Chapter 71
When they got back to the inn, it was already time for dinner, and many people were eating. Mother Lin and her friends were too busy to handle the meal, so a few people went to help. Lin Nanzhi rode his electric bike, took Lin Nanxun back, and cleaned up the room.
She mainly lived next door, and there wasn't much there. She just put away her four-piece suit, including her own quilt and pillow, and changed them all.
Wen Jiunian and Yu Ze collected the things together, with a clear division of labor.
After everything was packed up, it was sent to the guest room next door. After everything was put away one by one, Lin Nanzhi moved the bedding over and placed it on the bed here.
The master bedroom on the first floor is where Lin's mother lives. Lin Nanxuan and Lin Nanzhi both live on the second floor. Lin Ruoxuan lives in the master bedroom, and Lin Nanzhi lives in a bedroom on the second floor. Although it is neither the master bedroom nor the second bedroom, it is about the same size as the master bedroom.
Her room is near the far left, and is the first room at the staircase entrance. The door faces the living room on the second floor. There are two balconies in the room. The big balcony faces the backyard, and you can see the grape trellis at a glance. The small balcony is on the side, and you can touch the tassel flowers when you stand on it.
The location of Lin Nanye's room is the same as that of Lin Nanxun's room next door, there is no change, one lives on the first floor and the other lives on the second floor.
There are only three rooms left, one downstairs, two upstairs, a second bedroom and a guest room.
The second bedroom is next to Lin Nanxuan's room, and the guest room is next to Lin Nanye, at the very back, separated by only a wall from Lin Nanzhi's room next door.
Both of them were arranged on the second floor, Wen Jiunian lived next to Lin Nanye, and Yu Ze lived next to Lin Nanxuan.
As for how Mr. Lin arranges things, that is his business.
Lin's mother called to eat, and the two of them rode the electric bike back to the inn.
We all ate together, including the staff who lived in the accommodation, more than 20 people, plus a few people close to 30, so we didn't sit together, but each person took a plate, just like eating in the cafeteria.
The six people and Lin's mother sat together to eat. After just one bite, Yu Ze couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Well, Auntie, the food your chef cooks is so delicious!"
At this time, all the tourists had left, and the remaining guests staying here were in their rooms. There were only a few people and employees left in the lobby, sitting at three tables for dinner.
Hearing this, the chef immediately smiled and waved his hands: "No, it's just that the dishes at the boss's house are delicious, so I just made some."
“If the food tastes good, it has to be cooked well. If it tastes bad, it’s a waste.”
The chef laughed happily when he heard this.
"Auntie's family also grows vegetables?"
"Well, in addition to fruits, there are also vegetables. There are many kinds. If you like, you can pick some and take them home tomorrow."
"Really? Then I won't be polite!" Yu Ze immediately agreed and ate his meal with big mouthfuls.
After the meal, the employees cleared the dishes and a few people helped to tidy up the tables and chairs. They walked around the inn while Lin's mother and Lin Nanye were doing the accounting.
Yu Ze looked at a beautiful painting of a peacock on the wall. When he walked over to take a look, he realized that it was not a painting at all, but an embroidery.
"Nanzhi, this is embroidery?"
"Um."
"Who embroidered this? It's amazing. It looks like a painting. No, it's even better than a painting. It's so lifelike, just like the real thing."
The peacock in this embroidery seems to have a life of its own, with bright eyes and wings that seem ready to spread at any moment.
Lin Nanzhi felt a little embarrassed.
“That’s gone.”
"You embroidered it?"
Lin Nanzhi nodded.
Lin's mother is an embroidery master, and she learned some from her in her previous life and never gave up in this life, which is why she has achieved her current level of skills. However, she is far behind Lin's mother.
Lin's mother could embroider with both hands at the same time, but she just couldn't learn this skill.
"My mother is an excellent embroiderer. I just learned a little bit."
"You are too modest!"
"So Sister Nanxuan can do it too?"
Lin Nanxuan nodded, and Yu Ze immediately became curious and wanted to see where it was.
It just so happened that there was something hanging here, so Lin Nanxuan took Yu Ze to check it out. Wen Jiunian stepped forward and stared at the embroidery in front of him carefully, then gave Lin Nanzhi a thumbs up: "Amazing! Hidden skills!"
Lin Nanzhi felt even more embarrassed.
“Is this Shu embroidery?”
"Um."
Wen Jiunian was from the imperial capital, so it was not surprising that he could see the Shu embroidery.
"Are there any other paintings besides this one?"
"There is also a portrait that is not suitable to be hung here, at home."
Wen Jiunian did not speak again, but looked at the embroidery in front of him seriously.
An hour later, several people returned home with Lin's mother.
There are eight rooms in Uncle Lin's house, and four of them were still vacant. In the end, Lin Nanmeng, Lin Nanting, Aunt Lin, Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin's daughter were arranged to live with Lin's father.
The child should not be too old to sleep with the parents, otherwise there would probably be two more people.
Lin Nanzhi didn't care about these.
Yu Ze returned home and excitedly took out the gifts he had prepared for everyone, and looked at Wen Jiunian with pride. Unexpectedly, Wen Jiunian smiled and also took out the gifts he had prepared in advance, and even remembered to let Lin Nanzhi pass them on to Lin's father.
Lin Nanzhi held the gift and couldn't help but frown as he watched Wen Jiunian talking to Lin's mother.
Also prepared gifts!
I had prepared for the visit a long time ago, so much so that she even thought she was really invited by me.
It was late and everyone was getting ready to go to bed.
Wen Jiunian was still thinking about the portrait, so Lin Nanzhi took him to see it.
The portrait was not hung up but placed in the warehouse, wrapped in a moisture-proof bag and placed in a wooden box.
Lin Nanzhi took it out and opened it for Wen Jiunian to see.
The portrait is an embroidered family picture, with six members of the family included in it.
The embroidery used was satin embroidery, and Wen Jiunian didn't know how many techniques and needles were used. In short, the painting in front of him looked like a photo. The expressions on everyone's face were perfect and very realistic.
"Awesome, awesome!"
The embroidery was put back intact and left the warehouse.
"This is for you."
Wen Jiunian took out a small thing from his pocket and handed it to Lin Nanzhi. Lin Nanzhi took it, opened it and found that it was a pair of earrings, which were very beautiful.
"Give it to me?"
"Well, everyone has it, so of course yours won't be left out."
Lin Nan was indeed not aware of the gifts when they were distributed, but Wen Jiunian had already given one to her in August, so it was not appropriate for her to accept any more gifts now.
I closed the box and handed it back: "No."
"Why not?"
"You gave me August, tens of thousands of dollars, and I don't even know what gift to give. These earrings look very expensive, I don't want them."
Wen Jiunian frowned, not expecting this to be the case.
He did not take the box, but thought for a while and said, "How about this, when you have time, you can embroider a portrait for me?
Don't say it's not worth it!
Shu embroidery is now an intangible cultural heritage. I don’t know how valuable a piece of Shu embroidery is. After all, I am the one who makes the profit. You are not afraid of losing money and that’s why you are unwilling to do it, right?”
Lin Nanzhi knew that he said this on purpose.
Although it is an intangible cultural heritage, to her it is just something she can embroider in her spare time, and it is certainly not as valuable as the gift he gave her.
But since Wen Jiunian said so, it was difficult for her to refuse.
"Okay then, send me the photos you like later and I'll embroider them when I have time. You can either come pick them up or send them to me."
"good."
