Chapter 136 mentions
The sky outside the window is gradually darkening, the kitchen is lit with oil lamps, the dim light is reflected in the house, the kitchen is lit with a fire to warm and dry, not cold at all, the faint fire shines on Qiaolan's face, through the light, her skin is white and delicate, a pair of eyes are extremely flexible and bright, eating food elegantly, revealing a gentle and beautiful and chaste temperament, which calms down the anxiety in people's hearts, everything is so quiet and beautiful. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's rare to have a meal with Qiaolan alone, and the quiet and beautiful feeling makes Chuanhu feel that the moonlight is so charming tonight, and his mood is like drinking iced sour plum soup in summer, which is sour and comfortable, making him feel that this trance is home.
"Brother Huzi, do you think it's good for me to accept Chunni as an apprentice?" Qiao Lan suddenly asked this topic while eating.
Before, because she was not thoughtful about things, she was reckless, she was a little annoyed, although her grandmother didn't blame her, but she could see that she didn't seem to support her intention to accept Chunni as an apprentice, the old man didn't say anything, this is a kind of refusal, but it is just to see that she is not good at Xingtou and makes herself uncomfortable.
It's been a while since this happened, Qiao Lan thought about it from time to time, gradually calmed down, and found some inappropriateness, but she didn't know how to turn this matter around. is a little uncomfortable in her heart, because she thinks things too simply, and she is still a lot worse in terms of human feelings.
"No, it's not that Chunni and the Wang family are not good, but the family has a family to read. No matter how difficult your family is, they have never wronged you, and let you work in the field, you see that Chunni would have to work in the field if she didn't go to set up a stall. Can your hand be compared to his? Can she not work without stalls? This is all reality. Of course, you can still teach, but my suggestion is that you don't drink the apprentice tea, and she can't do it to the extreme if you pass it on to her. The conditions of his family do not allow it, and when the conditions are good, the people will be older, and it will be too late, you have been influenced by your grandmother's calligraphy and painting since you were a child, and you are copying the authentic works of famous artists, does she have it? Now you have just begun to read and write, will you bear her pen, ink, paper and money all year round? In the long run, how do you let the Wang family behave? Are you a head shorter? Or are you a long-term worker in your family? But people are just your neighbors. Getting on the pole is not buying and selling. ”
Seeing that Qiaolan was finally confused, Chuanhu said what he wanted to say for a long time but it was not easy to hit, Qiaolan's heart is good, but some things are not well thought out and have been done.
Qiao Lan was stunned, thinking about everything she had done, and gradually she began to frown, as if it was a little too much.
"Am I doing something wrong? I don't think about it that much, I ....... Qiao Lan was a little at a loss.
"Actually, your heart is good, but you can't cover all the difficulties of other people's families single-handedly, your grandmother is also conditional to help them, but you are a little unconditional and unrewarded, even if you put forward the conditions, the value of your things is not equal, and people will not be able to repay this favor in the future. So your grandmother probably doesn't support you taking Chunni as an apprentice. "Chuanhu sees it more clearly, and he is more shrewd and spicy.
Qiao Lan lowered her head, sure enough, she did something wrong, and her mood suddenly became gloomy, she really didn't think about it so much, she just felt that she could help if she could, and it was easy for her to do it anyway.
"You're so tender. If they don't mention it, don't keep silent, they don't have to regret it, they can still teach, but the premise is to make it clear, for example, how do you maintain your hands? What things need to be learned, and it costs a lot of money to buy paper every month; of course, you can also give them a chance to choose, in addition to making Hui patterns, you can also teach Chunni embroidery, but embroidery is embroidery, you can't be like this, and it is impossible to make a picture of a few hundred taels of silver, that is impossible. You must know that your grandmother didn't sell it at this price back then, one is because there was no embroidery building opened by the princess back then, and we are still some distance from Jiangnan, after all, we are not the birthplace of Huiwen, so things are not valuable. Now it's worth a good time for you to catch up, and your previous pictures are not worth much. You have to make these things clear and let them choose for themselves, not just choose for them if you think it is good for them. ”
Qiao Lan thought about it seriously and felt that what Chuanhu said was right, she seemed to be a little taken for granted, she didn't consider the consequences of doing things, she was not fully rational enough, she didn't fully consider the things in the world, and sometimes it is not without such examples that good intentions do bad things.
"I know, I listen to you, if the Wang family really mentions Chunni to me in the future, I will make it clear, teach her embroidery, I don't want gifts, you can teach, but it is impossible for a picture to sell me for so much money. But if you are willing to embroider carefully, you can live a good life if you embroider well, and the pictures embroidered by others can also be worth twenty or thirty taels of silver, and you can live a rich life. Is that okay?"
"Well, make it clear and let them think about it for themselves. ”
"I know, thank you, Brother Huzi, am I a little stupid. Qiao Lan's face was a little dark.
"It's okay, you're still young, there are people who don't do things well, no one is perfect, and besides, you were originally kind. You still have fewer things to see when you go out, and your understanding of human nature is also shallow, so just ask your elders more. Chuanhu is not strange and does not dislike Qiaolan, she is introverted and not very sociable, and it is understandable that she understands some things shallowly.
The environment is too closed, and it also protects her kindness and heart from being affected, of course, she will not be tactful enough, thoughtful, and a little idealistic about things. But it's not a big mistake, it's not a big deal, it's nothing if she's naïve, it's enough to have me to protect her in the future, and she doesn't need to be thoughtful and perfect in everything.
"Well, I'll wait until they come to me. Qiao Lan thought about it carefully, and there were indeed some things that were not done well, and she did not consider the actual situation of Chunni's family, but Chunni was indeed a smart and intelligent girl, and she was also very spiritual about embroidery, and she was very happy to see such a good seedling at that time.
You must know that good seedlings are not easy to find, the master only received one apprentice from himself in his life, and the others are just learning, but they have not learned the essence, and the master does not care, but only the requirements for themselves are very strict, so she has today's achievements.
To put it another way, if it is replaced by the original body itself, the Li family really needs to borrow money to treat the injury, because the original body has not reached the level of her own at all, and even Mrs. Li cannot compare with herself or her master's level, so her family's money cannot be as much as it is now, which is inevitable.
After figuring out this, Qiaolan was also in a much more relaxed mood, and she still had to teach, but she couldn't ask Chunni to learn all her inheritance, just teach her to learn to read, see what she likes to learn, and respect her wishes.
"Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while. Chuanhu saw that she hadn't finished her bowl of rice and reminded her.
"Good. ”
The two talked and laughed and had a very warm dinner, Qiao Lan picked up the dinner plate, passed the tiger to add some firewood to the stove, and steamed the buns.
The old man was also full of food and drink, and his son came to this side, "Girl, we are leaving, thank you for your hospitality, the craftsmanship is good." This is a little bit of my heart to meet for the first time, you can keep it. ”
The old man took a box from his son and handed it over. "Grandpa doesn't need it, you are my brother's master, that is, my elder, how can you come to be a guest for a meal and receive gifts. Qiao Lan hurriedly excused herself.
"Don't be too busy saying no, just look at it and say yes, you'll definitely like it. The old man smiled mysteriously.
Qiao Lan looked at her brother Xuewu suspiciously, he smiled and nodded, meaning to let her accept this gift.
