After the marriage, the strong beauty became rich and busy raising children

Chapter 301 Beautiful Snow Suspension Bridge

Guan Youshuang glanced sideways and said, "I'll go to bed after finishing this. Are you back?"

"Well, that leader is too long-winded. The discussion never ends." Gu Errong leaned over and asked, "Is this the Baifeng Suspension Bridge?"

“Yes, I want to embroider this.”

"But your drawing is very complicated. Will it be hard to embroider it?"

Guan Youshuang rubbed her eyes and said, "It's a bit hard, but since it's a provincial competition, there must be a lot of people participating. There are always people who are better than you. If I don't embroider more beautifully, how can I win a prize?"

Gu Errong pulled Guan Youshuang up, held her face, and made her look at him: "If you didn't win the award, then you didn't win the award. I don't want you to work so hard. I've become a regular employee now, and I'll be promoted after taking the college entrance examination next year. My salary will double by then, which is more than enough to support you and the child."

"I know, but I'm not doing this just for myself. There are more than a hundred people in two embroidery factories. They have to make a living with this craft. I have to be responsible for them. In this competition, in addition to the prize money, if you participate in the competition in the name of your company or factory, you can also get interviews and publicity from TV stations. Our factory needs this kind of publicity the most right now."

"I understand your thoughts, but now, you have to sleep. You are pregnant, how can you be so tired?"

As he spoke, Gu Errong picked up Guan Youshuang, put her on the bed, and helped her take off her shoes.

“I haven’t finished the color matching yet.”

"It's already past one o'clock, be good, it's time to go to bed." Gu Errong arranged the pillows and helped her to sleep. "You lie down first, I'll go boil some water, you can soak your feet and relax."

Gu Errong was boiling water and washing his feet in the bathroom. When he came out with the basin, Guan Youshuang had already fallen asleep.

It only takes a few minutes.

Gu Errong helped her take off her clothes with concern, gently wiped her feet, and then covered her with a quilt.

Guan Youshuang did not wake up during the whole process.

She is so tired.

It was late at night, but the bustling Baifeng City was still awake, and the sound of vehicles could be heard from time to time outside the window.

In the room, Guan Youshuang breathed evenly.

Gu Errong lost all desire to sleep.

He looked at his beloved woman quietly for a long time.

She works too hard.

In an era when most women could only rely on men to survive, she managed to carve out a path for herself.

Gu Errong looked at his suitcase.

In addition to the materials needed for work, he also packed several high school textbooks and the study plan that Guan Youshuang had made for him.

In order to get into a good university next year, he has to work harder.

He strode over and took out the math textbook.

The hotel was equipped with desk lamps. Gu Errong looked at Guan Youshuang, turned the lamp down very low, and began to concentrate on studying.

In fact, Gu Errong has a strong learning ability. In the army, he not only learned musical instruments and dance, but also studied cultural subjects.

This makes me pick up the textbook again and I don’t feel it is unfamiliar. Instead, I feel more energetic the more I read.

Finally I saw it at around three o'clock.

If it weren't for the fact that he had to go on a field trip early the next morning, he felt that he could study all night.

The sunlight shines in through the curtains.

Guan Youshuang opened her eyes.

When she looked, it was already past ten o'clock.

Oh, why did I oversleep?

Gu Errong had left long ago.

There was a thermos on the table with a note underneath and a set of clean dishes and chopsticks next to the note.

Guan Youshuang walked over and saw Gu Errong's strong handwriting: Wife, I went to Baifeng Reservoir for an inspection. Breakfast is in the thermos bucket. Remember to eat it.

She opened the thermos, and the lid was full of steam. On the top layer was a small piece of boiled corn, a boiled egg, a steamed bun, and half a sweet potato. The bottom layer was golden pumpkin millet porridge. At the bottom was a layer of boiling water for insulation.

Guan Youshuang felt warm in her heart. She quickly washed her face, ate breakfast in big mouthfuls, and started to get busy again.

Last night, she didn't finish the color matching because of Gu Errong's "interference".

In order to avoid being disturbed again, she turned off her cell phone in advance.

She thought about the drawing for a long time, then looked at the various colored embroidery threads, and finally came up with an idea.

Because it is a winter snow scene, she chose pure white as the main color to show the purity of the snow scene.

In order to make the snow scene more vivid, she selected several different white threads, namely silver white, milky white and ivory white, so that the layering and light and shadow effects of the snow can be shown when embroidering.

At the same time, she also chose light blue and light gray to express the three-dimensional sense of shadows and the bridge.

Next, it’s time to embroider.

Regarding the choice of needlework, she had considered before that traditional needlework could not vividly express snowflakes, so in this embroidery creation, she used her own original "Liuyun" needlework.

This needlework can well express the dynamics and fluidity of flying snowflakes.

She locked herself in the hotel, automatically blocking out the noise from the outside world.

Sometimes, she really feels that the greatest charm of embroidery is not the creation of the work itself, but the provision of a pure land for the soul.

The needle and thread slid gently across the cloth, like a paintbrush, outlining the outline of the suspension bridge stitch by stitch.

The cables of the bridge are embroidered with delicate flat stitches, while the snow on the bridge is lightly embellished with flowing cloud stitches, as if snowflakes are floating in the wind.

Her technique is skillful and every stitch is extremely precise, as if she is weaving a dream.

She didn't know how long it was, but when the two little lives in her belly started to make noises, she realized it was time to eat.

She turned on her phone and it was already seven o'clock in the evening.

There were several text messages in the mobile phone, all sent by Gu Errong.

She was about to return a call when the doorknob turned and Gu Errong came in.

His face was filled with worry, and he asked anxiously, "Youshuang, why is your phone turned off? I was scared to death."

"Look how nervous you are. I'm embroidering a suspension bridge and my phone is charging. Why are you back so late?"

"The reservoir is far away, and we can only take the unified bus. Have you not missed a meal for a day?"

Afraid that Gu Errong would worry, Guan Youshuang lied: "I had lunch and was about to have dinner."

"Okay, let's go eat now."

The embroidery process is long and meticulous.

In the following days, Guan Youshuang worked day and night.

Every day after Gu Errong left, she would have a simple breakfast and then start her day of embroidery. Her fingers danced on the cloth, and the needle and thread shuttled between her fingers.

Every time she finishes a section of embroidery, she will put the entire work farther away and look at it carefully to make sure every detail is perfect.

After ten days of intensive work, the embroidery work of a suspension bridge in the snow was finally completed.

The suspension bridge looks particularly magnificent in the snow scene. Snowflakes are flying in the air, and the snow on the bridge is piled up layer by layer, as if you can feel the chill of winter.

Every detail is lifelike; the cables of the bridge, the glacier under the bridge, and the mountains in the distance are all perfectly reproduced by her needle and thread.

That day, Guan Youshuang slept soundly until she woke up naturally. As soon as she woke up, she received a call from Yang Yan.

Yang Yan reminded her that she could submit her work today and sent her the detailed address.

Guan Youshuang packed up simply and took her works to the provincial museum.
