407. Chapter 406 Unfilial


Even the coarse porcelain bowl used for eating had several gaps. When Shen Shujun was eating, she deliberately avoided the gaps and carefully took the noodles into her mouth.

She didn't eat much in the morning, only a small steamed bun. Shen Shujun was a little hungry at this time, and she seemed to be gobbling up the food.

After seeing Xia Mingyue walking into the yard, Shen Shujun felt a little rude. She quickly put down the bowl in her hand and stood up in embarrassment, "Ms. Xia is here, sit down quickly."

After that, he went to pour tea for Xia Mingyue.

When she thought that she had no tea left, Shen Shujun had no choice but to purse her lips and pour a bowl of water for Xia Mingyue.

"Thank you, Madam Shen." Xia Mingyue saw that there was boiled water in the bowl, her heart moved, and she took a sip without disdain, "I happen to be a little thirsty too, so you're welcome."

Seeing Xia Mingyue's behavior Generous, not because of He despised the embarrassment of her life at this time, and felt warm in his heart, "Ms. Xia is here now, are you looking for me for something?"

"Exactly." Xia Mingyue nodded, "It's a bit lively. Ask Lady Shen to do it, I don’t know Lady Shen Are you willing?"

When she heard that there was a job, Shen Shujun was immediately overjoyed, "I wonder what kind of job it is?"

Xia Mingyue saw that Shen Shujun was very interested in it, so she wanted to hire her. Writing on red paper He told her in detail, "The amount is uncertain at the moment. It should be a lot more. Madam Shen will set the price. All the pen, ink and paper required will be supplied by me, and you will need to ask Madam Shen to come to my place to write." .”

"Of course. If you want to go over there and write these words, I can provide three meals a day. Madam Shen only needs to go there. I wonder if Madam Shen is willing to take over this job?"

"Yes, I am willing to take this job!" Shen Shujun agreed without any hesitation.

Based on her current situation, having a full meal is about to become a luxury. At this time, having a profitable job and being able to take care of the food has solved her urgent need!

What's more, she heard in the past few days that Mrs. Xia Mingyue is a good cook, and the Xia Ji she runs is very popular in Changzhou Fucheng.

Think about it, even if Madam Xia’s food is not made by Madam Xia herself, the taste will definitely be excellent.

This time, she found a good job!

Shen Shujun cherished this very much, and even expressed her position repeatedly, "Don't worry, Madam Xia, I will write well for Madam Xia and satisfy Madam Xia!"

"It's not just about writing. "Good words." Xia Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled, "We also want to be arty, and we have to ask Madam Shen to pay more attention to the red paper to see if there are other better ideas."

"Of course, Madam Shen, please rest assured. If you do the work carefully and do a lot, the reward will naturally not be unfair to Madam Shen."

That means she needs to think more about good luck and happiness. If possible, simply outline some lace patterns, such as lyrics or short poems, to make it look more beautiful.

Shen Shujun nodded again, "I understand what Madam Xia means, but I don't know when I will start working?"

"How about tomorrow morning?" Xia Mingyue said.

"Okay." Shen Shujun responded.

After agreeing on the matter, Xia Mingyue said goodbye and left.

Shen Shujun walked out of the alley and then returned to the yard. She picked up the half bowl of glutinous rice noodles that had not yet been finished and continued to put it in her mouth.

The glutinous rice noodles were already cold at this time, but Shen Shujun didn't care about it. Instead, she was thinking about what Xia Mingyue said about putting care on the red paper.

After filling his stomach, he went into the house and opened a large box placed in the house.

There are many books stacked in the box, many of which have old and yellowed paper, showing their age, and on one side of the books is a small rolled up bundle. Shen Shujun picked up the small bundle and opened it layer by layer, revealing the items inside.

It is a brush.

This pen is a Yangzhou water pen. It is made of rabbit tip as the main material and kongma as the auxiliary material. It is said that there are more than a hundred manufacturing processes alone. The pen has excellent texture, is comfortable to use, contains water and does not leak, and is suitable for writing. Easy to draw, write smoothly, and durable.

This pen was also made by a famous craftsman in Yangzhou, and its quality is comparable to that of the royal family. It was also one of the dowries prepared by Shen Shujun's grandfather when she got married.

Shen Shujun looked at the pen for a long time, hesitated for a long time, and finally reached out and took it out, holding it tightly in his hand.

The mist in her eyes filled her eyes almost instantly. Shen Shujun gritted her teeth to prevent tears from falling.

"This person is not a good person. If you insist on having your own way, then you will no longer be the daughter of my Shen family!"

"Mr. Qin and I are in love, and our friendship can be learned from heaven and earth. If my grandfather insists on doing this, he can only forgive Shujun for being unfilial!"

The quarrel before getting married still seemed to be echoing in his ears, Shen Shujun saw it with tears in his eyes. What is visible is the angry, depressed, shocked and old face of my grandfather.

Tears fell, Shen Shujun couldn't bear it anymore, she leaned on the wooden box and cried loudly.

She is indeed very unfilial.

It was then and it is now...

——

Early the next morning, Xia Mingyue welcomed Shen Shujun to her door.

After first carefully introducing the types, shapes and sizes of the mooncakes she planned to sell, her recent business ideas, as well as the mooncakes’ pricing and target audience, Xia Mingyue gave Shen Shujun all the authority to exercise her own discretion.

Seeing that Xia Mingyue trusted and favored her, Shen Shujun felt warm in her heart and made up her mind to do this matter well.

I stayed up for half the night last night thinking about some auspicious words and patterns that would be suitable for mooncakes. After seeing all kinds of mooncakes today, Shen Shujun had more and more ideas. , only appear on the paper.

After writing and drawing for half a day, Shen Shujun showed Xia Mingyue the results of the morning before lunch.

"The flowers are full and the moon is full", "People last forever, we share the beauty of the moon", "The bright moon thousands of miles sends my love"...

At first glance, the content is not amazing, but Shen Shujun's handwriting Dejuanxiu is smart and beautiful, making the originally ordinary words full of charm. What's more important is that Shen Shujun has drawn some patterns on every piece of red paper.

Or the bright moon and auspicious clouds simply outlined with golden paint, or the bamboo branches drawn with black ink as if they were swaying in the wind, or a blooming golden chrysanthemum...

The pattern is small and exquisite, and adds a lot of color to the characters.

Such a red paper note placed on the outer packaging of moon cakes is enough to make people's eyes shine and marvel.

“Yes.” If the time is too long, you may not be able to meet the normal demand for mooncakes, so you need to think of other ways.

"My writing and drawing speed is pretty good. If I count carefully, I can draw four in one cup of tea." Shen Shujun replied. (End of this chapter)
