"No problem." Jin Na wiped her hands on her body, then carefully pulled the fabric on the fra open.
"Xu, co and look, this embroidery is so well done, it’s genuine embroidery. I’ve seen sothing like this in stores, and I wanted to buy one for our ho, but they are just too expensive. Moreover, they weren’t as nicely embroidered as this one, although there were so paper paintings, they just don’t seem classy and are not pretty."
With such a large fra, one ter by two ters, made of a golden wooden fra and also covered with a layer of glass, it already looked pretty high-end. Moreover, with that painting inside, it definitely made the price seem reasonable.
Jin Na especially loved the wedding dress figure on it, which was just like the wedding photos she had with Commander Xu. Commander Xu was wearing his military uniform and she was in a white wedding dress, exuding charm and tenderness. She had never been so beautiful in her life, and Commander Xu had also captured the most beautiful mont of his lover’s life. The scene had already been captured in photos, but the original recording was far less marvelous than this piece of embroidery.
They were different, entirely different, one was a high-tech product, and the other carried the ancient charm of five thousand years.
And Jin Na obviously loved this piece, and with such a large fra hanging on the wall, it made her feel sowhat superior.
"Xu, shall we hang this here?"
Jin Na pulled on Commander Xu’s sleeve and pointed to the wall opposite her, "It just so happens to be empty, and I was just worrying about what to hang there."
"Alright," Commander Xu agreed, also helplessly enamored by the embroidered picture. Although he did not show it openly, he truly loved it deep down. It was simply too beautiful, the grace and grandeur that a photograph could not provide.
"What else is this?" Jin Na rembered that they had also brought a bag, and hurriedly ran to the table, opened the bag, and instantly, a piece of red cotton cloth made her truly comfortable. Red symbolizes happiness, and they needed more of that for their marriage, didn’t they?
It turned out to be a set of beddings.
She took out one piece, and as soon as she did, she couldn’t help but hug it tightly.
"I want to try this."
She happily told Commander Xu and ran inside to strip off the four-piece set on the bed and replace it with the new one. The bright red color was very proper, and the embroidered cartoons on it were cute and exquisite. This was exactly what she had wanted, and she had been worrying about not having bought her favorite set of bedding, because either the colors were not right or the designs were not to her liking, or they were too expensive and she could not bear to spend the money. This was truly a godsend; she loved it.
And there were also a few pillow-like items. She would make so pillows with cotton tomorrow.
After making the bed, she pulled Commander Xu in to see how it looked, thinking that if his comrades saw this, they would definitely gain him a lot of face.
"This is embroidered, right? Or is it painted?" Commander Xu also felt sowhat incredulous. He really hadn’t seen any real embroidery before. Just when he was a child, a few elderly people in the village did so, but those were simple patterns, making cloth shoes for children. Such exquisite embroidery that didn’t even show the stitches really seed to be hand embroidered, and not that those kids tricked him into buying it at a high price, right?
"It is embroidered, no mistake," Jin Na gently touched the cartoon phoenix crown, "You can’t find these sold outside. That student’s little sister of yours really has skillful hands."
"Yes," Commander Xu continued, and honestly, he also had not heard about this before. He would find out so other day. If it really was bought at a high price, then he couldn’t let the student spend so much. He would find an opportunity to return the money. It seed like it was not going back now.
Jin Na liked it so much, he didn’t want to make her feel upset.
He took the opportunity to call Qin Xiangyang directly.
Qin Xiangyang was familiar to him; this kid ca right after junior high school. Although he was lacking in academic subjects, his physical and ntal qualities were excellent. He could say, they were special admissions students in their school. Previously, he didn’t like him much, thinking he got in through connections, but this kid really proved himself, achieving excellence in each subject and not falling behind in academics. He was quite a comndable young man.
"Xiang Yang, was it really your sister who embroidered this?" He still didn’t quite believe it, so he had to ask, "Xiang Yang, tell the truth, you didn’t buy this, did you?"
"Of course not," Qin Xiangyang straightened his back and stood at attention, "Report to the commander, I speak the truth, I am loyal to the party, the people, this uniform I am wearing, and the commander. I would certainly not engage in speculation, letting others secretly speak ill of the commander."
Hearing this, Commander Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief, he patted Qin Xiangyang’s shoulder, "Alright, I was just casually asking, don’t be nervous."
It really was nerve-wracking, Qin Xiangyang hehe smiled, now drenched in cold sweat. One should know, don’t look at the commander’s smiling face now, but during training, he was completely a devil, not showing the slightest bit of empathy.
It really made Qin Xiangyang unavoidably nervous and worried, his face had even paled from the scare.
"Tonight your sister-in-law has made a bit more food, co over and eat," Commander Xu patted his shoulder again, "Rember, just you alone, we have less food at ho, so other day your sister-in-law will buy more food, and we will invite all you little devils for a al."
"Alright," Qin Xiangyang agreed. After all, he had already been there once, it wouldn’t hurt this first ti, of course, Commander Xu also ntioned a third ti.
Jin Na specially prepared a table full of dishes to thank Qin Xiangyang for bringing such nice things to their ho. Now these two items had beco treasures to her. She planned to lay the red four-piece set only during her marriage, and not use it on regular days, just keeping it in the box, as it was too precious.
After Qin Xiangyang left, Jin Na pulled Commander Xu over.
"Xu, what do you think about Qin Xiangyang?"
"What do you an by what do I think?" Commander Xu poured himself a cup of tea and continued drinking leisurely.
"Like his character," Jin Na ca over and sat down beside Commander Xu, "What do you say, would Qin Xiangyang be suitable for Jin Juan?"
"Isn’t Jin Juan a bit too young?" Commander Xu raised his eyes, and by thinking with his knees, he knew what Jin Na was having in mind. It wasn’t just about finding a brother-in-law for herself.
