Chapter 25 Section 6: What is embroidered is not mandarin ducks, but a woman's dream

Taking advantage of Wu Dalang's absence, Wang Po groped her way in.Pan Jinlian quickly put down the embroidery in her hand, stepped forward to greet her, asked her to sit down, and brought her a cup of hot tea. If Pan Jinlian is compared to the naive Snow White, Wang Po is a witch with malicious intentions.Wang Po rolled her eyes, picked up Pan Jinlian's embroidery, and exclaimed in her mouth, "My lady is very skilled, and the embroidered mandarin ducks are just like living ones. If you say that the female mandarin ducks on it are ladies, you don't know this Who is the male mandarin duck?" A seemingly joking question made Pan Jinlian's face darken.The old lady saw it in her eyes, and she understood four or five points in her heart.In the love life of a woman's fantasy, even if there are seven simple dwarfs, it is not as good as a romantic prince.Wu Dalang, who looks like the bark of a three-inch Dinggu tree, is obviously not that prince.

"Young lady is so lucky!" Wang Po continued to laugh, and said, "Look at Wu Dalang offering you from morning to night, letting you sit under this window and embroider mandarin ducks. From my old age, where is the lady embroidering mandarin ducks? It's clearly a woman's dream!" Pan Jinlian said: "I also want to go out to work, but my Dalang is obstinately unwilling." Wang Po said: "He is a treasure in a golden house! Don't be in the midst of blessings and don't know your blessings, just enjoy them with peace of mind! Besides, finding a job is not an easy task. The job you like If you don’t make money, you don’t necessarily like a job that makes money. It’s a dilemma! It’s the same as finding a man. The man you like has no money, and you don’t necessarily like the rich man.”

Pan Jinlian sighed and said: "How can there be a good thing that has the best of both worlds?" Wang Po had already understood seven or eight points in her heart, and said, "Yes! Yes! If there is such a good thing, even if you die like a moth to a flame, it will be worth it." Pan Jinlian sighed again, raised her head and asked, "Mother Wang, what can you do with me?" "Oh! If you don't ask, I almost forgot." Wang Po seemed to suddenly remember, and began to tell the story she had already designed, "Let me tell you, there is also a big man in my family. Although he is not his own son, he You are 120% filial to me and call him Ximen Dalang. Like your Dalang, he is also a business owner. He is called Ximen Daguan. He has opened five or six shops in this county, including silk shops and ready-to-wear shops. Stores, pharmacies, and rice stores, as long as they are profitable businesses, there is nothing he does not do. The Lion Tower next to the county government, isn’t it magnificent? It is also his boss. In terms of appearance, it can be called a jade tree facing the wind, romantic and suave, and being with a lady, it can be called a good match."

Pan Jinlian pretended to be angry and said: "Mother Wang, don't make such a messy joke! Get down to business, what can I do?" Wang Po smiled apologetically and said, "That's the real thing! It's my godson named Ximen Daguan who honored me yesterday with three bolts of silk, all of which are of the best material. I thought to myself, man, always One day I will meet Lord Yan, I will live happily when I am alive, and I will die beautifully when I die. Seeing that the lady is skillful, I want to ask you to help me make a shroud." Pan Jinlian replied: "Since Mama Wang said so, how can you not help from the next door to the next door?"

Early the next morning, Pan Jinlian bid farewell to Wu Dalang, and came to Wang Po's Fengyun Pavilion as promised.Wang Po took Pan Jinlian to a spare private room and cleaned the table.He took out three bolts of silk from the bedroom and spread them out on the table.Pan Jinlian measured the size, cut the pattern, and sewed it together.The Wang Po was clapping her hands beside her, and she couldn't stop boasting.Seeing that it was noon, Wang Po prepared some food and drink for Pan Jinlian.While I was eating, I heard the sound of the door curtain and a person came in.Wang Po hurriedly got up to say hello, then turned around and introduced to Pan Jinlian that he was the legendary official from Ximen.

Ximen Qing said with a smile, "We are 'unknown if we don't fight'. If I remember correctly, this lady lives next door. It's a pleasure to meet again today." Pan Jinlian suddenly remembered that this senior official from Ximen in front of her was the romantic man who was hit in the head with a stick a few days ago.Suddenly, her heart panicked for no reason.
