Chapter 1117 What if the disabled boss can’t get better? (12)
After hearing what the curator said, Ye Jin shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either."
"Does your wife mind if I visit her? Is she busy?" the curator asked eagerly. When he came across something that interested him, he naturally couldn't suppress his inner curiosity.
Ye Jin: "She is usually at home. Except for the two or three hours when she is writing, she can be disturbed at any other time."
"That's great!" The curator was very happy. "I have to find time to talk to your wife. If her embroidery method is really gradually disappearing or even lost, that would be great."
Ye Jin: "I'll talk to her."
"Well, I'll leave it to you then." The curator patted him on the shoulder, then sighed, "You are really lucky. You married a wife who is not only a talented writer, but also an expert in embroidery. Your wife must be a very elegant and dignified woman, right?"
Ye Jin's mind suddenly emerged of Xiang Shichu in the yard, grabbing Xiang Nan with one hand, pointing with the other, glaring at Xiang Nan and scolding him that if he chased his chickens again, he would not be allowed to eat a meal; and her sharp-tongued appearance when bickering with Jiang Rushong and Wu Qingxuan... She didn't look elegant and dignified at all at that time.
But forget it, he should not expose Xiang Shichu’s good image in front of outsiders, Ye Jin thought.
When Ye Jin returned home, he told Xiang Shichu that his leader, the director of the museum, wanted to discuss with her her embroidery techniques on handkerchiefs.
Xiang Shichu agreed without hesitation.
So soon, the curator visited Xiang Shichu on a weekend morning, and Xiang Shichu received him very politely.
The curator is indeed very knowledgeable. He can talk about cultural relics casually, but when it comes to embroidery, although he himself said that he doesn't know much, this is actually modesty. He knows a lot in this area. Even if he can't be considered an expert, he has a comprehensive understanding of it.
Xiang Shichu was not a person who cherished her own things, and her embroidery technique was not original to her, but something she learned in some other world. Even though it was not exactly the same as the historical embroidery technique in this world, there were similarities. Therefore, her communication with the curator was very smooth and there were no obstacles.
After communicating with Xiang Shichu, the curator returned with great satisfaction. He also left Xiang Shichu a contact number, saying that he had a friend who was an expert in embroidery and wanted to introduce them to each other for communication.
Although Xiang Shichu originally only wanted to embroider a few handkerchiefs to thank Ye Jin's colleagues and had no other purpose, the curator valued her skills in this area so much that she couldn't refuse. So after a few visits, she got in touch with the curator's friend and became a pen pal.
The pen pal is a female master, and her works are of a level that can be exhibited abroad, but she is willing to exchange embroidery content with Xiang Shichu, a "insignificant" and "unknown" person. She is really approachable.
She also asked Xiang Shichu to mail her a piece of her work for her to appreciate, and also sent her own work to Xiang Shichu. Xiang Shichu had to embroider a piece of work carefully in addition to writing, so he became even busier.
Xiang Nan had no choice but to continue following Ye Jin to work.
This made Wu Qingxuan, who kept an eye on their family from time to time, extremely jealous. It was obvious that after Xiang Shichu married Ye Jin, she only needed to take care of her own younger brother, which was already leisurely enough. But now, she didn't even take care of her own younger brother, and let Ye Jin take him to the unit!
This was really too much. She didn't understand why Ye Jin would agree to this. Wasn't he a cold-hearted man who only cared about himself and didn't care about others? In his dream, he wanted to draw a line between them and have nothing to do with them. But now he treated Xiang Shichu like a perfect husband. In order not to disturb her from writing, he even brought his brother-in-law to work.
Wu Qingxuan was so jealous that her eyes were about to burst into flames. She didn't understand why Ye Jin treated her and Xiang Shichu so differently. Was she really not as good as Xiang Shichu in Ye Jin's eyes? But in her dream, not only did she not have a younger brother who was a burden to her, but she also tried her best to please him and took care of all the housework, hoping that he would like her. But she didn't expect that the opposite would happen.
But why is it that Xiang Shichu not only has a younger brother who is a burden, but sometimes even doesn't do housework and pushes his younger brother to Ye Jin to take care of him, but Ye Jin doesn't dislike him at all?
Wu Qingxuan couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried. Is Ye Jin really a masochist?
Although she had married Jiang Rushong and hoped that she would be honored by her husband in the future, she was still bothered by the fact that no matter how much she pestered Ye Jin in her dream, she could not win his heart.
She was jealous of Xiang Shichu, jealous of her for winning Ye Jin's heart. Yes, in Wu Qingxuan's eyes, Xiang Shichu had already won Ye Jin's heart, otherwise Ye Jin would not have been able to get along so well with Xiang Nan. He was a very slow-to-warm-up person, and if someone was not truly accepted by him, even if he would take responsibility, he would not consider that person in every aspect.
But now, he would smile at Xiang Shichu and Xiang Nan, and speak to them in such an intimate tone, with his eyes and eyebrows showing his concern for them. Wu Qingxuan saw it very clearly, so she couldn't let it go: why did Xiang Shichu easily get Ye Jin's love that she could never get no matter what?
She was in such a bad mood that she couldn't be so careful and considerate when taking care of Jiang Rushong and his two sons. Jiang Yong needed to go to school, but he refused to go and cried and said he didn't want to study. Jiang Rushong scolded him, but Jiang Yong was not convinced. Jiang Rushong had no choice but to let Wu Qingxuan take him to school by force.
However, Jiang Yong resisted fiercely, calling Wu Qingxuan a vicious stepmother and kicking and beating her non-stop.
Jiang Yong was six years old and had quite a lot of strength when he hit people. Wu Qingxuan was hit on the arm by him and she didn't know which nerve was hit, so the arm that she was holding horizontally with Jiang Yong immediately lost its strength, and her arm loosened, and Jiang Yong fell to the ground.
Jiang Yong was stunned at first, and then immediately burst into tears, complaining that Wu Qingxuan wanted to throw him to death, and that he was injured and could not go to school. Anyway, the noise made the whole family restless.
Wu Qingxuan was already in a bad mood, and Jiang Yong was being unreasonable. She couldn't stand it anymore and slapped Jiang Yong in the face: "Shut up!"
All of a sudden, the world became quiet. Jiang Rushong looked at her in astonishment. Jiang Yong was stunned for a moment, and then stared at her with hatred in his eyes, as if he was looking at a mortal enemy.
Wu Qingxuan finally calmed down under his gaze, but she might as well not calm down, because she realized that things were messed up. The image of her as a gentle and virtuous stepmother and good wife since she got married was shattered by this slap in the face, and her face turned pale instantly.
