I'm serious about the calamity of fast wear

Chapter 124 The Wife Who Stays in the Cold Kiln (19)
Zhao Yue'e hissed with some toothache, but, what the hell is this suddenly big and small line?

It's obviously a good figure, but it feels like it's drawn with ghostly symbols.

If it weren't for her good eyesight, she really wouldn't be able to see the beauty in it.

"Sorry, I can't get used to this brush, I usually draw with charcoal."

Shi Jiang was not guilty, and even a little confident.

Anyone who has never held a brush to draw, can grasp the weight well, she is the opponent.

"Charcoal pencil? What is charcoal pencil?"

When Zhao Yue'e heard Shi Jiang's words, she immediately asked without shame.

"Where is your kitchen?"

Hearing Shi Jiang's words, Zhao Yue'e subconsciously pointed to the corner at the back of the store.

Her shop belongs to the shop in the front, and people live in the back.

Since he lives here, he naturally has to fire here.

However, in order to prevent Mars from touching the cloth, the kitchen was placed at an off-angle.

Shi Jiang passed by, and after a while, he took a piece of black charcoal in his hand.

Then he took another piece of paper and redrawn the pattern just now.

"Good painting, good flowers!"

Zhao Yue'e held that trick and couldn't put it down. It turns out that the charcoal in the kitchen can be used for this.

Shi Jiang pursed her lips and smiled, can it not look good? Amaryllis, also known as the other shore flower, has cheated the romantic hearts of many boys and girls.

"Shopkeeper, are you satisfied?"

"Satisfied, satisfied, sister, I wonder if you can draw some new patterns?"

Zhao Yue'e quickly took ten coins from the cash drawer, brought those rags and put them in front of Shi Jiang, and asked with bright eyes.

Shi Jiang thought for a while, pointed to a set of clothes in the store and said, "The shopkeeper can ask someone to embroider the manjusawa on both sides of the sleeves of this dress, and embroider a nine-tailed fox on the back. Try embroidering the branch flowers here and there."

Hearing what Shi Jiang said, the embroidered clothes appeared in Zhao Yue'e's mind, and then she took a deep breath.

Such beautiful clothes, if they are matched with good fabrics, no matter how expensive they are, I am afraid that some boudoir lady will buy them.

"Sister, you said the name of this flower is Manjusawa?"

Zhao Yue'e was holding the pattern carefully. She knew about the flower, but it was based on the wavy line structure, combining flowers, buds, branches, leaves, and vines into a lingering decorative pattern, but the name of Manzhushahua This is the first time I heard of it, I had never seen this flower before.

Shi Jiang nodded, and then said: "The flower language of this Manzhushahua means pure and beautiful. There is also another interpretation, which means mutual love. Because of this flower, you can't see the leaves when it blooms, and you can't see the flowers when there are leaves. , the flowers and leaves do not meet each other, and they are always thinking about mistakes, so there is the meaning of mutual love in it."

After hearing Shi Jiang's explanation, Zhao Yue'e immediately filled her mind with a lot of lingering stories, coupled with the appearance of this flower, it really made people imagine.

"Sister, my surname is Zhao, and I am the shopkeeper of this cloth shop. Can you draw me the pattern of the nine-tailed fox you just mentioned, and I will buy it from you for fifteen, no, twenty cash. .In the future, as long as you draw a fancy shape, sister Zhao, I will accept it for [-] yuan, what do you think?"

Zhao Yue'e felt that this lady would definitely bring her many surprises in the future.

Shi Jiang didn't agree directly, but just smiled at Shopkeeper Zhao and said, "It's such a good idea, but there may be something to bring in two days, and I don't know if Sister Zhao will accept it."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and looked at the bag of rags. In Shi Jiang's eyes, it was money.

"Accept, definitely accept."

Zhao Yue'e said without hesitation.

Just based on the way Shi Jiang instructed her to change the clothes, Zhao Yue'e dared to make this bet that she was right.

Shi Jiang came to the town empty-handed, but when he returned, he had ten Wen coins in his arms and a bag of rags in his hand.

It's a pity that in this era, there is no way to produce that kind of steel wire. However, on the way she came to the town, she saw a forest of bitter bamboo. The bamboo was no thicker than a grown man's thumb. It is astringent and bitter, so no one digs and eats it, which leads to a large piece of bitter bamboo forest here.

For the people here, the bamboo is so thin that it would be troublesome to chop it up and use it as firewood.

But for Shi Jiang, this is the best substitute for steel wire.

Split it with a hatchet, the toughness of the bitter bamboo skin itself, and then roast it on a little fire, you can bend it into any shape you want, no problem.

When Shi Jiang came back, he brought a pile of bitter bamboo, the big guy was very curious when he saw it, Shi's father didn't say anything, but Shi's mother couldn't help but stepped forward to persuade him.

"Jiang Niang, this bitter bamboo can't help but burn, don't chop it down in the future."

When Shi Jiang heard this, he smiled at her: "Mother, this is not for burning, I want to take this piece of bitter bamboo and make it into bamboo sticks."

"Ah, isn't this too detailed?"

Shi Mu stared suspiciously at the pile of bitter bamboos, such thin bamboos, even if they were sliced, would not be strong enough to make baskets.

Shi Jiang didn't say anything, just wait for her to make the thing, there is no need to explain at all.

However, Shi Jiang couldn't handle the piece of bamboo by himself, so he asked Shi's father and Shi's second brother to do it together.

The two of them were quick in their hands and feet, and they made a lot of slices before dinner.

While Shi's father and Shi's second brother were cutting bamboo, Shi Jiang also took the pile of scraps of cloth and selected the ones he needed according to the idea in his heart.

"Auntie, what are you doing?"

Baoju didn't care about other things, but she cared very much about Nuhong.

Seeing so many rags, she couldn't help but want to move forward and touch them.

When Shi Jiang saw Shi Baoju came to ask, he didn't hide anything, and said directly: "I want to make something out of this scrap of cloth and sell it. By the way, the shopkeeper of the cloth shop where you embroidered before needs someone who can embroider new patterns. I'll draw one for you later, you embroider it and show it to Shopkeeper Zhao, she will definitely give you some processing money."

Thinking about the nine-tailed fox that shopkeeper Zhao wanted, Shi Jiang felt that the fat would not flow into the fields of outsiders, so it was better to ask Baoju to embroider it and show it to the shopkeeper. I thought of finding Baoju to embroider.

"Auntie, can you still draw flowers?"

Shi Baoju was a little pleasantly surprised, with an envious look on his face.

Gao Shi, who was frowning and wanted to go forward to call her daughter back, paused when she heard what Shi Jiang said.

"Yes, I went to Shopkeeper Zhao's store today, and I just drew a picture for her, and she gave me ten cents, and this bag of rags."

Shi Jiang smiled and took out ten Wen coins from his bosom, and handed it to Shi Mu.

"Mom, you keep the money."

Shi's mother didn't expect her daughter to have such abilities, and she was so happy that she pushed Shi Jiang's hand away.

"You earned it yourself, why would you give it to me? Jiang Niang, when you and Suyun are short of money, keep some for self-defense."
