Chapter 10: Official Employment
An An Tian was wearing a corduroy lake blue hooded sweatshirt with the outline of George the Pig embroidered on the front. The child was fair and round, and looked even more cute in the sweatshirt.
"Oh, I didn't expect you to have such a skill. Just now I wanted to ask you where An An bought this dress. I also want to buy one for my granddaughter. I didn't expect you to make it yourself. You are so thoughtful."
Bai Ruoqiao smiled and said, "Why buy it? I'll make you a set."
"How can that be possible? Will the factory sell this kind of clothes in the future?"
“There will be similar ones.”
"Well, I'll wait for the factory to produce new clothes. I'd like to take a look at the one you're wearing."
Because they were moving tomorrow, Bai Ruoqiao wore more casual sporty style.
It's just a grey long-sleeved pullover and a pair of tapered casual pants.
This outfit might make you look a little strange walking among a group of people wearing wide-leg pants.
However, her clothes are made very loose, so it won't look out of place unless you pay special attention to it.
"Do you really think so? I'm afraid that people won't be able to accept it when I make it."
Mrs. Xie shook her head quickly, "No, I think it's pretty good anyway, and it's comfortable to look at. I'll buy a set for my eldest sister when it comes out."
Bai Ruoqiao smiled, "Speaking of which, I have a coat here, please wait a moment."
As she said this, she went back into the house and soon came out with a coat.
This is a mid-length collarless windbreaker made of three layers of cotton and one layer of corduroy.
At first glance, it looks similar to the mid-length jackets currently on the market, but it is more slim-fitting and comes with the same belt.
"This is a sample dress I made when I went to the factory for an interview. Do you think it's suitable for me, Sister?"
Old Mrs. Xie stood up and looked at the clothes, touching them again and again, "Take a look at this dress, my eldest sister should like it. She works at the Provincial Women's Federation. This dress looks elegant and the size is right for her. How much is this dress? I'll buy it from you."
Bai Ruoqiao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "You have made another ideological mistake."
Mrs. Xie was stunned for a moment, and then patted her head unintentionally, "Oh, look at my brain."
"It's free. I made this dress for the interview. It's a little too big for me to wear. It would be a waste to leave it there. Just take it."
"That won't do. No merit, no reward. How about this, I'll give you something in exchange."
Bai Ruoqiao thought about it and did not refuse, "That's fine, but don't take anything expensive. These fabrics were all given by the textile factory. I just put my hands on them. It's really not worth anything."
"Don't be so modest. I think this dress can be sold for 70 or 80 yuan in a department store."
Bai Ruoqiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Hey, don't exchange it at this price, otherwise I wouldn't dare to exchange it with you. How about this, you just take some snacks you made."
"Is that so..." Old Mrs. Xie rolled her eyes and agreed quickly, "Alright, then I'll send it to you. You guys will be home tomorrow, right?"
Bai Ruoqiao guessed what she was thinking when he saw her expression, and said helplessly, "Yes, please don't make any expensive food, and don't make too much, or it will be wasted if we can't finish it."
Old Mrs. Xie smiled and liked Bai Ruoqiao more and more. "I know." She felt sorry again that she got married so soon.
Old Mrs. Xie didn't stay long because An An started to feel sleepy.
After everyone left, Bai Ruoqiao took An An to take a nap, and then started writing the report.
The drafts are all in my mind and I don’t need to think about them for too long.
However, this time I have to redraw a lot of diagrams and clothing line drawings, which will take some time.
Three days later, Bai Ruoqiao went to the textile factory to report as promised.
