A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman
Chapter 67: Never Forget the Embroidery Shop
"Don't cry yet." Yang Lijun said, "Tell me what happened."
It’s not that Yang Lijun is cold-blooded.
During the years she spent at the frontier, she had seen many more desolate scenes, and those memories would always stir her heart whenever she thought of them.
So she hates disputes, whether for life or love.
This woman suddenly ran out because she cared more about the safety of her daughter and the people around her. She would not show kindness unless she was sure that the other person was truly harmless.
Being kind sometimes hurts the people you care about.
"Yes Yes."
The woman quickly wiped away her tears and forced herself to calm down.
The story is not appealing.
The woman's original name was Yunqing. She was married to Lin Hua, a soldier, through a matchmaker. Although her husband was away from home all year round, he always sent money back for the household expenses, so they lived a pretty good life.
In the third year after their marriage, Yunqing became pregnant and gave birth to twin daughters. Lin Hua, who was far away in the frontier, was very happy. He bought some things for the children and asked someone to bring them back. He also said that he would come back to visit his relatives when he got the next vacation.
Unfortunately, accidents always happen.
Lin Hua died on the battlefield.
Yun Qing had no news of Lin Hua for a long time. It was not until the twins were more than seven months old that he received the news that Lin Hua had died in the battle, along with a twenty-tael pension.
Yun Qing hugged her two daughters and cried bitterly, but what made her most desperate was not only that, but the pension was taken away by her mother-in-law, who said that since Lin Hua was gone, the money should be considered as filial piety money for the next few decades.
Yun Qing argued with reason, but a woman with two wet children could not be more powerful than her mother-in-law and other sisters-in-law.
In order to survive and for her children to survive, she took on almost all the chores at home, just so that her mother-in-law would not kick her out.
However, there is no escape after all.
In order to marry her eldest grandson, Lin Hua's mother sold Yunqing and her two daughters for money. The human traffickers went directly to the village and forcibly took the people away, and later sold them to Boss Zhang.
Huang Mulin both hated and felt helpless about the ancient system that allowed people to be bought and sold at will.
Yun Qing sobbed as she held her child in her arms as she spoke. She was terrified of the unknown future, and even more terrified that she would not be able to protect Lin Hua and her bloodline.
"Mother." Huang Mulin hugged Yang Lijun's neck uncomfortably: "Leave them here."
"it is good."
As long as it is true that the orphans of frontier soldiers are hers, she will take good care of them no matter what.
These are the descendants of the heroes who once followed Yu Zhenzhou to defend their country.
The conversation between the mother and daughter surprised Yun Qing and the other two so much that they knelt down and kowtowed, crying.
The bought maids standing nearby were also sighing at the good luck of the mother and her two daughters. One pretty maid was particularly emotional.
Yu Ze, who had been secretly observing everyone, discovered it and kept it in mind.
After paying the money, Old Wang wanted to send the person to a house in the county town for training. Yun Qingsan and her daughter were a little hesitant, but Yang Lijun and others did not seem to be people who did that kind of business.
Huang Mulin didn't understand, but Yang Lijun understood her concerns.
"Don't worry. I have a house in the county town. You can go there to settle down and learn etiquette. When the new house is built, I will ask Old Wang to take you there to work."
Huang Mulin finally came to his senses after Yang Lijun finished speaking.
"Aunt, don't be afraid." She comforted them: "Our new house is still under construction. You can move in and help me after it's finished next year. I have a lot of things to do here."
The little girl is very cute and speaks in a very pleasant way.
Yun Qing felt a little relieved and followed Old Wang with the child.
After things here came to an end, Yang Lijun and others walked towards the area of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
He Hui Niang held He Jialing's hand. It was the first time for both of them to come to the county town. They were amazed by the prosperity here, which was much more lively than Linhai Town.
Naturally, the prices for food and accommodation are also slightly higher.
Huang Mulin said that she wanted to eat at the wonton stall they passed by last time. She liked it very much. Yang Lijun naturally had no objection. The group walked and looked, and soon they arrived.
Not many people were eating wontons today, so Huang Mulin ordered five bowls of wontons, two small bowls and three large bowls.
It was cooked and served on the table very quickly.
Yu Ze did not sit down. He ate beside him and kept looking around vigilantly.
The others ignored him and just ate.
“This wonton is delicious.”
He Hui Niang praised.
The boss probably heard it and thanked He Hui Niang.
"Hmm, delicious."
Yang Jialing agreed.
"That's what I recommended, Mumu!"
The little girl raised her head playfully, making everyone laugh.
After eating the wontons, they headed towards the embroidery shop they had inquired about.
There are two embroidery shops in the county town, which have been competing with each other all year round. One is famous for its wide variety of products, and the other is famous for its exquisite embroidery work. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
They first went to an embroidery shop with a wide range of products, which sold almost everything related to cloth and materials.
Clothes, quilts, handkerchiefs, pillows, curtains, etc., range from ordinary to high-end, depending on the price. The most common items are mid-level products, which are relatively affordable.
After visiting this shop, they went to another embroidery shop.
Don’t forget the embroidery shop.
A very memorable name.
This embroidery shop sells mostly exquisite embroidery pieces, which are also quite expensive.
Lifelike insects and birds, graceful flowers, poetic and picturesque mountain scenery...all of them are precious items. The craftsmanship is comparable to that of the highest-level embroiderers in the capital.
Yang Lijun became a little concerned.
"What do you want to see?"
The owner of this embroidery shop is also a woman.
He is older than Yang Lijun, probably nearly fifty years old. His weather-beaten face has a amiable expression, yet there is a hint of sharpness in his expression.
Yang Lijun naturally felt her meaningful gaze.
But she was fearless.
"Mother-in-law, can we just take a look?"
Huang Mulin fully utilizes his advantages as a baby.
The woman looked at Huang Mulin and nodded with a smile: "Whatever you like, come find me if you like."
After saying that, he didn't wait for their response and went back to the counter to do his own thing.
He Jialing was not at all bothered by the casual confrontation between her elders. All her attention was attracted by the exquisite embroidery hanging in the store.
He Hui Niang couldn't take her eyes off it either.
For these girls who have been doing embroidery since childhood, these skills are so fascinating.
Huang Mulin was just appreciating it.
She got down from Yang Lijun's arms and strolled around the shop, looking left and right. There was a screen that was particularly eye-catching. She looked at it for a long time and didn't even notice the owner of the embroidery shop coming to her.
"Like this?"
the woman asked.
Huang Muhui turned around and looked at her: "I like it, it's very beautiful."
"Just pretty?"
After a little hesitation, Huang Mulin said, "Maybe... I'm a little frustrated."
The woman's eyes lit up.
What made Huang Mulin feel this way was a kitten lying in the lower left corner of the screen. Although its posture was lazy and relaxed, its eyes were slightly narrowed and looking straight into the distance, with sharpness and... unwillingness.
The needlework is so lifelike that the expressions reproduced are almost perfect and real.
