Chapter 50 Human Skin Mask(1/2)
In late spring, the grass grows in the south of the Yangtze River.
Mixed peanut trees and groups of orioles flying around.
In Sujiazhuang, ten miles north of Baisha City, a piece of rapeseed flowers are golden, like the ocean.
At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, two girls emerged from the flower fields and turned onto the main road. Their faces were red with the warm sunshine.
A carriage happened to pass by, and the older girl Su Mei stopped to avoid it. She suddenly pointed to the flowers on the side of the road and said whistling:
"Guaer, come and see it quickly. There is a big butterfly here. It's so beautiful. It's not much better than if you run into the rapeseed field to observe bees, dragonflies, and scarabs?"
Su Guoer let out a low "um" and walked over.
She is a painter who designs embroidery. In order to make the embroidery vivid, observing flowers, plants, insects and fish is a daily task. Today, she just glanced at the butterflies in a hurry, turned around, and looked at the towering white sand city with melancholy.
After lunch, Su Mei forced her to take the little girl who was regarded as a pearl in the whole village to relax. Unexpectedly, the more she was distracted, the less energetic she became. She had to sigh and stop talking.
Since the Xintianyou Arena's decisive battle to kill Zhou Wuyang, the girl has never seen him again after a whole year.
The later party was destroyed and the royal party was in power, and the situation in China changed like a storm.
At the beginning, the city was full of relish and was filled with magical stories.
What does Xin Tianyou mean is the little prince? The fire in the palace was rescued by a golden arhat, and Yicheng went down the mountain. The City God Temple destroyed the tiger, the Zhuque Street Fighting Real Person, and a yelled treasure umbrella to the city... The blue bird looked for the master thousands of miles away, but it scared the cranes in Xiaoshan fled in panic; Bai Ling'er was covered in red makeup and rode alone to pass the barrier...
Not long after, the wind direction suddenly changed.
If you talk about the ministers and royal family, it doesn't matter as long as it is not slander. You can even guess whether Queen Jianming, who has just ascended the throne, will have another baby. However, you are not allowed to talk about the origin of the Vajra of the Protective Kingdom, and those who violate it will be punished severely.
The elders of Sujiazhuang who were arrested and arrested had been released long ago.
Each of them has straight waists, walking with wind, and their eyes shine.
People become egos and have a clear idea. They often gossip in front of Su Guoer, intentionally or unintentionally, saying that there are many lay disciples in the Buddhist sect, and they can still marry. Like the kings of Song State worship Buddha devoutly, don’t they also have three wives and four concubines? When the Tianshi Mansion of Zhenguo is repaired, our Zhuang will definitely be very happy...
The girl's face turned red with shame and she covered her face and walked away quickly.
Xin Tianyou did not break his promise.
Ten days after the decisive battle on the ring, Qian Mingli, the manager of Furong Yixue, came to Sujiazhuang with several followers and paid a lot of money to hire Su Guoer and others as teachers.
This is not the one who hires, so Su Guoer certainly refused to go, so Aunt Su had to choose a few more embroiderers and painters.
Qian Mingli didn't force himself, so he ordered a big business on the spot and took out 16,000 taels of silver notes to advance the full payment.
There are 10,000 sets of children's clothing in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the price is an astonishing set of one tael of silver per set. There are also 2,000 sets of clothes for adults and 3 taels of silver per set.
It is not uncommon for the silk silk satin worn by noble people to cost dozens or hundreds of taels of silver. But a set of civilian clothes made of good linen is worth at most 700 to 800 cents, not to mention that children only need to spend half of the fabric.
Could it be that this is Xintianyou’s disguised gift to Sujiazhuang?
Qian Mingli took out a pattern that was one foot square and said that a "school badge" must be embroidered on the left chest of the top.
It was a round circle, with a bright red peach blossom in the center. Four characters were evenly distributed on the edge of the middle and upper part, Furong Yixue. There were two strange characters horizontally below the peach blossom, Ark.
The Su family understood.
The colors are colorful, the petals are different in thickness, the peach branches are slanted, and there are many characters, which is much more complicated than simply embroidering a few magpies and swallows. The labor costs are more expensive than fabric.
Before embroidery, you must first produce the embroidery draft.
The best embroidery painter in Sujiazhuang, of course, was Su Guoer, who was called out from the inner house.
Qian Mingli, who was sitting, quickly stood up, bowed to the end, and smiled:
"I heard that Miss Su's technique is unconventional and it is hard to find money. If there are any flaws in the drawing, please change it."
The girl who has entered the ring is full of attention and has entered a river of blood through the long street. After two big scenes, she has added a calm temperament. She has a little blessing and returned the favor, picked up the pattern and looked at it for a while, and said:
"Although the words Furong Yixue are handsome, they seem restrained compared to the overall situation. Why not deform the tip of the pen slightly when I draw the embroidery, how about it?"
Some of the followers immediately muttered, that was the work of our mountain captain.
Aunt Su said in a deep voice:
"Guaer, how could you change the drawings of the guest officer at will?"
Qian Mingli smiled and said:
"It's okay, it's okay... I'm going to hide it. It was written by Mr. Lao Qingde, the director of the school. It took a lot of time to think about it. Qian was authorized to act on the camera... That... Miss Su made a slight change to make the artwork more beautiful."
A little manager dared to agree to an outsider to change the handwriting of the mountain leader? It shows that in his eyes, our Guoer's identity is much more noble than that of the mountain leader.
Aunt Su and several elders looked at each other subtly without saying a word.
Su Guoer smiled slightly and continued to analyze.
"The two characters of the ark are silkworm heads and swallows, and the rules are serious, and it is not good to increase or decrease a little. But it is below, like a pile of hard stubborn stones, but a peach blossom has grown on it. Since ancient times, flowers on the stone are not auspicious, and the meaning of good times is not long. I want to move it down a little bit, and the texture of the grass leaves is depicted to represent the grace of thick soil. The thinner picture will also be richer and more symmetrical..."
Badges are not simple drafts, and any details have special symbolic significance. For example, fifty-six ethnic groups can only draw fifty-six flowers, one more or one less.
Qian Mingli pondered for a while, and while answering "Okay", he moved his eyes to the center of the artwork with concern.
I thought to myself, aunt, you are not revising it, it is clearly re-creating it. Don’t change He Qingqing’s paintings, I can’t make the decision. If the old man Yu Geda, who was guarding the door, know, I’m afraid he will hit me once when he meets me.
Sure enough, no pot is opened and which pot is picked up.
Su Guoer pointed to the middle of the pattern and said:
"The peaches are so beautiful that they are bright and colorful. The brushstrokes are very slender and flexible, but they are subtle..."
Qian Mingli didn't dare to wait for her to finish speaking and said with a wry smile:
"Ms. Su, peach blossoms cannot be changed, and the subtleties are not very important. Anyway, the school emblem is embroidered with clothes, and after washing and drying, there will always be some deformation."
The girl stopped, her heart was sore, and her eyes were quickly covered with mist.
Su Guoer had noticed the signature in the lower right corner of the drawing, He Qingqing. With the girl's mysterious intuition, she immediately felt that the other party had a different relationship with Xin Tianyou.
The word "Ark" is a magical product, and the word "Furong Yixue" is also very skilled. Only the peach blossom in the center is quite immature, and it is only equivalent to the level of his twelve or thirteen years old.
If it wasn't for He Qingqing, who could it be?
who is she?
...
Sujiazhuang is famous but is small in the major embroidery shops. It was previously bullied and exploited.
Suddenly, there were traffic jams and distinguished guests came to visit the door to catch up with their relationship.
Aunt Su ordered that she would not see any of them and would only maintain business dealings with the old customers. The orders from Furong Yixue alone were enough for them to work for half a year.
The lively scene lasted only for more than a month, and Sujiazhuang became deserted again overnight.
A shocking rumor has begun to spread in the world.
Queen Jianming gave Bai Ling'er the princess, preparing to marry her nephew, the Vajra of the Guardian of the Kingdom, after the repair was completed in the Tianshi Mansion of Zhenguo, and let her marry her nephew, the Vajra of the Kingdom.
A few months later, even more shocking news emerged.
The princess Asha of the French man unified Yunshan and ascended the throne and became the queen. She stopped the thousand-year war with China, visited Baisha City to form an alliance, and asked to marry the national teacher Xin Tianyou.
The story has its nose and eyes, and it also reveals that Asha was surrounded by Zhennan Army. The national teacher shouted "Thunder" and the void produced lightning, and the river was full of white light...
The more the government refutes the rumors, the more people believe in it.
Now, there are no one to go to Sujiazhuang to make soy sauce.
Just kidding, Yunshan Fanzi is easy to mess with? He is fierce and barbaric, kills people without blinking, and "sucks" at any time. What if they know the dewy fate between the national master and the Su family, what if they are playing with the silly, wouldn't they implicate their own family?
The girl is getting thinner and silent.
The elders of Sujiazhuang saw it and were anxious in their hearts, but they had no choice.
In the late spring of the following year, the Secret Investigation Department sent people to Sujiazhuang and brought the spiritual bamboo shoot bracelets given to Su Guoer by the national master Xin Tianyou.
The girl finally had a smile on her face, and the whole village was filled with joy.
Along with the secret detective spies, there were also several imperial guards surrounded by the Holy Fetal Real Man Qianmo. The calm and elegant appearance of the man immediately fascinated Su Mei.
To summon the core figure of Sujiazhuang, Qianmo took out a piece of Tiansilensis cloth worth ten thousand gold, and declared that it would make ten sets of "one-piece protective clothing" and strictly prohibit the leakage of news. The reward is 5,000 taels of silver, which must be completed within seven days. In the following seven days, the spy of the Secret Detective and the Imperial Heavenly Supervisor will occupy the village...
According to Qianmo's description, Su Guoer quickly understood.
"One-piece protective clothing" is very similar to "water lining" or night clothes, but it is much denser, leaving no gaps from head to toe. The eyes are inlaid with two thin pieces of polished crystals.
Could it be that Xintianyou has not shown up for so long and is planning to lead an adventure in the team and where are you going?
The girl couldn't help but make random guesses.
My cousin Su Mei secretly glanced at Qian Mo's handsome face and was also thinking about it.
...
The two girls walked back slowly, one in front and one behind.
Flowers are blooming and plants are lush.
Bees and butterflies fly around everywhere, causing people to feel upset.
Thirty meters away, the carriage stopped and a young man with greasy head and powder came out. He stared at Su Guoer, trying to swallow it with the water, and said with a smile:
"Two beautiful ladies, I must be from Sujiazhuang. I came from Zhou Guo and was going to make a big order for you. Come on, get in the car and discuss. As long as I can make me happy, you two will have a good time and drink spicy food in the future. Tsk tsk, what are you wearing on your wrists, bamboo shells? I mostly have gold bracelets, silver bracelets, jade bracelets..."
