Chapter 321 Beining Mansion 4
Wang Jinyi saw that her mother was looking at the decoration on the straw hat very carefully, so she took the picture and told her mother about it. Her mother asked:
"What is this thing?"
Wang Jinyi said with great interest: "This is called a bow. It can be used on girls' clothes, tied on the bun, decorated on the head, and can also be decorated on clothes, on the belt of the skirt, on the cuffs..."
The more I talked about it, the more excited I became. Suddenly, I thought of setting up a workshop in Bac Ninh Province!
For some reason, Wang Jinyi's mind suddenly popped up the image of the patrol soldiers who jumped off their horses and rushed into the fire during the inn fire...
Yes! Originally, they only thought of the children of low-ranking officers, but not the mothers and wives of ordinary soldiers. Since they wanted to help them, why didn’t they really let them survive by their own hands? !
Thinking of this, Wang Jinyi fell into deep thought and froze. Several drawings in his hand were taken away by his mother.
The drawing shows a girl wearing a hat tilted at an angle, with ornaments decorating the wide brim of the hat.
There are furry knitted hats and playful wide headbands decorated with pompoms, each of which looks lively and playful.
I drew a few more woolen hats on the drawing paper at the back, but stopped just after sketching the outlines.
In fact, whether it is making a hat, hair accessories, or a headband, it is all for the purpose of making your hair not appear too abrupt when it is neither too long nor too short.
Think about it, other girls have black hair like clouds, but you have a head full of sparse little steel needles, and the lengths are different. Even in your previous life when you could pay attention to your individuality, you could not satisfy the public aesthetic!
Because Wang Jinyi had a back injury, he couldn't support his body for too long, so at this moment, he lay down obediently again.
If you want to make so many kinds of headwear, you can actually open a workshop, which can encourage some people to be self-reliant and help the Wang family members in Bac Ninh Prefecture. After all, not just anyone can stay in the young lady's embroidery room.
The mother held the blueprint, her eyes full of surprise: "Jin'er, your ideas are very good. If they are made, Jin'er will be more beautiful when she wears them, and her short hair won't look too weird. It will be fine as her hair grows longer."
"Mother, how about we open a workshop to make these items?
But to set up this workshop, we need to find a suitable place and some skillful people."
"Jin'er, what do you want to do?
You know, it is impossible for the Xunyang Wang family to run it themselves. At most, they will provide it to the clan as they did in Xunyang Prefecture, and let the clan handle the rest."
"Mother, you said that we live in the Beining Wang family and have their protection. What do you think about bringing the Beining Wang family with us this time?"
"If Jin'er wants to do it, she must tell the elders as soon as possible and inform the tribe. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to inform the tribe when the elders return!"
When Wang Jinyi saw her mother nod, she lay on the bed and thought seriously about what to do next.
The mother thoughtfully and silently prepared paper and pen for her daughter, and placed them all on her daughter's bed within reach. Then she returned to the desk and quietly observed her daughter.
After Wang Jinyi thought it through, he quickly wrote on a piece of paper and put all the drawings together. "Mother, I have thought of the general idea. Please send someone to deliver it to the elders. We will talk to the elders tomorrow if there is anything."
My mother read it carefully and sent Mr. Wu, who was on night duty at the door, to deliver the letter to the clan elders overnight.
The next morning, the elders of the Wang family who stayed behind in the yard and the elders who came specially from Langya held an emergency meeting without eating, and then went to the backyard together.
Under normal circumstances, men do not enter women's yards, but that is under normal circumstances.
Today, the head of the Beining Wang family and all the female relatives were brought here together.
Wang Jinyi had just packed up, finished her meal, and was about to take her medicine when she heard noisy footsteps in front of the courtyard gate.
The little maid came in and reported: "Madam, Miss, the master of the clan has brought people here."
The mother smoothed her daughter's hair and went to the door.
The door curtain was lifted, bringing a cool breeze into the room. At the same time, several people, both men and women, came in. Wang Jinyi couldn't get up, and tilted her head to look at the group of people coming in.
The people who came into the room were the elders who wanted to punish Feng Jie and the others according to the clan rules yesterday, as well as an elder from the Wang family convoy, and the uncle followed closely behind. Huh? Who are these people behind them?
Leading the way behind was a middle-aged man. He wore a black satin hat with a white jade inlaid on the brim. He had broad eyebrows and a long beard under his chin, alternating between black and white.
Behind him followed a young man, who was tall and slender, dressed in a brocade robe. Both of them had jade family emblems under their belts. From the silk and brocade robes they were wearing, it could be concluded that they both had made great achievements.
I remember that only those who passed the imperial examination could use slaves, and only those who passed the imperial examination could wear silk. So, the family of the King of Bac Ninh were all from the juren or higher class? !
Just as they were thinking about it, an old lady with a kind face walked out from behind the crowd.
The elder introduced the two sides: "This is the head of the Beining Wang family. He is of the same generation as the head of the Xunyang Wang family. This is Wang Shuyi, the eldest son of the Beining Wang family."
My mother bowed her head nervously, and the old woman walking in front of her reached out to support my mother who was bowing. After the two sides greeted each other, they sat down according to their seniority.
Wang Jinyi lay on the bed with her head tilted, smiling at everyone. Not knowing how to address them, the elder of the clan cleared his throat and reminded Wang Jinyi:
"Call people according to their seniority!"
Wang Jinyi called out tentatively: "How are your grandparents? How are your uncles? How are your cousins? Cousin... uncle..."
The woman behind my great-aunt bowed her head and whispered, "I, I am the eldest daughter-in-law, this is..."
Her voice became lower and lower. Wang Jinyi stared and pricked up his ears but couldn't hear clearly. He looked at his mother for help. The mother looked at the child and smiled helplessly.
It turns out that my mother didn’t hear it clearly either!
The great-aunt said softly, "This one should be called Auntie. The one behind her is the eldest daughter of the family. She is older than you, so you should call her Cousin..."
Wang Jinyi's mind was wandering, and the rocking car with flashing lights in front of the store in his previous life appeared inappropriately, "Dad's dad is called Grandpa, and dad's mom is called Grandma..."
The devilish voice overlapped with the introduction of his great-aunt, and Wang Jinyi had a strange smile on his face.
My great aunt pulled my mother and other female relatives to sit in a corner, leaving the main seats for the men.
Every time at this time, there is always a voice in Wang Jinyi's heart reminding herself: Women should be self-reliant. My destiny is the only one I can control. I am not a embellishment or supporting role in anyone's life!
The elder waited until everyone in the room finished greeting each other, then he said:
"I called everyone here today to confirm a few things in front of everyone."
"Xunyang Wang's grandson Jinyi, the three of us elders have seen the things you sent last night. Today, we want to hear your thoughts in person."
