After Chu Liuchen left, Qin Wanru called Aunt Dong over and asked her to go out with Wang Feng starting tomorrow to see if there were any suitable stores. She wanted to open an embroidery and accessories store in Beijing.
Dong Xiuer's leg has improved a lot because of Qin Wanru's recent diagnosis and treatment. Aunt Dong is even more grateful and respectful to Qin Wanru.
When she heard that Qin Wanru was going to send her out to select a location, she nodded repeatedly, but she also told Qin Wanru that the location selection could not be done in a hurry, and she had to choose carefully and not rush it.
She was also new to the capital and was not familiar with the city. She had to first check the road conditions, the rents at various street corners and the shops on the streets before she could make a decision. She also had to see if there was anyone there. She wanted to sell it, but she was afraid that Qin Wanru, a little girl, wouldn't understand this. Aunt Dong's words also gave Qin Wanru reassurance.
Qin Wanru smiled and agreed that Aunt Dong had full authority to decide on this matter.
She didn't understand this matter, so it was best for Aunt Dong to make the final decision. She could see that Aunt Dong sincerely wanted to help her choose a good place.
Now that the matter was settled, Aunt Dong went down, but she bumped into Qingxue at the door. Fortunately, both of them were not walking fast, but even so, Aunt Dong was still shaken by the collision. On the other hand, Yujie on the other side helped her with quick eyes and hands.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, is Aunt Dong hurt?" Qingxue hurriedly put the tray in her hand on the little maid behind her, and said with concern on her face.
Her voice was gentle and soft, and she was smiling before she said anything, which was very pleasing to people.
The reason why we bumped into each other just now was actually not her fault alone. Aunt Dong herself was also a little anxious when she came out.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Aunt Dong said with a smile. She also respected Qin Wanru's maid in the yard. Although her arm did hurt from the impact, she didn't show it at this moment.
"You'd better go to my house and take a look first. If you are really injured, apply some medicinal wine early to avoid really hurting your muscles and bones." Qingxue said softly, reaching out and pulling Aunt Dong to her. Go to the house where you live.
"Then I'll trouble Miss Qingxue!" Aunt Dong was helpless, and she was really hurt from being hit.
Watching the two people pulling away, Yujie turned back and entered the house: "Miss, Qingxue bumped into Aunt Dong and took Aunt Dong to her room, saying she was going to see if Aunt Dong was injured. ."
"Aunt Dong has passed?" Qin Wanru raised her eyes and thought for a moment and asked.
"Originally Aunt Dong didn't go over, but then Qingxue said that if she was injured, she should apply some medicinal wine early to avoid hurting her muscles and bones!" Yu Jie could only hear clearly and see clearly. She could see that Aunt Dong had been injured before. I didn't want to go, I just went there after hearing Qingxue's words.
"She is good at catching people's hearts!" Qin Wanru smiled slightly. Dong Xiuer missed the opportunity at that time, which made the injury more serious. Qingxue took advantage of this to make Aunt Dong willingly follow her.
"Are you still arranging her and Qu Le to be together?"
"My dear lady, it's better to arrange them together." Yu Jie nodded.
"Then just let Qu Le continue to keep an eye on her! She just came to the capital, and she has already started to act like a monster!" Qin Wanru snorted coldly. When she was in Jiangzhou, there was almost no movement in Qingxue. Now that she has just arrived in the capital, she A move has been made, and it looks like someone can't hold it back any longer.
But it was best for them to hold their breath. She was trying to find out more about the seal. She had looked at the small seal countless times, but she just couldn't understand the connection between it and herself.
In the last life, Qin Yuru relied on this seal to win the favor of the Madam of Xingguo Palace, and Qin Yuru also said that the seal was hers, so the most likely thing is that this seal is related to her life experience, but she looked around, She couldn't see what was in it. In that case, she would start with Di Shi and Qin Yuru.
"Are you going to make a dress?" Qin Wanru walked to the window, filled the inkstone with a pen, and asked slowly.
The Qin Mansion had a tradition in previous years that the masters would make several sets of clothes for each season. When they were in Jiangzhou, they were busy moving, so they did not pay attention to clothes. The winter clothes that should have been made early have not been made yet.
"It's time to make clothes. I just heard what Aunt Duan said when she came here, saying that the sewing room would come to tailor the lady's clothes." Yu Jie replied.
Just now when Qin Wanru was taking a nap, Aunt Duan brought over the maids she had chosen yesterday and asked Aunt Yu to arrange their respective servants. She also had a conversation with Yu Jie. Qin Wanru had asked her to inquire before. Naturally, she was more thoughtful about the clothes-making business in the house and inquired about it.
"How long does it take to come here?" Qin Wanru reached out and unbuttoned the top two buttons of his collar, pulled out the small seal hanging around his neck, took it off and placed it on the table, following the pattern on it. Start painting.
"Whether it's today or tomorrow, Grandma Duan said that Mrs. Shui wanted to measure the clothes for Mrs. Di and the eldest young lady first, and then give them to the second young lady. This may take some time!" Yu Jie said.
Qin Wanru knew what Shui Ruolan meant. Although she was in charge of internal affairs now, her foundation was not stable after all. At this time, she should show respect for her first wife and his first daughter-in-law.
"Okay, if the people from the sewing room come, give them this pattern and let them embroider it on the corners of a new dress for me!" Qin Wanru put down the pen and looked at the paper. I looked at the bluegrass pattern on the seal again, and then put away the seal with satisfaction.
If she remembers well, Qin Yuru had several dresses with similar patterns at that time, and she liked to wear them whenever she went to the Xingguo Duke's mansion.
"Miss..." Yu Jie just stood next to her and could see clearly that the orchid grass pattern was drawn by her lady according to the small seal, but the drawings were not exactly the same, and were even very different in some aspects. , hesitated for a moment, and said, "Miss, these two patterns are different!"
"Just to make it different!" Qin Wanru smiled slightly, picked up the paper and walked to the window to look at it.
They are indeed different. Some leaves are drawn in different directions, but the shape of the orchid is still very similar, especially the leaf that seems to be exposed but not exposed, but it is exactly the same as the one on the seal.
Before she knew the truth, she didn't want to expose herself. There seemed to be different secrets in her life experience, and some things were slowly revealed.
She wants to slowly stir up the water!
She didn't know what was going on with Duke Xingguo's wife. She had never even seen her in her previous life. She only knew that Duke Xingguo's wife liked Qin Yuru inexplicably, and she even brought Qin Yuru to Duke Xingguo's mansion to raise her as a legitimate daughter. After a while, even when Qin Yuru got married, the madam even gave Qin Yuru a dowry!
As a result, Qin Yuru not only became known as a talented woman, but she was also able to marry into the Yong-Kangbo Mansion with a red dot of ten miles, which brought her glory for a while!
However, because the madam loved her too much, Qin Yuru did not marry early, but waited until she was eighteen to marry. She was very pampered, even more fond of her than her granddaughters in the house.
Of course, this preference was what Qin Yuru said arrogantly in front of her. She said that because the madam liked her so much, she didn't like her marrying early, so she stayed for so long. Even the granddaughter of Duke Xingguo's family couldn't compare with her. of.
But what makes Qin Wanru feel strange is that Mrs. Xingguo has met her, but every time she has met her, she has been unhappy, and it has even made Qin Wanru more and more disgusted with Mrs. Xingguo, who has an excellent reputation outside!
The first time he saw her was at Di's place. Qin Wanru even felt that she came to the house that day just to see her. Di stayed with her cautiously, while she stood with her head lowered in front of Mrs. Xingguo. .
At that moment, all she could feel was Mrs. Xingguo's coldness and disgust, deep disgust.
She was trembling with fear at the time, thinking that Mrs. Xingguo didn't like her because she heard about her bad reputation, but after her rebirth, she felt that this was very suspicious.
As Mrs. Xingguo, even if she really didn't like herself, she didn't have to call her over. She looked at herself with disgust without saying a word, looked up and down for a long time, and then let herself go back without saying a word. The whole process , she had not spoken to him directly, but Qin Wanru could feel the deep disgust even without a single bad word.
Especially when I walked outside and heard the Duke of Xingguo saying mockingly to Mrs. Di: "This is the second young lady in your house. She is really... mud can't hold up the wall!"
She didn't hear clearly what was said after that. She only sensed Di's fawning voice. Then her marriage, which she was repeatedly withdrawn from, was all related to Duke Xingguo's mansion and his wife.
If you think about it carefully, there must be an inevitable connection between it and it is related to your own life experience and even to the Xingguo Palace.
In this life, Di has not yet climbed up to Duke Xingguo's palace, and has not yet colluded with Duke Xingguo's wife to influence her marriage. What she has to do is to discover that connection first.
The seal is the key!
"Yes, miss, this servant knows!" Yu Jie took the half-dried drawing paper, carefully placed it on the side of the table, and held it down with paper.
"How many patterns like this do you want to embroider?"
"One, just embroider one piece of clothing, just embroider one on the corner of the dress!" Qin Wanru thought for a while and said, before she knew clearly whether she was an enemy or not, she would not reveal her true identity. She was just a Similar patterns, she wanted to see if there was a connection between them.
She will gradually figure out the things that she did not understand until her death in her previous life, so that she will never repeat the same mistakes of her previous life.
The manpower in the sewing room was already prepared when the steward came to the house. He knew that the masters would definitely make clothes for the season after coming to the capital. They couldn't attend the banquet in the capital and still wear old clothes!
It was my first time to shine in the circle of aristocratic families in Beijing. I always hoped that I would stand out and integrate in faster.
The sewing room was staffed very quickly, and in the evening, five women came over. Not only did they bring rulers, but they also brought a lot of embroidered satin. It was the first time they measured clothes for the master, and they were also very careful!
Something happened when I was getting my clothes measured at the eldest lady's place just now...
