Chapter 73 Rags

"Auntie has seen my mother's embroidery." In Gu Xin's memory, Gu Xinniang had never embroidered anything, just sewed some clothes.

"My aunt has not only seen her, but your mother also gives her one. You can wait for her to give her to you." Aunt Li said

Aunt Li took out a wooden box from the inner room. It looked very precious. She opened the wooden box and wrapped it in a piece of cotton cloth. Aunt Li carefully opened the cotton cloth to take out the embroidery inside.

The embroidery is opened at any time, and Gu Xin can see the whole picture. This is a picture of peony. The peony embroidery is the same as the real one, and there seems to be dew drops on it. Gu Xin has seen painters' paintings take the fake as real, but he didn't expect that the embroidered flowers can be too.

"Is the woman on this embroidery sister?" Alan suddenly spoke when she stood opposite Gu Xin and said.

"What woman, Alan has no women here." Gu Xin handed the embroidery to Alan

"There is obviously a background." Alan turned the embroidery over and said,

When Gu Xin saw that there was another painting on his back, a woman in purple was playing the piano from the flowers. The breeze blew, and the woman's hair rose with the wind, and the sound of the piano was flying, as if a woman could walk out from it from any time. Such embroidery is legendary.

Gu Xin couldn't understand why his mother gave such a good embroidery to Aunt Gu. Although Gu Xin didn't know about embroidery, this embroidery really shocked Gu Xin.

The appearance of the woman in the embroidery is seventy-sixth-similar to Gu Xin. I don’t know who the woman in the painting is, so I’m sure she is not Gu Xinniang. Forget it and let’s talk about it later.

"You put this embroidery piece of auntie, and no one will show it in the future." Gu Xin said very seriously

"My aunt remembered that your mother also said she would not let others see it. Today I saw you and remembered this embroidery," Aunt Li said with her work.

"Auntie, we're going to the county. If you have time to go to my house, my child is so lively." Gu Xin said.

"I'll leave now. I won't be able to take the plums to eat on the road." Aunt Li packed the plums in a step bag and handed them to Gu Xin and said, "

"Thank you, aunt" Gu Xin took Li Zi and said

Aunt Li watched Gu Xin ride in the ox cart and walked away until she couldn't see it. In Gu Xin's memory, Aunt Li loved Gu Xin very much, the kind of pain she felt as if she was a child.

The ox cart was swaying and finally arrived in the town. Uncle Li knew that Gu Xin was going to Jinxiu Pavilion, so he parked the ox cart at the entrance of Jinxiu Pavilion.

Alan bought a lot of embroidery threads and received two more embroidery pieces for screens. When Gu Xin paid, Alan felt a little embarrassed and said that she would pay it back to her after the embroidery pieces were sold. Gu Xin patted Alan on the shoulder and said, "It's all a family, why don't you pay too much?"

Alan didn't expect that someone would love her, and nodded with red eyes.

When Gu Xin was visiting Jinxiu, the waiter threw the scraps of clothes into a large bamboo basket on the ground.

"How do you deal with some cut fabrics, please?" Gu Xin asked.

"The waste of girls is too small and costs ten cents a basket, and they are sold to those women for shoes and soles."

"Little brother, you still have a few baskets here, I want them all." Gu Xin said.

"The girl wants it, and there are five baskets behind it. I'll move it to the backyard." After the waiter said that, he ran to the backyard, as if he was afraid that Gu Xin would not buy it.

Gu Xin paid fifty copper coins, and the waiter happily took the copper coins. The money belonged to him. The boss's wife was worried about where to throw the rags. Although several peasant women bought the soles of their shoes at home, they couldn't buy much, but they didn't expect it to be sold this time.

"My second brother will keep these rags for me in the future. When will you save five baskets?" Gu Xin said.

"This is what we save in a month, and it's enough for girls to come once a month." said the second brother.
