Bai Lan didn't want to use it, and she wasn't smart enough to use it.
As for the two men from Cui Zhu, they seemed to have become invisible in the courtyard. Ye Yuning would not take the initiative to call them over. Anyone could tell that these two were already hated by Ye Yuning.
Since he was free in the morning, Ye Yuning took the embroidery strung and the embroidery thread to the Warm Pavilion to embroider flowers. Her Lil 'Red couldn't be considered good, but she had made up for it for a long time before she got married in her previous life, so the embroidery was still passable.
And the thing that Ye Yuning was most proficient at was the goldfish.
In his previous life, after the incident with Li Changle, Ye Yuning stayed indoors without leaving her house. Afraid that she was bored, Ye Shenghe spent a lot of money to buy a few goldfish and keep them in her room.
Ye Yuning really liked and cherished those goldfish. Every day, shshewould personally feed them and when she was bored, he would sit down and watch them. After a long time, she could even draw the appearance of goldfish with her eyes closed. A few days ago, she had embroidered a black bag for herself and carried it with him.
Now, what she was embroidering wasn't a purse, but a small screen.
"Miss, why did you think of the embroidery screen? There are a lot of screens in the warehouse. If you want to change them, then this servant will bring them over for you. " Bai Lan moved to the side and said.
"Mom's birthday is coming up in two months. When that happens, I'll give her a handmade present." Ye Yuning didn't even raise his head, he stabbed the needle into the cloth line by line. Although his movements were slow, at least the patterns embroidered on the cloth weren't crooked.
Lady Wen liked lotuses the most, so she planned to embroider a picture of a fish playing with lotus.
Bai Lan did not dare to disturb her, and helped to pick the line for Ye Yuning.
At this point, the embroidery lines were all purchased from the embroidery workshop, and the embroidery workshop's threads were all of the same thickness, so they could not be used completely. Thus, sometimes it was necessary to split the threads, and then pick out the unnecessary and inappropriate threads. Bai Lan was too serious that she didn't notice anything going on outside the house.
"Put the purple ones here, and the yellow one over there …" Xiang Er brought two little maid s and placed pots of chrysanthemums below the porch.
Ye's Mansion had his own flower house, and since it was the season of blooming chrysanthemums, there were a lot of varieties of chrysanthemums. Xiang Er asked around and brought eight pots back.
The flowers she picked were all budding chrysanthemums. Each flower was like an umbrella that had been put away, swaying in the wind amidst the green leaves. After finishing his instructions, Xiang Er personally brought a pot of dark green chrysanthemum flowers into the Warm Pavilion.
"Miss, this is a precious variety that grew in the flower room this year, do you think it would be good to put it in your room?" Xiang Er said while standing at the door.
Ye Yuning raised her head and saw the chrysanthemum pot.
Old Mistress Duke of Pingjiang loved chrysanthemum the most. Every year, around the middle of autumn, the Hou Mansion would be filled with all kinds of chrysanthemums. And this Mo Jiu, was the one Fu Ranzhi admired the most. He would often place a pot of it in his study.
Seeing Ye Yuning's frown, Xiang Er could not help but feel apprehensive, she did not know where she had done so that the young miss would be unhappy, "If young miss is not happy, I will go change the pot over."
Ye Yuning pursed her lips, shook her head, and said: "Forget it, let's put you in the right room!" Xiang Er heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and walked into the main house, then placed the pot of Inulin on the Bogu shelf.
In the afternoon, Ye Yuning received Qin Du'er's invitation to visit the Qin Manor tomorrow. Initially, the two had agreed upon this invitation, but before Qin Du'er left, this would probably be the last chance to meet her.
Ye Yuning brought her invitation to meet the madame, and with the madame's consent, she went back to prepare clothes and accessories. After Lady Wen found out about this, she also picked out a few things for to give him as gifts. Seeing that Ye Yuning now had a close friend, Lady Wen was deeply moved.
The next day, early in the morning, Ye Yuning left the Palace, and went to the Han Group Incense Workshop to look for Master Qian.
The matter of going to open a shop in the capital had already been discussed, and all that remained was the matter of the prescription. After some discussion, the two decided on fifteen main spice recipes. One incense shop didn't need to sell too many fragrant items. Fifteen were enough, but new items would be required from time to time in order to keep the guests.
Ye Yuning and Master Qian started to differ on this matter. The two of them did not have much to say, so they could only give up for now.
At the beginning of the year, Ye Yuning's carriage arrived at the Qin Manor. Qin Du'er personally welcoming him at the second door scared Ye Yuning.
"Little sister, you're finally here!" Qin Du'er walked forward and pulled Ye Yuning's hand, smiling in an extremely intimate manner.
Ye Yuning was wearing an makeup dress today, and although the hem was embroidered with complicated peonies, the top part of her clothes were extremely simple, with only her sleeves embroidered with gold and silver threads, a jade green ribbon hung around her waist, and a jade pearl hairpin. She looked simple, but in the eyes of an interested person, one could see that her clothes were ridiculously expensive.
The jacket was made of brocade, the inner layer of the dress was brocade, and the outer layer of the dress was covered with mist and silk. The embroidery on the clothes came from one of the top four embroidery items, the Su embroidery!
Even a pair of shoes, with pearls the size of a fingernail, popped out from the hem of her skirt as she walked, making one's eyes light up. Qin Du'er looked at her carefully and smiled with satisfaction.
"Fortunately, you did what I told you to do, so that I could draw more perfectly." "Let's go, I'll take you to see my grandma and the others first." While talking, Qin Du'er pulled Ye Yuning through the two doors and headed towards the main courtyard.
The Qin family's manor was much smaller than the Ye's Mansion, but it was still exquisite and elegant.
Ye Yuning did not know much about the Qin family, she only knew that after the Old Master Qin passed away two years ago, there was a second master in his family. However, this second master was currently serving as an official in the capital, leaving behind his wife and children in Yin Zhou to take care of their families.
Master Qin was born from a concubine and moved out early on to establish his own family. Only the Qin Clan and the Qin Clan remained.
Master Qin San was also his son. He was younger than Second Master Qin by six years. He was not good at studying and helped with the handling of his family's domestic affairs.
Master Qin San was Qin Du'er's father.
Moreover, Master Qin Si was given by Old Master Qin's concubine and was named by the Old Madam. He was raised by the Old Mistress and had a good relationship with his two brothers.
Second Master Qin did not have any sisters in his generation, and the only daughter the four brothers had was Qin Du'er. Ye Yuning had originally only heard that she was finally able to see how she spoiled her granddaughter.
Once Qin Du'er entered the Old Granny's courtyard, she shouted "Grandmother" and ran inside. Ye Yuning leisurely followed behind, upon entering the house, she saw Qin Du'er jumping into Old Madam Qin's embrace, pulling on her clothes as she acted like a spoiled child, extremely similar to a child that had yet to experience the world.
The madame's clothes were torn apart, but she was still smiling and not angry. Her eyes were filled with doting. Second Madam Qin's face was helpless, but she did not say anything to stop her. It could be seen that this sort of behavior was not something that could be done in a day or two.
"Yu Ning greets Old Madam Qin, First Wife Qin." Ye Yuning went forward and bowed.
"Yo, this is the Third Miss Ye that Du'er is talking about? "Come over here and let this old woman have a look."
Ye Yuning raised her head, and walked up to the old lady.
