Although it was only four or five miles away, with Chunyu and Chuntao's thin bodies, it took them half an hour to reach the town.
After arriving, Chunyu was somewhat disappointed.
The ancient streets on TV didn't look as grand.
Although this town is lively, it is not necessarily prosperous.
There are still some uneven dirt roads on the street.
The buildings are all low-profile houses, and only a few decent-looking courtyards can be seen from a distance, which are also obscured by the rows of willow trees in front of the door and cannot be seen in detail.
It seems that this is just a small town.
It’s a pity that I haven’t been to the county seat.
It should be good.
Most of the shops selling things here are small shops, and some set up sheds on the streets to start small businesses.
The variety is quite comprehensive.
When they passed a noodle soup stall, Chunyu saw that there were only three tables set up here and only two customers were eating noodles.
Although occasionally the aroma of noodles wafts over, and the bowl is quite large and filling, but there is not even a chopped green onion on the noodles, which looks so white and unappetizing.
"Sister, you're hungry and we can't afford to eat at the noodle shop here."
Chuntao sniffed and said, feeling a little hungry after smelling the fragrant noodles.
"Sister, you are not hungry.
Are you hungry?
I will collect the money and buy you a bowl of noodles later."
Chunyu said distressedly.
Her family did not eat white noodles once a year.
No wonder Chuntao was greedy.
"I won't eat it.
A bowl of plain noodles costs two cents, let alone five cents a bowl of shredded pork noodles."
Chuntao said she didn't want to eat, but she was yearning for it in her heart.
"It's indeed quite expensive, but the eldest sister will definitely let you eat more delicious noodles."
Chunyu touched Chuntao's hair and said.
The three sisters in her family are all weak and withered, and even her younger brother Xiaobaozi doesn't look good.
Like a five-year-old boy.
Hey, her mother's cough was even worse during this period.
I don't know if her mother What kind of disease is it?
If I have a chance to ask Dr.
Liu another day, I can see if I can replenish my body through diet.
Chuntao has never been to Liu Xiu Niang's place before, and she found it really difficult to find here.
I don’t know how the eldest sister, who has only been here once, remembers the way.
Chunyu took her into an alley and turned here and there to a street that was neither lively nor deserted.
There are some scattered shops there, and Liu Xiuniang's Yunxiufang is the last one at the end of the street.
Liu Xiu Niang was a well-known embroiderer in the neighborhood.
Many wealthy families came to her for embroidery work.
As time went by, the number of jobs became too much for her, so she found some embroiderers who were good at embroidery to help her embroider things.
I charge a little money for each job, and all the rest of the money goes to the embroiderers.
Later, there were many embroiderers I had a lot of work to do, so I opened Yunxiufang and bought some embroidered handkerchiefs, purses, silk flowers and the like.
It can be regarded as a place for the wives and daughters of poor families to earn money.
Yang Yuemei came to Liu Xiu Niang's Yunxiu Workshop to get work at that time.
Arriving at the entrance of Yunxiufang, Chunyu found that although the place was not heavily decorated, it was elegant.
As soon as you enter the door, there is a hollow carved screen.

I don't know what kind of wood it is.
The aisles on both sides were also scattered with tulle loosely tied with twist tassel ropes woven with thin threads, and there were faint cigarettes floating out, which must have been lit. of incense.
"Sister, this looks like a young lady's boudoir of a rich family," Chuntao said with envy, a little reserved.
"How do you know?
You've been there."
Chun Yu couldn't help but laugh.
How could a lady from a rich family be willing to use cheap-looking silk gauze in her boudoir?
This Yunxiufang was just trying to be elegant.
"No, I heard from Huang Yanghua of Li Zheng's family that her aunt's second daughter was sold to a wealthy family as a maid.
Later I heard that the master took a fancy to her aunt.
When she returned to her parents' home, she said to her family It's nice to have rich families, and they said I would take Huang Yanghua to live there for a few days.
Huang Yanghua often told people when she met her, and she never saw her cousin taking her to live there.
However, I think what she said was not bad.
The life of a wealthy family is good. ."
Chuntao is somewhat yearning for it.
"It's not as comfortable as being at home when you go to a rich family.
Although life is hard, there is hope for success.
If you work hard, life will always be better.
It's not like the second sister of a rich family who doesn't even have her own life to serve others.
Don't envy those people.
Our family will definitely get better and better in the future."
Chun Yu was noncommittal, but she was afraid of what Chuntao would think.
"How can I not?"
Chuntao curled her lips and said.
"It's rare for a little girl to have such insight."
As the two sisters were talking, a pleasant female voice came out, and then a girl came out with a ring.
Chun Yu looked up and secretly called "Beauty."
This girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a lotus-colored embroidered skirt and a lake-green cardigan.
Her skin was not fair but healthy, and she had a pair of smiling crescent-moon eyes under her thin eyebrows.
"Thank you, sister."
Chunyu replied generously.
"That's right.
If you didn't look at her clothes, you'd think she was from someone else's family.
Sister Xiu, I didn't find what I wanted when I came to you today, but I found someone interesting."
The girl still said with a smile, but Look behind her.
"Look at how lively you are, don't scare the little girl away."
A young woman in her thirties walked out from behind her.
She was quite delicate.
The woman looked at Chunyu for a while and said with a smile: "But it's Chunyu, Dani from Yuemei's family."
"Yes, Aunt Liu has a good memory.
My mother asked me to deliver embroidery work, just to see if there are any new jobs."
Chunyu also smiled and reached out to hand over the bundle.
"Let me see, it didn't take long for Miss Yuemei to do the embroidery work this time.
The embroidery work is also pretty good."
Liu Xiu Niang took the bundle and opened it, and found that the last time Yang Yuemei came to pick up the embroidery work, it only took ten days.

All embroidered upon arrival.
Hey, it’s not easy either.
I’m afraid I need money urgently.
I’ll wait a moment.
Give more if you can.
"Mom is having a hard time, but it's a pity that I can't be a female celebrity, otherwise I can help my mother."
Chun Yu said depressedly.
Even Chunyu could barely embroider some visible flowers and make simple clothes, let alone she couldn't even sew buttons.
"It's okay, you're so young and you still have a chance to learn."
The girl from before comforted her.
"Thank you, sister."
Chunyu said sweetly.
"I heard Sister Wuxiu, people call me sister, unlike that bastard in your family who calls Aunt Jade all the time."
The girl said with a smile.
"Haha, Chunyu, I think you should call her Aunt Yu.
Her name is Caiyu, and she is Aunt Liu's god-sister.
You are an old girl of 18 or 19, but you still have the nerve to ask other girls to call you sister."
Liu Xiu Niang joked.
"Sister Xiu," Caiyu pretended to be unhappy and took two steps forward, but then returned with a smile: "Forget it, I am indeed old.
Girl Chunyu, just call me Aunt Yu.
I am in the county town.
I’m on duty with the Zhou family, so I’m afraid I’ll have to go back after being out for a long time.
I’ll see you next time.”
"Okay."
Chunyu said.
It seemed that the relationship between the two was quite good.
But the Zhou family that Caiyu was talking about was the Zhou family that she almost sold into slavery.
No matter what, he won't have anything to do with the Zhou family anyway.
"You're leaving now, why don't you stay for dinner?"
Liu Xiuniang was reluctant to let her god-sister leave right now.
"I came here to find you some fresh embroidery patterns.
Since I don't have any, I have to go back.
I have to go look for them elsewhere.
The eldest young master is coming back from the capital.
Our third lady has always been on good terms with him and promised to do it for him.
This is a novelty purse, so I came here to look for some embroidered ones.
Everywhere I looked, they were all tacky.
Corny.
"Caiyu said disappointedly.
"Hey, besides plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and stones, what else can I embroider for the young men's purses?"
Liu Xiu Niang was also stumped.
She was one of the best embroiderers, but she was also an experienced embroiderer.
I can’t make up a pattern.
"Sister, Aunt Yu, I wonder what the young master's preferences are?"
Chunyu listened to their conversation, and her heart moved.

In her previous life, she wasn't very good at studying.
She studied painting for two years in order to get extra points for the college entrance examination.
And there were so many patterns in her previous life, so she should be able to find one that the young master liked.
"Why, do you have any embroidery skills?"
Caiyu's eyes lit up and she asked expectantly.
Liu Xiu Niang didn't quite believe it.
If she had good embroidery skills, her mother would have embroidered it and sold it for money.
"Yes, I can read a little.
Occasionally, I would draw some good-looking patterns in books when I read them.
As time went by, I started to draw some myself.
I was afraid that the drawings would not be good, so I didn't show them to my mother."
Chunyu looked at it.
Liu Xiu Niang didn't believe it and hurriedly explained.
