"House cat? But what I saw was clearly a living person! She was also a very temperamental middle-aged woman." Qin Yi was surprised, and her face became even uglier.

On the contrary, Liu Ding reacted quickly, and quickly asked Yuan Mu, "Then why did it come to find Qin Yi? Will it hurt her?"

Yuan Mu picked up the handkerchief and looked at it, "How did you meet it?"

"It's a long story." Qin Yi sorted out her thoughts before explaining to Yuan Mu in detail.

"Haven't I been preparing the high-end dresses for the new season? I also got the inspiration from you. I want to make a set of high-end dresses with elements of Hanfu and Chinese style."

"The fabrics are very demanding." Qin Yi simply showed Yuan Mu her design drawings.

At first glance, it seems that there is nothing special, but when you see the skirt in the lower part of the concept map, it makes your eyes shine.

A large area of ​​mountains and rivers surrounds the skirt.It is not the magnificent atmosphere of mountains and rivers, nor the exquisiteness of small bridges and flowing water, but the simplicity of the mean.

Beautiful, but unattractive.Fairy, but not alienated.

"It's beautiful."

"Really!" Qin Yi was also very proud of Yuan Mu's praise, but she quickly returned to the topic, "So I need to find an embroiderer to cooperate."

"The four famous shows, in terms of fidelity, Su embroidery is the best. And for my skirt, I need such a skilled embroiderer."

"But I also have special requirements. I hope this embroiderer is a skilled ancient embroiderer."

"Of course, the ancient method has many shortcomings compared to the modern improvement, but this kind of deficiency just happens to bring out the ancient charm I want."

"It's not perfect but just right, this is the real perfection."

"So I contacted my friends over there, hoping to find someone suitable."

"In the end, I fell in love with the owner of this handkerchief. It's just that this person only gave me the handkerchief a week ago, but he didn't give me his contact information. I was afraid that something would happen, so I asked Liu Ding to help me find someone."

"I didn't expect it to have passed away."

"Then what are your plans now?" Yuan Mu asked Qin Yi.

Qin Yi thought for a while, "I think, I should go and have a look."

"At the very least, give her the handkerchief back."

Liu Ding said quickly, "I'll go too."

Yuan Mu stared at the handkerchief again, "Then I'll go too!"

Qin Yi unexpectedly has a character of going away at any time, and it just so happens that there is still a plane ticket for today, and Yuan Mu and Liu Ding also booked the tickets together.

Before leaving, Qin Yi was still worried about the little ones at home, "Can we leave them?"

Yuan Mu touched Xiao Mujin's head, and then told Hua Piao a few words, "It's okay, someone will go home tonight."

After speaking, Yuan Mu sent another message, and then went out with the two of them.

In Liu Ding's memory, Yuan Mu seldom used electrical appliances such as mobile phones, so he asked curiously, "Who is it for?"

Yuan Mu, "Give it to Xie Zhi, tell him to get off work early and go home to take care of the kids."

Liu Ding felt inexplicably as if he had been fed a mouthful of invisible dog food.

The air ticket is in the afternoon, and there is a distance from Yuanmu to the provincial capital.Fortunately, the three still caught up with the plane.

Four hours later, the plane arrived at its destination, and the car that Qin Yi had arranged to pick him up also arrived.

The three got into the car and rushed to their destination immediately.

Different from Yuanmu, as the origin of Suzhou embroidery, the climate and style of Suzhou Province are more inclined to literary elegance.

The river that runs through the entire city, although it is not surrounded by mountains and rivers in ancient times, still retains the charm of flowing water.

Yuan Mu looked around curiously. The driver was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to introduce the special features of Suzhou Province to them.

"Then you know that there is a very famous Su embroidery master here, his surname should be Zhao."

"Zhao? There is no such person!" The driver also seemed to be stunned by the question, "We have never heard of such a master. Maybe he is good at embroidery, but he is not famous?"

When Qin Yi thought about it, the same thing happened.Now is the age of technology, many skills can be done by machines.Who would spend more than ten years, or even decades, to specialize in a skill that may not be able to survive on it.

Especially like Suzhou Embroidery, if you want to reach the top, you need not only practice and ponder day and night, but more importantly, talent.

During the period of war, Su embroidery entered a downturn, and many traditional embroidery methods were gradually lost.It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that people's lives were stable that they gradually regained it.

But even so, there are still many exquisite techniques from ancient times that have completely disappeared.Many Suzhou embroidery masters can only rely on a past embroidery sample to slowly ponder the mystery.

Therefore, as a Suzhou embroidery master, if he wants to get out of the small circle and enter the public eye, he must have some earth-shattering news.

Unless it is like the kind of art master recognized by the world, a pair of embroidery is sold for millions, otherwise it is really difficult to be recognized by the world.

Thinking of this, Qin Yi's heart was also a little blocked.

For the rest of the journey, no one spoke much.After about half an hour, Yuan Mu and his party finally arrived at their destination.The address given to them by the husband of the Suzhou embroidery master.

"This is it!" Liu Ding checked the address, "It should be this building."

But the house number was not written, so they didn't know which house to knock on.

Coincidentally, the phone on Qin Yi's side still couldn't get through, so the three of them could only wait downstairs for a while.

At this moment, the corridor door opened, and a girl walked out with a stack of boxes.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I want to ask you about that. Do you know that there is a master of Suzhou embroidery living here, whose surname is Zhao?"

The girl obviously knew each other, but her tone was very indifferent, "What are you looking for from her?"

"That's right, I received her embroidery before, so I thought..."

However, before Qin Yi finished speaking, the girl interrupted abruptly, "Are you also reporters?"

"what?"

"Why are you pretending to be innocent? Didn't you just send a colleague here the day before yesterday, and then write a report that stepped on the high and low?"

"What report?"

"Stop pretending! I've seen her works. What works does she have? She doesn't even have the most basic name in Suzhou embroidery circles! She can embroider a silk scarf for 200 yuan if she picks up work outside."

"But do you know how long it takes to embroider this silk scarf? It's been embroidered for two full weeks! Then there will be customers who have a lot of things to say, oh, why is it not double-sided embroidery! This embroidery work is too bad, and then return payment!"

"Even so, she has persisted, and she really feels that she is not good at embroidery, so she spends days and nights pondering and polishing her skills."

"But what's even worse is that she has no talent yet. She has been embroidering for more than 30 years and can only be an ordinary embroiderer."

"In the end until death! No one has recognized it."

"Come on! Tragic enough! Go back and write the report when you hear what you want to hear!"

"Don't bother us again!" The series of words contained a lot of information, and the girl's sudden hysteria also shocked Qin Yi and Liu Ding.For a long while I didn't know how to answer.

But Yuan Mu lowered his head and picked up the newspaper that fell out of the box she was holding and glanced at it.

In a very unremarkable block of tofu in the middle, a market story about Xiuniang was reported in very casual language.

"As we all know, Su embroidery is a very advanced skill. Many embroiderers have never been able to touch the essence in their entire lives. Today, the author will reveal the real life of a low-level embroiderer for everyone."

At first glance, it seems to be calling for everyone to care about Xiu Niang's life, but after careful taste, these words are full of subtle sarcasm.

Just like the "lower layer", every stroke is contempt from above.

Yuan Mu frowned, but the girl reached out and snatched the newspaper from his hand.Throw it into the trash can with red eyes.

Then, she bypassed the three of Yuan Mu and wanted to enter the building.

Yuan Mu called out, "Are you a relative of that master? Or, are you her daughter?"

"..." The girl stared at Yuan Mu viciously, "What are you going to do? If you keep pestering me, I'm going to call the police!"

Yuan Mu, "Don't get me wrong, we are not reporters, and we have no malicious intentions. We have contacted your father before coming here. We are returning things."

"What?" The girl obviously didn't know about Liu Ding's search for someone online.

Seeing this, Qin Yi quickly took out the handkerchief she had put away and handed it to the girl.

"This is it."

When the girl saw it, she immediately got angry, "This...how did you have this handkerchief in your hand? Didn't you come to my house to interrogate me last time and stole my mother's belongings?"

"Believe it or not, I will call the police!"

"No, it's not like that." Qin Yi finally blurted out the truth in desperation, "This handkerchief was given to me by your mother."

"By your own hands? My mother is dead!" The girl stared at Qin Yi with a half-smile, as if to say, do you think I'm a fool?

"Don't worry." Qin Yi simply showed her the ticket, "I booked the ticket here today. I have been staying in a farmyard in the Beast Temple for the past two months. This is the little boss of the farmyard, and this is My boyfriend Liu Ding."

"He is the host of the platform. You can check it. He has been with me for the past two months. The live broadcasts are all in the Temple of the Beast. We have never left."

"..." The girl looked at the three vigilantly. When she saw Liu Ding, she did feel that this person looked familiar.According to Qin Yi, she checked it and it was indeed the case.

Liu Ding's live broadcast for the past two months has been in the provincial capital, and it has never stopped.

Seeing that she believed her, Qin Yi hurriedly added, "If you still think something is wrong, we can call the police and go to the police station to retrieve my recent travel records."

"Trust me, I really mean no harm."

Qin Yi spoke sincerely, and the girl finally believed her words, but she was still very wary.

"Then what exactly are you here for?"

"It's mainly to return this handkerchief. Besides, if your mother is still alive, I originally wanted to discuss a cooperation with her."

"What cooperation?"

"I'm a high-end dress designer. My latest season's design includes Suzhou embroidery elements. I would like to ask your mother to embroider a skirt pattern for me."

"I had contacted a lot of Suzhou embroidery masters before, but none of them were suitable for my style. Until I ran into your mother at the foot of the mountain, she gave me this handkerchief. I think I have found the most suitable embroiderer for me."

"As a result, I didn't know that your mother had been..."

"How do you prove it?"

"what?"

"How do you prove your identity?"

The girl's questioning was a bit rude, but Qin Yi still took out her business card and handed it to her in a good temper.

The girl took it, and looked up the name of Qin Yi's studio on the Internet with her mobile phone shaking her hand, it should be for verification.

"It's true." She murmured, but tears streamed down her eyes instantly.

"It's too late." She squeezed the handkerchief in her hand and said to Qin Yi, "You came too late..."
