Chapter 51: Art Comforts
The art shop opened, and Hanzhou named it "Beautiful Mood".
The plaque is still wooden, and the bright red vermilion lacquer depicts the name of the store for a long time. On the left and right is a couplet: the landscape knows the sun and the moon, the landscape has no intention, the grass and trees know the cold and warm, and the plants and trees have affection.
The door of the store is open, and against the wall are a number of patchwork lattices and shelves. The shelves are covered with white sheepskin, lacquered ornaments in black and red, hairpins and hairpins on the head, necklaces around the neck, beads and bracelets on the wrists, buckles and decorative ropes around the waist.
Together with the ornaments are various utensils of black pottery. The black is steady and dignified, and the black is reverie.
However, there was a clump of green, growing out of the belly of the black pottery hen, destroying the calm atmosphere of all this, and the whole shop became flexible and lively. It was a bean sprout grown by the owner.
There are two high stools in the store, but the high stools have backrests, so people who want to buy something or those who are tired of shopping can sit on them. Behind the long table was a woman who was concentrating on painting, and when customers came in the store, she smiled and looked at it, and did not answer, but focused on the work at hand. The greeting person was a girl of seventeen or eighteen, wearing aqua green clothes, which made the store look refreshing and vivid like the bean sprouts.
Childe Fusu walked in, the attendant raised his foot behind and put it down, he glanced at the store, it looked fresh inside, but the master was inside, it was not appropriate for him to go in, it was better to wait outside the door. When the master wants to pay for it, he goes in again.
Fusu stood still in front of the shelf, and the clerk Xi Shi came over and bowed slightly, which was regarded as a greeting. Fusu waved his hand, and Xi Shi retreated with interest.
The shop is really beautifully furnished, and every corner has been put into it. When he came in just now, Xiao Han didn't get up, but smiled at him and nodded, nothing rude. This casual and warm smile seemed to be an acquaintance, which made Fusu very comfortable. If she really showed a humble smile, Fusu would hold herself up instead. If he holds it up, he doesn't know how to let go of himself in the future. And that feeling wasn't what he wanted.
He picked up a necklace at random, there were only a few black beads on it, and the rest was a very intricately braided red thread, the most conspicuous was a large rose that bloomed to the extreme, full and crystalline, which made people's mood bloom with it.
The bracelet is pasted with flowers, which are broken eggshells, which are very textured, and the flowers look extremely enchanting.
There are roses and daisies on the hairpin, and there is the beauty of the demon and the beauty of the astringent.
There is a wrist ornament strung with square white bone pieces, with a black lacquer block of the same size, the white is a complex paper pattern, and the black block is engraved with the character "cherish blessings". Fusu doesn't know if this is for men, and women don't seem to like this kind of angular stuff very much.
The pen holder inside the pottery is very simple, but there is a wide blank space underneath, I don't know if it is used for inscriptions.
There are a few simple clay plates standing on the mahogany shelves, some with paintings on them, some empty.
On a plate is the back of a little girl's head, and the whole picture is floating with dandelions from near and far, which looks very childlike.
In the center of another plate is a bird's nest, a large bird standing outside the nest with a fat worm in its mouth, and the small birds with their small beaks open, their small red tongues like a thread, as if a tender voice came from their throats.
There is also a picture of a big tree and the backs of two people, one big and one small, under the tree, the leaves are fluttering, they must be waiting for someone.
……
Fusu turned behind the desk, and Hanzhou raised his head, put down his pen, and stood up. She smiled and moved her neck as she hammered her lower back a few times.
Fusu said: "Why bother so hard! Just take your time in business. ”
Han Zhou smiled noncommittally, on the other side was a person who was born in the royal family, how to tell him so that he could understand the hardships of the survival of the little people?
Fusu said: "It's all lacquerware, it's good-looking, but it's not precious after all." ”
Han Zhou smiled again, but still didn't speak.
Fusu was a little annoyed when he saw that she didn't speak, he came to talk to her, why is it so difficult to open his mouth?
"Why don't you speak?" He asked.
Han Zhou still pursed her lips and smiled, and at this moment she was smiling at Fusu's attitude. After a while, she said, "I'll wait for my son to finish asking, and then let's talk together." ”
Fusu glared at her, this woman was too hateful.
Han Zhou didn't care about his unfriendly eyes, she said calmly, "I'll answer the first question first." I'm not alone in this shop. The Hu family is an investor, I am responsible for the design and management, and I need to see the benefits in a short period of time and give investors confidence. You see, many of the plates in this store are still semi-finished, and I need to rush to get people who come into this store to say that this store can really be called a 'beautiful mood'. The second question is about the high and low value of jewelry materials. Our art shop, even if it sells a stone, has taken on a new life and value through clever conception and fine processing. Virgin precious metals or other expensive minerals cannot be equated with the value of good works of art. A work of art sells for its beauty, and as long as it is beautiful, it is valuable.
And then there's another related question, let's talk about how the wearer feels. How many women can wear beautiful jewelry today? Very few, in order not to violate the laws of the country, they suppressed their love of beauty, I made this beautiful thing, so that they can get satisfaction from these little things, they wear it, beautiful, happy, will they care very much about the quality of its material......"
Fusu was very happy, she was willing to talk to him seriously, not politely, and he was very happy. He just wanted to tease her. Of course, there is some truth in what she said.
"I think the girl cares a lot about the material of the jewelry, but you don't wear any of them in this business, doesn't this mean that you actually don't like it?"
Han Zhou nodded, smiled, touched the brush on her head, she tilted her head to look at Fu Miao and said, "I don't wear the things in this store on my head, Childe said I don't like it, according to Childe said so, I put a brush on my head, indicating that I like to write, right?" If I don't have a pair of swords on my head one day, does Childe think I like to fight? It's a good idea, though, and I'm going to write it down. ”
Her delicate smile turned out to be like this, and Fusu smiled too. Her answer was cunning, but he indulged her as long as she liked it.
He changed the subject: "Look at what you're painting now?" ”
Han Zhou put the plate away, looked at it for a while, and asked, "Is it good-looking?" Messenger from heaven. ”
Fusu also approached her to look at the plate.
In the picture, there is a child sitting on the ground, looking at the sky in the distance, and a wild goose flies in the sky, and the wild goose hangs a burden around its neck, the burden is very beautiful, and it is made of vermilion, which is the focus of the whole picture.
Han Zhou pointed to the child and said, "He has never received a gift, but a wild goose knows about it and brings him a gift from afar." It was given to him by God. ”
Fusu's heart trembled slightly, as if he had been struck. When Xiao Han said, 'It was given to him by God', there was a soothing warmth and strength in this rustling voice. Remembering what she likes to say about respecting life, maybe in her heart, every person, every frog is worthy of pity and good treatment.
What a kind and pure woman she is.
She deserves to be loved well.
"Childe hasn't said whether it's good-looking or not?" Han Zhou looked at Fusu, hoping to get an affirmation.
In Fusu's eyes, this seems to be coquettish, and he hurriedly said: "Good-looking, good-looking." ”
"You have a vision!" Han Zhou gave him a gentle look, his eyelashes flickering.
This little look made Fusu feel that he loved him to death. He just wanted her to do this to him.
"If Childe has any suggestions for our store, we will improve. Of course, we also welcome orders. Hanzhou came up with a serious business style, but Fusu couldn't help but want to laugh, but he was still very cooperative and serious.
He put his hands behind his back and said in a tone of voice: "I think this shop is good, but the female shopkeeper can dress more beautifully, after all, it is a work of art, and you have to let people who come in see that this shop is beautiful no matter how you look at it." ”
Hanzhou was originally joking, but when he heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and then looked at his clothes, as if what Fusu said really made sense. She bowed to Fusu seriously and said, "Thank you, Childe, Xiaohan will definitely improve." ”
The matter of clothes was originally dismissed, but an outsider in Fusu brought it up, which means that there are still some problems. Now that I've made art, it seems that I can be accepted by people. Han Zhou remembered the clerk's costume she had designed for the tofu shop in the past, and decided that she and Xi Shi would make a set by themselves. It's getting hotter, and it's perfectly fine to wear a shirt. If you feel cold, it's good to make a long bump outside. Now there are lacquer-carved balls, which can be used as buttons and have a decorative effect.
When it comes to making new clothes, Xi Shi is particularly spiritual. She is at the age of dreaming, and she feels very happy and satisfied working in this beautiful shop, and occasionally rides on a horse to the various tofu shops and comes back immediately. If there are guests, they will greet them, and when no one is around, they will sit down, paste egg skins or weave flower ropes, in short, it is much better than at home.
The matter of the clothes was explained to Xi Shi, a set of green and a set of white, and after thinking about it, another set of black was added. This is more harmonious with the atmosphere of the store.
There are not enough goods in the store, and the variety is not rich enough, but it can be seen that the sales trend is very good. As soon as someone enters the store, they first sigh and admire the store decoration, and then they look at it for a long time, it seems that they want everything, and in the end they can only buy the same, because the things in this store are not cheap. There are also people who, after buying, have to sit down and chat with the clerk, talking about the matching of clothes, the thoughts of the family, and so on.
The paintings on the clay plates are fascinating, as if each one is a story. There was an old lady who bought the one and wiped her tears when she left.
Watching the old man walk out, Han Zhou sighed and said, "There are too many people in this world who need to be comforted. ”
Fusu was beside him, "Oh? "Yes.
Han Zhou nodded: "Everyone, including me, maybe you, although I don't know where you need comfort, but I believe that everyone needs comfort." ”
She thought of Xiaoju in Shuangliu Town who was looking forward to her husband coming home, as well as Sister Cuicui, who was always beaten, Xiaohua, who often had to see her sister who had no time to play, and Brother Da Zao, the man who was so honest and kind that he gave her a heart. Hu Lao and his son are too, since Lao Jiu went to the battlefield, the old man looked happy, but he actually lost weight.
There were also people who were far away from home with fortifications built here and there.
A person who may be drafted into the military service or punished for a disability at any time because of a minor mistake.
Even Yingren, who is a potter shop, is worried every day about the strange son and a group of strange magic soil, and he doesn't know what is going to happen.
And she is a person who can't go back to home.
……
Fusu chewed on the comfort she said, he just felt that Xiao Han, who wanted to go home, needed to be soothed, and the person who could soothe her should be him, and he really needed to be soothed, it was Xiao Han who could soothe him, as long as she smiled at him, talked to him, and fell in love with him, he would be soothed.
"I'm willing to soothe them, and I can do a little bit." Xiao Han muttered to himself.
Is her expression at the moment compassionate, merciful, and love? Fusu couldn't be sure, he felt that there was something unearthly on Xiao Han's body, in short, it was not the smell of firewood, rice, oil and salt in this market.
He thought that maybe she was a god from the stars, and she had come to purify all beings.
She knew strange animals he didn't know, she thought about things that the women around her didn't think about, and she had said that if she lied, it wasn't to get anything, but just to protect herself.
She, a woman who has been harmed, dares to raise a horsewhip on the street to punish Diao Min, and dares to pull up a thousand threads to prop up such a shop, is she afraid in her heart? What scares her?
