Chapter 6 The opening of the embroidery room
In the following time, all five members of the family had jobs. Foucault went out with a series of things such as the design of the embroidery room drawn by Melanza, the embroidery tool drawing, and the task of finding a craftsman was entrusted to him. Foucault said at first that he wouldn't, for fear that he wouldn't be able to do it, but after seeing the design drawings of Melansha, his eyes lit up, and he rushed to do it.
He said that the general design drawings on the mainland can only be understood by the painter himself or those who are also craftsmen or architects, and other people feel a little like reading the book from heaven, and now this, when I first read it, I thought it was quite complicated, but if you look closely, you will find that it is very fine, and what is here and what is done there are very clear, and laymen can become experts as long as they have it. Therefore, in order to get over the addiction of architects, the embroidery room was handed over to him.
Morin seems to be the most idle, and has been invited to eat and drink every day lately, but in all seriousness, his work is the most important, and diplomacy tells us that eating and drinking is also a science.
More than half of the people who invited him were at the request of the ladies of the family. Melansha thought about it before Mo Lin went out, in case Mo Lin's introduction was not clear, so she wrote a report about the embroidery room, which was a brief introduction to the embroidery room and the type and role of the embroidery, etc., and asked Mo Lin to take it with her, and if there was a female relative, she would show her the information. Of course, in order to be more convincing, Melansha embroidered two purses with the word "longevity" for Morin and Dela, which represented the wish that they would live a long life, and put vanilla in them. This kind of grass is not rare, but it is expensive, and generally only those who have a little money at home can afford it. Its effect is to make people calm and calm, and they can sleep much more steadily at night. Of course, Melansha's family doesn't have it, but others do, it was sent by the city lord of Seymour, the reason, not to mention that everyone also knows, he really likes the moonlight unicorn, and now unless the distinguished guests come to the door to see it, he hides the painting tightly, and no one wants to see it.
If you haven't seen embroidery, Morin can let those people see the purse they are wearing, and tell them the meaning of the purse, so one spread ten, ten to hundreds (the transmission of the message, not the transmission of the purse), the physical advertisement played its role, conquered the hearts of N people with unstoppable charm, and made more people begin to look forward to the embroidery room, including many men.
For Maureen once accidentally said to a viscount who had a happy family: "Although embroidery is mainly done by women, men can learn it if they want to." I think that when my children, my wife, or my lover receive the items embroidered by my father, husband, and lover, I may say that you are a girl, but my heart must be very sweet, and I will think of you when I look at the embroidery. I'm also learning and want to embroider one for everyone in my family, and I hope they will be safe in the future. ”
This viscount is a well-known Gu family in Aba, and he is so painful to his wife and children that he is in pain to the bones, and Mo Lin happens to be this kind of person, so the relationship between the two is very good, and there are often endless words, as long as the two of them get together, you will find that the original duck can also be used to describe men. And Morin had a feeling with him at that time and sent this play, and the viscount was moved and wanted to learn with Morin, and someone agreed. The viscount had a wide circle of friends, and he thought it was a good thing, so he told his friends about it, and the topic of men learning embroidery soon spread throughout Aba, and then more men wanted to join the small group of Maureen and the viscount.
Morin has always thought that men are more yearning for strength, who will come to embroider if they have nothing to do, but he didn't expect that the current development of events was too unexpected for him. Therefore, in order to avoid being called 'the culprit who turned the whole Yaba man into a sissy', Morin decisively told them that it was better to go home and learn from his wife and children, so as to promote the relationship. As a result, he didn't have to accompany a group of men to do this fine work, but more people joined the embroidery ranks because of him.
When the Meilansha family first heard Morin talk about it, they all laughed so hard that they almost twitched, and Foucault even patted Morin on the shoulder and called 'talent, talent'.
Dana and Dela's job is simple, it's to develop their own temperament.
Melanza personally believes that the true charm of a person lies mainly in his unique temperament, which is attractive to both the same sex and the opposite sex. It's an intrinsic charisma.
Temperament refers to a person's relatively stable personality characteristics, style, and bearing. People with a cheerful, chic and generous personality often show an intelligent temperament; Cheerful, gentle and elegant, showing a noble temperament; People with a straightforward personality and a bold style have a rough temperament; The personality is gentle, the demeanor is beautiful and dignified, and the temperament is quiet...... Whether it is intelligent, noble, rough and quiet, it can produce a certain sense of beauty. On the contrary, a treacherous, aloof, or despicable temperament has no beauty but disgust.
In real life, a considerable number of people only pay attention to dressing up, and do not pay much attention to whether their temperament gives people a sense of beauty. It is true that beautiful looks, fashionable clothes, and careful grooming can give people a sense of beauty. But this kind of external beauty is always superficial and ephemeral, like the clouds in the sky, fleeting.
As aristocrats, Dana and Della have received an aristocratic education, whether it is dealing with people or words and deeds, talking and so on are very in place, coupled with the experience of life, they know how to trust and care more than other nobles, the only thing missing now is faith, that can make the heart really strong.
"Faith?" Mother and daughter looked at their baby puzzled, a little confused what it meant.
"Yes, it's faith." Melansha explained: "We have to give ourselves a belief in our hearts, so that we can move forward unswervingly towards this belief, even if we fall, we will not regret it when we are tired." ”
Just when the word faith came to mind, Melansha asked herself, what is my belief, what is the belief that can make me move forward without hesitation? When she saw her family, she knew that her belief was to make the whole family safe and happy. Let them no longer worry about life, no longer regret the past, and be able to go on happily.
"With faith, our spirit has sustenance, and our actions have meaning, and such a life will burn with courage and hope. A pot of *** water filled with sand *** became people's only hope, and being able to drink the water in the pot became their highest belief, so they survived. Faith doesn't have to be so tall and big that it can only be hung on the wall as an ornament, faith is often a simple and straightforward goal, as long as it is consistent, it becomes the highest form of strength, making us invincible, frustrated and courageous. ”
Looking at her mother and grandmother, Melansha smiled and asked, "Do you have faith?" ”
Looking at the firm smile on their child's lips, Dela and Dana suddenly felt that the child had grown up, and knew in their hearts that she must have had her own beliefs.
Dana stepped forward and hugged Melantha tightly, and said deeply, "Mom has always known what she wants, and now it is my belief." Before today, she thought that the family would be safe, but she didn't really take it as a belief, because the subconscious told her that there is a lot of helplessness in life, and the more you hope, the more it hurts. It's different now, what she thinks about is still peace, but this has become a belief, and she will continue to work hard for this belief.
"Baby, grandma has it too." There was also a look of determination on Della's face.
Outside the door, Foucault and Maureen, who had returned from something, looked at the three women inside and smiled.
It can be said that this small family of five people, who is a little lazy in spirit, has really had something that they want to protect desperately from today, that is, the small wish in their hearts that is not great at all: the family is safe and happy together.
Ever since he had finished his faith that day, he was like a clockwork engine, full of energy, not only in Melanza, but also in Dana, Dela, Maureen, and Foucault. Although it was a little tiring to work during the day, when the five of them gathered at home to rest at night, everyone's face was full of joy, and they told what they had done that day and what fun they had encountered, and the group of people had fun together. This has been going on for a month now, and tomorrow is when the embroidery room opens. Della said that the happiest person in the family was Morin, because after a month of eating and drinking, his figure had obviously begun to lose shape. Della let out the words, if her husband does not restore himself to the appearance of the jade tree Lingfeng, the two will sleep in separate rooms. Frightened, Mo Lin immediately began to lose weight exercises. But how do you think that the grandfather who is out of shape is much more handsome than the original grandfather, and when she told Dana about this, Mo Linle smoked, hugged her granddaughter and said that she had a vision, and Della said, This child hasn't woken up today, Khan.
In the evening, the five of them went to bed early, waiting for tomorrow's arrival.
The next day, at the junction of the noble district and the civilian area, which has not had many people, a lot of carriages were parked today (there is a kind of monster that looks like a horse, there is no attack power, it has fast feet and great strength, so the nobles generally use it to travel), and the most amazing thing is that most of the people who come down from the carriage are women. As you can see from the dress, they are all nobles. A large group of women of all kinds and thousands of gases stood together, brushing and attracting the attention of countless people, and the most of them were of course men. And these aristocrats are clearly coming to a place where the word 'daughter's fang' is written on the door plate, and they don't know what to do.
The matter of the embroidery room is only circulated among the nobles, and the commoners don't know about it, so it's a little dazzling to see so many nobles at once. I was more curious, what are these old ladies doing here? It is said that it is the junction of the civilian area and the aristocratic area, and it is more accurate that this is no different from the civilian area, because the average nobleman will not want to settle down here and feel that he has a shi identity.
The door of the embroidery room was kept closed and showed no sign of opening. The number of people outside gradually increased, and a group of acquaintances quickly chatted, and the most talked about was of course about the embroidery room.
In fact, when the embroidery room was halfway built, Mei Lansha thought about it, what if there were too many people, the grandmother and mother who taught embroidery, plus themselves at most three, Miss and Mrs. add up to hundreds, how to teach? Although the main purpose of building a show house is to make money and find something to do, since the embroidery room has been opened, it is necessary to carry forward the embroidery skill well, and must not be fooled around with the purpose of making money. If there are too many people who learn and too few people who teach, the effect will definitely be poor. She has such a big head for this problem, and she can't say to some people, "Hey, you don't need it." Khan, if you don't open the door, you will offend people first, and don't think about living in peace in the future.
Later, Dana told Melantha that embroidery is a matter of patience, and that at first everyone will try to come to participate, but after a while, half or even more people will not come, so there will be fewer people.
After listening to it, Mei Lansha was so excited that she thought about the problem too deeply, but forgot about the most superficial thing. Under the premise of no interest, few people can focus on doing one thing, these people are fresh, there must be walking, and the rest is really suitable for learning embroidery. When the time comes, if the remaining group of people want to learn, they will also teach them embroidery methods such as Shu embroidery and brocade.
When the sun was 45 degrees above the horizon, the door of the daughter's shop finally opened slowly. On the opposite side of the door stood three women, two women plus a girl, to be exact. The two women look very similar, they are mother and daughter at first glance, their golden wavy hair is simply tied up with a head rope and placed behind their heads, their eyes are sky blue, and the same light flashes in them (you can understand it as ¥¥ eyes), their faces are dignified and beautiful, their posture is elegant, and when they stand there, it seems that there are countless lights shrouded in them, which makes people dare not blaspheme.
The little girl next to her was very strange (--! His long black hair was tied into small braids and draped smoothly behind his back, and his long hair was shiny brighter than any silk. A pair of mysterious and magical black eyes set on the little face, and if you focus on her eyes, it seems as if the whole soul is going to be sucked in. I really wanted to see what she looked like, but unfortunately the little girl was veiled and kept out all exploratory eyes.
The three of them saw the person outside the door, and a bright smile appeared on their faces, and they said, "Welcome." In an instant, joy was contagious to everyone.
……
After the nobles who were interested in new things and good things entered the house, they looked left and right, and when they saw the layout and layout of the embroidery room, they all admired and felt another world. The joy in Mei Lansha's heart, what she wants is this effect, the oriental pattern of the room is completely different from the western pattern of the western continent, and most of the layout in the west is practical, and the surrounding is publicity. The embroidery room gives people a sense of restraint, elegance and quietness. The style is simply 108,000 miles apart. In addition, in order to highlight the classical atmosphere here, Melansha also expanded the yard, specially asked people to build pavilions, the path was paved with stones similar to pebbles, surrounded by flowers and plants, and there was a small lake with lotus flowers growing in the lake. Where did the lotus come from? Hehe, the lake without lotus leaves always feels like something is missing, so I took some seeds of a certain plant here and changed it slightly, and it became a plant similar to lotus flowers that can grow on water. I wanted to give this plant a nice name, but after thinking about it, I didn't come up with any fame, so I finally decided to call it Lotus.
From the outside of the courtyard, it feels normal, but as soon as people who are used to seeing their own environment enter here, the optic nerve is immediately strongly impacted. This makes them have a different idea when they watch it, I wonder if they can arrange their own house like this? Thoughts are usually accompanied by actions, and soon, my grandfather was surrounded by water.
"It's so beautiful here, are we going to learn embroidery here in the future?" Helen Weir, the lord's wife, asked Dana curiously.
"Yes, we'll be here from now on." Dana replied with a smile.
Helen looked at the whole house inside and out, and finally her eyes stayed on Melanza.
Looking at her shining eyes, Melansha's sweat, it seems that she is normal (and only their family thinks so), there is nothing to see, right?
"She's the black flower of your family, why do you want to cover your face?" Helen touched Melantha's head and said to Dana.
"Well, well, my Melansha's face is inconvenient to see." Dana was very annoyed, and he couldn't tell her that his baby was too charming, and he didn't want people to see her face easily, for fear that something would happen.
Helen covered her mouth, looked at Dyna's expression, and then looked at Mei Lansha, and her head flashed, and she understood. This child's black hair and black eyes are already a strange thing, maybe it's still some kind of curse, then there must be some flaw in her face. sighed, this child is so pitiful, he doesn't have his father's love at such a young age, and his face can't see people, what can he do in the future?
Looking at the little Melanza, Helen's maternal love was stimulated. opened his hand and hugged the little person in front of him, and said gently: "Little Mei Lansha, Auntie likes you, you will be Auntie's goddaughter in the future." ”
Melantha and Dana were petrified after hearing this, didn't they tell you that it was inconvenient to meet people? Is this necessary? The city lord's wife's mind jumped too much for them to keep up with. Looking at the pity and sympathy on Aunt Helen's face, Mei Lansha twitched, understood, she must have wanted to be crooked. But if you want to be crooked, you also have the advantage of thinking crooked, and in the future, someone will ask why you cover your face and say that you look unsightly. Quack, the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was a good idea, and Lady Helen was the lady of the lord of the city of Aba, who would dare to trouble their family with her.
Melantha clasped Lady Helen's legs with both hands (she wanted to hug her waist, but she couldn't reach them), looked at her with watery eyes, and called out in a super kawaii voice, "Godmother." "Although she is a little bit of a victim of your feelings right now, she vows that as long as she is genuinely good to them, she will be genuinely to her.
As soon as Helen heard Melanza call this, her whole heart flew up, and she tightened her grip on someone's hand, and the two staged a mother-daughter relationship in front of everyone. Helen was happy in her heart, she wanted a lovely daughter a long time ago, but I don't know why she gave birth to a son, and now she recognizes this although it is a little different from her imagination, but it is also a daughter, and she will treat her well.
Dana stood next to him and smiled faintly, if you look closely, you will find that the corners of her eyes are twitching, these two are now in a mother-daughter relationship, so what is she, an orthodox mother.
Waiting for Melissa and the Lord's Lady (--! After the intimacy was over, Dana wrapped his daughter around her from behind and said to Helen: "Mrs. Helen, you are joking, when your daughter is also the daughter of the city lord, my family Mei Lansha is afraid that she is not qualified for this, besides, if you recognize your daughter, don't you have to discuss it with the city lord first?" ”
When Mei Lansha heard it, she just thought about recognizing her godmother, and she didn't think about anything else, if the city lord didn't want this daughter, everything was nonsense.
Lady Helen smiled and said to Dana, "It's okay, he won't interfere if I want to recognize a daughter, not to mention that since you embroidered that moonlight unicorn for him, even if she recognizes you as a daughter, she will agree." ”
LOOKING AT MRS. HELEN, WHO WAS SMILING VERY HIGH, A LONG ROW OF BLACK LINES CLIMBED UP THE HEADS OF MELANTHA AND DYNA, THIS IS TOO EXAGGERATED, IT SEEMS THAT MRS. HELENE IS ONLY 8 YEARS OLDER THAN DYNA, IF SHE REALLY RECOGNIZES DYNA AS HER DAUGHTER, OUTSIDERS DON'T KNOW WHAT GOSSIP TO SAY.
It just so happened that the city lord also came to participate in the embroidery room today, and Helen happily ran over and pulled the city lord who was in the middle of the crowd over, and then pointed to Mei Lansha and said about taking her daughter, but the city lord agreed with a squint of eyes. also said that his wife has vision.
Looking at the City Lord's eyes that were about to narrow into a line, Mei Lansha felt a little chill all over.
At this time, the voice of the city lord of Will: The little girl is still young, and she will be able to learn her mother's embroidery skills in a while, so with this goddaughter, will I soon have N moonlight unicorns? When the time comes, (the Will family has a large number of people, and the main family will need hundreds of paintings per person)...... Quack quack. Besides, even if Melanza can't, her mother and grandmother will, with Melanza, even if they are half a relative, they can't refuse me from such a small request as embroidery.
For the shrewd Lord of Will, a small embroidery can not only bring him a spiritual shock, but also a material change. The Will family has a special complex for unicorns, and as long as they present a few paintings like the Moonlight Unicorn to the people of Wangcheng's own family, then his future will be more comfortable.
Someone's thoughts at this time Mei Lansha didn't know, because she never thought that this embroidery would have such a great potential value for someone, and it could only be said that she underestimated the Will family's love for unicorns. But if she knew, she would definitely have to vomit three liters of blood, damn it, the abacus was too fine.
