It had been a long time since he last saw Sister Gong. She seemed to have recovered from the pain of losing her daughter. Although she had lost a bit of weight, she was still in good spirits.

Normally, she would bring a little girl with her when she came here, but now the scene was gone. The two of us were sitting on the brick bed in a daze.

I pointed to the teacup in front of her and said smilingly, "Elder sister, try it. This tea is called 'Dian Hong'. The taste is very unique."

Gong Er's wife smiled as she responded. She raised her teacup and took a sip, continuously praising the taste.

"Miss, why did you call me here?" Putting down the teacup, she asked.

"There are some tasks that I would like to ask you for guidance!" I showed her the half-finished mark.

Second Wife Gong held onto her forehead and looked at it for a long time, before raising her head and asking: "Young Miss wants to use a stack of needles to embroider these petals?"

I nodded and pointed to the half-embroidered petal. "According to my thinking, the embroidery should be light and bright, but somehow it seems messy."

Gong's second daughter-in-law said regretfully, "This pattern is quite unique, it should be better to use a flat embroidery method. The stacking of stitches is more suitable for simple patterns. "

Even if he couldn't finish embroidery, how could he possibly embroider another one from the beginning?

Sweat oozed out of my head.

"However, it's not like there's no way to fix it." Gong's second daughter-in-law went to the sewing basket and took a piece of pink thread and twisted it into a red thread. With the help of a needle, she pierced it and began to embroider.

"Miss, do you think this is better?"

She walked around the pink border of the flower petals in a uneven manner, as if it was a natural transition.

"What an ingenious plan!" I couldn't help clapping my hands in praise.

Such a simple technique was vastly different.

"Why don't you give me the job? "I'll bring it back in three days. You can be satisfied with it."

I touched the embroidery on my forehead and refused with a smile.

"This is for Grandmother. Regardless of whether it is done with my own intentions or not."

Gong's second wife understood what I meant and stopped mentioning the matter.

When it was time for dinner, I left her to eat in my room. She laughed and refused, saying that she still had things to do at home, and I did not stay, but told her to come tomorrow afternoon and see her out.

After dinner, Lan Li, Lu Ke and I spent the whole night sewing, making more than half of a peony, and went to bed contented.

It was Dragon Boat Festival.

"Miss, it's time to wake up!" As soon as he opened his eyes, the room was filled with a verdant green color. The color of the Pear Blossom Wood was exceptionally fresh and elegant. Lan Yu, wearing a blue suit, smiled as she stood in front of my bed.

A few days ago I encouraged my grandmother to redecorate the house, and then to redecorate my own.

I stretched and saw the multicolored thread on my wrist smile.

"Let me guess who did this to me?"

I smiled and looked back and forth between the two girls. First, I pointed at Lan Lan.

"Yeah, I think it was Green Buccaneer who taught it to me."

"Miss!" Lan Li shouted in anger, "You knew it was me!"

"Quick, serve the young lady and get up! We can't be late today! " The green robber walked over and gave Lan Li a pat on the head, and the two became more intimate.

"Big sister, why are you still hitting me!" Lan Lingyun complained as she held her head.

Lan Ling's hand was burned by the teapot the day before yesterday, so Lu Ke took the initiative to switch jobs with her, taking charge of the large and small affairs in the yard.

He changed into a bamboo green robe with a ginger skirt and a green embroidered bamboo muslin blouse on top. It was just over two inches long, and a pair of wide sleeves fluttered along with his actions.

Seated in front of the mirror, Green Cove stood behind me with a comb in his hand. "What do you want to do with your hair in a bun, Miss?" he asked.

I smiled and pushed the hair that had fallen off the side of my face to the back of my head.

As expected, the green bandit did as I said. He combed his hair up from the top of his head and combed both sides. He put a bun on his head like a man and inserted a silvery-silver bamboo hairpin to keep it fixed. He tied a large braid on the back of his head and hung it behind his head with a bamboo green ribbon.

I smiled at myself in the mirror. It made me look like a little boy.

I was very satisfied with the hairstyle, and praised the green cuckoo, which caused Lan Lan to complain.

"Where is my scented sachet?" I went to the kang and rummaged through my basket, but there was no sign of the bag.

"I've already packed it for you." Lan Li came over with the box and showed me three scented sacs.

Speaking of such a perfume bag, I still felt a little guilty, because these days I was busy being my grandmother's forehead, until two or three days ago, when I remembered that I had to give a perfume bag to my elders during the Dragon Boat Festival. It was definitely too late for me to do it myself. I could only ask Lan Li and the green bandit to help me make the scented sachet. Even though I had embroidered the flowers and filled the spices, it could still be considered as my intention.

The road was full of spring, but I had no time to look at it.

He saw his grandmother sitting on the brick bed with a pair of scissors in her hand. When she saw me, she put the scissors down, took off her glasses, and waved at me with a smile, "Come here!"

I smiled as I brought the two maidservants behind me into the room. "Grandmother Wan'an!"

I reached into the box and took out a bag of yellow brocade and gave it to Grandmother.

Grandmother took a deep breath as she held it close to her nose. The wrinkles on her face loosened. "You still know my heart."

When I heard this, I smiled and felt a little guilty. It was indeed filled with Grandmother's favorite peach blossoms and spices. I didn't know if Grandmother would be disappointed if she found out that this scented sachet wasn't made by me.

The two maidservants each handed their own money bags. Grandmother smiled as she accepted them. She instructed Mother Du to reward the two maidservants one small Ru and one naked. The two servant girls immediately knelt down to thank him, and then they stood respectfully by the side with Hong Chang.

Grandmother took the bag I made and told me where to hang it.

I humphed and laughed as I agreed. Mother Du smiled as she passed on a message: "The old master's wife has arrived."

I quickly stepped off the brick bed and stood respectfully by the side, waiting for my parents to enter.

The sound of maidservants bowing could be heard in the hall, followed by the shadow of a person on a green brick.

When the person in front of me entered the door, I hurriedly kneeled down and said, "Father, Mother, greetings."

My parents smiled in response. I got up to take a look, why is she here as well?

A girl wearing a pink embroidered lotus seed walked in with her mother in tow. Her other hand was slightly supporting her already somewhat pregnant stomach. It was Aunt Chen.

I smiled and greeted Aunt Chen. Both of us maintained our usual politeness and estrangement.

I offered the purse to my mother and father, who smiled and thanked me for my usual acceptance.

Looking at the two remaining Five Poison Flowers in the box, I took one from the box and gave it to Aunt Chen. I didn't expect her to come and didn't prepare a scented sachet for her at all.

Aunt Chen could barely hide her shocked expression. She smiled as she received it and curtsied. "Many thanks, Eldest Miss!"

On the surface, his respectful and obedient manner were not bad at all.

Then my mother brought the perfume bag to my grandmother. The embroidery was exquisite and the materials were exquisite. A row of fine tassels hung elegantly below.

Grandmother took it, smiled, and told Mama Du to put it on the bed in the inner room.

The mother smiled proudly.

Lady Chen then gave the scented sachet to her grandmother and mother, without a father, following the etiquette of a common servant woman.

What a clever man.

"Miss, this is a bit of kindness from this servant. If you don't mind, you can accept it!"

The red brocade was exceptionally alluring to the eyes with her bare hands. It was extremely beautiful.

I took it with a smile. It was a fortune bag.

I looked at Aunt Chen in surprise. Why would such a well-behaved person give away such a bag when someone else was giving her a purse?

When Aunt Chen saw me looking at her, she smiled and said, "I know Miss Sachet wouldn't use it even if I made one. Why don't I make a bag for Miss? There are dried plum blossoms on the bed, and everything inside will have a faint plum blossom fragrance."

I thought Lan Li was extremely quick-witted. Lady Chen is even more powerful than the other!

Although I planned this matter single-handedly, whether or not I could stand firm depended entirely on Aunt Chen's ability. It was not easy to be like this.

Following that, all the reputable servants in the rooms handed their winnings to their masters. After a long time, it was the end of the Dragon Boat Festival.

His mother got up and said her goodbyes, "My wife still has some matters to settle, so I'll be leaving first."

Grandmother waved her hand with a smile. Go! Go busy yourself, and remember to come back for lunch at noon! "

The mother smiled in agreement, then left with her servant woman. His father sat down to talk to his grandmother and then left the room.

Seeing that her parents had left, Aunt Chen also got up to leave. Her grandmother smiled and instructed, "You're too used to smelling the smell of oil smoke, so you don't need to come over to rest."

Aunt Chen looked bashful as she bowed in acknowledgement. She was supported by a young maid at her side as she retreated.

In the morning, after everyone had left, Mother Du and her servants came up with porridge and pastries to serve Grandmother and me for breakfast.

Grandmother frowned. "Why is that all?"

Mother Du smiled as she prepared food for her grandmother. "The banquet is to be held at noon. Do not eat too much in the morning. I'm afraid that you will accumulate food."

Grandmother put down her chopsticks glumly like a child.

Unable to do so, Mother Du added a spoonful of sugar to the porridge.

It seemed that Grandmother's hysteria had unwittingly worsened.

A few nights ago, I had already turned out the lights to rest, the door of the mother flustered transmission: "Mother Du is here!"

I thought something had happened to my grandmother, so I hurriedly grabbed the lamp, put on my clothes, and got out of bed to greet her.

However, Mother Du did not know whether to laugh or cry as she entered the room.

"The old lady wants to find the plum vase that was gifted to Miss for entertainment a few years ago. I'm sorry to trouble you, Miss, to find it and bring it back to this servant."

I was a little surprised. "Why did you suddenly think of asking for this?"

Mother Du helplessly said, "The old lady had a dream and said that Miss liked that plum bottle and insisted on giving it to Miss. We said that the plum bottle had been given to the young lady long ago, and the old lady did not believe it and said that we had lost her things, so we started to make a ruckus. This servant came to Young Miss with a bashful face. This is for the old lady to take a look at, and tomorrow the old lady will return it to Young Miss. "

I was surprised and followed her to see my grandmother.

Before she knew it, her grandmother had already fallen asleep.

Lan Leng burns, I took the opportunity to call in the doctor to ask grandmother's illness.

Just as I expected.
