Chapter 156: Learning Art
Mu Li pursed his lips and smiled, thinking that the Pinxuan Pavilion could be restored to its current appearance by relying on their own craftsmanship and their own research and development, and they had gone farther and farther. How do you say that Song Qing still has to call himself a master, Mu Li is a little proud.
"Seniors, that's because they don't know the meaning of your craftsmanship, it's their loss. You can rest assured that as long as you are willing to accept me as your apprentice, I will definitely keep your craft from being lost. Mu Li really wants to learn sugar painting, which can not only be used to decorate cakes, but also a kind of cultural transmission.
The old man only wanted to find a man to inherit his craft, and his daughter's family was always going to marry, and it was inconvenient to show up after following her husband's family.
"Girl, I understand your kindness, I should go shopping, don't stop standing in my way here." The old man lowered his head and continued to paint, and each sugar painting was vivid and cute.
Chu Ziyi couldn't get used to the old man's attitude, and it was too much to talk to the imperial sister-in-law like this. "You old man, do you know who this one in front of you is, let you teach it to give you face, don't know what to do."
Chu Ziyi pulled Mu Li and was about to leave the stall, he originally thought that the sugar painting was good-looking, so he came to see it a few times, but he didn't know that this old man was a stubborn person, which was really disappointing.
"Thirteen, don't be rude." Mu Li asked Chu Ziyi to let go of his hand and return to the old man's stall.
"The little woman just likes to make some pastries, so she opened a new Yixiang Fang, presumably not as famous as Pinxuan Pavilion. However, the eldest son of Song in Pinxuan Pavilion is a good friend of mine, and many of their pastries are made by me or sold after improvement. Mu Li didn't want to show off how good his pastry making skills were, but he just wanted his seniors to know that he was no worse than any of the masters in Pinxuan Pavilion, and he could teach himself to paint sugar paintings with confidence.
Chu Ziyi crossed his hands and looked at the old man with a proud look. Hmph, look at what you think of us now, we are not casual people, if it is the princess who said my imperial sister-in-law, it will definitely scare your old life. "Well, awesome."
When the old man heard that it was someone from Yixiangfang, he stopped working on his craft. He knew about Yixiangfang, it was said that it was opened by a young woman, but he had never seen it. When people are old, they have no interest in these pastries and desserts, and they only love to play with sugar paintings to cultivate their sentiments.
"Isn't it you, the shopkeeper of Yixiangfang?" The old man was a little excited, he also wanted to go over to find the shopkeeper of Yixiangfang, but when he heard that it was a female doll, he didn't go. You must know that this craft is passed on to men and not to women, and you can't be casual about the things of your ancestors.
"It's me."
"It's a powerful character, and all the pastries I have never heard of at a young age are amazing, and the old man admires it." The old man kept giving Mu Li a thumbs up, he had lived here for so many years, and he really had never seen such a young woman who could support a pastry shop on her own.
He has no doubts about Mu Li's craftsmanship, but it is a bit incredible for a shopkeeper to come to learn this sugar painting, and he is still a girl, which is the most important thing. The old man's brows were furrowed, he was hesitating whether to make an exception for Mu Li, after all, he didn't have much time left, and he had no heirs to inherit.
Chu Ziyi couldn't hold his breath, he confessed and still didn't make up his mind, this old man didn't have a problem with Lao Tzu. "Old man, have you thought about it, there will be no such shop after this village. When the time comes, you want us to learn, and we don't want to learn it. ”
", a half-hearted person like you, my old man is not uncommon." Chu Ziyi's words made the old man very angry, he was looking for an apprentice, not for anger, so why should he be wronged.
Mu Li saw that a good thing was about to be muddyed by Chu Ziyi, "Okay, don't talk more." Otherwise, you won't have to think about Yixiangfang's pastries in the future. ”
"Oh, sister-in-law, I was wrong. You can scold me, but you can't stop me from eating the pastries you made. "Since Chu Ziyi ate the pastries made by Mu Li, he has looked down on the so-called pastries made by the imperial chef in the palace.
Mu Li couldn't help laughing, this kid is just so scared. A little bit of food scared him, which is too unproductive.
"Senior, I won't force you. But I really want to learn, if you figure it out, you can go to Yixiangfang to find me, I'm waiting for you at any time. Mu Li knew that old-timers like this must not fight with them, otherwise they would only eat behind closed doors.
The old man did not speak, but took the stall and went home.
"Imperial sister-in-law, why should you bother with such a stubborn old man." Chu Ziyi didn't understand why Mu Li wanted to please this stinky old-timer, and besides, Mu Li's craftsmanship was not bad, and the absence of him would not affect Yixiangfang's business.
Chu Ziyi, a person who lives in the palace without worrying about food and clothing, will not understand the difficulty of life and the joy of life. You must know that adding a little art to the pastry will not only improve the quality of the whole pastry by several grades, but also attract customers more. The most important thing is that Mu Li wants to wait for Chu Lingyi's time to make a different cake for him to celebrate.
Mu Li believed that this senior would come to Yixiangfang to find him in a short time, because in this city, there was no one more suitable to be his apprentice than Mu Li. Mu Li's creativity and ideas are the most avant-garde, and she can better carry forward the sugar painting, and even pass it on.
"Okay, let's not mention this nerve-wracking thing, I'll let someone send you back to the palace." Chu Ziyi left the palace without permission, Mu Li was afraid that the people in the palace would be anxious, so he thought about sending him back, but Chu Ziyi turned his head and ignored Mu Li.
"The imperial sister-in-law hates me so much, could it be because the words I just said made the old man unhappy?" Chu Ziyi pouted, looking aggrieved.
Mu Li stepped forward and touched Chu Ziyi's head, "Oh, why are you so stubborn like this kid." If I can't find you for a while, all those who serve you will suffer, can you bear it? ”
Mu Li knew that Chu Ziyi liked life outside the palace, but after all, he was born in the royal family. This is providence, something that cannot be changed, and he must endure all this.
"Imperial sister-in-law, you can't take me in for one night, I really don't want to go back, you know how boring it is." After knowing the excitement outside the palace, Chu Ziyi was naturally tired of life in the palace. "Okay, I'll listen to you, just go back."
"This is a good thirteen, when the imperial sister-in-law's school opens, I will definitely invite you to come."
"Really? This is what you said, and you must not go back. ”
Chu Ziyi's temperament has always been so simple, and it is this kind of temperament that Mu Li is willing to befriend him. In other words, it was other people in the palace, and Mu Li didn't bother to make friends with them. Under Mu Li's persuasion, he finally persuaded Chu Ziyi to return to the palace, but it is estimated that the people around him will inevitably be punished.
