Chapter 219 Choice
On the second day of junior high school, Jiang Rong'an and Gu Qingya brought the things they had prepared to pay New Year's greetings to Zhu's family and Fang's family.

The Xu family has no daughter, only one son, and the grandchildren are not yet married, so the second day of junior high school is not very lively, but this year is an exception, Jiang Rong'an and Gu Qingya are here.

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year, come in, come in, it's cold outside." Zhu Shi welcomed people into the door, entered the hall, the doors and windows were closed, there was a brazier burning inside, and there were earth dragons. It was very warm, and everyone wore light clothes .

Taking off the outermost cloak, Gu Qingya drank a cup of tea, feeling warm all over.

Because she is already a married woman, the elders in the family no longer need to give red envelopes, but in turn, give red envelopes to the family members.

Jiang Rong'an and Gu Qingya have discussed it, Fang's has it, Xu's, and Zhu's two children, although Zhu Shi and his wife don't have red envelopes, but having gifts is not considered a breach of etiquette.

"Niece and son-in-law, come here, we are playing leaf cards, and we are short of people." After chatting, Zhu Shi pulled Jiang Rongan away, and Gu Qingya sat by the side chatting with the two old people.

Coincidentally, the two old men happened to talk about dyeing. It was a raw material they bought recently, and they were considering whether the dyed color should be dark or light.

Gu Qingya recently read some books on dyeing, and she was still familiar with the names of colors, but she couldn't understand some of the proper nouns in Fang's and Xu's mouths, but she didn't ask, just listened quietly .

Seeing that Gu Qingya was listening seriously, Xu couldn't help but asked with a smile: "Is Qingya also interested in dyeing?"

"Good-looking colors, why don't people like them, but I don't understand, so I just listen to you." Gu Qingya said honestly, she may not be able to understand or even master the books in the library after reading them. Listen to the old man Our experience is definitely helpful.

"It's good to listen more, someone can inherit your grandma's craftsmanship in the future." Xu said with a smile.

Fang Shi snorted, but did not reply. Obviously, she agreed with Xu Shi's words.

Gu Qingya smiled, "If I have the opportunity to learn, I will work hard." She didn't say much, if Fang really wanted her granddaughter to inherit her craft, there should be a choice in the village, right? It still needs a combination of knowledge and hands-on experience, and it is perfect for training from an early age.

Since for so many years, the Fang family has never selected anyone from among her daughters or granddaughters to train, it means that she has not considered this matter, maybe no one in the Yan family is suitable.

And she didn't belong to the Yan family, and now she is a married woman, so there is no need to think too badly about things.

Mrs. Xu didn't know the inside story, so she laughed, "My son is quite talented, and I've left it to him to take care of it all these years. I concentrated on my research, and I managed to make a lot of fun."

Gu Qingya knows that for the same color, different raw materials and mordants, even fabrics or temperature, etc., all have a great impact on the final color, so there are many people who can dye, but there is a difference in becoming a secret recipe , It is also the uniqueness of those big dyeing workshops.

Of course, there are many family workshops like Xu's among the people. They have one or two unique characteristics, but they can support their families.

"Grandma Xu, is there any color we can't dye?" Gu Qingya asked in a low voice.

When Fang heard the words, she turned her head and didn't speak, but Gu Qingya felt a little apprehensive in her eyes if there was any substance in her eyes, and there was nothing wrong with what she said.

"Purple is purple, and red is limited." Xu's voice didn't change, but for some reason, Gu Qingya could hear a trace of regret in it.

"That's it, grandma, is there pink and purple?" Gu Qingya knew that this was a common name, and the official color names were all named by the dye department affiliated with the government.

"I haven't seen this before. Why, Qingya has seen this color of fabric?" Xu was a little curious.

"No, I'm just asking, I think this color should look good." Gu Qingya shook her head, she actually just saw the color card of this color in the book in Zangshuge.

"If you have a chance, your grandma and I will do some research, and we may come up with it. It sounds like a very fresh color, and it should be very popular with girls." When new colors come out, before there are no imitations, they will make a lot of money when.

Fang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked Gu Qingya: "Qingya, what do you want you to specialize in? Follow your mother to boil silkworms and reel silk, or weaving, or dyeing?"

Without giving Gu Qingya a chance to speak, Fang went on to say, "A person's life energy is limited, you have to think about your own choices, don't get into it just because of a momentary interest, and then throw it aside, the choice is a lifetime, It's like you choose your marriage."

Xu nodded aside, "It sounds like you have learned a lot and seem to be very powerful, but when you climb to the top in a certain aspect, you will become an authority. At that time, you don't need to worry about life."

"Either be one who is submerged in the ordinary, or be someone to look up to, have you thought about it?" Fang's question is very sharp and realistic.

Gu Qingya hesitated for a while, to be honest, she had never thought about the issue of specialization, and with Zangshuge, she felt that she could learn everything, anyway, with Zangshuge as a backing.

"Grandma, I haven't figured it out yet." Gu Qingya said honestly, she is very interested in weaving, but dyeing is the same, the two actually complement each other, isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?
"You are not young anymore, it is best to make a choice before you have a child, and absolutely master all the basics in a short period of time, otherwise when you have a child, you will find that you have more than ten years to study this."

It's rare for Fang to talk so much, and she doesn't really care much about her grandchildren, but she is quite satisfied with Gu Qingya's current performance, so she can't help but want to mention something, maybe it's because of the relationship away from relatives, Relentless.

"I will keep grandma's words in mind, and make a good choice as soon as possible." Gu Qingya won't tell her true thoughts, wouldn't that make the old man unhappy, anyway, just discuss it with Jiang Rongan.

She always believes that it is very possible to take care of both. Although it takes more effort, if it succeeds, the greater the achievement will be.

At night, Jiang Rong'an wrapped himself in the bed, saw Gu Qingya was about to close her eyes, and hurriedly called out, he decided to develop a habit of talking before going to bed, not limited to what to say, as long as there is communication.

"Miss, I think you seem to have something on your mind, but what are you worrying about?" I saw her talking a lot with Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Xu today. Could it be that something was involved?
"Grandma asked me, but what do I want to specialize in? I want to weave, but also like dyeing. I want to do both, but grandma and the others said it's difficult, and I don't have enough energy to deal with it." Gu Qingya blinked Blinking, turning sideways, looking at Jiang Rongan, it was a good time for the two of them to chat.
