When Mrs. He and He Feng arrived at the door, they saw Gu Yunxi and Wang Jiaozhen talking with the guests.

Gu Yunxi saw Madam He and He Feng coming over and hurriedly introduced them: "Master's wife, my mother, you have met her before."

"And this is my grandmother. She came over from Ningchuan Prefecture a few days ago. You haven't seen her yet."

Madam Yuan and Madam Xu were standing together. When they saw He Feng and Madam He, they smiled and nodded.

"Yaqin, look, this is the Madam Lu that I always told you about, Yunxi, and this is Madam Lu, Madam Lu's mother... Madam He."

Madam Xu smiled and nodded to He Feng and Madam He as a greeting.

She originally had no plan to leave the house today, but her good friend Madam Yuan told her that Yunxi's embroidery shop was about to open, and asked her to come out to take a look.

In fact, she understood what Mrs. Yuan meant. She wanted her to come and support Gu Yunxi.

Thinking of how Mrs. Yuan had bought her several precious peonies before, she was very considerate and made a special trip out to give her face.

Gu Yunxi smiled at Madam Xu. In fact, she had never met Madam Xu before, but only heard her master's wife talk about her occasionally.

After all, the main person who bought those top-quality peonies from me before was Madam Xu!

However, Gu Yunxi knew clearly that He Feng and Mrs. He did not know.

At this time, He Feng looked at Madam Xu with a confused look on his face, not knowing how to address her.

Seeing this, Madam Yuan smiled and explained, "Oh, look at my memory!"

"Mrs. Lu, Mrs. He, this is Mrs. Xu. We grew up together and are very close. I specially brought her out today to see your embroidery shop."

Mrs. Yuan did not explain in detail about Madam Xu's identity. Gu Yunxi already knew that Madam Xu's husband was the current Minister of Revenue, Xu Zhi.

He Feng smiled and nodded: "It turns out to be Madam Xu. Come on, come in and sit down. There are soft seats in the shop."

At this time, everyone was standing at the door and talking. There were people coming and going on the street, and it was inappropriate to talk while standing.

Madam Yuan and Madam Xu smiled and followed He Feng and Gu Yunxi in.

Only Mrs. He's smile seemed a little stiff.

Just now, she heard Minister Yuan’s wife introduce the noble lady just now, saying that she was Xu... Madam Xu?

Xu, this word, is her surname.

The famous Xu family in the capital only has her mother's family.

This Madam Xu must be the wife of some nephew from her mother's side, right?

After He Feng entered the house, she found that her mother did not come in with her. She asked Gu Yunxi to tell her a few words and hurried out to look for Mrs. He.

"Mom, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so pale? Are you tired? Come on, I'll help you go in and sit for a while."

He Feng looked anxious, and when he saw that Mrs. He's expression looked unnatural, his heart tightened.

Mother Wang did not come out today as she had to stay at home to look after the children, so at this moment, Mrs. He had no one to take care of her.

Mrs. He heard her daughter's voice and smiled and shook her head: "No, it's okay, let's go in."

After that, she was supported by He Feng and slowly walked into the shop. However, she did not sit with Madam Yuan and the others, but went straight to the backyard.

There were ten soft seats in the embroidery shop, and everyone sat around them. The shop assistants hurriedly brought tea, snacks, fruits and other food, and entertained them warmly.

Mrs. Yuan couldn't sit still, so she got up after a while and started walking around the embroidery shop.

Mrs. Yuan was just strolling around casually, but when she got to choose an embroidered handkerchief, she couldn't help but exclaim.

"Hey, these patterns are different from those sold in other embroidery shops?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Jiaozhen hurried over and explained with a smile, "Madam Yuan, the pattern of this handkerchief was drawn by Miss Qingqing, and the handkerchief was embroidered by Miss Yunle. These are the styles that are not available elsewhere."

"In our shop, each pattern is only produced in limited quantities for embroidered handkerchiefs, and new embroidery products are added every two weeks."

Listening to Wang Jiaozhen's words, Mrs. Yuan couldn't help but nod: "Not bad, really good!"

"I'll take one of this, two of this, and two of this too..."

Mrs. Yuan had already started choosing embroidered handkerchiefs and bought several at once. She also bought several pieces of freshly-made cloth.

Mrs. Xu looked at the embroidered handkerchief and couldn't help but nod and applaud.

She whispered to Madam Yuan, "The stitches on this handkerchief are so meticulous, it's a bit like the embroidery skills of Dong... Madam Yongchang."

Just now, Madam Xu also saw the wife of Marquis Yongchang at the door, but at this moment, she was not seen in the embroidery shop, and no one knew where she had gone.

Mrs. Yuan was quite surprised. She took it and looked at it carefully. She nodded, shook her head, and asked, "Yaqin, how did you know that?"

Yaqin has been better than her in every aspect since she was a child. She can recognize flowers and plants, embroider, and has beautiful handwriting.

Unlike her, she only learned half of everything and could just barely get by.

Madam Xu smiled and said, "I don't know how to put it, it's just a feeling. When I saw that this handkerchief was embroidered on both sides, this idea suddenly flashed through my mind."

"Many years ago, my mother accidentally received a double-sided embroidery from Dong... the wife of Marquis Yongchang. She loved it so much that she took it out and looked at it again and again, studying it again and again."

"When I saw this double-sided embroidered handkerchief today, I suddenly thought of her for some reason. Oh, by the way, I seemed to have seen the wife of the Marquis of Yongchang at the door just now, but I didn't see her in the embroidery shop now. I wonder if I am dazzled?"

Mrs. Xu began to doubt herself, wondering if her memory was getting worse as she got older.

Madam Yuan nodded: "I think I saw it just now. The wife of Marquis Yongchang seemed to be holding two children in her hands?"

As she was talking, Mrs. Yuan suddenly remembered that she seemed to have heard Gu Yunxi mention that he wanted to visit the Yongchang Marquis Mansion!

"Oh, it seems that Yun Xi knows the wife of Marquis Yongchang?" Mrs. Yuan exclaimed.

Just at this time, Gu Yunxi came over and heard what Madam Yuan said. She smiled and said, "Yes, Master's wife, I know Madam Yongchang!"

Mrs. Xu's eyes widened and she looked at Gu Yunxi in disbelief.

Just as he was about to speak, Gu Yunxi smiled and said, "Not only me, but our whole family is familiar with the wife of the Marquis of Yongchang!"

"Especially my grandmother, she has a very good relationship with Granny Dong."

"My grandmother and Granny Dong are talking in the backyard right now. Madam Xu, do you want to go over and sit in the backyard?"

Madam Xu was so shocked by Gu Yunxi's news that she was speechless.

Isn't it said that the Lu family only has Lu Jianchuan, a seventh-rank editor of the Imperial Academy? How come everyone in the Lu family knows the Marquis of Yongchang and has such a good relationship with the Marquis's wife?

You know, everyone in the capital knows that Marquis Yongchang has a strange temperament and is difficult to get along with!

However, Marquis Yongchang has been highly valued by the Emperor recently and he is often summoned to the palace.

And there was also the wife of Marquis Yongchang, who was the most famous embroiderer in the capital at that time. Someone once spent a huge sum of money just to buy a piece of embroidery from her!
