Chapter 69 Playing Chess
On the way back, Su Wan said that she hadn't seen Su Yuejian for several days, so she followed her back to Wutongju to sit for a while.
Yuzhu and Yinxin served tea and snacks.
Yuzhu raised her hand and handed the teacup to Su Yuejian.
Su Wan took a sip of tea and said, "Sister Yue's tea is the most fragrant and mellow I have ever tasted."
Su Yuejian chuckled, "Sister Wan likes it. I'll make more and send them to you in the future."
Su Wan took another sip, smiled and nodded, "How can that be good?"
She paused, "Actually... I have something I'd like to ask Sister Yue for help with."
Su Yuejian was silent for a while before speaking, "If it's about moving out..."
"No, it's not about that. I know moving out is a matter of time, but the Su family's business needs to be settled in Kyoto first. What I'm asking for today is about business."
Su Yuejian was puzzled.
"Sister Yue should have heard that our second branch was in the silk and satin textile business, but now it's declining, so we have to find another way out."
"My maternal grandparents have an ancestral embroidery needlework technique that allows them to create calligraphy and paintings using the double-sided, fully embroidered style of Hunan embroidery. So a few days ago, my uncle contacted the Xie family to discuss collaborating on this technique and joining the Xie family's shop."
"But Patriarch Xie said that he needed us to provide some embroidery first, and he would only agree after he was satisfied with it."
Su Yuejian said excitedly, "Double-sided embroidery, there are not many people in Tianjin who can do this kind of needlework. Sister Wan is amazing, she has this skill!"
Su Wan nodded shyly and smiled slightly, "I have prepared the embroidery, but I always feel that something is missing, so I want to ask my sister for calligraphy and write a poem on it."
Although she was also knowledgeable in poetry and literature, she could only succeed in this matter and could not fail. In order to ensure everything went well, she still came to Su Yuejian for help.
Su Yuejian nodded, "No problem, I wonder what sister is embroidering."
Su Wan was overjoyed when she heard this. She didn't expect Su Yuejian to agree so readily!
"There are two embroidery pieces in total. If you are free right now, I can ask Xiao Fu to go back to Dan Gui Xuan and get them."
Su Wan said immediately, fearing that Su Yuejian would change her mind.
Su Yuejian nodded and smiled, "Okay."
Su Wan immediately signaled to Xiaofu, who took the order and left quickly.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xiao Fu came back with two embroidery pieces and the prepared embroidery draft paper.
Su Wan and Xiao Fu opened the embroidery and walked up to Su Yuemian.
Su Yuejian was wearing a veil, and she stroked it carefully with her hands, and said with a smile,
"I heard that Xiang embroidery can make flowers smell fragrant, embroidered birds can hear sounds, and embroidered people can convey spirits. I feel that the stitches of your sister's embroidery are very delicate!"
Yuzhu and Yinxin also praised it.
"Yes, Miss Wan is amazing! This is the first time I've seen double-sided embroidery! This beauty's embroidery is so realistic!"
"This lotus is so beautiful. This fish looks like three from the front, but only two from the back. Not only are they different shapes, but they're also different colors. So beautiful!"
Su Wan was a little embarrassed by their praise, and smiled.
"Sister Yue's talent is well known in Kyoto. Just write a few words as you like."
After listening to the descriptions of several people, Su Yuejian thought for a moment at the desk and then finished writing.
Su Wan took the embroidery manuscript paper and couldn't help but admire the two lines of poetry on it.
"Thank you, Sister Yue. You are truly the most talented woman in Tianjin!"
"Sister Wan, you're welcome."
Su Wan happily pulled her and thanked her repeatedly. After sitting for a while, she took the embroidery and calligraphy back to Danguixuan.
Into the night
With the experience from last time, Su Yuejian was well prepared this time and waited in the dark corner at the back door of the Su Mansion in advance.
Seeing a familiar carriage coming from the front, Su Yuejian immediately stepped forward to stop it.
Without waiting for Xuanfeng to speak, Su Yuejian stepped straight into the carriage.
Xiao Heng, who was in the car, was stunned when he saw the girl coming in, and then a faint laugh escaped from his throat.
Su Yuejian ignored him and sat aside calmly.
"Miss Su's outfit is quite special."
Su Yuejian looked down at her clothes.
She originally wanted to sneak out in a low-key manner, so she specially prepared a tight black outfit like Xuanshuang, and tied her hair into a high ponytail.
However, there were many people coming and going in the mansion, and the plan failed. In the end, Xuanshuang carried her over the wall.
"Cough cough..."
She coughed twice to hide her embarrassment.
"I'm just doing this to make it easier to go out."
"Yes, but I remember we are going to heal, not to fight."
When Su Yue saw the teasing look on his face, she knew he was teasing her.
He didn't argue with him anymore, snorted coldly, and glared at him unhappily.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Heng's smile became even more pronounced.
Even the fierce ones look so cute.
Although the journey was not long, he still prepared some leisure toys.
"Does Miss Su know how to play chess?"
Su Yuejian raised an eyebrow.
"know a bit."
"Why not have a plate then?"
Su Yuejian looked at the chessboard in front of her and readily agreed.
The two men were evenly matched, fighting back and forth until it was difficult to determine the winner.
"Did Gu Congyu also teach you how to play chess?"
"Grandpa taught me for a while, but then he stopped."
Xiao Heng continued to ask,
"Why?"
"because...."
She paused, then placed the last piece on the chessboard.
She raised her head, raised her eyebrows and smiled at him complacently, her beautiful amber eyes shone even more brightly under the candlelight.
She continued her previous words,
"Because he doesn't like losing to me, like this."
Xiao Heng followed her gaze to the chessboard. He lost.
He curved his lips and chuckled softly, looking at her with eyes full of tenderness and doting.
When Su Yue saw his bewitching and affectionate eyes, she was stunned at first, then immediately lowered her head and immersed herself in tidying up the chessboard.
Just then the carriage stopped and Xuan Feng outside called out, "Your Highness, we're here."
Su Yuejian got off the carriage as if escaping.
I secretly complained in my heart, beauty is really attractive, luckily she has self-control!
Qi Yuan didn't come this time, not because he didn't want to come.
In fact, he succumbed to someone's pressure, and that person threatened him with Su Yuejian's new tea.
Because I gave Qi Yuan the prescription for the medicine bag last time.
This time, Xuan Yu had already calculated the time and prepared the medicinal bath.
The treatment was successfully completed after two hours.
On the way back, Xiao Heng asked her to play two more games of chess. They won one and lost one, and were evenly matched.
Although he lost the game, he felt very happy. My Zhaozhao is really smart.
Su Yuejian suddenly asked.
"Your Majesty, have you found the whereabouts of those three medicinal herbs?"
He replied calmly, "Not yet."
Su Yuejian frowned.
He was thinking that the Xie family's business was spread across four countries, and perhaps he could make use of the Xie family's connections, but he didn't know what reason he should find to tell Xie Jiusi.
When Xiao Heng saw her frowning in thought, he knew that she was thinking of something new.
He didn't like her like this, and said in a deep voice,
"My people are already doing their best to look for him, don't worry."
Su Yuejian came back to her senses, nodded and smiled.
Soon they arrived at the place and Xuanshuang took her back.
Xiao Heng looked at the half-played chessboard in the carriage, a smile still lingering in his eyes.
It seemed that since she knew they had known each other as children, she had become less reserved towards him.
He chuckled, then sat up straight, and in an instant turned back into the cold and indifferent regent.
He said coldly, "Go back home."
The night was silent, and the sound of horse hooves gradually faded into the dark alley.
