Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Asking for Help

The food on the train was pretty good at this time, with both meat and vegetables available. The siblings didn’t mistreat themselves. If they were hungry, in addition to the eggs prepared by Granny Lu, they would buy a box meal on the train, which was very filling,

In her free time, Qin Xiangnuan submerged her mind into the system and continued to learn embroidery.

The embroidery she practiced was different from other embroidery schools. It was a comprehensive style of needlework. It can be said that whether it’s the Four Major Embroidery like Suzhou Embroidery, Hunan Xiangxiu, Sichuan Shu Embroidery, Guangdong Embroidery, or Beijing embroidery, Lu Embroidery, Bian Embroidery, Ou Embroidery, Hangzhou Embroidery, Han Embroidery, and Min Embroidery, elements from each could be seen in her needlework,

Her embroidery style was not bound by any single school; it was taught by the system. The system forced all these regional embroidery techniques upon her, regardless of her willingness or capability. The tasks set by the system had to be completed, or else she couldn’t unlock the next course.

Initially, to practice these techniques, Qin Xiangnuan had to spend at least three hours a day inside the system. And three hours outside equated to thirty hours inside. Every day, for more than thirty hours, she didn’t know how she managed to endure it.

Now it was better. She had learned the most difficult part. Although she couldn’t yet fully master and integrate the needlework techniques, it wouldn’t be too difficult for her to embroider a Qingming River Painting now. She was considering finding an actual master to learn from, as there was still a difference between what was taught by the system and by a real master.

She truly felt that time passed very slowly. The two days and two nights on the train felt like over twenty days. In fact, it was almost that long because she spent most of her time immersed in the system, where she finished a simple peony embroidery. She didn’t even have the chance to admire it before the system confiscated it and gave her twenty Gold Coins. All her efforts over so many days were only worth twenty Gold Coins. This was equal to four months of her milk money, but she had spent a whole month embroidering that peony picture.

She took her cup and bought some milk from her space, pouring it into the cup. The milk was hot when it came out, which was nice as it saved her the trouble of having to warm it up.

Finally, the train arrived at the station. Even though they had a sleeper berth, Qin Xiangnuan still felt like her bones were falling apart. They first found a hotel to stay in.

The hotel was rather small and not like those multi-star hotels from the future. There wasn’t a TV or anything, just a bed. They took two single rooms and decided to rest here for one night. Only then did Qin Xiangnuan remember that Jian Zhiqing was originally from the Capital City.

Being unfamiliar with the city and both of them being young, finding the right place was indeed difficult.

She searched through her belongings for a while before finding a small piece of paper with a phone number written on it.

She jumped off the bed, borrowed the hotel’s public phone, and after hesitating, she finally dialed the number.

"Hello..." A woman’s voice came from the other side. Qin Xiangnuan bit her lip, and after a second "hello," she asked softly, "Hello, I am looking for Jian Zhiqing."

"Zhiqing, come take the phone." The woman put down the receiver and seemed to call out Jian Zhiqing’s name.
