Hu Guilan nodded. "Okay, then I'll take your measurements now and we'll start making it tomorrow."

Then Sun Xiu also helped to measure everyone's size.

Everyone was so happy when they heard that they could get two new sets of clothes.

Li Xu glanced at Li Chen and asked, "How's it going? Was the wait worth it?"

Li Chen was very excited. "It was worth the wait. I have new clothes to wear. I am willing to wait as long as it takes."

"It's a good thing you waited, otherwise you wouldn't have had a chance to enjoy this."

The smile on Li Chen's face froze instantly. "Second brother, are you serious?"

Li Xu laughed, "What do you think?"

Li Chen: ...

Seeing him like this, Li Xu felt very happy.

Soon, Sun Xiu and the other two had finished measuring everyone's size.

Seeing everyone still immersed in joy, Li Xu clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then asked, "Are you satisfied with this surprise?"

"satisfy."

"satisfy."

After hearing everyone's answers, Li Xu smiled and said, "I have another surprise for everyone."

"ah?"

Li Mei hurriedly urged, "Xiao Xu, tell me quickly, do you have any other surprises?"

Everyone also urged him on.

Then Li Xu took out the envelope.

Everyone was stunned when they saw it.

Such a familiar thing...

Li Mei hesitated and said, "Xiao Xu, this surprise can't be about work, right?"

Li Xu shook his head. "I didn't get a job this time, but I got two bicycle tickets and a watch ticket."

Li Jiakang couldn't sit still anymore and asked excitedly, "Son, can I have my dad this time?"

Li Ping also looked excited, but did not speak.

Because he knew that he must have a part in it.

He is satisfied with any ticket.

Sun Xiu glanced at Li Jiakang but said nothing.

Li Xu responded, "Dad, there's no need to divide the two little ones this time. I won't be using the bicycle for the time being, and I already have a watch, so these tickets are for you."

Li Xu's home and workplace are not far away, so it doesn't matter whether he rides a bike or not.

You can buy it later.

Li Jiakang's mouth was almost stretched to the back of his head with laughter. "Well, well, well, Xiaoxu is really promising."

Li Xu: ...

Everyone: ...

Then several people started to distribute the tasks.

Finally, it was decided to give Li Jiakang and Li Ping bicycle tickets, and Sun Xiu and Li Mei watch tickets.

The money Li Ping had saved over the past few years was more than enough to buy a bicycle. He thanked Li Xu repeatedly, "Xiao Xu, thank you so much, brother."

Hu Guilan also echoed excitedly, "Yes, sister-in-law should thank you too."

Li Xu smiled and said, "Brother and sister-in-law, we are all family. It's too formal to say these things."

Hu Guilan expressed a few more words of thanks before stopping.

Li Jiakang was so happy that he didn't know what to say. He kept patting Li Xu's shoulders and said, "Okay, okay."

Li Xu was very confused.

In the end, Sun Xiu pulled Li Jiakang aside and the situation calmed down.

Li Mei also came over to express her gratitude to Li Xu, "Brother, thank you so much for this time."

"Okay, thank you for what? By the way, do you want me to lend you some money for the watch?"

Li Mei is still in school, so she really doesn't have money to buy a watch.

Unexpectedly, Li Mei looked surprised and asked, "Borrow?"

Li Xu looked at her in astonishment, "You don't want me to buy it for you directly?"

Li Mei looked very proud. "I don't need you to buy it for me. Mom has already said that this money is a college gift she prepared for me in advance."

Li Xu fell silent for a moment, thinking, "Just because I'm good at studying, I get this kind of preferential treatment?"

Then I thought, “What if you don’t get into college?”

"My mother said this thing will be my dowry."

Li Xu: ...

Li Xu said sourly, "Our mother is so good to you. I've never heard of a daughter's dowry being a watch."

Li Mei laughed out loud, "Who told you to be a bad student?"

Li Xu was also speechless.

After everyone returned to the room to rest.

Sun Xiu said to Li Jiakang, "Hey, don't you have a problem with Xiao Xu? Why did you accept his bicycle ticket?"

Li Jiakang said righteously, "Don't talk nonsense, I have no opinion on him."

Sun Xiu sneered, "Just now, I was only saving face for you in front of the child. You know whether you have any objections to Xiaoxu or not. Are you still unhappy that Xiaoxu didn't give you the watch ticket before?"

Li Jiakang hesitantly said, "Don't talk nonsense, go to bed early."

Seeing this, Sun Xiu didn't say anything more.

Let’s talk about Li Ping’s house.

Hu Guilan excitedly said to Li Ping, "This is great! I never thought that we would be able to buy bicycles one day."

Li Ping shook his head. "This is all thanks to Xiaoxu. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to do this. I never thought that as the eldest brother, I still need my younger brother's help."

When he said the latter part, a bitter smile appeared on Li Ping's lips.

Hu Guilan also comforted him, "Okay, Xiaoxu is your brother, we are all family. He helped you today, and who knows, you might help him in the future."

Hearing this, Li Ping immediately became excited, "That's right, as the eldest brother, I will definitely help him in the future."

Hu Guilan nodded and continued to comfort him.

She understood Li Ping's current state of mind.

It's just that he feels a little uncomfortable because he feels that as the eldest brother, he has not brought any benefits to his family, but has received a lot of benefits from his younger brother.

...

The next day, Li Xu happily went to work to collect his salary.

And Qin Hua came to Li Xu's house as usual.

I was surprised to see so many fabrics.

Hu Guilan said, "Xiaohua, please help me make clothes. I'll make a set for you two."

Qin Hua quickly waved her hands and said, "Sister-in-law, I can help you make it, but we won't take the clothes."

Nowadays, there are basically few women who don’t know this sewing skill.

"Okay, don't refuse. This is what my mother specifically asked me to do. Besides, if you don't accept it, I won't be able to ask you for help."

Qin Hua showed gratitude, but hesitated and said, "Our family has received a lot of kindness from Auntie, and it is really embarrassing to accept more."

In fact, Qin Hua was also very jealous of the clothes.

But she knew her limits and knew that Sun Xiu and the others had helped her family a lot, so she felt embarrassed to accept it.

Finally, Hu Guilan tried to persuade her several more times.

But Qin Hua still refused to accept and just helped her make clothes.

Hu Guilan had no choice.

I had no choice but to force Qin Hua to stay and wait for Sun Xiu to talk to her after get off work in the afternoon.

Sun Xiu and her friends also took leave early today just to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy watches, bicycles and other things.

He also brought back Li Mei's watch.
