Generals Wang, Bai and Liu entered the West Cross Courtyard. Before they even reached the front of the house, they heard He Xiner's three people snoring, and they all smiled.
"Squeak~"
The door was opened from the outside. He Xiner heard the noise and stretched her neck to look outside.
"It's still warm in the house."
"Yes, it's really cold today. The wind is blowing like a knife."
The three Wangs walked in, covered in cold weather, chatting and laughing.
"Auntie, Aunt Liu, mother, where are you from?"
"From your uncle Guan's house."
Ye Yuanyuan and Guan Cuizhi put their hands behind their backs and called people one by one with sweet smiles.
The space inside was not too big to begin with, but now there were two prosperous braziers, which made the room warm. Three little girls were sitting on the hot kang, all wearing thin clothes.
The three women in thick gowns were not in a hurry to get on the kang. They all washed their hands warmly and took off their coats before getting on the kang one by one.
"Haha, I heard your voices in the yard. Are you playing with this rabbit again?"
"Why are there so many things on the Kang table? Did you three use the scissors?"
"It's the first day of the Lunar New Year, but it's hard to use scissors and do needlework..."
He Xiner was confused.
Well, it's all her fault.
"Hey, um, uh, we came up with a good idea and made some interesting objects using fur..." "Huh? What objects, take them out and have a look."
The three little girls all smiled brightly, and He Xiner said cheerfully, "I'll count one, two, three, and let's stretch out our hands together."
"good."
"One, two, three! Show up!"
"Dang, Dang, Dang, are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Guan Cuizhi, Ye Yuanyuan and He Xiner took action at the same time, placing the things hidden behind them in front of the three of them.
"Oh my God! This snow-white fur ball is so rare!"
"Although this gray one looks ordinary, it is slippery to touch and is very interesting."
"Hey, girl Xin, what's that in your hand? Why does it look like a bear's paw?"
He Xiner covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes sparkling, she was obviously very happy.
"Exactly the bear paw!"
"Oh, hey, it's made like this? It's so funny!"
Not to mention little girls, even Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Bai, and Mrs. Liu also like these plush toys, especially the silly bear claw. The three of them simply can't put it down.
"Auntie, Mother Liu, mother, what do you think of these white fur balls embedded in the brocade belt of the cloak? Doesn't it make the whole cloak look more noble?"
He Xiner got off the kang and took out her red cloak trimmed with white rabbit fur, put it on her body, and gestured with two fur balls for everyone to see.
Everyone said they looked good, and Mrs. Wang even took out the needle and thread to sew the hair ball on for her.
Hey, I got into my own mood and ignored the rules.
"What are these fluffy bear claws for?"
"You can just play with it, or you can sew a lanyard on it and tie it to a bag or hang it on your waist..."
This bear paw is much more troublesome to work on than the fur ball.
It was He Xiner who came up with the idea and drew a simple pattern, but it was Yuanyuan and Cuizhi who worked together to complete it.
It was the first time that the two of them were working as masters on their own, and they were a little nervous because one of them was afraid of wasting the materials.
Fortunately, after learning the craft from the master for so long, I still have a good feel for it. After two hours of busy work, I finally finished it smoothly.
"The bear paw is really interesting, I want to hang it on the cloth bag."
"Haha, when I make another one, I'll hang it around my waist."
"Hey, people hang sachets, purses, jade pendants, etc. on their waists, but you want to hang a stuffed bear paw!"
"If you just want to hang it up, I will hang it on my waist. You can touch the fur while walking..."
