The birthday gift prepared for Chen Jieyu was a wind bottle.
After Qinghe selected it, he showed it to Xie Ning and gave it to Xie Ning after he nodded.
As for the day of Chen Jieyu's birthday, I heard that two tables of wine and food would be set up to entertain the guests.
Chen Jieyu would definitely not send a message to Yingxiang Pavilion, and Xie Ning had no intention of going.
With or without this gift, it would be impossible for the two of them to turn enemies into friends.
I heard that Liang Meiren had been invited, and the gift she prepared was a set of white agate silk-wrapped nine-hole pots, which were much more valuable than the Tingfeng bottle, and also showed more care than the Tingfeng bottle.
She is busy learning to make socks, first trying to cut them out of paper.
Because there wasn't much of the 10% off county tribute silk and cotton cloth in the palace, she only had one piece here.
Originally, she wanted to save it to make a close-fitting blouse in the summer, but now it's used to make socks.
Xie Ning feels it's a bit wasteful.
There is more than enough material to make socks, but there is not enough left over to make anything else.
But who made the emperor speak?
Qishang Palace knew that the sachet made by Xie Meiren had been presented, and he heard that the emperor had never taken it off since he wore it, and now Xie Meiren had to make socks again.
Qi Shanggong is very willing to give advice to Xie Meiren again, but there are so many things going on recently that she really can't get away.
After thinking about it, I recommended another Shang Palace to Xie Meiren.
This Shang Gong is also from the needlework bureau, and is older than Qi Shang Gong.
Of course, at this age, your eyesight has long since failed and you can't do any work.
In a place like the Needlework Bureau, craftsmanship is of paramount importance.
If you can't do any work, you can only live by dawdling.
Qi Shanggong couldn't come by himself, and he didn't want an ambitious person to compete with him for the benefits of Xie Meiren's place, so he asked someone to come who couldn't threaten her.
This Shang Gong's surname was Fang.
When she first arrived, Xie Ning saw her gray hair at first sight.
Just looking at this hair, he looks like someone in his fifties or sixties, extremely old.
Xie Ning felt uncomfortable asking someone of his age to salute.
After she came in, Xie Ning motioned to Qing He to help her so that she didn't have to be polite.
When Fang Shanggong raised his head, Xie Ning discovered that although Fang Shanggong had long hair, he was not too old.
He looked about forty years old.
He had a handsome appearance and must have been more attractive when he was young.
"Thank you, Fang Shanggong.
I'm very clumsy, so I need Fang Shanggong to take a lot of trouble."
Fang Shanggong said he didn't dare.
Her voice was low and she spoke softly.
Although I can't do the work myself now, it's more than enough to give Xie Ning some guidance.
She spoke very carefully, from whether the material was breathable and comfortable to the pattern of the socks and the knots of the ties.
Her rich experience and exquisite vision were even better than Qi Shanggong's.
With a skilled master, Xie Ning still used paper to practice her skills first.
She cut the paper pattern and then glued it along the seams with paste.
The size and shape of the socks she made were all right, and then she officially used the piece of silk cotton material.
Come and do it.
After Fang Shanggong left, Xie Ning asked Qing He to put away the needle and thread.
He planned to go out for a walk to stretch his muscles.
After sitting in the room for most of the day, he kept looking down at the needle and thread.
Now he feels sore in his shoulders and neck. .
Qing He accompanied her out, and she was in a very good mood: "Fang Shang Palace does have people with real talents.
The master did it so smoothly.

It seems that these socks will be ready tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
"Yes, but I've never heard of someone as big as Fang Shanggong before."
Qinghe said nothing.
The moment she heard Fang Shanggong's voice, she understood a lot of things.
Fang Shanggong's voice didn't sound like a normal person's.
Either he had been seriously ill or it was made like that by medicine.
If the master in the palace doesn't want to talk nonsense alone, he will give him a potion to drink.
After drinking the potion, he will be unable to speak aloud.
Fang Shanggong was lucky to still be able to make some noise.
In this case, it is only natural that she remains unknown.
The battles between the palace and the people in the needlework bureau are also very fierce, and it is not the person with the most exquisite craftsmanship who can become the leader.
On the contrary, those who strike out first, do not know how to hide their clumsiness, and are too sharp will always perish prematurely.
Not long after Qing He entered the palace, he heard something said by the eldest maid.
It was said that a palace servant who was serving a certain palace concubine made a purse.
The emperor praised it when he saw it.
The next day, the palace servant accidentally burned his hand and was seriously injured.
Even if he recovered, he would not be able to heal it.
I am now as flexible as a female celebrity as before.
When they were in the garden, they met people living in Yeting Palace from a distance.
They saw them from a distance, but did not come close to say hello.
They didn't know if they were the same people they had met that day.
I used to feel so comfortable when I went to the garden.
At that time, I had no favors.
If I wanted to knit something from the long grass growing by the water, I had to find several people to get it.
Now you can say what you want and it will be done in just one sentence.
Even without her opening her mouth, someone took the initiative to hold it with both hands and offer it to her.
But it was not as relaxed and comfortable as before, and so many pairs of eyes were staring at her.
"Master, do you want to find another place to live?"
Xie Ning thought for a moment and shook his head slightly: "I won't change it yet."
Qing He said: "It makes sense for the master not to move.
We are too conspicuous now.
People say that it is better to be still than to move.
I am afraid that if I move to the palace, someone will take advantage of it.
Besides, Li Zhaorong was promoted to Zhaorong.
Moved out of the back garden.”
As for the new person entering the palace, Xie Ning has already thought about it, fearing that there will be trouble in the future.
Could it be that moving somewhere else can avoid right and wrong?
As long as she is favored, right and wrong will never leave her.
Therefore, moving to the palace is not a once and for all solution.
One sock was quickly finished, and the other was almost finished.
Fang Shanggong came over again.
After talking about needlework, he also chatted for a few words.
Xie Ning asked: "In what year did Fang Shanggong enter the palace?"
Fang Shanggong's voice was still low and hoarse.
He was close and she had to speak slowly so that she could hear him clearly.

If you were a little further away, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to hear anything clearly.
"I entered the palace when I was eight years old and have been in the palace for almost forty years."
Many palace eunuchs were like this.
They entered the palace at a young age and spent almost their entire lives here.
They are all afraid of leaving the palace, and some are afraid that it will be difficult to make a living after leaving the palace.
The actual situation is that they are no longer accustomed to life outside the palace.
The world outside the palace walls is completely unfamiliar and dangerous to them.
After leaving the palace, You can't even tell the difference between north, south, east and west.
Someone in the previous dynasty wrote a poem about the white-headed palace maid, and Fang Shanggong is a vivid reflection of this word.
Especially seeing her gray hair made Xie Ning want to lament the vicissitudes of life.
I don’t know if she will also have beautiful hair when she reaches Fang Shanggong’s age, and where will she be then:
