Chapter 294 Cannon Fodder in the Psychic Text 6
What made Gu Xiaoxiao even more excited was that because the current research topic of the Department of Archaeology was related to the ancient craft embroidery of silk fabrics, they followed the teacher to visit those masters who had mastered unique embroidery skills.
In the past, Yu Zhuqing was ostracized, and the thesis could only be done by herself, and no one wanted to be in the same group as her, but now it has become an opportunity for Gu Xiaoxiao. She decided to find her previous master and help her embroidery work in exchange for money by learning the name.
H city inherited the Suzhou embroidery, a variety of embroidery and stitching has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage, can master three or four embroidery methods most of the old embroidery. Embroidery is a job that hurts the eyes, so when the embroidery girl gets older, the embroidery work will be greatly reduced.
At the age of one or twenty years old, Gu Xiaoxiao can skillfully and independently do double-sided embroidery, and he can also rank on the top in H City. With the change of the times, the craftsmanship of the ancestors gradually disappeared, and when it was on the verge of extinction, it became scarce and expensive, and became the new favorite of the rich. If Gu Xiaoxiao can find a relationship and receive a suitable embroidery job, it is not wishful thinking to make a lot of money from it.
With a money-making livelihood, Gu Xiaoxiao was much more brisk, found an opportunity to quit her previous boss, and waited until she changed into clean and tidy clothes and went out.
During this period, there were several waves of people looking for fault, but Gu Xiaoxiao pushed them back, but when the situation was not right, she would also retreat in time or find a place with a lot of people, so that they could cast a mouse trap.
Gu Xiaoxiao's ability to adapt to changes has made her life much better. In order to prevent the diary from being taken away by Shi An'an, Gu Xiaoxiao bought a lock and locked the diary in a drawer.
When Gu Xiaoxiao picked a seat these days. With the criterion of staying away from Shi An'an and Wen Rensiqi, he avoided the two of them, and changed the situation of the previous threesome. Without Yu Zhuqing's company. Shi An'an is not good at being alone with Wen Ren Siqi for too long, so he can only sit with other girls, and the position next to Wen Ren Siqi has become a popular competition among the girls in the class.
Blue face and trouble, Gu Xiaoxiao watched coldly, I really don't know what is good about this kind of boy who seems to be hearty and sticky. He smiled at every girl, and he did not decisively refuse in the face of confession. When he liked it, An'an didn't dare to chase hard, but he only dared to pick an unpleasant person like Yu Zhuqing.
Without Yu Zhuqing, Shi An'an was not so comfortable staying in the dormitory. She looks worse than Kong Pianran, but she is much better than Liu Li and Gong Xinmiao. Women always have to secretly compete with each other, Xiao Lu is neutral, Liu Li and Kong Pianran are close. Shi An'an has a better relationship with Gong Xinmiao and Yu Zhuqing. So in the dormitory dominates.
Now Gu Xiaoxiao ignores anyone, making the atmosphere in the dormitory awkward.
Embroidery alley, in H City is also a historic alley, when the founding of the People's Republic of China was renamed Aiguo Lane, and later began to create urban characteristics, protect cultural heritage, so it changed back to this charming old name.
From Yu Zhuqing's memory, Gu Xiaoxiao found the person who came with the team to interview before. Embroidery on the edge of the West City. The renovation of the old city is in full swing because of the need to protect cultural heritage. That's why I didn't sweep here.
The pink walls and tiles overflowing with slanting flower branches, the road paved with bluestone slabs, and the old brass knocker of the vermilion door, Gu Xiaoxiao suddenly thought that he had traveled through time and space and returned to the Tianfeng Kingdom.
The elegant and quiet streets, as its name suggests, carry the fresh breath of a daughter's home. The sect number here is not like other places, which use rigid and rigid metal plates, but hang small vermilion signs.
Gu Xiaoxiao walked down the alley, stopped at the penultimate house, and reached out to gently buckle the door knocker.
Tuk tuk.
It only rang twice, and someone inside replied softly, Gu Xiaoxiao only thought it sounded good, but she couldn't learn that glutinousness.
The door opened, and what appeared in front of Gu Xiaoxiao was a young woman wearing a collar, underneath was a sea-blue horse-faced skirt, her hair was simply coiled together, and her face was as if she had come out of a painting.
"Auntie, I'm a student in the Department of Archaeology at Suhua University, and I'm here to find Granny Jiang."
Gu Xiaoxiao's tone was sincere, and after speaking, he bowed slightly to show his respect.
The woman looked at Gu Xiaoxiao, and saw that she was immature and student-like and polite, so she opened the door and bowed and said, "Mother-in-law is embroidering, come in." ”
"Thank you, Auntie."
Gu Xiaoxiao took advantage of her sweet mouth, and the woman showed a warm smile and led her inside.
Yu Zhuqing had already been here once, so when Gu Xiaoxiao came in, he always felt that the scene in front of him was familiar.
Granny Jiang is over 60 years old, holding an embroidered screen with reading glasses, focusing on threading needles and threads in the sun, her fingers are slender and shiny like jade, and she does not look old at all. Just looking at these hands, no one would have thought that this was an old woman.
For the embroiderer, these hands are more precious than the face, and it is necessary to pay attention to maintenance and maintain the flexibility of the joints, so that when the embroidery needle is lifted, the fingers will not be sensitive and will not make the wrong stitch.
The woman who came in with Gu Xiaoxiao walked very lightly, stood aside and quietly watched Granny Jiang embroidery, but did not make a sound, and Gu Xiaoxiao was also silent on the side.
After finishing embroidering a leaf, Granny Jiang put down the embroidery needle, helped her reading glasses, glanced at Gu Xiaoxiao, and said to the woman next to her: "Hongyu, who is this little girl?" ”
"Master, she said that she was a student of Suhua University and had come before, so I brought her here."
"Oh, it turned out to be Suhua University, your teacher carried forward our Su embroidery, it's good. Alas, times are different, and now there are fewer young people who can move needles. ”
In order to take care of Gu Xiaoxiao, Granny Jiang tried her best to speak Mandarin, but she could still hear the local accent softly.
Gu Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and looked at the embroidery screen, the vivid peony flowers and the green leaves were still half a little way away.
The purpose of her trip is to apprentice, sister to do some embroidery work, Gu Xiaoxiao squatted down and looked at the embroidery screen carefully, and then said in a worshipful tone: "Granny Jiang's embroidery is really good, this is flat needle embroidery." ”
"You girl has a good eye."
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the embroidery screen with some nostalgia, and said in a regretful tone: "I can also do some superficial embroidery work, but now I use less space." ”
Hearing that Gu Xiaoxiao could embroider, Granny Jiang suddenly became interested: "Huh? You little girl can also embroider, not an old woman, it's funny. ”
Gu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and smiled slightly: "Where do you dare to fool you, I am indeed interested in embroidery, and I have embroidered some things, but it was all before I went to college." ”
"Hongyu, you go and get an embroidery stand again, then get some needles and threads, and let Xiao Nan embroider something for me."
"Okay." (To be continued......)
