Yuan Mochen didn't expect that Yuan Chuyi would be willing to help him publish a book. He thought she was just talking. After hearing what she said, he happily said "Okay" and immediately went to the city to buy the tools needed to publish the book.

Publishing a book in this era is troublesome and simple. The simple thing is that these books don’t need to be fancy or colorful, they just need to be printed and simply bound into a volume.

The main reasons are that paper and ink are expensive, and it also takes time and effort to engrave the master plate. But Yuan Mochen is not afraid of these difficulties at all. He has nothing to do except study every day. There are only more than a thousand words in the Three-Character Sutra. He can always finish it if he takes some time to carve it out every day.

After Yuan Mochen entered the city, he also returned home on the first day of Yuanchu. She didn't notice that there were five burly men on the side of the road staring at her like prey.

But Xuan Yue, who was following closely beside her, had already noticed it and looked at the five people with sharp eyes. The five people couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Who is that person?" the leader asked the person next to him.

"It seems to be a guard of Prince An's Mansion!"

"I didn't expect that King An would arrange expert protection for her!" the leader said, "Let's go to Yizhou Fucheng first and ask the hall master to send people to support us. We will come back when the reinforcements arrive. Don't alert the enemy now!"

"Yes!"

The five of them left in a hurry without even checking out of the inn room.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, I returned home and sat beside the crib to accompany the child, but my thoughts were on the previous holes in the cotton-padded clothes and quilt.

She couldn't figure out who wanted to embarrass herself and make a fool of herself? What does it do to a person if he makes a fool of himself?

"Yunxuan, go and call Aunt Shen!" She wanted to hear what Shen Xiu Niang had to say first.

Shen Xiu Niang came to her quickly.

"Madam, I really don't know what happened today, and I didn't do it. I hope Madam will investigate clearly!" Shen Xiu Niang didn't need Yuan Chuyi to say anything to know why Yuan Chuyi came to her.

Yuan Chuyi would not accuse anyone unjustly without evidence. She knew that random suspicion would chill people. What’s more, Shen Xiu Niang was still her right-hand man. This time the cotton could be made into cotton clothes and sold well. Shen Xiu Niang Indispensable contribution.

"Aunt Shen, don't be nervous. I have never doubted you, and I didn't ask you to accuse me." Yuan Chuyi said with a smile. She patted the bench next to her and said, "Come and sit here."

Charcoal was also burned in the house, and she, her child, and Yun Xuan all sat by the fire and played with the child.

"Thank you, Madam!" Shen Xiu Niang sat down cautiously.

Yunxuan poured her a cup of tea for her to drink, and she relaxed a little.

"Aunt Shen, I think what happened today is very strange, what do you think?" Yuan Chuyi said.

Shen Xiu Niang nodded in agreement, "Yes, we checked it carefully yesterday, and I don't know why it happened!"

"It looks like it was bitten by a mouse, what do you think?" Yuan Chuyi asked tentatively.

Shen Xiu Niang thought for a moment and shook her head, "It doesn't look like that to me, but it looks like it was crushed with a blunt instrument." After all, she is an experienced embroidery girl, and she can still tell this.

Yuan Chuyi smiled and said, "Let's just treat this matter as what the mice want. Let's not mention it to those embroiderers anymore, and we won't pursue it any further. What do you think?"

Shen Xiu Niang smiled and said, "You are the boss, you have the final say!"

"The cotton is almost used up now, and our embroidery workshop is about to finish work. I would like to ask Aunt Shen to go back and talk to the embroiderers in a while, and ask them to persist for a few more days to finish making these cotton clothes and quilts and see if there is any left. How much fabric is left? If there is a lot left, we will make winter clothes for a few more days, and then we will call it a day. If there is not much left, we will finish making cotton-padded clothes and quilts and call it a day!"

"Okay." Shen Xiu Niang said happily. She could go home once the work was over, but she hadn't been home for almost two months.

"I would like to ask Aunt Shen to tell you that as long as they behave themselves and work hard, I will not treat them badly. But if they have other thoughts and think that I am easy to bully, I will not be as easy to talk to as I am today!" Yuan Chuyi changed the topic and suddenly said sternly.

Shen Xiu Niang also responded hurriedly and respectfully, saying yes, and then left in a hurry.

After Shen Xiu Niang left, Yun Xuan couldn't help but look at Yuan Chu Yi, "Are you really not going to pursue the matter of damaging the cotton-padded clothes and quilt?"

Yuan Chuyi smiled and said, "Just because I won't pursue it doesn't mean that Aunt Shen won't pursue it. She worked hard to embroider the cotton coat and quilt. If she hadn't broken it herself, she would definitely find the person who caused the damage. come out!"

Yun Xuan understood and nodded, thinking about it, how angry she would be if her proud work was ruined by someone! If it were her, she would definitely find out the culprit and beat him up.

Shen Xiu Niang returned to the embroidery workshop, looked at the forty embroidery ladies, told them what she meant on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, and finally said: "Although Madam said that the matter of the cotton-padded clothes and quilt being twisted today will not be investigated, but I don't have Madam Which one of you is responsible for being so talkative? It's best to stand up and admit it yourself. If I find out, it won't look good!"

"It was strangled! Didn't you say it was bitten by a mouse?"

"Yes, the hole is so rotten that it must have been bitten by a rat. Besides, this is going to be taken to the palace to show to the emperor. Who dares to do anything wrong with such an important thing!"

"Yes! Aunt Shen, please don't accuse us wrongly!"

Shen Xiu Niang sneered, "I've been doing this embroidery for decades, can't I tell if it's been strangled?"

"I didn't do it anyway, please don't accuse me unfairly, Ms. Shen Xiu!"

"I didn't do it either..."

"..." the embroiderers said all at once.

Seeing how noisy everyone was, Yuan Shiyu said:

"If you didn't do it, you didn't do it. Don't be nervous! But if someone did it, it's best to apologize to Aunt Shen in private. After all, she embroidered it stitch by stitch, and everyone can see the hard work involved! Don't be afraid What will happen if you come out and admit it? After all, my sister said she won’t pursue it anymore, so she won’t pursue it anymore! If no one has done it, we can just work with peace of mind and don’t be afraid of panic!"

After hearing what Yuan Shiyu said, everyone quickly calmed down and lowered their heads to work seriously. There was only one person who was worried and had his hand pricked with needles several times in a row.

When Shen Xiu Niang saw that Yuan Shiyu had said the same thing, she didn't say anything more, but she felt a grudge against these embroidery ladies in her heart.

These embroiderers were all handpicked by her, and she taught them how to sew and embroider exquisite clothes. Unexpectedly, the clothes she made were damaged, and this made Yuan Chuyi suspect that he was not loyal to her! The more Shen Xiu Niang thought about it, the more panicked she became! In the next few days, she was depressed, which made the atmosphere in the entire embroidery workshop bad.
