Bao Le had nothing to do that day, studied the calendar, and drew a circle on a certain day at the end of October.This day seems to have opened some kind of mechanism. The little girl who was originally lazy suddenly became active, and dragged Jiang Ning around in the first two days.The two of them wandered all over the streets and alleys of Nanjing City, and bought a bunch of girls' things like rouge, gouache, fan, sachet, and the like.Naturally, trying on clothes is also indispensable. From the jacket skirt to the jacket skirt to the cheongsam, they all looked dissatisfied, and I didn't buy the last one.

Bao Le, who was disappointed with the ready-made clothes, took Jiang Ning to buy a lot of fabrics and needlework, as if she wanted to do it herself.

"You still make your own clothes."

Jiang Ning's long nails poked Bao Le's tender face, and she was slapped with a red mark by her backhand.

The little girl said angrily: "It's fine if you don't help, and make trouble! If you make trouble again, you sleep on the sofa at night!"

Jiang Meiren squinted her eyes, as if she was accumulating some kind of anger bar.Not knowing how much she had saved, she raised her eyebrows suddenly, stretched out her hands, and made a gesture of surrender.It was also a change of sex, and this person was kind enough to help.She was already very strong, and it took Bao Le a long time to drag the table that moved a few centimeters, and she lifted it up with one hand.

"Where to put it?"

Bao Le swallowed, and pointed to the other side.

She cleared a large piece of open space in Yuanbaozhai and used it as her studio.Anyway, old man Qi might not come twice a year, Yuan Baozhai now takes her surname.On the large table, there are rulers, hook pens, cloth scissors, steam irons, and even sewing machines. Tools are all available.On the right hand side of the table is the material area, where there are hundreds of colors of embroidery threads, and fabrics of different materials, such as cotton, hot-melt film, and copper wire.

The little girl tied her hair into a ponytail, rolled up her sleeves, spread out a piece of white paper more than one meter long on the table, and began to draw lines on it with a pencil.As expected of a restoration major, she placed her hand on the paper very steadily.Thanks to a large amount of material preparation in advance, she has a well-thought-out idea of what to sketch.After a while, a palm-sized flower appeared on the paper, and she drew a leaf on the left side. The smaller flower under the leaf echoed the previous big flower.The space between leaves and flowers is just right, as if she had designed the position of each flower before painting.

The flowers in Bao Le's works are luxuriant and connected into one piece, with complex postures and elegant shapes.

She can also see that she has a good foundation in drawing with a simple hand. don't know which one is better than Young Master Shen~

Jiang Ning hugged her chest, tilted her head, and watched from Bao Le's perspective. When she wrote, she whistled: "It's Peony."

The little girl said happily: "The world is rich and precious!"

This girl looks cute, but at most she is at the level of hibiscus, and she is still a little tender for peony.Jiang Ning didn't dare to say this. After all, sleeping with a soft little girl is more interesting than lying on the sofa alone.

Over there, Bao Le took the needle, covered the manuscript with a layer of transparent plastic paper, and pierced countless holes along the lines of the peony.Then she removed the white paper, and pointed the transparent plastic at the desk lamp, each group of small holes clearly outlined the shape of the peony.

"Okay," the little girl put down the things in her hands and turned off the lamp on the table, "Let's continue with the rest tomorrow. According to this efficiency, it is safe to drive out the clothes before the end of next month!"

Jiang Ning raised her chin and asked her, "What is the important date next month? Your birthday?"

"of course not!"

"That's Qi Badou's birthday."

Bao Le's face was full of black lines, and while driving the beauty out, he hummed, "You're the one who guesses wildly, and won't you go home and sleep?"

Jiang Ning took her hand and said with a smile, "Return, of course!"

As a result, when Jiang Ning woke up early the next morning, she found that the person on the other side of the bed had slipped away.This is a strange thing. Logically speaking, based on her understanding of Bao Le, this girl hates getting up early the most.

It seems that next month is really important to her, Jiang Meiren became more curious about it.

When Jiang Ning rushed to Yuan Baozhai with an umbrella, Baole had already been busy all morning, and was in the process of stretching the fabric and preparing it for embroidery in a while.Jiang Meiren wore a water-green long dress today, and a pair of dark embroidered shoes on her feet, which were rare with high heels.Therefore, it is less enchanting than before, and looks more elegant and light.She held a lot of things in her hand, candied haws, marshmallows, mung bean cakes and sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, which looked familiar, at least the mung bean cakes and sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were from the sugar shop in the alley.

"Aren't you unable to eat? You still buy so much!"

The little girl snatched the candied haws and bit off one in one bite, her bulging cheeks were very cute.

"What do I buy these for?" Jiang Ning sneered, "They were all given away by others."

Good guy Bao Le called him a good guy!Although it is true that being beautiful is a capital, but Bao Le has been the kanban lady of Yuan Baozhai for almost a year, and he did not say that he has such treatment.At least she has never encountered mung bean cakes or something. What's wrong with the owner of the sugar water shop? He treats them differently according to his appearance!

Jiang Ning glanced at the printed crepe satin on the table, and asked in surprise, "Are you making cheongsam?"

"I've studied it before." Bao Le didn't stop stretching his hands, "but it's the first time I've done it."

More than a hundred years ago, when Jiang Ning was still alive, there were very few tailors who could make cheongsams by themselves, not to mention the rapid development of technology and the ever-changing era.It was strange to see that Jiang Ning moved a chair and sat next to Bao Le, watching her fix the crepe and put it under the sewing machine.The little girl chose the ivory pearl light that matched the color of the material, and as the sewing machine was raised and lowered quickly, she slightly pushed the fabric with her hands.

Under the fine needlework, the prototype of a white peony pops up.

Jiang Ning stared blankly, thinking about the principle, why the texture embroidered by this sewing machine can be long or short, as she likes.Could it be that the sewing machine has become a master?

Seeing her confused face, Bao Le couldn't help being very proud. After all, there are not many opportunities to be proud in front of Jiang Ning.

"This is called hand-push embroidery. The sewing route of the sewing machine is fixed, but you can make various embroidered patterns by fine-tuning the fabric. As for hand-push embroidery, it continues the technique of Su Zhou embroidery," Bao Le touched.The embroidered peony flowers are full of nostalgia, "My hometown is in Suzhou, and everyone in my family has beautiful embroidery skills. As for hand embroidery, it was taught to me by my mother before she passed away. It is actually not difficult.It's much easier to sew on the machine."

It was the first time for Jiang Ning to hear her talk about family affairs, especially hearing her talk about Su Zhou.

"Su Zhou..." Jiang Meiren murmured, and when Bao Le gave her a puzzled look, she smiled sweetly, "So, we are fellow villagers."

Bao Le was surprised: "It's true!"

Jiang Ning just smiled and said nothing.

The embroidery work can be described as cumbersome. In the words of Bao Le, it is necessary to use embroidery threads of different colors to color layer by layer, and use gradient tracing techniques to make these peonies look more vivid.It is also worthy of her reputation of blooming and wealth.With only white petals, three different whites are used, plus the goose-yellow stamens in the center, light green flower stems, and different shades of flowers and leaves. The construction period of just one flower takes three or four days.

After the push embroidery is completed, the frame is removed, and the embroidery pattern has to be perfected by hand.For example, the flower core of the peony flower needs to be embroidered by seed embroidery to form dot-like patterns, which cannot be done by machines.A flower has seven or eight threaded stamens, and there must be seven or eight flower cores on the stamens.

These made Bao Le stay up all night, and when Jiang Ning went to deliver her meals in the morning, she saw the finished embroidered pictures hanging on the shelf.

The white peonies in full bloom one after another are rich and majestic, full of flowers, exquisitely embroidered, and lifelike.

Hearing footsteps, Bao Le raised his head to see Jiang Ning, wiped his saliva, and said in a daze, "I'm going to drive Huakou out today."

Jiang Meiren put warm soy milk on her face, and said that serious people are the prettiest. The way this little girl is immersed in making clothes is a bit exciting.Jiang Ning still likes to sit across from her work table, holding her chin to watch her embroidery, pattern drawing, and tailoring. You can spend a whole day just looking at her.

She didn't need to eat, and she didn't feel that time passed quickly.

When it was dark, the little girl's stomach growled, and she looked up at her pitifully.Only then did Jiang Ning remember that this girl wanted to eat.

Later, Jiang Ning took charge of her three meals a day.

...

A month passed leisurely, and the cheongsam was finally finished in a hurry. Bao Le displayed the finished cheongsam on the mannequin, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he was.For the buckle part, she designed a silver butterfly with tassels, echoing the blooming white peonies, which means "butterfly in love with flowers".

Jiang Ning pushed open the door of Yuan Bao Zhai as usual, and happened to see Bao Le fastening the buckle of her cheongsam.

"Completed?"

The little girl pulled Jiang Ning over with a smile and stood in front of the cheongsam.

Jiang Ning just discovered that this long white cheongsam with double breasts seems to be quite long... She looked up and down Bao Le's body, thinking that the finished suit seemed to be too big on her body, and could be dragged to the ground.

Bao Le was speechless, frowning together, and pinched her arm.

The little girl said: "Look at what I am doing, this cheongsam is for you!"

At that moment, Jiang Ning only felt that the time of the whole world stopped, and she looked at the cheongsam in front of her in shock.For so many years, it has been difficult for her to feel this way because of something, as if her heart that had been dried up had flowed into a clean and clear trickle again.

She stretched out her hand, caressing the delicate peony flower carefully.

"Flowers bloom rich and noble, peonies in the world."

"Isn't this sentence just talking about you? I've wanted to embroider a white peony for you for a long time! I thought about giving you an embroidered fan before, but I think you have the most round fans, and there is no shortage of them.Bao Le put his hands behind his back and looked at his masterpiece with great satisfaction, "Later, I thought, don't you have a cloud shoulder shawl with pearl-color embroidered tassels? It looks like you are wearing a pure white cheongsam, which is too plain.", if this one is just right!"

"The size is made according to the amount measured when we went shopping for clothes together, it is definitely suitable for you," Bao Le thought of something, and hurriedly said, "But I didn't use the Shen family's Bianhua flowers for embroidery, after all, Bianhua flowers are not so auspicious in meaning...."

Jiang Ning shook her head and said, "Peony is very good."

Bao Le floated away, and seeing Jiang Ning's love for her, she felt a sense of accomplishment, and she was worthy of the overtime work this month.

"Put it on and try it!"

Jiang Ning froze for a moment after hearing this, she turned her head and said to Bao Le: "I...I can't wear human clothes."

"Huh?" Bao Le was confused.

"I'm a ghost, and I can't wear human clothes. If you want to give it to me, you need to burn it to me."

Bao Le's brain was running fast, trying to digest her words.The little girl suddenly remembered that she had given Jiang Ning a hairpin before she went to Ya'an, but she saw that hairpin appearing in the jewelry box within two days, could it be because of this reason?

Well, just burn it.The little girl turned her head to look for the brazier and lighter. When she came back, Jiang Ning was still staring at the cheongsam.

"Don't burn it," she said, "You have worked hard for a month, so it's a pity to burn it like this."

Bao Le didn't listen to her, and the hand that lit the fire didn't hesitate at all: "It was made for you, and it must be worn on you! How can I send it to you?"

Jiang Ning looked at the cheongsam that was gradually engulfed by the flames, and sighed, "I'm thinking of me."

Bao Le put his palms together facing the brazier and closed his eyes.This is not a birthday cake blowing, Jiang Ning looked at her amusedly.

The flames in the brazier changed from fiery red to cold blue in an instant. When Bao Le opened his eyes, he happened to see this wonderful scene. It was a bit like the flames they saw on the fifth floor of the Soul Refining Field., the temperature around the flame plummets.

I saw white light slowly emitting from Jiang Ning's body, and after the white light faded, the freshly made cheongsam suddenly appeared on her body, paired with her fringed cloud shoulders, which complemented her beauty, elegant and elegant.

Whoever sees it doesn't secretly admire "It is suspected that the heavenly girl came down to earth, and she wins Xinghua with a smile when she looks back".

...

Bao Le sucked his saliva, looked away from Jiang Ning, took out his mobile phone, and typed a line in the WeChat group named "There is something wrong with this group of people."

Everyone loves Jiang Baole: All living people come out to make a fuss!

Shen Wangyan: ...

Jun: ...

Wealthy peony in the world: bubbling.

Shen Wangyan: Jiang Ning?

Wealthy peony in the world: Are question marks still used here?

Shen Wangyan: It may also be Baole double play.

Bao Le coughed twice, and quickly brought the topic back to the right path.

Everyone loves Jiang Baole: You are all free tomorrow!I booked four tickets to NJEnjoy, let's go out and play together!

Jiang Ning remembered that the date that Baole ticked off on the calendar was indeed tomorrow, but what is this NJEnjoy?She pinched Bao Lefen's tender face. Jiang Meiren knew it was English, but she couldn't understand it.

The little girl hurriedly typed in the group—Jiang Baole, whom everyone loves: It's the manga exhibition, it's 1202, we have to keep up with the trend of the times, right?

Jiang Ning is quite interested in the activities of young people in this era: "In our time, young people like to gather together to go to the square to parade and sit quietly. They are full of patriotism and blood, regardless of gender.What do you like to do together?"

Bao Le almost choked on his own saliva.

Just then, there was new news in the WeChat group.

Shen Wangyan: Jun Zhi said he would go.I won't go, I have to make up lessons tomorrow.

The beloved Jiang Baole: ...?

Shen Wangyan: stayed in Ya'an for too long before, and came back earlier than the time to go back to school, so had to stay on weekends to make up lessons.

The cute Jiang Baole: No, what grade are you in, Boss Shen?

Shen Wangyan: Sophomore year begins.

Jiang Ning remembered something, and said to Bao Le: "Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, Shen Wangyan should have been born in 2002. When he was born, I lived in Shen's house for three months before leaving.He looked like he was going to die at any moment, but he didn't expect to grow so big in the blink of an eye."

"...It's amazing my mother, it's okay after Zero Zero."

Bao Le suddenly realized something, looked up to the sky and screamed: "So, Shen Wangyan is only nineteen years old this year!!!"
