Chapter 273: My eyes are too lame



The spring water is calm and the spring branches are graceful. When you see them, you feel as if a gentle and warm spring breeze is blowing on your face.

It's really a magical skill!

Generally, double-sided embroidery is relatively small. This is the first time Shen Yizi has seen such a huge piece of embroidery. He wonders how much time and effort the embroiderer must have spent to create such a masterpiece!

In addition, there are several embroidery works hanging on both walls, all of which are brightly colored and lifelike.

Shen Yizhi asked the maid next to her, "Are all these embroidery works embroidered by Madam Du?"

The maid glanced at her from head to toe, and a bit of pride appeared on her face. "Of course!"

This kind of scrutinizing look is really unpleasant.

Shen Yizhi originally wanted to find out more about Madam Du, but seeing the maid's attitude, he immediately lost interest and just wandered around the store casually.

But the maid seemed to be afraid that she might do something wrong, so she followed her wherever she went and kept a close eye on her.

This is really off-putting.

Shen Yizi moved his fingers and cast a spell of immobilization on her. The maid was instantly fixed in place. Before she could shout out, she pressed her mute point.

Now, the maid was unable to move or speak.

Her eyes widened with fear. Shen Yizhi chuckled, ignored her panicked and pleading look, and walked over leisurely.

Anyway, the immobilization spell will wear off soon, so just let her stand here for a while.

The first floor displays various cloths and silks, and also sells small items such as handkerchiefs, silk flowers, belts, hats, cushions, etc.

After touring the first floor, she wanted to go up to the second floor to take a look, but was stopped by the maid at the stairs.

"I'm sorry, only our distinguished guests can enter the second floor."

He said sorry and had a smile on his face, but the naked contempt in his eyes was too obvious.

Shen Yizhi was puzzled. Why did the maids hired by the famous embroidery master, Madam Du, all have such high standards? As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. She couldn't help but doubt Madam Du's vision and character.

Shen Yizhi smiled playfully: "Oh? Then how can I become a distinguished guest?"

A sneer came from the side: "Someone like you will never be a distinguished guest."

Shen Yizhi looked over and saw a girl of about fifteen or sixteen standing there with her arms crossed. She was wearing a skirt embroidered with feathers and hundreds of birds. She was radiant and colorful.

She was talking about skirts, of course.

"Who are you? Why do you say that I can't be a distinguished guest?" Shen Yizi was possessed by the spirit of acting at this moment, and she portrayed the role of a dusty woman wandering around the world to perfection.

Seeing her fierce appearance but weak inner self and totally lack of confidence, Du Yingying became more and more disdainful.

The maid next to her said, "This is the young master of our Wenxiu Pavilion! What do you think she has the right to do?"

Du Yingying raised her chin, vividly expressing the phrase "nostrils pointing to the sky".

"Oh, I see." Shen Yizi dragged out the tone, which was somewhat meaningful.

No wonder he is so arrogant.

Du Yingying did not see the expected expression of sudden enlightenment and fear. She felt that her show of pretense was just for a blind man and she became more and more displeased with her.

"The clothes sold on the second floor are for the rich. The materials are very delicate and cannot be damaged by rough hands and feet. For someone like you, you'd better buy them downstairs."

Du Yingying pointed to a corner and said, "Look, those are clearance items from our store. They're very cheap, but they're much better than what you have on."

She looked like she was getting a bargain.

Shen Yizhi stroked his cuffs. Better than what she was wearing? Wasn't the young master of the Embroidery Pavilion too blind?

"Do you know what I'm wearing?"

Du Yingying seemed to have heard a huge joke: "What could it be? It's just worthless coarse cloth."

Shen Yizhi: “…”

The dress she was wearing was made of water silk, as soft as clouds, as thin as cicada wings, and as light as floating feathers. It just didn't have too many beautiful patterns embroidered on it, so it looked a little plain.

In the mouth of this young master, it actually became a worthless coarse cloth? As the saying goes, respect the clothes first and then respect the person. This young master, no, it should be said that this Embroidery Pavilion really implemented this saying thoroughly.

Shen Yizhi looked at the huge double-sided embroidered screen in the hall again. To be able to embroider such a work, the Du lady must be a clever and intelligent woman, right? But why are her shop assistant and daughter like this? If only one person is like this, it's fine, but if two or three are so arrogant and judge people by their clothes, then there is a big problem.

But she was still a little curious about Madam Du. Since she was already here, she might as well meet her.

Maybe she made a wrong judgment?

Shen Yizhi looked into Du Yingying's eyes and hypnotized her with his mental power: "I want to ask Madam Du to make a dress and take me to see her."

The maid sneered. Their master was very busy. How could she see him whenever she wanted? However, to her surprise, the young master turned around and led the way without saying a word.

The maid was shocked. Is this still the young master she knew?

Shen Yizhi followed Du Yingying to the backyard, where the embroiderers worked. Madam Du was in a separate room with a maid guarding the door.

Shen Yizhi couldn't help but feel a little strange. Does embroidery need a maid to guard the door? But maybe Madam Du is afraid of noise and doesn't want people to disturb her easily? She is obsessed with embroidery. It's understandable.

When the maid saw Du Yingying, she put down the canvas in her hand and said, "Miss, why are you here?" But she was looking at Shen Yizi, with a hint of nervousness in her expression.

Du Yingying ignored her and walked in.

The maid was caught off guard, and when she reacted she exclaimed, and hurried to stop her, "Miss, the lady is busy inside, you can't disturb her now, you'd better come back later."

While stopping him, he looked at Shen Yizi vigilantly.

If Madam Du was embroidering inside, she wouldn't be so nervous, right? She looked like she was afraid they would see something.

Shen Yizi's eyes flashed, and his spiritual sense probed into it.

What did she see? Madam Du was actually doing something unspeakable with a man on the couch in the inner room?

Hearing the noise outside, Madam Du hurriedly pushed the man on her back and urged him in a low voice: "Hurry up, someone is coming!"

The man kissed her on the face and rubbed her hard, "You're going to make me weak sooner or later!"

Madam Du hastily comforted him, "Good man, I will make it up to you tonight."

"That's what you said."

The man hurriedly put on his clothes and went out through the secret door.

Shen Yizi chased out with his spiritual sense and "saw" that behind the secret door was an alley. The man walked out as if he was familiar with the way.
