"Oh? You also have embroidery? "Madam Liu did not mean to look down on Ye Shaohua.
She only asked this because she felt that Ye Shaohua's bearing did not seem like an embroidery mother at all.
When she saw the embroidery in the hands of the maid behind Ye Shaohua, she realized that Ye Shaohua was not joking, but she was even more surprised.
She did not expect the small Jingzhou to have such a capable person.
Although most women these days could do needlework, it was not possible to become an embroidery mother with ordinary skills.
"Miss, can you show me your embroidery?" Madam Liu looked at Ye Shaohua gently.
Ye Shaohua glanced at Yu Xiao.
Yu Xiao immediately understood her meaning and walked past the embroidery mothers to Madam Liu's side. Together with Madam Liu's maid, they unfolded the embroidery.
Madam Liu's brocade was embroidered by Ye Qingqing at a great cost. It was also Ye Qingqing's best embroidery.
She used bright colors and the brocade was glossy and beautiful. She used the traditional embroidery method commonly used in Jiangling, so the structure was very rigorous. At first glance, the butterflies and flowers were lifelike and had a very realistic style.
Even if the embroidery mothers present were originally not convinced by Ye Qingqing's reputation, they felt that she deserved her reputation after seeing her embroidery.
They had thought that such embroidery was already very rare, but when Yu Xiao unfolded Ye Shaohua's embroidery, they finally understood what was called wonderful workmanship and what was called stunning.
Ye Shaohua's show was the gradual change of color of the peony and the phoenix tail picture. The main flower of the peony was Caixiu. This method, from shallow to deep, changed the color of a peony petal from the inside to the outside very obviously. The light-colored part of the flower was also specially embroidered. A flower from the outline to the color used used no less than 20 kinds of stitches.
She had been very sensitive to color ever since she came to this world.
Because of this, the color changes that the embroidery mothers usually paid attention to were carefully outlined by her. She used nine different colors from light to dark on a single petal.
Especially the crystal clear dewdrop on the petal.
Under the outline of the white to dark color, it was reflected in people's eyes. The people in the cloth almost reached out to touch it to see if it was accidentally dripping water or embroidery.
Compared to the monotonous flowers in Ye Qingqing's "Hundred Butterflies Flying Through Flowers" painting, her peonies that could attract butterflies were very special.
Only then did the embroidery maids realize that colors could be used in this way, and a flower could be embroidered in its original form.
What's more ingenious is the phoenix tail swept by the peony edge. Ye Shaohua used Su embroidery.
It's said to be a phoenix tail, but it should be a few feathers surrounding the peony. It's not like ordinary feathers. Ye Shaohua's feathers are the kind of fluff that can be seen clearly. Each feather is breathable and long, from light to dark color. She uses a wooden comb to show it, as if she can touch the soft and light feathers as soon as she reaches out.
It was like the feathers of a phoenix that had accidentally fallen into a bush of flowers.
Peonies were too luxurious and gorgeous.
If an ordinary person were to wear a peony pattern dress, they wouldn't be able to hold on, but this simple and elegant feather was able to disperse the rich and colorful.
It reflected the "color harmony" of Su embroidery more and more.
It was also the first time for Yu Xiao to see Ye Shaohua's embroidery. She couldn't help but touch the dew.
After confirming that it was embroidered, she stood there in a daze.
"What a peony pattern." Just when everyone was immersed in this embroidery, a deep male voice sounded, "This official has seen Great Scholar Mu's paintings in the capital, but it was not as lifelike as this embroidery. Jiangling is indeed full of talents!"
This voice brought everyone back to their senses from the embroidery.
Meng Yanqiu was the first to call out, "Lord Liu."
The people in the courtyard also reacted. This should be Imperial Inspector Liu himself.
Madam Liu looked at Ye Shaohua in surprise, hesitated for a moment, then asked, "If I'm not wrong, this should be mermaid silk right?"
She touched the surface of the embroidery, but was afraid of dirtying it, so she quickly put her hand down.
But she already had an idea.
No matter how you looked at it, Ye Shaohua's brocade surpassed Ye Qingqing's. This was found for Concubine De, and it was better to have nothing than to have something shoddy. In the end, she naturally chose Ye Shaohua's peony embroidery.
Madam Liu dismissed the rest of the embroidery maids, leaving only Ye Shaohua.
The others who left the residence were all inquiring about Ye Shaohua's background.
Ye Shaohua's embroidery was chosen by Madam Liu, and under the publicity of the group of embroidery maids, it more or less gained a reputation. Madam Liu really felt that Ye Shaohua's embroidery skills were superb, and wanted her to make a set of clothes.
This should be the first business deal. After thinking for a while, Ye Shaohua agreed.
When Ye Qingqing saw Ye Shaohua appear, she did not take it to heart at all. She even shook her head helplessly when Ye Shaohua was about to take out the embroidery, but she did not expect Ye Shaohua to really take out embroidery that was not inferior to hers.
The change in her expression was very obvious.
She just stared blankly at the embroidery, and only reacted when the servant girl called her.
Meng Yanqiu also did not expect Ye Shaohua to really take out the embroidery. The embroidery just now had indeed amazed him, but he still comforted Ye Qingqing, "You have been using needles since you were three years old, so you have a deep foundation. What you lack is those lost skills. She has only been using needles for a short time, so it's hard to say how many stitches she has embroidered on this embroidery. "
Meng Yanqiu's tone was somewhat disapproving.
In fact, he was also puzzled in his heart. This was completely different from what he had experienced in his previous life.
In his previous life, Ye Shaohua had no interest in embroidery, and her only interest was to play with knives and spears. In the end, Inspector Liu still used Ye Qingqing's embroidery, but in this life, how could Ye Shaohua take out such embroidery?
Meng Yanqiu's heart surged.
But in any case, he still restrained himself. He did not want to provoke Ye Shaohua in this life.
Right now, there was another important thing to do.
After the Meng family knew Meng Yanqiu's intentions, they began to discuss with Ye De about Ye Qingqing and Ye Qingqing's marriage.
"This is the only embroidery skill book that the Ye family had left behind." Seeing Ye Qingqing's disappointed look, Meng Yanqiu felt that it was better not to tease her. The manservant beside him took a book from somewhere. "The Ye family once had the number one embroidery mother in Damu Kingdom. With this embroidery skill book, you will definitely become the number one embroidery mother in Damu Kingdom. In the future, the Ye family will rely on you alone."
Meng Yanqiu still remembered that in his previous life, Ye Qingqing had told him that Ye Qingqing had spent less than a month to understand this embroidery skill book, and had even taught it to Ye Shaohua.
He did not expect that Ye Shaohua would reveal the acupuncture technique to the Hu people, but he did not expect that it would lead to disaster.
He remembered that Ye Qingqing had vaguely said that the main core of the Ye family's acupuncture technique was the spiral.
In this life, he believed that with his guidance, Ye Qingqing would be able to understand it in less than a month.
