A lucky wife born again from a farm family

After hearing this, the shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery Shop was very happy and said with a smile: "Don't call me madam, my surname is Li. Let's go by seniority. You three can just call me Grandma Li."

Mrs. Jiang nodded in agreement: "Old sisters are right, Xiaoyu, Sister Xiuer, and Huiniang, you can just call me Grandma Jiang from now on. Calling me Madam is too harsh."

Then he looked at the shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery Shop and said, "But if you want to see the embroidery pictures, you have to wait a moment, Mrs. Xu is coming."

After hearing this, all the ladies and ladies present looked happy and asked Mrs. Jiang: "Madam, Mrs. Xu is also here to beg for tricks today?"

Mrs. Jiang nodded: "Well, Miss Xu is a lover of embroidery. She came here last year. I heard that I will also hold a begging party this year. I sent a message two days ago saying that she would come."

The shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery Shop didn't care about the county magistrate's wife, but since Mrs. Jiang said to wait, she didn't say anything else.

After a while, Mrs. Xu and her party arrived, along with Mrs. Zou, one of her granddaughters, and Zou Yuwan.

When Zou Yuwan saw Gu Jinli, the perfect smile on her face could hardly be maintained... Mrs. Jiang was really crazy. She actually invited these mean-legged girls to a begging banquet and sat with them. She felt sick.

Gu Jinli was also surprised to see Zou Yuwan, but what surprised her was that Mrs. Zou and Aunt Lu were having a fierce fight, and she actually brought Zou Yuwan with her.

Mrs. Zou is a few years older than Mrs. Jiang. Her face is saggy and her forehead lines are a bit heavy. Her eyes have a sharp look when she looks at people. Fortunately, she always has a smile on her face, and she also appreciates Gu Jinli and the others. add.

Speaking of which, Mrs. Zou brought Zou Yuwan today because she knew that the Jiang family had invited the Gu family, and the Lu family and the Gu family were not getting along, so she brought Zou Yuwan here specifically to try to antagonize Zou Yuwan.

Mrs. Xu looks like a bookish woman in her early thirties. The girl next to her looks a lot like her. She looks very demure, but her big twinkling eyes reveal a certain intelligence.

"Mrs. Jiang, these are the girls from the Gu family? Who is the girl with excellent embroidery skills?" Miss Xu asked after returning the gift to Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang took Gu Jinxiu's hand and said, "This is the one I call Sister Xiu."

Miss Xu looked at Gu Jinxiu and praised, "Sister Xiu, you are so beautiful."

Among the girls present, this girl from the Gu family is the prettiest.

Gu Jinxiu smiled sheepishly and said, "Miss Xu is so complimentary. She is not as good as Miss Xu."

Miss Xu was a little surprised. She still thought that the Gu family would be very vulgar because of their mud-legged behavior. She didn't expect that Gu Jinxiu could speak in such a polite manner, which made her feel a little more happy.

"I've looked at the pictures you embroidered of the dragon boat race and the picture of the boy taking a nap in the water. They are really excellent. Did you bring new pictures today?"

Gu Jinxiu nodded: "I brought a picture of busy farming."

Miss Xu was very happy: "I also brought one. Let's see who can embroider better."

The shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery House couldn't wait any longer. When he heard this, he said: "You two girls, stop talking and quickly take out the pictures. Let's compare. This begging festival is not about women's red embroidery skills."

Mrs. Jiang was very considerate to Mrs. Xu. After hearing this, she first asked her, "What do you think, Madam?"

Mrs. Xu said: "Of course it's good. My sister Shu has been talking about it at home for a few days. If I don't let her see the Gu girl's embroidery drawings quickly, she will have to hurry to me."

After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang said to all the ladies present: "Girls, please take out your embroidery. Whoever wins this year's clever lady will be lucky."

"Big prize? Then we must have a competition." The speaker was the daughter of Bantou Yang. Bantou Yang was Jiang County Lieutenant's confidant. She had been attending Jiang Mansion's begging banquet every year since she was seven years old.

Aunt Wen has already led the maids to put together several tables to form a long table two feet long.

More than twenty girls took out their own embroidery and put it on the table. There was a dazzling array of embroidery, some were embroidering purses, some were embroidering handkerchiefs, some were embroidering small pictures, some were embroidering large pictures, and some people directly took out a piece of embroidery. Here comes some clothes.

Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Zou, and the shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery Shop were the judges. The four of them looked at the embroidery products from left to right.

When Mrs. Jiang and the others saw Gu Jinxiu's picture of busy farming, they all exclaimed: "This embroidered picture is really lifelike, especially the characters on it are very vivid. Not only are there people working in the fields and harvesting , even the old woman who brought her children to deliver food at the edge of the field was embroidered with great detail."

After seeing Gu Jinxiu's picture of busy farming, Miss Xu was convinced: "Needless to say, the most beautiful lady this year is Sister Xiu, and none of us can embroider better than her."

Miss Xu is a girl from the county magistrate's family and has the highest status among the girls present. Moreover, she is also last year's Qiao Niang. She is famous for her good embroidery skills. When she says this, the other girls naturally say nothing.

However, there are always some people who like to seek death.

Zou Yuwan said: "Madams, since Miss Gu's embroidery skills are so outstanding, why not let her embroider a small picture for us on the spot... After all, the embroidery picture Miss Gu brought was embroidered at home, and we didn't see it either. Embroidering one on the spot will open our eyes."

Mrs. Jiang's face darkened when she heard Zou Yuwan's words. Zou Yuwan was questioning whether the embroidery pictures brought by Sister Xiu were not embroidered by herself!

Humph, a concubine is a concubine. Not only is she petty, she also has a dark mind and cannot afford to lose.

Zou Yuwan just felt that Gu Jinxiu's embroidery pictures were not embroidered by herself. How could a farm girl who escaped from famine have such amazing embroidery skills?

The shopkeeper of Huaiyu Embroidery Shop smiled and said: "What a coincidence, I also want to see Sister Xiu's skills. Old sisters, why don't you let Sister Xiu embroider a small picture for us to see."

Real gold is not afraid of fire. Since Zou Yuwan has questioned it, if Gu Jinxiu doesn't show it to everyone on the spot, it will inevitably be reported that she is lying.

Mrs. Jiang looked at Gu Jinxiu and asked, "What do you think, Sister Xiu?"

If the child didn't want to embroider, she would block it for her.

Gu Jinxiu smiled easily: "Of course it's okay."

When Mrs. Jiang saw her, she liked Gu Jinxiu even more. This girl looked weak, but she was soft on the outside and strong on the inside. She was not afraid of anything.

but……

"Since we are all competing together, why not all embroider one on the spot, and let us see which girl embroiders well."

As soon as Mrs. Jiang said these words, many girls present fell in love with Zou Yuwan.

They didn't know if Gu Jinxiu's embroidery was done by someone else, but their embroidery was done by a maid with good skills at home for the skill-begging banquet.

Now because of Zou Yuwan, they were going to be embarrassed on the spot.

Zou Yuwan didn't expect Mrs. Jiang to come out like this, and she was very angry. This old pious woman had offended most of the rich and powerful ladies in the county with just one word.
