    "Huahua?!" Tan Yuan looked at Huajin in surprise. Recently, they have received several high-priced custom orders, but they already need to work overtime to embroider these. Now they have to embroider such a big thing, how can there be enough time?

    Seeing Tan Yuan's strange expression, the middle-aged man guessed that the other party might not want to do his own business, bowed his shoulders and rubbed his hands, and whispered, "I-I'm willing to pay more, can you..."

    "I'll show you the picture book." Hua Jin handed the picture book to the man without a quotation, but carefully explained to the man how much time it would take to embroider different methods.

    The man listened very carefully. He flipped through the picture book and the actual photos, hesitated, and chose an embroidery method that could be done in about a month.

    When the money was given, the man took out a dirty old wallet from the jacket's mezzanine pocket, and the wallet was emblazoned with a huge copycat logo. While counting the money, the man said a little embarrassedly: "I can't pay with my mobile phone. I heard that there are many viruses on the Internet, and the money in the mobile phone can be stolen accidentally."

    heard that young people in big cities like to pay with their mobile phones. Even when they buy a snack on the roadside, they scan it with their mobile phones. His old-fashioned way of paying may not please the other party.

    "Cash is good, and it feels better to hold it in your hand." Hua Jin gave the man a copy of the deposit receipt. "It has the mobile phone numbers of me and my colleagues. You can contact us if you need anything."

    "Thank you, thank you, thank you." The man said thank you three times in a row, he put the receipt in the wallet compartment, and quickly disappeared outside the door.

    "Huahua." After the man left, Tan Yuancai said distressedly, "Last time someone paid three times more and you didn't want to rush to work, but this time it's better, you get less money, and you have to embroider big pieces, so he is really your hometown. ?"

    "Even if it's a fellow, it's not worth your hard work, do you know that staying up late is the chief killer of disfigurement?" He stretched out his hand and took the opportunity to touch Hua Jin's face, "It's a pity that this face is as beautiful as jade, even a woman is tempted. "

    "Thank you for the compliment, but I won't like you, so give up." Hua Jin slapped Tan Yuan's claws open, and put the brewed teacup into Tan Yuan's hand, "Go and make your flower-painted jewelry box, kneel down. Bar."

    "Okay, Madam Queen." Tan Yuan smiled and shrank to the side of his workbench. She has no talent for embroidery. Her mother said that she has been learning embroidery for nearly ten years, but the things she embroidered have no spirit. In the past, she could only be an embroiderer all her life, not a master. Huahua is different from her. She only learned Shu embroidery from her mother at the age of nineteen. In just five or six years, the embroidered things are already lifelike, and they are called spiritual energy by their mothers, and their ancestors eat them.

    Tan Yuan is very happy about this, her mother's craftsmanship is finally succeeded, and she herself prefers to make lacquerware, so she has been making lacquerware with her father in recent years.

    Whether it is lacquerware or embroidery, both belong to traditional techniques, they have some commonalities in art, and there are many differences. The biggest problem in the traditional craft industry is that the skilled masters are already old, and the younger generation of craftsmen have not yet been cultivated, so that they are not connected, and many embroidery techniques have even been lost.

    Therefore, in the eyes of Tan Yuan's mother, Gao Shulan, Huajin is the seed of traditional art, the hope for the future of Shu Embroidery, and her orthodox heir. Not a biological daughter, Sheng is a biological daughter.

    Being able to give Hua Jin more time to rush to make embroidery products, most of the time this day, Tan Yuan was greeting customers who entered the store. After closing the store in the evening, Hua Jin went to Tan Yuan's house for a late-night snack, and then walked out slowly.

    Tan Qing and Gao Shulan wanted to keep Hua Jin at home for the night, but Hua Jin didn't want to trouble their family, and was even more afraid of Aunt Gao's urging marriage, so they made excuses and slipped out.

    Although it was past ten thirty at night, this bustling city was still very lively. Hua Jin walked on the street, looked up at the lights on the building, and felt the liveliness of the bustling city.

    After walking for a while, she bent down and rubbed her aching knee a few times, took out her phone from her bag and checked the time. At this point in time, she didn't want to wait for the bus anymore, so she simply made an appointment for a car online.

    This time period is not the peak commute period, and soon a driver took the order, and the mobile phone map showed that it would be possible to arrive in about five minutes.

    Putting down the phone, Hua Jin found herself standing on the edge of the sidewalk and took a few steps back. Seeing countless cars whizzing by on the road, and she was a safe enough distance from these cars, she hummed a song in a good mood.

    Several drunk men walked over with their shoulders on their backs. They saw Hua Jin and whistled a few times with their alcohol guts.

    Hua Jin didn't yell or step back timidly, just glanced at them quietly, reached out and touched the bag, and then continued to lower her head to play with her phone.

    Seeing that Hua Jin didn't respond, and there were other pedestrians on the side of the road, a few drunkards thought it was meaningless and walked away crookedly.

    When they were far away, Hua Jin deleted the three numbers on the phone dial page 110, and put the alarm in her right hand and the antique thin hairpin back into her bag by the way.

    Living alone for so many years, who hasn't come up with a little trick to deal with hooligans?

    Wen Neng elegantly embroiders the landscape, Wu Neng scares hooligans, Hua Jin feels that she is a strange woman with both civil and military skills in the new era.

    Soon the agreed car arrived. After Hua Jin sat in the back seat, the driver reminded her that there was water next to her, and she could drink it if she was thirsty. Hua Jin thanked her, but did not touch the bottle of water. Seeing that Hua Jin didn't speak, the driver didn't insist on talking to her, and turned on the traffic broadcast.

    The broadcast said that a car accident on a certain section of the road caused traffic congestion, and pedestrians and vehicles were asked to avoid this section of the road as much as possible.

    "Fortunately, we passed at the intersection next to it, otherwise we would have to take a long detour." The driver sighed, remembering that the woman in the back seat didn't seem to like talking, and closed her mouth again. He doesn't have any other problems, he just likes to chat with people. There were once guests who gave him bad reviews because he talked too much, so now he is calm and restrained.

    "Well, luckily we were lucky." Hua Jin replied.

    "That's not it." The driver was a little proud. "I've been lucky since I was a child. Even dogs like to wag their tails when they see me."

    Hua Jin didn't know how to answer for a while, the example the other party gave was too powerful.

    The driver found that Hua Jin was not cold-hearted, so he couldn't hold back his high interest in chatting and talked about new things he had encountered recently. Hua Jin found that these masters who often pick up business outside are very well-informed. Some things that they don't even know on the Internet, but they understand clearly, and they can tell the story of the ups and downs, which is fascinating.

    When passing the car accident area, Hua Jin glanced over there, and there were ambulances and sirens coming, but nothing else could be heard.

    Outside the residential building, the driver stuck his head out and looked outside, and found that the alley was narrow and small, and the road was uneven: "Passenger, the destination has arrived, please give me a five-star praise."

    "Okay." Hua Jin pushed the door and got out of the car, walked a few steps, and the alley was bright. She looked back and saw that the talkative master did not drive away, but turned on the headlights of the car, illuminating the alley in front of her.

    Stopping, Hua Jin thanked the driver.

    The driver closed the car door and window and couldn't hear what Hua Jin said. Seeing her turn around, he waved to her and motioned her to go home quickly.

    It is not easy for a young girl to work hard outside. If this kind of trivial matter can ensure the safety of the girl, it can be regarded as an accumulation of virtue for oneself.

    Walking in the dark corridor, Hua Jin heard Sister Qin's roar, and was she scolding the child again?

    The building that Hua Jin rents is a former single-row old-fashioned house. There are only six floors in total, and the independent room is equipped with a kitchen and bathroom, and outside is a large balcony connecting the entire floor. It is rumored that there may be demolition here, but the news has been passed on for two or three years but there is no movement. Most of the people living in this building are tenants from all over the world. They maintain a superficial politeness to each other, but due to the relatively large liquidity between tenants, they are destined to not have too deep friendship.

    Going upstairs, when Hua Jin took the key to the door, he heard the sound of bowls being thrown next door, turned his head and stopped carefully, there was no cry of the child.

    She heard from Grandma Chen downstairs that Sister Qin was a local, her husband cheated on money and beat others, she divorced the man, and brought her child back to her parents' home for a while, and because her brother's child bullied her son, she Moved out with the kids.

    Perhaps because of the pressure of life, her temper is not very good, and sometimes she can't help but scold the child, but she has never seen her do anything to the child. Hua Jin can't judge Sister Qin's right or wrong, nor is she qualified to judge.

    After a few minutes of Shu embroidery in the house, the movement next door has not stopped. Hua Jin sighed helplessly, got up and loaded a small bowl of green dates from the refrigerator, went out and knocked on Sister Qin's door.

    "Sister Qin, I bought some fresh jujubes yesterday. They taste good. You and your child can try them." After Sister Qin opened the door, Hua Jin didn't enter the house. She glanced at the house, where the little boy sat quietly. On the shabby sofa, there are no wounds on the body, and the clothes are not scattered.

    "Thank you." Sister Qin looked at Dazzling Brocade, took the bowl from her hand, and quickly came out again. The green dates in the bowl were gone, and there were a few pieces of sliced ​​pineapple: "This is what I just soaked today. A good pineapple is very sweet, you can take it back and eat it."

    "Thank you." Hua Jin took a sip, the pineapple was sweet and delicious, without astringency. When she returned to the room again, there was no loud noise from the next door, and it didn't take long for it to be completely quiet.

    The mother and son must have fallen asleep.

    She yawned, turned the lights on, and started embroidering the red quilt.

    What you should do, stay up all night to do it.

    An hour later, she got up and walked a few steps in the house. A media app on her mobile phone pushed a message with the title "His life makes you sympathize, but its life makes you cry".

    clicked on the title and glanced at the content. It turned out to be saying that a rich man took pets to other places. Because he was reluctant to let pets suffer during consignment, he took his pets to the destination by private jet.

    "writer of sensational headlines!"
