Chapter 98
The next day, after Gu Yunxi finished her breakfast, Red Date was teaching Gu Yunxi how to embroider bamboo stitch by stitch.

"Miss, this needle is wrong." Hong Zao said, "It should be passed through from below."

Jujube demonstrated three times in a row before Gu Yunxi understood what was going on.

I tried two more times before I could barely embroider it correctly.

Gu Yunxi put down the embroidery needle in her hand and rubbed her sore eyes.

Seeing this, Hongzao said: "Miss, take a rest, don't hurt your eyes from being tired."

Gu Yunxi looked at her work and was quite satisfied.

Although the embroidery is slower, it can always be seen.

"Embroidery is so tiring." Gu Yunxi said with emotion.

Longan heard the words, came over and squeezed Gu Yunxi's shoulders and said:
"It is said that practice makes perfect. Miss does not embroider often, so she naturally feels tired."

The strength of the longan was very good, and Gu Yunxi closed her eyes comfortably.

Softly said: "Who did you learn to comfort people?"

"The servant girl is telling the truth, how could she deliberately comfort the lady." Longan retorted in a low voice.

"It's fine if you don't deliberately bully me, or I will confiscate all your pastry share for this month." Gu Yunxi said with a smile.

"Miss, can you change it to fine money in the future?" Longan asked aggrievedly.

"No." Gu Yunxi said, "Punish money, you don't have a long memory."

"Miss." Longan called out pitifully.

"It's no use pretending to be pitiful." Gu Yunxi smiled lightly.

When Longan wanted to say something more, Bai Qing walked in and said:

"The clerk at Yuanyang Cloth said that there are a few new embroidery samples in the store, and asked the second lady if she would like to go and have a look."

"Yuanyang Buzhuang?" Gu Yunxi asked in surprise.

"Yes." Bai Qing said, "The buddy said last time Miss asked about flat embroidery, there are several new embroidery products in the store."

"Really? Since the owner sincerely wants to invite you, let's go and have a look."

Gu Yunxi brought Bai Qing and longan to the door of Yuanyang Buzhuang.

The shopkeeper in the store greeted him warmly.

"Second Miss Lin is here, it really makes my small shop flourish." The shopkeeper said.

"Didn't you say there are new embroidery patterns? Let's take a look." Gu Yunxi said.

"Second Miss Lin, go to the second floor to drink a cup of hot tea to warm up, and I'll go to the warehouse to get it," said the shopkeeper.

Gu Yunxi followed the buddy to the second floor, where there are two connected rooms.

The clerk pushed open the door of the first room and said, "Miss Lin, please, there is hot tea ready."

Gu Yunxi stood still, but Bai Qing took a step forward.

He walked into the room and looked around, even checking the teacups on the table.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he nodded towards Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi walked into the room and sat down, and said to the waiter, "Go down and do your work first."

"Okay, the little one is downstairs, if you have something to do, you can just call." The man said.

After the buddy left, Bai Qing opened the lid of the teapot and smelled it, then shook her head.

Seeing this, Gu Yunxi didn't say anything, but sat quietly, as if waiting for someone.

About a stick of incense, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

The door was pushed open, and a man in brown clothes appeared in front of the door.

"Master Yao." Gu Yunxi shouted in surprise.

Yao Tong came to sit down opposite Gu Yunxi, and put the small bamboo basket in his hand in front of Gu Yunxi.

"The embroidery sample that Second Miss asked for."

Gu Yunxi looked at the various embroidered patterns in front of him and said, "Mr. Yao has a noble status, so I dare not bother you."

"Miss Er, what you said is wrong. She opened the door to do business just for money, so it doesn't matter who she is or not."

After Yao Tong finished speaking, he poured a cup of hot tea and put it in front of Gu Yunxi.

"This shop belongs to Mr. Yao?" Gu Yunxi asked, ignoring the hot tea in hand.

"Yes." Yao Tong said, "It has been open for many years, but the business has not been good, which made the second lady laugh."

Gu Yunxi didn't say anything after hearing the words, no wonder she always felt that she had heard of 'Yuanyang Buzhuang' before.

Originally it was Yao Tong's shop.

Yao Tong looked at Gu Yunxi's untouched teacup and said:
"Second Miss, do you dislike my crude tea?"

"How can Mr. Yao's tea be bad?" Gu Yunxi said, "I just don't drink the tea outside."

"Second Miss doesn't trust me so much, it makes me a little sad."

On Yao Tong's gentle face, he said sadly.

"Young Master Yao, don't be sad, I don't drink any tea outside." Gu Yunxi said.

"Second Miss really treats everyone equally." Yao Tong smiled lightly.

"I think the second lady must have suffered something, otherwise why would she be so vigilant?" Yao Tong asked.

"Don't Mr. Yao know what I have suffered?" Gu Yunxi asked.

The smile on Yao Tong's face stopped for a moment, and then returned to normal.

"Second Miss's words are funny, I have only met Second Miss twice, how would I know this?"

Yao Tong stared at Gu Yunxi closely, as if he wanted to find some clues from her.

"Young master Yao really forgets things too much."

Gu Yunxi raised her eyes and looked straight at Yao Tong, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.

"Miss Yao planned to frame me at the flower viewing banquet, did Mr. Yao forget?"

Yao Tong didn't expect that she was talking about this matter, and her expression seemed a little disappointed.

"It's all a misunderstanding. Second Miss can't talk nonsense without evidence."

"Nonsense?" Gu Yunxi said, "Man is doing it, but the sky is watching."

"Yurou's body is not cold yet, Second Miss just poured dirty water on her!" Yao Tong said.

"She is dead, but it doesn't mean she should be forgiven for what she did." Gu Yunxi sneered and replied.

"Could it be that Second Miss still wants to flog the corpse!" Yao Tong stood up angrily and said.

"Who knows." Gu Yunxi said, "Who can say what will happen in the future."

"Death is like a lamp going out, even if Yurou tried to design you, but it didn't work out, why should the Second Miss care about it now?" Yao Tong said.

"I'm afraid I will disappoint Mr. Yao."

Gu Yunxi said: "As a concubine, I really don't have much heart, and I like to compare pennies and pennies."

"Miss Lin Er's behavior in the world really opened my eyes."

Yao Tong looked at Gu Yunxi and said with a smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Gu Yunxi saw that the time was almost up, so she asked:
"Young master Yao invited me here today, maybe he wants to discuss with me the way of life."

"Second Miss Lin is overthinking, and I happened to be today too"

Before Yao Tong finished speaking, he was interrupted by Gu Yunxi.

"Young master Yao should be more frank."

Gu Yunxi said: "Could Mr. Yao really think that a few embroidery samples are worth my trip?"

Yao Tong didn't answer when he heard the words, but poured himself a cup of tea silently.

It wasn't until the cup of tea was drained that he said slowly, "Second Miss is really smart."

"I don't know if the second lady has seen, my late wife, Princess Chaoyun?"
