Jiaohua Growth Guide [Rebirth]

Hearing He's voice, Gu Ci subconsciously followed the voice, and saw He striding towards this side, followed by his second aunt Hua, he couldn't help wondering: "Eldest aunt, second aunt, why are you here?" ?”

"Eldest aunt, second aunt." The two younger ones greeted him sweetly when they saw him.

"Ai ai." He Shi hurriedly walked towards Jiaojiao while responding, quickly took her hand and wiped it, looking at her red fingers, feeling sorry for her and complaining at the same time , "This is a pair of skillful hands, how can you do these rough jobs?"

Gu Ci was even more puzzled, looking at Hua Shi who was following closely behind, "What's wrong with Auntie?"

Huashi smiled, and looked at Jiaojiao very earnestly, "Your aunt is right, from now on, you must take good care of Jiaojiao's hands."

"Auntie." Jiaojiao withdrew her hand from He Shi's, feeling inexplicable, "Sister didn't ask me to do rough work, these are all things I can do."

"Nonsense." He Shi squeezed her little hand again, and looked at Gu Ci, "Ask your second aunt to see how valuable Jiao girl's hands are."

Seeing Gu Ci looking towards her, Hua Shi said without her asking, "You are too, Jiao girl is so good at embroidery, yet you let her do these rough jobs."

When Gu Ci heard the words, he began to think about it, but he still asked with doubts on his face: "Who did the second aunt listen to?"

Before Mrs. Hua could reply, Mrs. He was the first to bluff, "What? Don't tell me, you don't know that Jiao girl has this ability?"

Gu Ci lowered his eyes and didn't answer.

The smile on Hua's face faded a little, and she also went to pull Jiaojiao's little hand. Although the little girl's fingers were a little red, they were long and slender, soft and tender to the touch, not rough, so she felt relieved. .

"A few days ago, didn't you bring the charming girl to the house? Sanmei was embroidering handkerchiefs for a tailor shop in the town at the time, and the charming girl helped her embroider a koi carp. As a result, I gave the handkerchief to the shopkeeper yesterday. The shopkeeper saw the handkerchief embroidered by the charming girl, not only gave him two liang of silver as a reward, but also asked me to help find the embroiderer."

After speaking, Hua took out a purse from her sleeve and handed it to Gu Ci, "This handkerchief was embroidered by Jiaojiao, the money should be given to her."

"Second Aunt, you can't do this." Gu Ci hurriedly pushed back, "This is a tip from the shopkeeper to Sister Sanduo, we can't accept it."

"Hey, why don't you understand?" Hua frowned, a little anxious. Although she has a soft temper and usually cares about trivial matters, she is also soft-hearted. Seeing Gu Ci's current situation, in private I often tell my man that Gu Ci is a poor man, "This is because the shopkeeper praised the girl for her good embroidery work, so I rewarded you."

Jiaojiao saw the two pushing back and forth, and pursed her lower lip, "Second Aunt, I didn't embroider that handkerchief by myself, I only embroidered a koi for Sister Sanmei, and she embroidered the rest. of."

Who doesn't like people who are generous and not greedy for small things?

Seeing what Jiaojiao said, Hua felt even more distressed about the two of them, and forced the money into Gu Ci's hands, "You can take it if you tell me." He turned his head to the little girl and said, "The shopkeeper is just looking at you." You have embroidered koi. Your sister Sanmei's embroidery skills are incomparable to yours."

"What does the second aunt say?" My own child said it was okay, but if others really followed the words, it would be somewhat uncomfortable. Gu Ci also knew that this was the second aunt's politeness. Sanmei's embroidery work, the family big and small Everyone valued it, even if it was autumn harvest, everyone was so busy that they didn't touch the ground, and Sanmei didn't let Sanmei interfere with the housework, "Sanmei's embroidery work is obvious to all."

"I used to think that Sanya's embroidery work is good, but now I know that there are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond the sky." Mrs. Hua felt a little bit emotional. If she changed to someone else, she would feel a little pissed if she couldn't keep it right, but what Jiao girl said, she meant it sincerely. I can breathe a sigh of relief, after all, the eldest sister is really having a hard time these days, and it would be nice to have a way to live.

"Second aunt, sister Sanmei's embroidery is very good."

"Yo, my daughter already knows this." The little girl said abruptly, and everyone was stunned for a moment. He Shi was beside her. When they came back to their senses, looking at her serious face, they couldn't help laughing, "Then Tell me, what is so good about your sister Sanmei's embroidery work?"

Jiaojiao tilted her head and thought about the handkerchief embroidered by Sanmei that day, and commented seriously: "Sister Sanmei's embroidery work is solid and fine, and the thread is also stable. She still has some skills, but..."

Probably realizing that what she said was a bit inappropriate, Jiaojiao stopped again, lowered her head and stopped talking.

"But what?" Mrs. Hua saw the shopkeeper complimenting Jiaojiaoxiu's koi with her own eyes, and she didn't think her words were exaggerated, so she asked sincerely: "The old man often said, to make use of your strengths and avoid weaknesses, just let you Sanmei My sister will grow up and grow up."

Jiaojiao still pursed her lips, glanced at Gu Ci cautiously, saw the other party nodded towards her, and then said in a low voice: "It's just that Sister Sanmei's stitches are not smooth enough, so the things embroidered are more like , but no verve. It looks like a middle-grade embroidery, but looks like a top-grade embroidery.”

Hearing this, not only Mrs. He and Mrs. Hua were surprised, but Gu Ci was also a little surprised. She didn't know that the little girl could speak clearly and understood a lot.

Huashi stared at Jiaojiao for a while, blinked, then turned to look at Heshi and Gu Ci, nana said: "That's what the shopkeeper of the tailor shop said."

"It seems that my daughter is an expert at such a young age." He Shi is good at sewing a piece of clothing, but he can't do embroidery work, and Wen Yan loves Jiaojiao even more, holding her His little hand was overjoyed, "From now on, this delicate hand will have to be taken care of carefully."

"Indeed." Hua Shi also echoed: "Those embroiderers in Linglong Pavilion, just one piece of embroidery is enough for us to eat for three to five years. It just happens that it's winter now, and I have nothing to do at home. I can do it tomorrow." Take the charming girl to the town to meet the shopkeeper."

"Can I earn money by doing embroidery like Sister Sanmei?" Hearing Hua's words, Jiaojiao's whole face jumped up.

"Of course." Hua looked at her sweet dimples, couldn't hold back, and poked her hand, "I think the shopkeeper means that he can't wait for you to embroider for him."

"Sister, let's go to town tomorrow." Jiaojiao couldn't wait any longer, she ran over and shook her hand, "Now that I can earn money, my sister won't have to take the risk of going up the mountain."

"What? Going up the mountain?" Upon hearing these two words, He's face suddenly changed, and then he noticed the pheasants and rabbits busy in the yard, and quickly pulled Gu Ci to look up and down, "You child, don't die Is it..."

"I know what's in my heart, so don't worry, Auntie." Gu Ci hurriedly comforted her, afraid that He Shi would talk endlessly, "I'm just wandering around the hills near here, and I didn't go deep into the mountains, so nothing will happen."

Jiaojiao curled her lips, and complained to He Shi: "My sister has been on the mountain for four days before returning home."

"You don't worry about it." He Shi was even more worried, poking Gu Ci's forehead and began to teach, "Do you really think you are a man? Can you stay alone on the mountain? You just stay here." Four days, what if something happens?"

Very good, little girl, this is intentional.

Gu Ci gave Jiaojiao a sneaky look, and then received a scolding from He Shi and Hua Shi with a bitter face, and this matter was finally revealed.

After the autumn harvest, almost every household was idle, and He and Hua didn't rush, so they simply drove the two little ones aside, and they helped to deal with the pheasants and rabbits.

After working all morning, they finally cleaned things up. Thinking of saving food for her, Mrs. Hua cleaned things up and helped clean the yard, so they said they wanted to leave.

Gu Ci naturally refused to let them go, he insisted on keeping them until they had eaten.

Before leaving, Gu Ci gave away two pheasants and a rabbit, but Heshi shied away, Gu Ci said that if she didn't want her gift in return, then she didn't want what they sent, so Heshi took a pheasant and a rabbit. Rabbit, "Just give me a pheasant. I'm going to the town tomorrow anyway. If you can't finish eating, ask the restaurants in the town."

Gu Ci didn't refuse anymore, these things were originally intended to be exchanged for money, "Auntie, don't always worry about our life, if we really can't live on, most likely I won't be polite to you."

These words are very considerate, and He listened to them, "I know you are capable, but you are not alone now, and you have younger brothers and sisters to take care of, so you have to think more about everything. Besides, since Jiao girl has this Craftsmanship, you can also earn some money in the future to reduce your burden, so there is no need to work so hard."

"I can save it." Gu Ci nodded. Aunt Bangen mentioned Jiaojiao's embroidery work to her earlier, but she didn't take it to heart because she didn't want Jiaojiao to be too conspicuous.

Jiaojiao's identity is a mystery, but judging from today's conversation, she is even more convinced that she is the lady of a rich family, and there must be a special master who has taught female red embroidery.

Laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway.If Jiaojiao's future embroidery really comes into the hands of someone who knows the goods and is recognized by someone, it will inevitably cause some troubles.

But seeing the joyful energy of the little girl talking about her earning money, she couldn't bear to refuse. Besides, if she didn't accept Hua's favor, the two aunts would think too much.

After much deliberation, Gu Ci decided to take a step forward and see the shopkeeper in person tomorrow.

"You can save yourself." He waved his hand at her, "Then wait at the entrance of the market tomorrow. Anyway, I'm fine, and I'll come over with your second aunt."

After sending the two aunts away, Gu Ci cut up half a pheasant and wrapped it up, and took the velvet antler to Old Doctor Gu's house.

Old Doctor Gu's family was there, and when they saw Gu Ci approaching, they immediately invited her into the house.

"Elder sister, I will not let you in if you have to bring things over from now on." Old Doctor Gu's wife is from the same village. She is a very short and thin woman. Even better.

"It's not a valuable thing, so I took the two young ones to collect firewood in the mountains. I was lucky enough to kill two. Aunt Gu took care of us in the past. It's too natural for you to say that." About hunting in the mountains Gu Ci didn't want to make a big fuss about the matter.

Gu Shi liked Gu Ci's way of repaying her kindness, and took the things in her hand with a smile, "Then I won't be polite."

Knowing that Gu Ci was here to discuss matters with his man, Gu didn't join in the fun, exchanged a few words, served tea and went out.

After waiting for the people to go out, Gu Ci took out the antler wrapped in cloth and showed it to Old Doctor Gu, "Old Doctor Gu, show me, is this thing valuable?"

Old Doctor Gu glanced at him, took the cloth bag and opened it, and was startled when he saw the contents inside, "Eldest sister, where did you get this thing?"

"I went up the mountain to hunt." Gu Ci didn't hide anything from old Doctor Gu, "I went hunting on the mountain a few days ago, and I happened to see this deer, and I squatted there for a while."

Old Doctor Gu squinted his eyes and looked at the things repeatedly, "Deer are timid by nature and extremely vigilant. It is usually difficult to hunt, but you are a good one."

Gu Ci licked his lower lip, "It's also good luck."

Old Doctor Gu looked at her and smiled, "I heard from the third child that the printing on the face of the girl you picked up cost a lot of money?"

"It's also my fault that I didn't pay attention at the time, and I didn't take it to heart when I got chickenpox." Gu Ci didn't want outsiders to think that she was innocent. There are many women in the village who like to provoke right and wrong, and it is inevitable that some gossip women like to go to A Bao. Talking nonsense in front of her broke the bond between the two children. "Since it can still be saved, then I will try my best."

"That's true." Old doctor Gu is also a kind person, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with Gu Ci's approach. He looked at the antler in his hand, lowered his head and smelled it, "You cleaned this thing well, so I'll give it away. Go to Jishantang, since that shameless old thing generously asks you to take the medicine first and then pay for it, he must not be stingy, and your stuff will probably be able to cover the girl’s three months’ medicine money at her place.”

Gu Ci was a little surprised, "Is this thing so valuable?"

"If you go to other places, this thing can give you 50 taels, it will be amazing." Old Doctor Gu sighed, "Elder sister, don't think that this thing is valuable, just keep walking into the mountains , after all, it’s a girl.”

Gu Ci felt a little warm in his heart, and smiled, "I regret my life."

Old Doctor Gu also laughed, "It's a pity."

After coming out of old doctor Gu's house, Gu Ci's mood was also a little flustered, and he planned to buy some more beautiful headbands for the little girl tomorrow, and also bought a small hairpin.

The next day, when it was still dark outside, Gu Ci packed up the two little ones. This time, I didn’t feel ashamed to bother Dr. Gu. Gu Ci walked there. Fortunately, not far from the entrance of the village, someone rushed He took the bullock cart to the town and took them along the way.

When we arrived in the town, it was already broad daylight. Gu Ci and his aunt made an appointment to meet at the end of the day. In the morning, everyone went to buy the things they wanted to buy first.

Gu Ci didn't dare to let his aunt know that she spent a lot of money on Jiaojiao's face printing, and when he arrived in town, he went to Jishantang first.

"It's not easy for you to take two children with you, this thing is worth three months' medicine money for that girl." Just as old Doctor Gu guessed, Doctor Li put away the thing after seeing it.

"Thank you, Doctor Li."

Dr. Li was most annoyed by these hypocrisy, and waved his hand, "There is no need to be so polite when you buy or sell what you like. Thank you so much. From now on, just send all such good things to me."

Gu Ci was also blunt, "That's natural."

When he came out of Jishantang, Gu Ci thought about what his aunt said that Jiaojiao's hands should be taken care of, and also considered that it was cold, and his face and hands would easily get sores and cracks from the cold, so he gave both Jiaojiao and Abao Some plasters for face and hands.Dr. Li looked at the pheasants and rabbits she was carrying, and he simply wrapped them up, and gave her hand and face cream that could last all winter.

This is a great bargain for Gu Ci. These plasters are generally unaffordable for farmers, and the things that rich people use are extremely expensive. She traded a few pheasants and rabbits for a winter plaster. It's such a good deal.

After taking the medicine, there is no need to sell pheasants and rabbits. Gu Ciye has nothing serious, and he feels a little relaxed. Thinking of the last time he was in a hurry and did not take the two little ones for a stroll, this time he listened to Jiaojiao and A Bao meant to let them take her away.

Stopping and stopping along the way, the whole morning passed quickly, because Jiaojiao didn't want hairpins, and got angry with her, she finally only bought two hair ropes for her, and bought some pens, ink, paper and inkstone for A Bao .

Abao is seven years old. After winter, everyone is not busy, and people with better conditions will send their children to enlightenment. Gu Ci doesn't expect Abao to be the champion in the future, but just hopes that he can know a few more words.

When the appointed time came, Gu Ci waited at the entrance with others. He and Hua were not dawdling people either. As soon as Gu Ci arrived at the appointed place, two aunts rushed over from the other side and greeted them a few words. , I went directly to the tailor shop that Hua mentioned.
