Yuchi Xi took the washed fox skin to the clothing bureau.
This clothing bureau was specifically responsible for making clothes for Emperor Dewu, but since Yuchi Xi was born, all of his clothes were made by the embroiderers here.
At this moment, many embroiderers in the Shangyi Bureau were embroidering clothes. One of them was particularly beautiful. Her skin was as white as snow, and she had big eyes, a small mouth and a high nose bridge.
The most important thing is that her father is an official. Although he is not a high-ranking official, his status is higher than that of an ordinary embroiderer.
Therefore, when she first came, most of the embroiderers catered to her, praised her, and even invited her to have meals with them several times.
After being rejected by her, some of the embroiderers felt dissatisfied.
"Look at her, she's embroidering all day long. If you didn't know her, you'd think she really enjoyed making clothes."
"You came here to work, just to get closer to the Emperor and seduce him!"
"I say, stop being so nagging. You're misinterpreting other people's hard work. If you're wasting your time gossiping, you might as well focus on honing your skills!"
"Hey, isn't this Xiaoyu? You're still here holding her stinky feet?"
"Even Chen Haimei doesn't care about you!"
Xiaoyu was speechless. "I can't reason with a bunch of short-sighted people like you."
"I don't want to waste my breath on you guys."
Xiaoyu said this and went to embroider by herself. She also wanted to improve her skills.
The two men pouted at her back, "One is just flattering Chen Haimei."
"Do you really think Chen Haimei would be willing to associate with you?"
"I'm so proud!"
"Hey, look at Chen Haimei, is she almost done?"
The two of them looked at each other and gave each other a wicked smile.
The two men passed by Chen Haimei and pretended to be casual and poured the tea in their hands directly onto Chen Haimei's embroidered cloth.
Chen Haimei fell silent as she looked at the work that was only one step away from completion.
The two of them quickly apologized, "Oh, Hai Mei, I'm sorry, we didn't mean it."
"Don't be angry, we both apologized."
Chen Haimei stood up. The two men looked at her with smug expressions. Chen Haimei slapped them in the face. "Pa!"
Another slap came, "Pa!"
"I'm sorry, I can't control my hands anymore."
"Don't be angry, I've already apologized."
"You!" Both of them covered their faces, their eyes red.
Xiaoyu, who was standing by, saw this and spat at the two of them, "Serves you right!"
"Hai Mei didn't hit you enough. If I were her, I would beat you both."
The work was just one step away from completion, but they ruined it completely.
The embroiderers who supported the two girls rushed over, as if they wanted to teach Chen Haimei a lesson.
"What are you all doing here?"
A soft voice was heard, and the quarrel stopped. They all looked towards the door and saw Yuchi Xi walking in with a piece of fox fur.
Yuchi Xi asked them, "I want to ask, I want to make a scarf out of this fox fur, is there anyone who can make it?"
They finally reacted and quickly bowed, "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Little Princess!"
"Stand up!"
After the greetings, those people no longer cared about dealing with Chen Haimei. They rushed to Yuchi Xi one by one and recommended themselves, "I know how to do it! I know how to do it!"
Yuchi Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, come one by one, can you show me your work?"
Those people hurried to get their works. When Yuchi Xi raised his eyes, he saw Chen Haimei taking down her embroidery cloth.
When Yuchi Xi caught a glimpse of her work, his eyes lit up.
"Wow!!"
“So beautiful!!”
Yuchi Xi ran over, raised her head and asked Chen Haimei, "Sister, can I see your work?"
Chen Haimei was stunned for a moment, "Of course, but my work...is not yet finished."
Yuchi Xi reached out to take it and took a look. Chen Haimei's embroidery was of a kingfisher holding fruit. The lines were smooth, the colors were soft, the composition was rigorous, and it was lifelike. The only pity was that the embroidery cloth was stained by tea, causing the color tone to change slightly.
It also destroyed this perfect embroidery.
Yuchi Xi felt very sorry, "If there was no tea..."
Chen Haimei concealed the disappointment in her eyes.
Xiaoyu said, "Little Princess, Haimei's embroidery skills are the best here."
Hai Mei?
Why does this name sound familiar?
Yuchi Xi couldn't remember.
"What do you mean her embroidery skills are the best?"
"Xiaoyu, you and Chen Haimei are friends, there's no need to praise her and put us down, right?!"
“That’s right!”
Xiaoyu: ...
How did she step down on them?
She just said that Hai Mei's embroidery skills were the best.
She is telling the truth!
Seeing that they were about to argue, Yuchi Xi said, "Sister Chen, are you willing to help me deal with this fox fur?"
"I have some fox skins later."
"Maybe you need to help me deal with it."
"I want to make a scarf out of this piece."
"I see you're great at embroidery. I'll draw a pattern, can you embroider it for me?"
"Okay." Chen Haimei didn't expect the little princess would choose her, so she quickly agreed.
Yuchi Xi curved his eyebrows.
The embroiderer beside her quickly said, "Little Princess, don't be fooled by Xiaoyu!"
“In fact, our embroidery skills are better!”
They immediately handed their embroidery to Yuchi Xi.
Yuchi Xi picked it up and took a look at it, then he was speechless. "I'm not blind."
"Can this compare to Sister Chen's?"
