Chapter 173: Missing a Bit of Beauty
From the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the space on the east side of the market is enclosed, and the west side of the market is still open.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Qingping and Li Yuanhao went to Pingcheng, and Zhou Xinmei took Qingyun to the market to open.
At ten o'clock, not long after the opening, the lady who had testified for Qingping came to Zhou Xinmei in a hurry.
"Big sister, I'll wait until you set up a stall, where is your daughter? Come or not today? ā
The eldest lady's surname is Zhang, she likes embroidery very much, and after she did the certificate that day, she came to Qingping several times and asked her for advice on embroidery.
Knowing that Qingping designs traditional clothes with national characteristics, and she also likes embroidery very much, Qin Lao specially introduced her to an old lady who said that she was from an embroidery family.
Qingping will take time to visit this old lady surnamed Gu who came back from overseas every year, and learned from her several famous embroidery stitches, especially her favorite Su embroidery, which I heard is her family's inheritance.
What Qingping used on her clothes was not one of the four famous embroideries taught to Aunt Zhang, but another well-known Bian embroidery.
Although Aunt Zhang's embroidery work is good, she has not learned it from others, so it looks good, but it lacks some beauty.
Because embroidery is labor-intensive, when Aunt Zhang asked her for advice and learning, Qingping hugged her and hired her to do the embroidery in the later stage.
Zhou Xinmei knew Qingping's plan, so she was very patient with Aunt Zhang, she looked at Aunt Zhang's latest finished product, picked up Qingping's embroidery on the clothes and compared it.
"Sister Zhang, you have made rapid progress, I think this time it is almost the same level as my Qingping."
Aunt Zhang also carefully compared, "This pattern and the stitches of the thread look similar, but I always feel that something is missing from my embroidery." ā
At home, when Zhou Xinmei saw Qingping's embroidery, Qingping would also give her a detailed explanation, and Zhou Xinmei would tell Aunt Zhang in detail what Qingping was talking about.
The two chatted for a while, and the number of customers in the market gradually increased, and Aunt Zhang reluctantly left.
After dinner in the evening, Zhou Xinmei showed Qingping the embroidery left by Aunt Zhang, "Qingping, look at it, how about Sister Zhang's embroidery, you are about to start school, can you let her do the embroidery work?" ā
The eighteenth or nineteenth day of the first month is about to start, and during the holidays, Qingping has almost no time to read, and Zhou Xinmei is very anxious.
Qingping looked at it, "I'll go find her tomorrow and teach her another lesson, it should be about the same." ā
The clothes are double-layered, the embroidery is only on the top layer, and the requirements for the inner stitching method are not high, and Qingping only hopes that Aunt Zhang can control the stitching and color matching outside.
"Mother, there is another matter, I want you to sell clothes in the provincial mall, do you think it's okay?"
"Ah, the provincial mall? IāI'm afraid I can't! ā
Zhou Xinmei is only forty-two years old this year, it turned out that because of that illness, her spirit was not good, she has eaten well recently, her mood is good, and her face has recovered a lot.
During the Chinese New Year, Qingping made her a jujube short pie and dark green tweed coat, the pants were straight-leg pants, and she also bought a pair of thick low-heeled leather shoes.
Out of the stall today, Qingping specially asked her to wear a pie, straight-leg pants and leather shoes, just looking at the sales of today's clothes, Qingping knew that her effect was good.
The rest is to clean up her hair, and then train and train Mandarin with the characteristics of the province, which is a little more official than her own dialect, Qingping has considered this and it is not difficult, but it is rare to be afraid of how to build her self-confidence.
