peasant shrew

Chapter 32

"Yue Niang, what shall we embroider next?" Sister-in-law Mei put the money into a small bag and didn't leave her hand, she couldn't wait to embroider another pair.If this continues, the cost of the son's final exam will be covered, and the man in the family will not have to go to the town to carry big bags.They can do some small business by themselves, even if they can't open a shop, they can set up a stall.

Lin Yueniang smiled and thought for a moment, "Sister-in-law, let's stop for a while. The shopkeeper Mei came to us the other time. She begged us to supply the goods, so the price will naturally be high. But if you embroider too frequently , even the best things are not so rare.”

After all, embroidery methods are not uncommon, and compared to the legendary double-sided embroidery and palace embroidery, it does not have any advantages.As for the fancy graphics, although dazzling can stand out in this backcountry, it is fresh and rare.If the embroidery workshop randomly picks out a piece of this kind of complicated pattern, mixed colors but magnificent embroidery, then I won't be able to save money in this way in the future.

Furthermore, the embroidered objects on ordinary embroidered cloth were quickly imitated. It took not a short period of a month. The birthday picture of the pine and crane in the grass that I sold to the embroidery workshop has been imitated by many people. .Although the painting is not necessarily accurate, it also made Lin Yueniang clearly aware that this kind of thing is too imitated, and it is difficult to have her own uniqueness.

Now that the embroidery shop can offer such a high price, one reason is to win over itself, and the other reason is that those patterns are rare.But once the streets are full, and my own embroidery samples can't bring more benefits to the embroidery workshop than other places, the shopkeeper Mei will probably crush the price to death.

This is what Lin Yueniang doesn't want to see, so she has to find a way carefully.

Before leaving the town, Lin Yueniang had a flash of light in her mind, and an idea popped up suddenly.She wanted to be the one who could do it, and immediately took Sister-in-law Mei back to the embroidery workshop, ignoring the surprise of the shopkeeper and the staff, and directly bought two feet of Gesha.In fact, Gesha is light and breathable, and it is also the first choice for wealthy people to make clothes in summer, but farmers never use it.The fact that it is not easy to work is enough to stop people who plan to eat in the soil all day long, not to mention that the price is much more expensive than ordinary coarse cloth.It costs more than 60 Wen a foot.

She used to buy fine cotton thread, but now she has replaced it with more expensive silk embroidery thread.

Could it be that this daughter-in-law is also extravagant?I don't know what to do with my money!The shopkeeper shook his head, such a narrow-minded daughter-in-law is not a blessing.

Lin Yueniang didn't care what the shopkeeper thought, she remembered the kind of embroidery on soft silk and organza that was as thin as twelve strands that she had seen in her previous life.She once saw it at the Embroidery Appreciation Expo. The embroidery is graceful, but it is hard to put it down.At that time, she was obviously a female man, and she spent two months' salary in one breath to buy those embroidered handkerchiefs and small screens.

Now in this place, whether she is in the fair or in the embroidery workshop, she has never seen that kind of light and elegant gauze embroidery.

That is because she was worried that it would be too difficult to succeed, so she only bought relatively cheap Ge yarn instead of Luo yarn woven from silk.

After returning to Lijia Village, Lin Yueniang followed Mrs. Mei to her house, and then explained her plan in detail.Mrs. Mei was also a little unsure if she could embroider such thin embroidery. She had never heard of or thought of dividing a piece of embroidery thread into one-fourth or one-sixth of thin embroidery thread. passed.

The thread is much thinner than a hair, even if it has never been used, Mrs. Mei can imagine how difficult it is.As long as the force is stronger, the thread will break, but if it is loose, the embroidered object cannot be attached to the cloth.

"Sister-in-law, it's not urgent. The Gesha and embroidery thread I bought today are just for practice. You can try it casually and see if you can handle it well. If you can't do it, it doesn't matter. I'll think about it later. Something else." Naturally, Lin Yueniang didn't feel sorry for this bit of needlework, and even if it was done, she didn't think about asking Mrs. Mei to embroider such a rare pattern, at most she would embroider some butterflies on the silk gauze used to make kang screens such patterns.If it doesn't work out, there is no loss. In the future, she will find an embroiderer with finer embroidery.

Knowing that Lin Yueniang's temperament will not be difficult for others, so Mei's sister-in-law is not worried about the other party's displeasure, she is only embarrassed because she feels that she can't do this.Now after hearing Yueniang's words, she thought of giving it a try.

She is convinced that Lin Yueniang can make money, as long as she follows Yueniang, she will not worry about the family's poor life.

After returning to Li's house, Lin Yueniang saw Mrs. Qian gloating and leaning against the door of the main courtyard, while the eldest grandson of Li's family came out of the house and shouted, "Auntie, grandpa and grandma are in the house and said something happened." Tell you."

After finishing speaking, he was kicked by Mrs. Qian, he made a face, and ran away in a hurry.

"Sister-in-law, the whole family is waiting for you." Qian said something strangely, turned around and opened the curtain and entered the room.
