The officers and soldiers of the City Defense Department were really meticulous. They escorted Du Juan all the way to the Jinghuafang Archway. They did not go in. They waited until Du Juan went in and that was the end of the matter. When Du Juan looked back, the officers and soldiers had already left. During the day
The archway and the main hall are very close to each other, but now at midnight, there is not even a single person here. In the memory of this place, Du Juan knows nothing.
"You really shouldn't have come out." Du Juan murmured to herself and walked forward lightly. There were dozens of white jade steps in front of the palace door. The moonlight was thick tonight, and the silver-white moonlight spread on the steps, making the entire steps look like
Like a huge mirror, she felt frightened when she walked up to it. Step by step, when Du Juan looked up again, she saw the door plaque of Jinghuafang so clearly. The door of the palace was slightly closed, and through the gap, she could see the deepest candlelight, a tall
The figure sways in front of the candlelight.
I only heard the voice inside, "Since you're back, come in!" Du Juan heard this voice, sonorous and powerful, full of arrogance, and she was almost the aunt in charge. She pushed the palace door open and made a harsh sound.
, I am afraid that it has already disturbed the tranquility of the night. As soon as I entered the hall, there were exquisite tables on both sides. Under the candlelight, there were rolls of thread, silk cloth and shiny knives and scissors placed on the tables. Such tables
There are at least dozens of them in the main hall. This is where the embroiderers work. The one that emits light is on the three-story high platform in the middle of the hall. The glazed lamps and candles are brightly lit, and the candles are swaying left and right. Du Juan starts to feel nervous.
.
"Niang Du Xiu! You are so brave. You dare to leave Jinghuafang without permission when the silk sculpture competition is about to take place. Now that you have passed the time, what do you think of this place?"
With this tough attitude, she probably wouldn't get any good results if she took it hard, but it's not her character to be subdued. Now that she has promised her, she can't just offend the aunt in charge. She still needs to settle down in Jinghuafang.
Du Juan bowed and said, "It's my fault to go back to my aunt, because I have been working in the workshop recently, with very little rest and a lot of fatigue. I went to relax outside the workshop this morning, so that I can work diligently and diligently in the workshop.
"
The aunt in charge came down, and Du Juan took a closer look at her face. It was indeed a sinister look, with a fierce look on her face. Du Juan quickly lowered her head. The aunt in charge walked around Du Juan and said slowly, "According to what you said, Fang
The inside is not as good as the outside, right? Do you think working inside the workshop is boring? You go outside the workshop to relax without permission? If you think you are prevaricating, I will believe you!"
"Aunt, what my little girl said is true. There is absolutely no lie." Everyone is right. This aunt in charge is indeed difficult to deal with. She is very wary and suspicious of almost everyone. No wonder the people in the shop are
The embroiderers are so afraid of her.
"False words?" the aunt in charge said confidently, "Ms. Du Xiu, you really think that I don't know the reason. Let me ask you, who is the little beggar outside the square this morning, and why did you follow her? You kept saying it over and over again.
The reason for going outside is to relax, but how do you explain it to her?"
It seems that someone must have informed the aunt in charge of this matter, but it is also understandable. With the aunt in charge of being so majestic, the other embroiderers must have told the matter to protect themselves and not be punished, but they suddenly felt that here
There is a surging undercurrent, and my unintentional actions may be directly used by others. That's all, in Jinghuafang, which is full of undercurrents, all the embroiderers should be holding back their energy, it depends on how I will be used in the future.
It's just a common tactic in the workplace. Du Juan naturally knew it, but she also thought of a countermeasure. However, the aunt in charge did not let her go, so she simply told her the truth, "Go back to aunt, the person outside the door
The little girl is not a beggar. She lingered outside the square for more than a month just to attend a few silk sculpture classes in Jinghua Square. She..."
"Hahaha..." The aunt in charge suddenly laughed wildly and interrupted Du Juan, "Du Xiu Niang, I'm afraid you are not in a trance or confused, but you actually spoke for a little beggar. She still wants to join Jinghuafang, what do you think our Jinghuafang is?"
, a beggar gang that takes in beggars? I don’t understand. All the embroiderers in this workshop are hiding away, but why do you do the opposite? Let alone more than a month, she has been outside the workshop for a year, ten years
, she is not qualified to enter Jinghuafang!"
Du Juan's suppressed anger could no longer be suppressed. The aunt in charge did not have any sympathy. Just when she was thinking about how to reply, the aunt in charge continued, "The embroiderers in the workshop come from various famous families in Daming Prefecture, and are relatives of the emperor.
At home, I was pampered and had a perverse personality like yours! But when you enter Jinghuafang, you have to listen to me and understand the rules and etiquette. You are from Dengzhou, so it is your honor to enter Jinghuafang.
How can you compare to them here?"
I originally came from Dengzhou, and after entering this dream, I finally found my roots. Thank you, aunt!
"They are from a famous family, but I don't know how much you respect them." Du Juan went online and couldn't suppress his anger anymore. Faced with her aunt's difficulties, Du Juan could not tolerate her. Subconsciously, Du Juan knew where she came from.
There is no need for her to be afraid of what will happen next.
Du Juan's words made the aunt in charge furious, "You are so brave! You dare to speak to me like this. Everyone here must respect me. You are out of the house without repentance, but you speak categorically."
If you think it is justified, I will punish you severely."
"Come on!" Du Juan said to the manager.
The aunt in charge bit her lip fiercely. Seeing this look in her eyes, she wanted Du Juan to leave Jinghuafang forever. She heard her yelling, "Someone is here!"
Four women in white clothes came out of the inner door of the hall, each with a dogmatic and rigid look. Their eyes were as fierce as those of the aunt in charge. The four women bowed to the aunt in charge politely, "Aunt!"
"Listen up, four of you! Watch her carefully tonight! Du Xiu Niang, since you don't want to stay in the workshop so much, then I will let you stay here. You can kneel here and reflect, and wait until tomorrow morning.
Decision! If you still don't know your mistake, you will keep kneeling here!" It's over! This has completely angered my aunt. What should I do? They also said that I would let my little girl enter Jinghuafang, but now it seems that I can't protect myself.
The aunt walked away with her sleeves. When the four women saw her aunt leaving, they surrounded Du Juan. Du Juan was really scared and faced her aunt quarrelsomely, which was okay; if these four women were really the confidants of the aunt in charge, they would be hard to beat with both fists.
Hands, I'm afraid I'll be sad tonight.
"Don't come here! What are you going to do!" Du Juan took a few steps back. The four women had expressionless faces. The aunt in charge had already reached the palace door. She looked back at Du Juan being surrounded and secretly said with joy, "Let you see.
What are the rules!"
In the cold night, the wind suddenly blew. After passing through the bamboo forest, the rustling wind became louder. The tightly wrapped quilt fell to the side, and with a start, the little girl woke up from the cold. When she looked back, she saw that Du Juan was not around, so she started to look for her anxiously.
"Sister Juan, sister Juan..."
After shouting a few times, she called my mother over, "Mom, what's wrong!" When her mother entered the room and saw that Du Juan was no longer in the room, she hurriedly picked up the quilt and wrapped her tightly in her arms, not in a hurry.
He said slowly, "It's okay, don't be afraid, little girl, my mother is here."
"Did Sister Juan leave? Did she not care about me?" Xiao Niang was careful. Du Juan left without saying goodbye this time, but she misunderstood.
