Zhao Jianguo suddenly woke up from his dream. No wonder Chi Yin asked him about the coordination between manual and machine work during the restoration. Most people would just patch up the holes, but she used a sewing machine and pink silk thread to highlight the three-dimensional effect of the rose.
He looked at the flower that seemed to come alive under the stitches, his face full of disbelief.
Even he, who has been a tailor for half his life, could not think of using this method.
Over the past few decades, whenever he encountered the need to repair chiffon fabrics, he followed the three steps he learned when he was young: 'spraying water to harden, curling the hem, and cutting with paper clips'. Today, Chi Yin not only broke the traditional rules but also completed them perfectly.
This, this is incredible!
Chi Yin moved the presser foot up and used scissors to cut the thread.
Then he took out the repaired chiffon shirt, spread it out, and held it up for everyone to evaluate.
Five seconds passed and not only did he not hear any comments, but everyone was staring at him blankly, which made Chi Yin a little nervous.
Is it possible that the work she repaired was very bad?
Or is it that the effect of this repair is not even good enough in the eyes of these students who passed the audition?
...
...
She nervously withdrew her hand, and at this moment Wu Fang beside her grabbed her wrist and said with surprise, "Oh my god, this is too good! Chi Yin, your brain is so flexible that it's like God is chasing you to feed you!"
Yang Tianlei joked, "I think Chi Yin's skills will surpass Master Zhao in less than half a month!"
Chi Yin was stunned. Does that mean the work she repaired was very successful?
She looked at Zhao Jianguo nervously, and Zhao Jianguo gave her an appreciative smile.
These words made the dozen or so women leaning against the wall with contempt on their faces startled, and the woman who formed the clique was also confused.
Zhao Jianguo's smile was almost reaching his ears. "It's fine if she surpasses me. Chi Yin is my apprentice. It's a great honor for me as her master if she can surpass me."
What? Disciple? Chi Yin was actually Zhao Jianguo's disciple!
No wonder Zhao Jianguo could accurately call out Chi Yin's name, gave his stool to Chi Yin when he saw that Chi Yin had no seat, and defended Liu Qingchun when she aggressively scolded Chi Yin for owing money and not paying it back. It turns out that they are master and apprentice!
Hearing these compliments, even the proud and reserved women could not help but come forward.
The rose sewn on breaks the overall dullness of the chiffon shirt.
The color combination of pink and bright red silk threads highlights the three-dimensional effect of the flowers.
The hooks on the edges of the holes were transformed into stamens by needle and thread, and the fabric did not feel rough even when repeatedly stroked with the thumb.
The women's expressions changed from suspicion to surprise, and then to admiration.
No wonder Zhao Jianguo accepted Chi Yin as his last disciple. With her solid basic skills, if she continued to learn from Zhao Jianguo, within half a month, people from all over the country would line up to have her make clothes for them.
Someone took the chiffon shirt from Chi Yin and handed it to its owner, "What do you think?"
The woman touched and looked at the chiffon shirt with her fingers, and the surprise in her eyes could not be hidden, but when she raised her eyes to look at Chi Yin, the expression on her face was fierce and sharp.
Chi Yin was shocked. What kind of look was that? Was he dissatisfied and asking for compensation?
Wu Fang was getting anxious, "Hey! Can you please say something?"
Deep down, the woman was unwilling to admit that Chi Yin was capable, but she also knew that everyone was convinced of Chi Yin, and asking for compensation at this time was very deliberate targeting.
The woman snorted, "That's all. I can do this kind of embroidery."
Wu Fang said, "Is it difficult to admit that others are excellent? It's obvious that none of us can master this skill."
Yang Tianlei continued, "How about making another hole in it and showing everyone your skills?"
Chi Yin nodded. "That's a good idea. I also want to see what techniques you used to repair it."
The woman's face instantly turned red. "I'm not stupid enough to mess with my clothes!"
Everyone knew that women would not dare to do it under pressure, so they all covered their mouths and laughed.
Chi Yin also laughed, she laughed happily, everyone was talking about how she got in through the back door, she thought that this rumor could only be broken after she had learned enough skills for a while, but she didn't expect that the rumor was shattered when she sewed a rose in the second class.
Those women didn't say anything but their eyes couldn't lie. Chi Yin knew that they had been won over by him.
Zhao Jianguo continued to take out the linen and encouraged everyone to get started.
Influenced by Chi Yin, everyone raised their hands enthusiastically to participate this time.
Chi Yin was not proud at all. Instead, he watched everyone's practice with a notebook and wrote down the skills worth learning.
It was ten o'clock, and the sewing machine class for the day was over. Chi Yin packed up her notebook and pen and prepared to go back.
A student came over and asked cautiously, "Comrade Chi Yin, can you lend me your notebook so I can copy it?"
Chi Yin smiled and nodded, "No problem, my home is at No. 1, Lane 6, District 4, you can come to my house anytime if you are free."
The students didn't expect that Chi Yin not only did not hide anything, but openly disclosed the key points of her notes, and their liking for her soared.
The women also gathered around, all hoping to borrow Chi Yin's notes to copy.
Chi Yin said, "I went to Nanyi City a few days ago and bought a sewing machine. I also have to spend time studying it, so I have been at home these days unless there is anything important. If you need to copy notes, just come to me."
Chi Yin smiled and added, "Actually, you think I'm talented, but I grew up with my grandmother. She's an experienced tailor. I learned a little bit from watching her. I hope you can give me more guidance in my studies in the future."
The women were stunned. They didn't expect Chi Yin to be so honest and humble. No wonder Zhao Jianguo accepted her as his last disciple.
Just based on Chi Yin's attitude, there was no contempt in their eyes when they looked at her, instead, there was only admiration.
Chi Yin and everyone walked out of the training classroom. On the way, everyone was talking to each other, expressing their own thoughts and experiences of the two classes today.
Chi Yin could tell that these women were skilled in sewing and mending, and had solid skills. She also secretly noted down the key points that they heard but she had overlooked.
When we arrived at the gate of the county party committee, everyone waved goodbye.
Wu Fang and Chi Yin's homes were in the same direction. Wu Fang held Chi Yin's arm, looked back at the women who were gradually going away, and asked her in a puzzled tone, "Those women were making up stories about you, why were you still so nice to them? Shouldn't you have just turned your face away and ignored them?"
Chi Yin sighed and said, "Have you ever heard of the saying 'leave a way for others so that we can meet again in the future'? I came to the training class to learn technology. If I were to argue with them about trivial matters all day long, I'm afraid I would have to spend half of my energy solving these problems."
Wu Fang thought about it for a few seconds and finally understood that they came to the training course to learn technology, and to study, one naturally needs to be calm and focused in order to learn something.
When the two of them walked to the section of road between the county party committee and the bus station, they heard someone shouting from behind, "Yin'er?"
Chi Yin was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly turned around and saw Zhou Lanhua appear behind him at some point.
The two were fifty meters away from each other. Chi Yin saw that Zhou Lanhua's eyes were red. She panicked for a moment and quickly went back to support her.
