"Sorry." Hua Jin was stunned for a long time as she saw the girl tightly holding the wheelchair's hand, "It was me who disturbed me."
Looking at the girl's red eyes, Hua Jin gradually recovered from the joy of finding the weaver, she forgot how terrifying people are in such a small place.
Traditional handicrafts, which have been respected in big cities in recent years, are luxury goods with little practical value in small places and will not be respected. The economic level determines the consumption concept. She stayed in the big city for too long and almost forgot the consumption habits of the small city.
She didn't know what had happened to the weaver and her daughter, but the other party's reaction was so big, which showed that the memory was painful for them, and she was not qualified to reveal it.
Seeing that Hua Jin was about to leave, Pei Yan was puzzled: "You don't want to try harder?"
Hua Jin shook his head and said to Pei Yan, "There is a temple of the God of Wealth on the mountain next to it. Let's go and worship the God of Wealth, and ask him to bless us and make a fortune."
"Hua Xiaojin, don't you value this fashion conference?"
"I really value it, and I hope that through this opportunity, more people can see the beauty of traditional handicrafts, but these are all my thoughts and my ambitions." Walking on the bluestone road, Hua Jin listened to When it comes to the sound of the wind blowing, "The meaning of art and beauty is to make people happy, not painful. If the cart before the horse is put upside down, there is no need to exist."
In a traditional musical instrument store, there was a pleasant sound of music. In order to attract customers, the owner sat at the door of the store and beat a tambourine. The ding ding dong dong was very lively.
However, most of the passers-by looked at him with a lively look, and then walked away slowly. The business was not good. The owner didn't care either, he was happy to take pictures.
Seeing this scene, Hua Jin couldn't help laughing: "Some things can't be forced too much. Forcing is disrespect to others."
"I see." Pei Yan said, "In the remaining two days, will you take me around in Xugou City?"
"Okay." Hua Jin smiled, "I also want to know what the entire Xugou City has become now."
"Wait a minute."
"Wait a minute!"
Hearing the anxious call from behind, Hua Jin stopped and looked back, it was the young girl in the wheelchair. The bluestone pavement was uneven, and her wheelchair swayed to and fro, so frightened Hua Jin took two steps in her direction and helped her hold the wheelchair.
The girl held her arm tightly, looked at her panting and said, "I, I'll take you to see my mother."
"You..." Hua Jin didn't expect that she would suddenly change her mind.
"Whether my mother is willing to cooperate with you, I can't guarantee it. You can discuss with her about cooperation." The girl turned her face away, "I won't say good things for you."
"Thank you." Hua Jin glanced at the bodyguards and assistants who were following her and Pei Yan, and whispered to Pei Yan, "The mother and daughter should live alone, so let the assistant and the bodyguard wait outside. Well, so many adult men go in, I'm afraid it will make them uneasy."
"Okay." Pei Yan understood Hua Jin's concerns, he turned around and said a few words to the assistant, asking him to arrange it.
Aunt Cao and her daughter live on this street. Because they want to maintain the original appearance of the street, the houses here are all low wooden buildings and green tile houses. Passing through a dim alley, Hua Jin saw a low building. In the green-tiled house, a woman in her fifties or sixties was rummaging through the dried vegetables that were drying outside.
"Mom." The young woman called out, and the woman turned around, looking a little haggard. She didn't seem to expect outsiders to come. Aunt Cao half-squinted her eyes and looked behind Hua Jin and Pei Yan, and found that there were several tall and tall men behind them. Next to the woman, she stopped her and said, "I and that man have long since divorced. The debt he owes outside is none of my business. You should leave immediately, or I will call the police."
"Mom, they didn't come to ask for debts." The young woman held down the old woman's hand. "This lady is an embroiderer from a big city. She wants to ask you to weave Shu brocade."
"Shu Jin?" The woman stared blankly at Hua Jin, her eyes brightened, but soon dimmed again, "I'm sorry, I haven't been in this business for several years, you can find someone else."
"Hello Aunt Cao, I'm an embroiderer at Fanhua Studio. I have been working on Shu embroidery all these years." Hua Jin noticed Aunt Cao's eyes, and handed her business card to her with both hands, "This time, I will I sincerely seek cooperation, and I hope you will consider it.”
Aunt Cao's eyes were a little flustered. She didn't pick up Huajin's business card, but turned her head: "Lanlan, please treat the guests well, the chicken soup in the pot is about to dry, I'll take a look."
Looking at the back of Aunt Cao leaving in a hurry, Hua Jin sighed in her heart.
"A few years ago, my dad owed a lot of money outside. The creditor accidentally pushed me down when he came to the door, causing my lower body to be paralyzed. In order to take care of me, my mom and dad divorced and closed the cloth shop. I touched a loom." The young woman's eyes filled with tears, "My mother kept the Shu brocade woven at night vigil, and it was treated as a bargain to the neighbors, and it was also disliked and impatient to get dirty."
"My mother said that several generations of her ancestors were Shu brocade masters. When she was in the generation of her great-grandmother, her loom was burned because of poor ingredients. After the educated youth went to the countryside, her great-grandmother married a poor peasant family here. The woman wiped away her tears. "My mother told me when I was a child that she likes weaving very much. My grandmother also said that she is very talented and will be the most outstanding Shu brocade teacher in the Cao family."
"But grandma didn't know that this industry is no longer needed in this era, and no matter how good the talent is, it's useless." The young woman grinned and laughed at herself, "Come and sit down."
"If that's the case, why did you bring us here?" Hua Jin pushed the wheelchair under the shade of a tree, dragged a long bench, and sat down with Pei Yan.
The assistants and bodyguards had already exited the alley after confirming that there was no one else here. So the small courtyard with only the three of them was very quiet. Hua Jin looked at the pomegranate tree with its fruit hanging in the courtyard and thought to herself, are the pomegranates ripe
"I know she likes weaving, even though the loom at home has accumulated a thick layer of dust in the utility room." The young woman lowered her head and said after a long time, "In this life, she has been harmed by my dad a few times. For ten years, I don't want me, my daughter, to be the second scourge to her."
Didn't expect to get this answer, Hua Jin thought that this young girl with disabled legs hated Shu Jin.
"What I hate is not the profession that my mother likes, but I hate that she has paid so much for this profession, but she has not been rewarded." The young woman looked at the brocade, "If you hadn't lied to me, my mother's brocade would have a chance to go to the brocade. She will be delighted to be at an international fashion conference."
Hua Jin put the business card that Aunt Cao didn't receive and put it in the girl's hands: "When I was ten years old, when my grandmother and I went to the street, I accidentally found the cloth shop opened by Aunt Cao, and I was not afraid of your jokes. I thought the cloth in the shop would shine, and Aunt Cao was a fairy from heaven."
The young woman was stunned. She looked at the beautiful woman in front of her and couldn't help asking, "Really?"
"Really, I don't come to the county very often, but every time I enter the city, I secretly come to the store door to take a look." Hua Jin said, "So when it comes to the selection of clothing materials, the first person I think of is Aunt Cao. ."
"I understand." The young girl tightly held the business card in her hand, looked up at the door of the main house, and raised her voice: "Mom, promise her, I also want to see the brocade that glows."
There was no movement in the house.
After a long time, Aunt Cao came out with red eyes and tea in her hand. She looked around: "How about the other guests?"
"They like the scenery of your land very much, so they went out to enjoy the scenery." Pei Yan took the tea she brought and thanked her.
Such scenic streets are found in many cities, so it is nothing unusual. Aunt Cao guessed that the two young people did not want to cause trouble for themselves, so she let the others leave first. She looked up at Pei Yan and Hua Jin, hesitated for a moment and asked, "You organized the fashion conference?"
"It's not like this." Hua Jin explained what happened, and after Aunt Cao understood it completely, she said, "This conference is very important to the fashion industry and our traditional handicraft industry. I hope you can cooperate with us."
Aunt Cao didn't say good or bad. She glanced at her daughter and said to Hua Jin, "You and this gentleman, please come with me."
Hua Jin and Pei Yan followed Aunt Cao into the room. The room was a little dark, and they could smell the damp wood. Aunt Cao took them to a low wooden door and unlocked the top lock with a key.
As soon as the door was opened, Hua Jin was so choked by the dust that she couldn't help coughing. Then she found that the hut was empty, except for a dusty loom.
"I haven't touched it for five years." Aunt Cao wiped the dust off the loom, which creaked. She picked up a shuttle and smiled bitterly: "This loom is broken."
"I will arrange the best loom for you." Pei Yan said, "If you are willing, there will be a foundation to support the local Shu brocade industry and help you expand the sales channels of Shu brocade."
Aunt Cao did not speak.
"What you have insisted on for a lifetime, since you are willing to let it go, why don't you have the courage to pick it up again?" Pei Yan said, "If someone says that you insist on something for a lifetime, you can't get money or benefits, you should borrow it all the more. Take the next opportunity and slap those people in the face. Even if you don't care about these, you have to fight for your children. You have to let everyone know that the craftsmanship that has been passed down for so many years is a treasure, and it is a precious gift left to us by our ancestors. heritage."
"For Lan Lan..." Aunt Cao was a little lost.
"For her, but also for yourself." Hua Jin took over, "At least you have to prove that your persistence for so many years is meaningful."
"I see." Aunt Cao nodded, "I don't care about the remuneration, but I only have one request."
"Please say."
"If I need to go to a big city, I'll take Lan Lan with me. She has inconvenient legs and feet. I'm worried that she will be bullied by others when I'm not here."
"It should be." Hua Jin showed a bright smile on her face, "Thank you very much for your willingness to cooperate with me."
In the studio, the assistant who received the news said to Mark: "Sir, the flower embroiderer has found an unsuitable Shu Jin teacher, and he will come back in two days."
Mark nodded: "When you go to the restaurant to reserve a seat, I would like to thank the embroiderer for his rushing these days."
"Sir." The assistant hesitated, "What if the weaver that the embroidery master is looking for is unreliable, what should we do?" She said that Shu embroidery should be worn with Shu brocade to better highlight the style of clothes, and it was also the Shu brocade teacher she hired. , who knows if it was her deliberate reason
"Do you know why most of the collaborators are willing to cooperate with me for the second time after working with me?" Mark put down the design draft and glanced at the assistant: "I don't have any doubts about using people, but I don't have to."
"Yes." The assistant changed his face. He knew that what he said just now made Mr. Mark unhappy.
"Miss Hua, she is a person who is responsible for her own work. The Shu Jin teacher she found will definitely not disappoint."
It was the first time in her life that she took a personal plane, and Lan Lan felt a little dazed. This time, in order to invite her mother to participate in the cooperation, Miss Hua not only arranged a place for them to live, but also specially invited two people to take care of their diet and daily life. I heard that one of them has a good understanding of medical theory.
She saw the sincerity of the other party, but the only thing she didn't expect was that they were so rich.
Before coming, relatives and friends were worried that they would be deceived. Now that she got on the plane, she suddenly felt that even if the rich people with private jets were liars, they would not bother to deceive them.
Aunt Cao didn't expect the young couple to be so rich. She sat cautiously beside her daughter and stared at the white clouds rolling out of the window in a daze.
Now, can more people really appreciate the Shu brocade she weaves
This Xiang Huajin and Pei Yan had their wishes come true, but the Xu family was in a miserable situation and had no way to ask for help.
This week, the Xu family's business suffered repeated setbacks, but those who wanted to help the Xu family found that Pei Yan was not there at all, and he accompanied his girlfriend on a trip abroad.
Everyone immediately understood that Pei Yan was going on a trip, and he was clearly telling everyone that it was useless for anyone to intercede. Even if the old man of the Xu family died of illness in the hospital, he would not change his decision, just to have trouble with the Xu family.
The old man of the Xu family lived embarrassingly in the hospital for several days. Seeing that Pei Yan was really unwilling to stay, he had to go home.
Not long after he returned home, Xu Changhui, who was about to go abroad, was taken away by the police on the grounds of drunk driving, drug driving, and intentional harm to others.
A year ago, Xu Changhui had a conflict with someone in a bar and seriously injured a person. He didn't expect to be turned over again after so long.
Only then did the Xu family fully understand that it was impossible for Pei Yan to let Xu Changhui go. Mr. Xu was sent to the hospital again, this time he was not acting, but was really sent to the emergency ward.
When they heard that Pei Yan was coming back on Monday, the two brothers Xu Yi and Xu Qiang stood at the door of Pei Yan's house early that morning. When things got to this point, they had no choice but to throw away all their faces and begged Pei Yan.
The two waited at the gate of Pei Yan for several hours before finally waiting for Pei Yan's car to appear.
"Mr. Pei!" Xu Yi has been rolling around in the mall for many years, knowing that sometimes things like face are useless. He opened his arms and stopped in front of Pei Yan's car: "Mr. Pei, please give me a few minutes."
Looking at Xu Yi who was standing in front of the car, Hua Jin suddenly remembered the look in his eyes when he first saw Xu Yi in the courtyard.
It's like looking at the rubble on the ground, the excess weeds, sitting there is excess.
What an aloof person, what an elegant person, but when asking for help, his posture was no better than that of her who was seriously injured and lying on the ground.
Pei Yan glanced at Hua Jin, who was silent beside him, and said to the driver, "Don't worry about it."
Seeing the car start again, Xu Yi's heart was ruthless, and he climbed onto the windshield: "Mr. Pei, how on earth are you willing to let the Xu family go?"
Through the windshield, Xu Yi saw that there was another woman in Pei Yan's car, a woman who made Pei Yan turn against their Xu family despite the presence of many guests.
Hua Jin's eyes met Xu Yi's, and the corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled at him.
"The Xu family is the Xu family, and any shameless means can be used." Pei Yan sneered, "In terms of shamelessness, who can compare with their family."
Pei Yan opened the car window and said to Xu Yi and Xu Qiang, "Okay, let's all go in, lest others think I hired a juggler team to sing a big show at the door."
This sentence was extremely arrogant and rude. Hua Jin saw the muscles on Xu Yi's face trembling, but she didn't show any dissatisfaction.
She frowned, such a person is much more terrifying than someone who shows joy and anger on his face.
The group returned to the villa, and Pei Yan took Hua Jin's hand and sat down in the main seat. He leaned back on the sofa and looked at Xu Qiang and Xu Yi lazily: "I don't know what the two uncles of the Xu family are doing for me?"
"Please forgive our Xu family, Mr. Pei." Xu Qiang was straight, and immediately said, "You and I have been friends for many years, why bother to this point because of a woman."
"Rao?" Pei Yan squinted, "Uncle Xu, what do you mean by this, there is a problem in your company's business, what does it have to do with me? This junior is just a lazy boy who doesn't care about production. Compared to the business elite?"
Hearing this, Xu Qiang suddenly remembered that Xu Yi commented on Pei Yan a few years ago behind his back.
Not doing production, idling around, the scourge of the Pei family.
Could it be that these words were known by the party Pei Yan
