Chapter 132: Being slapped in the face by the facts
"Well, okay, my mother likes red and green on weekdays, or you can use this red cloth, and then use light-colored threads to embroider lotus flowers, it must also look good." Zhang handed over a piece of bright red cloth.
"Okay." Bai Jinli nodded, and silently complained about Mrs. Li's aesthetics in her heart.
No wonder the original owner's dress was so pompous and wonderful, they were all inherited Mrs. Li.
No problem.
"Meng'er, what about you, what do you want to embroider?" Zhang asked Bai Meng gently.
"Originally, I wanted to try to embroider something for my sister-in-law or grandma, but my sister-in-law and grandma have both, or I should embroider an abacus for Mo'er, anyway, he likes arithmetic." Bai Meng thought seriously.
"......" Bai Jinli.
I can't see it, Bai Meng, you have a big brain!
How did a quiet and gentle girl come up with this idea?
Is it really not against the harmony to embroider a black abacus on the sachet? Is it serious?
"Well, it's okay, Mo'er will definitely be happy if she can receive your gift." Zhang's face was still gentle, and he was not half different.
He also found an off-white cloth and handed it to Bai Meng to continue to speak: "Mo'er is suitable for this color, so you can use this fast cloth." â
"Okay, mother."
"......" Bai Jinli.
Is she rare and weird, or is Bai Meng and Zhang's mother and daughter more strange?
"Pear, Meng'er, the first step in making the sachet is to make the shape of the sachet, you see my gestures......"
Zhang said while making it by hand, her hands are really skillful, and she knows that the two of them are learning it for the first time, so the movements are very slow.
Her fingers are long, her voice is soft and delicate, and her hands are nimble like swallows.
A very ordinary piece of cloth quickly took shape after passing through her hands and scissors.
Then she began to simply trace the lines on it, and after she finished drawing, she looked up at Bai Meng and Bai Jinli and asked them.
"Well, do you understand?"
"Well, I understand, mother." Bai Meng nodded and learned in a good way.
"Maybe you get it?!" Bai Jinli also nodded cooperatively, and then took the cloth and scissors and began to compare.
Gesture and gesture to the cloth...... She cut it into strips of cloth.
(tīŧŋt)
After looking at the eyes of Zhang and Bai Meng, Bai Jinli glanced at the beautiful half-finished product in Bai Meng's hand, and was even more embarrassed.
"Heh, I really understand it, and I understand the steps, but this cloth, scissors and my hands have their own ideas, and I am also very helpless."
ââĻâĻ It's okay, pear, it's normal to do this for the first time. Zhang comforted her good-naturedly.
"Yes, sister-in-law, you try again, the next one will definitely be done, I believe you." Bai Meng also had a sincere look of encouragement.
As for what the two people thought in their hearts, only they knew it.
"Well, I'll try again." Bai Jinli took the cloth that Zhang handed over again, tried again, and then ......
Still failed.
Unlike last time, the last time the cloth was cut into strips of cloth by her, and this piece was a small piece of cloth slag.
"......" Zhang and Bai Meng.
"It's okay, failure is the mother of success, give me the cloth, I can continue to try again." Bai Jinli does not give up self-comfort.
Then she was slapped in the face by the facts.
It seems that some things really need talent to do, and she really has zero talent for handmade products.
What she learned in her mind is that her hands always don't listen to her calls, what can she do? She's desperate too!
qaq~
"Pear, let's do it, I'll teach you by hand." Zhang's temper is really good, and when she saw this, she didn't even get angry.
This cultivation, this conduct, is really rare, right?
If this is her Bai Jinli deity, if she can't teach someone to write, and she can't teach it three times, she will definitely be crazy with anger, and she can't wait to press that person to the ground and rub it.
"yes, okay." Bai Jinli didn't want to give up on herself, so she nodded in agreement.
Then Zhang squeezed her hand and began to teach her the technique, and then pinched her hand to hold the scissors scissors.
On the way, Bai Jinli's hand moved restlessly, and it took Zhang a lot of strength to finally take her to cut out the bottom of a sachet.
"Sister-in-law, if it's really your skill, this cloth is really good." Bai Jinli was very satisfied.
"Uh, hehe." Zhang said he didn't want to speak.
This thing was definitely the worst thing she had ever made since she picked up the cloth and needlework, and she didn't want to admit that it was from her hand at all, inexplicably!
Look at what Bai Meng did, although it was also the first time to do it, but in the end, it was her own daughter, follow her, she did it very well, she was very satisfied.
As for the sister-in-law, hey, it hurts to think about it.
Although Zhang was very congested, she was still gentle and patient on the surface, and she began to embroider things after teaching the two of them.
The monkey on the pole is not difficult for Zhang to embroider at all.
She couldn't remember when she had learned these things, but she picked up the needle and thread, and when she had a plan, she quickly had steps in her head, and her hands worked well.
After her embroidery was completed, she turned her head and looked at Bai Meng's, well, the abacus embroidery was not bad, quite compact and beautiful.
Look at Bai Jinli's again, and then Zhang's expression instantly froze.
"Pear, is your embroidery really a lotus flower?"
"yes, you don't think it's like it, do you? Hehe, actually, I don't think so. Bai Jinli smiled weakly.
The lotus flower that she said was good, obviously she embroidered it according to the lines she had described, but why did it become a messy abstract painting now?
If you have to say what that thing looks like, Bai Jinli, who is a heavy handicap, thinks that it looks like a colorful bun.
It's still the kind of ultra-freak bag.
I want to cry even more!

"It's okay sister-in-law, didn't you say it all, failure is the mother of success, come on." Bai Meng looked at her a little depressed, and couldn't help but open her mouth to encourage.
"That's true, but you haven't heard the other one, have you? Mistakes are the father of right! "Bai Jinli.
"......" Zhang and Bai Meng.
"And didn't you notice that the of Success got lost with me?" Bai Jinli felt very bald.
"......" Zhang and Bai Meng.
It makes so much sense that they can't refute it.
"Forget it, let's do it for today."
After sitting and embroidering for so long, and the embroidery didn't look like a thing, Bai Jinli planned to take a break and take a breath.
Zhang has already started sewing sachets, and if nothing else, he will be able to successfully sew the sachets today!
And Bai Meng is the same, putting the finishing touches on it.
Bai Jinli said, "You continue to sit here and sew, and I'll go to the kitchen to pour a bowl of water." â
Then he went out and saw that there was no one in the kitchen, so he flashed into the space and took out the fan and embroidery thread and candles stored in the space.
In addition, there are also incense herbs to be contained in the sachet.
After putting all the things she had taken out into her clothes, she poured out a bowl of water and walked to her house.
"Alas, pear, why did you come and pour water yourself? Are Zhang and Bai Meng lazy again? Mrs. Li asked as soon as she saw her.
"No, mother, I have to come by myself, and after sitting for a long time, I want to get up and walk around."
"Oh, it's not good." Mrs. Li nodded and went to stare at Bai Jasmine again.
Bai Jinli quickly walked into her room, closed the door casually, and put the poured water on the table to speak.
"Sister-in-law, I almost forgot to tell you something. Do you remember the Zhong Ling Embroidery Workshop I mentioned to you earlier?
When I went yesterday, Mrs. Zhong Ling gave me some fan noodles, saying that she needed to embroider something on it, and then she would sell it as a high-end finished product.
She admired your embroidery very much, so she asked me to bring you these fans and embroidery threads, and when you finished embroidering, they were sold in embroidery and spinning.
When the time comes, you will be given two cents of the money you bought. As soon as I heard that it wasn't a bad thing, I agreed to it for you. â
"What? Two cents? That's too much, right? Zhang felt a little sudden.
The high-end finished fan is very valuable, not to mention two silver, right? That's something that only a rich lady can afford.
They don't care about the price, they only care about whether the thing is good-looking, whether it is exquisite or not, and whether it is worthy of their identity.
If the price of a fan is calculated at five taels, it will be ten taels of silver if you sell two of them.
If she divides the two cents, she can get two taels of silver, which is a dream.
"Not much, the reason why the high-end finished fan is valuable is mainly in the uniqueness and delicacy of the embroidery, followed by other materials.
Mrs. Zhong Ling said, you are the best embroiderer she has ever seen, and you are worth the price.
And I'm afraid it takes a lot of effort to embroider these things, and you don't take advantage of them carefully. Bai Jinli opened his mouth to analyze.
Moreover, it is definitely more difficult to embroider this thing than to embroider a handkerchief or something, and it takes a long time to consume and it costs eyes, so it is indeed not an advantage of Zhang's.
"Pear, this ...... How can I thank you enough. Zhang was a little excited.
"You can embroider these things perfectly, which is the best thank you to me. I have other collaborations with Zhong Ling, and with the help of you, the cooperation will be smoother. â
"Well, I understand the pear, I'll take it seriously. Other than that, I'll only take one point of profit, and I'll give you the rest. Zhang nodded solemnly.
"That's fine. By the way, these are a few candles that you use when you embroider things at night. After all, this fan is precious, and you have to see it clearly to embroider it. Bai Jinli handed over the candle again.
"Thank you, Pear." Zhang took it and was very grateful.
A few days ago, Bai Meng and Bai Mo used all their pocket money to buy her two candles, saying that they were afraid that she would stay up too long at night, waste her eyes, and move her to tears.
Now the sister-in-law even sent her candles, or so much, she she, she, she...... What should he say?
"No thanks, by the way, sister-in-law, how do I think you know a lot about group fans? Have you been exposed to these things before? Bai Jinli asked with some curiosity.
