Listening to Xue's fast and flexible hands, she had already cut and glued the flowers of the white egret orchid after a while, but at this time she found a problem, the petals could not stand up, wilted.

"Master, it seems that you can't use wire." She also thought that she could reduce the cost by not using wire.

Da Lou Shi looked at it and said, "This is easy, you use two pieces of petals to stick together, just like we usually beat the soles of our shoes, the cloth is stained with paste and baked on the stove to dry, and it will be hard." ”

"Then the slave and maid try."

"Wait." Xiao Qingyue also remembered something, "This wire can't be wrapped directly in cloth, the wire is easy to embroider, if it is wrapped directly, it won't be long before this flower can be appreciated." Wait for some oil or paint on top. ”

When Xue heard this, she said, "The slave went out and let someone get it." ”

"Cheng, remember to raise the stove again when you come back."

"Yes."

After listening to Xue go out, Da Lou said, "You girl is very smart and clever, and she is not much worse than a young lady." ”

"No, I can help do a lot of things, and I have to pick a family affair for her when I turn back."

"It's a pity when it comes to family affairs, I'm afraid it's hard to find her identity." If you are a slave, you are afraid that the good people are not happy, and if you say that you are also a slave, you are a little wronged.

"It's easy, just go back and give her a naturalization."

Xiao Qingyue didn't plan to let the people around her be slaves for the rest of her life, listening to snow and listening to frost are the same, and when their family affairs are decided, she will return the deed of sale to them.

"If that's the case, it's easy to find."

Soon listened to the snow and returned, and brought a stove and a tea hanger.

Xiao Qingyue put the re-glued petals on the tea hanger, and the petals dried after a while, but the petals glued with paste are only suitable for egret orchids and tulips, and the petals are flat or vertical. Curly petals like hyacinths still have to be wired.

After a while, the old servant who guarded the door brought paint, and Xiao Qingyue brushed the wire with a layer of paint and dried it on the stove, and then cut the petals in a large circle, and then sewed the wire into it with a needle and thread. The petals are ready, and they are glued around a stalk with a green cloth glued.

Glue the small flowers, and find a wooden stick wrapped in green cloth to make the main flower stalk of the hyacinth, and then make some cotton wool sewn in the front section, and insert the small flowers on the flower stalk with cotton wool like a sugar gourd.

Wrap a few green leaves on the outside, cut a few brown strips of cloth, make the strips of cloth hairy, make flower roots, and a pot of fake flowers will become.

Xiao Qingyue went to find a glass bottle, poured it with water, put fake flowers in it, and said with a smile, "It's okay to confuse the real with the fake." ”

"Beautiful." Listening to Xue said very honestly, and then held up his white herret orchid, "I've got it done too." ”

Da Lou said, "I'm afraid that one or two of my flowers alone are not good-looking, but it takes more than a dozen flowers together to look good." ”

"You don't need so much, if you make potted flowers, two or three will be enough, and you can go back and get more branches and leaves to wrap it. If you make a bouquet, you need about a dozen flowers to look good. ”

Xiao Qingyue looked at the flowers in her hand and said with a smile, "It doesn't cost much to make the fabric for flowers, and the expensive ones are these wires and labor." ”

"Master, I went to the iron shop, and the man in the iron shop said that this bundle of iron wire is one catty, and a catty is more than fifteen zhang, and the finer the price, the more expensive it is, this is the thinnest, and one catty costs two hundred and seventy copper plates. This kind of backbone is cheaper, about three zhang a catty, a hundred copper plates. ”

[PS About the price of iron: borrowed the price of iron in the Water Margin, according to a copper plate for one dollar, there is about a pound of iron 90 copper plates. In the poems of the Song Dynasty, there was already a record of iron wire, but the technology was not developed, so I was a little longer on the price~~ Anyway, it's not accurate, don't delve into it~~]
