Chapter 73: Giving My Second Sister-in-Law Some Good Fortune
p their minds: if the gates were not opened, they would storm them no matter the cost. For their wives, children, and parents, they were willing to risk everything. They had nothing left to lose anyw...Zhou was selecting the embroidery thread for today's work when she glanced at Fu Chi-Chi squatting in the yard, drawing on the ground with a small stick. Every now and then, she would remind him, "Little nephew, be careful, don't get scratched by the stick."
"Okay, second sister-in-law," Fujujju can now answer very well.
Looking at the little girl, she's so soft and plump. Her voice is also so sweet.
The Zhou family truly has it good, but unfortunately, I'm not destined for that. I can't give birth to a little girl.
She saw the little milk dumpling drawing seriously, with form and likeness, and was instantly curious, "Little aunt, what are you drawing"
"Flower." Fu Jiujiu said in a milky, sweet voice.
“Flowers Is it a morning glory or some other kind of flower Let the second sister-in-law have a look, little sister’s drawing, is it like”
Exactly what Fu Jiujiu had in mind, "Good idea, second sister-in-law. Have a look."
Mrs. Wu slowly got up and walked over. She stared at the strange drawings on the ground, her expression changing from confusion to amazement, then to excitement.
"Little aunt, what kind of flower is this"
Fujuju shook her head, "Jiujiu flower."
It's actually a iris, but Fu Jiujiu hasn't seen one around the village yet. Probably it doesn't grow here. She's already looked. The material in Er Sao's hand is a gemstone blue and looks very good with the iris.
However, speaking of which, my second sister-in-law is quite skilled at embroidery, but the color combinations are a bit too flashy.
She put many colored threads on the clothes, making it look a bit messy. The red dress wasn't bright enough, and the white one wasn't elegant enough.
All in all, it was just a little bit off in terms of flavor.
Zhou Shi trailed her chin, unknowingly staring for a long time. She thought the flower was beautiful and had never seen it before. Hearing Fu Jiujiu's words, she smiled faintly.
"Chirp chirp flower Is it because it's a chirp chirp flower"
Fu Jiu Jiu nodded, her second sister-in-law was truly clever; she didn't need to say much.
"This flower is nice, I wonder how it would look embroidered on clothes." Lady Wu said to herself.
"So pretty!"
In the end, it was Fu Jujju who gave her an idea.
My little sister-in-law is a lucky charm for our family. When she said my elder sister-in-law was pregnant, my elder sister-in-law really became pregnant.
Wu’s eyes lit up. “Good, since my younger sister-in-law said it looks good, then second sister-in-law should embroider this flower onto this piece of cloth, how about that”
Scrap cloth is the leftover fabric from cutting clothes. Try it on this first to avoid ruining your clothes.
Of course Fu Jiujiu had no objection.
Zhou stood straight with her belly, which had yet to swell, and her posture was even more exaggerated than Wu, who was about to give birth. Hearing the conversation between the two, she let out a laugh.
"Second brother, this style has been rejected several times, hasn't it You're not putting any effort in and even let your younger sister-in-law give you advice. I think you've gone mad."
Sister-in-law, your younger sister is our lucky star. If she says it's beautiful, then it is beautiful. Anyway, it has been returned several times already, so what's the difference if it's returned one more time
Zhou pouted and didn't say any more, thinking that when the baby in her belly was born, she would still have to trouble the second son's family to make clothes.
Since all the arrangements are made by Xiao Nai Tuanzi, Wu simply asked her more questions. She really had no other way.
"Little sister, how does this red thread look The clothes are blue, and red goes well with it."
"This flower petal with a touch of yellow would be vibrant!"
Red, yellow, and blue, the three primary colors are complete.
Fujujiao is a pity for her good embroidery skills, but her aesthetics are not sophisticated enough.
"It's not pretty." Fu Jiujiu shook her head decisively.
"Not pretty" Mistress Wu was quite taken aback. Her embroidery was considered excellent among women, and to be called "not pretty" by a little ball of fluff hurt her feelings.
But because this little ball of fluff isn't just anyone, it's Fu Jiujiu, she's doing a bit better.
"What color does your younger sister like" Wu shi just asked casually, she still wanted to stick to her own opinion.
Fu Jiujiu picked out a dark purple embroidery thread from the pile and gave it to Lady Wu.
Turquoise is already dazzling in its own right, and using other overly bright colors would be a bit overwhelming.
If paired with warm colors, it would be quite nice, looking bright and cheerful. However, according to Mrs. Wu's description, the owner of this garment is a composed lady who is somewhat older. Colors that are too vibrant wouldn't suit her.
"This...does it look good" To be honest, Wu shi still trusted her own judgment quite a bit.
Fu Jiujiao still held onto the embroidery thread tightly, as if she had just grasped its essence.
"Little sister-in-law, do you like this color" Mrs. Wu asked helplessly.
Fujuju nodded heavily, "It's beautiful."
"I don't think this is quite right. It's not bright enough at all."
Ms. Wu sighed, but seeing Fu Jiujiu's insistence, she couldn't bear to disappoint the little dumpling, "Alright alright, second sister-in-law, I'll embroider a flower for you to look at!"
Mrs. Wu's hands were quick, even with a big belly she wasn't affected at all, and by the time dinner was ready, she had finished embroidering it.
She looked at what she had embroidered, gave a wry smile, "The flowers are pretty, but the colors... oh well..."
"Auntie, look, this color isn't very nice, is it"
Fu Jiu Jiu suddenly felt a difference, it seemed more high-class, more meaningful and steady than the jumping red color. It was more introverted and had a few points of nobility.
Thus, she clapped her hands in applause.
"Good" Mrs. Wu shook her head gently. "Alright, let's just leave it like this for now. I'll go to town tomorrow and ask the owner about this design."
As for the color, I'd leave it up to the proprietress.
The next day, Yunqiao Embroidery Workshop.
"Beautiful! Oh, Suzhi! I knew you could do it. Just embroider this flower!"
Of course Wu was happy, because after being rejected one after another, she couldn't bear the blow inside. "Mr. Cui, are you sure Will this design work"
"That's right!" the proprietress exclaimed, holding the fabric with a lovestruck expression. "You should have shown me this pattern earlier! This order would have been finished ages ago! You kept it hidden from me."
Mrs. Wu didn't explain much either; she was very grateful to her younger sister-in-law in her heart, and this time it was finally her turn to enjoy some good fortune.
"What do you think of this color I've never really thought about what color to use Red or yellow"
"Well... no need. I think this color is quite nice, you see the fabric paired with this color, it looks more luxurious."
Your eyesight is pretty good this time.
Wu touched her head, a little confused. Although she was being praised, she didn't quite feel like it was about her. "Is...is that so"
Of course, trust me this time it's definitely right. Go back and stitch quickly, the customer is waiting to wear it.
"Good." Mrs. Wu was still a little dizzy, this time the accident went surprisingly smoothly.
"Are you about to give birth"
"Almost there," Wu replied.
"Then we have to hurry even more, don't keep the guests waiting. But you have to take care of yourself too." Yunqiao Embroidery Shop's owner was named Yunqiao, and she had been working with Mrs. Wu for many years, they were considered friends.
"Don't worry, once the design is confirmed it'll be easy."
Yun Qiao nodded, she trusted Wu's words greatly, "This time, your eyesight is truly good, it's unlike anything I've seen from you before."
Mrs. Wu gave a bitter smile. "You're right, it wasn't something I came up with."
