After watching her grandson enter the room, Old Madam Chu turned around and closed the door, smiling and shaking her head.
"It's as wilted as an eggplant hit by frost. It must be because that girl Mianmian went home."
"I was worried that the Third Master wasn't feeling well, but it turns out he was feeling down because Mianmian went home."
Chen Ju secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Old Madam, I think the Third Master can't leave Mian Mian anytime soon. If he goes back to Yucheng, what will he do if he can't see Mian Mian for a year or two?"
The conversation between Chen Ju and Old Madam Chu was transmitted into Chu Yu's room.
Chu Yu leaned against the door, and when he heard the words "return to Yucheng", his originally smooth brows instantly wrinkled into a ball.
Grandma would only be recuperating in Xiushui Village for two or three years. After that, he would follow her back to Yucheng. However, his sister Mianmian had her own family and it was impossible for her to go back to Yucheng with him...
Thinking of this problem, Chu Yu felt a little upset.
Madam Chu said, "Mianmian is smart and clever. Xiaopingzi and his wife and Yongcheng care so much about her. She will definitely go to college in the future. Yucheng has several well-known universities, and Yucheng is close to Xiushui County. Mianmian may go to college in Yucheng in the future. Then, Yuer can meet her again."
Mrs. Chu’s words made Chu Yu’s eyes flash with light.
Even if I have to use kidnapping, I will find a way to get Sister Mianmian to Yucheng to study at university.
Chu Yu clenched his fists, determined to take Yun Mian to Yucheng to study at university.
When someone decided to take Yunmian to Yucheng to study at university, Yunmian was sitting under the melon trellis next door, holding a black pencil in her hand and drawing a clothing design with her little face serious.
"My dear granddaughter, what are you drawing? You are drawing so seriously."
Seeing Yunmian sitting under the melon vine rack and drawing for more than ten minutes, Mei Cuiping was worried that she was thirsty, so she brought a cup of cold tea and walked towards the melon vine rack.
Yun Mian replied without even looking up: "Grandma, I'm drawing clothes."
"Mianmian, is this what you just drew?"
Yunmian had a clothing design drawing next to her, which was a double-breasted women's trench coat for autumn.
Mei Cuiping came over with a cup of cold tea and immediately saw the pattern of a women's windbreaker that she had placed aside and pressed down with a small stone. The exquisite design and smooth lines startled Mei Cuiping so much that her hand holding the tea trembled and the tea almost spilled out.
Yunmian raised her head, looked at her stunned grandmother, and said with a smile, "Grandma, do you think my painting skills have improved again?"
"That's a lot of progress."
Mei Cuiping placed the tea on the stone table and gave her precious granddaughter a thumbs up without hesitation.
"It's much better than when I drew the furniture designs for Grandpa Jinbao."
Mei Cuiping looked at her little granddaughter happily, and the smile in her eyes grew wider the more she looked.
"It's different now that I'm in school and have a teacher to teach me."
Afraid of scaring her grandparents and dad, Yunmian did not show her true painting skills when she drew the blueprints for Jinbao Carpentry Shop and the puppet blueprints for Qiqi Puppet Factory. This time, she drew the clothing design blueprints to show to Mr. Chu Sanye. Chu Yu said that Mr. Chu Sanye was very strict and serious about his work. In order to make her clothing design drawings catch Mr. Chu Sanye's eyes, Yunmian had to show her true painting skills.
Yun Mian was worried about how to explain the rapid improvement in her painting skills, but when she heard her grandmother's words, she nodded in agreement.
“Well, the teachers are all very good.”
Mei Cuiping: "The teachers are good, and my granddaughter is smart. Mianmian, stop focusing on drawing and drink the water."
Yunmian picked up the cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp.
"Thank you, grandma."
Seeing that she was so thirsty that she was drinking like a cow, Mei Cuiping glared at her unhappily.
"Girl, you're just like your father at such a young age. When you're so focused on your work, you even forget to eat and drink."
Yun Mian: "Because I am my father's daughter."
Swish!
Yunmian carefully tore the second drawing from the sketchbook, held the pencil, and prepared to continue drawing.
Mei Cuiping glanced at the second drawing she had drawn.
"Mianmian, what you're drawing is a hat, right?"
The second drawing is a baseball cap.
After autumn, the temperature gets lower and lower, and the wind gets stronger and stronger. Some people can't stand the wind on their heads, so they like to wear hats when going out.
When Yunmian went shopping at Huaxiang Commercial City today, she found that there were hats for sale in the clothing area on the third floor of Chen Street in Huaxiang Commercial City, but the styles of those hats were not very good-looking, so Yunmian drew a baseball cap.
"Well, the brim of this hat looks like a duck's beak, so I named it a duckbill cap."
"Duckbill Cap, that's a nice name."
Mei Cuiping saw that she was still holding the pen and painting, and felt a little sorry for her little hands.
"Mianmian, why are you painting right after returning from the county town? And you painted so much? Go back to your room and rest for a while. Learning to paint is a long-term process. You can paint again tomorrow."
Yun Mian: "Grandma, these clothing design drawings need to be mailed to Yucheng for Brother Chu's third uncle to see."
"What?"
Mei Cuiping was shocked by her idea.
Because Yunmian had sold drawings before, Mei Cuiping immediately guessed what her granddaughter was thinking.
Shocked, she asked, "Mianmian, you're not planning to sell these drawings to Yu'er's uncle like you did before, are you?"
"I'm not selling artwork. I want to cooperate with Brother Chu's third uncle."
Yun Mian raised his head and looked at Mei Cuiping with a thoughtful expression.
"Brother Chu's third uncle owns two large clothing factories. If Brother Chu's third uncle takes a liking to my clothing design draft, I can discuss cooperation with Brother Chu's third uncle."
"Does your father know about this?"
Mei Cuiping was so shocked by her granddaughter's bold idea that she couldn't speak clearly.
At such a young age, he not only cooperates with Jinbao Carpentry Shop and sells drawings to Qiqi Puppet Factory, but now he even wants to leave Xiushui County and cooperate with Yuer's third uncle.
Yunmian held the pencil and drew carefully while answering her grandmother's questions.
"Dad is busy making braised meat right now. I'll discuss it with him in the evening when he's free."
Yunmian spent the entire afternoon drawing clothing designs.
By dinner time, she had created a total of eighteen drawings.
Having lived two lives, she has seen and heard a lot, and with her strong painting skills, drawing this kind of clothing illustration is not a difficult task for her.
"Dad, I want to tell you something."
Seeing that Yun Yongcheng had put down his bowl and chopsticks and was drinking a cup of tea, Yun Mian glanced at him and spoke slowly.
Yun Yongcheng looked at her cautious appearance and asked with a smile, "Did you get into trouble again?"
"no."
Yun Mian took a stack of drawings she had made and walked to Yun Yongcheng with her short legs.
"Dad, this is the clothing design I drew, take a look."
