Chapter 31 Sewing Machine
“Cough cough cough~”
A violent coughing sound was heard, and Lin Anan hurriedly turned around and walked to the side, her waist bent over due to coughing.
Chu Minglan was startled by Lin Anan's sudden cough, and quickly reached out to help her, her face full of worry, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? Are you... are you scared by the money? I was also scared at first!"
Mother Lin also looked at Lin Anan anxiously and hurried forward to calm her down, "Are you tired? Let's go in first. Standing at the door and being blown by the wind will only make things worse."
Lin Anan waved her hands and coughed for a long time before she recovered. She cleared her throat and said, "I'm fine. I was just choked by the cold wind."
In fact, she knew in her heart that it was because her health was too poor. She was tired after walking for just a short while, and she was frightened by the sudden money, so she coughed like this.
Mother Lin was still worried, so she reached out and touched Lin Anan's forehead, "Are you really okay? Don't be so stubborn. If you feel uncomfortable, we have to go to the hospital right away. We can't delay it."
Lin Anan smiled and nodded, "It's really okay, Mom, don't worry. By the way, Xiaolan, what's going on with the money and the tickets?"
Another twenty great solidarity cards!
Is Chu Mingzhou so rich?
Why did he take so much money just to buy her a few clothes? And he knew she still had more than 200 yuan in her hand.
Lin Anan was shocked when she added up all these. The inexplicable increase in property was over 400 yuan, which was more than a year's salary for an ordinary person...
"Sister-in-law, my brother told you to buy new clothes. It's Chinese New Year soon. He told you to take the money and tickets and pick out something nice and thick."
Lin Anan was stunned when she looked at the money in her hand.
Mother Lin smiled, "An An, Ming Zhou is worried about you, just take it and pick out a few clothes you like. You need to take good care of your body. It will be good for your condition if you wear warm and comfortable clothes."
Lin's mother has always calculated money very clearly, and she didn't shirk her responsibility this time?
Chu Minglan also came up with a smile, pointed at the Xiguan Department Store, and agreed: "Yes, sister-in-law, just listen to your brother! Let's go in and have a look. The clothes in this department store are very beautiful. Let's go to the department store first, and then go to the farmers' market store."
Lin Anan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Well, since it's his intention, I'll accept it."
Lin Anan changed her mind. She was not thinking about buying new clothes, but about looking at a sewing machine.
Among the tickets Chu Mingzhou gave me last time, there was a sewing ticket.
Sewing machines in this era are great things. Not only are they large items, they are also the most practical.
"Walk."
If I buy a sewing machine, it will be much more convenient to do sewing and mending at home.
In addition to revising manuscripts, you can also try to make some small things. Not to mention selling them, they can be of great use just in terms of personal connections!
Several people walked into the Xiguan Department Store, which was bustling with people coming and going.
All that catches your eye are counter-style items, with products almost all displayed on rows of counters and display racks.
Lin Anan was surprised to see that this department store was like an enlarged version of a supply and marketing cooperative. Although the items were divided into different categories, it was also like a large grocery store that had everything.
On the left hand side of the entrance is the clothing area. The colors here are dark and the styles are simple, but compared to other places, the products sold are quite rich.
"Mom, wait."
Lin Anan fell in love with a cotton-padded jacket with buttons at first sight. The style was fashionable and it looked particularly warm.
There is also a black wool coat, which is very thick and long.
"Mom, look at this cotton-padded jacket, it's so pretty, it's perfect for you to wear during the Chinese New Year! And this coat is for my dad, he's tall, he'll look good in a long coat..."
Mother Lin looked in the direction Lin An'an pointed, and her eyes lit up. "Oh, An'an, you have a good eye. This cotton-padded jacket is really novel. I haven't worn anything like it before! And that coat, your dad will definitely look smart in it. It looks thick and warm. He will definitely look decent in it when he visits relatives during the New Year."
Lin Anan smiled and nodded, then looked at a dark red cotton jacket next to her, "This one would also look good on Xiaolan."
Chu Minglan's smile froze on her face, her eyes full of disbelief, "Sister-in-law, I don't want it, I have clothes."
"As for Mingzhou..."
Lin Anan felt that Chu Mingzhou didn't need it, and she could do it for him herself when the time came.
In her previous life, Lin Anan’s best friend was a fashion designer. She had some exposure to this industry. Although she didn’t have the highly technical skills, she had no problem making a few pieces of clothing with her bare hands.
And her mind is filled with all kinds of popular styles in later generations!
Lin Anan was just thinking about asking someone if these three pieces were available in different sizes and prices. If they were suitable, she would buy them.
Before she could speak, Chu Minglan said she didn't want anything at all, and if Lin Anan insisted on buying it, she would leave.
Lin Anan had no choice but to give up and decide to make two for the little girl when the time comes.
"Comrade, could you please help us get some clothes, this buttoned cotton jacket and that black woolen coat? I want to see if they are the right size."
When the salesperson heard Lin Anan's call, he responded and immediately turned around to take down the clothes from the shelf. He handed them to Lin Anan with a neat movement and greeted her warmly, "Comrade, these two clothes are of top quality. Please check if the sizes are suitable."
"Thanks."
Mother Lin gently shook open the clothes and tried them on her body. "This size is just right. It's like it was made according to my measurements. It's really good."
Lin Anan looked at her mother's happy expression and felt happy in her heart, "Comrade, how much are these two?"
"The jacket is 40 yuan plus eight feet of cloth coupons, and the overcoat is 55 yuan plus ten feet of cloth coupons."
Mother Lin paused, "Why is it so expensive?"
