Chapter 59: Yinniang’s Marriage (Part 1)
The needle and thread in Liu Sanniang’s hand moved in and out of the cloth seemlessly. On the green cloth, elegant pear blossoms gradually formed, looking lifelike.
When the ladies who were on good terms with Liu Sanniang knew that she was embroidering at home, they all came to look for her.
After the spring harvest ended, they had time to play.
Liu Sanniang’s embroidery undoubtedly made them exclaim in envy.
Liu Zhi’er held Liu Sanniang’s arm. “Sanniang, Yue’er, you have to teach us. We don’t need to be as good as you. Even two-tenths of you will do.”
Liu Hui and Liu Ju’er also nodded. “Sanniang, you have to teach us.”
Liu Sanniang smiled and nodded. Before she got married, they could still get together often. After they got married, it would be very difficult for them to meet each other. Sometimes, they could only get together once every few years.
Time was very precious now.
In Liu Sanniang’s early days, they were the ones who filled her memories.
Liu Sanniang explained the embroidery method to them.
Knock, knock, knock.
There was another knock on the door and a voice came from outside.
“Sanniang, are you home?”
It was Liu Yinniang’s voice. After the previous incident, the relationship between Madam Wei and Madam Bai did not improve. Liu Yinniang only interacted with Liu Sanniang in private. When Liu Yinniang saw Liu Zhi’er, Liu Ju’er, and Liu Hui looking for Liu Sanniang today, she could not help but come as well.
Liu Zhi’er, Liu Ju’er, and Liu Hui looked at Liu Sanniang and asked her as to when she became friends with Liu Sanniang.
Liu Sanniang smiled. “Yinniang is also a very good girl. You all will like her.”
Liu Sanniang stood up and opened the door. Liu Yinniang carried a small basket and entered the courtyard. “Sanniang, I made some pastries to share with all of you.”
Liu Yinniang pulled open the cloth covering the basket and revealed a plate filled with scallion pancakes.
Liu Yinniang took it out. “Can I join you?”
Liu Zhi’er smiled and took a scallion pancake. “Of course. It’s good to learn together when we have time.”

Liu Sanniang never hesitated to teach them what she knew.
Soon, they started chatting. Liu Yinniang was a perky girl and quickly integrated into the group.
Liu Sanniang went to get the plum syrup from the well for them.
Liu Yinniang’s eyes lit up. “Sanniang, you’re really amazing. You can make everything.”
Liu Sanniang smiled. “Because I like to drink it.”
She had learned her culinary skills from her mother. In her previous life, apart from embroidery, all she did was cooking.
“Sanniang, if you open a restaurant, there will definitely be a lot of customers. Everyone knows how to make plum syrup, but what you make tastes better.”
Liu Yinniang put down the bowl and wiped her mouth.
“That would be too tiring.”
Liu Sanniang waved her hand. She enjoyed cooking for herself because it was therapeutic, but opening a restaurant would really be too tiring.
“Sanniang, whoever marries you in the future will be extremely lucky.”
Liu Ju’er was a little shy. Getting married was the most urgent matter for people her age. There would be fewer and fewer days like this where she could be with her friends.
What kind of people they would marry would determine what kind of life they would have in the future!
Liu Hui sighed. “Ju’er, did your stepmother start introducing men to you?”
Liu Ju’er nodded with a frown.
She really envied Liu Sanniang and the others.
Their mothers were good, and they didn’t have to worry about the future at all. The husband their mothers chose for them wouldn’t be too bad either, unlike her.
She was already 15 years old. If not for the fact that she could work, her stepmother would have kicked her out of the house already.
However, recently, Liu Ju’er had been feeling uneasy as there were a bunch of strangers visiting her house.
Liu Ju’er did not want to get married because she knew that her stepmother did not want her to have an easy life. With such a heart, how could she let her marry a good person?
Liu Zhi’er looked at Liu Ju’er and asked. “Did your family decide upon anyone for you?”
Liu Ju’er smiled bitterly. “Soon they will. If I get engaged, I won’t be able to come and play with you girls in the future.”
After the engagement, she would be preparing to embroider the wedding dress. There was still work to do at home, so she wouldn’t have time.
“Where is he from?”
Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Ju’er and asked.
“I heard that he’s from Little Yang Village. My stepmother said that he is an orphan. If I marry him, I won’t need to worry about being bullied.”
Liu Ju’er sighed. Her heart was heavy and she was confused about the future.
Liu Ju’er’s marriage was the same as in her previous life.
Liu Sanniang held Liu Ju’er’s hand and smiled. “Ju’er, you’re a blessed person. There are many kinds of blessings in the world. Some people want to get rich and some people want to not starve, while others want to have someone who will treat them sincerely.”
Liu Ju’er looked at Liu Sanniang. “I don’t want anything else. I…”
She only wanted someone who could treat her sincerely, love her and care about her. God knew how much she yearned for this. She envied Liu Sanniang, Liu Zhi’er, and Liu Hui. They had been doted on and loved since they were young.
However, she didn’t know what love felt like.
Liu Ju’er wasn’t scared of being poor and was willing to work as long as she could marry someone who truly cared about her.
Liu Sanniang smiled. “Jiu’er, your wish will be fulfilled. Don’t worry.”
Liu Ju’er looked at Liu Sanniang in a daze and asked. “Really?”
“Of course, it will be,” Liu Sanniang said seriously.
Liu Yinniang was a little anxious. “Sanniang, what about me? Will what I want come true?”
Liu Zhi’er also looked at Liu Sanniang eagerly. “What about me?”
Liu Hui quickly pointed at herself. “And me, Sanniang, and me…”
Liu Sanniang was speechless.
Liu Sanniang gave them a reassuring look and said with a smile, “All your wishes will be fulfilled.”
Liu Yinniang smiled shyly. “Sanniang, do you know that what you said made me feel especially at ease? I really don’t think I’m worthy of Liu Shun. He’s already a scholar, but he actually came to my house personally to propose marriage. I’m really happy, but I don’t have any skills. I think he can find someone much better than me.”
Liu Sanniang frowned. “Yinniang, who did you just say came over?”
Liu Yinniang replied. “Liu Shun, you won’t mind, will you? My mother said that he proposed to you first, but your mother refused him.”
Liu Sanniang was a little embarrassed, but she still nodded. “Yes, we refused him.”
Liu Yinniang looked at Liu Sanniang in confusion. “Why?”
Could it really be because Liu Sanniang had high standards?
When the matchmaker came to the house to propose marriage, she told Madam Bai a lot. Liu Yinniang was eavesdropping on the conversation and was puzzled. Was Liu Sanniang’s standard really that high?
