Chapter 43: Summer Vacation 2
summer vacation
"Mom, let's go out together when you're on vacation!" Lin Ya is holding an embroidered bandage in her hand, on which is a simple and generous lily embroidery picture, and it will be Jiang Fan's thirty-sixth birthday soon, Lin Ya plans to make a casual dress for her mother, which is considered a birthday gift for her mother. Originally, Lin Ya planned to spend money to buy a birthday gift for her mother, but a few days ago, Lin Ya saw that her mother seemed to like her grass-green silk embroidered dress, so Lin Ya changed her mind and went to buy light blue silk and made a birthday gift for her mother.
"Yes, where do you want to go?" Jiang Fan buried his head in writing the lesson plan, the school is about to end in the past few days, and he needs to hand in a lot of materials, and Jiang Fan has been rushing to this for the past few days. A few days ago, because Lin Ya was going to take an exam, Jiang Fan didn't have the heart to write these at all.
"Well, let's go to T City, it's close, and there is something delicious, it's close to the sea, you can go to eat seafood, and there are a lot of places of interest, how good it is to eat and play!" Lin Ya said with a smile, in fact, the main reason is that she and her mother are two women, and the place where you run too far is not โกโก, T city is only two or three hours' drive from B city, and the city construction is also good, it is a good place for tourism.
"Okay, we'll go when I'm on vacation." Jiang Fan raised his head and said with a smile: "By the way, where are you going to apply for high school this time?" Because Lin Ya's score in this assessment was very good, Jiang Fancai asked, although the high school of No. 1 Middle School is also a key point in the city, but it is still a little worse than the central high school and the private Xuetong high school.
"Center, that school is close to home, and the school has scholarships." Lin Ya said very financially.
"But the learning intensity of the central high school is very high, and it is better than our No. 1 middle school, can you stand it?" Jiang Fan frowned and said with some concern. Lin Ya looks soft and weak, and her figure is also thin, and she doesn't look very good.
Lin Ya heard this, "Then I'm thinking about it, anyway, there are still two days to think slowly, don't worry." Lin Ya said indifferently.
"I think, if you don't want to go to a middle school again, then go to Xuetong, that school has good teachers and is not strict, which is quite suitable for you." Jiang Fan said.
Lin Ya thought about it and thought it was good, "However, Xuetong's school discipline doesn't seem to be too strict, and I always heard that there are fights." Lin Ya doesn't like this kind of disorderly place, because learning communication is a free school spirit, so the school discipline is really not good, but the school almost every year has the top student in the college entrance examination, and I don't even know how to learn it.
However, Xuetong's library is really good, because it is a private high school, and the library inside is said to have a lot of rare books, which is not less than a middle school. Moreover, the campus construction of Xuetong is super good, there are large gymnasiums and swimming pools in the school, and it is very close to S University.
Lin Ya thought about it for two days, and finally listened to her mother's advice and applied for the school. Lin Ya's high school entrance examination results have come out on Friday night, and Lin Ya's test is very good, ranking first in the district and second in the city. On Monday, Lin Ya was completely fine after filling in the school, and the notice would be sent directly to the school, but that was half a month later. And Lin Ya is confident, and there is absolutely no problem with being admitted to school with her own results.
On Monday, Lin Ya filled out the application form, and Lin Ya went home directly. Lin Ya has been quite idle these days. It's just that my mother will have a few days off for the holidays, so Lin Ya can only play alone. Fortunately, Lin Ya has been busy making clothes for her mother these days, so she didn't feel bored.
Lin Ya rushed to that dress for a week, because it was just a simple lily embroidery picture, so it was not complicated to embroider. Now, a week later, I finally got that dress ready.
Because the size is calculated by her own eyes, Lin Ya made the size a little bigger, anyway, the requirements for the size of casual clothes are not too strict, and Lin Ya also borrowed a piece of clothes that her mother is wearing now, and measured the size of the clothes, so the clothes made still fit very well.
After Lin Ya arrived home, she thought about it for a while, changed her clothes, brought her newly embroidered picture of red plum blossoms welcoming spring, and the clothes she made herself, and went to Anya Embroidery Village. The length of Hongmei Yingchun is not large, it is a one-meter embroidery map, Lin Ya began to write before the exam, although the picture is quite large, but because this Tulinya has been embroidered many times before, so the speed is very fast. And the meaning of this red plum picture is good, so it should be very easy to sell. Lin Ya also had no money in her hand this time, so she embroidered this picture.
It was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon when Lin Ya arrived at Anya Embroidery Village, which was the hottest time of the day. As soon as Lin Ya arrived at Anya Embroidery Village, she found that it was being renovated, but fortunately, it was also open for business.
"Xiaoman, why are you here, you haven't been here to take care of Aunt Zhang's business for a long time." Zhang Shuwen said with a smile: "Come into the house, it's hot outside." With that, he pulled Lin Ya into the house.
"Aunt Zhang, I just came out of the examination room to see you." Lin Ya said with a faint smile on her face.
"Eh, really, you took the high school entrance examination this year, right?" Zhang Shuwen slapped her forehead and said with annoyance.
Lin Ya smiled, after knowing each other for so long, Lin Ya still doesn't know that she is Aunt Zhang, an authentic businessman, who talks about people and talks nonsense, "Aunt Zhang, do you still accept embroidery drawings now?" โ
"Collect, of course, what did you embroider this time?" Zhang Shuwen said happily that Lin Ya's previous two embroidery pictures were bought at a good price, and she made a lot of money.
With a light smile on her face, Lin Ya gave the bag containing the red plum picture to Zhang Shuwen, "By the way, Aunt Zhang, do you have a box here for embroidery?" โ
"Absolutely." Zhang Shuwen replied, "I'm a boutique here, of course there will be boxes, and they are all good, if you want to get one for you later." Zhang Shuwen said, already wearing gloves on his hands and unfolding the embroidery drawing.
"Yes, the red plum primrose you embroidered this time is really good, but it's a little smaller. If it is one meter five or two meters, it is estimated that it will be more collectible. Zhang Shuwen took a magnifying glass and observed carefully, Lin Ya usually uses the best silk thread when embroidering, and splits the thread when she uses it, Lin Ya can split the thread up to thirteen times, which is already very good.
"Very good, how about this number." Zhang Shuwen made a number in his hand, 150,000, Lin Ya thought for a moment and nodded, although it was less, but she really didn't spend too much energy this time, and it wasn't too much.
"That's fine, but you can give me ten more kilograms of fine silk thread and three meters of embroidered cloth. All the best. Lin Ya said with a smile.
"Cheng, no problem, by the way, what is hidden in your bag, take it out and show it to Aunt Zhang." Zhang Shuwen made a business and said in a good mood. It just so happened that a customer wanted a pair of embroidery with good meaning in the past few days, and this one was very consistent.
When Lin Ya heard this, she gave Zhang Shuwen another silk bag she was holding in her hand, "This is a birthday gift I made for my mother, and I will trouble Aunt Zhang to give me that beautiful box in a while." Lin Ya said with a smile.
"Cheng, you can pick it yourself in a while, choose the one and take the one." Zhang Shuwen said, taking out the clothes from the bag.
The whole dress is sky blue, with lilies delicately outlined with silk threads, and the jacket and pants are all very flowing styles, which look very loose, from the neckline of the clothes to the trousers of the pants, it is a picture of lilies in full bloom, which looks unusually elegant.
"Just look, Xiaoya, you are really a big baby, you did it all yourself?" Zhang Shuwen said with some surprise.
"Yes, what does Aunt Zhang think?" Lin Ya said with a smile.
"Of course it's good, I really didn't expect you to have this ability." Zhang Shuwen said in admiration, his hand gently stroked the clothes, the embroidery on this dress is not complicated, Zhang Shuwen can embroider it in ten days and half a month, but this design is really good, the picture on the jacket and pants can be connected into a whole, it is really exquisite!
Lin Ya didn't bother Zhang Shuwen to indulge in the clothes she made, but walked around the store, Zhang Shuwen's shop has expanded a lot in the past two years, in addition to ornaments, screens, and various color pictures, a lot of small pieces have been added, Lin Ya saw a silk scarf with a price of 5,000, and there were only a few butterflies embroidered on both sides of the scarf, but the embroidery was really good, very exquisite, and it could be seen that it was attentive.
"Aunt Zhang, this scarf is really beautifully embroidered." Lin Ya said with a smile.
"That?" Zhang Shuwen heard Lin Ya's voice and said.
"This one, the butterfly embroidered on it is really good." Lin Ya pointed to the dark blue scarf and said.
Zhang Shuwen looked at it and said proudly: "That's, that's your Aunt Zhang's work." โ
Lin Ya nodded, it is true that there are many embroidery masters in this shop, but there are not many who have such good craftsmanship. "Aunt Zhang, it's not early, you can help me get my things, I should go home." Lin Ya took her craft and looked at the time, and found that it was almost four o'clock before she knew it.
"Okay, you wait a minute, I'll call you the money directly to the card." After Zhang Shuwen finished speaking, he went to get something for Lin Ya, and when he came out, he also held a beautiful wenge box in his hand, with fine carvings on it, and the locks and other places were made of copper, which was very elegant.
"Lin Ya, look at how this box is." Zhang Shuwen put the box on the table, "This box is wenge, although the cost is not particularly high, but it is also the most expensive gift box I have here." โ
Lin Ya took a closer look at the box, the workmanship was indeed exquisite, and nodded, "That's it, thank you Aunt Zhang." โ
"It's okay, you can like it, I'll put the clothes in for you, it's just right." Zhang Shuwen knocked on the box with a smile and said.
Lin Ya nodded, thanked Zhang Shuwen again, and then went home with a lot of things.
When she got home, Lin Ya was already sweating, although she was taking a taxi back and forth, but Lin Ya was also a little unbearable from the heat in these few steps.
The first thing Lin Ya did when she got home was to run to the kitchen, took the cold white fungus lotus seed soup from the refrigerator, poured a few sips, and felt cold from the top of her head to her stomach, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
