Chapter 257 Summer Vacation Life
Feng Qingyi asked: "Did you say where you are going?"
"I haven't said which country we will go to yet. We will make arrangements when we get there," Feng Qing said.
Feng Qingyi thought for a while and found that she didn't seem to have any plans for this summer vacation.
A few days ago, "Jinghe" magazine published the painting for which she won the gold medal. The magazine also sent a special invitation email and even called her to request a contribution.
She also agreed. Although she only regarded painting as her hobby, no one would refuse if she was invited to write for "Jinghe" magazine.
In addition, it is time for Penglaiju to launch some summer items. Although the recent income has been relatively stable, in summer, the weather in Shengjing is also hot, and hot tea is not very popular.
Even the past snacks are not selling well, and everyone seems to prefer to stay at home.
When the final exam is over, she will have something to do. Thinking about it this summer, this summer should be very fulfilling.
In mid-July, Beijing University’s final exams arrived as scheduled.
After the busy exam week is over, everyone starts to pack up and go home.
Feng Qingyi specially went to the train station to see off Qu Jingqiu and Shen Hanyue.
Because their car hadn't arrived yet, Feng Qingyi sat with them outside the train station and waited.
Shen Hanyue sat on the big suitcase, "Qingyi, aren't you going back for the holidays?"
"It doesn't matter if I don't go back this time. There's no one at home anyway." Feng Qingyi said.
Shen Hanyue: "How about you go home with me! Although my home is a poor mountain village, it is a summer resort. It is cooler in summer, and you can go fishing and catching shrimp in the river."
Feng Qingyi shook her head, "No, you can go back early. You can come back early when school starts. You can stay at my place."
Qu Jingqiu stood by the stone pier outside the train station with her bag on her back, "Qingyi, when are you free, come to our house? Our house is relatively close and you can go there by car."
Feng Qingyi: "Okay, don't invite you two. I haven't bought a ticket now. I can't go if I want to. I'll wait until I have the opportunity to go."
Shen Hanyue looked at the time and said, "Qingyi, my time is almost up, so I will leave first. You go back and pay attention to your safety."
Qu Jingqiu: "She and I took the same car back and left!"
"Be safe on the road, and remember to send a message when you get back." Feng Qingyi said.
The two waved to her and entered the station to check in.
After seeing the two of them off, Feng Qingyi returned to the villa and found that Feng Qingci was also packing his things.
"How long are you going for?"
Feng Qingci: "The specific time has not been determined yet. Don't starve yourself to death at home alone!"
Feng Qingyi rolled her eyes, "Am I that stupid?"
"Who was so hungry that he almost fainted before?" Feng Qingci asked.
Feng Qingyi was helpless, "That happened so many years ago, how come you still remember it?"
"I'm not reminding you, if you're hungry and don't want to cook, just order takeout, or go out to eat. If that doesn't work, go directly to your boyfriend. Don't starve yourself to death at home."
Feng Qingci packed his suitcase and prepared to go out.
Feng Qingyi: "I understand, please leave quickly!"
After Feng Qingci left, Feng Qingyi decided to go to Shengjing to find Xu Linghe.
Arriving at the teahouse, Feng Qingyi asked a few people in the shop, and they all said they hadn't seen Xu Linghe for a long time.
Feng Qingyi was a little worried and ran to Wenyuan Pavilion to find Zhao Yiqing, hoping to find out some information from him.
After going there, he learned that Xu Linghe was imprisoned in the mansion by his father. After Feng Qingyi asked for the address, he went to the door of Xu's mansion.
Knocking on the door of Xu Mansion, someone soon opened the door.
"Miss, who are you looking for?" the guard at the door asked.
Feng Qingyi: "I'm looking for Xu Linghe. I'm her friend. My surname is Feng."
"Miss Feng, we heard the lady mention you. The lady is in the yard. I will take you there right now."
Feng Qingyi was taken to Xu Linghe's yard and saw Xu Linghe doing embroidery.
The threads on the embroidery frame are very messy, and the embroidered patterns are also very weird.
"Linghe, what are you embroidering?"
When Xu Linghe saw Feng Qingyi coming, he immediately threw himself into her arms.
"Qingyi, you came to see me. You don't know how miserable I was during this period. I was forced to play the piano and paint every day. My father also asked me to embroider a lotus picture. If I couldn't embroider it, I couldn't go out. "
Feng Qingyi pointed to the embroidery frame, "Is this the lotus picture you embroidered?"
Xu Linghe nodded, "I've tried my best."
"...This lotus is a bit strange." It's not a lotus at all, it looks more like irregularly shaped leaves.
Xu Linghe: "I think my father is deliberately torturing me. I have been dancing with knives and guns since I was a child. When did I embroider flowers? Isn't this making things difficult for me?"
"How about I teach you?" Although her skills are not very good, there is still no problem in embroidering lotus flowers.
Xu Linghe looked at Feng Qingyi, "Qingyi, can you still embroider?"
"I understand a little bit," Feng Qingyi said.
Xu Linghe looked around and said, "Qingyi, I really can't do it. You helped me embroider this lotus picture. I'll show it to my dad, and then I can go out and play with you."
Feng Qingyi: "This is not good! I'd rather teach you and you can embroider it yourself."
Xu Linghe: "My mother invited several embroiderers to teach me, but they didn't teach me. Qingyi, you better not bother."
"Then you find another embroidery frame and I'll help you." Feng Qingyi said.
Xu Linghe smiled and said: "Qingyi, you are so kind, thank you!"
After a period of study, Feng Qingyi has basically mastered the embroidery course. It is still very easy to embroider a lotus.
Xu Linghe stood aside and sighed: "If you were my parents' daughter, they would be very happy. You are good at playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you can also embroider. If I were a man, I would definitely marry you home and worship you."
Feng Qingyi: "How could it be possible? Even if you can't do anything, your parents will love you very much. I think you are good like this."
"You are straightforward and brave, dare to love and hate, and have strong martial arts. If I had a daughter like you, I would definitely be very happy."
Xu Linghe sat opposite Feng Qingyi, "Really? Then my parents say every day that Miss Wang next door is gentle and quiet, and a hundred of me can't match her, and they want to change their daughter."
"If you want to change, why don't you change it a long time ago? Why can you wait until now?" Feng Qingyi said with a smile.
Xu Linghe: "You are right, they are sharp-tongued but kind-hearted. They always curse and dislike me. They are more anxious than anyone else when I get hurt."
"They just like to control me every day, not allowing me to do this or that. It's so annoying. Qingyi, are your parents like this too?"
Feng Qingyi recalled and shook her head with some regret.
"My relationship with my parents is not good. They missed many important moments in my and my brother's lives. I was actually raised by my brother. They have been very busy with work and rarely have time to accompany us."
"Although we have never expressed it clearly, we will complain occasionally, but now that we have grown up, we don't care much."
"They have their choices and their own lives. We are not the most important part of their lives, but it is undeniable that they also love us, but their way is different from other parents."
Xu Linghe: "Qingyi, I'm sorry, I didn't know."
"What's there to be sorry about? Stay by my side. I'm almost done with the embroidery." Feng Qingyi said.
Xu Linghe looked at the lotus pattern that had been embroidered on the embroidery frame, "Qingyi, you are so amazing!"
"Can I just embroider the lotus leaves on the sample?" Feng Qingyi asked.
Xu Linghe nodded, "Well, when you are done, I will send it to my father, and we can go out. I have been locked up at home since I came back last time."
Feng Qingyi sped up the work, because it was not a complicated pattern, but just a lotus flower and a few leaves, Feng Qingyi finished it quickly.
Xu Linghe took the embroidery to find Master Xu, threw the embroidery to him, and left in a hurry.
Master Xu looked at the embroidery, a little bit unbelievable.
"Yesterday's embroidery was like a dog crawling, and today it is embroidered like this. Could she be an embroidery genius!"
Xu Linghe returned to the yard and pulled Feng Qingyi out of the house.
"Qingyi, don't you have to go to class recently?"
Feng Qingyi nodded, "I'm on vacation, I don't have to go to class before September."
"That's great, then can the things you mentioned before be made?" Xu Linghe asked.
Feng Qingyi: "Of course, let's go to Penglaiju first. The weather has been too hot recently. If the teahouse is too hot, no one will want to go there. We have to cool it down first."
"I see that some teahouses and pubs use ice cubes, but ice cubes are very expensive. At that time, they may not be able to make ends meet." Xu Linghe said.
Feng Qingyi smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will find a way. If it doesn't work, I can transport it from my home."
"That's good. With ice cubes, the teahouse can be cooled down, and more people will definitely come. When the time comes, we will launch some new teas, and we will definitely make a lot of money." Xu Linghe said.
Feng Qingyi: "We said 30% and 70% before. I will calculate it tonight and give you the share that should be given to you."
"I'm not short of money. Qingyi, take it yourself!" Xu Linghe said.
Feng Qingyi: "Since we are doing business together, we have to make it clear, otherwise I will be getting it for free, and you deserve it."
"Okay, I have to work hard to help you!" Xu Linghe said with a smile.
Feng Qingyi: "Don't worry, you will be busy when the time comes."
The two came to Penglaiju. There were not many people at the moment. Li Yi fanned himself with a fan, still sweating profusely.
Feng Qingyi saw this and said, "It seems that we have to put ice making on the schedule as soon as possible."
"Qingyi, can you make ice?" Xu Linghe asked.
Feng Qingyi nodded, "Yes, but we need to prepare some things. I will let Li Yi go to purchase them first. When these are ready, we will make them together."
"Can I learn it too?" Xu Linghe asked.
Feng Qingyi nodded: "Of course, it's not a rare thing."
"Qingyi, you don't know, ice cubes are expensive now!" She didn't even have a few at home.
