The First Daughter of Rebirth
Chapter 66 Birthday Ceremony
In the early morning, Zhao Keran woke up from his dream. There was no dream last night, and Zhao Keran slept very comfortably. After waking up, Zhao Keran was confused and didn't know where he was. After a while, Zhao Keran slowly
Suddenly he woke up. Zhao Keran felt his face getting hot when he thought of what happened last night.
Thinking of how she cried in Situ Xu's arms last night, and how she told Situ Xu her inner grievances. Thinking of this, Zhao Keran felt ashamed and buried her head in the bed. She kept thinking in her heart, "Oh my god."
, It’s so embarrassing. I’m just a fool. That Situ Xu, I haven’t even understood who he is yet, so I just confided in him like this. I’m so heartless! Also, I seem to have promised something,
But, what is it? Zhao Keran couldn't remember it for a while. Zhao Keran raised his head and tried to remember.
Last night, I was in a bad mood, and then Situ Xu came and confessed to her. Thinking of this, Zhao Keran's face turned redder. Then, he told Situ Xu about his feelings, and then he seemed to
I cried and fell into his arms. It seemed like there was something else, maybe I had missed something.
By the way, maid. Zhao Keran finally remembered. It turned out that before leaving last night, Situ Xu said that he would send some maids to him, and he had already agreed. Thinking of this, Zhao Keran couldn't help but call himself a fool again.
. She didn't even know who Situ Xu was, but she had already agreed to accept the maid as a gift. However, Zhao Keran didn't know why, but she seemed to still believe that Situ Xu would not hurt her.
Even though he said he didn't want to believe him, his heart still moved closer to him involuntarily. Not only was he willing to reveal his true feelings to him, but he was even willing to show his vulnerable side in front of him. Zhao Keran couldn't help it either.
Understand, why do you believe in Situ Xu so much? It’s really strange.
However, since she can't figure it out, Zhao Keran will not waste her brain power thinking about this problem. However, she will still accept the maid sent by Situ Xu, because she is indeed short of people around her. Long'er is too young, and
She is not calm enough to do big things. Although Yue Gu is shrewd, she is old after all, and many things are beyond her ability. And in this family, apart from them, she really has no other confidants. Now Zhao Keren is keeping pace with everything.
Come on, she really needs manpower. Besides, it seems that Situ Xu is not an ordinary person, and the maid he found should be better than ordinary maids. Besides, she believes that Situ Xu will not harm her.
Thinking of this, Zhao Keran felt more relieved. If Situ Xu could hear Zhao Keran's voice now, I don't know how happy he would be.
Not long after, Yue Gu and Long'er came in to freshen up Zhao Keran.
After Zhao Keran finished breakfast, he went to the pavilion of Chunhui Garden and continued to complete his embroidery. Now there are only about ten days left before Mrs. Qin's birthday. Zhao Keran plans to embroider a screen and give it to his grandmother.
As a birthday gift, Zhao Keran's embroidery skills are extraordinary because of her studies in her previous life. This time she didn't just embroider a screen, she embroidered it on both sides!
The so-called double-sided embroidery is also called double-sided embroidery, which means that on the same base material, in the same embroidery process, the front and back images are embroidered, with exactly the same outline and equally exquisite patterns, both of which can be carefully appreciated.
In fact, to put it bluntly, double-sided embroidery is an embroidery method that uses one stitch to simultaneously embroider a pattern of the same color on the front and back on a piece of base material. It is different from single-sided embroidery: the single-sided embroidery method only requires the workmanship of the front side.
You don’t have to worry about the stitching lines on the reverse side; while double-sided embroidery requires both sides to be neat and even.
Double-sided three-different-color embroidery was invented on the basis of double-sided different-color embroidery. It is also a development of double-sided different-color embroidery. Its characteristics are: the front and back of the embroidery are different, with different stitches and different colors. That is, the front and back are different.
The corresponding parts on the opposite sides have different patterns, different stitching methods, and different colors. It allows viewers to appreciate the embroidery art images of different patterns, different stitching methods, and different colors on one embroidery.
There are several key points when doing double-sided embroidery. First, when embroidering, cut the thread tails neatly, pierce from top to bottom, and then start the needle two or three threads away from the needle, and draw out a little thread tail. When lowering the needle, remove the thread tail.
Press down and connect the short needle several times to hide the end of the thread so that the thread ends are not exposed on both sides. Second, hold the needle vertically when embroidering so as not to pierce the embroidery thread on the back. Third, master the needle arrangement: follow the order
Arrange the stitches very evenly, without improper spacing, so that the two sides can be equal. Fourth, hiding the ends means hiding the end of the thread in the last stitch and not exposing the end of the thread.
These four points are very simple to say, but they are very difficult to actually implement. Each step must be mastered well. If any step is wrong, the double-sided embroidery will become very ugly, even the single-sided embroidery will be very ugly.
Even embroidery can't compare with it. Especially in double-sided embroidery, the skill of closing the thread is particularly important. I think it took Zhao Keran a whole month of learning to barely learn it. Later, Zhao Keran practiced it often. Therefore, now Zhao Keran has fully
I have mastered the double-sided embroidery method, so it is not very difficult to embroider. In addition, Zhao Keran started embroidering a month ago, so he should be able to embroider it before my grandmother's birthday.
One side of this screen is a picture of a crane celebrating longevity. In Taoism, the crane is a symbol of longevity, so there is the term crane. Most of the ancestors of Taoism used cranes or sacred deer as their seats. And the crane mentioned here,
In fact, it is the red-crowned crane. The red-crowned crane has an elegant temperament and beautiful shape. It is known for its "three long" beak, neck and legs. When upright, it can reach more than one meter high. It looks like a fairy and is called "a first-class bird". Its status is only
Second to the Phoenix. In addition, the crane occupies a very important position in Chinese culture. It is closely related to immortality and human spiritual character. My grandmother is now nearly sixty years old, so this pattern is very suitable.
of.
On the other side of the screen, there is a picture of a flat peach offering longevity. On it is a chubby child holding a flat peach in his hand. Legend has it that the Queen Mother of the West is a fairy who lives in the Kunlun Mountains in western China. Every year on the 18th day of the seventh lunar month, she celebrates the birthday of Yaochi.
Xijinmu Christmas. The Queen Mother's peach garden has 3,600 peach trees. The front 1,200 trees have tiny flowers and fruits that ripen once every 3,000 years. People who eat them will become immortals and attain enlightenment. The middle 1,200 trees have 6,000 years of age.
Once ripe, a person who eats the Xia Li will ascend to the sky and live forever. The following are 1,200 plants with purple lines and fine cores. Once they are ripe in 9,000 years, a person will live as long as the heaven and the earth, and the sun and the moon will have the same age. And this painting "Peach Peach Offers Longevity"
"Picture", stay and prolong life.
Zhao Keran decided on the designs on both sides after careful consideration. In fact, his grandmother and late grandfather were both very good to him. Especially his late grandfather, when he was young, he actually looked like his grandmother.
, However, later, under Zhao Keren's constant suppression, he became inferior and timid, so he looked increasingly different from his grandmother. Regardless of U Guo, his grandfather still loved him very much. His favorite thing during his lifetime was collecting.
Some antique calligraphy and paintings were collected. Later, my grandfather passed away, and most of the antique calligraphy and paintings were left to me.
The "Spring Song and Walking on the Snow" that was previously borrowed by Zhao Keren is one of them. That picture was painted by the late contemporary famous artist Wu Zhouzi. The painting depicts tourists walking on the snow in late winter and early spring.
Snow, a scene of playing in the countryside. This picture is very precious. She was deceived by Zhao Keren in her previous life. Fortunately, she was careful this time. She still remembered that in her previous life, Zhao Keren deceived her
After "Spring Song Walking on the Snow", many good things were deceived from me. In my previous life, I was stupid and was deceived. In this life, I will definitely keep everything my grandfather left me.
In fact, in addition to this screen, Zhao Keran also specially prepared another gift for her grandmother. However, she would never let anyone know about that gift before the day it came out. Thinking of that gift
, Zhao Keran couldn't help but laugh.
While Zhao Keran was seriously embroidering the screen, Long'er walked into the pavilion, bowed and said to Zhao Keran,
"Eldest Miss, Second Miss is here and is waiting outside!"
Zhao Keren is here! After Zhao Keran heard the news, he couldn't help but frowned. Why did Zhao Keren come at this time?
"Go ask her in!"
While talking, Zhao Keran placed the embroidery on the stone table.
Soon, Zhao Keren walked in. Zhao Keran looked up and saw that Zhao Keren was wearing a goose-yellow gauze skirt today. The skirt was flowing and the sleeves were flying. Every move she made was elegant. Her skin was like snow, and her eyebrows were like
She has eyes like stars, a tall nose, a mouth like a cherry, and a thin layer of Dai on her face. Her goose-yellow clothes add a bit of charm to her.
Looking at Zhao Keren who came here, even if Zhao Keran didn't like her, he had to admit that Zhao Keren was indeed naturally beautiful. No wonder she became one of the "four beauties" in the capital. Even she had to be impressed.
To her beauty.13acv.
Thinking of this, Zhao Keran couldn't help but laugh at himself. She was like this in her previous life, wasn't she? Just because Zhao Keren was so beautiful and so good to her. At that time, she lacked the care of her parents, so as long as Zhao Keren was a couple
After showing her kindness, she believed her unconditionally, told her everything, and never refused her request. In the end, she even lost her own life. However, I will never do it in this life.
She was so stupid. Everything she had experienced in her previous life, she would repay to Zhao Keren in this life. A firm light flashed in Zhao Keran's eyes.
"Sister, why do you look so ugly!" Before he came in, Zhao Keren had already noticed that Zhao Keran's complexion seemed not to be well, and quickly asked pretending to be concerned, "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want to call a doctor?
Take a look?" Chen Ke was a disciple last night.
Zhao Keran quickly shook off the thoughts in his mind, then stood up and raised a smile, "I'm fine, but I just didn't sleep well, so my face doesn't look good."
"Sister, you'd better sit down first!" Zhao Keren helped Zhao Keran sit down, and then sat down opposite Zhao Keran.
"Long'er, go make another cup of tea. Also, go to the kitchen to get some egg crisps. The second lady likes to eat them!" Zhao Keran ordered.
After Long'er accepted the order, she left quickly. Only two sisters, Zhao Keran and Zhao Keren, were left in the pavilion.
After Zhao Keran looked at Zhao Keren, he asked strangely, "Keren, why didn't you see Xianyun today? Isn't she by your side every day?"
Zhao Keren smiled and replied, "I have something for her to do, so I'm not here."
"So that's it!" Zhao Keran asked seemingly casually, "What on earth is it? Your maid is actually asked to do it in person. It seems like it's really not a trivial matter!"
Zhao Keren frowned, and a dark light quickly flashed in his eyes, "What's the big deal? I just wanted to eat Wangyuelou's pastries, so I asked Xianyun to buy them."
Although the dark light in Zhao Keren's eyes only flashed by, Zhao Keran still noticed it. It seemed that things were not that simple, and he had to pay more attention.
Although he was thinking this in his heart, Zhao Keran's face was still full of smile, and there was nothing strange about it.
"By the way, sister, what were you thinking about just now!" Zhao Keren quickly changed the subject, "I saw that you seemed to be worried about something just now, right?"
Zhao Keran thought for a while and said, "My sister is really observant! In fact, I just thought of Ling'er."
Hearing Ling'er's name, Zhao Keren's face showed a hint of uneasiness, "Really?"
As if Zhao Keran didn't notice Zhao Keren's unnaturalness, he continued, "Well, no matter how you say it, Ling'er grew up with me. However, I really didn't expect that Ling'er would be so bold.
She even dared to steal the gift given by the emperor and even sold it off. Even if I intend to let her go, there is nothing I can do!"
Zhao Keren quickly echoed, "Yes! Ling'er deserves to die. Sister, don't think too much about it."
Zhao Keran sighed again, "Yes, that's her life! Who told her to be so greedy?"
"Yes, sister, please stop thinking about it." Zhao Keren thought for a while and asked tentatively, "Sister, let me ask you, has Ling'er said anything strange to you before?
"
Hearing Zhao Keran mention Ling'er, Zhao Keren quickly seized the opportunity and asked more questions. She was afraid that Ling'er would tell her story before she was alive.
Zhao Keran naturally knew what Zhao Keren wanted to ask. She sneered in her heart, but put on a puzzled expression on her face, "What is my sister talking about? Does my sister think there is something wrong with Ling'er?"
Did you tell me?"
"No, there's nothing wrong!" Zhao Keren quickly denied, "Ling'er and I are not familiar with each other, how could we possibly know!"
After hearing what Zhao Keren said, Zhao Keran said with a look of disappointment, "I thought, sister, you knew something, so you came here to tell me!"
Zhao Keren laughed quickly and said, "How can this be possible? Actually, I came here today just because I have something to ask my sister."
Hearing Zhao Keren's words, Zhao Keran knew that Zhao Keren was about to get to the point, so he smiled and said, "Sister, if you have anything to say, just tell me! Sister, I will definitely tell you."
Zhao Keren smiled and shook his head, "Actually, it's not a big deal. I just want to ask, sister, my grandmother's birthday is coming soon. What birthday gift are you going to give her?"
"So that's what happened!" Zhao Keran replied with a smile, "Actually, it's nothing. I don't have anything to give as a gift. I just plan to embroider a screen and give it to my grandmother."
"Screen, huh?"
Zhao Keren saw the embroidery on the stone table, "Is this the one?"
So, Zhao Keren picked up the embroidery and looked at it, "Sister, what you are embroidering is a crane to celebrate your birthday, right?"
Zhao Keren only saw the pattern on the upward side, and she had no idea that there was a pattern on the other side. Now, they have not learned embroidery from Aunt Jin, so Zhao Keren did not expect that Zhao Keran could actually do both.
This embroidery method is used to embroider one side, so the other side is not noticed.
Looking at the gifts carefully prepared by Zhao Keran, Zhao Keren couldn't help but laugh in her heart, she was really petty. However, there was an expression of appreciation on her face, "Sister, you are really thoughtful!"
Zhao Keran naturally noticed the flash of disdain on Zhao Keren's face. It seemed that Zhao Keren looked down upon his gift! However, he would not remind her that this was a double-sided embroidery.
. She can tell Zhao Keren about this embroidery, but the other gift will not be revealed until the day of her grandmother’s birthday. I hope Zhao Keren will not be too surprised by then.
"So, sister, what birthday gift are you planning to give?" Zhao Keran asked.
Zhao Keren smiled and shook his head, "I haven't thought of it yet! I don't know what to give as a gift. Grandma is lacking everything. It's really hard to imagine!"
Zhao Keren was also thinking about what gifts to give. After all, he was now Xi Ran's fiancée. It was his first time attending a banquet in this capacity, and he must not be careless. He could only do better this time.
He must let Xi Ran and the people in the Zhongyi Hou Mansion know that he is definitely much better than Zhao Keran.
A cunning light flashed in Zhao Keran's eyes, "Don't worry, sister. Last time at Mrs. Lin's birthday party, wasn't the gift that my sister gave me very popular with the old lady? I believe that this time, the gift that my sister gave me will be great.
Grandma will also like it very much.”
When Zhao Keran mentioned what happened to Mrs. Lin last time, Zhao Keren's face became very unnatural. Of course she knew how much Aunt Lin liked the last gift. If it weren't for the "Spring Song in the Snow Picture"
If so, how could I have won Aunt Lin's favor so quickly? However, when I think about it, I really feel unwilling to do so. Obviously I and Zhao Keran are both granddaughters of my grandfather, but my grandfather left so many antique calligraphy and paintings to Zhao Keran.
No. Just like last time, if the "Spring Song Walking in the Snow" was mine, then I wouldn't have had to go to such trouble to deceive it from Zhao Keran last time. Now I still have to worry about being discovered by Zhao Keran every day.
However, she had already thought about it. If Zhao Keran found out, she would insist that Ling'er took it by mistake. Anyway, the painting has been given to Aunt Lin now. Zhao Keran would not go to Aunt Lin to get it back!
"Sister, sister." Zhao Keran saw that Zhao Keren was completely immersed in his own thoughts and called out quickly.
"Oh, sister, what's wrong?" Hearing Zhao Keran's call, Zhao Keren woke up as if from a dream.
Zhao Keran shook his head in a funny way and looked at Zhao Keren dotingly, "You're still asking me! I'm going to ask you! What are you thinking about? You're so absorbed in your thoughts."
Although the expression on Zhao Keran's face is doting, if you look carefully, you can find that in the depths of Zhao Keran's eyes, there is a cold light that is different from his expression!
Zhao Keren quickly concealed his inner thoughts, "Sister, what are you talking about! I was so lost in thought. I was just thinking about what birthday gift to give to my grandmother."
After Zhao Keran thought for a while, he said casually, "Actually, I have considered something else, but unfortunately it was too expensive, so I had to settle for the next best thing and embroider a screen to give to my grandmother.
"
After hearing Zhao Keran's words, Zhao Keren's eyes lit up and he quickly urged, "What on earth is it! Tell me quickly!"
Zhao Keran shook his head and said in a very embarrassed tone, "Sister, you probably want to buy it! That thing is really too expensive."
Zhao Keren still pestered Zhao Keran and asked her to tell her, "Sister, just tell me! I will think about it carefully and will never do anything wrong. If it is too expensive, then I will just go and have a look."
."
Zhao Keran looked embarrassed, "Okay then! In fact, there is a new white jade Guanyin statue in Zhenbaozhai. It is all white and flawless, and the Guanyin statue is carved lifelike. It is a rare treasure. However, the price is very high."
After listening to Zhao Keran's words, Zhao Keren's eyes lit up.
"Keren, you don't want to buy it, do you?" Zhao Keran quickly advised, "It's too expensive, and there's that-"
Zhao Keran didn't say any more. Seeing Zhao Keran's hesitant expression, Zhao Keren quickly asked, "What else is there!"
Zhao Keran thought for a while and said, "I heard that cousin Yimiao is also planning to buy this as a birthday gift!"
"What, cousin Yimiao is going to buy this!" Zhao Keren's eyes lit up even more. "
"Yes!" Zhao Keran nodded, "So, you'd better not think about it.
After hearing what Zhao Keran said, Zhao Keren not only did not give up the idea of buying the White Jade Guanyin, but became even more determined. Since cousin Yimiao also wants to buy it, it means that it is really a rare treasure. Also, all along,
Cousin Yimiao is always on top of him. Qin Yimiao is the eldest lady of the Duke's Palace. She is already a head above him in the family world. Moreover, she is also one of the "four beauties" in the capital, but the most important thing is
Yes, she is still the most talented woman in the capital. This time, she must buy this Guanyin statue. She must beat Qin Yimiao once. Thinking of this, Zhao Keren secretly made up his mind.
