coins and gave them to Aunt Jiang.

The Zhuang family was honest and thought that the extra two taels were undoubtedly the fee for running errands, so Aunt Jiang took it directly.

"Don't worry, Limei. I will definitely bring the person back to you..."

Uncle Chen never thought that those two simple sentences would actually attract the stall owner to come to his door.

At this moment, he was still asking Liu Yu.

"Third sister-in-law, how confident are you that those words will make that stall come to the door?"

"Fifty percent."

"Only 50%?" Uncle Chen exclaimed. That means there are only two answers: yes or no.

She looked at Liu Yu disapprovingly and said, "No, let's have someone look for it nearby, just in case we find it!"

To him, that woman must be from their Yuzhen Hall.

Liu Yu did not stop her. She did not believe it could be found so easily, otherwise a weaving workshop would have hired an embroiderer who could embroider double-sided embroidery.

Just as Liu Yu expected, the person sent by Uncle Chen came back in the afternoon of the next day and didn't care at all.

The terrain outside the West City is complex, and it is not easy to find a village inside.

However, Uncle Chen was also a stubborn man, and he began to plan to send more people to go deeper into the mountains outside the west city.

"Why didn't you stop your brother?" Liu Yu looked at Mr. Chen San who was drinking tea comfortably.

Mr. Chen San said as a matter of course: "If he wants to look for it, let him look for it! What if he finds it?"

Liu Yu moved closer to him. Although Uncle Chen could find it, there was disbelief in Uncle Chen's eyes.

Okay! Liu Yu smiled and suddenly asked him, "If I say I can find the stall owner, will you accompany me, Master San?"

"I believe it," Mr. Chen nodded. "But Yu'er, I want to tell you that if there is one, there will be another. You can't prevent the third. The popularity of double-sided embroidery is bound to be imitated by others.

There’s no need to go to such great lengths.”

He never thought that he would belong only to Yuzhen Hall.

In his opinion, that stall was just the first imitation, important but not that important.

How could Liu Yu not understand this truth? Therefore, the contract she signed with the embroiderer was for ten years.

I just don’t mind that ten years later, these embroiderers use this craft to survive.

The shop owners of those weaving workshops all thought so, and regarded the stall owner as someone who had imitated the double-sided embroidery of Yuzhentang.

But is this really the case? Only Liu Yu knows that it is not.

That is the Creator.

It is evident that double-sided embroidery can be created without any conditions.

He was determined to get this man.

"I'll remember what Third Master said." Liu Yu stopped chatting about this topic and asked Third Master Chen:

"What if the Zhou family refuses to back out of this marriage?"

Chen Xiyao is old, and delaying for another quarter of an hour would cause her more harm.

This is something that no one in the Chen family wants to see.

"This is not up to the Zhou family." Master Chen narrowed his eyes, exuding a dangerous aura: "The people I sent out gave us information that Zhou Anhuai has been making small moves frequently in the past two days."

Liu Yu was delighted and had an idea in mind.

Mr. Chen San did not expose her. He smiled and said:

"It's been unusually cold in the northwest lately, and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory is currently calculating astronomical phenomena, so I may not be able to spare that much time."

"Please help me investigate Zhou Huaian's case! Just tell me when you have the result, okay?"

Liu Yu was worrying about having no excuse to take on this job, but unexpectedly, Mr. Chen San took the initiative to ask for it. Since that was the case, she just went with the flow and agreed to do it.

Liu Yu had heard about the Northwest ice disaster from Mr. Chen San last time. It was said that he had given it to Zhou Zheng.

Liu Yu didn't ask the reason, she nodded:

"Okay, leave it to me! How long will you be in the palace this time?"

"Not sure yet."

"Oh."

Is this the reaction?

Mr. Chen San was dissatisfied and lowered his head to nibble on her lips.
