Chapter 222 Why do I kneel
Previously, when Sheng Yuewen wanted to use Zhao Yinlian's fake identity to cause trouble and embarrass Chaohuang Embroidery House, so that she could take the opportunity to acquire Chaohuang Embroidery House and destroy Song Yao's hard work, she had also mentioned it in a vague way. , another embroiderer who collaborated with her to embroider Buddhist images is no longer alive.
It is unavoidable that someone with good intentions wants to use this to cause trouble, put a disrespectful label on Chaohuang Embroidery Fang and Song Yao, and cause the disaster of annihilation. It is best not to mention the identity of the other embroiderer to others.
In order to obscure the number of people and prevent anyone from guessing anything, Song Yao always claimed that the Buddha worship painting was completed by ten embroiderers.
Experts look at the door, while laymen look at the excitement.
But even an expert would not have guessed that this Buddha worship painting was only completed by two people if they had not seen it with their own eyes.
After all, the acupuncture techniques involved have their own methods.
An embroiderer is already very powerful if she can master one or two stitches.
Just a little attention to other things is enough.
But her mother-in-law is amazing.
Almost every acupuncture method is as familiar as eating and drinking, and can be mastered easily.
Her mother-in-law is not only good at Su embroidery, but also Shu embroidery, Guangdong embroidery, and Hunan embroidery.
Jiang Anning occasionally even felt that her mother-in-law was like a fairy who could do everything. Because she accidentally fell into the mortal world and met her father, because of her... she could no longer stay in the mortal world.
Now, she just returned to heaven again.
But then I thought about the conversation I overheard when I came out of the county jail that day.
Although she didn't hear many words very clearly, it didn't hinder her from piecing together the truth from the minutiae.
They said that her father was not her biological father.
Her real father is a villain who abandoned her mother...
There is also Sang Ni, who is Yang Qing.
He was the one who killed her mother-in-law twice, or even more than twice!
The first time was to force A Niang to leave the Sang clan.
The second time, it caused my mother-in-law to leave the place where my father’s house was.
The third time...
Jiang Anning couldn't help but wonder, is there a third time?
Why did Aniang suddenly go to the capital with her father? What did they do?
Why was he killed on his way back?
There were also people who kept watching her after that.
Could it be that the imperial edict appointing her as the number one embroiderer in Jiang'an County, specifically responsible for sewing auspicious wedding clothes for the young master of Jiang'an Marquis Mansion, was also a conspiracy?
What is the calculation?
Her life?
Maybe, this time in Beijing, she will be able to get closer to the truth about the murder of her grandma and her father, right?
Thinking of this, Jiang Anning not only didn't feel scared, but instead felt even more excited.
Mrs. An was very satisfied with Jiang Anning's embroidery.
After Jiang Anning freshened up and changed into the clothes for the guests, Mrs. An sent Fuluan over again, invited people over, and praised them very much.
Jiang Anning said a few words of modesty before accepting all the compliments.
The agreement between the two was finally completed.
Mrs. An paid Jiang Anning as promised.
Jiang Anning looked at the entire tray of silver ingots and was a little surprised.
"Mrs. An gave too much. Our original agreement was..."
Mrs. An interrupted her with a smile: "Not much!"
"What was originally agreed upon is what was originally agreed upon."
She smiled and said: "Today is different from the past. Now that your status is different, the price must be more expensive. Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that I am taking advantage of you?"
"Then this..."
Jiang Anning's eyes passed over the ingots of silver and landed on the last golden hairpin inlaid with hundreds of treasures.
"I just got this gold hairpin from the Silver Mansion not long ago. The color looks a bit younger. I thought it would complement you, so I gave it to you as well."
Jiang Anning was about to refuse, but Mrs. An was one step ahead of her, pretending to be angry: "How can I say that at my age, I am old enough to be your elder? It is a gift given by an elder, and you cannot refuse it."
"This is my intention."
"In the future, when you become more prosperous, just don't forget that there is still a person like me. I'm still thinking about dating you for an eight-panel screen!"
What Mrs. An said was true and sincere.
It was hard for Jiang Anning to refuse.
What's more...
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.
Although she didn't know why Mrs. An did this.
But since it was such a big battle, I gave her these many things.
If he refuses at this time, he might send it again somewhere else and think of other ways.
It's better to accept it openly now.
Just think of it as giving people an attitude: her embroidery is worth the price.
So she had the confidence to accept the money.
"In that case, I would like to thank Mrs. An for her kindness in advance."
Jiang Anning suddenly and generously accepted the gold and silver gift, which indeed surprised Mrs. An.
She raised her eyebrows in surprise, and soon laughed again: "As long as you are willing to accept it."
As he said that, he turned his head and glanced at Fuluan next to him.
Fuluan understood, immediately stepped forward with a smile, and respectfully handed over an invitation.
Mrs. An followed and said: "My daughter's birthday party is scheduled for two days later. I wonder if I have the honor to invite Jiang Xiu Niang to watch the ceremony and have wine."
Two days later...
September twenty-seven.
Jiang Anning's face was slightly ugly, and she showed an uncontrollable look of discomfort,
However, generally the birthday banquets of wealthy families are not held on the birthday.
Instead, choose the most auspicious day in the month of your birthday and arrange a banquet.
Come to think of it, the eldest lady of the An family is no exception.
Suppressing the strange emotions in her heart, Jiang Anning didn't think much and agreed with a smile.
"I am lucky to be able to attend Miss An's birthday party. I will definitely come early when the time comes."
Mrs. An smiled and talked to others for a while.
Originally I wanted to keep people to eat.
However, the man from the porter ran over and said, "The carriage from Huangxiufang is coming."
Jiang Anning smiled and said sorry: "I thought that my mission was successfully completed, so I couldn't continue to stay in your house and eat your food in vain, so I found someone and went to the embroidery workshop to tell me I made a sound, I think they came to pick me up based on the time.”
In this way, Mrs. An would naturally find it difficult to keep anyone in mind.
"So that's it."
Mrs. An said angrily: "You girl, it's true. How can I still be without your food? I wish you could stay in my house for a longer time. I don't want to do this again in the future!" ”
Jiang Anning smiled and said politely: "Next time, definitely." Mrs. An knew that she couldn't keep anyone, so she generously asked Fuluan to see him off.
Not long after he walked out of Mrs. An's courtyard, Jiang Anning suddenly saw a very familiar figure.
She stopped suddenly, opened her eyes wide, and looked at the place where the figure disappeared.
"What's the matter, Jiang Xiu Niang?"
Fuluan felt that the person had stopped and hurriedly turned around and asked: "But suddenly I remembered, what was left behind?"
Jiang Anning shook her head.
Her face turned slightly pale, and there was a tremor in her voice that she had not even noticed: "Who was the person who just passed by?"
Fuluan didn't pay attention to who passed by just now, and couldn't help but look at the little maid beside him.
The little maid whispered a few words in her ear.
Fuluan immediately smiled and said: "She is my eldest lady."
Miss An?
Jiang Anning frowned slightly, wondering if she was too nervous and preoccupied, so she was dazzled and saw the wrong thing.
How could Miss An be—that person?
"But is there any problem?" Fuluan asked cautiously: "I see that your face seems a little bad."
She thought for a moment and asked tentatively: "Do you know my eldest lady?"
Jiang Anning came back to her senses and shook her head: "I don't know."
"The eldest lady of your house has a high status. I'm just from the countryside. How can I know her?"
It's just that when the figure flashed by, I felt a bit similar.
Jiang Anning quickly calmed down: "I'm just a little envious."
envious?
Fuluan was puzzled and soon figured it out.
Yes, who can not envy it?
Those who are born to forage in the fields and those who are born to live in fine clothes are naturally two very different lives.
She choked softly and reminded people: "Let's go, Jiang Xiu Niang."
"Okay."
Jiang Anning inadvertently looked in the direction where the figure disappeared, took another look, and then quickly restored her bright smile.
It doesn’t matter if it’s that person or not.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
The worst thing is, kill one more person!
Thinking of this, Jiang Anning's smile became even brighter, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
Fuluan was even more confused.
I always feel that this person's good mood seems to come from a very strange place.
She was frowning just now, as if someone had robbed her of her money, but now, she seems to be very happy again?
How strange!
After sending the person away, Fuluan thought about it for a while and told Mrs. An truthfully.
"You mean, after seeing the eldest lady, her expression was very gloomy, as if she had seen a sad person?"
Mrs. An was also very surprised.
Fuluan nodded: "A little bit... When I first saw the man's expression, I was very shocked. However, I was afraid of arousing suspicion, so I didn't dare to say anything, let alone show anything strange."
"However, within a short period of time, Jiang Xiu Niang's mood began to improve again."
"This slave feels a little strange, so I want to tell you about it so as not to delay things."
Mrs. An said "hmm" and praised: "You did a good job!"
After she sent the people down, she was thoughtful.
Is it possible that Jiang Anning knows her daughter?
There is still that strange look of hatred... But I have never heard of any dispute between the two of them before?
Feeling strange, after thinking for a while, Mrs. An got up and went to the yard of the eldest lady of the An family.
-
The person who came to Huang Xiufang to pick up Jiang Anning was none other than Duan Qingshan, who wanted to kill his enemies for Jiang Anning and pay for his life with his life.
Now, although Song Yao has woken up, his body is still weak and he cannot take into account the sound of Chaohuang Xiufang.
Jiang Anning arrived at Mrs. An's house again.
Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop was taken over by Mrs. An instead of Duan Qingshan.
It's not that Mrs. An suddenly lost interest in Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop.
It was Boss Wei Qiuyue of Qiuyue Embroidery Workshop. He suddenly came to the door and said something to someone. Mrs. An, who had originally used Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop as her own backyard, moved back to An on the same day. Mansion.
She also knew this when she overheard the two little maids from the An mansion talking.
...Well, it’s not unintentional.
In fact, thanks to the rewards from those people in [Barrage], she could almost hear the voices of everyone in the entire An residence.
At the beginning, it really caused her trouble and headache for some days.
No matter who it is, it’s as if several theater troupes are suddenly living in their ears, singing, chanting and beating in front of their voices. Wouldn’t they be able to bear the torture?
It was later that she mastered some tricks and was able to freely control the range of sounds she heard, the sounds from which direction, and whose voices she listened to and whose voices she did not listen to. This made things better.
Then, by chance, I heard such a gossip.
I heard that Mrs. An was very angry that day and her words were full of curses.
I don't even know what Wei Qiuyue said to people to make them so angry.
The most strange thing is that Wei Qiuyue and Song Yao, on the surface, are like fire and water, but they are not fighting to the death.
But according to Xie Yutong, Song Yao could wake up thanks to Wei Qiuyue for stimulating people's emotions.
Now she was dissatisfied because Mrs. An occupied Chaohuang Embroidery Workshop. She was not afraid of offending all the embroidery workshops in Jiang'an County. Like the biggest financial owner, she ran away in anger all night, and even cursed fiercely after returning home. all night.
"Has anything happened recently?"
Jiang Anning sat at the door of the carriage and asked Duan Qingshan through the door.
"No."
After Duan Qingshan finished speaking, his voice paused: "Not long ago, an imperial edict was sent to Chaohuang Embroidery Fang. Is this a big deal?"
Jiang Anning:......
If you can even ignore the imperial edict, you are truly worthy of being a big bandit reserve!
She twitched the corner of her mouth slightly, forced herself to remain speechless, and said as calmly as possible: "Of course I will."
"Please tell me carefully about the imperial edict. Who received the edict? What was said? Did you really ask me to go to the capital to sew auspicious wedding clothes for people?"
Duan Qingshan said "Hmm": "Originally I was the one to take the job, but they all thought I was clumsy, so they asked me to wait aside. Don't mess around with me. I won't offend the Tian family, but will bring trouble to you." What a disaster.”
Jiang Anning:......
She always felt that things would not be as casual as Duan Qingshan said.
However, now is not the time to ask about these details.
"Then what?"
"Then Boss Wei from Qiuyue Embroidery Shop came over with his people, pulling tables and setting up incense tables. He knelt down on the floor with cheers..."
Jiang Anning keenly grasped an amazing detail: "You didn't kneel?"
"Why should I kneel?"
