I became a concubine in the palace and cured my master's hidden disease.

Chapter 110 Talent is Important

No one knew what kind of medicine Zhao Yuan was selling in his gourd. He called it recuperation and wanted everyone to envy and be jealous of him. But when King Heng came, he disappeared without even saying hello to her.

Let her disappear, she was happy and relaxed. The most infuriating thing was that she was now locked up invisibly in the Crescent Moon Courtyard.

The number of guards outside the courtyard not only did not decrease, but doubled. The entire Crescent Moon Courtyard was now in a closed state. Even Mosquito had to be checked when he came in, so she couldn't even think about going out. With a courtyard like a well, it was no wonder that one or two women had nothing to do and only thought about snatching men.

Lin Yan laughed in her heart. This is what is called love. He focused all his attention on her, but he ran away secretly. I don't know what tricks he is playing. He successfully made herself a target.

Therefore, this person is not worth her giving up everything to love him.

He was good to her, he really was good to her, but that was just in line with the times. What most people thought was good was not what she wanted.

What she wants... I don’t know if Li Yiyuan has returned to the capital. I’ll go and have a look at it some other day under the pretext of going out to buy clothes.

Mango lived up to everyone's expectations. She took some change and snacks and wandered around day and night. She soon became friends with the servants in the palace. Some gossip began to reach her ears inadvertently.

Bored Lin Yan looked at the white clouds flying in the sky. Occasionally, a few birds landed in the courtyard of the Crescent Moon Courtyard and became rare guests and honored guests.

Lin Yan started thinking when she had nothing to do: the several dangerous encounters she encountered during this trip made her realize her own shortcomings, and she decided to adapt to the local customs.

The formula is too extreme. If you don’t have a strong background, any idea will inevitably backfire in the end.

In ancient times, industry was backward, but threading a needle was indispensable. Embroidery was a popular craft among women and could be a stepping stone to making money, so it had to be learned.

An embroiderer can support a whole family, and if she is lucky enough to learn double-sided embroidery, she can be considered a winner in life.

Lin Yan looked at Nanny Wei and began to ponder. You have to know that Nanny Wei is an old lady who retired from the palace and came out alive. She used to be the manager of the Chu Embroidery Palace. Not only can she embroider, but she is also unique in embroidery skills.

Lin Yan looked at her hands, which were white and tender, and thought it shouldn't be difficult to embroider a flower. She didn't know that Lin Yan used to be just a low-class gatekeeper in the palace, and her hands were clumsier than her feet. She didn't know how good the new Lin Yan's craftsmanship was.

When Lin Yan mentioned it, Nanny Wei thought she just wanted to kill time and readily agreed.

Let Green Tea prepare the trellis, embroidery needle, and silk thread. I decided to teach her three simple needlework techniques first, and then teach her how to make a small purse, a small handkerchief, or a close-fitting garment.

Lin Yan is a diligent and good student, but embroidery also requires talent. Lin Yan's needle-holding technique made Wei Ma feel that her ideas were a little biased.

An ordinary thread needs to be split into six parts. Lin Yan split it into six small sections without any suspense. Some were thick and some were thin, and it was barely possible to pick out one or two to use.

Threading the needle and inserting the needle into the embroidery surface went smoothly. Within three stitches, the threads became tangled. Even so, it did not affect Lin Yan's enthusiasm for learning.

She didn't even bother to eat on time. Maybe she was too hungry and no longer hungry. Lin Yan couldn't eat after just two bites of dinner and continued to practice her embroidery skills.

Green Tea packed up the things and sent them down, but Kai Xin came over and stood beside Lin Yan. She was speechless for a moment and began to massage her shoulders and legs.

Lin Yan: "Press harder on the left side. I didn't expect that embroidering flowers would be so tiring for my neck."

Kai Xin looked at the embroidery in Lin Yan's hands and dared not comment: "Master, why don't we take a break? I will help you embroider."

Although Lin Yan's embroidery was a mess and she was upset, she would never give up for the sake of her future. "No need, I'm much more skilled now than when I started. I'll cut off all the messy threads and maybe a pattern will come out."

Although Lin Yan said this, she was still unsure whether she could succeed. But she decided to stick with it because it might be her only way out in the future. So she picked up the needle and thread and continued to practice.

"Cut it off?" The happy words came to his lips but he dared not say them out loud, and swallowed them back. Master Lin had been embroidering this flower for a month, but he never straightened the embroidery thread. The stitches were still messy, either too long or too short, too many or too few.

Lin Yan nodded affirmatively: "Perhaps I have figured out a new embroidery method that has never been done before and will never be repeated, which will open everyone's eyes. Take a look at the lotus I embroidered. The lotus hasn't bloomed yet, so we can only rely on our imagination. I think the embroidery is not good, but the outline is still there."

Green Tea came over, watched Kai Xin admire her master's embroidery with a bitter face, and then quietly slipped away.

"Master is smart!" Kai Xin simply flattered. In his heart, he secretly complained: "Don't cut it, there will be nothing left. I don't know if Master Lin will get angry. What if this anger spreads to me, then I will be finished."

Lin Yan continued to embroider. Mother Wei came over and looked at the horrible embroidery cloth. She felt her throat was blocked. Some people are not born to hold embroidery needles, and Lin Yan in front of her is definitely the best among them. The three simplest needle techniques made her embroider the most difficult ones. She could understand that she couldn't learn it. It looked like something but not like it, and it was a mess. It was like this every day. I don't know how Master Lin did it.

"Master, why don't you take a break and let Kai Xin help you embroider for a while." Mother Wei looked at Lin Yan embroidering attentively and couldn't help but persuade her.

Lin Yan didn't even raise her head, and continued what she was doing, saying, "No, I plan to make some embroidery to sell in the future."

When Mother Wei heard this, she was so frightened that she almost jumped up and said quickly, "Master, don't be ridiculous! With your current embroidery skills, you are still far from being able to make embroidery that can be sold!"

After hearing what Wei's mother said, Lin Yan stopped sewing, looked up at her embroidery, then looked at Wei's mother, and said with a smile: "Yes, my current craftsmanship is indeed not good enough, but as long as I am willing to learn, I will be able to do it well one day."

Mother Wei looked at Lin Yan's determined eyes and secretly groaned in her heart. She knew that Lin Yan has always been a person with strong opinions. If she really wants to do something, she will stick to it. So she quickly changed her way of persuading: "Master, you have a smart mind, there is no doubt about that. But, it is not easy to make money by embroidery! After all, it takes a lot of time to embroider something, at least more than a month, and at most a year or even longer to complete. Therefore, I think you should not focus all your energy on embroidery, you can consider other ways to make money. For example, open a shop and let others help you manage the business, so that you can make more money without having to embroider yourself. What do you think?"

After hearing what Wei's mother said, Lin Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought. She carefully looked at her embroidery and found that the quality was indeed quite bad as Wei's mother said.

This embroidery needle is really difficult to control, but it’s different with an abacus. When I was running a cake shop, even the professional accountant couldn’t beat me.

Moreover, it may take time to improve embroidery skills. Thinking of this, she felt that Mother Wei's suggestion might make sense.
