Chapter 356 Learning Embroidery

The scenes at that time replayed in my mind, some happy, some sad.

When did he start wearing this bracelet? How come she didn't notice it? Did he start wearing it today? Why didn't he wear it before?

She raised the corners of her lips slightly, raised her head and looked at him gently, her cherry-like lips slightly parted: "I do."

Mo Xinglan had already prepared himself for her rejection, but unexpectedly she said she was willing.

At this moment, his heart was pounding and he was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

"I will preserve this Half-Life Pearl well and cherish it." She put the Half-Life Pearl away and placed it into her sea of ​​consciousness.

Mo Xinglan finally came to his senses, and without saying anything he pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly for a long time without letting go, as if he wanted to keep holding her like this forever.

The people standing below the altar were talking about it. Some were moved, some blessed, some envied, but there were also some who disagreed and were jealous.

"Ahem." Two light coughs sounded as a reminder. Fang Hao glanced at Wu Li beside him and motioned him to go forward and remind Mo Xinglan.

Wu Li glared at him, as if to say: Why don't you go? I'm old, I won't get involved in the affairs of you young people.

Before, the Lord knew that he did not approve of him and Chujiu being together, and not only was he severely reprimanded, but his old bones were almost broken.

Seeing that he was not going, Fang Hao hesitated for a while and was about to remind Mo Xinglan of the current situation when he heard Chujiu's voice.

"Um...Xingxing, you...just hug her enough. There are so many people around."

He slowly let her go.

……

After the succession ceremony, Mo Xinglan became busy.

He had to personally handle all the gifts that the demons sent him for the succession. He didn't want to handle this matter personally, but the previous demon lords had a rule that they should pay attention to the people's hearts. The gifts that the demons sent on ordinary days could be given to trusted people to handle, but on the day of the succession ceremony, the gifts that the demons sent had to be handled by the new demon lord himself.

There were many demons in the Demon Realm, and they all liked the new Demon Lord very much. Even the demons from Yuxin City had already lined up outside the Demon Palace's main hall.

This is also the only chance for the demons to enter the Demon Palace, but they can only queue up and cannot move around freely because there are guards on both sides of the queue in the Demon Palace. One side is for entering and the other side is for leaving.

Even though everything was in order, Mo Xinglan remained expressionless even while receiving gifts.

He really didn't like this noisy place, nor did he like this kind of large gift giving. He was already very annoyed, so how could he welcome him with a smile?

Of course, he was not the only one busy. Fang Hao, Wu Li, and some managers from various financial halls were also helping. Hua Hua, who had already stopped crying, was also among them.

Even so, he became numb to accepting gifts.

As soon as Chujiu returned to the Demon Palace, he told Mo Xinglan that he wanted to take care of his own business and disappeared.

Mo Xinglan didn't know what she was busy with, but he was really busy.

Not only do we have to accept gifts from the demons, but we also have to accept various booklets from various towns.

At this moment, Chujiu was followed by Shiyuan. After disguising himself, he sneaked out of the Demon Palace while everyone was too busy.

Looking at the long queue, Chujiu exclaimed: "Oh my god, is this queue so long?"

It's almost like a traffic jam on the highway.

Shi Yuan also sighed: "It seems that everyone admires the Lord."

"Yeah, I can feel it." Chujiu nodded.

After a long time, they came to an embroidery workshop.

Before that, the two of them went around the "Cute Pets Coming" store.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, I walked into the showroom.

Perhaps because today was a special day, everyone was busy delivering the succession gift to Mo Xinglan, and only a few embroiderers were left in the shop.

A beautiful woman who seemed to be in her twenties saw the guests coming and greeted them with a smile.

"Does this customer need custom-made clothes, or something else?"

Why did she feel that the two customers in front of her looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who they were for a while. But as a shop owner, she was too embarrassed to ask.

Chujiu thought for a moment and said, "I'm not here to order anything, I'm here to learn skills."

"Learning skills?" The proprietress was stunned for a moment and looked her up and down carefully.

She said she looked familiar, a human girl. But the one following her was a demon. The only one who dared to walk around the demon realm so recklessly and followed by demons was probably the woman that the Lord liked.

But why did she come to me to learn a skill? What did she want to learn? Embroidery?

Chujiu took in the expression on her face and guessed that she might have guessed his identity. But she didn't point it out, nor did she directly explain her identity. Instead, she said devoutly, "Beautiful sister, I want to learn needlework from you. I wonder if you will accept apprentices?"

The proprietress was stunned for a long time. The sound of "beautiful sister" kept circling in her mind and she felt a little dizzy.

"Beautiful sister?" Seeing her standing there without saying anything, Chujiu tilted his head.

The proprietress shook her head and coughed lightly.

Seeing her hesitate for a moment, he said, "Forget about accepting me as your disciple. If you want to learn, I can teach you. But it depends on your own talent. How well you can learn depends on you."

The woman that the master likes comes to her to learn skills. Should she be happy or what?

But this little human girl is so cute. The calls of "beautiful sister" touched her heart.

Seeing her agree, Chujiu's eyes lit up, and he was so excited that he almost stepped forward to hold the boss's hand: "Beautiful sister, you agreed? Don't worry, I will study hard."

She thought it would take a long time to negotiate, but she didn't expect him to agree so quickly.

The boss lady didn't expect that she would be so happy to get her consent. The more she looked at the little girl, the more pleasing she was to the eye and the cuter she became.

She couldn't help but soften her brows and smiled, "My last name is Zhou, and I'm the proprietress of this embroidery shop. You can just call me Madam Zhou."

"Mrs. Zhou? Then can I call you Sister Zhou? You look young and beautiful." Chujiu smiled with curved eyebrows.

Boss Zhou's heart melted at her words. He was warmed by the girl in front of him who smiled like a little sun, and his mood improved a lot.

Oh my, whose little girl is this? She is so cute. I really want to steal her away with a sack.

At this moment, Chujiu was thinking: Done. Sure enough, there is nothing that a cute person can't do. If there is, then sell more.

So after that, Chujiu began to learn needlework under the personal instruction of Boss Zhou.

Shi Yuan followed Chujiu without asking the reason, his mind a little confused.

Boss Zhou looks very kind, but he is very strict when it comes to teaching.

After seeing Chujiu's shabby needlework, I felt exhausted and felt that I had a heavy responsibility on my shoulders in the future.

Chujiu spent the whole afternoon studying hard and pricked her hands several times, which made Shiyuan and Boss Zhou tremble with fear. But she still studied unyieldingly.

Thanks to her serious study spirit, she gained a lot. She was finally able to sew an ugly cloth bag, and the embroidery on it was as ugly as it could be.

As it was getting dark, Chujiu was about to leave when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a bead strung on a tassel around Boss Zhou's waist.

Psychic beads!
