Chapter 257: Want to Become a Master
Seeing that Ah Yu was reluctant to go, Du Ruomei did not force her. Instead, she pulled out a purse that she had just embroidered from her sleeve and said, "I embroidered this for fun when I was free. I'm giving it to you."
Ayu took the purse, took a look at it, and was immediately amazed.
"Sister Ruomei, your embroidery is so beautiful, isn't it?"
After Ah Yu finished speaking, she gently tugged at her sister's sleeve and whispered to her, "Sister, Ruomei is very good at embroidery. I want to learn embroidery from her. Is that okay with you?"
"Are you interested in her embroidery?" Yue Fuli asked, looking down at the purse in Yue Fuyu's hand. She was slightly stunned when she saw it.
She was familiar with this embroidery. Du Ruolan had given her handkerchiefs and other things before, and the embroidery was exactly the same as the purse in her sister's hand.
What did Du Ruolan say at that time?
"Ari, look, I hurt my hands while embroidering a handkerchief for you." As Du Ruolan said this, she showed her hand that had been pricked by the needle several times.
Seeing that the hand had indeed been pricked by a needle, Yue Fuli naturally thought that the embroidery was made by Du Ruolan herself. Who would have thought that the owner of the embroidery was someone else?
If she hadn't seen the handkerchief embroidered by Du Ruomei now, she probably would never have known about this in her life, and would have actually thought that the embroidery was embroidered by Du Ruolan.
Du Ruomei vaguely heard Ah Yu talking to Yue Fuli about embroidery, but she didn't hear the whole thing, so she pretended to be unhappy and said, "Sister Ah Yu, what are you whispering to the boss about? Can I listen too?"
Ah Yu had already received her sister's approval. After hearing this, she didn't hide it and said directly, "Sister Ruomei, the purses you embroidered are so beautiful. I want to learn embroidery from you, okay?"
"You want to learn embroidery from me?" Du Ruomei was stunned. She never expected that Yue Fuyu would actually ask to learn embroidery from her.
There's nothing wrong with her taking in an apprentice, but she's afraid her boss won't agree.
Therefore, she looked up at Yue Fuli and asked, "Boss, what is this?"
Yue Fuli glanced at Du Ruomei and said, "If you are willing to teach her, then we can formally become her apprentices. But if that's the case, then you might not be suitable to be the manager of my shop anymore. So, you have to think this over carefully."
Du Ruomei fell silent. Ah Yu, however, was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Sister, why is it that, since Sister Ruomei is my master, I can't help you manage the shop?"
"Because I don't have time." Yue Fuli smiled and touched his sister's head, then said to Du Ruomei, "Think about it carefully. If you really teach Ah Yu, the treatment will be the same as other teachers. In addition to three hundred taels of silver per year, there will also be two sets of clothes every season."
"Boss, I'll think it over carefully." Du Ruomei nodded. Speaking of which, Yue Fuli gave a lot of money, not to mention the clothes. Even in the capital, being a tutor for a noble family would earn about the same.
"Okay, then you think about it carefully first and tell me when you have made up your mind." After seeing the progress of the shop's decoration, Yue Fuli said goodbye to Du Ruomei and took A Yu to the embroidery building to buy things needed for embroidery.
After buying the things, he took a carriage to pick up Lu Jingxing.
Yue Fuli knocked on the courtyard door. The servant who opened the door saw her and immediately greeted her with a smile, "Miss, you are here?"
"Is Mr. Lu here?"
"Yes, I'm meeting with a guest."
