Lin Qingwan cut the inner lining and the outer lining, glued the upper, and took it to the stove to bake with the sole.

After finishing this set, Lin Qingwan found that her hand was not unfamiliar at all, and she was a little chaotic at first, but she became extremely skilled after doing it.

She rummaged through the memory of the original owner in her mind, and only then did she realize that Lin Qingwan also had a craftsmanship, that is, the embroidery was not bad.

Embroidery is a skill that most ladies must master. Many big families even invite some embroiderers to teach their daughters embroidery.

Although Lin Qingwan used to be a little transparent in the Lin family, the Liu family never specially asked her master to teach her some ladies' talents. However, literacy and embroidery are necessary. The former is used to copy Buddhist scriptures when punishing her, while the latter is a must for women in this era.

Lin Qingwan used to make some clothes and shoes for her brother Lin Qingting. Later, as she got older, her craftsmanship gradually improved, and all the clothes Lin Qingting wore were made by Lin Qingwan...

Thinking of this, Lin Qingwan couldn't help being a little surprised...

It's also a craft, isn't it?

Some of the things she met in modern times were useless here, but I didn't expect that the original owner still left some useful things for her.

Picking up the vamp on the table, Lin Qingwan eagerly began to thread the needle.

With just a few stitches, a small dragonfly appeared on the black shoe upper, which looked lifelike and its wings trembled, as if it were alive.

Yang saw what Lin Qingwan was embroidering there, and after a while of embroidering, she saw that she was looking at the upper of the shoe, so she approached.

Looking at it, I was surprised.

Oh, Wan'er, you're a good embroiderer girl. Mrs. Yang took the vamp over to look at it, and admired while stroking the stitches on it.

The stitches are flat, and the embroidery is amazing. The most rare thing is that you can embroider flowers without sketching. Looking at the little dragonfly, the embroidery is really vivid.

I studied for a few years before. Lin Qingwan was also very happy in her heart, but her words were very subtle.

It's really good, I don't know how much better than Auntie's craftsmanship. Yang shi said, and took out a needle and thread basket from the kang cabinet.

There are many things in the basket, including several bundles of embroidery threads of various colors, thimbles, scissors, etc., as well as a purse that is more than half made.

Yang's handed the purse to Lin Qingwan to see.

The purse has a green bottom and a clean surface. More than half of it has been made. Only the holes are punched and the drawstring is attached. It is a very simple drawstring purse. It's just strange that there is no embroidery on it. In Lin Qingwan's impression, the purse needs to be embroidered...

Lin Qingwan looked at the Yang family suspiciously.

Mr. Yang explained to her slowly, This is a purse made for the embroidery workshop. Like this simplest blank purse, one is made of four coins. The embroidery shop provides needlework and thread fabrics, and we only make handmade ones.

Can this also make money? Lin Qingwan was very surprised.

I think back then, my auntie's man left early, the child was still young, and the family had only a few acres of thin fields. Life was very difficult, and it was relying on this little craftsmanship to supplement the family and pull the baby to grow up.

When Yang Shi remembered the hardships after the death of the man in the early years, he was full of heartache.

Orphans and widowed mothers, living in the countryside relying on strong labor for food, the life is conceivably difficult.

...Fortunately, the baby grows up and has a bright future, which made me worry a lot less. But I haven't given up this craft, and I can always add some money to the family. Yang shi wiped the corners of his eyes and smiled, But my aunt is getting old, and my eyes are useless, so every time I come back to do some work that doesn't need embroidery.

Lin Qingwan heard this, and her mind moved, Can I do this work?

Of course you can, that's what my aunt thinks. I think your craftsmanship is so good, so you don't need to waste a lot of money. You can try to take some simple work and come back to practice your skills first, and then consider whether you want to do some large pieces of embroidery.

That's what the Yang family came up with, and wanted to find a job for Lin Qingwan that could earn some money, so as to make up for the family after getting married.

Country people rely on the sky to eat, and money is not too difficult to handle, but if you can save some, it is a little bit.

Tomorrow, my aunt is going to work in the town, how about I take you there to see?

Okay. Of course Lin Qingwan would not refuse, this is a job that can make a living by herself.

Anyway, try it first. If you can, you will be able to support yourself in the future.

☆, rumors will start

In the early morning of the second day, the Yang family took Lin Qingwan to the town.

Because Luoyun Town was almost an hour away from Luoxia Village, they got up very early.

After breakfast, the two went out.

At this time, the genius was slightly translucent, and there were no people on the trail of the village.

Lin Qingwan was wearing an old dress that the Yang family specially found for her, dark blue. When she put it on, at first glance, she looked like an ordinary rural woman.

Lin Qingwan understood what Yang meant. It was not good for an unmarried woman to be too dazzling to walk outside. Therefore, her hair was not combed in a bun, but was casually tied, and a blue rough cloth handkerchief was wrapped around her head like many little daughters-in-law.

The two walked all the way, out of Luoxia Village, and after a while, Yang stopped under a willow tree with a crooked neck on the side of the road.

The ox cart will come in a while, let's wait here for a while. Yang explained to her.

The early morning fog has not yet dissipated, lingering on the tip of people's noses.

Lin Qingwan took a deep breath, feeling the whole

All lungs are alive. The air here is really good, fresh, natural and pollution-free.

After standing for less than a quarter of an hour, a bell sounded far away.

After a while, an old man driving an ox cart appeared in front of them.

Sister Yang, go to the town. The old man greeted Mrs. Yang. Although he was not from the same village, every time Mrs. Yang went to the town, he rode his bullock cart, so after a long time, they became familiar with each other. .

Take my niece to see the town. Mrs. Yang took the copper plate and took Lin Qingwan into the ox cart.

There were a lot of people sitting on the ox cart, but there seemed to be none from Luoxia Village, and Lin Qingwan didn't see anyone greeting Yang's. She couldn't help but feel relieved, after all, her identity was still quite embarrassing at this time.

Hey—all seated. The old man's whip slapped in the air, and the ox cart slowly moved forward.

By the time we got to the town, the sun was already rising.

After getting off the ox cart, Mrs. Yang took Lin Qingwan's old horse to shuttle around the town.

After walking for a while, they stopped at the entrance of an embroidery shop called 'Jinxiufang', and the two walked in.

The embroidery shop is not big, but the goods are very complete. There are many kinds of fabric rulers densely packed on the shelves, and there are many embroidery items, purses and various ties on some shelves.

Aunt Yang is here... The proprietress standing at the counter was very young, in her 30s, she seemed to be familiar with Mrs. Yang, and when she saw Mrs. Yang coming in, she greeted her with a warm smile.

Hello, Manager Su. Mrs. Yang also smiled enthusiastically. Seeing that the two were familiar with each other, she put the burden in her hand on the counter. I'm here to work, Manager Su, please check it out.

After Lin Qingwan entered the shop, she wandered inside, looking at the fabrics and embroidery on the shelves.

Those embroidery items are colorful and very beautiful and festive, but Lin Qingwan can see that the embroidery workmanship of these embroidery items is not very good.

how to say? It can only be said that these embroidery products are only embroidered patterns, but the embroidery is not charming, and some stitches are also used wrong.

It is almost an innate sense of familiarity. When Lin Qingwan saw these embroidery products, the embroidery method and stitching method of these embroidery products appeared in her mind, and it could even be extended to how to improve these embroidery products in order to make them better. The embroidery of these embroidery is more perfect.

After watching for a while, Lin Qingwan made up her mind. Feeling that with his own craftsmanship, he should be able to receive work here, so he turned around and came to Yang's side again.

Shopkeeper Su took the burden, opened it, counted the purse inside, and chatted with Yang.

Aunt Yang, it's been a long time since I came here, so I miss you.

Oh, I'm getting old, my eyes are useless, and my work is getting slower and slower. Fortunately, you don't dislike my slow work and don't rush me. Yang replied with a smile.

It can be seen that Mr. Yang has a very good relationship with this shopkeeper Su, and he speaks very casually, not at all restrained.

Look at what you said, how many years we have been in love. Shopkeeper Su finished counting the purse, and then settled the account for Mrs. Yang. Aunt Yang, there are forty purses in total, 4 cents each, and 160 cents.

Shopkeeper Su bent over and took out two strings of copper coins from the drawer, counted them, and prepared to hand them to Mrs. Yang.

You don't need to give me the money yet, I'm going to buy some fabrics from you. By the way, I have something else to ask you to help with... Mr. Yang didn't take the coins, but turned around and pulled Lin Qingwan over.

Wan'er, come and let me introduce you - this is the shopkeeper Su, the owner of Jinxiufang.

Hello, Boss Su. Lin Qingwan smiled and gave Boss Su a slight blessing.

This is my niece Qingwan. I want to pick up some chores from you and go home to do it. Can you see it? Mrs. Yang added a few words, fearing that Shopkeeper Su would be worried. My niece's craftsmanship is really good, and I promise you.

Shopkeeper Su said with a smile, Look at what you said, what kind of relationship do we have? I have nothing to worry about about the person you introduced.

After speaking, she turned her head and asked Lin Qingwan, I don't know what kind of work Miss Wan'er wants to do?

Lin Qingwan looked at Yang with a bit of embarrassment. She doesn't know the situation now, how should she pick up the job?

Seeing Lin Qingwan's embarrassed look, Manager Su suddenly realized and clapped his hands.

Look what I'm saying is unclear! I'm really sorry. Shopkeeper Su slowly introduced Lin Qingwan, I'd better introduce you, my shop is small, and there are only a few chores I can bring back to do. Like, tie a net, a penny a piece, complex patterns ranging from 2 to 3 penny, but it depends on the work. Then there is the purse, a kind of blank purse made by Aunt Yang without embroidery, our embroidery workshop provides fabrics And embroidery thread, you only need to make a purse, this one is four cents a piece. There is another kind of embroidery done together, this one is 12 cents a piece, if the embroidery is good, the price will be increased depending on the work.”

After the introduction, the shopkeeper Su thought for a while, and then said, Of course, we also accept some large pieces of embroidery here, but we can negotiate the price only after seeing the items.
