Feast Of Flowers - Chapter 69
“Mr. Pei, what’s wrong with Ms. Hua?” When the driver saw Pei Yan coming out with Hua Jin on his back, he opened the door for the two of them. “Is it uncomfortable?”
“It’s okay. I ate with her neighbor at noon and drank a lot.” Pei Yan put Huajin in the car and fed her two sips of water. “Wait, drive the car slower and go straight home.” I also plan to take Huajin to the mall to choose some indoor supplies. She is so drunk now that she should go back to bed early.
“Pei Yanyan.” Hua Jin opened his misty drunk eyes and saw that Pei Yan was wearing a seat belt for her and twisted her waist: “No, it’s uncomfortable.”
“Hey, don’t make trouble.” Pei Yan buckled the seat belt, “fasten the seat belt, happy you and me.”
Hua Jin said nothing. Just when Pei Yan thought she was asleep, Hua Jin suddenly opened her eyes: “I am… very happy now.”
Pei Yan was stunned for a moment and looked at Hua Jin.
“I am very happy to meet you and be with you.” She grabbed Pei Yan’s hand and smiled silly twice, “Thank you.”
Pei Yan was silent for a long time. He looked at Hua Jin with gentle eyes as if rubbing her into his heart: “Usually I like to talk sweet words. When I get drunk, my mouth is sweeter. Are you sweet?”
Huajin is still smirking.
“You.” Pei Yan lifted the broken hair from her temple to the back, leaned over and kissed the corner of her mouth.
Life is boring, but thank you for having it.
Huajin slept for a long time, until she had a long, long dream. In her dream, she squatted in the cornfield, and someone walked up to her.
“I will take you away.”
She raised her head and saw Pei Yan’s smiling face.
“I’ll follow you.” She held his hand tightly and stood out from the corn bush. At this moment, she no longer hides, no longer is afraid, no longer hesitates.
Behind her is darkness, and his world is full of light. The moment she held his hand, she seemed to hold Guangming in her palm.
Opening her eyes, the window screens danced in the morning light, she looked at the sun outside the window and laughed softly.
Going to the bathroom to take a shower, changing clothes and going downstairs, Pei Yan sat on the sofa and read. Seeing her, Pei Yan put down her book: “You finally woke up and slept for more than ten hours. Are you hungry?”
Huajin nodded.
Pei Yan got up and asked the helper to bring the breakfast, and took Huajin to sit down at the table: “Drink less in the future, the amount of alcohol is bad.”
“Then I will drink it when I am with you.” Huajin took a sip of the porridge, “I don’t have to worry if you are there.”
Pei Yan: “…”
Seeing that he wanted to criticize himself, but he could not help but laugh, Hua Jin couldn’t help but laughed out: “Take you fun, I will drink less in the future. In our business, we must not only ensure the flexibility of hands” , The brain is also very demanding, how dare I get drunk often.”
“It’s good to know.” Pei Yan touched the still wet hair on Pei Yan’s head, frowned, wiped her with a dry towel, “Wait on Fanhua, or Mark’s studio?”
Huajin put down the bowl: “Go to Fanhua first. Two or three months ago, an old man ordered a pair of embroidered shoes for his wife from me. Later, because the old man became ill, neither of them had time to fetch them. Now the uncle is well ill. Yes, I want to hand the embroidered shoes to him personally.”
“Then I will send you there?”
“No need.” Hua Jin said, “Let the driver’s brother take me there. You come to meet me downstairs in Mark’s studio around one noon. Let’s have lunch together.”
“That’s good.” Pei Yan is going to see a program director, “I will come to pick you up at noon.”
When Huajin rushed back to Fanhua, it was late, and Tan Yuan and the two newly invited shop assistants were greeting customers. Seeing her coming, Tan Yuan handed the customer to the clerk, walked to her and whispered: “You have been so busy lately, why are you still worrying about this side, your body is gone?”
“I came here today to hand over the embroidery from a few months ago to the guests.” Putting the bag in her hand on the table, Hua Jin smiled and looked at Tan Yuan, “By the way, I have another news.”
“what news?”
“I live with Pei Yan.”
“What?!” Tan Yuan was surprised and delighted. After a long time, she said, “You finally…look away?”
“Yeah.” Huajin put his cheek in one hand, “such a good man, I don’t want to leave him to others, so I can only hold him tightly, and don’t let go.”
“It’s right to think like this. A good man is a rare encounter in a century. If you meet him, you have to hold on to it. Don’t give it to anyone.” Tan Yuan said, “Regardless of his wealth and status, let’s talk about it first.”
After speaking, the two of them laughed softly.
After Hua Jin waited in the store for a while, the old man came over with a young man. I haven’t seen him for two to three months. The uncle looks thinner, but his mental head is still the same. It seems that the body has healed.
Hua Jin handed the box with the embroidered shoes to the uncle, and said to him: “Uncle, you and your aunt should take good care of your health and live to be one hundred and ninety-nine.”
“Living for so long, you won’t be an old monster?” The old man smiled and waved his hand. “Little girl, thank you, these shoes are so beautifully embroidered.”
“The embroidery is not beautiful, and I am not ashamed to hand it over to you. This is a gift you carefully prepared for the aunt.” Hua Jin handed the gift to the old man.
Accompanying the old man was their son. He was dressed in a neat suit and glasses, and he looked like an elite in a certain industry. He politely thanked Hua Jin, not enthusiastic about her attitude, but very concerned about the old man.
“Old man, why are you here?” With an exclamation, Hua Jin looked up, and the old lady appeared at the door of the store, with her old sister by her side.
“Didn’t you tell me to let my son accompany you for a walk?” The aunt walked into the store, looked at Huajin, and then at her husband and son. “You are so old that you lied to me with your children?”
“Mom.” The son smiled helplessly, “I came with Dad.”
The aunt looked at the uncle: “Go ahead, why are you here?”
“Then why are you here?” The uncle held the box in his hand, like a kid who did a good job but waited for others to find out. “When you went out in the morning, didn’t you tell me that you want to go shopping with your old sister?”
“Yes, I’m not shopping here?” the aunt said confidently, “Is it weird to walk here?”
“Humph.” The uncle put the box into the aunt’s hand, “take it, you can see why I am here.”
The aunt opened the box in a puzzled manner, and when she saw the embroidered shoes lying inside, she was stunned: “This is… for me?”
“It’s not that you talk about the good-looking shoes in the TV series every day, otherwise, what am I doing with this effort?” The old man was a little proud, “Well, is your husband’s aesthetics particularly good?”
“What’s so good?” The aunt scolded with a smile, and turned to Huajin and said, “Little girl, take the things I ordered too.”
“You also ordered something for me here?” The uncle was a little surprised, but he didn’t expect that there was such a coincidence.
“Do you think that only you remember to buy things?” The aunt raised her chin, and when Huajin took out the box, she took out the red belt inside, “Look, isn’t it good?”
Seeing this red belt, the uncle’s face was a little red: “I don’t believe these things…”
The aunt ignored him, shook the belt, and tied it to the uncle’s waist. The Wufu pattern on the belt was embroidered beautifully and delicately, but it looked a bit different from the woven fabrics outside: “Look, tie red. Is it very energetic?”
The two sons nodded quickly: “Looks ten years younger.”
“I’ll just say that your dad was ill this time and suffered a serious crime.” While muttering, the aunt tidied the belt for the uncle, as if she was not wearing a belt, but tied her life and health to the uncle.
“Thank you, how much is the balance?” The two sons, seeing that they were very happy, quietly walked to Hua Jin, “I will pay for them.”
Huajin reported the price, which was lower than he expected. After paying the bill, he wondered: “Manual embroidery is very laborious, why is the embroiderer’s fee so low?”
“I met my grandfather and aunt before, so this time it is a friendly price.” Hua Jin issued the invoice to him, “Do you have anything else you need? If you buy it today, I will give you a 10% discount.”
When the young man heard this, he really chose a shawl, the style was more girly.
“Thank you for your patronage.” Huajin received the money, wrapped the shawl and handed it to the young man, “I wish you happiness and sweetness with the people you like.”
“How do you know that you bought it for someone I like?” The young man was a little surprised.
“Maybe it’s because the eyes you look at this shawl are too gentle.” Hua Jin smiled, “We who open a shop and do business, must look good in order to open the shop.”
The young man couldn’t help but glanced at her more, thanked him, and turned around to take his parents away. I don’t know that the grandfather and aunt didn’t seem to be leaving right away, and she enthusiastically asked Hua Jin how she is doing recently and whether she plans to fall in love.
“I already have a boyfriend.” Hua Jin smiled helplessly, “Thank you for your concern.”
Seeing Huajin’s dumbfounding, the young man coaxed the two away and glanced at the store’s name more before leaving. In recent months, the big boss above has set up a project to support traditional handicrafts. The owner of the shop has good craftsmanship and is young, but he can apply to the project team and invite her to participate in cooperation.
He followed the two elders, listening to their conversation, and smiled reluctantly and joyfully.
“Old man, this little girl’s craftsmanship is good. I chose this one by choosing from left to right. Don’t forget to tie it these days.”
“You can be long-winded, tomorrow you are not going to participate in community dance activities with your old sisters, remember to put on the embroidered shoes I customized for you.”
“Will it be too swagger?”
“Swagger? Why did you swagger on the shoes your husband bought?”
After leaving the grandpa and aunt’s family, Hua Jin rushed to Mark’s studio. She arrived a little late, and most of the embroidery masters had already arrived.
“Sorry, I am late.” Hua Jin sat down in the chair and apologized to everyone. Just apologize directly after making a mistake, and finding excuses for reasons will not make others feel good.
“It’s 10:30. It’s 10:32. It’s not too late.” Yan Ke glanced at his watch, his tone was light.
“Sorry.” Hua Jin apologized again.
“Masters are very busy. I invite you all over again this time, and I will trouble you all.” Mark said, he stood up and said, “The content of this meeting must not be made public, and there must be no photos coming out, so try not to avoid it during the meeting. Using mobile phones, please understand.”
For the designer, the design pattern is life. If the design pattern flows out in advance, it will be a huge blow to the designer.
Everyone also expressed their understanding, and the meeting officially began.
“Through the efforts of the masters over the past few months, all the clothes to be exhibited have been embroidered. According to the characteristics of your embroidery, I matched each outfit with suitable accessories. There is less than half a month before the fashion conference At the time of the year, I will release the finished picture, and everyone will see what else needs to be modified.” Mark glanced at the crowd and motioned to his assistant to turn on the projector.
The embroiderers present here each have their own costumes. Although they are all embroiders, the embroidered styles are different. This is the first time that they are here to see the garments completed by other embroiders.
The first one is the costume completed by the master of Hunan embroidery and her assistant. The dark blue skirt is embroidered with intricate and gorgeous patterns, which match the colors perfectly.
Huajin can’t help but sigh. It is indeed the work of Hunan embroidery masters and design masters. This skirt is embroidered with other things, and it may lack a bit of flavor, but this retro and gorgeous texture makes this skirt more solemn. Kind of mysterious and charming.
The other skirts are all beautiful and have their own characteristics. The styles of the skirts are not for fashion and fashion, but combine beauty with fashion and tradition. The beauty is mysterious and noble. People can’t help but fantasize. What kind of story will be behind the woman who grows a skirt?
Yan Ke is a disciple of Xu Yan, a well-known embroidery master in China. The embroidered works are not entirely Xu style. There is a modern style in his show. But this style is not obtrusive at all on the skirt he embroidered, but it is just right.
No wonder Master Xu Yan liked this apprentice so much and even recommended him to Mark. His embroidery has proved his ability and talent.
Listening to the compliments of the predecessors, Yan Ke turned his head and glanced at Huajin. He wanted to know what the embroiderer, who was once unknown in the embroidery industry but was personally invited by Mr. Mark, would embroider pictures.
When the finished picture came out, Yan Ke was stunned.
The skirt on the finished picture is beautiful, and the beauty is a little distorted. The pattern on the skirt is like a gorgeous bird feather, which is perfectly integrated with the skirt. He could almost imagine how the audience would react when the model put on this skirt and appeared on the platform.
They will marvel and even suspect that the model is a bird, otherwise, how could there be such a beautiful skirt?
“The flower embroiderer is really proficient in the use of scale and feather needles.” The master of Hunan embroidery stared at the dress called Luan, and said with emotion after a long while, “There are talented people from the Jiangshan generation, and there are Yan embroidery masters and flowers. Young people like embroiderers are here, and we can be considered as successors in the embroidery industry.”
“The embroidery is such a big picture. Has the flower embroiderer been embroidering this skirt for the past few months?” Yan Ke returned from the shock, “How much time do you spend embroidering it every day?”
Embroidery patterns take up a large part of the skirt, and the patterns are so exquisite. It takes only a few months, which is not something ordinary people can do.
“Most of the time is spent on this skirt.” Hua Jin teased herself, “It is incumbent to win glory for the country.”
“You are amazing.” Yan Ke solemnly said, “I apologize for the prejudice before.”
Flower brocade: “…”
Master Xu’s apprentice was really upright. He just put it on his face when he didn’t like it. When he realized that he had done something wrong, he apologized in front of so many people. A child who can develop such a character is a child who has lived in happiness since childhood. That’s why I am not afraid to express my emotions and also have the courage to apologize for my mistakes.
After the matter was over, Yan Ke was not consciously short in front of Hua Jin. In the past, as long as he met Hua Jin’s eyes, he moved away expressionlessly. Now it’s different. As long as the two people’s eyes meet, whether they can laugh or not, he tries to squeeze out a smile, desperately trying to make Hua Jin feel His kind and friendly emotions.
The meeting ended just a little closer. Mark glanced at the Huajin sitting in the corner and said to everyone: “Thank you teachers, I have booked a place in a nearby restaurant. I hope everyone will enjoy their face and have a casual meal.”
At this time, everyone was hungry, so they didn’t refuse. Hua Jin apologized to everyone and smiled: “Sorry, my boyfriend is waiting for me downstairs, so I won’t be with everyone.”
“It’s rare that everyone has time to get together this time. If the flower embroidery master is not there, it would be a pity.” Mark looked at the brocade and closed the folder. “Everyone has been working together for such a long time and we are all familiar with each other. …You called your boyfriend together?”
He also wanted to see how good the flower embroiderer’s boyfriend was that made her so desperate.
The author has something to say: Pei Yan: Who? Who wants to see me?
