Comprehensive film: the sweet daily life of urban drama

Chen An went back to his room, took his phone and camera, and went out. As soon as he reached the entrance of the restaurant, he saw Nana walking to the side with a plate in her hand. He called out to her, "Nana."

Hearing the voice, Nana turned her head and asked, "Chen An, what are you doing?"

"I want to ask if there is a map of the village, otherwise I will always get lost by myself."

"This is true. We have a brochure here. I forgot to bring it to you yesterday. Wait for me. I'll go deliver something and come back to get it for you."

Chen An joked, "Does the restaurant also provide a beautiful lady to deliver meals?"

Nana smiled and said, "No, my brother is learning wood carving next door. I made this, so I just wanted to send it over to him to try."

"Do you want to give it a try?"

Chen An waved his hand and said, "Forget it. I have a big appetite and this is not enough for me. I'd better give it to your brother first."

"Chen An, are you interested in wood carving?" Nana asked after hesitating.

"Oh, I heard that there seem to be many woodcarving masters here, but I have never seen one in person."

"Come on, we are so close. I'll take you to see Master Xie. He is a state-level intangible cultural heritage inheritor. His craftsmanship is excellent."

"That's something you'll have to see for yourself."

The two of them chatted and laughed until they reached the next yard. As soon as they entered the door, they heard a loud scolding from inside: "You are so impatient, you can't sit still, you just look at your phone all day long..."

Nana looked at the girl who was cleaning the yard and asked, "Yingzi, what's going on? Why is Master Xie so angry?"

Yingzi explained, "His master has been scolding him for a long time, thinking that he is not doing his job properly."

Nana turned her head and looked at Chen An and explained, "Master Xie has taught many apprentices, all of whom are very capable. It is well-known that strict teachers produce outstanding students. I will let Xia Xia introduce them to you later to see if there is anyone you like."

Chen An nodded and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, this is normal. My master is much stricter than this."

"Your master?" Nana looked at Chen An curiously.

Chen An smiled and pointed to the sky. Nana immediately understood what Chen An meant, "I'm sorry, that..."

"Why are you embarrassed? It's just a way to enjoy life in advance. It's no big deal..."

After hearing what Chen An said, Nana was a little surprised. This idea was quite novel.

Chen An noticed that the little girl had been secretly looking at him, so he took the initiative to ask, "Your name is Yingzi, right? Can you help me introduce the things in the yard?"

It was the first time that Yingzi had seen such a handsome guy. The girls here were very bold. Given the local customs, it was normal to rob men. So she was not shy at all. Instead, she took Chen An and introduced him to him openly.

"Yingzi, this is the new tenant in our courtyard. Please help introduce him to her." Nana quickly reminded Chen An when she saw that he was interested in this. After all, the situation in the wood carving workshop was not good, so this could be considered as helping others.

The little girl introduced Chen An carefully, and Chen An couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the local environment and climate determine the local people. The girls here are generally not tall, but each of them is petite and exquisite, and most importantly, they are all very good-looking. He couldn't help but think of those so-called beautiful anchors in later generations, and couldn't help but laugh. If the girls here were to be anchors, they would beat those people in terms of appearance and talent.

Suddenly my eyes lit up. It seemed like a good idea. I decided to think about it carefully.

He suppressed his thoughts and quickly looked at a beautifully carved chair.

"Brother Chen, this is a masterpiece carved by Master Xie himself. This is made of..."

Chen An was listening to the introduction with great interest. After all, the girl spoke softly and pleasantly. He felt it carefully with his hands, wondering whether he could consider buying it. At that moment, the atmosphere between the master and the apprentice in the room became very tense.

Xie Xiaoxia had been feeling unsatisfied recently and wanted to venture out into the world. Now her master was taking advantage of the situation and taking it out on her. The resentment in her heart had accumulated to a certain extent and she exploded. "Well, in that case, I'll be frank. The root sculpture you carved has been placed here since two years ago. It's almost enough to protect the house. And the chairs in the yard, can everyone touch them? They're covered with patina and haven't been sold yet."

Chen An touched the armrest and was about to sit down to try the feeling of the chair, but he was made awkward by these words. He didn't know whether to sit down or not.

Yingzi looked a little embarrassed when she heard this and looked at Chen An with some apology.

"It's okay, let's look at something else."

Nana looked at Chen An and found it funny, but she also felt that what Xia Xia said was a bit too much. She thought that she would talk to him in detail later, and at the same time she kept an eye on the situation between the master and the apprentice.

Facing the facts, Master Xie was obviously a little lacking in confidence, "There are many people who come to see us, as long as our skills are good."

"It's useless. We are all here to take pictures. At most, we can take something away. A small ornament or bracelet would be great."

"Master, you carve woodcarvings normally, and other masters in the village also send their carvings to you. You can't sell all these things. If you ask me, you shouldn't open this woodcarving workshop. It's the same if you sell them online, and you can save so much money."

As soon as these words were spoken, his face was filled with anger. It was equivalent to denying a person's decades of hard work with just one sentence. Xie Heshun immediately exploded and looked around for someone he could use to teach his apprentice a lesson.

Seeing that Master Xie was about to take action, Nana didn't care about anything else and quickly called out, "Xia Xia."

Master Xie had his hands raised, but when he heard Nana's voice, he put them down awkwardly and looked back at Nana, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, family disgrace should not be made public. Everyone knew that his wood carving workshop was not doing well, but he felt ashamed that his apprentice said this to him in front of her.

Nana looked at Master Xie, who had an awkward and lonely expression on his face. She suddenly felt a little guilty. Since ancient times, it has been the duty of a master to teach his apprentices. It was inappropriate for her to interrupt. In order to ease the embarrassment, she had to explain, "Sister Xiaochun, let me bring some food over."

Master Xie nodded, threw away the gavel and walked outside. He knew the difficulties of the wood carving workshop, but as an old craftsman, he always had his own persistence and wanted to pass on the craft.

However, his son chose machine carving, and his apprentices left one by one, which made him very depressed and aggrieved. Xie Xiaoxia was an apprentice he was very optimistic about. She was an honest and decent person. Although she was a little playful, as long as he trained her carefully, she would definitely inherit his mantle in the future. The results now seem like a joke.

Nana is a kind-hearted person. She has realized some problems now, but she doesn't know what to do. Suddenly her eyes light up when she sees Chen An, and she quickly gives him a look and mouths a reminder.

Chen An found Nana's actions a little funny, but he still nodded and agreed.
