Chapter 68 Learning Double-sided Embroidery

I didn’t expect that there was actually someone in their general’s mansion who could do double-sided embroidery.

I heard that Grandma Zhen’s mother was a famous embroiderer, and her double-sided embroidery skills were all learned from her mother. However, she came to the General’s Mansion later because something happened at home.

"Madam, I heard that Butler Quan said that you want to learn double-sided embroidery?"

"Yes." Rong Jingru glanced at Aunt Zhen. She could tell what she was thinking at a glance.

It’s not that the original owner’s status is not high, but because of a marriage decree, she became the general’s wife in Zhenbei General’s Mansion.

"Madam, can you embroider this picture for me to see?" Aunt Zhen wanted to test her wife's embroidery skills.

"Okay." Rong Jingru smiled and nodded, then turned around and ordered the maid to take out her embroidery thread and embroidery frame.

After Rong Jingru picked up the embroidery needle, her expression immediately became focused, and the thread seemed to be alive in her hand. The speed of the flowing water made Grandma Zhen dare not blink, for fear that she would miss something.

Especially the stitching is so fine that even the willow leaves can be embroidered very neatly, making it look as if the willow tree is alive.

Not long after, a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water appeared in front of everyone.

"Aunt Zhen, please give me some advice?" Rong Jingru was very confident in her embroidery skills. After all, this was awarded to her by the system.

Although Grandma Zhen appeared calm on the surface, she was almost exhausted in her heart. It was because her wife's embroidery skills were so good that she could not find any problems in the embroidery.

Originally, she had heard that her wife was required to learn double-sided embroidery, but she was still a little hesitant. After all, she had heard that her wife was born in a small family, her parents were absent, and she had been staying at her uncle's house. If the emperor hadn't suddenly granted her a marriage,

It is impossible for Rong Jingru to become the general's wife.

However, reality slapped her in the face, forcing her to re-examine Madam, because Madam's skillful embroidery skills left her with nothing to teach her except how to embroider double-sided embroidery.

"Madam, your embroidery is so good that I even feel ashamed of myself." Aunt Zhen began to flatter her wife.

"How can my little skills be compared with those of Aunt Zhen? After all, you have a master who taught me." Rong Jingru replied in an even tone. She seemed a little too modest, but the meaning behind her words made Aunt Zhen confused.

His face looked a little ugly.

But she also knew that it was her attitude just now that angered Madam, and that was why Madam said this.

"Chunyue, serve tea to Aunt Zhen." Seeing that it was almost done, Rong Jingru turned around and ordered the maid. After all, she wanted to learn how to embroider double-sided embroidery from her.

"Madam, you're welcome. I will try my best to teach you." Aunt Zhen took the tea and spoke in a tone that was completely different from before.

Aunt Zhen doesn't dare to touch Qiao now, because in terms of embroidery itself, Madam is actually slightly better than her, and she just relies on her ability to embroider on both sides.

Rong Jingru nodded with satisfaction, feeling very satisfied with Grandma Zhen's attitude towards understanding current affairs, and it was not in vain for her to show off her embroidery skills.

"Now, old slave, let me tell you about this double-sided embroidery. It includes not only ordinary double-sided embroidery, but also double-sided embroidery with different colors and double-sided embroidery with three different colors. It's a pity, old slave, I only know ordinary double-sided embroidery.

For face embroidery, I have only heard of the latter two.”

Although Rong Jingru felt a little regretful, she did not force it.

"Then please trouble Aunt Zhen and give me the ordinary double-sided embroidery technique. I will definitely learn it hard." Because Rong Jingru believes that as long as she learns it seriously, she will definitely benefit a lot.z.br

Next, Grandma Zhen began to show her the art of double-sided embroidery, but due to time constraints, she only embroidered a simple flower.

But even this simple flower made Rong Jingru fall in love with it, because the double-sided embroidery gives people a more three-dimensional feeling.

"Let me tell you again, the stitches of this double-sided embroidery must be dense enough, and more importantly, you must pay special attention when cutting the tail thread." Grandma Zhen said, pointing with her finger.

"Madam, why don't you embroider as I did now and embroider it with double-sided embroidery?

"Times." Aunt Zhen said warmly.

Rong Jingru picked up the embroidery needle and began to embroider according to Grandma Zhen's pattern. Because it was her first time to embroider with double-sided embroidery, her movements were much slower than usual.

Rong Jingru found that she paid too much attention to the art of double-sided embroidery and ignored the essence. As a result, the embroidered things were not as beautiful as the original embroidery, which made her slightly embarrassed.

"It's okay, madam. As long as you pay more attention when you embroider things, I believe that madam will embroider better next time."

"You will have to worry more about it in the next period of time." Rong Jingru discovered that it is not easy to embroider something well with double-sided embroidery. There are many details in it that she had ignored before.

"But don't panic, madam. When you use double-sided embroidery for the first time, you may find that the front is nearly perfect, but the back is full of flaws. As long as you practice persistently, you can achieve an almost flawless state on the front and back." Aunt Zhen

Explained patiently.

Rong Jingru understands this truth, after all, haste makes waste.

"I'd like to lend you some good words."

Grandma Zhen thought that she might have to waste more words, but she didn't expect that Madam could listen to what she just said when she was so good at embroidery. She had to admire her.

Aunt Zhen found that Madam did not have the condescending attitude of other ladies in the house. Instead, she was very easy to get along with. The premise was that she should also treat others sincerely.

Rong Jingru got rid of her distracting thoughts and started embroidering again. This time she felt that her hands were much smoother. Although the embroidered items were not up to the level of Grandma Zhen, her embroidery skills were not insulted.

"Madam, I didn't expect that you could already embroider such a good pattern through double-sided embroidery after only two embroidery attempts." Grandma Zhen secretly admired her in her heart.

"It's much worse than what Aunt Zhen embroidered." Although Rong Jingru was happy in her heart, she still said modestly.

After all, Grandma Zhen has learned double-sided embroidery from her mother since she was a child. Her ability to achieve such good embroidery skills is inseparable from her own hard work.

However, Rong Jingru believes in herself that as long as she works hard, she can achieve it.

"Old slave believes that as long as madam practices diligently, maybe the patterns embroidered by madam will be better than old slave's." Aunt Zhen admired Rong Jingru's understanding in her heart. She just said it simply, she

can reach the current level.

Judging from the current situation, the distance between the young and the old should not be too far, which made Grandma Zhen realize that she almost had nothing to teach her.

Rong Jingru didn't know what Aunt Zhen was thinking, but even if she knew, she wouldn't bother her. After all, when she is immersed in embroidery, everything around her will be isolated by her consciousness.

"I also believe I will." Rong Jingru showed a confident smile, which made Grandma Zhen couldn't help but be infected.

Originally, Rong Jingru thought she was spending her time writing storybooks, learning double-sided embroidery, and studying acupuncture. Unexpectedly, Tinker Bell, who had disappeared as an adult, suddenly appeared next to her and kept calling "Meow Meow".

.

"Tinker Bell, do you want me to come with you?"

The owner of "Meow Meow" is quite smart. If you don't hurry up, it will find something good and think of her immediately.

"Then I'll put down the thread and put the book down, and go with you, but we have to call Wushuang over." Although Rong Jingru wanted to hurry up, after all, she also wanted to know why Tinkerbell must be so anxious to call her.

She discovered something, but her body knew it, so she decided to be careful.

Although Tinker Bell wanted to hurry up, his master's words made sense, so he had to wait a little longer, hoping that Jin Wushuang could hurry up.

Cuihong and Chunyue saw Rong Jingru going out of the small courtyard. Although Jin Wushuang was by their side, they were still a little worried.

"Madam, do you want us two to follow you?"

Rong Jingru thought for a moment and nodded directly.

Rong Jingru and the other four followed Tinker Bell around the huge general's mansion.

"Jingru, where are we going?" Jin Wushuang was a little curious.

Cuihong and Chunyue also looked at her.

"To be honest, I don't know where we are going right now.

"Where." Rong Jingru roughly told them about Tinker Bell's situation.

"Then let's follow it for a while. If it's still aimless, I think it's better for us to go back home. After all, you are pregnant now. Although you need moderate exercise, you can't go on blindly like this." Jin

Wushuang said a little worried.

"I think we should be almost at our destination." Although Rong Jingru looked at the three of them, she kept looking at Tinkerbell from the corner of her eye, so Tinkerbell's reaction was noticed by her immediately, otherwise she would also

Wouldn't say that.

"Really? I'm a little curious, Jingru, how did you know?" Jin Wushuang was stunned by Tinker Bell today, and now his brain is not clear.

"You three will know in a minute." Rong Jingru decided to make a riddle first, but it would take a lot of effort to explain it.

Unexpectedly, not long after Rong Jingru finished speaking, she saw Tinkerbell, who was leading the way, suddenly stop near the rockery.

Then he tapped the ground lightly with his front paws, and everyone only heard a sound, and a crack was exposed in the rockery.

"Chunyue, does the General's Mansion actually have this here?" Rong Jingru looked at Chunyue, who had been in the General's Mansion.

"I don't think I remember that." Chunyue thought for a while and finally shook her head.

"Madam, why don't you ask Uncle Quan or the general, maybe they can know something?" Chun Yue suggested.

Tinkerbell didn't hear the footsteps behind her, so she turned around and found Rong Jingru and others were stopping there chatting about something, so she had to quickly turn back.

"In this case, Chunyue, go find the general. If the general is not at the house at this time, go to Uncle Quan and tell her what we found." Rong Jingru thought for a while and immediately told Chunyue.

"As for the others, let's go in directly with Tinkerbell." Because she felt that since Tinkerbell would be fine if she went in, the safety of the rest of them should be guaranteed.

"Jingru, you go in the middle, I'm in front, Cuihong, you keep an eye on her at the end." Jin Wushuang blew the fire stick and took the lead to step forward.

"Miss, let me help you."

In order not to worry Cuihong, Rong Jingru still stretched out her hand.

"It's a bit steep here, you two, be careful." Jin Wushuang suddenly reminded.

"We are watching, so you should pay more attention to yourself." Rong Jingru found that her eyesight was much better than in her previous life, especially recently.

Originally, she wanted to ask Mengmeng what was going on, but it seemed inconvenient to communicate at this point, so she stopped thinking for the time being.

However, the movements of Cuihong's hands tightened, as if she was afraid that her young lady would fall.

Rong Jingru gently patted the back of Cuihong's hand, and then she relaxed her hand slightly.

The three of them had not walked for long when they heard a sound. The road that was supposed to go straight turned into a stone staircase and they had to go down.

However, this sudden change shocked Cuihong.

"Miss, what's going on?"
