Chapter 397 Two experts in embroidery
However, no matter how confused Hu Zhuangtou was in his heart, it could not change Chen Dongyue's principle of raising small animals.
That is: any small animal with a name cannot be eaten. Any little animal without a name can be made delicious.
Chen Dongyue didn't know why so many people didn't understand such a simple and pure truth.
...........
People from Qingshan Village are gradually getting on the right track this May.
Of course, their lives were not derailed much before May.
On the last day of the month, Chen Dongyue and Teacher You met again with the help of two old Taoist priests as agreed.
"Last time, I asked that corrupt official Sun for one hundred shi of food, but didn't he agree? The next day, Mrs. Sun donated two hundred shi of food to Ci'an Hall in the name of the Sun family.
You don’t even know that after Corrupt Sun learned about this, the expression on his face changed seven or eight times in one second, which was even worse than the facial expressions in Sichuan Opera! !
Mrs. Sun also told Corrupt Sun in front of me that if I need anything in the future, the government office had better pay more diligently, otherwise Mrs. Sun will donate food to Ci'an Tang from home! "
After saying that, Chen Dongyue took a big mouthful of the ice cream Xiaoyou brought for her, and then smiled with satisfaction.
Xiao You was nibbling on the sweet-scented osmanthus and hibiscus cake that Chen Dongyue brought her, and laughed together, "Hahahahaha, Mrs. Sun is so domineering! The rich woman has the confidence after all.
By the way, how's your job as an ancient urban management officer going? Were the ancient urban management officials particularly annoying? "
Chen Dongyue shook her head, "No, no, no, you don't even know who I am! I, Director Chen, first listen to advice, secondly know how to adapt, and thirdly..."
"What? Say it quickly." When Xiaoyou saw Chen Dongyue showing off, he slapped her thigh.
"Wow, you have such strong legs, please touch them twice."
As expected of half-sisters, both of them really like to do things to others.
The two laughed for a while before getting the topic back on track.
"What's third? Tell me quickly." Xiaoyou took a bite of Chen Dongyue's ice cream.
Chen Dongyue finished Xiaoyou's remaining half of the hibiscus cake, and then said: "The third thing is~~~~I don't go to the market to patrol, who hates me? Hahahaha~~~"
I was really amused by my own wit.
Xiaoyou laughed and slapped Chen Dongyue's arm, scolding her for being so stupid.
But after the laughter, Teacher You, who has a strong sense of justice, began to do ideological work for Chen Dongyue.
"As the leader of the inspection department, you have to lead by example. How can you be so passive and slow in your work?!"
"I just didn't go on patrol, so why was I slacking off?"
Chen Dongyue explained: "I usually play the role of a passerby, walking around the streets and alleys of Liaocheng, doing private interviews incognito, you know? Just like an aunt.
Then if you see any shops with illegal stalls or markets with random stalls, just write it down and go back and ask someone to deal with it.
The current handling of our inspection department also pursues a humane approach.
If there are stall owners littering the market and we catch them, we won't fine them for the first time. We just ask them to clean up the market.
For those who set up stalls indiscriminately, the first offender will have two small flags placed on the merchant's back to promote the need to protect the appearance of the city and pay attention to hygiene~~~~~
Let me tell you, with the continuous efforts of our inspection department, now the beggars in our city no longer spit.
If a wild dog poops anywhere, it will be driven out three miles away! "
Xiaoyou was very happy when she heard this. She praised Chen Dongyue as a real talent.
Being a physical education teacher was a waste of her talent. She should have applied for the job at the urban management brigade.
The two people at the end were chatting happily, but the two old men at the other end suddenly started to quarrel.
Wuyou scolded Wuyou, "Are your five fingers made of mallets? Huh?!
I have taught you so many times that the second stitch must be passed through the middle of the first stitch.
Each stitch cannot exceed the distance between two embroidery threads! !
Don't you have a magnifying glass on the bridge of your nose? Why is it crooked when you poke it here and there?
How can you teach others when you go back? I'm afraid this split mountain embroidery will be ruined in your hands! ! "
Wushuo, whose eyes almost turned into fighting cocks, couldn't bear it anymore.
He took off his reading glasses in one click, and then squirted at Wuyou, "You said nicely, you are teaching me, but you also let me split the thread, let me match the color, and twist the thread. Let me twist it myself, you are just talking about this embroidery method!!
Come on, come on, you are great, come and embroider! ! I don’t believe it anymore, your second needle can be inserted right in the middle of the first needle! ! Come on, come on! "
"W-what am I doing here?" Wuyou felt a little guilty and leaned back, "This embroidery technique has not been lost here. There are many embroidery ladies here who know this embroidery technique!
It’s your place that needs to be passed down, so you should study hard! Otherwise, otherwise...be careful that Xiaoyou doesn't buy you any bones! "
"I can't get a skeleton, and you can't even think about inlaying gold with the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty! I haven't learned yet~~~~~ Then I don't want any skeleton, I just have an electric cart."
The two old men were quarreling over embroidery. This scene seemed as inconsistent as it seemed.
Chen Dongyue and Xiao You watched the old man quarrel happily on the sidelines, neither wanting to go up to break up the fight.
After Master Wushu finished speaking, he straightened his legs that were sitting cross-legged on the ground and wanted to stand up.
As a result, my legs were numb and I couldn't even move, let alone stand up.
Wuyou, who often crossed his legs, looked at his brother's appearance and knew that his legs were numb, so he said it would be too late, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Wuyou's legs.
Wuhuang was knocked over and screamed.
Wuyou was still cursing, "I told you to lose face, call you clumsy and not humble, I'll give you enough numbness today!"
Chen Dongyue and Xiaoyou looked at each other silently, and then walked further away in a tacit understanding~~~~
.............
Before the separation, Wuyou was able to learn a lot of the new embroidery techniques taught by Wuyou.
Xiaoyou told Chen Dongyue that next month their Qingshan Handicraft was invited by the Bureau of Culture and Tourism to hold a Hanfu show with several other Hanfu stores.
For the sake of the honor of Qingshan's handiwork, Xiaoyou asked Chen Dongyue to be more conscious and prepare more clothes that would dazzle the audience.
Let’s first briefly decide on five sets for men and ten sets for women.
Chen Dongyue cursed.
But after leaving the space, she went directly to the embroidery workshop and asked Mrs. You to make a super luxurious first-grade imperial uniform.
"...Master, it's not allowed for you to wear a seventh-grade official body and a first-grade official uniform. If you wear it on the street, you will be arrested."
Madam You kindly reminded Chen Dongyue.
Chen Dongyue shook her head and said: "It's not me who wants it, it's our financial sponsor. Will you do it?"
"Oh~~~~" Mrs. You suddenly realized.
It turns out that the financial backer behind the club actually has a rank?
Isn't a first-grade husband and a first-grade official? !
No wonder! ! !
At the beginning, there was a disaster in Nanzhou and Liaozhou, and everyone didn't even have money to buy food, but the sponsors still purchased embroidery in large quantities.
It turns out that people really don’t need to worry about food and drink.
"Madam You?" Chen Dongyue saw Madam You stunned and called her again.
Madam You came back to her senses, "Huh? The first-grade imperial uniforms are all made in-house, and are not something that ordinary embroidery ladies can do."
"I'm not asking you if you can do it. I'm asking you if you can do it." Chen Dongyue asked again.
"If you do it... it's not impossible. When I was an apprentice, I worked with an old embroiderer who came from the Shangfu Bureau. She actually told us about the patterns and styles of imperial uniforms.
It's just that I haven't done it before, so I don't know if it's right..."
"Where is the old embroiderer now?" Chen Dongyue asked.
"In the Heavenly Palace, or in the Underworld~~~" Madam You's answer was quite rigorous.
Chen Dongyue even thought for a moment whether she could let Wuyou summon a soul or something.
Fortunately, she still retains a trace of reason,
"In this way, you first bring a skilled embroiderer to make a few sets of formal attires worn by our people. This imperial uniform...
I'll ask someone to help me find a way to find an embroiderer from the palace. Then you can learn from her. "
"That's okay," Lady You nodded, and suddenly looked up at Chen Dongyue, with a hint of worry in her eyes, "but we are making imperial uniforms, and as long as we don't tell anyone, it'll be fine. Just the lady wearing the clothes... .....Does it really not matter?”
"Well, it doesn't matter." Chen Dongyue nodded affirmatively, "Actually, you don't have to wear imperial edicts. Dragon robes and phoenix robes are also acceptable."
"...Master, do you want to listen to what is being said?" Madam You tilted her head and looked at Chen Dongyue.
Chen Dongyue laughed "haha" twice, then waved her hand and told Mrs. You to continue busy. She would leave first if she had anything else to do.
Doesn’t Xiaoyou want to be sharp for the whole audience? If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't buy a dragon robe, Chen Dongyue would actually want to get one for her.
