Origin Story

江南小镇，烟雨蒙蒙。一位名叫素月的女子撑着一把油纸伞，沿着青石板路缓缓而行。她身着素雅的衣裙，乌黑的长发在雨雾中若隐若现。她步履轻盈，举手投足间都散发着一种独特的韵味，袅袅婷婷，宛如一幅水墨画卷中走出的仕女。素月是镇上有名的绣娘，她绣出的花鸟图案栩栩如生，灵动飘逸。她每日在绣楼里静静地绣着，只有雨天，她才会撑着伞出来走走，感受着江南烟雨的温柔。这天，她走到桥边，看见一位白发苍苍的老者在垂钓。老者见她走过，便抬起头，慈祥地微笑着。素月也对他回以微笑，然后继续前行。她的身影渐渐消失在迷蒙的雨雾中，只留下那袅袅婷婷的背影，令人久久回味。

In a small town in southern China, a misty rain fell. A woman named Suyue, holding an oil-paper umbrella, walked slowly along a cobblestone path. She wore a simple dress, her long black hair hidden in the mist and rain. Her steps were light, every move exuded a unique charm, graceful and elegant, like a court lady from a watercolor painting. Suyue was a famous embroiderer in the town, her embroidered flowers and birds were vivid and graceful. Every day she quietly embroidered in her embroidery building. Only on rainy days would she go out with an umbrella to feel the gentle rain of southern China. That day, she walked to the bridge and saw an old man with white hair fishing. The old man, seeing her pass, raised his head and smiled kindly. Suyue smiled back at him, and then continued on her way. Her figure gradually disappeared into the mist and rain, leaving only that graceful silhouette, which remained in the memory for a long time.
