Chapter 9 A good abacus

How can I get rid of this face?

She glanced at the scissors placed in the needle and thread basket, and thought about the bloody scene of the scissors passing through the skin, and she shuddered.

She didn't want to try disfigurement or something, it hurts too much!

Unexpectedly, Xu Sanchun simply turned the mirror back and lay decadently on the table without wanting to move, so he escaped for a while.

After a while, the mute lady pushed the door and saw her weak look, she quickly put down the basin of water in her hand, stepped forward and tried her forehead, and gestured with her hands: "What's wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"I just said that your illness has not been cured yet, so you have to rest for a while, but you didn't listen! Now that I'm cured, are you suffering again?" The mute lady looked at her anxiously, her concern and worry were beyond words.

For some reason, Xu Sanchun felt a little more uncomfortable when she scolded her like this.

"Mummy, I'm fine." Xu Sanchun stood up and helped her sit down, saying, "You don't have to work so hard when you come to your family. I'm thinking about helping Xu Lanxiu interject the screen."

The mute lady looked at her with a look of relief and gestured: "Chun'er has grown up and knows how to feel sorry for the mute lady."

"Don't worry, mute mother, I will definitely let you live a good life!" Xu Sanchun promised with a pat on his chest and felt a sense of pride out of thin air.

It’s not her fault to be beautiful, and being timid is not her personality. She doesn’t believe what she should do, and she won’t be able to live a reputation?

She was not a real ancient person, and she would not care about the eyes of those people. From the back, she was walking straight and sitting straight, but there was one thing that she had to keep a distance from those young people and not be honest.

"You go and do embroidery work for Xu Lan, don't be too serious, just ordinary things." The mute girl told.

"Why is this?" Xu Sanchun was puzzled.

"You have to listen to me in this matter." The mute girl insisted, her eyes becoming more and more worried. Looking at her eyes like this, Xu Sanchun couldn't help but respond.

The sunlight coming from outside the window is very soft, making the mute girl look less old and haggard than when she first met.

In fact, the mute girl's facial features are very beautiful, and she can vaguely see her youthful style. However, her hair is mixed with a lot of silver threads, wrinkles on the corners of her eyes and cheeks, and her slightly hunched back all make her look much older than her actual age.

She is Xu Jinshui's sister and is naturally younger than Xu Jinshui. Xu Sanchun infers that the age of the mute lady and Wang should be about the same.

But Wang was raised so smoothly that she didn't have to do rough work, so she naturally didn't look old. On the other hand, the mute girl, who has been working as a cow and horse in the Xu family for so many years, how can she not grow old?

Xu Sanchun hugged the mute girl in her arms and found with pain that she was so thin that she was left with only a handful of bones. "Don't worry, mute girl, I will listen to you. I will just embroider and make sure that I won't attract attention."

She did not say what Xu Lan asked her to replace her, but the mute lady had guessed that no matter why the mute lady made such a strange request, she just did what she said.

She firmly believed that the mute girl would not harm her.

The birthday ceremony of the old lady Baojia is so important that she can actually be handed over to her daughter. Wang has been more arrogant than usual when she goes out these days, and she keeps talking.

As the head of the family, Xu Jinshui was naturally proud of his youth.

After the family had dinner, Xu Jinshui specifically asked Xu Lan to stay: "Lan'er, we didn't love you in vain. We finally gave us a face."

"Mom." Xu Lan acted coquettishly: "Look at what my father said, what does it mean? Could it be that it was embarrassing to you in the past?"

Wang held her in his arms with a smile, gave Xu Jinshui a blank look, and said, "Your father said goodbye to him! Our Lan'er will be someone who will enter the Jinzhi Mansion in the future."

Xu Lan felt a little guilty, and the praise she received was all Xu Sanchun's skills.

But she forgot this guilt in the blink of an eye and said, "Mom, don't worry, my daughter will definitely be able to enter! By the way, Xu Sanchun will be sixteen, so she can't enter."

"She?" Wang sneered: "Just because of her appearance, no one would let her in when she knelt down and begged." She looked down on Xu Sanchun with unknown origin and became more charming as she grew older. She looked like she was not a good thing!

Xu Jinshui's smart eyes were full of calculating. He shook his head and put down the teacup and said, "You can't take it lightly. Next month, the people from the Jinma Mansion will come to us. Any girl who is over 16 will have to go to the house. Xu Sanchun is just the same age."

"What's the use of her age? How high is the requirements of the brocade mansion? Her little embroidery skills cannot be seen by others." Wang hugged his daughter and looked proud: "I'll let you see the two handkerchiefs that Lan'er embroidered, don't you! Look at Lan'er's embroidery skills, she doesn't know how many times she has done!"

Xu Jinshui waved his hand impatiently: "I don't understand the affairs of your women's family, but she can't get in."

Xu Sanchun had a good appearance and ate the rice from her family for more than ten years. If she entered the brocade mansion, wouldn’t it be all gone? On her, she would have to collect some profits and come back.

I have to say that Xu Jinshui is good at making a plan, and his sister and daughter are both tools he uses to make profits.

Wang was full of confidence, but Xu Lan didn't think so. She knew the best about Xu Sanchun's embroidery skills.

"Dad, my daughter thinks you can't take this risk." Xu Lan gave an idea: "The best thing is to make her unable to go."

"Can't you go?" Wang thought for a while and hesitated: "Everyone in our village is registered and gives the 1,000 courage to fool the Tiangong Niang from the Jin Mansion."

Not only the people from Tiantai Township, but even in the entire Shang Dynasty, the Zhijin Mansion was an institution that surpassed all the governments.

The reason is nothing else, just because the service target of Zhijin Mansion is only one person, that is Emperor Songlie of the current dynasty.

People who came out of the brocade mansion, no matter what logo or color they embroidered on their sleeves, were superior to ordinary people and did not kneel down when they saw officials.

In the court and the country, only scholars and officials had the same rights as the Brocade Mansion.

Such a person comes to Tiantai Township, and he is a person who is more noble than the fairies in the sky, and he must be well offered.

During that time, the most naughty boy did not dare to act rashly, and the most shameless gangster had to be a human being with his tail. It can be said that wherever the people of the Jinshi Mansion went, the atmosphere was cleansed and no one dared to act rashly.

Fortunately, the exam in Jinfu Mansion only takes only once every six years, otherwise people would be really terrified and terrified. Just because they provoked Jinfu, the fate would be similar to stabbing a hornet's nest. Death was the best ending.

No matter what, Xu Lan never wanted Xu Sanchun to be admitted to the Jinma Mansion and become an embroiderer. So, when she heard Wang's words, she turned her eyes and said, "My daughter heard that the embroiderer's qualifications were qualified to pass the exam..."

She didn't continue to say the words because they were not suitable for saying them from the girl's mouth. However, Xu Jinshui and Wang looked at each other and understood what she meant.
