Tian Yuzhu said seriously: "But ethnic costumes are all about details, and these details are very important. They all have stories, they are not just embroidered casually."
"What do you know?"
Being contradicted in front of everyone, Song Fang felt that her authority as team leader was being challenged.
Her voice suddenly rose. "You're a soldier's wife from the countryside, barely able to read, and yet you're here directing my work. Let me tell you, if the mayor hadn't specifically asked you to take the photo, you'd never have had such an opportunity in your life. And you don't even know how to shut up and cherish it."
"Okay, then I'll go find Mayor Qin and ask him who's right about the clothing issue.
Tian Yuzhu will not indulge her.
Since these photos were taken for publicity purposes, they are misleading.
Seeing them arguing, the three girls didn't understand and were so scared that they stood there at a loss as to what to do.
Then Song Fang watched in surprise as she not only walked away by herself, but also walked over and held the girls' hands: "Let's go, let's not take pictures."
The girls followed her, confused.
"Tian Yuzhu, stop right there." Song Fang hurriedly followed.
If the filming fails, doesn’t that mean there’s something wrong with my organizational skills?
In desperation, she reached out to pull him, but Tian Yuzhu shook her off.
Bang! Song Fang was thrown and hit the wall.
“…”
She stood firm with a look of shock on her face!!!
She is indeed a village woman from the countryside. How come she is so strong?
"Tian Yuzhu..."
After calming down, Song Fang quickly chased after him.
But unexpectedly, I saw that Tian Yuzhu had already met with Mayor Qin and was talking!
Tian Yuzhu came out of the lounge angrily with three ethnic girls and met Qin Xu.
He had nothing to do anyway, so he just waited for the villagers to change their clothes and smoked a cigarette.
As soon as I turned around, I saw it.
"What's going on?"
"Mayor Qin, I need to tell you something." Tian Yuzhu pointed at the girls' clothes. "The ethnic costumes Captain Song had the girls change into just now are different from their original ethnic costumes, from the embroidery to the style. If there's any similarity, it's only the color. This isn't right. If we want to showcase an ethnic group, shouldn't we show its authenticity, not just use some stage costumes as a substitute?"
"Then we must use the correct national costume, otherwise how can we promote it?"
At first, Qin Xu was a little surprised.
I didn’t expect Tian Yuzhu to be so forward-looking, and secondly, her observation skills.
But then he became furious. Song Fang happened to arrive and saw that he was hesitant in his steps.
Qin Xu waved and called her over: "Captain Song, what's going on? The clothes are different?"
Song Fang glanced at Tian Yuzhu with dissatisfaction, and said stubbornly, "Mayor, there are only some details that are different, like this pattern, and this..."
"Nonsense! Even a single mistake is disrespectful to the propaganda. The purpose of taking photos is to promote the cause. Do we really want to slap ourselves in the face and spread misinformation to everyone?"
Qin Xu was very, very angry.
This is no small mistake.
Song Fang was so scared that she didn't say a word, but she thought to herself that Mayor Qin was usually very gentle, so why did he get so angry over such a small matter today?
Xiaoyun, who heard the noise, ran over quickly: "Mayor..."
"Who's in charge of today's outfits?"
"It's Captain Song." Xiao Yun then realized that the atmosphere was a little off. He didn't feel like paying attention to anything else and just continued, "Mayor, the men's clothing is a little off. It's different from their traditional national costumes."
Now, the clothes for men and women were not the same, and Song Fang lowered her head in fear.
Qin Xu was furious and yelled, "Captain Song, you were the one who originally took on this task of finding the costumes, and you ended up doing such a shady job. What did I tell you? You must find the exact same costumes, even if they're half-new. It would be best if you can borrow them from the village."
Song Fang also patted her chest and said that she could handle it and asked the mayor not to worry.
The result... is this...
Seeing Qin Xu's face flush with anger, Xiaoyun could only bite the bullet and ask, "Mayor, what should we do now?"
Tian Yuzhu, who had been standing by silently, stepped forward and said, "Mayor Qin, there are only two options now. Either we ask everyone to go back and come back for another shoot once the costumes are ready, or we send someone back to the village to borrow some clothes. As long as they can show the characteristics of the clothes, even if they are a little old, it doesn't matter."
"We have to shoot today. It's not easy to get them all together. Everyone is preoccupied with their work in the fields. So, Xiaoyun, tell the bus driver we're going back to find some clothes. I'll go with you."
At this point, he looked at Song Fang and said, "Captain Song, you stay here and take good care of the villagers. Don't let them get lost!"
Song Fang didn't dare to say anything, not even raising her eyes, and nodded sullenly: "Yes."
It takes at least three hours to go back to Shuochi Town from the county seat, not including the time spent going to the village to borrow clothes.
Looks like I won’t be able to take pictures this morning.
While Qin Xu was still there, Tian Yuzhu suggested that they go for a walk on the street before coming back.
After all, there was no point in her staying here any longer. The real purpose of her visit was to get to know the county town.
So she and Qin Xu and the others acted separately.
After leaving the Workers' Cultural Palace, Tian Yuzhu began to stroll on the street.
She wanted to understand the general structure of the city and was most interested in where the speculators were.
People in this era relied on work points to make a living, but they couldn't make a living honestly, so this gray area black market emerged.
And no matter which era or city, it will form naturally.
As I was walking, I saw a department store, so I went in and bought a set of needlework supplies, including needles, thread, and a pair of scissors.
She also bought four pieces of cloth, one with plain flowers to make a bed sheet, and the other three pieces, some with flowers and some with plain flowers, which she wanted to make into shirts.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and I can’t wait to make summer clothes.
You can also buy ready-made clothes in department stores, but they are more expensive and the styles are almost identical.
Just thinking about Doudou and Chengcheng making their own little shirts, I feel so happy!
After buying the cloth, I bought twenty eggs.
All of these were bought with money, without a single ticket, and the total cost was twenty-two yuan. Fabric was more expensive in that era.
Seeing how generous she was, the sales clerks began to whisper.
"I've been working at the counter for so many years, and I've never seen anyone buy so much cloth at once."
"Exactly. Look how generous she is. Is her husband an official?"
"Tsk, a man is an official, why is she dressed so plainly?"
At this time, Wang Xiu Di and the other two also walked into the department store.
At this time, there are already quite a few people gathered at the vegetable cabinet, all of whom want to pick up some cheap vegetables.
After Wang Xiu Di and the others came in, they hurried over to join in the fun and did not see Tian Yu Zhu at first.
