In order to repair General Gu's clothes, Xi Jin and Lan'er casually had a few bites of lunch that day, and then devoted themselves to repairing again.
This sitting lasted all afternoon.
Seeing that it was almost evening, other people in the workshop slowly dispersed and went home. The last bit of embroidery was still not finished.
Lan'er Niang said very embarrassedly: "Daughter-in-law Xie Luo, I really delayed you today. In this case, I will go back to cook first. You and Xie Luo can have dinner at my house tonight!"
Xi Jin raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window, and then he remembered that he had promised to cook dinner for Xie Luo in the morning. He had really forgotten everything in this busy schedule!
Even if I go back now, it's too late, not to mention that the clothes haven't been repaired yet, and the steward of General Gu's mansion will come to get it at any time.
"Then there's Aunt Lao." Xi Jin replied with a smile.
Lan'er's mother waved her hands repeatedly: "I dare not say that. Without you, we, Lan'er, would be in trouble today."
Lan'er Niang patted her clothes and stood up: "Then I will go back first. When you are busy, remember to come back quickly."
"Okay." The two agreed, without even raising their heads, and continued to immerse themselves in embroidery.
After this busy time, another incense stick's time passed. Xi Jin picked up the repaired clothes and looked at them. There were almost no signs of tearing.
"Sister Jin, you are so amazing. Looking at it this way, you can't tell that this dress has been torn at all. With the unicorn pattern, it makes this dress even more noble."
Lan'er picked up the clothes and looked at them again and again. She was very happy, but she saw that Xi Jin was silent: "Sister Jin, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about? But there is something wrong."
Xi Jin came back to his senses and shook his head: "No, very good. I believe General Gu will be satisfied."
Just when Xi Jin was picking up his clothes, he suddenly felt that the size looked very familiar.
Many years ago, I could still remember the scene of me repairing Shangguan Bao's clothes. I thought that General Gu must be as dignified as Shangguan Bao!
As soon as they had repaired their clothes, Mrs. Li ran in from outside: "Here, the manager is here. Have your clothes been embroidered?"
"The embroidery is done." Lan'er held up the dress to show Mrs. Li, "Aunt Li, look, is this dress well embroidered?"
"Oh, my God, is this the same dress just now? This dress is so expensive!" Mrs. Li looked at it and exclaimed repeatedly.
"Lan'er, hurry up and go with me to give clothes to the manager. Maybe your future is here." Mrs. Li pulled Lan'er and was about to leave.
Lan'er hurriedly stopped and said, "Aunt Li, this dress was embroidered by Sister Jin. Why don't you let Sister Jin go with you?"
Mrs. Li looked at Xi Jin with some hesitation.
Xi Jin quickly shook his head: "You go ahead, I won't get involved. I'll wait here for you to go home for dinner together."
Lan'er thought for a while, nodded, and went out with Mrs. Li.
Xi Jin waited in the room for a while, remembering that he was supposed to make clothes for Vice General Liang today, but due to this delay, he forgot about the business.
So I picked up the clothes and started sewing. I also listened to Xie Luo's suggestion and thickened the knees and elbows.
After about a cup of tea, Xi Jin heard footsteps outside the door. Xi Jin asked without raising his head: "Lan'er, you're back so soon?"
Xi Jin didn't hear the answer, so he put down his needlework and looked up, only to see a girl standing at the door. She looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. She was beautiful and charming, but her frowning eyebrows made people dislike her. .
"You don't look like this!" The girl's words were unkind as soon as she opened her mouth.
As soon as Xijin heard this voice, she remembered that she was Shi Lingyin, the village chief's daughter.
"I wonder what the lady wants from me?" Xi Jin stood up and asked politely.
"How old are you?" The girl raised her head proudly. Although she was not as tall as Xi Jin, she still looked arrogant to others.
"Miss, I will be seventeen soon." Xi Jin said matter-of-factly.
"You're also older than me." Shi Lingyin made no secret of his happiness, and the look in his eyes showed a trace of a winner.
"Yes." Xi Jin responded softly.
"Then you might as well be smarter. Maybe I can let you make a living in Yazhou!" Shi Lingyin said proudly.
"What does Miss Shi mean by this?" Xi Jin said coldly.
Before Shi Lingyin could answer, she heard Lan'er's happy voice coming from the door.
"Sister Jin, I'm back."
Upon hearing this, Xi Jin knew that she must have successfully handed over the assignment.
"Is everything going well?" Seeing Lan'er running over happily, Xi Jin hurriedly greeted her.
"It went well, it went well. The manager kept praising us for the good work of our clothes and rewarded me with some money." Lan'er happily took Xi Jin's arm and said, "Sister Jin, look who's here."
Xi Jin looked in the direction of Lan'er's finger and saw Xie Luo standing at the door looking forward to it: "Why is he here?"
"Brother Xie must be unable to wait until he sees his sister." Lan'er said with a secret smile.
"At a young age, I learned to say these inappropriate things."
Xi Jin tapped her nose and subconsciously looked back at Shi Lingyin.
He saw her staring at Xie Luo intently, with a shy expression unique to girls on her face.
Xi Jin thought for a moment, then turned around and ran quickly towards Xie Luo, and immediately threw herself into his arms: "Husband, do you miss me?"
Xie Luo was worried about going home alone at night and thought of picking her up.
But he never expected that Xi Jin would embrace her so enthusiastically, and he couldn't react for a while.
"Of course I miss you." Xie Luo happily hugged the woman in his arms, "Why are you so enthusiastic today? It's not like you."
Xi Jin raised her head from his arms, reached out and stroked his temples, then turned around and saluted Shi Lingyin, who was still in a daze: "Miss Shi, my husband has come to pick me up, I will go first I'm back."
After listening to Xi Jin's words, Shi Chengyin came to his senses. It turned out that he was Xie Luo!
"Brother Xie is so kind to Sister Jin, I really envy others!" Lan'er glanced at Shi Lingyin and said deliberately.
"Miss Shi, let's go back first!"
Shi Lingyin waved his hand angrily, but his eyes were still fixed on Xie Luo.
As expected, her mother did not lie to her. There was indeed a more handsome man in the world than General Gu.
It's a pity that he already has a wife, but it doesn't matter. That Mu Xijin is old and ugly, how can he compare with himself? As long as he uses some tricks, Xie Luo is not his own.
"Jin'er, you are not like your usual self today." Xie Luo said with a smile.
Xi Jin snorted softly: "You have to thank me. If I hadn't taken over your wife's status, you would have been dragged by the village chief to become a son-in-law."
"What?" Xie Luo was confused, "What kind of son-in-law?"
