Three years later, when his daughter Nan Nan turned four years old, the business of Shen Ling's jade carving shop was so good that the shop now employs two jade carvers. Shen Ling is only responsible for getting good jade and Hetian jade from Yunnan and Xinjiang.

There were two jade carving masters sitting in town, Nan Nan went to kindergarten again, and Shen Ling used his free time to improve his jade carving skills.

It just so happens that the jade carving industry is going to hold a competition recently, when ten representative works will be selected. Shen Ling felt that he had been engaged in jade carving for several years, so he could give it a try to see how well he was.

She has been to Yunnan and Xinjiang two or three times a year in the past few years, and she has a lot of good materials on hand. This time, for the game, Shen Ling took out a piece of material about twenty centimeters high from the space, intending to use it to make an emerald flower vase.

The head of the material was very good, mainly light green and emerald green. Shen Ling first drew a sketch on paper and determined the approximate pattern before he started carving.

Shen Ling attaches great importance to this competition, so the selection of patterns is more complicated, and carving requires a lot of patience.

On this day, she completed the carving of the lotus leaf part and planned to rest for a while, but she did not expect that after she came out of the room, she unexpectedly saw Zhou Jin sitting on the sofa in the living room.

Shen Ling was a little surprised. It was just over ten o'clock at this time, and Zhou Jin should be in the store, so he would come back so well.

Before Shen Ling asked her doubts, Zhou Jin poured herself a glass of water, "Xu Bing, are you finished?"

When Shen Ling heard Xu Bing's name, she couldn't help but startled. Zhou Jin would only call her that when discussing important things. She couldn't help sitting over and said, "Zhou Jin, what's the matter with you, what's the matter?"

Zhou Jin drank a few sips of water and moistened his throat and said, "That employee in my shop, come forward and help me to quit her!"

Shen Ling was startled again. The employee in Zhou Jin’s store was recruited from the talent market last year. She was a young and beautiful girl who had just graduated from university. Because her mouth was sweet and talkative, she just met Zhou Jin’s requirements. Stayed.

Now that Zhou Jin said this, Shen Ling knew what was wrong with the little girl, but she didn't ask too much, and happily responded, turned around and went to the bedroom to change her clothes.

When she came out to change clothes, Zhou Jin had returned to normal and was sitting in the study reading a book. When Shen Ling saw this, he didn't bother him, and went straight to the antique shop.

The antique shop and the jade carving shop are both in the antique city. Shen Ling took this opportunity to go around the shop. It seemed that there was no problem in the shop and planned to leave. Suddenly remembering something, he called Zhao Meng over and asked, "You Have you helped out on the third floor in a few days?"

Zhou Jin’s antique shop is on the third floor. Sometimes people need to take a look at it temporarily and they will ask Zhao Meng to go up and help.

Zhao Meng said: "Since that Li Juan came, I rarely go there." Li Juan is the little girl that Zhou Jin recruited.

Shen Ling smiled casually: "It's really different to say that there is a beautiful girl in the store. Zhou Jin said that with Li Juan, the business in the store has improved a lot."

Zhao Meng immediately glanced at Shen Ling, with some disapproval in his tone, "Boss, tell you the truth. If we invite such a girl in our shop, there will be no problem, but if the boss is young and rich, then It wouldn’t be nice to have a little girl in the store."

Shen Ling got the answer he wanted, so he didn't say more, and went straight to the third floor.

Many shopkeepers who opened the shop on the third floor knew Lao Xu and Zhou Jin, and naturally also knew Shen Ling. Shen Ling greeted him all the way and walked to the front of the shop. He saw Li Juan standing in front of the Bogu shelf, scrubbing the dust on the antiques.

Hearing the movement, Li Juan immediately turned her head, but when she found that the person who came in was Shen Ling, there was a trace of guilty conscience on Li Juan's face. Shen Ling saw her expression and guessed what she had done.

Shen Ling pulled a chair away and sat at the table, and said concisely: "Zhou Jin asked me to send you away. From tomorrow on, you won't use it. We will pay you this month's salary. Now you can clean up and leave. "

Li Juan's tears welled up immediately. She tried her best to open her eyes and glanced at Shen Ling, and saw the woman sitting across from her wearing a clothing that she couldn't call her brand. She had an elegant and outstanding temperament. With such a wife, it's no wonder that Zhou Jin would disdain her kindness.

But she didn't believe that the woman in front of her would continue to be so confident.

Li Juan wiped away her tears and glanced at Shen Ling stubbornly, "I was wrong when I seduce your husband today, but I don't believe you will be proud of you all the time. I don't believe your husband will keep guarding you, one day sooner or later. , He will get tired of you."

Shen Ling raised her brows, she slowly stood up, walked a few steps to Li Juan, and then quickly slapped her.

"I thought you were young, even if you did something wrong, you could be forgiven. I didn't expect to be a vicious woman who could not see others well. I counted three times, and immediately got off."

After dealing with Li Juan's affairs, when Shen Ling returned home, he saw Zhou Jin still sitting in the study and reading. She couldn't help but walked up to him and said, "Zhou Jin, you won't be taken away by other women in the future?"

Zhou Jin closed the book, "Why, is it irritated?"

Shen Ling sat on the chair opposite him, "I really didn't expect it. I was less than thirty-five, someone would pry the corner of the wall."

Zhou Jin said, "In order to put an end to today's things, let's hire a young man in the store in the future!"

Shen Ling's heart moved slightly, "Zhou Jin, what did Li Juan do to you that made you react so much?"

Zhou Jin glared at her, "No matter what she does, it is your loss. Are you still in the mood for gloating?"

Shen Ling couldn't help but smiled: "I'm just curious. Seeing her so guilty and seeing you so excited, she must have done too much!"

Zhou Jin was too lazy to pay attention to her, and continued to pick up the book and read. Shen Ling really wanted to know what happened between them, soaked up and down, and finally took out the whole story from Zhou Jin's mouth.

It turned out that as soon as Zhou Jin arrived in the store today, Li Juan asked Zhou Jin to drop her eye drops because of her eye pain. Zhou Jin originally refused to agree, but later saw that Li Juan was in pain, so he tried to stand half a metre away from her and give her eye drops.

Unexpectedly, Li Juan took this opportunity to hug Zhou Jin tightly and talked about her love.

After Zhou Jin talked about the whole thing, Shen Ling glanced at him up and down and said: "Zhou Jin, let me give you a suggestion! You can wear a little sloppy and rustic hairstyle in the future... ..." Before she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing.

Zhou Jin gave her a cold look, "Why don't you tell me to take a bath only once a month?"

Shen Ling smiled and said: "This is a good suggestion. You can directly smoke away those mad bees and butterflies." She glanced at Zhou Jin again and sighed, "If only you look ugly."

When Zhou Jin was dressed in Shen Ling, he was only considered elegant. Now he is a little older, probably because of his successful career and happy family, so his temperament is becoming more and more outstanding, especially his more refined temperament. obvious.

As a woman, Shen Ling naturally knew how attractive this would be to the little girls. Otherwise, nothing like Li Juan would happen.

The joke was a joke. After the husband and wife talked and laughed, Shen Ling gave Zhou Jin a suggestion, so that he could show a look like a stranger to women of all ages, especially young women. Anyway, most of the customers in Zhoujin's store are male customers, so don't be afraid that offending women will affect your business.

After this happened, Shen Ling did not deliberately supervise Zhou Jin or raise his vigilance based on previous experience. This kind of thing, to put it bluntly, is all in Zhou Jin himself. If he didn't have that thought, even if the gods descended from the earth, he would not be able to shake his determination. But if he had a little thought, a Li Juan could shake him.

Shen Ling still believed in Zhou Jin. He was a relatively old-fashioned person, and his parents were teachers. He was taught what to do and not to do since he was a child, so the probability of cheating is still very small.

After half a month, when the husband and wife had forgotten about the incident, the jade sculpture by Shen Ling was also completed.

At the same time, the jade carving contest kicked off in a certain city in the south, and Shen Ling left Zhou Jin and his daughter, and went to that southern city with Xu and his mother.

At the exchange meeting before the start of the competition, Shen Ling met many jade carvers, and also met Gao Rui who came to participate in the competition, the jade carver who told her about the Xinjiang jade mine.

The jade carving that Gao Rui used to participate in the competition this time is a very auspicious rockery work, with objects such as Ganoderma lucidum and gourds carved on it. The carvings are lifelike, but scattered.

Compared with Gao Rui's rockery work, Shen Ling's flower arrangement is much more complicated. The flower arrangement that is more than 20 centimeters high is carved with lotus leaves, lotus, koi and frogs. In addition to light green and emerald green, there are two colors of pink and yellow on the material.

Shen Ling used the pink part to carve into lotus, the yellow part was carve into koi, the light green part was all carved into lotus leaf, as for the frog, he used emerald green material. The effect of the whole flower cut is exceptionally good, the color is distinct, and the carving craftsmanship is old, which aroused Gao Rui's great admiration.

He felt that if there were no accidents, Shen Ling's work would surely be in the top ten.

The facts are not much different from what he expected.

Because of this competition, there is a master's apprentice to participate, and there are two well-known jade carving masters. So Shen Ling's work finally won a fourth place. Shen Ling was already satisfied with this. After all, she was still young, and she would have the opportunity to surpass her predecessors in the future.

On the way back home by plane, Shen Ling looked at the rolling clouds outside the plane and thought to herself, she was also successful in this aspect of her career! In terms of family, there is a husband like Zhou Jin, a well-behaved and smart daughter, and the parents and in-laws are more caring. This kind of life can be considered a complete life!
