Chapter 319: Seeking Opinions
"Did you manage to buy it?" Jiang asked."I did!" Shen Qinglan said without changing her expression, "I left it at Jinxiu Mansion, and asked Shopkeeper Qu to help keep an eye on it."
She looked at Jiang and said, "Aunt, I want you to help me with something, not sure if you have the time."
"You’re aware of my schedule!" Jiang glared at her playfully, "Just tell me what you need. As long as I can manage, I will certainly help."
"I want to find a group of skilled embroiderers in our Lishui Village," Shen Qinglan said, "Look around the village and pick out those who are good at embroidery for me."
"You’ve come to the right person!" Jiang laughed, "There are plenty of skilled embroiderers in our village."
"Aunt, are you free tomorrow morning?" Shen Qinglan asked.
"Yes, I am," Jiang replied, "Now that people have moved to the town, only your third uncle is busy with the farm work. He might not manage it all. Your elder uncle is unreliable; he runs off to the mountains whenever he returns to the village. I need to go back and help your third uncle."
"All right then!" Shen Qinglan said, "I’ll join you in returning to the village tomorrow morning."
"By the way, what exactly are you planning to do?" Jiang looked at her suspiciously, "Could it be that you want to make a lot of embroidered cartoon character items?"
"Something like that!" Shen Qinglan replied, "But it’s different this time, I want to make cushion covers."
"Cushion covers?" Dong Yao, who was nearby, furrowed her brows, "Is there a market for them?"
"Not sure!" Shen Qinglan stated, "So I want to craft a batch first and see the response. If it’s positive, I’ll continue making them!"
Jiang shook her head helplessly, "You have all sorts of bizarre ideas in your head, thinking about these peculiar things."
Shen Qinglan chuckled, "It’s just a whim. If it doesn’t work, then there’s nothing I can do."
These things are easy to imitate, especially the embroidery done by Shen Qingju and Shen Qinghe. Once an average person buys them, a few practice sessions and they’ll nail it.
Fortunately, Jinxiu Mansion only accepts items embroidered by the two of them. Otherwise, they might have been phased out long ago.
"How has our cousin been these days?"
She hadn’t been able to visit Shen Qinghe due to illness, and wasn’t sure how she was doing.
"Much better, the doctor said she’s stable now." Jiang smiled, "In a few days, she will be able to come and visit you guys. You won’t have to go over to keep her company daily."
Ever since Shen Qinghe learned she was pregnant, she became especially sensitive, particularly when the doctor mentioned her pregnancy wasn’t stable, she overthought things even more.
During this period, Jiang Ming dared not go anywhere, staying home with her every day. Only when visitors from this side arrive does he dare to go out.
Jiang’s wife treats her exceptionally well, personally overseeing her meals three times a day, not allowing anyone else to do so to avoid mistakes.
In short, Shen Qinghe is treasured in the Jiang Family.
Sometimes, even Shen Qingju couldn’t help but envy Shen Qinghe for marrying into such a good family.
She married into the Li family, receiving support from her family, living without worries about food and clothing, and her parents-in-law along with sister-in-law have become more reserved, but it’s still not as comfortable as Shen Qinghe’s life.
Speaking of the Li family, Shen Qinglan suddenly remembered that next year, Li Wei is supposed to go to the Capital for exams.
She looked at Dong Yao and Jiang and said, "Mom, Aunt, there’s something I’d like to tell you."
"What is it?"
Both looked at her with curiosity.
"It’s just..." she hesitated and said, "After my second brother gets married, I want to take you both to the Capital for a trip."
