Chapter 213: A Purse Embroidered with Two Human Heads
No one expected Aunt Sun and Heizi to leave so soon.
Although they would not delay until February like Jing Chunxi did, and everything should be done after the Lantern Festival, they still left.
The eighth day of the first lunar month was the date when Aunt Sun and Heizi set out. Unlike Jing Yongcheng's idea of sending Jing Chunxi back to Beijing, they did not want to wait until spring came and the flowers bloomed. Instead, they wanted to avoid pedestrians as much as possible and avoid the government offices that would normally be on duty after the fifteenth day. They set out when there were few pedestrians on the road and no one was paying attention.
They set out in the early morning without saying goodbye and few people at home knew about it, so no one saw them off. They just left in a carriage and on horseback. It was not known whether Tao Jin had arranged any secret guards.
It was only after asking Tao Jin that Jing Chunxi learned that the scabs on Aunt Sun's face had already fallen off and the scars on her face had indeed disappeared, but the red marks were still very obvious. Fortunately, the bottle of medicine had not been used up and could still be used a few more times.
The night before Heizi left, he gave Xiaotuanzi a small dagger, which he carved out of wood. Later, Xiaotuanzi showed it to Jing Chunxi. There were strange patterns engraved on the handle of the dagger, which looked a bit like some symbols and a bit like words.
After the Lantern Festival, the Jing family members began to get busy with the people in the village, some planting vegetables and some plowing the soil.
Jing Chunxi couldn't stop either. She and Jing Changning went to the county town several times. Tao Jin liked to follow them like a little tail every time, but he would go straight away when he arrived at the county town and would only go together on the way back.
Xiaobei’s grandfather also went in person to get the marriage certificate between him and Lin.
Every time, a lot of books were brought back, as well as things that Zhuang specifically requested to be added. In short, the money in the public treasury still could not be spent.
The sweet potato vines, potatoes, and taro seeds in the space were escorted by two guards along the convoy five times before they were all sent back. They were delivered directly to the fields via the road around the outermost part of the village.
After the second day of February,
This was the day Jing Chunxi was leaving. The date was set by Jing Yongcheng according to the old almanac, which was said to be very conducive to travel.
The car, which was converted from a gorgeous horse-drawn carriage, was gray, but its foundation was really good, and Jingyi was driving it.
Besides Tang Shuang, Chun Tao also accompanied Jing Chunxi back. Although they had two secret guards and four guards arranged by Uncle Zhou Wei, they still followed the caravan for safety reasons. The caravan was also arranged by Tao Jin. A carriage with four plainclothes horsemen mixed in with the huge caravan and was not noticeable.
Jing Chunxi only delivered the purse the night before departure.
"There are three in total. Take your pick. This is the best I can do."
Jing Chunxi lined up the three purses in a row and showed him his right hand with a look of grievance. His palm was white, tender and a little fleshy, but his fingers were very long, like freshly peeled spring bamboo shoots. However, there were puncture marks on the tips of several fingers. The blood marks were gone, and the white skin that was about to fall off could be seen.
The man gently held her fingertips and said, "Your hands have suffered so much, but your skills have not improved. It shows that the embroiderer is very stupid." She thought that the slap in the face that would follow did not come.
The gentle touch of the palm was still as warm as in a dream. Perhaps because the weather was getting warmer, Jing Chunxi actually felt a hint of heat.
Tao Jin thought the little girl would pout again, but Jing Chunxi was unusually patient: "I really put a lot of thought into it! Which one do you think you can wear? If none of them suit you, I can also give you a jade pendant."
She had already picked out a piece of white jade from the space and even weaved an ugly rope around it, but she still kept it in her arms.
When Jing Chunxi first tried her hand at embroidering purses, she embroidered bunnies, butterflies, goldfish, and the like. But when she let slip that it was for Tao Jin, her third aunt realized she was going to give it to him. Then she said, "Young Master Tao is getting older, and even at his age, he's not suited to those fancy designs. I'll just draw you a simple bamboo fern."
The asparagus fern painted by the third aunt only has two bamboo stalks and three bamboo leaves on a branch. It is very simple, but Jing Chunxi still spent seven or eight days embroidering it. The traces of her own dismantling and re-embroidering when she was not satisfied are still there. It can't be said to be ugly, but most people really won't wear it.
There are two human heads embroidered on another purse, one male and one female, but without any necks. Fortunately, the embroidery is done with bright silk threads. If it were done with black background and white threads...
It was only a few days later that Jing Chunxi saw Pu Ge'er's portrait again and suddenly had the idea to embroider it on the spur of the moment, thinking that it would definitely be criticized by Tao Jin.
There is also an ugliest one, which was embroidered when I first started practicing. It looks weird and was just picked out randomly to make up the number.
“Indeed~~”
Tao Jin held back his laughter for a long time. He thought he would choose the bamboo one, but he grabbed all three purses in his hands. He thought he would throw them in the trash can, but he said, "I can wear them in turns."
After saying that, she hung the purse with two human heads around her waist. Jing Chunxi wanted to cover her face, feeling extremely embarrassed. If she knew he would really hang it on his body, she might as well just embroider a simple gold leaf. As long as the edges were sewn properly, the gold thread in the middle would be perfect no matter how poorly it was embroidered.
The beautiful big hand reached out to her again: "Give it to me!"
"What?" Jing Chunxi was a little confused. Hadn't they all been taken?
Tao Jin: "You didn't tell me and gave me the jade pendant?"
Jing Chunxi: "You are cheating." She clearly said that she gave the jade pendant because she didn't like the wallet, so how could she want so much?
Tao Jin's eyes were full of smiles: "How long can you wear such an ugly thing?" His tone was disgusted again, but his smile remained unchanged, and it was clear that he wanted to get the jade pendant.
Jing Chunxi looked reluctant, but at this moment she was still very happy that someone thought of her gift. After all, Tao Jin had done so much for her, and just thinking about the car and the two secret guards made her feel it was worth it. She also knew that it would probably be a long time before they would see each other again, so she might as well consider it as one last favor for him!
The milky white Hetian jade is very warm and smooth. It is smaller than the black jade, but it can be seen that it is of top quality.
It was a Hetian jade seed jade, with a yellow cotton wool in the middle that was particularly conspicuous. When Jing Chunxi chose it, he initially thought it was a crack and wanted to give up.
Later, when I picked it up and held it under the light, I found that it was a golden cotton wool. The bright golden cotton wool was floating inside the jade. It was thin and long, like a golden dragon. When viewed from different angles, the dragon was very agile, as if it were alive.
Tao Jin also played with it in his hands, and after carefully examining it, he found its uniqueness and immediately liked it. Finally, he hung the black lanyard around his neck and straightened his collar.
After a long while, he looked at Jing Chunxi, showing a rare smile, and said, "This jade is excellent!"
Neither of them said goodbye. The next day, he personally sent Jing Chunxi and his party to the county town and handed them over to the caravan before leaving.
I was riding a horse alone, all alone.
And his original chestnut horse was taken away by Jing Chunxi.
