Chapter 122: Gu Xia paints embroidery samples
"Xiao Xia, come and see how the embroidered flowers are going" Jiang's mother took the embroidered handkerchief that had been embroidered for a long time and asked her daughter-in-law's opinion.
Gu Xia took the embroidered handkerchief in her mother-in-law's hand and looked at it carefully, her mother-in-law embroidered a bright peony flower, and said that the embroidery was not alive.
It's just that the peony flowers are too cookie-cutter. If the mother-in-law can embroider some new patterns, she can sell them at a high price.
"Mother's embroidery work has nothing to say, that is, my mother can embroider something more unique on it. The richer the person, the more sophisticated. If only I could embroider a unique embroidered handkerchief. You can't be robbed like crazy. Gu Xia also said her thoughts.
Jiang's mother has always trusted her daughter-in-law, and she also wants to embroider unique embroidery.
"Xiaoxia, you have a lot of ideas, can you help your mother think about what to embroider?" Jiang Mu didn't have an idea.
What she used to embroider was nothing more than flowers and plants, mandarin ducks and magpies, and she really couldn't think of anything good to embroider besides these.
But these things can be embroidered, which is nothing more than a good job of embroidery. It's not unique.
Jiang Mu can be regarded as asking the right person, Gu Xia is the soul from the 21st century. As far as those cartoon characters are concerned, any one of them can be said to be unique.
"Since my mother asked, I really have some ideas. It's just that my painting skills are not very good, so I have to ask my husband to help me draw. Gu Xia replied obediently, and did not forget to glance at Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi naturally would not refuse his daughter-in-law, the couple went back to the house, Gu Xia dictated, and Jiang Yi came to paint. The painting is no different from what Gu Xia thought in her heart, and I have to say that her family husband has superb painting skills.
Gu Xia didn't let Jiang Yi draw cartoon characters, she could describe them, but she was afraid that his father-in-law wouldn't be able to imagine it. The paintings are of several characters from mythological stories, all of which are familiar.
Jiang Yi naturally drew it.
Gu Xia sent the four drawings drawn by Jiang Yi to Jiang's mother, and Jiang's mother instantly liked the paintings when she saw the drawings on the drawings.
Each picture is a unique existence, few people embroider on the handkerchief, if this is embroidered, it is the most unique, the key is that they are all very good-looking.
Two days later, Gu Xia was going to go into the city to send her scar removal cream to Deyi Hall.
Mother Jiang has also been doing embroidery work in the house for the past two days, and all the five embroidered handkerchiefs have been embroidered, she gave them to Gu Xia and asked her to take the embroidered handkerchiefs to the embroidery workshop to sell by the way.
Gu Xia agreed in one bite, she had seen her mother-in-law's embroidered handkerchief, and she was also amazed, and she really praised it, "I know that my mother's embroidery is good, and this is not a unique embroidery." Designated to be able to sell at a high price, my mother is waiting at home to come back to collect the cash! ”
"Alas, alas!" Jiang Mu responded repeatedly.
Gu Xia and his wife drove the ox cart into the city, and the first stop was the pharmacy.
The shopkeeper received a hundred scar removal creams from Gu Xia, and Le's mouth couldn't close, which was all white silver.
The couple went to the embroidery workshop for the second time, and the female shopkeeper had a deep memory of Gu Xia and his wife.
"What does the little lady want to buy this time?" The female shopkeeper was warmly entertained.
Don't look at the little lady who is much younger than her, but she doesn't dare to slack off. This little lady looks weak, but she is actually more shrewd than her.
"I'm not here to buy things this time, I'm here to sell embroidery, I don't know if the shopkeeper will accept it?" Gu Xia directly made his intentions clear.
"Whether I accept it or not depends on the quality of the little lady's embroidery. Our embroidery workshop has embroidery, not the best embroidery, generally does not receive. The female shopkeeper replied truthfully.
Usually, there are people who go to her embroidery workshop to sell embroidery, but the embroidery she left behind is pitiful. It's really that her vision is too high, and the embroidery that can't be seen can't be sold at a price, and it's too much to see.
Gu Xia didn't say much, she had confidence in her mother-in-law's embroidery, don't look at the female shopkeeper's official look on her face now, she will be amazed for a while.
Gu Xia took out her mother-in-law's embroidery, and the female shopkeeper took it indifferently. The first embroidery is a peony flower, and the big red peony is very smart. The embroidery is excellent!
She already had a plan to keep the embroidery, and when she saw that the second embroidery was the embroidery of Chang'e flying to the moon.
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately fell in love with Chang'e's embroidery to the moon.
The legend of Chang'e running to the moon is often told by Mr. Storyteller in the teahouse. But I haven't seen who embroidered Chang'e.
I didn't expect the effect to be so amazing, such embroidery can be called unique, those rich ladies in the county, they like to buy unique embroidery, to show their identity.
The next embroidery also made the female shopkeeper speechless.
"Little lady, this embroidery is all embroidered by you? Not to mention the embroidery work, it is also very unique, I left it all, and the little lady made a price. The female shopkeeper came back to her senses from the amazement.
She thought that these embroideries were embroidered by the little lady in front of her, and she was still thinking about paying a high price to leave the little lady in her embroidery workshop.
Such a good embroidery girl can't be missed, I'm afraid that it will not become the face of their embroidery workshop in the future. Earn more money for the embroidery workshop.
Gu Xia was not surprised to hear that all the female shopkeepers had left. "The shopkeeper guessed wrong, this embroidery is not embroidered by me. It was embroidered by my mother-in-law. The shopkeeper also knows that the embroidery alone costs a tael of silver, and the embroidery is unique, and the embroidery is also good. The price of embroidery will naturally be high. At least five taels of silver for an embroidery. ”
Although the female shopkeeper had already prepared in her heart that the embroidery would not be cheap, she did not expect that the little lady would really dare to ask for the price.
"The embroidery is indeed unique, but we are just a small county town, whether it can be sold for a high price of five taels is not necessarily, and the asking price of the little lady is too high. If you can buy five get one free, you can still consider it. The female shopkeeper thought for a moment.
She also learned from Gu Xia to buy embroidered handkerchiefs before bargaining, but unfortunately Gu Xia didn't eat her at all.
"No bargaining, five taels is the minimum standard. Buy 5 get 1 free is even more impossible. The shopkeeper should also show sincerity, and the shopkeeper is not an ignorant person. My mother-in-law's embroidered handkerchief can be sold for seven or eight taels when she turns around, and the shopkeeper is not sincere, so we won't sell it. ”
The smile on the female shopkeeper's face stiffened when she heard this, she wanted to pinch the little lady, but she was pinched by others.
The little lady is a shrewd person, and she can't fool her, she buys it for five taels, and when she turns around, she can indeed sell it for seven or eight taels, or even more silver.
She has friendships with the wives of many large families in the county. Don't worry about selling well.
"Okay, five taels is five taels." The female shopkeeper reluctantly spoke.
The two of them paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, and the female shopkeeper was still lobbying: "Little lady, your mother-in-law's embroidery work is better than that of the embroiderers in our embroidery workshop." Go back and ask your mother-in-law if she would like to come to our embroidery workshop to work. The price is negotiable. ”
"No, my mother-in-law is used to being at home at home, I'm afraid I don't like to be restrained." Gu Xia politely rejected the female shopkeeper for her mother-in-law.
Jiang Yi also means this, his mother will not come to the embroidery workshop to work.
