Because of the embroidery of lotus buds, it took half an hour to say the least, and on the ancient alley, it was not as overcrowded as Fang Cai at this moment.

She walked a few steps towards the end of the alley, looked at it from a distance, didn't see He Xidong's figure, thought about it for a while, and decided to go to the alley.

Just a few steps away, I heard someone shouting to herself, He Wei raised her head, and followed the voice, who is not He Xidong?

"Vivi—"

He Xidong panted and ran to her from the direction of the alley: "You...... Are you okay? Brother looking for ...... I've been looking for you for a long time, and I've searched the whole street...... I am going to ...... Let's go home and see first, and ...... If I still can't find you, I'll want to call the police......"

He Wei felt guilty, it was indeed her failure to do a good job, which made him worried.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm fine, I was scattered by the crowd at first, and I couldn't find you, so I followed the two police officers to Yuxiu Pavilion, where I waited until there were fewer people before coming out......"

He Xidong saw that she was fine, and the uneasy boulder finally landed, how could he doubt it so much, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's not early, let's go home first." ”

"Brother, where's your stuff?" And her silk painting, she's still waiting to pick it up.

"The buns stored at the entrance of the alley are ...... By the way, Uncle Qiangzi is still guarding the stall in the alley, and he reminded me to ask the boss of the bun shop to deliver a message for a while, so as not to worry Uncle Qiangzi. ”

"Well, thank you Uncle Qiangzi another day."

"That's a must."

The brother and sister walked side by side towards the alley.

Not far behind him, Zhou An retracted his gaze and quietly turned back to the store.

"How?" Tao Defu and Zhao Shirong stopped the topic and turned their heads to look at him.

"The man was her brother, and I had a little impression of the young man, who was probably setting up a stall in this neighborhood. But shopkeeper, did you really decide to keep her in the shop to do embroidery? ...... age"

"Hey, I said man, your shopkeeper doesn't even care about the age of the younger girl, what are you squeaking?" Zhao Shirong glared unhappily.

Tao Defu rolled his eyes, knocked his index finger on the table, and said, "I said Boss Zhao, if you want to speak, you should also be the shopkeeper of me, don't you make enough noise today?" ”

"What are these words! If you don't spoil my things, I'll make such a fuss? Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to people like you, since the little girl will come to repair tomorrow, I'll come tomorrow...... Don't talk nonsense about the studio's not opening up, I'm afraid that she will break my embroidery screen, in case you let her go, where can I settle accounts with her? Anyway, I'm going to have to watch her fix it with my own eyes! Let's go, I won't look at your old face......"

With that, Zhao Shirong snorted disdainfully and turned to leave.

"This man is really ......"

Todd didn't know what to say about him, waved his hand, asked the man to step back first, picked up the piece of satin embroidered with a lotus bud on the table, paced back and forth a few times, and finally picked up the phone and reported truthfully to Kyoto.

“…… What do you think of this? ”

"Just do as you say. The horizontal and vertical are not bad for this money, if the embroidered screen is perfect, pay her an additional bonus. The key to retaining people is to pay attention. From the microphone came a voice that was as warm and polite as ever.

"Cheng, then I have counted this matter."

Toddford ended the call and let out a long breath.

It would be best to get the boss's clear instructions, otherwise, he would always feel that he had no bottom in his heart.

……

When the brother and sister arrived home, Father He had already returned.

In the afternoon, when there was no work on the docks, he went home early and cut the wood, intending to build a shelf for the autumn eggplant vines in the yard, so as not to climb the wall and go next door.

With the same area and rent in the suite, the first floor has a small courtyard with more than ten square meters, which wins the hearts of their family. Not only is it convenient to dry clothes, carry heavy objects to avoid the fatigue of climbing stairs, but also plant some green onions, ginger, garlic and seasonal vegetables at the root of the wall. The only drawback is that it is easy to return to the tide on rainy days, but the rainy days in a year are only one or two months, and the boil will pass.

He's father's craftsmanship is very good, thirty years of old carpenter, but unfortunately in the furniture factory, only know that the head is boring and hard, and the credit is all won by the people above, in the end, conscientious for decades, ushered in the hard state, cold three words: no culture.

The two of them never thought that the furniture factory would give their family much compensation, but as a dormitory divided by a dual-income family, it was finally taken back by the factory, and the loss in their hearts can be imagined.

And that's not even the saddest part.

Two days ago, the news that "the furniture factory is ready to be restructured and all staff dormitories will be transferred to private to its regular employees" came out of the neighborhood, which was called a blow to the head.

After He Wei heard the news, she immediately figured out the reason why her parents were laid off: nine times out of ten, insiders learned the news early and wanted to occupy more public housing before the policy of privatization of public housing came out. As a result, the father and mother of He, who had no background, no connections, and three honest friends, decisively became victims.

If she can figure it out, how can Father and Mother not figure it out?

Therefore, Father He, who has always been a quiet man, has become more and more silent since that moment, and he hardly speaks much in front of people, and occasionally laughs in front of his own family.

No, when the dock is not alive, other porters will form a circle to touch a few pai gow and a few pairs of studs, and he will mention them in a teacup and go home directly.

He Mu got up early and went out in the dark, and there was no time to clean up the house, he was a big man, holding a mop and a feather duster, and cleaning a small house of more than 20 square meters.

Next, he brought a few dried and degreased oak sticks from nowhere, made a new dining table for the family, and made a bedside table for each of the two children.

For the rest of the work, he plans to make a chicken coop.

In the spring of the next year, the family is going to raise a few chickens, and the wild chicken grass in the yard grows so luxuriantly that it is a waste not to raise chickens.

As for the leftovers, they are used to build a shelf for the eggplant.

He Wei squatted under the eaves, watching Father He's hands and feet numb nails on the smooth and shiny wooden strips, and couldn't help but say: "Dad, when our family has saved enough money, we will open a wood art shop for you, it will definitely be very popular." ”

He's father smiled, and he was joking when his daughter.

He Wei pouted, she wasn't joking. But it's true that the family has no money. I can't help but think of that silk painting, and I don't know how much money I can exchange......

[As long as the appraisal is in the Yongqing period, the prevailing transaction price on the market is 50,000 to 100,000. Of course, if it is from the hands of famous artists, it is a different matter, and it is not impossible to speculate to millions or tens of millions. 】

Well, He Wei sighed. She is not a celebrity, at least not a celebrity recognized by this era.

However, it is also worth taking 30 yuan for 50,000 to 100,000 yuan.

At that time, she will go to Yuxiu Pavilion to pick up some embroidery work, and she will steadily enter the project every month, and the life at home will slowly get better.
