Reborn 1980, Mountains Have Spirits, I Have Fields

Chapter 154 Lace
When we arrived at Suxiu Street, Jin Yuanbao refused to stay in his bag.Stretch out your head and paws, look left and right.

"There are a lot of embroidery, but there are not many with aura."

Ling Mei held it tightly in her arms: "Here are all foreign trade goods, there must be some high-quality goods, and indeed there are not many."

Seeing Lingmei again, Wu Nanyin said happily, "Miss Xiao, you are here again." She bent down towards Xiao Jin, "Ah, Xiao Jin is getting cuter and cuter!"

Ling Mei followed her into the room and sat down, and let Xiao Jin go for a walk to relax her muscles.

So the clerks and customers saw a fat, round-faced, short-legged golden retriever kitten strolling in the store with a high spirit.

With the intention of stealing art, it jumped onto the table, sat down solemnly, and stared at the two embroiderers working intently.

Xiuniang's work today is different from usual.

An embroiderer held a silver needle and kept poking it on a piece of white cloth, threading it back and forth.Xiao Jin didn't understand it for a long time, tilted his head in doubt, and looked at another embroiderer.

Another embroiderer is even more powerful.There are dozens of small mallets on the embroidery stand, and she can hold eight of them in one hand.I don't know how to do it, and the patterns on the base cloth are woven layer by layer.

Xiao Jin was stunned: What kind of magical operation is this?

Ling Mei couldn't help but stare, and asked the boss: "Sister Wu, what the two embroiderers are doing today is lace?"

Xiu Niang clapped her hands lightly, and said pleasantly, "You still have sharp eyes."

She introduced: "The needles are used to poke thousands of strands of silk from Xiaoshan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The small sticks are used to weave stick lace from Shandong. In fact, lace and embroidery have the same effect. Not only that, our embroiderer can also embroider Lace, the embroidered lace is beautiful."

Ling Mei couldn't help nodding.Seeing Xiaojin's full of interest, he couldn't help but ask: "I want to buy some lace? If there are tools for weaving lace, I would also like to get two sets. The elders of my family are very interested in these things."

Wu Nanyin smiled and said: "There are ready-made laces. They are all made of cotton and real silk. I will pick out some for you. As for the tools, our embroiderer also has a few new sets. You can use them."

Ling Mei smiled and said, "Thank you very much."

Looking at dozens of laces, Lingmei quickly had her own views on the two styles of lace.

Wanfu lace from Jiangsu and Zhejiang is simple and elegant, while Bangchui lace from Shandong has more complicated patterns.As for the embroidered lace, which is common in European and American wedding dresses, it is dreamlike and beautiful.It takes too much workmanship to think about it, so the embroidery lace here is all small pieces.

Ling Mei gradually picked three pieces according to the complexity of the patterns.

Xiaojin sat on Lingmei's lap and stared at Lace's curious and excited face.

Boss Wu liked Xiao Jin's studious appearance very much: "Miss Xiao, look at Xiao Jin's serious and studious appearance!"

Lingmei smiled: "Xiao Jin is really studious."

Wu Nanyin teased Xiao Jin for a while before remembering to ask: "Miss Xiao, are your friends satisfied with the embroidery from last time?"

"Very satisfied." Ling Mei said, "I'm here to buy embroidery from you again."

"Are you going to buy again? Then tell me about your request this time."

"This time it's for a male elder. He has a successful career and dominates one side. Help me think about it, what kind of embroidery is suitable for me?"

Wu Nanyin looked at Ling Mei's gaze changed: No wonder the little girl is so noble, so she has such a powerful elder!

She thought for a while and then said: "Horses, eagles, and scenery of mountains and rivers are fine. But I don't have many goods here, only Zhang Jun's horse embroidery."

Ling Mei nodded and said, "Let me have a look."

After a while, an embroidered piece of a brown galloping horse was spread out beside Lingmei.

Jin Yuanbao was a little reluctant: "It's okay."

Wu Nanyin said: "Animals are more difficult to embroider than flowers. This embroidery is indeed average in other aspects, but look at the eyes of the horse, they are vivid."

Indeed, the bright horse eyes are unforgettable.Lingmei and Wu Nanyin bargained for a while, and finally bought it at a price of 500 yuan.

Bringing Xiao Jin back to the hotel, everyone thought that Ling Mei had gone out and bought a pet.The hotel attendant also took the initiative to give her a set of combs for combing hair.

"What a beautiful cat." The waiter greeted Xiao Jin, "Welcome to our hotel."

Xiao Jin nodded in satisfaction, and meowed in response.

So, Ling Mei took the elevator under the envious eyes of the hall.

Back in the space, Jin Yuanbao couldn't wait to disassemble the horse embroidery.

Lingmei drew and drew on the side. This picture of a horse is too ordinary, and she needs more special creativity to do it.

In one day, Jin Yuanbao became familiar with the stitches of the horse embroidery.The horse it embroidered the next day was better than the original.

Lingmei handed it a picture: "Xiao Jin, come on, embroider according to this picture."

Jin Yuanbao couldn't see it: "What are you drawing! It's so ugly."

A half-faced horse's face was revealed in a black and smeared picture.

Lingmei explained: "As you can see, the overall draft is black, and only the head of the horse is exposed, and it is illuminated by the sun. So the light and shade of the sun should be embroidered very, very carefully on the horse's face, Xiao Jin, The success or failure of this embroidery lies in the change of light and shadow."

Jin Yuanbao spoke poisonously: "You speak better than you draw."

Ling Mei ignored its taunt, and smiled: "Xiao Jin, there is no picture of four seasons of flowers to trace this time, you have to rely on your own imagination to draw the sketch. Are you sure?"

Xiao Jin exclaimed: "I have accompanied the Lord Mountain God for tens of thousands of years, and traveled around the world with her. I am used to watching the sun rise and set, and everything grows. Even if I can't draw a manuscript, I still know how to embroider!"

Ling Mei clapped her hands: "Good job!"

After Lingmei and it color-matched and selected the needle and thread, Jin Yuanbao started its creation with great interest.

No matter how fine a small piece of flower embroidery is, Xiaojin can finish it in a few hours.But the light changes in the picture of the horse are too delicate, and it took three days to embroider it.

Ling Mei hugged Xiao Jin and kissed again and again: "Xiao Jin, you have helped me a lot. Come on, I'll take you out to play!"

The place where Lingmei took Xiaojin to play was He Zhai.

He Liuye had long wanted to see the uniqueness of this girl who Tan Yueqiu was full of praise for. When he heard that she wanted to visit her, he naturally agreed not to mention it.

As a young man whom Yueqiu appreciates, He Liuye ordered someone to decorate a garden, and booked afternoon tea at the Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong in advance.Secretary Jin was secretly surprised: Who is Xiao Lingmei?How could Master Liu be so attentive?

When Xie Genbao, Lingmei and Xiaojin came, they couldn't help but linger when they saw the dreamlike beauty of the garden full of flowers.

He Guhong, who stood in front of the balcony on the second floor and observed them, his eyes gradually sank.

It is also unclear whether it is the presence of a beautiful girl that makes the garden a fairyland on earth, or whether his garden looks like a fairy.His eyes flickered slightly, causing Mei's figure and face to change into a beautiful and lively girl in a lace dress——Yue Qiu...

He Liuye's heart was filled with infinite love.

"Sixth Master, Sixth Master?" Secretary Jin called him from the side, "The guests have arrived."

Sixth Master withdrew his chaotic thoughts and sighed slightly.

"Go down."

"The Sixth Master is here." Xie Genbao hastily greeted him, "Take the liberty to bother the Sixth Master. Ling Mei, this is the well-known Sixth Master He in Guangdong and Guangxi."

Ling Mei said neither humble nor overbearing: "Ling Mei thanked Liu Ye for taking care of the shop. Without your help, our shop would not be able to open in Guangzhou."

He Guhong smiled, and wanted to ask her about Yueqiu's recent situation, but thinking of Yueqiu's instructions, he could only put his concern for the old friend back in his heart.

"I didn't expect Miss Xiao to be so young and capable. The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead." He greeted Ling Meimo cautiously, "Come, drink tea and have some snacks." He glanced at the kitten in her arms, smiled slightly, and ordered The housekeeper took another beautiful small bowl for Xiao Jin to use.

Xiao Jin is very satisfied with this.

Seeing that there was an exquisite strawberry cake among the desserts on the table, Lingmei couldn't help but think of Aunt Tan, and said with a smile, "There are still strawberries in this season?"

Seeing that she picked strawberry cake, He Guhong even liked it the same as Yueqiu, and his heart softened.Seeing her frowning slightly, she couldn't help asking: "Why, isn't it delicious?"

Lingmei smiled: "It tastes good. It's just not as good as the strawberry cake made by an elder friend of mine."

She can actually eat the strawberry cake made by Yueqiu himself? !
He Guhong was envious.

Ling Mei changed the subject: "This time I'm visiting Liu Ye, I can't prepare any good gifts in a hurry, please don't be disgusted with Liu Ye."

As he spoke, Xie Genbao handed over a picture frame covered with red silk.
