"Sister, how many embroideries do you have in your embroidery workshop now?" Su Laosan suddenly asked.
The little sugar baby retracted his gaze at a 45-degree angle and looked at the back of the third brother.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Not many, because everyone has just started to learn. They only know one or two simple embroidery methods and cannot embroider stunning embroidery. They are basically handkerchiefs, sachets, purses and the like.
Among the small items, some are well embroidered, some are unsatisfactory, and some are extremely crude."
When the little sugar baby said this, he paused and then said: "Auntie Gu has embroidered some small Kang screens, which look extremely exquisite and can especially reflect the mysterious oriental art."
"Mysterious Oriental Art" is the original words Su Laosan learned from overseas.
"By the way, Sister Liuzhi used double-sided embroidery to embroider several fans, which are also very artistic." Little Sugar Baby added.
It has to be said that Liuzhi does have a talent for embroidery, and under the guidance of Gu embroidery lady, she has made rapid progress.
Double-sided embroidery is difficult to learn, but Liu Zhi is actually able to learn it now.
Although she is far inferior to the ancient embroiderers, her embroidery skills are more exquisite than those of ordinary embroiderers.
Su Laosan listened to Xiao Tangbao's words and said: "Good embroidery has a good price, and bad embroidery has a bad price. In the end, as long as you go overseas and things are rare and expensive, you can sell them at a satisfactory price."
.”
The little sugar baby agreed very much with what the third brother said.
Talking along the way, we soon arrived at Baicao Village.
Su Laosan came here once, so naturally he went straight to Old Man Tian's house.
However, Dahong knew the way and pulled the carriage to Old Man Tian's house without Su Laosan's command.
Su Laosan quickly pulled the horse's rein.
"Slow down, slow down..."
Su Laosan shouted, but Dahong was too excited and didn't listen at all.
"Bitch! Go to the river and wash your clothes! Who can you show to me for crying all day long?! You are really a star of mourning!"
Following a sharp yell, an unkempt woman ran out of the door of a nearby house.
The woman seemed to have been chased and beaten out. She ran out in a panic and almost hit the carriage.
Su Laosan pulled hard on the reins and made Dahong stop.
The woman was startled.
Then, when he raised his head——
His expression froze.
"Third... Third brother..." The woman's lips moved.
Su Laosan had no expression on his face, jumped off the carriage, and led Da Hong forward.
It was as if he didn't see the woman.
The little sugar baby looked at the woman through the car window, his eyes slowly widening.
This is - Zhang Malya?
If I hadn't been able to tell something vaguely based on my eyebrows, the little sugar baby would really not believe that this woman with a withered face and shabby clothes had lived in their house for so long and finally developed fair skin. I feel pity for her.
Sister Zhang.
In just over half a year, he actually seems to have aged more than ten years.
"Why are you still standing there? Are you trying to hook up with a man again?! Can't you live without a man?!" A sharp yell came from inside the door.
Immediately, a woman holding a fire stick ran out from the door.
The woman had gray hair and high cheekbones. She looked at Zhang Malya as if she were an enemy.
Zhang Malya seemed to be frightened by the woman's beating and scolding. There was a look of panic on his face, and he ran towards the river with the wooden basin.
However, while running, he looked back at Su Laosan's back.
The little sugar baby looked at Old Man Su.
"Dad, do you recognize it?"
Old Man Su nodded.
He naturally recognized Zhang Malya.
However, seeing Zhang Malya in this situation, the original anger towards Zhang Malya in my heart almost dissipated.
"Dad, sister, we're here." Su Laosan held Dahong's hand and stopped at a house next door.
The little sugar baby looked at Su Laosan.
"Third brother, you... knew this a long time ago?" Little Sugar Baby asked hesitantly.
Su Laosan nodded calmly and took the little sugar baby down.
Yesterday, he already knew that Zhang Malya lived here.
He and Su Laosi were in front of the gate of Old Han Tian's house when they heard the yelling and cursing in the yard next door, as well as Zhang Malya's grievances and excuses.
Both Su Lao San and Su Lao Si could all recognize Zhang Malya's voice.
What's more, the two of them also saw the man who went to Su's house and carried Zhang Malya away.
Obviously, Zhang Malya eventually followed that man.
However, neither brother mentioned this matter.
After all, Zhang Malya has nothing to do with their family now.
"Big red!"
A surprised voice rang out.
Old man Tian came out of his home carrying a hoe and saw the bright red color in front of the door.
"咴咴咴——"
Dahong screamed happily at Old Man Tian.
Old man Tian threw the hoe to the ground, touched the big red head with both hands, and his eyes filled with tears of excitement.
"Son, you really still remember dad..."
"咴咴咴咴——"
"Okay, good son, daddy is fine, I just miss you..."
Su Laosan looked at this scene in surprise.
I feel more confident that today will not be in vain.
The little sugar baby smiled, interrupting the touching scene of father and son's reunion.
"Hello, uncle."
When Old Man Tian lowered his head and looked at the little girl on the ground, he immediately recognized her benefactor.
"Why are you here, my benefactor? Come to the house and invite me." Old man Tian said enthusiastically.
After saying that, he looked at Old Man Su again.
"Brother, come in quickly."
Immediately, his eyes looked at Su Laosan.
His expression changed.
This person came yesterday!
"Uncle Tian." Su Laosan clasped his fists, "I'm here to disturb you again."
Old man Tian looked at Mr. Su, then at Mr. Su and Little Sugar Baby.
"you……"
"Hahaha...this is my son." Old Man Su said with a smile.
Old man Tian, "..."
I understand in my heart.
Even though he knew the purpose of Old Man Su and his son's visit, Old Man Tian still invited people in.
Tian's house has four main rooms, with wing rooms on both sides.
The window in the main room opens very wide.
The yard is also very large and kept very clean.
The little sugar baby looked at the layout of the Tian family and could roughly tell that the days of the Tian family must have been pretty good.
only--
The little sugar baby glanced at the copper lock on the main door, and then followed Old Man Tian into the side room of the Tian family.
After the guests and hosts were seated, before Old Man Su and others could express their intention of coming, Old Man Tian took the initiative and said, "Brother and my little benefactor, are you here for the wood carving?"
Old Man Tian has made it clear, so Old Man Su will not beat around the bush.
"Exactly, since I guessed it, I won't hide it and tell the truth." Old Man Su said: "My son wants to buy a batch of wood carvings to be sold overseas. I heard that my ancestors were proficient in this craft, so I wanted to ask.
Ask, brother, do you have any ready-made wood carvings or anything like that..."
After listening to Old Man Su's words, Old Man Tian showed a wry smile and said, "I must have inquired about my family's situation. To be honest, I have sealed the knife, but -"
When Old Man Tian said this, he glanced at the little sugar baby.
Immediately, he stood up and said again: "Brother, my little benefactor, come with me."
