Chapter 23 The picture of Guanyin is embroidered

The original owner had been in the Zhou family for so many years and never had a good day without mentioning it. Moreover, the death of the original owner was inseparable from the Zhou family. Although she was advantaged in the end, since she had taken over the original owner's body, it would be fine if she didn't have the ability and opportunity. If there was a chance in the future, she would definitely vent her anger on the original owner's behalf.

Zhou Ran stood there for a while, lost in thought, and turned around to go back to the house only to find Ye Ximing standing not far away, looking at her quietly.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Ran asked in confusion.

Ye Ximing glanced at her face and asked tentatively: "Your grandma didn't bully you, right?"

Although the previous change of people before marriage made him have no good impression of the rest of the Zhou family, the person coming from the Zhou family was Zhou Ran's grandma. He felt that he should show up anyway, so he had been sitting in the yard just now. .

Mrs. Zheng spoke loudly. Although Ye Ximing did not hear everything, he could faintly hear Mrs. Zheng scolding Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran looked at Ye Ximing's concerned eyes and smiled, and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, she can't bully me now."

Seeing her like this, Ye Ximing was relieved, "You're right, you will be part of the Ye family from now on, I..."

Ye Ximing wanted to say that he would protect her, but when he thought about his body that he didn't know how long he could live, his words changed to: "Everyone in our family will protect you."

"I know." Zhou Ran said softly.

Whether it is the Zhang family or other members of the Ye family, they now regard her as one of their own family members. If someone comes to trouble her, they will definitely protect them.

In the afternoon, Ye Erlang and the others bought moon cakes and meat from the county town when they came back.

Zhou Ran, Chen and the others cooked several delicious dishes together. After dinner as a family in the evening, each of them ate a piece of moon cake to celebrate the festival.

After August 15th, the weather gradually started to get colder. The Ye family's braised pork sausage business did not have much impact, but the cold noodles business was getting worse day by day.

Zhou Ran thought about whether to let Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Li sell food instead. If the weather is cold, the spicy hotpot business would be good.

However, before Zhou Ran mentioned it, Li was diagnosed with pregnancy.

Mrs. Li had just been diagnosed with pregnancy, less than three months old. In addition, she had lost a child before. The entire Ye family paid great attention to Mrs. Li's pregnancy. Mrs. Zhang made the decision on the spot to tell Mrs. Li and Mrs. Chen not to let her go. Let’s go to the county town to set up a stall again.

Zhou Ran completed the picture of Guanyin that Wu Xiangling asked for a few days before the end of the month.

On the plain embroidered ground, Master Guanyin sits cross-legged on the lotus platform, holding a purification bottle, with a peaceful face and slightly lowered eyes, as if he is looking down at his followers with compassion.

The entire embroidery uses a variety of stitching techniques such as straight stitches, diagonal stitches, trocar stitches, rolling stitches, and seeding stitches. When embroidering the face of Guanyin, Zhou Ran was especially attentive and embroidered the compassionate expression of Guanyin. Very detailed and expressive.

After embroidering this picture, Zhou Ran felt that her current level was enough to start embroidering double-sided embroidery. She did not forget the long-term tasks issued by the system. If she wanted to become a junior embroiderer, in addition to some basic stitching techniques, She also had to be able to do double-sided embroidery.

Double-sided embroidery is also called double-sided embroidery. On the same base material, in the same embroidery process, both front and back images are embroidered, with exactly the same outline and equally exquisite patterns.

Zhou Ran's first attempt at double-sided embroidery was still on a handkerchief. It took Zhou Ran more than a day to successfully embroider a double-sided orchid handkerchief. The success of embroidering this handkerchief gave Zhou Ran great confidence. Next, he decided to use double-sided embroidery to embroider a set of screens. There were twelve screens in this set, namely plum blossom, apricot blossom, peach blossom, and peony. ..., corresponding to the twelve flower gods.

The screens Zhou Ran wanted to embroider were all relatively small in size. According to what she had in mind, the embroidered surface would not be too big. If the embroidery of these twelve screens was done slowly, it would take at most one month to embroider them. If it was done quickly, it might only take about 1 month. In about twenty days, her embroidery speed has now increased.

On the day Zhou Ran started embroidering the plum blossom table screen, which was also the last day of August, a very gorgeous carriage entered Xiyao Village.

Several women who were chatting at the entrance of the village started a lively discussion as they watched the carriage gradually disappearing.

“This carriage looks like it’s rich or expensive at first glance, and I don’t know whose home it’s going to.”

"Didn't Madam Ma say before that her niece married into a wealthy family in the county and became a rich wife? Could it be that Madam Ma's niece came to see Madam Ma?" someone speculated.

"To be able to ride in such a carriage, Ma's niece is really well married."

"Who says it's not the case? Some people are destined to have a good life. Ma's niece was clamoring to marry Ye Sanlang. The Ye family didn't agree, so they let her marry and go to the city to enjoy their happiness."

"What you said, I think the Ye family does not agree that marrying Ma's niece is the right choice. Ma's niece is not a person with the temperament to live a good life. She is not as good as the wife Sanlang is marrying now. People are not capable. Say, be filial."

"What did I say? Was it wrong for me to say that the Ye family did not marry Ma's niece? Even if you want to curry favor with Sanlang's wife, you can't just slander me, right?"

"Since when did I flatter Saburo's wife? I'm just telling the truth..."

While the two were arguing, the person who had been staring at the carriage suddenly said: "Okay, you two, stop arguing. I saw that the carriage seemed to have passed Ma's house and headed towards the edge of the village. You’re not going to Ye’s house, are you?”

"If you go over there, you'll probably be looking for the Ye family."

Wu Xiangling didn't know that her carriage had become the subject of discussion among the villagers. Following the route Zhou Ran told them at the time, the carriage traveled all the way to the east end of the village and stopped outside the yard.

Wu Xiangling asked the driver to wait in the carriage, and he knocked on the door of Ye's house with his maid Chuntao.

The person who opened the door for Wu Xiangling was Mrs. Li who was idle at home and was in a panic.

Mrs. Li doesn't have to go to the county town to set up a stall, and Mrs. Zhang doesn't let her interfere with the work at home. If she had gone to the entrance of the village before, or gossiped at the homes of people she was friends with in the village.

But last time, she was first taught a lesson by Zhang, and then she was dragged by Ye Erlang to talk about their powerful relationship for half the night. She did not dare to go to anyone to gossip, for fear that if she could not say what she said, she would cause trouble for the family and make the family unhappy. The easy life turned into a mess again, and she herself suffered accordingly.

So she could only wander around the yard in boredom. When she heard the knock on the door, she quickly went over and opened the door.

But when she saw Wu Xiangling at the door, who was wearing gold and silver and full of nobility, she was stunned. Her first reaction was that it must be her family's Sanlang who incurred a romantic debt when he was studying in the county.

With this in mind, Li looked Wu Xiangling up and down again. Judging by her dress, her family must be quite wealthy, her skin is quite fair, and her facial features are okay, but her figure is not good and she is too fat. Overall, she is not as good as her three siblings in all aspects. .
