Rebirth 1988 Farming and Raising Children

Chapter 111 Apprenticeship
Jiang Ancheng sat on the bench, picked up a needle and thread, carefully stringed together three yellow horned orchids of similar size, and placed them delicately on a piece of absorbent red cloth.

Chen Yufei picked up a bunch and sniffed them, "Brother, you want to sell them together, how long will we have to sell them."

Jiang Ancheng laughed and said: "No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Besides, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's cheaper to sell. Three strings for ten cents. If you calculate it carefully, it's more profitable than other flowers."

Chen Yufei thought about it, this is the reason.

If someone sees that their yellow horned orchids are easy to sell, they may also find them for wholesale.

In addition to their village, there are many other villages that plant yellow horned orchids for soaking in wine to repel mosquitoes. If they are sold well, they can also harvest yellow horned orchids.

The stalk of the yellow-horned orchid is very small, and the needle selected must be thinner and harder to penetrate.

Chen Yufei picked up the needle and thread, and threaded through two yellow horned orchids in a row.

The flower stalk is broken, and it will affect the appearance if it passes directly through the petals.

Jiang Ancheng sighed, "Your hand is not suitable for this job, let Zeng Yilin do it instead, and go and tidy up Jasmine and put it in the bucket."

Chen Yufei chuckled, "Okay." Then he called to Zeng Yilin: "Brother Niu called you."

Zeng Yilin came over carelessly, Jiang Ancheng signaled him to sit down quickly with his eyes, "Shall I string jasmine flowers together?"

Zeng Yilin nodded, reacted for a while and asked again: "Will you wear it horizontally or vertically?"

Wearing it horizontally, a string of jasmine bracelets is ready without a few jasmine flowers.

If you wear it vertically, you will need more Jasmine, although it should look better.

Jiang Ancheng smiled and said, "Wear it vertically."

"it is good."

Mrs. Wei was helped by Mr. Wei to sit down in front of them, seeing them wearing jasmine, she smiled softly, "I will give you Jasmine, and I hope you will never leave."

"You guys can tie this knot like this, and it's easy to put on and take off."

As the inheritor of Suzhou embroidery, Mrs. Wei has superb needlework skills. With a little guidance from her, the jasmine bracelet and the yellow horned orchid have unique hanging buckles.

The grade has suddenly been raised, it doesn't seem like it was perfunctorily strung together.

Jiang Ancheng was full of praise for Mrs. Wei, "Mrs. Wei's craftsmanship is really alive." He also said: "Universities should invite you to be a teacher."

Mrs. Wei smiled and shook her head, "You are too good at complimenting others."

The current university is not the school of the past. Besides, she has no diploma, so how can she become a university teacher.

As soon as the words fell, a girl with fluttering long hair appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

Accompanying him was Shao Xuebao with an earnest face.

Shao Xuebao was forced by Shao's father to take over the production of wrapping paper. When he first got started, he was very busy. If Zhu Xiuyu hadn't taken the initiative to find him, he would still be nesting in the factory to improve the product.

When Zhu Xiuyu came, he took a look at the situation of his factory, and drew more than a dozen sketches, all kinds of fashionable paper bags, which solved his urgent needs in one go.

Of course, Zhu Xiuyu didn't help in vain. She offered to help Shao Xuebao because she wanted Shao Xuebao to bring her to Teacher Wei.

When Shao Xuebao bought the embroidery work from Mrs. Wei and delivered it to her, she had a strong will to learn Suzhou embroidery.

This is the precious culture of their Huaguo, and she wants the whole world to know that their Huaguo still has such excellent embroidery skills.

If you help Shao Xuebao in advance, it is considered as a settlement between the two, and there is no debt to each other.

Zhu Xiuyu is such a transparent, cold and arrogant girl.

Shao Xuebao was still foolish enough to think that Zhu Xiuyu would definitely look up to him after going through this experience, so he said positively to Teacher Wei, "Auntie, do you accept apprentices? My daughter"

"My friend wants to learn embroidery from you, is it convenient for you?"

Zhu Xiuyu knows that traditional craftsmen are very particular about their apprentices' character, patience, eyesight and so on.

She smiled politely at Teacher Wei, "Hello, I have admired your demeanor for a long time, my name is Zhu Xiuyu."

Standing behind Jiang Ancheng, Chen Yufei couldn't take his eyes off Zhu Xiuyu.

"Oh my god, the Feng Shui in the city is also great!" These women are getting prettier each time.

This one in front of him, if he can become a star, he will definitely become popular and have many, many fans.

But he actually came to Mrs. Wei to learn embroidery.

Quite virtuous.

Mrs. Wei's eyes showed surprise. Young people in this era are rarely able to calm down and practice embroidery.

She looked at Zhu Xiuyu, saw Zhu Xiuyu's serious face, and said, "You come in with me first, let's have a chat first."

"Ah."

Seeing that Mrs. Wei's legs and feet were inconvenient, Zhu Xiuyu stepped forward to support Mrs. Wei.

The two entered the house, but no one followed and disturbed.

Shao Xuebao wanted to please Master Wei for Zhu Xiuyu, and even ran around Master Wei to help him dry the radishes.

After being dismissed by Master Wei, he came to Jiang Ancheng and whispered to Jiang Ancheng and Chen Yufei: "You have a good relationship with Auntie, remember to give my future wife a good word."

Chen Yufei squeezed his eyes excitedly, "It's done?"

Shao Xuebao smirked, "Not yet, I guess it will be soon."

Chen Yufei patted his chest immediately and said: "Master's wife is great, if you want to learn, you will definitely be able to teach, don't worry."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Jiang Ancheng had consumed a lot of wrapping paper in the past two days, and he was planning to buy some, so he asked, "Master, does your paper factory also do retail sales?"

Shao Xuebao nodded, "Retail, there is a special corresponding shop." Then he asked: "Why, do you need wrapping paper? I'll send someone to bring some to you directly." He said flatteredly: "Our Xiuyu can't do it. Yes, you helped me design a lot of beautiful patterns of wrapping paper, which look as good as wrapping flowers."

Jiang Ancheng smiled and said, "I don't want much, so don't bother you to send it to me, I just go get it myself."

"Okay, I'll write you the address later, tell me my name, and I'll give you a [-]% discount."

Chen Yufei happily said: "Master, you are too kind, why don't you stay with us for lunch today?"

Jiang Ancheng also pointed to the pheasant in the back, "I caught it on the mountain yesterday, stewed some mushrooms in it, it's very tight."

You can't get rich if you sell it, it's better to entertain guests.

Shao Xuebao thought of the pot of fried rice with dried mushrooms that Jiang Ancheng cooked last time, and he still couldn't get enough of it.

If you want to have a bowl of mushroom chicken soup that is so fresh that you lose your teeth, it will be even more delicious.

But he came with Zhu Xiuyu today, he looked into the back room from the corner of his eye, shook his head and said, "Forget about it today, let's do it another day."

Even if Zhu Xiuyu can learn Su embroidery with Teacher Wei's permission, it's not good to stay here for dinner on the first day.

Chen Yufei understood his thoughts in seconds, and laughed straight: "OK, then wait for your next visit, and we will treat you to a meal alone."

Shao Xuebao regarded the two of them as friends, and he was not polite, he laughed and said, "Success, I will make a note of it, this meal will definitely be a mess."
