Reborn Craftsman

"This..." Zhu Meiling was in a dilemma when she heard the words.

Zhu Xiuqing was also very embarrassed. If she knew that she would encounter such a situation, she would not come here to do things, but this idea was quickly rejected. Her family is very poor, and it is almost impossible to get rid of it recently. I'm afraid I'll starve to death.

Liu Xing looked at Zhu Xiuqing's appearance and shook his head: "Sister, I'm not a stingy person. Your parents are long gone, and your younger sister should live in your uncle's house. What can you do when you go back? Why don't you just live in this big shed and wait?" How about I take you back after you've finished your work? Or...you can use the money you earn to buy a second-hand bicycle and ride it back. "

"That's a good idea!" Zhu Meiling nodded in agreement.

"But bicycles are very expensive. How long will it take me to afford them?" Zhu Xiuqing was moved by Liu Xing's words, but still worried.

"It's said to be a second-hand bicycle, at most ten or twenty yuan!" Liu Xing replied with a faint smile, seeing that Zhu Xiuqing didn't say anything more, he turned around and walked towards Pomiji.

There is no way, the family members only know how to make simple bamboo products, and they definitely don't know how to make this basket, so the samples of the basket that Boss Xue of the grocery store needs must be made by himself.

The first step in making bamboo baskets is to break bamboo strips.

With the opportunity to destroy the contempt, it will save a lot of things.

Seeing Liu Xing busy beside the broken machine, Zhu Xiuqing walked aside curiously: "Do you need help?"

"No need, you have been busy all day, go to rest!" Liu Xing replied without raising his head: "Out of the shed, there is a grocery store on the right to watch TV. My younger brother and sister are also there. You can Go there to kill time."

"Watching TV?" Zhu Xiuqing shook her head in a daze: "I won't go, I don't understand that thing, I'd better go weave a few dustpans!"

With that said, Zhu Xiuqing really went to weave the dustpan.

Liu Xing looked at Zhu Xiuqing who was squatting on the small bench, and felt a little touched for a moment. Logically, such a good employee would not be happy enough to do things for him, but for some reason, he always felt a little weird.

If you really use words to describe it, it is loneliness.

This elder sister named Zhu Xiuqing from her natal family is really lonely, she can't even read TV, she is so introverted and autistic to say such a thing!

"Sister!" Thinking of this, Liu Xing suddenly changed his mind, and he shouted towards where Zhu Xiuqing was, "Can you weave baskets?"

"Baskets? The baskets for picking rice?" Zhu Xiuqing looked back at Liu Xing and asked subconsciously.

"En!" Liu Xing nodded.

"Yes!" Zhu Xiuqing hesitated and replied.

"Then come and help!" Liu Xing lowered his head and began to get busy.

If Zhu Xiuqing refused to come, then his previous words should be ignored.

After a while, he heard footsteps and Zhu Xiuqing's timid voice: "Liu Xing, didn't you say you don't need my help?"

"That's for those who don't know how to make baskets, and you will be excluded!" Liu Xing replied.

"Oh!" Zhu Xiuqing smiled happily. It was really not easy for her to get Liu Xing's approval.

Seeing that Liu Xing was weaving the frame of the basket with a few pieces of stripped bamboo, he immediately stepped forward to help.

"How many years have you known the craftsmanship of a bamboo craftsman?" Liu Xing asked casually.

At the same time, his hands were nimbly weaving the thin strips on the frame. Due to the high speed, Zhu Xiuqing's eyes were wide open, so that he forgot to answer Liu Xing's question.

Liu Xing shook his head, and didn't ask any more questions at the moment.

Continue to weave the baskets.

The handwork of baskets is very complicated.

Even if there is a broken machine, coupled with his skilled craftsmanship, it will take at least one or two hours to weave a pair.

So he didn't want to waste time, and he had to make the big wooden barrel for the soup after dinner!

Zhu Xiuqing came to her senses at this moment, and she flicked her hair on her forehead in embarrassment: "When I was five years old, I learned the craft of a bamboo strip maker from my parents, and it has been more than ten years now! Basically Like dustpans, bamboo baskets, fish baskets and other bamboo products, there is nothing I can’t do.”

"By the way! Your grandfather's craft is still learned from my grandfather!" Zhu Xiuqing added with a sweet smile.

The implication is that Liu Xing's bamboo craftsmanship is learned from your grandfather, so don't underestimate her.

Chapter 044 Childhood Memories

"In that case, don't I want to call you senior sister?" Liu Xing asked jokingly, not knowing the meaning of Zhu Xiuqing's words.

"Don't say that, your craftsmanship is much better than mine and my grandfather's. I don't want to climb high, what you said just now was just a joke!" Zhu Xiuqing looked serious: "Take the sample of the dustpan you wove as an example. Without decades of hard work, it would be impossible to achieve that kind of craftsmanship."

"You're too much!" Liu Xing laughed. He only found out after chatting with Zhu Xiuqing that Zhu Xiuqing, the elder sister from her natal family, is a real expert in bamboo craftsman. If we continue talking, I'm afraid that he himself was born again and traveled through time. identities will be revealed.

After wiping the sweat off his forehead with his hand, he began to weave the baskets seriously. There was no way, although he was not in a good mood to make baskets now, but respecting each other line by line, the due caution of the bamboo craftsman's craftsmanship could not be lost.

If it is lost, his craftsmanship should regress.

Zhu Xiuqing, who was helping at the side, saw that the shape of the basket, which originally had only one frame, was quickly formed under Liu Xing's skillful hands, and there was no flaw between the bamboo strips, and between the bamboo strips and the bamboo frame, just like a perfect work of art Generally, one can't help but be surprised at the moment.

Because she knew that if it was herself, she would not be able to do this at all.

When Grandpa weaved the baskets, although the technique was very similar, it was not as sharp, as if the baskets were natural in Liu Xing's hands.

Grandpa once said that this kind of craftsmanship is only available to master bamboo craftsmen.

But Liu Xing is only 14 years old now, so he has the craftsmanship of a master bamboo craftsman. Isn't this abnormal?

The only explanation is that Liu Xing is really a genius.

Zhu Xiuqing thought to herself.

Liu Xing didn't know what Zhu Xiuqing was thinking. After weaving the first basket, he said, "Sister, you can weave the other one. I have to go out and see my younger brothers and sisters."

"I can't!" Zhu Xiuqing even waved his hand: "I am ashamed of your craftsmanship. Unless I am remaking a pair of baskets, I won't weave another one if I am killed."

It is said that it is impossible for others to imitate the things made by one hand, but Zhu Xiuqing does not mean that in what she said now, but does not want others to see that the baskets she made are too far from Liu Xing's.

This is an insult to an artist, so she would rather offend Liu Xing than be insulted by others.

"Okay! Sister, you can make a pair of baskets and come out to have a look, maybe it can save me a lot of trouble!" Liu Xing, who knew what Zhu Xiuqing was thinking, smiled lightly. After checking the belt of the broken machine, he got up and walked out of the shed.

When I came back, it was already more than an hour later.

Liu Xing brought his younger brother Liu Hang and younger sister Peanut to the greenhouse.

There is no way, these two guys have regarded the market as their home since they came to the market, and they have never been idle. It will be time for dinner soon. If they don't call back, That would be disgusting.

In fact, some of the early ones had already been eaten. Liu Xing even found a half-eaten braised pig's trotter in Xiao Huasheng's hands, which must have been given to Xiao Huasheng by the boss he knew.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xing covered his head and didn't know what to say for a while.

This is not going to work, maybe the boss who feeds the little peanut stewed pig's trotters doesn't care about it at all, but after a long time, it is inevitable that he will bear some bad reputation.
