Yuezhou Bay, half moon sky up and down, lying down and listening to the sound of study. The writing peak is outstanding, and the tiger and lion elephant are in the mouth. The auspicious dragon takes off, Danfeng rises to the sun, and the horse port is rushing.

Yuezhou Bay is located in the southwest of Tai'an County, Zhanghua Creek, Taohua Creek in the village around a big bend, flowing into the word "moon", and separated out a sandbar and got its name. It has an area of 11 square kilometers, bordering Bailu Village in the east and Luqiu, Dongyuan and Luofeng Village in the west.

Although time has passed and thousands of years have passed, time seems to still be frozen in the Tang and Song dynasties. Courtyards, carved beams, green tiles, bamboo forests, stone bridges, ancient villages, rock carvings......

Peach Blossom Creek is crystal clear, just like the Yellow River's "several" shaped jade belt around the village, reciprocating and reciprocating, reluctant to give up. The cliff carvings by the stream are thought-provoking and nostalgic. There are two ancient buildings in the village that are quite famous, one is the ancestral hall of the Zhang family. It is old, generous, and antique. Although it is not magnificent, it is also unique and evocative.

The climate of Yuezhou Bay is pleasant, the four seasons are distinct, Li Garden is everywhere, the hot springs are abundant, and the Peach Blossom Creek is clean and beautiful. Natural and fresh natural scenery, original local colors, simple and industrious folk customs.

The road to her aunt's house has always been remembered, the afternoon path is long and mysterious, with the laziness of a half-awake nap, and a little cold and serene of floating ancient trees.

At the end of the path, my aunt was already leaning against the doorframe and waiting.

Seeing her aunt's familiar figure, Lan Yu happily greeted her, "Auntie-I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you......"

My aunt hugged the blue eucalyptus, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of kindness, "The eucalyptus is getting more and more beautiful now, come into the house ......"

Entering the door, there is a winding verandah, and the cobblestones under the steps are paved into a corridor. In the yard, there are large pear trees and plantains. A gap suddenly opens under the courtyard wall, the clear spring is a faction, the ditch is only a few feet, poured into the wall, goes around the edge of the stairs to the front yard, and circles under the bamboo.

As soon as Lan Eucalyptus entered the inner room, he saw the embroidery frame placed in the center of the hall, and Lan Yu said to her aunt, "Aunt, I want to see your embroidery ......."

"Okay...... 55-year-old embroidery lady Lan Xiangye sat in front of the embroidery frame with a smile, wearing reading glasses, looking focused, her hands were flexibly matched on the embroidered cloth, and the small embroidery needles quickly shuttled up and down, and the lifelike flowers gradually bloomed under her hands......

"This is the peony - the national color and fragrance, the king of flowers......" Lan Eucalyptus sighed in surprise.

When you look closely, you can see that the peony is gorgeous in color, the jade smile is fragrant, it is chic, magnificent, it is about to open in the sun, and it is dazzling to absorb the caress of the sun. The sunlight on the embroidered picture does not seem to shine directly, as if it is diffused in the light mist, and it exudes a magnificent beauty in a blur.

"It's beautiful...... Auntie, I also want to learn Suzhou embroidery. Lan Eucalyptus said coquettishly.

Lan Xiangye pondered for a moment, "I can teach you, I don't know if you can persevere." Suzhou embroidery is a very fine work, which is outlined by the embroiderer with a needle and a needle, and there is no opportunistic technique. This kind of handmade handicraft is a kind of work that can calm down and cultivate one's life. I'll teach you how to split the line first. ”

Confused, Eucalyptus asked, "What is a split line?" ”

Lan Xiangye continued to tell, "Splitting the thread is the most unique activity in Suzhou embroidery. It is to divide a flower thread into two, four and eight strands according to the thread...... The high quality and inferiority of Suzhou embroidery are very related to the splitting skills. If the thread is split evenly, the pin row will be flat, and the line light will be bright. On the contrary, it will affect the embroidery effect. ”

Xiangye said and showed the unique skill of splitting the thread: first pinch one end of the flower thread with the thumb and index finger, then use the thumb and index finger of the other hand to pull the thread to one side, reverse the thread and loosen it, and then pinch the two ends of the thread with the thumb and index finger of both hands, stretch the thread, gently pick the thread with the ring finger, and divide it into one-half, one-quarter, and one-eighth according to the thickness required for the embroidery...... The movements are light, skillful and agile, which makes the blue eucalyptus breathtaking.
