Chapter 409 The Vain Little Aunt 9
She mentioned that she often went to the embroidery workshop to sell handkerchiefs, and the town was not particularly crowded today, so it would be fine for her to go to the embroidery workshop.
Seeing that her sister-in-law insisted on going by herself, Wang Lan agreed.
But before Ah Zhi left, Wang Lan still reminded him repeatedly that he must come to her if he encountered any problems.
If anything really happened to Azhi in town, Mrs. Xiang would definitely skin me alive when I returned home.
Xiang Qingcao was feeling helpless standing by, thinking that his mother was simply causing trouble for herself.
Wouldn't it be okay if you didn't bring the other person along from the beginning?
In the past, Xiang Yun’s embroidery skills were average, and a handkerchief was still worth ten cents.
Ten cents is not a small amount of money for an ordinary family, but Xiang Yun is too lazy. She only embroiders one or two handkerchiefs and sells them for some cash so that she can buy new jewelry.
Ah Zhi had the memory of her original self selling handkerchiefs, and this double-sided handkerchief with three different embroidery patterns in her hand was sold out in no time.
This handkerchief is indeed beautifully embroidered, but the embroidery pattern is too small.
The embroidery workshop gave a reasonable price, five hundred coins for all ten handkerchiefs.
One thousand wen is equal to one tael of silver. Today, Ahzhi earned five taels of silver by selling handkerchiefs.
The shopkeeper looked at the handkerchief and exclaimed in amazement, "It's really beautiful. It can be sold at a good price in the capital. I didn't expect such craftsmanship to exist in this small place."
This world already has double-sided embroidery, as well as Suzhou embroidery, but no double-sided three-different embroidery. It is very rare to have double-sided embroidery that is exactly the same.
It is extremely difficult to have three different embroidery on both sides, and the whole embroidery will be ruined if you are not careful.
The owner of the embroidery shop looked at Ah Zhi and asked curiously, "Where are you from, young lady? Who taught you? How do you have such skills?"
Such good embroidery work cannot be done without a master. Even though Ahzhi had her face covered, the owner of the embroidery workshop could still tell that she was very young.
To be so young and have such great skills, there must be a master with superb embroidery skills guiding and guiding her.
Azhi has already put away the five taels of silver.
"I am a local, but I like to study on my own. I don't know who my teacher is."
Seeing that the other party was unwilling to tell the truth, the embroidery shop owner did not force it.
"No problem, miss, next time you have embroidery, just send it back to me, we are willing to buy it at a high price."
Such handkerchiefs are valuable no matter where they are given, and are especially loved by the ladies and daughters of dignitaries.
Azhi nodded to the owner of the embroidery workshop.
"Okay, thank you."
After leaving the embroidery workshop, Azhi did not go shopping because she could not carry the things she bought, so she went to the clinic mentioned by Wang Lan.
Xiang Qingcao has been examined and her body has almost recovered. The doctor said she can lead a normal life and does not need to lie in bed to rest anymore.
Originally, Xiang Qingcao wanted to go shopping with Wang Lan.
However, Wang Lan insisted on staying in the clinic and waiting for Azhi.
Xiang Qingcao had no choice but to go buy things by herself.
Wang Lan was relieved when she saw Azhi coming back. She walked forward to look Azhi in the face to make sure that he was okay.
"Little sister, how are your embroidery sales going? Is it going well? Why did you come here just now? I was really worried about you."
If I really lost my sister-in-law, Mrs. Xiang would definitely skin myself alive.
Ah Zhi shook his head towards Wang Lan. "I'm fine. Everything went well. Where's Qingcao? Why can't I see her?"
Wang Lan looked helpless when she mentioned her daughter.
"Just now the doctor said that she has recovered, and this girl ran out in a hurry. She must be bored at home. It's okay, let her go. She is very brave."
At this time, Xiang Qingcao walked back. Looking at the basket on her back, she must have bought a lot of things.
Wang Lan walked forward to take a look at the backpack, and just as she was about to say something, Xiang Qingcao grabbed her arm.
"Mom, let's go back quickly. If grandma doesn't see little aunt, she will be very worried."
She was afraid that her own mother would say something, wouldn't that hold her back?
Wang Lan saw that her daughter's eyes were full of disapproval and could only helplessly follow her actions.
Azhi, who was following nearby, did not seem angry at all about Qingcao's defensive behavior.
If I'm not careful enough, can the other party still be the heroine of a farming novel?
Xiang Qingcao kept a close eye on her backpack along the way, but she had planned everything but never expected to run into Zhou Yan when she returned home.
Zhou Yan looked at Xiang Qingcao with her eyes slightly narrowed.
"Stop, Xiang Qingcao, what are you doing sneaking around like that? Are you doing something bad behind our backs?"
Zhou Yan had always been at odds with Xiang Qingcao. She didn't dare to offend Xiang Po's favorite child, but she was full of disdain for Xiang Qingcao.
He thought that his status was higher than Xiang Qingcao's in any way, and he wanted to learn from Xiang Yun to order Xiang Qingcao around.
But Xiang Qingcao still knew what was more important. Xiang Yun was her biological aunt, and she was her elder.
Zhou Yan is just the stepdaughter brought by the second aunt, and has no blood relationship with her.
Xiang Qingcao always pretended not to hear Zhou Yan's instructions.
Different from her original body who was inherently arrogant and disdainful, Zhou Yan was completely ambitious but fragile, and she started to daydream as soon as she had a more pretty look.
Xiang Qingcao turned his head and stared at Zhou Yan, rolling his eyes.
"Where I go has nothing to do with you. Do you need to worry about it? Zhou Yan, you should take care of yourself. You are almost an old maid. We in the Xiang family don't support people who eat for free."
As for her step-granddaughter Zhou Yan, Xiang Pozi only cares about her food and not her life.
If she still can't find a husband to marry her when she turns 18, she plans to marry Zhou Yan to someone random.
But would Zhou Yan be interested in a village peasant?
Faced with Xiang Qingcao's sarcastic remarks, Zhou Yan pointed at her face and turned purple with anger.
"You're talking too much!"
Seeing that the two seemed to be about to start a fight, Wang Lan hurried forward, grabbed her daughter and scolded her softly.
"Qingcao, what nonsense are you talking about?"
My parents-in-law are already very unhappy about the dispute between the two families.
Wang Lan didn't want to continue to provoke conflicts. She couldn't care less about Zhou Yan who was deliberately making trouble on the other side, so she chose to persuade her daughter.
When Zhou Yan saw Wang Lan pulling Xiang Qingcao, she actually felt that she had the upper hand.
He pointed at the basket on Xiang Qingcao's back and said, "Did you go to town to buy some goodies and then carry them on our backs to eat them all by yourself? I saw it all. You and your daughter went to town."
Obviously, Azhi, who was standing beside him, went to the town with them, but Zhou Yan didn't dare to offend him so she didn't mention it. She is really picking on the weak.
Seeing that her daughter was very unconvinced and wanted to rush up to argue with Zhou Yan, Wang Lan wanted to calm things down.
"Yanzi, you really misunderstood. I took your sister to see a doctor in town. Your sister has been lying in bed for too long these days."
"Now that the doctor has confirmed that she is fine, she can help out in the fields and share some of the housework at home."
