The shadow of the past and the present arrives

Chapter 131

The crew of "Sleeves in the West Window" barely scraped together the funds. Although Xie Hou was quite strict with the actors in terms of diet, he was extraordinarily generous when it came to scene props.

An embroidery building was used in the play, and it was Gu Xixiu who went to the boudoir. Xie Hou looked at it for a long time but couldn’t find a small building that he liked, so the scene in it was dragged on until some time ago, Xie Hou accompanied Bai Sheng to borrow Drinking away his worries, he took a shortcut to go home, and fell in love at first sight with a crumbling small building.

Thank you, with a wave of your hand, I took a picture here!

After several inquiries, I found out that this small building belongs to an old man. This small building has a history of more than 100 years, and the old man no longer lives here. After asking a lot of people, I found out the old man's residence. , Xie Hou went to visit in person, sincerely, I hope I can lend this small building to them for a few days to shoot, and the things inside will never be damaged.

Seeing Xie Hou's sincere attitude, the old man did not make things difficult, and even confiscated his rent.

With the permission of the old man, the film crew was able to move in. It has not been lived in for decades, it is full of dust, cobwebs, and most of the furniture is useless.

The crew had no choice but to start a general cleaning, but they tried to keep the original state inside.

The whole small building is made of wood and cannot be used for a long time. The outside is wrapped with a layer of green vines, full of greenery. Looking from the window, you can also see the swing frame in the courtyard.

There is a big screen in the room, and I don't know what kind of wood it is. The dragon and phoenix on it are extremely agile, and there is no damage at all. There is a large embroidery stand, the silk cloth on it has been completely decayed, and the silk thread has a little more color left. The carved bronze mirror is placed on the dressing table. The jewelry box is empty, and the patterns on it are indeed extremely fine.

Song Weimu fell in love with this small building almost at the first glance, wandering around the house several times, she is now wearing a cheongsam bought with a lot of money, the style of the Republic of China, with delicate buttons extending from the neck, The plain fabric is embroidered with some flowers and plants, which is simple and elegant. Because of the continuous pondering of the script, I specially checked a lot of information about the Republic of China, and there is a sense of elegance in every gesture.

Now the furnishings are all based on the customs of the Republic of China. Sitting by the embroidery frame is really like a lady who came out of such a chaotic era.

Duan Ershao came here specially to visit the class today. After getting along for so long, he has already become very familiar with Song Weimu's words and deeds. It can be seen that Song Weimu likes this place very much, so he made up his mind right away, whether to buy it as a gift Give it to Song Weimu, thinking about going to Xie Hou's place to inquire after a while, wondering if the old man is willing to sell it.

While speaking, Song Weimu saw that Song Weimu was looking up at the big screen. There were six screens in total, with patterns of dragons and phoenixes running through it. On the top and bottom, there were blooming peonies. The dowry brought by the bride's family."

Moreover, the bride’s family must be well-to-do. From the dragon and phoenix carved on it, it can be seen that she must be a highly skilled old craftsman. The implication is that the dragon and the phoenix bring prosperity. Although the wood is not the best, it can be regarded as good now. Treasures.

In ancient times, when marrying a daughter, the best craftsmen had to be invited to carve a bed carefully, and every piece of furniture had to be carefully crafted. Times have changed, and I am afraid that no one is willing to buy a dowry for themselves now.

Suddenly I felt a little melancholy.

This kind of melancholy was brought into it naturally when filming.

The small and exquisite embroidered building is green on the outside, and houses all the things of the daughter's house inside. It is antique. Gu Xixiu, who has just returned to China, sits by the window and looks out. A plate of maids carefully pack her luggage. Luxurious long skirts are extremely precious in the eyes of the little girl. It is not an ordinary person who can afford such clothes. Every piece is carefully hung up in the closet.

There was a pair of semi-finished products on the embroidery stand, and on it was a tulip that was almost half-embroidered, and she lay on it and completed it stitch by stitch.

No one thought that Song Weimu could really embroider, and he seemed to be able to embroider, and there was no sense of disobedience in threading needles.

Duan Ershao was also dumbfounded. In Duan Ershao's consciousness, such an ancient thing can only be seen in museums. Who knows that he saw it with his own eyes today.

Xie Hou's eyes widened a little, the girls now know how to do cross-stitch is pretty good, he just asked Song Weimu to embroider it intentionally, but he didn't expect that she would actually be able to embroider like this.

This scene was originally about Gu Xixiu embroidering things in front of the embroidery frame, and Wen Ruliang hoped to see his fiancée below.

In the extremely short shot, Xie Hou suddenly moved, signaling the camera to continue shooting. The camera zoomed in, and the beautiful woman with her bowed head gradually became clear.
