Sign in: The female supporting character in the book disrupted the heroine's glory

Chapter 314 Double-Sided Embroidery of Lu Hanjiang

Jiang Youzhen shook his head shyly, "Not yet! But my father once said that I should not be distracted by the imperial examination, and marriage can be discussed later."

"As the saying goes, start a family and build a career! Start a family first, then build a career. Your father doesn't really need to do this, but I can understand that your father is probably thinking about your career and is afraid that you'll be distracted."

"Yes! It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. This matter should be decided by the parents at home."

Jiang Youzhen was a little surprised. Why did he ask her if she was going to get married? Was he going to arrange a marriage for her? That was really a headache. A strange elder was going to interfere in her marriage.

She quickly changed the subject and asked the waiter behind her to bring out all the embroidery on the tray.

"This is a round fan from our embroidery shop. The base is made of pear wood. You two can see the embroidery. It is absolutely detailed. Even the patterns of magpies on plum trees and orchids are lifelike..."

"Here are screens, strings, buttons..."

Jiang Youzhen introduced them one by one. Since she had embroidery skills, she was able to introduce them in a comprehensive manner. In addition, she spoke in a gentle and unhurried manner, which made the old lady and Luo Shuhuan immersed in it.

The old lady and Luo Shuhuan came to the embroidery shop originally for the embroidery skills, and what Jiang Youzhen brought were all exquisite works, which naturally attracted their attention.

The old lady nodded. "They are all very good, and are not much worse than those made by professional embroiderers in wealthy families. The most important thing is that the styles are novel, very creative, and very exquisite."

This time Jiang Youzhen was not modest anymore, "My three elder sisters have spent a lot of effort to innovate, in order to keep improving."

"Good! If you do business with this kind of heart, you will definitely gain something."

The old lady pointed to a round fan beside her and said, "Third girl, there are many patterns here that young girls like. Choose the ones you like. You can also choose the others. If you like them, take them."

Luo Shuhuan was overjoyed. He didn't expect that this trip would bring him such benefits. In fact, the fine products of Jizhen Embroidery Shop are not cheap. The capital is far away, so a small amount of goods is sold at a very high price.

Even though she was the daughter of a rich family, she only had two taels of silver a month. She also had many social events and servants to take care of, so she had nothing left every month. Now that someone was paying the bill, how could she not be happy?

"Thank you, grandma!" The girl's sweet voice came, her tone full of joy.

A strange look flashed in the old lady's eyes, and then she looked at Jiang Youzhen, but saw that she was just folding the screen aside and didn't even look over here.

Yes, the rules are good! What a pity, if they have a good family background, wouldn't such a young talent be a thousand times better than those second-generation rich kids in the capital who do nothing all day and live on the influence of the emperor?

Alas! No matter what, it still comes down to family background!

"That folding screen with pine and cranes is pretty good! Bring it to me and I'll calculate how much it costs later."

The old lady then pointed out some cords, handkerchiefs and buttons. She must have liked buttons very much, as she pointed out a lot of them.

Jiang Youzhen gathered all the food they ordered aside and counted them together later.

This time Luo Shuhuan did not hold back and took three round fans, as well as a few handkerchiefs, buttonholes and silk cords. Finally, he even took a fancy to a folding screen, but he hesitated and did not dare to ask.

She also knew that she couldn't be too greedy, as she understood the old lady's temper. She was really generous, but if she was greedy, she would look down on her from the bottom of her heart and would not treat her well in the future.

The last time she plotted against the old lady and took the Luozidai, the old lady ignored her for more than three months. If the princess had not shown that she had a good relationship with her in the end, the old lady probably would not have been kind to her again.

"We have a new product in our embroidery shop recently. We just made the embroidery sample but haven't launched it yet. I and the old lady hit it off right away. If the old lady is interested, why don't we appreciate it together?"

When Jiang Youzhen said this, the old lady immediately became interested, "Oh? Then I'd like to open my eyes."

Jiang Youzhen clapped his hands towards the door, and it was soon pushed open. The second shopkeeper came in with four waiters carrying a screen that was more than three feet long.

The old lady recognized at a glance that the material was rosewood. Not to mention the embroidery craftsmanship, the material alone was valuable enough.

Looking at the screen again, the old lady's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise and admiration.

"What is this?" The old lady stood up, walked to the screen, and was a little excited.

"It's Lu Hanjiangtu!" Jiang Youzhen stepped forward and explained with a smile.

"Look! The colors have different shades and are gradient. This side is the sunrise over the Luhan River, and below are people working at the dock. The mountains in the distance, the sailing boats, and the birds flying and gliding on the river form a busy picture of people working on the river in the morning."

The more the old lady looked at it, the happier she became. In fact, the pier was only a corner, but it was very complete. The most surprising thing was the majestic picture of the river and mountains.

This is a picture of rivers and mountains with Lu Hanjiang as the center and extending to the surrounding areas!

"It's really ingenious and creative! The embroidery is so exquisite and the stitches are so fine that there is not a single flaw to be found."

This time the old lady praised it sincerely and was tempted to buy it.

"There are far more surprises than these. Follow me and look behind you!" Jiang Youzhen waved to the old lady, and then they turned behind the screen.

"Look!"

The old lady's eyes widened, "This?"

"Double-sided embroidery?" The girl's shocked voice sounded, which seemed a little abrupt at this moment.

Jiang Youzhen looked over immediately, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

There was no double-sided embroidery in this dynasty. Their Jizhen Embroidery Shop was the first to pioneer it. How did this girl know about it?

Could it be possible? Jiang Youzhen's mind moved.

"Miss, do you also know double-sided embroidery?" Jiang Youzhen pretended to be surprised.

"This is the treasure of our Jizhen Embroidery Shop. It took an embroiderer more than half a year to embroider it. In order to study this, she spent so much material and time, just for this picture of Lu Hanjiang."

"However, this should be the trump card of our Jizhen Embroidery Shop. Other embroidery shops may not have it, right? How did the young lady know about it?"

She was not wrong. Their embroidery shop was indeed a pioneer in this dynasty.

Jiang Youzhen's eyes were full of surprise, which made Luo Shuhuan feel a little guilty.

Of course she knew, because she had seen it in her previous life. But she had never seen it in this life, and although she knew it, she didn't know how to embroider it, so she was so surprised when she saw it for the first time.

"It has both sides, isn't it double-sided embroidery?"

As Luo Shuhuan spoke, she began to doubt Jiang Youzhen. This dynasty didn't have something, but now it has it. And if she could travel through time, maybe others could too?

"This double-sided embroidery is really exquisitely crafted. I wonder where the inspiration came from? It's amazing!"

As soon as Luo Shuhuan finished speaking, the old lady's eyes turned to her.

She knew she had said too much today, but how could she feel at ease without testing the water a little?
