Yang Lele was a little worried now, and stretched out her hand to pull Ning Mengyao's sleeve: "Can mine work?"

"Don't worry, it will be okay. Let's go." Ning Mengyao patted Yang Lele's hand comfortingly and said with a smile.

She has seen all of Yang Lele's embroidery work, and the embroidery is very good. It is completely feasible to sell it here, but she is not confident.

"Ah, isn't this Mengyao? You're here, what good things have you brought for me this time?" The boss lady of the embroidery shop's eyes became bright when she saw Ning Mengyao. Ning Mengyao had brought her before A screen, that screen was very good. The price she gave Ning Mengyao was high, but she sold it even higher. Someone had come to ask if there was any more, but Ning Mengyao never came, so she could only be disappointed.

"Aunt Luo, there are things at home recently, so I came late. This time it's a screen. Lele, this is the proprietress of the embroidery shop, and her husband's surname is Luo. Just call her Aunt Luo." Ning Mengyao introduced Yang Lele to Aunt Luo. .

Yang Lele called out awkwardly: "Hello, Aunt Luo."

The timid eyes made Aunt Luo couldn't help but laugh: "This girl is too shy, but she is a good child. Let's take a look at the screen first and catch up on old times later."

"good."

Ning Mengyao took out the screen. It was a picture of a lady holding a fan.

Aunt Luo turned to look at Ning Mengyao: "You haven't finished the screen yet?"

"Well, there are a total of eighteen pictures of this lady, and this is just one of them." What Ning Mengyao embroidered was one of the Eighteen Hairpins of Jinling.

"It's really good." Just from this look, Aunt Luo can tell that this whole set of screens is extraordinary. If all of them are really released, even if they are not sold, the effect of putting them in her own store for promotion will definitely be the same. very good.

Thinking of this, Aunt Luo started to think twice and looked at Ning Mengyao: "Aunt Luo wants this screen from Mengyao, and I'll give you one hundred taels for it."

"Okay, it will probably take me a month and a half to make one."

"I have this time to wait. If this thing is hung in the store, it will be a living sign." Aunt Luo said her plan directly and generously.

Ning Mengyao couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, while Yang Lele was completely dumbfounded. One hundred taels for a screen? If all eighteen of these were embroidered, wouldn't it be one thousand eight hundred taels? When did embroidery become so valuable

After selling her screen, Ning Mengyao took out the purses and handkerchiefs embroidered by Yang Lele and put them on the cabinet on the side: "Aunt Luo, please help me take a look. Don't criticize me for my sake." , say it with your eyes." She wanted Yang Lele to find confidence and know that her embroidery is actually very good.

Aunt Luo looked at Ning Mengyao, and then at Yang Lele who was a little uneasy, she immediately understood what she meant.

I took all the purses and handkerchiefs and looked at them, from the stitches to the patterns.

He picked out a few of them, pointed at those ones and said: "These stitches are still a bit unfamiliar, and the patterns they embroider don't look as sharp as the others, but the rest are very good, the formations, patterns , color matching, these are all very good, I want them all, but these few are not enough." Aunt Luo shook her head while taking the ones she picked out before.

Except for these few remaining purse handkerchiefs, all of them were embroidered very well. I think this is why Ning Mengyao taught her again.

When Yang Lele heard Aunt Luo's comment, she was worried at first, but when she heard Aunt Luo say that except for those few, she suddenly felt stupid and seemed a little confused about the situation.

Seeing her like this, Ning Mengyao explained to Aunt Luo: "When she came here with me, she had been worried about her embroidery skills."

"So that's it, this is your apprentice?" Aunt Luo teased with a smile. Judging from the acupuncture skills, this girl is very talented and a good seer.

"Half an apprentice, but we are good friends. I have to ask Aunt Luo to take care of Lele in the future." Ning Mengyao smiled gently.
