Chapter 15 Embroidery
Beth Tian took the so-called braids and knew that they were used to make straw hats. They were mainly made of wheat stiles. The braids were pinched out to be wide and flat, braided into braids, coiled together and then sewn together to become a straw hat.

However, in general, the village just braids it and sells it directly in the market. Afterwards, the original owner does not remember how to process it. It should not be something the villagers would do.

Bei Sitian took it over and gestured with her hands. It is best to use fingernails for this thing, so that it will be more neat when pinched out. If the braids are neatly braided, the corresponding price will be higher, sometimes it may be one or two cents higher .

"It's only been two months since I didn't do anything, so I forgot it! What a memory!" Qin muttered, brought the braid over, and showed Bei Sitian a demonstration.

"Pinch it evenly, look at what you pinched before, you can't sell a piece of three flowers and two dates!" Qin said disgustedly.

Qin's braids can be sold for a handful of yuan, and even at the highest point, it was about one yuan, one yuan and two yuan, and Beth Tian's braids can be sold for three or four cents, which is a lot worse!
It was the first time for Bei Sitian to come into contact with this kind of thing, but probably the original owner pinched it a lot, and she still has the original memory in her mind. She got started very quickly, mainly because this thing is very simple, and she completely mastered it after a few edits.

After mastering it, Bei Sitian began to pinch it better, and the pinching became smoother. The long braid was dragged on the kang, and the change was obvious.

It's not difficult to pinch it neatly. Bei Sitian got used to inserting the stiles at the beginning. Each stile is only one inch long. One is used up to the end and another one needs to be plugged in. This position is not well connected, which affects the overall senses.

Mrs. Qin devoted herself to accepting the soles of the shoes, and did not go to see Bei Sitian. She had learned her skills a long time ago, and it was useless to teach her many times. Her hands were too clumsy, so she didn't expect much. She could sell a little. .

Beth Tian's displeasure at the front is mainly because she is familiar with the process of groping. She likes to use her brain when doing things. In the past, in the boudoir, apart from practicing calligraphy every day, she was good at embroidery, weaving, crochet, knitting, and embroidery. , It's not that kind of superficial meeting.

Among them, embroidery is the essence, and Bei Sitian's double-sided embroidery is famous in the whole capital, even the empress dowager praised it.

At that time, Bei Sitian hadn't met her master yet, so these were all the daily life in her boudoir. Naturally, she studied every day and added a lot of her own thoughts to the original basis. It is infinitely more difficult than pinching braids.

So the work in hand was very simple for Bei Sitian, until later, Bei Sitian lost interest.

But if she can make money, she will pinch it if she is not interested. Practice makes perfect. For this kind of unskilled work, Beth Tian is very fast, and can pinch off most of the wheat stiles in a dustpan in a while.

Qin Shi started to rub his eyes after accepting it for a while, rubbing and sucking at the same time, and then had to put down the soles of his shoes for a while before continuing.

Seeing this, Beth Tian said: "Mother, don't accept it, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Qin frowned, "Not much more."

Mrs. Qin is in a hurry. For the past two months, because Beth Tian has been bedridden, she has not been to the fair, and she has no time to work. This time, she is much better. Yang Wulang said that there will be no serious problems in another ten days or eight months. , she thought about going to the market.

There is nothing left at home, so I have to go to the market to buy some, and sell some work to get some pocket money. I may not be able to get much out of the work now, and since she is blind, the quality of the things she makes is not good. , Not to mention the appearance, the price is much lower.

Qin's heart is also depressed. In recent years, the work she has done has been sold several times. The family does not have much money, and there are always many disasters. It's really hard to say how much it can sell.

Mrs. Qin was in a bad mood, and after answering Bei Sitian, she glared at her, "If you are careful and stay away from that damned girl Lian Qiao, why would you lie on the bed for so long? Lie on the bed and wait to die!"

Bei Sitian is not annoyed either, Qin's current state is psychological depression, and she should vent it properly, anyway, a few words will not lose a piece of meat, she just goes in the left ear and out the right ear.

Beth Tian took the shoe upper from the dustpan. The pure black shoe upper and the white sole looked plain and unremarkable.

She found that all men and women in the village wear this kind of cloth shoes, and some of them have good conditions, and the shoes will be decorated or changed in color.

The sole is thick, breathable and comfortable to wear.

"Mom, do we have red and yellow wires at home?" Bessie asked.

"It's a little yellow line, what do you use it for?" Qin asked.

The family usually buys white and black threads for work, and basically does not buy threads of other colors. Although they are not expensive, they are useless and waste of money. A yellow gown, for mending that.

"where?"

Bei Sitian got off the kang, and listened to Qin's words and turned around in the cabinet.

The structure of the east room and the west room is the same. There is a large cabinet on the north wall, one third of the size of the wall, and it is placed against the wall.

The cabinet is not a vertical cabinet. There are two square ones, one meter in front, one in front, one in front, one in the other.

In front of the cabinet is a bench that can seat three or five people. In addition, there is a table against the wall in the east room. The bottom is glass and the top is dedicated to the God of Wealth.

In addition to these belongings, there is a large earth kang. Except for the glass on the table against the wall in the east room, even the windows are papered.

However, the windows of every household in the village are all papered, and there is a glass object that is relatively new.

Beth Tian rummaged through the cabinet, and found a pack of papers by the side. When she opened it, there were several colored threads inside, three yellow ones and one green one.

It's a pity that there is no red, otherwise the two flowers embroidered on the upper will look much better.

Bei Sitian took out the yellow thread, sat back on the kang, picked up the shoe upper and began to embroider with the oil lamp.

Qin Shi was shocked when she saw it, and reached out to snatch the upper from it.

"What are you doing! Don't harm me!"

Qin yelled, and a question came from the east room immediately. She said she was fine, and she did not forget to give Bei Sitian a look.

Bessian was also taken aback by her, and looked at her blankly.

"I still think what are you doing with the thread? When the time comes, you will harm the shoe upper, how can I sew it up!" Qin was angry.

Originally, there were only a few finished products, and if she harmed another one, it would be even less. After so many days and nights, it is so easy to get rid of these pairs!

She is so clumsy that she can't sell a few braids, let alone embroidery!
When Bei Sitian heard what she said, she smiled wryly. Indeed, the original owner's hands were very clumsy, but Mrs. Qin didn't wrong her. Although she never embroidered, Mrs. Qin said every time she pinched her braids, she wanted to do embroidery even more. Don't even think about it!
