Chapter 524: Mysterious Young Lady No. 517 (Part 12) - Third Update

He still vaguely remembered from his past life, when he had saved Ye Qingqing from the bandits, that he mentioned how the Ye Family saved him. She was stunned for a moment, and then she bluntly said that she had merely acted on a whim and did not take it to heart, not realizing it also greatly helped the Meng Family.

During the time that followed, he kept Ye Qingqing by his side, and the Meng Family encountered quite a few troubles, all of which he resolved.

As for later on, when she was about to marry the Thirteenth Prince as his concubine, looking pitiful before she left, he used resources to help the Thirteenth Prince, simply hoping that because of him, the Thirteenth Prince would treat her a little better.

In his previous life, he was deceived by Ye Qingqing, simply because he met her after he had come into power.

In this life, he saw through Ye Qingqing’s true nature early on, as the downfall of the Meng Family was hastened.

It was not a case of "having no other choice" but to marry the Thirteenth Prince; it was clear that Ye Qingqing was not content to be an ordinary person and wanted to marry into a wealthy and noble family!

It was bad enough that she had fooled him for one lifetime; in this life, he almost fell for Ye Qingqing’s deception again.

Even when he had nothing in his previous life, Meng Yanqiu had never felt so wretched, he was truly a... complete fool, even displacing his anger onto Ye Shaohua and Ye’s mother!

Thinking of this, he looked ahead at Tianxia Embroidery House and didn’t dare to take another step forward.

"Yanqiu, didn’t you want to see where Mother works?" After walking a few steps, Lady Meng noticed Meng Yanqiu wasn’t following and couldn’t help but stop.

Feeling his blood, which had nearly come to a halt, finally begin to flow, Meng Yanqiu slowly raised his head, looking toward Lady Meng, "I understand, Mother."

He walked very slowly, step by step.

Upon entering, Ye Shaohua continued leaning on the table, explaining to an embroiderer.

She had always been casual, and after Ye Qingqing left with the Thirteenth Prince, she couldn’t be bothered to sit down, just leaning against the corner of the table, pinching her embroidery with one hand and gesticulating with the other.

When she saw Lady Meng come over, she nodded at her, "Lady Meng."

Not very familiar, but her tone was very ordinary, treating Lady Meng no differently than she would any other person.

In these past few days, Lady Meng had also gotten used to the atmosphere of Tianxia Embroidery Shop, becoming much more relaxed upon arrival. Here, no one treated her as Mrs. Meng, but also did not treat her as someone from the declining Meng Family.

"What are you two talking about?" A smile spread across Lady Meng’s face when she saw Ye Shaohua.

The embroiderer naturally recognized Lady Meng as well, "Didn’t you give Miss Ye an incomplete book of embroidery techniques? Last night, Miss Ye deciphered it overnight, and now she is discussing the techniques from that book with me. She wants to teach us first, but these embroidery methods are somewhat intricate, and I don’t quite understand them yet."

Lady Meng was astonished.

She had only just given the incomplete book to Ye Shaohua not long ago; Ye Shaohua had already learned it?

However, having spent these days with Ye Shaohua, Lady Meng naturally knew of her unique gift in embroidery, especially in color matching, where no one could compare.

Seeing Lady Meng in such a state, the embroiderer put down her own work, went to the manager of the Embroidery Workshop, and got a newly embroidered handkerchief to show.

"Look at this." She carefully cradled the handkerchief, bringing it to Lady Meng for inspection.

Lady Meng looked down and saw a very simple embroidery piece.

Since it was a handkerchief, only an ink-green bamboo was embroidered in the middle, using a layered embroidery technique. Counting roughly, the bamboo, in all its sizes, used over twenty shades of color.

From white to deep black, the colors gradually lightened.

The edges were very neat, and the joints of the bamboo were distinct, giving a raised appearance. But upon touching it, it was found to be smooth and even, with no detectable raised areas.

On the handkerchief border was also an embroidered character "Yun" (cloud).

In fact, it’s difficult for embroidery characters to resemble the feeling of those written with a pen.

However, the characters that Ye Shaohua embroidered even showed the brief flourish of the brush strokes, almost as if they had been written with a pen, not stitched one by one.

Lady Meng had never seen such embroidery in her day.

"Ye Family’s embroidery used to be famous for its ’authenticity’; although I have never seen it, I have heard of it," said Lady Meng, holding the handkerchief and snapping out of her reverie after a good while, "Shaohua, you truly have an extraordinary talent, to be able to decipher the Ye Family’s needlework all on your own."

Ye Shaohua took the handkerchief, smiled, and said, "It’s alright, not very difficult. With a thorough study, one will eventually get it."

"Don’t overwork yourself. You didn’t get much sleep last night, did you?" Lady Meng said concerned, "You’re too frail. You must take good care of yourself."

"I know, it’s just once or twice."

Lady Meng looked at her indifferent expression and couldn’t help but sigh; with Ye Shaohua’s exquisite embroidery skills, who today could compete? Tianxia Embroidery Shop was set to be renowned all over; it was only a matter of time.

The Ye Family had truly misjudged this time; how would Ye De react if he discovered the daughter he had driven away had such great talent...

Meng Yanqiu, standing aside and listening to the conversation, felt his blood turn cold once more.

He still remembered the last words spoken by Ye Qingqing before she died, "Yanqiu, I deciphered the Ye Family’s needlework in one month and taught it to my sister. I never imagined that because of that, she would win the Emperor’s favor. Had I known, I would have made it clear to His Majesty that it was I who had first deciphered the technique..."

Now, it had been almost a month since he had given the upper part of the Ye Family’s embroidery techniques to Ye Qingqing, yet there had been no news of success from the Ye Family.

How had it now become something that Ye Shaohua had deciphered?
