Chapter 131 Embroidery Techniques of the Sui Dynasty - "Wandering Silk Traces"

"All right."

When Cuilan looked up, Cao Yuan realized that he had been staring in a daze. In less than half an hour, a cluster of orchids had bloomed on his white t-shirt.

Like a secluded orchid in a secluded valley, it stands alone and independent, gentle and serene, just like a green orchid.

Cao Yuan stopped recording, picked up the clothes, admired them, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Beautiful, so beautiful!"

His eyes were full of surprise. "Cuilan, your hands are so skillful and amazing. In such a short time, you have embroidered such a beautiful cluster of orchids."

"You're so good at reading and embroidery, I really doubt there's anything you can't do."

Cao Yuan even felt that he, as just an ordinary traditional Chinese medicine doctor, was not good enough for Cuilan.

Looking at Cao Yuan's joyful expression, Cuilan's lingering regret suddenly vanished.

A hundred years ago, she also embroidered a robe with orchids, intending to give it to Cao Yuan on his birthday.

But she couldn't wait.

Looking at Cao Yuan now, so happy that he couldn't wait to put on the clothes, she felt as if she had traveled back a hundred years through him. If Cao Yuan could have returned back then, he would have been just as happy to receive the robe she made herself.

Now, she has made up for her regrets.

"Cuilan, sometimes I really feel that you are like a lady from an ancient noble family." Wearing a cheongsam, you are so quiet when reading, and your manners are very particular. You can also embroider. Nowadays, how many people can embroider?

Moreover, when he looked at Cuilan's embroidery, he even felt that Cuilan Ruoshui would have looked even better in ancient clothes.

"A lady from a respectable family?" Cuilan smiled.

She was far from being a lady of high birth; she was merely a maid, a palace maid, or a servant.

Only a fool like you would treat me like a treasure and protect me like that.

Because the weather is not right, it's early winter now and quite cold, otherwise Cao Yuan would definitely wear this white T-shirt and show it off everywhere.

However, even though he couldn't wear it out to show off, Cao Yuan still filmed it and posted the video of Cui Lan embroidering orchids on his WeChat Moments.

As soon as the post was published on WeChat Moments, my old friends were all excited and called to ask about it.

[Old Cao, is something going on with you?]

[This is a 50-year-old ironwood tree that's finally about to bloom! It's been a long time coming, really long.]

[I'm really worried about what kind of woman could have made you fall for her. Why didn't you take a picture of her face? But judging from her profile, I think she must be pretty.]

Cao Yuan thought to himself: Of course I can't film it for you guys. Cuilan is so good, what if you fall for her?

Most of his old friends are married, and some are even fathers or grandfathers.

However, some of them had lost their spouses or divorced.

Cao Yuan was certain that if these people saw his Cuilan, they would all be like hungry wolves seeing food.

So, of course we can't show it to them.

Treasures, of course, should be hidden away, to be appreciated and treasured by oneself at one's own pace.

After learning that Cuilan wanted to livestream her embroidery skills, Cao Yuan readily agreed.

"I'll get the equipment for the live stream for you, but it might take a while." He planned to personally find some good live stream equipment for Cuilan.

"It's okay, even if I want to do a live stream, I'll have to wait until I'm on vacation." These days, she has to work both day and night, so unless she's on vacation, she won't have time to do a live stream.

"it is good."
-
It took Cao Yuan half a month to buy those live streaming equipment.

It was installed in Cuilan's home.

As for Cuilan, after working in the human world for a month, it's almost time for her to take a vacation. The reason I say "almost" is because Cuilan has been working at the hospital during the day as usual these past few days, and going on business trips at night.

It's because I need to go on a business trip to the funeral home.

Because of a plane crash.

A while ago, a plane crashed into a mountain in Wuling City, killing all of the more than one hundred people on board.

The mountains and fields were almost entirely populated by people, yet there was no one to be found.

Cuilan was on an emergency business trip to repair the bodies and souls of those who had died, so that they could be reincarnated properly.

People from other funeral homes also went.

But apart from Cuilan, no one else saw it, and no one had the ability or courage.

In the end, it was Cuilan who took on all the stitching.

She was busy and almost never stopped until today, when Cuilan finally got a day off.

During her vacation, upon seeing the prepared live-streaming equipment, Cuilan decided to start a live stream.

Cao Yuan specifically learned how to register an account and how to operate a live stream.

When Xu Qingling learned of Cuilan's plan, she asked her if she wanted to use her Fengdu Leave Office account to give her a push, but Cuilan refused.

However, after seeing Cuilan's embroidery skills, Xu Qingling felt that gold will always shine.

Cuilan's embroidery skills are so good, she's going to become famous.

Soon, under Cao Yuan's guidance, the Penguin account that only had one viewer, "Come Embroider," quietly started broadcasting.

As for who this person is, it is naturally Cao Yuan.

On camera, Cuilan had everything prepared, and this time, Cao Yuan didn't prevent Cuilan from showing her face.

Cuilan showed her face, still wearing the cheongsam she wore when the two first met, looking very gentle and quiet.

Cao Yuan truly felt that Cui Lan at this moment was like a secluded orchid in a valley, stunning at first sight and captivating, making one linger and reluctant to leave.

"Shall I begin?" Cuilan asked, looking up.

"it is good."

Soon, Cuilan began threading the needle and starting to embroider.

Today she plans to embroider a landscape painting, with mountains, water, sky, and clouds...

It's very difficult, especially since Cuilan also plans to use an embroidery technique from the Sui Dynasty called "Cloud Wandering Silk Traces".

It can skillfully capture the fluidity of flowing water, the lightness of willow catkins in the wind, and even the brightness of moonlight by weaving silk threads onto silk fabric.

Embroidery, no matter how exquisite the technique, is just a static, lifeless thing on the fabric, even though the original dynamic and flowing elements are on the fabric.

But Cuilan's embroidery technique is able to capture the movement of objects.

This time, Cuilan also prepared silk, and the "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting was embroidered on silk.

Under the bright lights, her hands moved nimbly and steadily, the embroidery needle dancing on the silk with her breath, the silver thread moving with her fingertips.

Upon closer inspection, every stitch and thread seems to come alive, weaving together a picture that is both tangible and intangible, clear yet tinged with a touch of haziness, much like the misty rain of Jiangnan, captivating the viewer. The flowers, birds, fish, and insects on the embroidery are so lifelike, as if they might leap off the silk and fly into reality at any moment.

Cao Yuan was once again stunned by what he saw.

Their live streaming account was a new one, and although they didn't have a fan base before, there were no viewers when they first started streaming.
