Chapter 770: Chapter 775: Girl in Spring_1
After lunch, Embroidery Lady sneakily pulled Qiao Duo’er into her own boudoir.
"Sister Duo’er, I want to ask you for a favor," Embroidery Lady said awkwardly.
Now she was almost trapped in Duo Meifang all day, and with all sorts of skincare products, her complexion had greatly improved.
That was a trouble too, like getting flushed at the slightest thing.
Qiao Duo’er was a bit surprised, she hadn’t expected the normally straightforward Embroidery Lady to be so bashful.
Could this be what they call a young girl’s spring feelings?
Qiao Duo’er teased, "Come on, tell me which family’s young master has charmed our Embroidery Lady."
"Stop it!" Embroidery Lady stomped her foot. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
He wasn’t some young master but just a poor scholar!
Qiao Duo’er immediately stopped smiling, "I promise I won’t laugh anymore, just tell me what you need help with."
"I... You must promise not to tell anyone," Embroidery Lady’s voice grew even quieter.
Love really was a strange thing, she used to dislike it when girls spoke in such a soft and gentle voice, but now when it came to this matter, she had turned into just that.
Ugh... she wanted to beat herself up!
Qiao Duo’er seriously promised to comply with Embroidery Lady’s request; it was Embroidery Lady’s secret, after all.
Taking a deep breath, Embroidery Lady finally took out a pouch from her bosom.
After hesitating for an eternity, she finally steeled herself and said, "Help me deliver this to Zhang Ziwen."
Qiao Duo’er blinked, "You mean Zhang Ziwen?"
The kid was a good child, but she always felt that the two of them together were a bit of an odd couple.
Embroidery Lady nodded lightly, yes, that bookworm from the Tofu Family, Zhang Ziwen, who always blushed whenever he spoke to a girl.
"I thought I would like a tall and hearty man with strength, but somehow I ended up fancying a scholar with not enough strength to truss a chicken," Embroidery Lady said, downcast.
Two months ago, she never would have thought she would have anything to do with a frail scholar.
It all started two months ago, when she was captivated by Zhang Ziwen’s warm smile, and from there, things spiraled out of control.
Today, her mother urged her again to go see potential suitors, and she feared she would be confusedly married off, so she made this bold decision.
She wanted Qiao Duo’er to help her test Zhang Ziwen’s feelings—if he was willing, she would marry him; if he wasn’t, she would marry him nonetheless.
Anyway, Embroidery Lady was stubborn when it came to beliefs, and once she set her mind on someone, she wouldn’t change it.
"You should follow your own heart when it comes to love, but you also can’t force it."
Qiao Duo’er took the pouch; she had been on the verge of imparting life wisdom, but she inadvertently laughed.
Cough cough... She could see that Embroidery Lady had made a great effort, but the result... was a bit regrettable.
Embroidery Lady’s embroidered mandarin ducks looked like ducks attempting to fly in the sky.
"I’ve been learning for two months now, but I’m just not cut out for this line of work; my hands are nearly stung into a beehive," Embroidery Lady complained with a pout.
Now she deeply regretted not listening to her mother’s advice to learn embroidery properly.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be suffering like this now.
Qiao Duo’er patted Embroidery Lady’s shoulder, "The most important thing is the thought behind it, and to be serious about your work. In the future, you should hire an Embroidery Lady."
She couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Zhang Ziwen, for relying on Embroidery Lady’s crafts to improve would take a next lifetime; specialization is important, and it wasn’t Embroidery Lady’s fault.
"Don’t worry!"
Embroidery Lady nodded vigorously; she had actually planned this for a long time.
As long as she didn’t have to touch a needle, she was willing to do anything else!
