Xia Zhinan and Hua En step into a small but slightly primitive hut with curtains and doors. The monotonous sound of the sewing machine gurgles out of the gift.
Xia Zhinan was pleasantly surprised to see the suit coat hanging on the ancient wooden frame.
"Hello, two little girls. What can I do for you? Let's see if there's anything I can help you with?" a kind and solemn grandfather came over with a smile on crutches.
"Grandpa, we want to see the men's suit material and make it ourselves." Hua En walked over and answered.
"Oh, the two little girls are fashion designers? The future is unlimited. Come on, grandpa has collected several sets of good cloth, including wool for casual suits or formal suits. You can choose slowly!"
The shopkeeper's grandfather took them to a corner in the store. There, he used a large box to collect several pieces of top-grade fabrics. Xia Zhinan touched them with his hands and was very satisfied.
"There are many kinds of fabrics for men's suits, among which wool and cashmere are the most commonly used fabrics for suits. Generally, formal suits use wool as the main fabric. This kind of fabric has fine fiber, soft and comfortable feel, good gloss and drape, and the ready-made clothes are noble and elegant, such as the one you have now," the old man said gently, "Of course, with the change of times and the change of clothing fashion, cotton, hemp, silk, velvet and even many chemical fibers and high-tech materials are gradually applied to the fabric of suits, which not only enriches the wearability of clothes, but also gives us more choices. Therefore, modern suit fabrics have many different materials and colors, but most of these suits are casual 。”
"Grandpa, I'll take these two, one red and one blue." Xia Zhinan smiled happily.
"Oh, ha ha ~" Grandpa smiled and nodded. "The little girl is for her boyfriend."
Xia Zhinan smiled shyly and replied yes.
Grandpa helped Xia Zhinan pack the cloth and handed it to Xia Zhinan with trembling hands. Then he looked at the two beautiful girls and sighed slightly, "the little girl is really young! My wife, like you, went to some simple shops to buy me a suit."
"In the past, when we first met, my conditions were relatively poor. She cared about my self-esteem and never wanted me to pay for her gifts. She bought a lot for me. Later, she was afraid of hurting my self-esteem. The gifts bought for me would look less high-profile and expensive when packaged, just to make me accept them more calmly."
"She is the eldest lady of a rich family, but she is willing to follow me for a lifetime. At first, her family was very opposed. Later, she insisted. I also worked hard to make money and didn't dare to be lazy for a moment. Only then did her family change their mind and agree to her marrying me."
"We have worked hard in big cities for many years and have seen a lot of on-off and on-off. We both experienced several small and big quarrels. Fortunately, we both insisted on each other to the end."
"I'm really glad."
Grandpa's tone was a little bleak. Coupled with the bleak autumn wind, it seemed silent.
After hearing grandpa's words, Hua En couldn't help asking, "Grandpa, what about your current wife?"
"She......" Grandpa smiled bitterly. "Five years ago, she had a car accident and was sent to the hospital for treatment in time to save her life, but she never woke up to talk to me."
"She's lying in the back room now, hanging a drop of liquid. Although she won't wake up and respond to what I say, I always know that she will hear every word I say to her and that I stick to this small suit tailor's shop for her for ten years. When her moving value is full, she will wake up and hug me hard!"
"I always believe..."
After saying goodbye to Grandpa, Xia Zhinan and Hua En left the tailor's shop and continued to walk on the lover's lane.
Hua En was greatly influenced by what grandpa just said, and now he was holding his words in his heart.
Knowing this, Xia Zhinan turned to look at Hua En, "Hua En, do you want to try something you haven't done?"
"What?" Vaughn opened his eyes curiously.
"Come with me."
Xia Zhinan led Hua En into a quiet alley and finally stopped at a tattoo shop with a clean store.
Xia Zhinan was a regular customer of this tattoo shop five or six years ago.
"I used to like it here." Xia Zhinan took Hua En into the store. "The tattoo artist is very emotional. He can always know what kind of emotion you have entered here, so every stroke you start can hide his interpretation of the feelings you want to express."
Hua En nodded, then his eyes lit up, "it sounds amazing!"
"Ah, Xia Zhinan, long time no see!" a white tattoo teacher came out of the inner room and came to Xia Zhinan with a smile in his eyes. "You haven't come for five or six years. Our small store almost disappeared in the crowd, turned into ashes and floated to the other side of the sea..."
When Xia Zhinan heard the tattoo boy's words, he immediately smiled, "I'm afraid of death. Others don't know that you came out of the third rate Chinese Department of the third rate college."
The young man smiled.
"Hua En, this is my appointed tattoo artist. Before, every time I came here for tattoo, I always looked for him. He said his name was Steven."
"Steven! OK? It sounds good to read English. Why do you have to use Chinese for years? It's not vulgar!"
"Hahaha, how interesting! Hello, Steven, my name is Vivien."
"Hello ~" Steven was embarrassed when he finished the word, so he came to Xia Zhinan's ear, lowered his head and asked, "Zhinan, what are you talking about?"
"Pooh, let you pretend to be forced! It's not embarrassing to lose it. The kindergarten can understand it! Steven!" Xia Zhinan pushed her away with a smile, turned to Hua En and said, "Hua En, he said he didn't understand what you said just now."
Hua En was stunned, smiled, and then re introduced himself in fluent Chinese.
Steven smiled in surprise after hearing this. "Hua En, are you a foreign beauty? Hello! Your Chinese is so fluent."
Hua En smiled shyly, "I'm a hybrid. I often came to China when I was young."
"I see. Do you want to kiss your cheeks when you meet and say hello? Shall we..."
Hua En was surprised. Xia Zhinan quickly bumped the big boy with his elbow. "Don't scare away the people I brought. Believe it or not, I asked sun yetian to come and tear down your nest!"
"Oh, my ancestors! Don't find the little devil sun yetian. He hasn't come to trouble me in the past five years. Don't bother me!"
"Look at my mood," said Xia Zhinan.
“……”
Steven quickly changed the topic "so, dear, beautiful, noble, beautiful and lovely miss Zhinan, how are you feeling today and what do you want to tattoo?"
Xia Zhinan squinted at Steven and said with a smile, "tattoo a string of English".
