After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life
Chapter 64 Embroidery
"Grandma, please give me your embroidery in exchange for grain. I'll give you grain in exchange for one medium-sized piece of fine embroidery. I'll give you eight pounds of coarse grain or four pounds of fine grain.
For smaller embroidery pieces, one piece can be exchanged for two kilograms of coarse grains or one kilogram of fine grains.
We also want large embroidery. The bigger the embroidery and the better the quality, the more you can exchange!
Grandma, if you don’t want food, I can also give you money. A medium-sized one is 80 cents per piece, and a small one is 20 cents per piece.
If you need large-scale embroidery, we can discuss the price later.
I only want fine embroidery, not rough ones, grandma, what do you think?"
"Girl, do you really want it? Besides, won't you be at a disadvantage? Embroidery is not valuable now!"
It’s not valuable now, but it will be valuable in the future!
Shen Xiaoxia smiled, "Really, I really want it! Grandma, you can also collect it from others. The more exquisite the better, the more food you can get in exchange for it.
I only trade with you. I won't ask about your dealings with others. Do you think this is okay?"
The old lady quickly responded, "Okay! Okay! I have a few old sisters, all of whom are excellent craftsmen. Thank you so much, my daughter!"
"Grandma, you're welcome. I won't suffer any loss!"
Knowing that the old lady wouldn't accept free food, Shen Xiaoxia said, "Grandma, do you have any finished embroidery at home? If so, it can be exchanged for today's food."
"Yes, yes, they are all embroidered before, I'll go get them!"
The old lady took out the embroidery and showed it to Shen Xiaoxia. Shen Xiaoxia picked up one and looked at it. Although she didn't know much about the embroidery craft, she could still tell the good from the bad!
The embroidery in her hand has delicate needlework and the lines are very smooth, without any sense of stagnation!
In modern times, it is definitely a work of art with superb craftsmanship.
"Grandma, I don't have much food with me today, so I'll just exchange three for it. You can keep the rest. I'll come back next time!"
The old lady wanted to give the rest to Shen Xiaoxia as well, "My daughter, please keep them all. If you leave them outside, all of them combined cannot be exchanged for the food you gave me today."
Shen Xiaoxia shook her head and refused with a smile, "No need, grandma, I'll just take three first, and I'll come back for the rest later!"
The old lady pushed and shoved Shen Xiaoxia for a long time, and finally let Shen Xiaoxia take two medium-sized ones and three small ones.
After Shen Xiaoxia accepted it, she kept thanking her, "My dear, thank you so much!"
Shen Xiaoxia handed the food to the old lady, and the old lady took it.
Shen Xiaoxia walked up to Xiaochu and touched his head. "Your name is Xiaochu, right?"
Xiaochu nodded, "Yes, auntie, my name is Xiaochu."
"Xiaochu, you are a little man now. You have to take good care of grandma, okay?"
Xiaochu looked at his grandmother and said "hmm" heavily, "I know, auntie, Xiaochu will take good care of grandma."
Shen Xiaoxia said goodbye to the old lady, "Grandma, I'm leaving now. I'll come back next time to exchange the embroidery!"
After Shen Xiaoxia said goodbye, she left and picked out five embroidery pieces to take with her.
After Shen Xiaoxia left, the old lady touched her grandson's head. Perhaps, they could have enough to eat in the future!
Although Shen Xiaoxia wanted to help, in the end, Shen Xiaoxia got the upper hand.
Shen Xiaoxia came out of her grandmother's house and walked for a distance. Then, she slipped into the space at a deserted corner, removed her makeup, and returned to her original appearance.
Next, she didn't have any particular destination, so she just strolled slowly on the street.
Probably because of the Lantern Festival, there are quite a lot of people on the streets today.
Shen Xiaoxia walked on the busy street, feeling their happiness.
When passing by the department store, Shen Xiaoxia was hesitating whether to go in for a look when she suddenly heard someone calling her, "Xia Xia?"
Shen Xiaoxia looked up and found that it was Han Zhuxin who was coming out of the department store. The two of them happened to meet.
It was a coincidence that Han Zhuxin first went to the rented house to deal with the supplies left by her cousin, and then hurried to the mall, gave Chen Tian several clothes she had made, and collected the money.
I had just taken off my makeup and was about to leave when I ran into Shen Xiaoxia!
Shen Xiaoxia waited for Han Zhuxin to come over and asked her, "Did you just finish shopping at the mall?"
Han Zhuxin: "Almost. Are you just about to go in for a stroll?"
Shen Xiaoxia nodded. "I was originally feeling bored, so I thought I'd go in and have a look to kill time. But it's okay if I don't, there's nothing I want to buy. What are you going to do next?"
Han Zhuxin had finished the most important thing she had done in the county town today, so she was free to do whatever she wanted next. "I don't have anything else to do, so you can go anywhere. If you want to go shopping, I can go in with you."
Shen Xiaoxia thought about it, took Han Zhuxin's arm, and walked with her inside. "Then will you accompany me in for a walk? I want to look at the bicycles!"
Hearing Shen Xiaoxia mention bicycles, Han Zhuxin's face was full of longing. "I want to buy one too! It's a pity, I have the money, but it's hard to get a ticket. If we go, we can only enjoy the sight."
Shen Xiaoxia tilted her head and looked at Han Zhuxin mysteriously, raising her eyebrows at her. Han Zhuxin stopped in disbelief, and stopped with Shen Xiaoxia as well, "Do you have a ticket?"
Han Zhuxin was excited for a moment and spoke a little loudly, attracting several people around to look in their direction.
Shen Xiaoxia quickly made a "hush" sound and asked her to pay attention to the occasion. Han Zhuxin also noticed that there were many people around, so she pulled Shen Xiaoxia out of the department store again.
Fortunately, Han Zhuxin only said that there were tickets, but did not say what kind of tickets they were. Sugar tickets, grain tickets, and cloth tickets were all tickets, so although her voice was a bit loud, it did not cause any sensation.
Han Zhuxin pulled Shen Xiaoxia over to confirm again, "Do you really have the ticket?"
Shen Xiaoxia nodded, "Really! And..."
Han Zhuxin was puzzled, "And what?"
Shen Xiaoxia stretched out two fingers, made a "yeah" gesture, and waved them in front of Han Zhuxin's eyes.
Han Zhuxin realized what Shen Xiaoxia wanted to express and exclaimed, "Isn't that what I think it means?"
Shen Xiaoxia nodded, "That's what you meant!"
Han Zhuxin excitedly hugged Shen Xiaoxia, knocking her off balance. "Sister, if there's anything you need me to do for you, I'll do it for you, even if it means death or injury!"
In fact, when Shen Xiaoxia said she had two, she was underestimating the number. She got at least seven or eight bicycle tickets from signing in.
If you sell a bicycle ticket individually, it would be worth at least 40 or 50 yuan, and you might not even be able to buy it.
Shen Xiaoxia pretended to think for a moment, then said, "How about this, sister? I think the clothes you make are very much in line with my aesthetic. How about using one of your bicycle tickets to pay for the labor costs of my new clothes for the next year?"
Han Zhuxin waved her hand and smiled boldly and domineeringly, "Sister, don't even mention the labor fee. I'll cover all your clothes for the rest of your life!"
Shen Xiaoxia immediately looked impressed, "Wow! Is this true? Are sisters really this domineering?"
Han Zhuxin nodded vigorously and pulled Shen Xiaoxia back inside. "Let's go! Let's go take a look! I've been envious for a long time!"
Although she was indeed planning to buy one, she was still a little hesitant when she was really dragged into buying one. "Really?"
Han Zhuxin made the final decision, "Buy it! Why not? If I didn't have a ticket, I would have bought it long ago."
Shen Xiaoxia wanted to persuade him again, "Isn't it too much of a stretch for us to do this all of a sudden?"
Han Zhuxin: "These people in our backyard have never been low-key, and now they are not short of something as high-profile as buying a bicycle!"
Shen Xiaoxia thought about it and felt that it was true, so she calmed down and bought it!
