Chapter 2124: Nan Si Qiao’s Arrival (2)
Nan Si Qiao seemed to know Nan Hua’s answer after seeing Nan Hua’s look. There was no need for Nan Hua to answer because her silent alone was already an answer.
“Let me see your skills again.” Nan Si Qiao looked at Nan Hua helplessly.
Nan Hua raised her head and sighed.
She could only nod and then waved her hand to let the maidservants prepared the materials needed for her to do embroidery.
In this era, women’s wedding dress had to be embroidered by themselves, so it could be said that Nan Hua would have no other choice but to work hard and made sure that she could finish a satisfactory result before the end.
Looking at the embroidery practice in Nan Hua’s hand, Nan Si Qiao turned from an amiable to an extremely strict aunt.
The critics went from morning to night.
Old Master Nan saw this from a distance and silently walked away. He could not understand these things and for some reasons, he was glad that he was born as a man and didn’t have to learn these.
He shivered at the thought of being forced to learn embroidery.
It was too difficult!
—
The days passed by quietly and peacefully.
Under Nan Si Qiao’s teaching and watch, Nan Hua also started to embroider her own wedding dress. Considering Nan Hua’s lack of skill, Nan Si Qiao had to think hard before settling on relatively simple pattern.
She knew very well that it would be impossible for Nan Hua to finish if she were to pick a relatively complicated pattern.
After Nan Hua saw the pattern, she felt that it was doable and agreed with Nan Si Qiao’s selection. Thus, the days of embroidering for more than half a day every day had officially started.
Aside from little training to keep up her martial arts, eating, bathing, and sleeping, Nan Hua spent her time embroidering.
Looking at the pattern that Nan Si Qiao drew on the dress, Nan Hua sighed deeply and felt that it was not easy for women. For women who had talent in this area, they would not have any trouble at all with this thing. But women who had no talent nor skills nor patient would definitely feel torture.
Nan Hua’s talent was not very high and she was someone who had high patient due to her training, so it was fine for her.
It was just that the date arranged by Long Family and Nan Family were a bit close.
With her skill, there would not be enough time to finish embroidering such a complicated pattern.
Not to mention….
She still made mistake from time to time, so Nan Si Qiao was keeping strict watch on Nan Hua to make sure that she would not make so much mistake. If there were too many mistake that she had to redo, the cloth wouldn’t be so good anymore.
So the process slowed down a lot.
Nan Hua had to be more careful with her embroidery.
And during this period of time, Nan Hua also met with Sheng Qi Rou and talked a few things with the other party. Sheng Qi Rou was not originally from the nobility family and her
knowledge about these things were lacking.
She was also not a scheming person.
Since that was the case, the relationship between Sheng Qi Rou and Nan Hua were very good and the two of them could pass as a good sister on the surface. Of course, the two of them knew very well that it was nothing more than the appearance.
They didn’t actually talk a lot.
Most of their conversation was nothing more than the gossip and so on.
And as the days passed, the ladies in Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City were also talking about Nan Hua.
However, Nan Hua would not receive these invitation letters. There were too many of them and Nan Hua felt it would be better to spend her time to embroidery or she would not be able to finish in time.
It was just that these people kept on sending these invitation.
And this time, Nan Hua found the unique and different tea party invitation.
“Imperial Family…” Nan Hua looked at the invitation letter in her hand and shook her head. The invitation letter at this era was rather crude and still either use the animal’s skin or use the bamboo scroll that was sealed.
But either way, there were still many people who held various events.
Events for women were also very often and this time, Nan Hua also saw the invitation coming from the Imperial Family.
She knew very well that this time, it would be impossible for her to reject it.
“Prepare the dress,” Nan Hua said the four maidservants. “There should be enough new dresses.”
Ever since Nan Hua’s return, Nan Si Qiao also had replenished Nan Hua’s clothes. Nan Hua herself also had many stores in Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City, so ordering new dresses were naturally not difficult.
Even though she herself didn’t think it was necessary, her previous dresses were all outdated in the view of the people here.
So for the sake of her family’s face, she had to prepare new dresses for these banquets.
It was just that Nan Hua had been rejecting the banquets and only now she accepted it. Or more like, she had to accept it to give face to the Imperial Family.
“I’ll talk to my aunt.” Nan Hua came out and found Nan Si Qiao was already waiting.
Nan Si Qiao’s current hobby was to ask Nan Hua to continue the embroidery and even though Nan Hua knew Nan Si Qiao’s well wishes, she could only sigh deeply. Nan Si Qiao’s concern was a bit overwhelming.
“Is there anything, Hua’er?” Nan Si Qiao asked when she saw Nan Hua coming to her directly instead of going towards the room where the dress was located.
“Aunt, there’s a banquet invitation from the Imperial Family. I can’t refuse,” Nan Hua said
slowly.
