After the marriage, the strong beauty became rich and busy raising children

Chapter 313 Award Ceremony

Provincial Museum.

A banner with the words "Grand Prize Ceremony" had been hung in front of the door.

In the hall of the conference center, more than a dozen rows of neatly arranged chairs have been placed, and a red carpet stretches from the entrance to the podium, appearing solemn and elegant.

Standing at the door were security guards, ticket checkers, and two beautiful receptionists in cheongsams.

People entered the venue one after another.

Guan Youshuang and the other three arrived relatively late, and when they entered, many people were already sitting in the venue.

The judges had already been sitting in the front row. They were craftsmen masters from all over the country. They all looked solemn and extremely dignified.

There were also some TV crew members carrying cameras and standing at the back of the venue.

A staff member in formal attire was standing on the podium arranging everyone's seats.

"Please take your seats according to the seat numbers on your tickets."

Guan Youshuang and her group are No. 5678 in the seventh row.

The award ceremony began, and the young host, dressed in an elegant cheongsam, walked onto the stage with a smile on her face.

Her voice was clear and pleasant, and her opening remarks were concise and passionate: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to today's Intangible Cultural Heritage Handicraft Competition Award Ceremony! This is a feast full of culture and art. Thank you all for coming!"

Then, she introduced the background of the competition in detail and invited the person in charge of the event to speak, which was nothing more than explaining the significance of the event:

"Intangible cultural heritage handicrafts are an important part of our culture. They carry the hard work and wisdom of countless craftsmen. Through this competition, we hope to enable more people to understand and inherit these precious cultural heritages."

Then several leaders came to the stage to deliver speeches.

After the fifth round of applause, the award ceremony began.

The first prize to be awarded was the third prize, and the host invited a representative of the judges to come on stage to announce the result.

The judges representative is a white-haired old man, who is said to be an expert in shadow puppetry.

He walked to the microphone tremblingly, opened the note he had prepared, and read: "The third winner is Liu Feng. His work is a shadow puppet lamp, which cleverly combines traditional shadow puppetry with modern lamps, demonstrating the innovation and inheritance of intangible cultural heritage handicrafts."

Because he has no teeth, his speech is a little unclear.

As he spoke, he took the work presented to him by the staff and demonstrated it very professionally.

The host called Liu Feng to the stage.

A middle-aged man in a suit and tie came up to the stage, tears of excitement in his eyes as he received the award.

The audience burst into applause.

Amid the flashing of cameras, Liu Feng gave his acceptance speech.

Next is the second prize.

The work is a mechanical wooden bird.

The host introduced it this way: "It is not only lifelike, but can also spread its wings and fly through mechanisms, which is breathtaking."

The judges’ representative was a master sculptor who also gave a demonstration and commented in detail on the exquisiteness of the work.

The winner was a middle-aged craftsman. He seemed a little reserved when he came on stage, but his face was full of pride and satisfaction. When he talked about the original intention of his creation, he broke away from his reservedness and spoke incessantly.

Wang Huiying was a little anxious.

Two awards have been presented, why haven’t I heard Youshuang’s name?

Just as he was thinking about it, the host raised his voice slightly: "Next is the most exciting moment."

"Let's see who wins the first prize."

Everyone was attentive.

A few minutes later, the staff presented a piece of embroidery and showed it to everyone.

"The first prize winner is an embroidery titled Suspension Bridge in the Snow. It depicts the landmark building of our White Maple City, the suspension bridge, in the snow."

"This embroidery work is not only exquisitely crafted, but also very artistically appealing, as if it brings people back to that beautiful moment on the bridge in the snow."

"Let us invite Ms. Guan Youshuang to the stage."

As Guan Youshuang stood up, the spotlight and the attention of the entire audience were focused on her.

Guan Youshuang was wearing a white cardigan jacket and a black woolen skirt today.

With long flowing hair and a bulging belly, she looks very beautiful with the glow of a soon-to-be mother.

The host asked her to give a speech accepting the award.

She walked to the microphone with a smile, her voice clear and firm: "I am very grateful to the judges and guests for their recognition of me. I hope that through this competition, more people will understand and pay attention to embroidery art, and I also hope to contribute to the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage."

As soon as she finished speaking, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

Wang Huiying's hands were numb from clapping.

Gu Yunliang handed over a piece of paper and whispered, "Youshuang's winning the award is a happy event, why are you crying?"

Wang Huiying wiped her tears and said, "I'm not crying, I'm just excited."

A respected artist presented trophies and prizes to the three of them.

Amid the music, the host concluded: "Today's award ceremony ends here, but the inheritance of intangible cultural heritage handicrafts will never stop. Thank you for your participation and support. Let us work together to protect this precious cultural heritage!"

As the ceremony came to an end, participants stood up and exchanged their thoughts with each other, and many TV reporters gathered around to interview Guan Youshuang.

At the same time, some manufacturers' representatives expressed their intention to cooperate with her, and several of them even placed orders directly.

According to the previous agreement, the organizers of the event will go to the embroidery factory to shoot in the near future, and then promote it on major TV stations.

The future of the embroidery factory is bright.

At this moment, Guan Youshuang felt that all the previous hard work was worth it.

*

When we came out of the museum, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Gu Errong looked around and asked them to wait for a moment while he went to buy something.

A few minutes later, he came back.

Holding a beautiful bouquet of hydrangeas.

"Here, it's for you."

Guan Youshuang smiled and said, "What's the meaning?"

Gu Errong scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I don't really understand. The flower shop owner said that hydrangeas represent perfection and a bright future, so I bought them."

"What about the red rose in the middle?"

"This," seeing his parents were there, Gu Errong was too embarrassed to say that he had added it, so he said, "I don't know, it was given by the boss."

Guan Youshuang glanced at him and said, "Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, do you have a day off?"

"Let it go. I'll be back tomorrow."

"How many days off? I just asked Xiaoling to prepare some chickens for me when she goes back to her parents' home." Wang Huiying felt distressed again when she saw her son was getting thinner. "Why don't you take a few days off and I'll make some chicken soup for you to nourish yourself."

"Mom, I'm busy these days and can't take a day off. I'll leave early on the 16th. You can keep the chicken. I often eat meat here."

"You lied to me again. How can you be this thin by eating meat regularly?"

Gu Errong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said helplessly: "Mom, I really didn't lie to you. All meals here can be reimbursed. I eat a lot every meal."

He touched his face again, "Have I lost weight? I don't think so."
