What Qianmai and Sun Hongmei said, "There is something else", refers to going to Nan Weiwei's house on Sunday morning.
In fact, after more than a year of cooperation, the two sides have already had enough tacit understanding. Normally, in twos and threes, you only need to write detailed remarks and let Nan Weiwei take it back. But today, Qianmai chose to deliver the manuscript in person.
Coming to the door of Nan Weiwei's home in the high-end residential area of Jinghu Garden, Qian Mai took a look at her clothes again through the special anti-theft iron door made by Guang Ke Jian. White short-sleeved bow-knot shirt, light blue skirt with big hem, white sports shoes, plus the simplest ponytail, the ordinary and generous with a youthful breath, I am very satisfied with it. After reconfirming that it was correct, he reached out and pressed the doorbell.
Almost immediately, the door opened from the inside. Then he stuck out Nan Weiwei's face in pajamas with disheveled hair. Qian Mai was surprised, and raised his hand questioningly to check the time. That's right, it's nine o'clock on the appointment. Can’t help asking strangely: "Are you still up? Did I come too early?"
"Quickly come in, my parents have been waiting for you." Nan Weiwei took out a pair of indoor slippers from the shoe cabinet and placed them in front of Qian Wheat: "I got up in the morning, too lazy to freshen up and change clothes, and just lay on the sofa and watched. I’m waiting for you while watching the movie. I’m about to fall asleep again when I watched it. Then you came..."
After changing his shoes, I came in, and on the large sofa in the living room, there was indeed a wrinkled towel quilt. The TV is on, and the DVD picture is fixed on the classic duo of Hao and Shi. At this moment, Cocky Wen was wearing a floral suspender skirt, with two braids, and a thick layer of blush on his face. He winked at Shi Xiaolong: "Am I pretty?"
Looking back at the scene abruptly in front of him, Qianmai couldn't help but bend his waist with a smile covering his mouth.
Nan Weiwei followed, and saw the virtue of the same table, and she couldn't help but curl her lips: "Look at this Shuliang dress, I thought you looked like a dog, and you have finally reborn today. Unexpectedly, just smile like this. It's broken. As expected, ladies can't do it."
Qianmai strongly despised the unkempt little woman in front of him, and the words filled with words conveyed with superb eyes: "You are just a dog."
They are all masters, Nan Weiwei automatically deciphered the meaning in the eyes of the same table, toot the cherry mouth, and without any hurries, two words popped out: "Fake fairy."
The two of them just stood and stared at the TV and watched two little kids playing and making fun, one is the old-fashioned Xiao Zhengtai, and the other is a rogue boy who is playing tricks. The jokes are constant and they are very happy. But after a while, the door of the inner study room opened, and Nan Weiwei's shrewd and capable mother Song Suli walked out: "The wheat is here, I know you are coming when I hear the laughter. Come to the study soon."
"Yes." Qian Mai stood up respectfully. Turning around, she made a grimace at Nan Weiwei, put down the souvenir, and flashed into the study.
The Nan's study room is very simple. The three walls are covered by tall red sandalwood bookcases, which are filled with rows of new large books. On the side of the window, there is a large desk of the same color, with a few chairs in front of it. In a sense, this is a small office and reception room in Nanjia. In Nan Weiwei's words, the symbolic significance of these books to her father who only graduated from junior high school is far greater than the practical significance. Among them, a large part of the role is to show the guests the master's scholarly elegance, even though her father never read a book from beginning to end.
At this moment, Nan Chunming's body was so fat that he was trapped in the widened leather chair behind his desk. Seeing Qianmai coming in, he smiled and motioned for her to sit down.
There were some fruit snacks on the table early, and Song Suli enthusiastically took a handful and placed it in front of Qianmai, motioning her to eat and talk. Latent Wheat is also not welcome. Following the owner's wishes, he peeled off a beef jerky and put it into his mouth to chew.
At this time, Nan Chunming pulled out a few data sheets from the folder, and handed them over and said: "This is your design commission in the last two months. The wholesale price and the number of pieces shipped are here. You can take a look."
"This batch of money has already been credited to your dad's account the day before yesterday. The receipt was originally intended for Weiwei to bring it to you, but I heard that you are coming, so I put it here first." Song Suli added, sitting aside.
"Thank you, uncle and aunt. I have checked it and it has already arrived." Qianmai replied concisely, but he still pulled the calculator on the table and slapped it. After a lot of additions and subtractions, after confirming that they were correct, he grabbed the pen to sign the letters.
Whenever this happens, Nan Chunming and Song Suli will always be surprised at the young, mature and calmness of the 14-year-old girl in front of them.
Push the receipt to Nan Chunming to collect it. Immediately afterwards, Qianmai went straight to the subject, took out a few drawings from his handbag, and spread them out on the table one by one, saying: "This is the late autumn costume I recently conceived. Uncles and aunts take a look, do you like it? "
Nan Chunming and his wife leaned over, and their eyes lit up. The paintings designed this time use the technique of flat-coating and hooking lines, the colors are elegant and generous, the details are clear at a glance, and the line and stripe decorations are also beautiful and concise. Remarks are also written in the lower right corner, and detailed introductions are made on clothing structure, color coordination, and fabric selection. Both of them smiled with satisfaction. Of course, there were some doubts. After comparing a few drawings, Song Suli asked: "Mai, why are the autumn clothes designed this time tend to be professional clothes?"
Qianmai listened to Weiwei and said, "Hong Kong will return in a few months. Recently, TV stations have intensively broadcast Hong Kong TV series and series. The costumes of the professional women in the screen are so exquisite and beautiful. My friends and I like it very much. . Especially the kind of simple and elegant professional suits. I have a hunch that it will be very popular this fall, so I designed these pictures. I personally think that the creamy white three-quarter sleeve small suit can be used as this fall. The main work."
Nan Chunming listened and nodded approvingly: "The current clothing industry, to put it bluntly, is that the mainland looks at Hong Kong and Taiwan, and Hong Kong and Taiwan looks at Europe and the United States. We should not go wrong with the Hong Kong typhoon. Recently, people all over the streets are celebrating the return of Hong Kong. It’s really good for you to be able to realize this from TV dramas at a young age."
Hehe, I am not young anymore. Qian Mai muttered in his heart, flushed and lowered his head. But he responded respectfully to Nan Chunming’s praise: “I’ve heard something from my teacher before, which is still fresh in my memory. He said: “Wenzhou people often look at the news network to make investments. In addition to the scrutiny of news content and background, they even meticulously studied the order of the leaders’ appearances and the length of time taken by the camera before considering the direction and amount of investment.’ The teacher said this is called "seeing Wei Zhi". I am also After listening to what he said, I discovered it after slowly observing it in life."
"Well, well, it's good to do this." Nan Chunming was very pleased and touched after hearing this, what a sensible girl this is. At a young age, she earns money and learns well, and her grades are pretty good. What's more important is that she really heard what the teacher said to her heart, instead of studying to cope with exams like some stunned youngsters. Therefore, he has always attached great importance to the words of this little girl.
So, he continued: “It’s already in June and time is running out. Then we might as well start the program and try it out. Of course, wheat, you go back and think about it. You can also design a few more sets of other types and styles to take a look. ."
But this time, Qianmai did not immediately agree to the interface. Instead, he typed a bit of a draft in my heart and slowly said: "Uncles and aunts, thank you for the opportunity you have given me this year, so that I have made a lot of money without worrying about food and clothing. However, the ink in my stomach is all used. It's gone, now I can't think of a satisfactory work anymore... So, after finishing this issue, I won't do it for the time being."
When Nan Chunming and his wife heard it, they didn't know it, and they were all stunned: "Is this not a good cooperation? Why not do it?"
Qianmai explained with a smile: "I'm only Jiang Lang now. Although I drew a few pictures this time, a lot of hair has been caught. It's really hard work and frowning to get it together. I think, instead of worrying about it every day, it’s better to give up temporarily, concentrate on studying, and work hard to improve your own literacy. Maybe I can think about it, and I can design better things."
"Then you can also work part-time while studying? We have always cooperated very freely, without giving you any specific pressure. Haven't you been doing very well? I heard Weiwei say that you have always been very relaxed in your studies. It shouldn’t be too much time for the draft, right?"
Song Suli frowned, still trying to stay. If other designers in the company were to resign, she wouldn't say so. But Weiwei, a classmate, she didn't want to lose. Although he is young, his eyesight is very old, it may be luck. In short, every time she designs clothes are big sellers. Last year, several garments were sold in millions, but they were sold out of stock. This year, she has indeed made a lot of money from her own family. And her fashionable, pretty, varied, and refreshing design style has also attracted many colleagues who frequently inquire about Avril’s behind-the-scenes designer. Could it be that someone dug a corner
In this case, Nan Chunming asked Song Suli's question: "Mai, did other places give you higher design fees?..."
"No, Uncle Nan. I promise that from beginning to end, I only worked part-time design in your company." Before he could think carefully, Qianmai hurriedly said: "The reason why I made such a big determination this time is because I will be in the second grade right away. It's going to pass. In the new school year of the third year of junior high, I want to work hard and get admitted to a better school... Now compulsory education is popular, but the student source battle has become more intense. Last year, there were Hangzhou, Ningbo, Huayang, etc. The key high school in the region is to pick students from one middle school. This is pressure for me, but it is more of an opportunity... I want to try. Compared with money, I value my future more."
Speaking of this kind of sake, Nan Chunming and his wife are not good to say anything. It was Song Suli who calmed down first, and slowly chatted about the daily routine: "Are you not going to study in the first high school in high school?"
"There is a better chance, why not try? I live away from home in the first middle school, and live away from home when I go to Hangzhou and Huayang. The nature is the same."
At the end, Qian Mai smiled and asked: "Uncles and aunts, I have something to ask you."
"Let's talk." The two said in unison. After more than a year of contact, the couple have a very good impression of the girl in front of him who is both good in character and learning, and well-behaved. Although the cooperative relationship no longer exists, but from the bottom of my heart, I am willing to treat her as a daughter.
Qianmai said: "One, I work part-time in Avair apparel company design, please continue to remain silent. If someone who really can't resist asks, I might as well say that it was designed by my aunt."
Song Suli couldn't help being amused: "I'm doing sales at most, I don't understand this."
Qianmai was reluctant, and took the nearby Song Suli's hand and shook it gently, and sincerely asked: "Auntie, you have moral responsibility on your shoulders, and help me block the disturbances from the outside world. In this way, I can study more concentratedly. "
Song Suli was still considering it, but Nan Chunming spoke first: "If this is what you want, then we will help you cover it up. No one will bother you. What about the other one?"
"With my current grades, I may not be able to be admitted to a key school in the field. So don't talk to Weiwei for now, it will only increase the sadness. When the time is right, I will talk to her myself."
"Okay." Nan Chun agreed neatly, shifting his body, and rarely said a few words of encouragement: "Mai, you are a child with principles and ideas. Now that you have started planning and designing, you will work hard next. Well. No matter how much you pay, it is worthwhile for your own future. Although the first middle school is good, but it is only limited to the golden field, young people should go out and take a look. If there is any difficulty in the future, come to your uncle If I can help, my uncle will definitely help. Our family, Weiwei, graduated from junior high school, and your aunt and I are also planning to send her to study abroad. This will also be on the agenda in a while."
"Yes." This was expected. Latent Wheat is not surprised at all. In Jintian, people from wealthy families, after their children have grown up enough to take care of themselves, in order for the children to stand higher and fly farther in the future, they will cruelly send the children out of this small mountain town to a wider world. Learning experience. This can be regarded as another manifestation of parents' love for their children.
Thinking of her daughter's upcoming journey, Song Suli couldn't help feeling sad: "Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, you will all grow up and will leave our parents. Mai, since you have your own plans, we don't want to stay too much. . But in the future, if you have any clothes you have designed, you might as well get Avril again, and the door of our house will open for you at any time."
Qianmai was very touched, and his heart warmed, saying, "Thank you for your uncle and aunt's care and support. I will study hard to make myself a real designer. If there is any clothing work, I will definitely be the first to invest in Ivy. You."
Yes, all the sketches are now pieced together from my memory. To put it nicely is design; to put it ugly is plagiarism. Now, I have saved enough money to achieve small goals. This is a gift from God to me, and I don't want to rely on my prophet to claim it without limit. Because I know the "Goldfish and Fisherman Story". At the end of the story, when people become greedy and overwhelming, the sea will make you lose everything again. So, let's stop here for plagiarism. Until one day, when I become a real designer with my own strength, I will once again board this colorful and dazzling stage.
