Chapter 155

This woman is a strong mother. It sounds like Huang is also a miserable woman. Now she is taking two young children to make a living in Beijing, so she is afraid it will be difficult.

Mu Yun felt compassion, but she didn't want to give people a fish, so she asked Yunfan again: "Is this Huang family skillful?"

When Yunfan heard her question, he knew that Mu Yun was sympathetic. He hurriedly said, "Huang's girl is good. She used to take some work in our garment shop. If she was not good at craftsmanship, she would not be able to accept her embroidery work."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yun nodded: "Then cousin, please do it. If Huang's character is not a problem, let her go to be an embroiderer next door. This woman is not easy to make a living with two children. You can make a living for the three of them. You don't have to charge rent anymore. With our family's wages, we can still support their mothers."

Yun Fan nodded and said, "Your cousin's wife is still a little moved with Huang on weekdays. She usually says she is a proper person. I think her character is not much worse. I will tell your cousin's sister-in-law that this wage is easy to say. I see that Huang is a successful person. In the past, she has always been in charge of the money of the juren. I am afraid that she will have a backup plan. But their mothers are now carrying filial piety, and the people around them have to avoid it. Moreover, everyone is unwilling to get into the dispute between their wives and concubines. No one is willing to rent a house for them. If the orphans and widows are wandering on the streets and have the twenty taels of silver on the surface, they will probably not be able to use the people and the silver tomorrow. My younger brothers and sisters are willing to take her in. Even if they are willing to take her in a way, it is also a great thing to accumulate blessings and virtues."

Mu Yun smiled and said, "I have a tough life and I have never cared about this. I heard from my cousin that Huang is also suffering from life. If we can help, please extend our hand. After all, it is difficult for women to survive in this world! And the funeral of Fang Juren, no matter what, he always dies on our territory. I am afraid that this lady is not willing to care about. Cousin, please help me, don't let his funeral be uncontented. After all, it's a good thing to have a sad and bleak thing after all."

After Mu Yun and Yun Fan talked a few more gossips, she went home.

She didn't take this matter much to heart. After she went home and sighed with Wen Tingzhou for a while, she forgot about it.

After about two months, there were a few snowfalls in the capital. The weather was very cold and a thick layer of snow fell on the ground. Muyun was like a turtle in winter. She didn't like to go out the house the most, but she had to stay at home for a long time and was so boring.

Rimuyun was making the accounts while sighing at the half-open window. She sighed that the snowflakes were floating, and the north wind was whistling!

Yunfan's wife Feng suddenly came. After hearing the servant's report, Muyun was a little surprised, but she still greeted the main room in person. As soon as she entered the door, Muyun smiled and said, "It's a cold weather, and the road is slipping again on the cold weather. If you have anything to do, just send someone here. Why did you come here in person?"

Feng smiled and said, "Two days ago, someone from my hometown sent a lot of wild animals. Among them, there was a fox fur, which was snow-white and had no miscellaneous hair. I thought you could only match it, so I sent it to you. There were also a few deer skins, which were a little worse, and it was also made for boots."

Mu Yun looked at the fox fur with the maid's hand. It was really white like snow without any trace of color. Such a fox fur is of great value. He quickly smiled and said, "You just keep such a good thing, cousin sister-in-law, don't give it to me specifically. This makes me feel really sorry."

Feng smiled: "You say this, I should be the one who is unwilling to be sad! Su Rili didn't know how many good things I got from you, but now I'm just giving back a few words. If you don't accept them, you'll slap me in the face."

Mu Yun hurriedly smiled and said, "My cousin's cousin said this to me, I just want to take it away. If my sister-in-law has any good things in the future, I will definitely not refuse anyone."

Feng then smiled and said, "That's right, we still have to go back and forth."

The maid was about to carry all the things Feng brought to the warehouse, but Feng suddenly said, "Wait for a while, look at my memory. Today I came and brought something for someone else, and I almost forgot."

As he said that, Feng found a rectangular brocade box from the thing he brought and handed it to Mu Yun: "This is a thank you gift I have given you to others. Open it and see if you like it?"

Thank you? Mu Yun was a little confused for a moment. Who would ask Feng to give him something?

She hesitated to open the brocade box and saw that there was a scroll inside, which looked like an embroidered and framed embroidery.

Muyun opened the scroll and saw a tall green pine embroidered on the painting. Two or three bunches of blooming blue and white, purple and white morning glory were wrapped around the branches of the lush green pine, and two or three geese were living on the green pine. This embroidery is an imitation of the painting "Pine", a famous flower and bird painter of the dynasty, Mr. Feng Jingye. The reason why Muyun remembers it so clearly is that this painting is one of her dowry, which is the thing in the dowry bought by Xu.

When her bookstore opened, she took it to the copying room on the second floor of the bookstore and hung it on the storefront.

It is said that Mr. Feng Jingye's family was Tanhualang of the first imperial examination in the Dayuan Dynasty. He was elegant and handsome, better than Pan An, and he was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He once captured the hearts of countless girls. He was also a bachelor's degree in the Imperial College. Even the current imperial teacher had heard his lectures at the beginning, so this person has a great status in the literary world today.

Looking back at this painting, because it is not too old, Mr. Feng's paintings are still widely circulated. Many scholars and students have copied his paintings, and Mu Yun has seen many good imitations of paintings. But this is the first time she has seen the embroidery imitations. To be honest, the embroidery paintings are also very good. The needlework is neat and delicate, the color is very vivid, and it is not stupid. When I put it in the distance, it looks like a painting. Mu Yun praised: "This craft is really amazing. I look at it, it is not inferior to my sister's Qingkong craftsmanship."

Feng said in surprise: "It's true or false. Your sister's embroidery skills have been praised by the Queen. How can this be compared to Mrs. Jiang?"

Mu Yun nodded: "My sister probably hasn't been seriously pinching needles in the past two years? This is indeed not inferior to her skills, but if my sister is in good condition, she will definitely be stronger than this one. Oh ~ cousin, tell me quickly, who embroidered it?"

Feng replied with a smile: "It's either someone else, or the widowed concubine Huang, who died suddenly. After Fang Juren left, his first wife could not tolerate her. She had a bad relationship with her parents' sister-in-law. Now her mother has passed away and there are no relatives at home. The woman in the Fang family is a fierce woman and does not allow neighbors to help her. Their mother almost sleeps on the streets. Thanks to your last time, I dare to take her mother to our shop.

Only my mother can have a stable place. Huang is a kind-hearted person, and he remembers your kindness in his heart. In the past two months, he has stayed up late every day to embroider this picture. After the embroidery is done, he asked me to send it to you. She said that she has no things now, so she used this as a sign of gratitude. She originally wanted to follow me to kowtow to you, but our shop is now at the time of using people, and there is no time to come."

Listening to Feng's words, Mu Yun felt that Huang was a thoughtful person. He must have inquired about her preferences and embroidered this picture.

Mu Yun looked at the picture and praised: "Huang's craftsmanship is really exquisite and has a clever mind. Her craftsmanship is buried in my shop, and only doing some work of sewing clothes."

Mu Yun thought for a while and then ordered Yue Ping: "You send someone with a straight mouth and take a car to the garment shop and say that I fell in love with Mrs. Huang's craftsmanship, and asked her to stay at home for a few days and help me do some work. Let the manager find a few more people, and the money spent is paid out from my private account."

Then he turned around and asked Feng: "How old are her two children?"

Feng hurriedly said: "The older one is the son, four years old this year, and the younger one is the daughter, two years old this year."

Mu Yun breathed a sigh of relief: "It's still a child who is still there. Don't be a banana. Let someone clean up the Donger room in the yard where my cousin lived for their mothers to stay for a few temporary residences. If you find someone to look for bedding, you can find someone to make it clean." Yue Ping hurriedly agreed to go and do it.

Yueping found Zhang's mother, who was used to going out to buy, to do this. Although Zhang's mother was unwilling to go out in the snow and ice, Yueping is now the maid in charge of Mu Yun, and Zhang's mother didn't dare to complain, so she had to clean up and go.

The shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop was a little unhappy after hearing what Zhang's mother said, after all, the festival is coming soon, and the embroidered girl is missing. Now the lady has to take the best craftsmanship. But he dared not disobey the master's intentions, so he could only ask Huang to pack his luggage and follow Zhang's mother to Wen's house.

The shopkeeper guessed that Huang had gained the blue eyes of his wife and might become more developed in the future. He hurriedly smiled and said many compliments. Huang smiled and responded one by one, packed up his things quickly, and took his children to the carriage with his mother Zhang.

There were rolling beef soup and fresh beef and mutton at home. At noon, Muyun made people make hot pot and had a great time with Feng.

Feng smiled and said, "This season, I often arrange such foods at home, but the taste is much worse than that at my sister's house. Every time the head of the family comes to eat, I will scold me once when I go back. I was not convinced in the past, but only after eating it myself today did I realize that it was really delicious. No wonder the head of the family always misses me."

Mu Yun smiled and said, "What's the matter? It's just that the soup base and dipping sauce are more thoughtful. I'll ask someone to copy a recipe for my cousin's wife. You can try it when you go back."

Feng said hesitantly: "This is not a good thing, after all, this prescription belongs to yours."

Mu Yun smiled and waved his hand: "What's the matter? I don't have only one prescription, and I don't rely on such a prescription to make money even if I open a food shop!"

Feng then said, "Since that's the case, I'm so shameless and rude. Speaking of the food shop, the pickle shop you opened last year is quite popular now. Last time I saw a scholar from another place in the inn specially bought it and took it back to my hometown."

As she was talking, the servant reported that Huang had come with two children. Mu Yun asked her to bring their mothers and some of them. Since getting off the carriage, Huang did not dare to look around. She held a child in one hand and kept reminding them to be obedient. In the middle of winter, the temperature difference between the house and the outside was large. Although there was a stove on the carriage, she was still frozen after walking for so long.

From the cold outdoor to the warmth of the spring, Huang suddenly felt as if he was approaching the fairyland. She held her breath and pulled her two children to kneel down in the middle of the room as soon as she came in: "The civilian woman has seen her wife, thank her for her re-creation." After that, she pulled her children and kowtowed several times.

Seeing this, Mu Yun quickly asked someone to pull their mothers up: "Madam Huang, you are not my servant, so you must not give this great gift. I am also a woman. Seeing that your mother's life is not easy, it is just a small task, and I really can't take it like this."

Upon hearing this, Huang choked and said, "For the wife, it is just a small task, but for the three of us, it is a life-saving grace. We will never forget the great kindness of the wife."
