Feast of Flowers

Chapter 24: Circle of friends

The two stations are the straw weaving art exhibition area. The straw weaving technology has a long history. With the development of history, the technology is getting better and better. With the improvement of the production level, the straw weaving craftsmanship has developed from its practicality to artistic appreciation value.

In recent years, straw woven products seem to be gradually rejuvenated in the online sales channels. Although not popular enough, they at least give people hope.

"This villain is doing a good job. It was made of straw?" Chen Jiang carefully looked at the straw villain in the exhibition cabinet. There were almost no traces of straw on the villain's face. He looked closer and found out. The skirt and face of the villain are woven with very fine straw silk, so that the villain's face is vivid and the skirt is elegant and vivid.

"It seems...something interesting." Chen Jiang commented dryly, "It looks pretty."

"In ancient times, there were craftsmen weaving incense **** with gold threads, which made people invisible to the slightest flaw. Now this technique is nothing." A woman of about forty or fifty years old with glasses walked over. Wearing a navy blue cotton skirt, elegant and friendly.

Seeing that this person is very similar to the exhibit producer's photo, Hua Jin asked with some uncertainty: "Are you... Mr. Sun?"

"Mr. Sun, I'm the one who does manual work, so I can call me aunt grandson." Teacher Sun saw that Hua Jin and Chen Jiang were both young people, and smiled, "It is rare that young people are interested in these old craftsmanship." The exhibition is not open to the public, and those who can get tickets in are not ordinary people. But those who have tickets are not necessarily interested in such activities. Some people do it for tasks, and some people do it to broaden their connections. Those who really like traditional handicrafts and want to study them are probably only the few old experts who are already old.

As soon as Hua Jin wanted to speak, he heard the guide bringing more than a dozen middle-aged men and women with rigorous clothing. The guide talked about the origin and development process of each traditional art. These visiting representatives nodded and smiled from time to time, but they were Not really interested in these exhibits, maybe only they know it. Hua Jin's gaze scanned the group of visitors and found that among them, there was an acquaintance, Pei Yan.

Compared with other people who nod frequently, Pei Yan can be said to be expressionless. He didn't even look at the explainer, but he looked at each exhibit with the most serious look. That kind of look kept the exhibits. The most basic respect.

"This is the embroidery exhibition area. Leaders, please go here and be careful of slipping under your feet." The guide led the visitors to the embroidery area. "As we all know, embroidery is one of the famous traditional handicrafts in my country. With a history of three thousand years, the most famous types of embroidery are Su embroidery, Hunan embroidery, Yue embroidery, Shu embroidery, etc. The embroidery products in our exhibition area are mainly Su embroidery and Hunan embroidery..."

Pei Yan looked at the embroidery in the exhibition area, and suddenly thought of Huajin. I wonder if she came here today?

"Embroidery is a very difficult process. It takes a lot of time and energy to make a finished product. As people's life needs increase, machine embroidery works have replaced the position of manual embroidery. But no matter how machine embroidery develops, manual embroidery Smart and soul, machine embroidery can never be replaced. Please take a look at this screen, which uses double-sided embroidery technology. The degree of sophistication cannot be achieved by machines alone."

There are many exhibits in the embroidery area, ranging from screen decorations to small velvet handkerchiefs, all with embroidery techniques. Pei Yan looked at these contemporary masterpieces carefully, and faintly felt that Huajinxiu's things were no worse than them.

He tilted his head slightly and saw Huajin in the far corner. What surprised him most was that Chen Jiang was still standing beside Huajin.

How did Chen Jiang get to her side?

Thinking of Chen Jiang's stinking ailment that he likes to be courteous to beautiful women, Pei Yan frowned, turned and walked out of the crowd, and walked towards Huajin.

Seeing Pei Yan coming here, Hua Jin raised his hand and shook him slightly: "Didn't you say that you can't come?" As a result, people not only came, but also enjoyed VIP treatment.

"This building is mine. I provided a place for free. The organizer insisted on inviting me, so I can only give them face." Pei Yan yawned and hung the sign on Huajin's neck. , Here you are, you go and listen."

Hua Jin picked up the sign and glanced at it. It said the word Pei Yan, and couldn't help rolling his eyes, took off the sign and threw it back to Pei Yan: "I am not called Pei Yan."

When Chen Jiang was walking towards Pei Yan, he quickly moved away from Huajin three or four steps away, lest Pei Yan think that he has bad thoughts about his girlfriend.

Pei Yan smiled and greeted Teacher Sun, turned his head and gave Chen Jiang a blank expression. Chen Jiang laughed dryly: "I'm sorry, I forgot my cousin is still waiting for me, goodbye."

Meng Tao, who had been forgotten for a long time, looked at Chen Jiang, who was running towards him, with a very complicated mood. At this moment, did he think of his cousin?

"Teacher Sun, I'm going to look around with my friends, you are busy." Hua Jin saw that Teacher Sun looked at her and Pei Yan with a smile, feeling that she might have misunderstood the relationship between the two, and smiled helplessly. There are more and more unmarried single men and women, but others seem to like to put people together. As long as young men and women stand together, many people subconsciously think that they are lovers.

She glanced at Pei Yan who was still looking at the straw-made artwork. She couldn't force him to leave, so she continued to smile at Teacher Sun.

Teacher Sun smiled gently: "I noticed you just now after you walked in. Are you interested in traditional handicrafts?"

"You laughed, I myself do Shu embroidery. It's a rare opportunity, so I came to see it." After she finished speaking, she looked at the exhibition hall where there were not many people, "It gave me a lot of knowledge."

"Shu Embroidery?" Teacher Sun glanced at Hua Jin in surprise. Such a young girl would be willing to work in this industry?

"I have an old friend who makes Su embroidery at home. He opened a studio and raised more than a dozen embroiderers. He can barely survive." Teacher Sun sighed, "She is here, if If you have the opportunity, you can discuss and discuss together." Although the embroidery types and styles are different, there are some commonalities. It is rare that young people are interested in this industry. They are seniors who can help.

"Thank you, Teacher Sun." Hua Jin handed her business card to Teacher Sun. "This is my contact method. You are welcome to contact me at any time."

"Fanhua Studio?" Teacher Sun looked at the name and address of the studio on the business card, "You also run a studio?"

Hua Jin smiled embarrassedly: "In fact, there are only four people in the studio. The two teachers are getting older. Basically, I did it with another friend."

"Embroidery is time-consuming and labor-intensive. How can two people sustain it?" Thinking of the current status of the traditional handicraft industry, Mr. Sun couldn't say much. Keeping on asking would only add to the trouble. Thinking of this, she smiled and encouraged, "I wish your studio better and better. With your young people, our traditional handicrafts will be more promising."

"Thank you." Hua Jin sincerely thanked him. If the traditional handicraft industry wants to continue to spread, it must innovate and gain a firm position in the fast-developing society. Fortunately, many people in this industry are aware of this problem and are also seeking change.

Saying goodbye to Teacher Sun, Huajin and Pei Yan walked to the embroidery exhibition area again, and Pei Yan said, "I think these embroidery are similar to what you embroidered."

"My stitches are too far behind this master." Hua Jin honestly shook his head, "His embroidery has dense stitches, no flaws can be seen, and the colors used are smart and beautiful. With my current embroidery skills , Not half of it."

"It's pretty self-aware." A fair-skinned man with thin lips in a shirt stood expressionless behind them, "The embroidery pattern on this fan is made by a famous embroidery master, Mr. Xu Yan. He is proficient in all kinds of things. Embroidery, one piece of embroidery can sell for more than one million yuan. The phoenix robe in the historical movie last year that amazed countless people was embroidered by his own hands."

"No wonder it's so exquisite. It turned out to be a masterpiece by Mr. Xu Yan." Across the transparent glass cabinet, the surprise in Hua Jin's eyes is almost condensed. "It's just why there is no Mr. Xu's famous brand here?"

The man’s eyes are proud: "The master said, although embroidery is personal, the beauty it brings should belong to everyone. Embroidery can bring joy and joy to others, it is enough, you don’t need to emphasize it. name."

Hua Jin sighed: "Mr. Xu, it's really high-righteous. I didn't expect you to be Mr. Xu's disciple, which made you laugh."

The man smiled reluctantly: "In fact, what's the use of posting the name, except for those in the industry or those who are really interested in embroidery, who cares who the owner of the embroidery is."

As soon as he said this, the smile on Hua Jin's face was slightly stunned. Yes, in this industry, you can't be too fame and fortune, or you won't be able to sustain it sooner or later.

"Didn't you just say that you want to go to the wood carving exhibition area to have a look?" Pei Yan put his hand on Huajin's shoulder, "Let's go."

Flower brocade:...

Being dragged away by Pei Yan forcibly, she wanted to turn her head and look back, Pei Yan's hand was on top of her head, "What are you looking at, and want to go back and listen to others to show off?"

"That's Master Xu's disciple. Even if you listen to him show off, you can still talk to the thigh pendant." Huajin covered her face, "I will post to Moments when I go back." If it wasn't for the fact that I couldn't take pictures in it, she would have taken out her phone. Nine consecutive shots.

"You know my kind of golden thighs, and I haven't seen you showing off in your circle of friends." Pei Yan snorted, "What can a master's disciple show off?"

"You don't understand this. If I show off my acquaintance with you in the circle of friends, after others are envious and jealous, I will say that I am covered in copper and am unclear with rich men. It will be different if I show off Master Xu's disciples. Others will only think that I am full of passion for embroidery and have a sincere heart in pursuing traditional art." Huajin patted Pei Yan's hand on his shoulder, "I am young and innocent, how can I It makes people think that I am confused with rich men."

"You have a very clear analysis." Pei Yan gritted his teeth and said, "You are not afraid to show off Xu Yan's disciple, will be laughed at and hold your thigh?"

"Holding the thigh of a famous embroiderer, can that be called holding the thigh, that is called pursuit." Hua Jin shook his head, "You don't understand the world of art."

"Next month there will be an exhibition of cultural relics that will not be open to the public. There are many imperial concubines and noble clothing on display. I originally planned to help you get two tickets, but what you just said reminded me that I am not Those who understand art will not add to the chaos." Pei Yan was half a head taller than Huajin, and when he stared at Huajin blankly, it seemed like he was scorning a mortal.

"Although you don't know much about art, your pursuit of art is beautiful." Huajin looked at Pei Yan with a smile, "When next month, if you are bored, you can call me to accompany you. , A pair of men and women, do nothing to be tired."

Are you tired from doing anything?

Pei Yan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "Come here."

Huajin covered her chest and whispered: "Say okay first, I'm innocent, and I don't sell myself."

"Selling one's body?" Pei Yan raised his eyebrows higher, "Am I going to spend money to lose money? We are together, and I don't know who is cheaper."

Flower brocade:...

Forget it, for his good looks, don't care about him.

Pei Yan brought Huajin to the VIP lounge: "You can take pictures here."

"Huh?" Hua Jin looked at him puzzled.

"Give you a chance to show off your golden thighs. There are not many rich people like me who look good and have a passion for art." Pei Yan sat on the sofa and leaned lazily," Remember to choose Moments to be visible to all."

"Really want to shoot?" Hua Jin took out his phone and approached Pei Yan. "This is what you asked for."

Pei Yan squinted at Hua Jin, what did she want to do?

Hua Jin put his head to Pei Yan's side, took out his mobile phone to make a beautification, adjusted a few angles, and made sure to take pictures of himself beautifully and temperamentally before putting the picture in the circle of friends.

Fanhua: I met a rich and handsome beauty, and asked how to become a pendant on the beauty's lap. Waiting online, I was very anxious. 【Picture】

Without hesitation, he clicked to send, and Hua Jin turned to look at Pei Yan: "Next month's exhibition, don't forget to call me."

Looking at Hua Jin's shining eyes, Pei Yan felt a little aggrieved, but he still didn't know where this stubborn feeling came from.

He took out his mobile phone and opened his Moments, his face turned dark: "Am I the beauty you only met?"

"Ah? No." Hua Jin was full of innocence, "Isn't it the first time we met today? Is there any ambiguity in this sentence? Mr. Pei, don't be familiar with me, you know, I haven't even gone to college. ..."

"Your high school is number one in the whole school."

"That's what happened seven or eight years ago, and I returned everything I learned to the teacher." Hua Jin smiled more innocently, shaking his phone and said, "My friends are all complimenting you for being handsome."

Pei Yan glanced at Huajin's phone, and vaguely saw the sentence "The best in the world, Sister Hua, try to throw him down! Pick him up! Eat him!"

Behind him he pushed Huajin aside, "Stay away from me."

What kind of people are Huajin's friends?

He is innocent and a big man, he has a little sympathy to help a few small favors, and he has to worry about his innocence?

Thinking of the intimacy between Hua Jin and her friends, Pei Yan felt like knocking over the seasoning box, both upset and irritable.

This woman is also in the traditional handicraft industry anyway, can she be more serious?

What's wrong with his brain just now, so she has to take pictures of herself and send them to Moments?

Could it be because... the lack of air circulation in the exhibition hall affected his IQ?

The author has something to say: Pei Yan: At first glance, she is not a serious woman!
