CHAPTER XXXVII
When she met the Wang sisters again, she was already followed by Chen Nanying, and Cui Yuzhu couldn't help but sigh secretly that things were gathering like others, and they actually got together.
Fortunately, the time has come, and I don't have time to think about it. Each of them went to get two registration cards, and was guided into the examination room.
In fact, this selection has the same meaning as the spring test, and the male has the spring test to win the country; Women have flowers to choose, in order to give women the opportunity to show their talents.
It's just that......
Cui Yuzhu found a problem, the rules say that a person can apply for two subjects, but the twelve subjects start at the same time, so how can a person be divided into two to participate in two competitions?
Cui Yuzhu entered the examination room of the female red department with questions, and the examiner was also a female official in the palace, about twenty years old, and she was the secretary.
After the women saluted, they listened to the female official in the clothes say: "My name is Liu Lanqin, you can call me Aunt Lanqin." β
"The embroidery of the female red subject examination school, the topic is flowers, regardless of what flowers, it must be embroidered in an hour. Considering that some people are not good at this, if you quit now, it is not too late to take the name brand and go to another department. β
Cui Yuzhu: "......??" β
The so-called reporting of two subjects turned out to be like this, which is also too unbelievable. So if it's arithmetic, and after reading the questions, you find it too difficult, can you still give up the exam and go to the next one?
It's too much of a joke......
Cui Yuzhu was a little disappointed, she was going to do arithmetic.
Chen Nanying sat on her left-hand side, and the two glanced at each other, but neither moved.
She said softly: "Cousin, while it's still too late, you can go to the next subject." β
Cui Yuzhu said: "What did my sister say, this hasn't started yet, how can you retreat before fighting?" β
Chen Nanying shook his head and persuaded: "It's not a shame to give up the exam, it's a shame to lose." β
It's not even better, she actually thinks that she has won, and what she said is to ask Cui Yuzhu not to be self-conscious.
Cui Yuzhu smiled softly, "Speaking of which, I have seen my sister's double-sided embroidery, but my sister has not seen my stitching, and it is too early to say whether to win or lose." β
Hearing this, Chen Nanying was a little surprised, but she didn't believe that she could win herself, and only thought that she was hard-mouthed.
"I persuaded me with good intentions, and my sister didn't appreciate it."
After it was decided that they would not leave the venue, the rest of the people distributed a set of colorful needles and threads.
Cui Yuzhu did not move after getting the silk thread, but composed the picture first.
The title is flowers, which sounds simple, but it is difficult to embroider. There are so many kinds of flowers, how can you win the championship if you just embroider a pattern?
But there is only one hour to spare, and it is unrealistic for her to embroider a long flower.
But if you don't draw it in advance, how do you get the needle?
After thinking about it, Cui Yuzhu plans to win by surprise.
She first traced the pattern, and soon half a pillar of incense passed, Chen Nanying over there had already begun to put down the needle, and Cui Yuzhu was still busy matching colors and picking lines.
Although she is usually slow, but this time it is a competition, she is full of spirit, and her hand movements are also much neater.
She was embroidering a large lotus flower, which looked bigger than her face alone, and it didn't seem strange from a distance, but if you looked closer, you could see the wonder of the stitches.
I saw Cui Yuzhu embroidering lotus petals, every stitch she dropped was in the same position, each layer was the same length of stitches, the needle and the needle were close together, and the other layer was connected to the stitches of the first layer, so that the embroidered petals were more lifelike.
Then there are lotus leaves, and she drops two long and three short, each row of different lengths, but the stitches are connected, staggered into ripples. Coupled with the staggered color, you can see the difference between the lotus leaves when you look at it from the side.
In the end, the water used a straight line with uneven lengths, and the water rippled as if in front of me.
Cui Yuzhu knew that if it was just such a lotus picture, how could it be better than Chen Nanying's double-sided embroidery?
She's going to surprise her.
Cui Yuzhu then embroidered a little Buddha with a quiet and peaceful expression and an amiable smile standing in the middle of the lotus heart. The baby Buddha looks like a baby, wearing a golden robe, with ribbons on his sleeves, cinnabar on his eyebrows, and his hands are folded with his eyes closed.
Cui Yuzhu embroidered the little Buddha. She once heard her mother say that there are scriptures that the Buddha Rulai was born with a Buddha light, looked ahead, walked seven steps, and gave birth to lotus step by step.
The so-called "at the beginning of man, nature is good", in fact, everyone is born as a Buddha, like the Buddha is compassionate and innocent, and retains a childlike innocence, only later after seeing the sins of the world, only then did he slowly have desires and desires.
Cui Yuzhu means this.
Embroidery female red originally requires a lot of patience, which is suitable for a quiet person like Cui Yuzhu. For Chen Nanying, female celebrity is only one of her talents, and it is impossible for her to spend so much energy on it on weekdays, not to mention that double-sided embroidery is quite painstaking, and it is already great to be able to learn this kind of level.
She originally embroidered butterfly peony on one side and plum spring on the other, and she was proud in her heart, but when she caught a glimpse of Cui Yuzhu's embroidery, she felt a sigh in her heart and had an ominous premonition.
Why is the same colored line, Cui Yuzhu embroidered so vividly?
It's just that the hour is coming soon, and there is no room for further modifications. Chen Nanying was distracted, and was pricked by a needle without paying attention, and the blood beads almost stained the entire embroidery, and there were some flaws in the place where the needle was finally collected.
Cui Yuzhu tattooed the famous embroidery on the upper right corner of the embroidery, and also collected the needle at the end, and finally handed it in with the name tag.
She breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and glanced at Chen Nanying, and saw that her face was gloomy and didn't seem to be going very well.
This Cui Yuzhu is also very understandable, if there is a deviation in a needle, it will affect the entire embroidery. If it's okay in normal times, it can basically be remedied, but this is in the competition, and there is a time limit.
Therefore, judging from Chen Nanying's expression, it should be a big mistake.
It's probably cool.
I can't tell if it's schadenfreude, anyway, Cui Yuzhu is in a very good mood, and she wants to hum a song, so she brought it out on her face as soon as she was happy.
It's a pity that Chen Nanying is secretly annoyed, otherwise he would be angry when he sees it.
β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦
The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the selection of the director of the Taichang Division, and the results of the election have been released, and he is here to see the queen.
Empress Shangguan sat on the top, graceful and luxurious.
She asked, "How's it going?" β
"The leaders of the twelve sections have been decided, please let the queen take a look."
He took the works of the leaders who had been determined and presented them one by one.
Empress Shangguan smiled softly, "Oh? β
"Niangniang, please see, this is the first poem written by the first leader."
Empress Shangguan gave a look, and the female official beside her understood, took the piece of paper, and read eloquently: "People are idle and osmanthus flowers fall, and the night is quiet and the spring mountains are empty." The moonrise frightens the mountain birds, and the spring stream sings. β
Empress Shangguan nodded, "The artistic conception is good, and you can indeed be the leader." β
"Niangniang, look at it again, this is another embroidery."
The female officer first went over to look at the embroidery, which had already been framed, and then opened her mouth silently.
She took the embroidery, presented the work to Empress Shangguan, and said softly: "Niangniang, please take a look." β
Empress Shangguan looked at it and saw that this embroidery was about two feet long and one foot wide, embroidered with a pair of pond lotus.
She couldn't help but caress with her fingertips, and the strands of silk were intertwined and scattered. Only then did she realize that the lotus petal stitching method was unique, and it was embroidered with various silk threads to create a gradient color, connecting the clear water and the lotus leaves spread on the water surface, there was a sense of life.
The most surprising thing is the little Buddha standing on the lotus, the face is like a baby, but wearing a robe, holding a colorful silk on the shoulder, looking a little naΓ―ve, but it makes people feel quiet and peaceful.
The robe was embroidered with gold thread and red silk thread, which was glittering and sacred. I have to be amazing, what a coincidence!
Not only is the composition novel, but with so many stitch blessings, it doesn't look like it's embroidered, but like it's painted.
