Chen Shu is not the only one whose aesthetic sense has gone astray.
Gu An'an and Man Niang played their cards very well. As girls who are used to seeing beautiful jewelry, they have a high aesthetic threshold.
Making beautiful dolls to win their favor is no easy task.
If you can go for the ugly-cute look, that's the way to go.
Even Feng Yue, who came to play with Chen Shu every day, found the little yellow chick incredibly cute and kept saying, "Its eyes reveal a hint of indifference, a touch of coldness, a dash of sarcasm, and a dash of nonchalance. It's just too adorable."
Looking at her best friend who was engrossed in talking to the little yellow chick, Chen Shu suddenly felt that she wasn't doing anything wrong.
See, everyone likes it, right?
It's definitely not a problem with my own aesthetic sense.
Chen Shu thought for a moment, then secretly asked, "Yue'er, do you hug it when you sleep at night?"
"How could you do this? What if you hurt Lele? By the way, Shuer, I want to find Lele another younger brother or sister. Is your cousin still around? I want to ask her for another one."
Chen Shu felt that this person was even more insane than herself.
It's just a plush toy, how did it turn into raising a child, and even having a younger brother or sister?
"Qianqian has already returned to Anping County."
"Then let's go to Anping County too." Feng Yue couldn't wait to find Zhao Qianqian, even if it was just to find out the whereabouts of the owner who made the doll.
She did try to make the doll, but after using all kinds of fabrics, she found that she couldn't make it well.
Neither of them is as cute as Lele.
Chen Shu never expected that Feng Yue, who was usually aloof, would be even more terrifying than herself when she went crazy.
She coughed lightly. "Actually, you know the person who made this doll. She's the owner of that snack shop."
Which one?
Chen Shu added, "That Gu's Food Shop, the one in Anping County."
"It's her!" Feng Yue exclaimed in surprise, but then she felt that there was nothing wrong with it. "She is so skillful. Not only is her cooking delicious, but the little things she makes are also so cute. Let's go find her."
Who are you looking for?
Madam Xie's arrival made Feng Yue restrain herself a little, but she still told the truth about her plans.
In the past few days, Madam Xie had overheard some of her close friends complaining to her that instead of doing her needlework properly, her daughter was busy sewing dolls, and because the dolls weren't very pretty, she even cried because she looked so ugly.
Upon hearing Feng Yue's words, Madam Xie stretched out her hand, "Let me see it."
Chen Shu handed over a giant panda the size of her palm.
Madam Xie looked her over carefully. "It's nothing special. You can go to Anping County if you want, but be careful. I'll have your father send a few people with you."
That wouldn't be interesting, but Chen Shu naturally wouldn't go against her mother's wishes. "Then I'll trouble you, Mother."
Feng Yue wished she could sprout wings and fly over immediately, but she still patiently expressed her gratitude.
Madam Xie didn't say much to the two girls; she went to the front yard to look for her husband.
Prefect Chen had nothing to do today and was reading in his study when he saw his wife arrive. He quickly invited her to sit down, asking, "What brings you here, Madam?"
"What, is it that the Prefect is keeping a mistress in his study, and I am not allowed to come?"
How could Prefect Chen be a match for his wife? He repeatedly begged for mercy, "I misspoke, oh, what is this?"
Seeing the little thing in Madam Xie's hand, Chen Fang subconsciously reached for it, "It does have a certain charming and cute quality."
Adorably charming.
This made Madam Xie hesitate slightly. "This is a little trinket made by Madam Gu from Anping County. I heard it's quite popular in our Anzhou Prefecture recently."
"That Gu family lady who helped take care of Chen Bei before? She's quite skillful."
These words made Madam Xie a little jealous. "Yes, but she's very skillful and good-looking too."
Prefect Chen immediately sensed the sourness in her voice. "Madam, you misunderstand. I don't know that Gu family lady." Prefect Chen then went over to massage his wife's shoulders. "Besides, no matter how skillful she is, she can't compare to the place in my heart."
All Madam Xie wanted was this one sentence: "They do have some ingenious skills, but they are just trinkets and can't be presented in a proper manner."
Prefect Chen nodded repeatedly, "Madam is right." His eyes fell on the small panda, "Madam, what brings you here?"
"Shu'er likes this little thing and says she wants to go to Anping County with Fengyue. I want Master to send a few guards to her. She's grown up and needs someone to protect her, so she won't have to deal with any villains she encounters herself."
“What you say is true, Madam. I will immediately send a few people to Shu’er.”
Madam Xie stayed with her husband while he read for a while before leaving.
When they left, they took the giant panda with them. Governor Chen was quite annoyed. Although he didn't show it on his face, he still gave his personal guards a few instructions when he called them over: "Find out what's going on with that doll, and bring back a few of them later."
The guard was a little confused. "Does Your Excellency also like that little yellow chick?"
Prefect Chen was taken aback. "What little yellow chicks? There are little yellow chicks? What are those?"
The guard quickly explained, "Miss has some; they're quite cute. These past few days, Miss has been drawing pictures of that little yellow chick."
She thought the paintings weren't good enough, and some of them were circulated by the maids. The guards responsible for protecting the prefectural government intercepted them, but they found them amusing, so she added her own comment.
"Is that so? Then it seems I should go and explain to Shu'er myself."
While we're at it, let's see what that little yellow chick looks like.
