    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    Bringing the brewed tea to the reporter, Hua Jin glanced at the door. The female customer who had wrapped herself tightly had already left. It seemed that she made the right decision not to greet her after the reporter came in.

    In this bustling city, everyone has their own secrets. As a store owner, it is against professional ethics to be too curious about the privacy of customers.

    "Hello, this is my press card." Before Sun Ya came, she had already made various preparations. She has been in the industry for less than two years, and she has come into contact with all kinds of interviewers, who are extremely verbal, who can't say a word to the camera, and who are beaten to death and don't want to be on camera, or ask them how much money they can give of.

    The more people she saw, the calmer she became when faced with all kinds of people and things. She took a sip of tea and said, "I'm sorry to bother you so rashly. Founded. I learned the story of Mr. Guo and his deceased wife on the Internet, so he helped him take care of the funeral and provided teaching assistance to his children. From him, we learned that when he was the most difficult, he received two With the help of a kind person, one is an internet celebrity, and the other is you. Can you talk about why you were willing to put so much effort and energy into embroidering such a beautiful dragon and phoenix quilt for a poor person?”

    Only then did Hua Jin know that they came here for the sake of the dragon and the phoenix. What happened a few months ago was a little vague to her, and she didn't expect a reporter to come to interview her for this matter.

    Facing the camera, she was silent for a few seconds before she said: "Maybe because I come from a poor village, I can better understand that a husband and wife are willing to spend so much money for their wife in a couple with poor economic conditions. Seeing a doctor in a hospital is such a rare thing.”

    Sun Ya thought that Hua Jin would say that she was moved by the feelings between husband and wife, or took the opportunity to raise her own character, but she didn't expect that she would say such a sentence.

    "The human heart cannot be measured by money, but a man is willing to give up all his money for his wife, and is even willing to take a lot of debt for her. And even if the husband and wife endure hardships and suffering, they insist on cultivating their children to read and let him increase his knowledge. Children I feel sorry for my parents, and in order to reduce the burden on the family, I work around to save money during the holidays." Hua Jin smiled, "I am not moved by this feeling, but admire this family. In this world, there are countless such families, maybe not enough. Rich, but cozy.”

    "I admire them and envy them."

    As a reporter, Sun Ya is more sensitive to other people's emotions. Listening to Hua Jin's words, she subconsciously guessed that the lady's original family might not be good enough, or her family might lack.

    She didn't seize the line to continue digging, but said: "Mr. Guo said that he didn't know the real price of the dragon and phoenix before, but his mood gradually stabilized. It's just a fraction of a quilt. If Mr. Guo didn't deliberately learn about it, then the good deeds you have done will never be known in your life, is it worth it?"

    "Nothing is worth it or not, isn't there a saying in the TV series... being a person, the most important thing is to be happy." Speaking of this, Hua Jin laughed first, "I have little pressure in life, my parents have passed away, and I don't Keeping children or pets is good enough to earn enough money to spend. Sometimes I can help others, and I am actually quite happy. Maybe I am not helping others, but to satisfy myself spiritually.”

    Sun Ya didn't expect that the interviewee turned out to be a fatherless and motherless person who was working alone outside. She was worried that the other party's emotions would be affected, so she quickly asked a few easy questions, and finally asked, "When the show is broadcast, there may be Using some of your embroidery, would you mind if we take some images?"

    "Of course I don't mind." Hua Jin got up and said, "Please."

    The camera was a little unexpected. In the original plan, they did not intend to help Fanhua Studio to promote it, but since the partner opened his mouth, he chose a few good angles and took pictures of the embroidery in the store.

    "Thank you very much for supporting our work." Sun Ya took out a three-finger-wide gift box from her backpack, "This is a souvenir from our column group, I hope you don't dislike it."

    "You're too kind." Hua Jin took the box with both hands, got up and took out two wooden boxes from the drawer, "Summer is coming, I have nothing to give, send two handkerchiefs to wipe the sweat for the two of you."

    "How embarrassing this is." Sun Ya knew that handmade embroidery was expensive and refused to accept it.

    "It doesn't take too much effort to embroider handkerchiefs, but these two handkerchiefs have a good meaning. I wish you all the best of luck and smooth work." Hua Jin explained, "There are not many embroidery patterns on the handkerchiefs, and many of them are from my spare time. What Yu did, the craftsmanship is not good, the two of you should not dislike it."

    She is a vulgar person, and she couldn't help but be moved when she heard that the column team might cut into the scene of embroidery in the program. When one more person sees the beauty of Shu embroidery, it is a good thing for the whole embroidery industry, and it is also a good thing for the studio.

    In the end, Sun Ya accepted the handkerchief sent by Hua Jin, got on the interview car back to the TV station, and opened the gift box. The handkerchief was folded and placed in the box, and the tentacles were smooth. She gently unfolded the handkerchief and couldn't help but exclaimed.

    What a beautiful picture of rich and noble peony.

    Turning the handkerchief over to one side, the embroidered pattern turned out to be different from the other side, embroidered with red plum blossoms. This is such a superb craftsmanship, and there is not even the slightest flaw in it. This reminded her of an embroidered picture of a crane presenting a peach and a Su in her aunt's house. heard that it was given by aunt's friend on her 50th birthday. When she saw the embroidery picture, she was so amazed.

    After work, Sun Ya came home exhausted. Seeing that her parents were still sitting on the sofa watching TV and drinking tea, and her aunt and uncle were there, she changed her slippers and said hello to the elders.

    "Xiaoya is back?" Auntie smiled gently when she saw her, "Sit down and rest for a while."

    Sun Ya sat down next to her aunt, threw her backpack aside, and leaned against her aunt to act coquettishly: "Aunt, I'm so tired." She has been close to her aunt since she was a child. When she was very young, her aunt often gave her to her. Make up some very interesting small animals. She who owns these small animals is the envy of the children in the whole community.

    "I told you a long time ago that girls are reporters. They come in the wind and rain all day long. They are almost 30 years old, and they don't even have a boyfriend." Father Sun saw that his daughter was no big or small. Looking like this, he couldn't help but scolded, "You didn't listen to me coming back to do business, now you know you're tired?"

    "Brother, what did you say?" Aunt Sun patted Sun Ya's shoulder lightly to prevent her from conflicting with Dad Sun, "You didn't want to learn Dad's craft back then? Children have their own ideas. As long as they don't take the wrong path of breaking the law and discipline, we as elders should not intervene more. Besides, what's wrong with girls, women can hold up half the sky."

    When Dad Sun heard his sister's words, he suddenly couldn't get angry. Back then, his father wanted to pass on the straw weaving craft to him, but he didn't want to. It was his sister who stood up, so he didn't let the craftsmanship passed down by the four or five generations of their old grandson's family to be thrown away. How could he dare to refute his sister's words.

    "I feel sorry for him..."

    "Go to the kitchen to peel fruit when you feel sorry for your daughter, and don't disturb our women watching TV." Sun Ya's mother looked at her husband with disgust, "Look down on our women, you should be alone."

    Dad Sun didn't dare to speak at all, and obediently went to the kitchen to wash the fruit.

    "Aunt, when I went to interview today, I received a gift. You must like it." Sun Ya knew that her aunt was engaged in traditional handicrafts and was very interested in traditional arts, so she took out the handkerchief that Huajin gave, "You Look, the embroidery patterns on both sides of this handkerchief are actually different."

    "This is double-sided different-color embroidery. It was created by Su embroiderers decades ago. This embroidery method is a test of the embroiderer's stitching skills, and it is mostly used in Su embroidery. The material of your handkerchief is Shu brocade. The color habit is also biased towards the style of Shu embroidery, which seems to be a combination of the two. You are lucky, I don’t know which master’s embroidery you got?” Aunt Sun turned her handkerchief over and over to look at it several times, without concealing her appreciation. , "The color is bold, the stitches are delicate, and the pattern has a good meaning. You have to keep such a good thing well, and don't waste good things."

    "It's not a master, it's the work of a very young embroiderer." Sun Ya recounted what happened, and took out the business card that she exchanged with the other party before leaving, "This is her contact information."

    "Hua Jin..." Aunt Sun suddenly remembered that she had also met a junior named Hua Jin at an internal exhibition of traditional handicrafts some time ago. She took out the business card she received that day and compared it with the one in Sun Ya's hand. Sure enough, the name and contact information were the same.

    "It turned out to be her." Aunt Sun recalled that she had promised to introduce Hua Jin to her friend who was good at embroidery, but she forgot when she was busy these days, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

    She is all in her fifties, and she still doesn't count. Aunt Sun felt a little relieved to think that Hua Jin was only in her twenties and could embroider such exquisite double-sided embroidery. Her friend must be very willing to meet her with such a talented junior.

    In order to complete the customization of pineapple essence, Hua Jin and Tan Yuan worked together for several days. When she was dreaming at night, Hua Jin dreamed that the needles on the embroidery frame were moving by herself, and quickly embroidered the whole embroidery picture.

    But a dream is a dream, and when she wakes up the next morning, she still has to face a ruthless, cruel and busy world.

    When she was so busy, the phone rang, and she took it out without thinking, "Hello, this is Fanhua Studio, who are you?"

    There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and an indifferent voice sounded: "Pei Yan."

    "It turned out to be Mr. Pei." Hua Jin stopped her work, got up and walked to the sofa to stretch her waist, "I'm sorry, I was too busy just now and didn't notice the phone number."

    "You didn't save my number at all." The indifference in Pei Yan's tone had already crawled out along the phone. Hua Jin laughed twice and changed the subject, "Why are you free to call me today?"

    Tan Yuan winked at the side, saw Hua Jin glaring at her, covered her mouth and ducked to the side, an impure person like her would not affect the relationship between a pure man and a woman.

    "Who told me that he wanted to go to the exhibition?"

    "Ah!" Hua Jin just remembered that Pei Yan said last time that she was going to take her to visit the cultural relics exhibition. She was so busy these days that she forgot about this, "Go, go, I will even be hail. Go, when?"

    "I'll pick you up outside the alley at eight o'clock tomorrow morning." After speaking, Pei Yan added, "Of course, if there is a hailstorm, don't wait for me, I won't come, nor will I come with a knife. ."

    Hua Jin: "Hahahaha, Mr. Pei, you are so humorous."

    No, not humorous at all, such a cold joke.

    "It's not as humorous as Miss Hua. You don't have a mobile phone number when you ask for help. How humorous, isn't it?"

    Hua Jin: "..."

    "Mr. Pei, you don't know. I'm used to using WeChat. In my heart, adding WeChat friends is the closest friend, and there is no substitute." Hua Jin felt that she could still be rescued.

    "Then how many good friends do you have on WeChat?"

    "No matter how many close friends you have, you can't compare to half of you, Mr. Pei." Hua Jin coughed dryly, "As one of the future inheritors of Shu Embroidery, my greatest strength is honesty, really."

    "Heh." Pei Yan sneered and hung up the phone.

    "No one in the circle of friends is half as good as Mr. Pei."

    "Irreplaceable friend."

    Tan Yuan shook his head and sighed: "Huahua, I really didn't see it. You are so shameless when you pick up a man. What's more shameless is that everyone says that there is no substitute for others, but you are too embarrassed to say that you are a pure relationship between men and women. You When you say this, have you ever considered the feeling of purity?"

    "I thought about it, and Chunjian said I was right." Hua Jin put the phone aside, "You don't understand, for me, all the friends on WeChat are irreplaceable."

    When I got home in the evening, Hua Jin had another dream. In the dream, many people were crying and shouting to buy embroidery. Countless people held banners with the words "Proud of maintaining traditional handicrafts and shame on trampling on traditional handicrafts. "

    Hua Jinmei laughed out loud, woke up and opened the window to see that there was no hail outside, but it was raining. wonder if Pei Yan will come?

    Picking out an off-the-shoulder skirt and putting it on, Hua Jin thought, whether he comes or not, prepare yourself first.

    After changing clothes and makeup, and embroidering something, her phone rang.

    "I'm here, you come down."

    down?

    Hua Jin walked out of the door and glanced down on the balcony. Pei Yan, wearing a white shirt and black suit pants, was standing there. Under his feet was the dirty land with turbulent mud and water, and all around him were dilapidated buildings and the wind and rain. Among the flying weeds, only he and the big navy blue umbrella in his hand are the most shining existences in the rain curtain.

    "What are you doing standing there, are you going to jump from it?" Pei Yan suddenly raised her head and met Hua Jin's gaze.

    Hua Jin sighed, but how could such a beautiful woman have such a poisonous mouth: "I want to jump, but I'm afraid I'll crush you to death."

    Pei Yan took a few big steps back, then raised his head to look at her silently, his eyes seemed to say, now you can't hit me, just jump.

    Brocade:  …

    Forget it, begging for a soft mouth, she endured it.

    Hua Jin went downstairs, one of them walked to the front with a navy blue umbrella, and the other walked to the back with a pink umbrella, without speaking.

    "Oh yo." The old lady Chen, who came back from shopping for vegetables, came out of the alley and looked at Pei Yan with disgust on her face, "The young man is very good-looking, why is he so ignorant. With such a big umbrella, he doesn't talk to women. Friends go together, but they still fight each other, what's this like?"

    "Grandma Chen, I told you, we are not..."

    "You're right." Pei Yan put away his umbrella, walked under the Huajin umbrella, raised his chin, "hold the umbrella well."

    "Haha." Hua Jin shoved the umbrella handle into Pei Yan's hand, "My dear, this umbrella is so heavy, people's hands are sore, please rub it for me."

    Come on, hurt each other, and see who is disgusting.

    "That's right." Seeing this, Mrs. Chen felt very relieved, showing a smile with hidden merit and fame, and walked away from the two of them quickly. Although she is old, she also knows that it is disgusting to do light bulbs.

    Hua Jin and Pei Yan turned their heads and watched Grandma Chen go away, and then glared at each other.

    "childish!"

    "shameless!"

    "Return the umbrella to you!"

    "I don't, you fight!"

    "I don't look good when I'm a big man with a small umbrella."

    "Nonsense, it is the freedom of others to wear an umbrella, whoever stipulates that men can't wear a small flower umbrella, that is sex discrimination against the majority of male compatriots, as the heirs of the new era, we must break the old customs and break the narrow concept of gender! "
