On the surface, there is only one entry test for Zhijinfu: "A woman over the age of sixteen must participate in the embroidery test held in various places in the Shang Dynasty." There is no other requirement.

But there is another additional rule among the people: the woman who participates in the embroidery test must be a virgin.

The Shang Dynasty lasted for hundreds of years, and the brocade palace stood for hundreds of years. Over the years, I have never heard of any woman who passed the embroidery test as a woman.

After hearing Xu Lan say this, Wang thought that he had a bad idea in his heart. After sending his daughter down, he said to Xu Jinshui: "The head of the family, Xu Sanchun is about to be sixteen, and it is not a big deal for him to be at home. Look, the boss looks a little abnormal when he looks at her."

Wang was not worried that Xu Tianyou would suffer, but hated Xu Sanchun who seduced her son.

Xu Jinshui nodded: "You find time to go to Nanfeng Town. I heard that Mr. Sun is asking someone to find the tenth concubine."

"Sun Yuanwai?" Wang curled his lips and said, "He is so old that he still wants to take a concubine? Who doesn't know that his main house is a tigress. Several concubines died inexplicably, and they have both corpses and lives. Who dares to send them to the tiger's mouth?"

"You are such a elm-headed person!" Xu Jinshui scolded her: "What does Sun Yuanwai's concubine's fate have to do with you? As long as you know, he is worth a lot of money."

Wang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and smiled and complimented: "It's better for the head of the family to calculate. Let's say that Xu Sanchun is the concubine to Mr. Sun. We will not only solve the big troubles, but also receive a large amount of bride price. OK! That's great."

Xu Jinshui smugly touched his jaw and said, "That's not what we said. We have worked hard to raise our sister and her for more than ten years, but we are afraid that she will be different from what we think, so we resent us."

"Sun Yuanwai is the major shareholder of the salt farm. His hair is thicker than our waists when he pulls out roots. Xu Sanchun is able to marry in, and he really burns the incense in his previous life." Wang quickly agreed.

The couple hit it off, as if they had seen the pile of bride money, with golden light in their eyes.

Xu Sanchun didn't know what they had planned.

These days, she has been embroidering screens in Xu Lan's room and almost never leaves her home.

At the beginning, Xu Lan was still interested and embroidered a few needles on the side. Later, she thought it was too hard and asked Chen Hui to take some snacks for her to pass the time. If it weren't for the doubts about Wang, Xu Lan would have been no longer in the room.

Xu Sanchun was not the case. He picked up the embroidery needle and entered a state of selflessness. Although she remembered the mute girl's instructions, she couldn't help but be obsessed with it.

Just like when she was practicing her painting skills in the studio without eating or drinking, she simply forgot that there were others next to her and where she was.

The embroidery needle in her hand is her brush.

All kinds of silk threads are pigments.

Silk is a canvas.

However, embroidery needles are not brushes after all, and it is difficult to make embroidery needles. However, the concave texture and color presented by embroidery needles and silk threads are something that the brush cannot do.

She tried it repeatedly with the embroidery needle in her hand, over and over again.

For Xu Sanchun, this is equivalent to a brand new painting technique. She is like a child who suddenly discovered a new toy, indulging in, and forgetting about things.

Only when she suddenly woke up did she remember what the mute girl said, quietly removing a few needles to make the whole work look a little ordinary.

The spring scenery outside the window has passed, and early summer has quietly ushered in.

Xu Sanchun cut off the last thread and looked at the work in front of him with satisfaction.

"Magu's birthday present" is the most common birthday celebration picture. She has learned it specifically when she was studying art. However, this is the first time she has completed this work with embroidery.

Xu Lan pushed the door and saw a glimmer of surprise flashing in her eyes.

"Is the embroidery done?"

Xu Sanchun nodded, "Okay." Next, someone was stretching the embroidered silk onto the screen, but this had nothing to do with her.

After completing this work that took more than half a month, Xu Sanchun breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, and an unknown light flashed in her eyes, and she smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work in my cousin. What benefits do I get from looking back? I will definitely not forget you."

Xu Sanchun didn't take her words to heart. Xu Lan didn't do anything bad to her, so it wasn't Xu Lan.

When I returned to the room, I could not see the mute girl.

It’s all meals, where has the mute girl gone?

Xu Sanchun thought about it for a while, but found that the past half month had been blank in her mind and could not find any clues. She smiled helplessly. It seemed that she had an old problem again. As long as she started drawing, she would not know anything.

When she pushed the door open, she searched around but still couldn't find it, so she walked around to the kitchen.

Chen Hui was pouring hot water into the ditch with a basin of a brush pot. Seeing Xu Sanchun coming, he hurriedly wanted to avoid it.

Xu Sanchun grabbed her sleeve and said, "What's wrong? Don't know me anymore?"

Chen Hui had no choice but to: "No, you're thinking too much."

"Did you look at the mute lady? Why can't I find her?" Logically, with Chen Hu, the mute lady's work has been greatly reduced, so she won't be so busy that she has not returned to the house even if she has eaten.

Although she and the mute girl were named relatives, they lived in a dirt-walled room like slaves. When they had dinner, the Xu family never asked them, but they all went to the kitchen to bring the food back to the house to eat.

Chen Hui looked around and didn't see the talent quietly in Xu Sanchun's ear: "You go to the pigpen to take a look, don't say I said it."

Pig sty?

Xu Sanchun's heart trembled and she left.

The land in Tiantai Township is extremely barren, and people only farm for a little food and can eat some seasonal vegetables. Most of the food is transported from outside.

Xu Jinshui has the salary of this salt farm and can borrow his position to make some oil and water, so the Xu family has no farming. However, in order not to waste the free labor of the mute mother and daughter, they raise pigs every year.

Wang thought the pigpen was too smelly, so he built it far away from the main house and had to walk for several minutes.

When Xu Sanchun arrived at the pigpen, she saw the mute girl shaking on the railing with a pale face, and beads of sweat as big as beans flowing down from her forehead. At her feet, a broom was placed.

"Mumph!"

Xu Sanchun was anxious and rushed to her and supported her, "Mummy mother, are you okay?" She bit her lip and almost started to cry.

The mute girl was her only spiritual pillar after she came to the Shang Dynasty.

Don’t look at Xu Sanchun’s confidence, if the mute mother has something to do, how could she not know what to do?

"Don't cry." A weak smile appeared on the mute girl's face to comfort her.

Looking at the mute girl who was so tired but still didn't want to worry about her, Xu Sanchun's eyes became angry: "I'll go to settle the score with them now! It's too much. The person who collects pig manure will sweep the pigpen, why should I make things difficult for you?"

What a Xu Lan!

I promised her to be fine and I regretted it in a blink of an eye. Today, she must let the Xu family know that they are amazing and dare not bully the mute mother at will.
