Chapter 294 She is Really Confident
When Xia Liang found out that Xia Jing had also started making clothes, he just smiled and didn't say much.
Ning Zhiyuan also heard it from the side: "I wanted you to take a break, now's the perfect time to take a break!"
At first, she didn't support Xia Liang making clothes. Wouldn't it be good for her to rest at home while she was pregnant? Their family wasn't that short of money.
"I know! In fact, I knew from the beginning that this job wouldn't last long, but I didn't expect that the first person who wanted to make clothes would be Xia Jing!"
In her previous life, Xia Jing didn't know how to make clothes. At that time, there was a sewing machine at home, and Xia Jing also tried to make it.
But the clothes they made are really hard to describe!
I hope she can do better now. I don’t care how good the clothes she makes are, but at least they should be wearable! Otherwise…
This was her first job, and it would be fun if the customer was not satisfied.
Xia Liang wanted to see Xia Jing's expression, but she was in the capital now, so she probably wouldn't be able to see it!
"Liangliang, don't worry too much. We are not short of money. Study hard and return to Beijing after the college entrance examination!"
Xia Liang nodded obediently. She had already finished the physical examination today. Both the adults and the children were fine. She wanted to go see the master tomorrow!
She couldn't stay in the capital for a few days. She didn't have much to do, but Ning Zhiyuan couldn't stay there. She could only stay for a week at most.
But Xia Liang didn't expect that someone would come to his door before he got up the next morning!
When the old ladies in several courtyards saw the clothes Su Yaxian and Grandma Ning were wearing yesterday, they were all attracted by them. They couldn't wait to come over and wanted Xia Liang to make a set for them.
They didn't want Xia Liang to work in vain, and promised to pay her for her labor!
Xia Tliang didn't want to do it at first, and Grandma Ning didn't have a sewing machine at home, but she couldn't stop those people from being too enthusiastic.
"I have it at home. We have never seen this style of clothes before. I have bought it in department stores before, but none of them fit me this well! Zhiyuan, please trouble your wife to make one for me!"
Xia Liang looked at the old man's expectant expression and felt a little embarrassed.
"My dear, your name is Xia Liang, right? I knew you were a sensible person. This is a little gift from grandma. Thank you for your help!"
The other old lady was even more direct. She stuffed ten yuan into Xia Liang's hand, and Xia Liang felt his hands were a little hot.
In the end, Xia Liang had no choice but to accept it. The old man handed over the cloth in his hand and even brought a tape measure.
Xia Liang was stunned. This person was so thoughtful!
But what surprised Xia Liang even more was that before she could agree, two soldiers brought the sewing machine over to her.
How could Xia Liang refuse this time?
With these two old ladies as the first, seven or eight more came to Grandma Ning's house! Xia Liang had no choice but to take them all.
Fortunately, they were making cheongsams, which is relatively simple and quick to make!
Xia Liang spent a whole day to finish the next ten pieces of clothing, and Grandma Ning and the others were all amazed.
Their grandson's wife was so fast. I thought it would take five or six days to make these ten pieces of clothing, but she finished them all in one day.
The only pity is that there is no electric iron here, so Ning Zhiyuan had to use an enamel iron to iron it in the end.
Seeing Ning Zhiyuan's extremely familiar movements, Su Yaxian and Grandma Ning were shocked.
It was obvious that he had practiced this countless times. As far as they could remember, when had Ning Zhiyuan ever done this kind of work?
Actually, things were okay at Grandma Ning's house. Ning Zhiyuan was relatively hardworking.
But in his own home, he was such a person that even the soy sauce bottle would not obey him. But after getting married, he actually had the patience to help his wife with housework. This training was really good!
The two of them felt a little sad when they saw it, but they were more relieved!
…
"Are you really done?"
It was already midnight when Xia Jing finished, and Yang Caiyun almost fell asleep. However, after Xia Jing finished, she still checked the sewing machine to make sure there was no problem before leaving with her!
Because it was already midnight and Aunt Li and the others were all asleep, the deposit could only be collected the next day!
Meng Xiaoxiao felt relieved when she knew that she had gotten her deposit back. Fortunately, nothing went wrong. If she had lost the two hundred yuan, she wouldn't know what she would do in the future!
Her health is not suitable for joining the army now, and she has no allowance, so she can only ask her parents for pocket money!
After getting the deposit, the two of them went to the town and borrowed the bicycles on the reservoir again! Surprisingly, Yang Xiaohong and Yang Caiyun also wanted to follow.
"What are you two doing?"
Xia Jing glared at them unhappily, having a feeling that nothing good would happen if these two people followed her!
"Can't we go to the supply and marketing cooperative and have a look? Does this supply and marketing cooperative belong to you and no one else can go there?"
Xia Jing was speechless. She knew that these two people were definitely there to laugh at her, but...
Thinking of the clothes she made, Xia Jing instantly became full of confidence.
What's the point of Xia Liang's clothes? What's so good about them? Only the clothes she made are real clothes, and they will definitely satisfy that woman!
Although that woman has a bad mouth, she is the easiest to deal with. As long as the clothes she makes are good and she likes them, she is the best publicity weapon.
By then, the supply and marketing cooperatives will probably ask me to take work from them.
It was already midnight when they finished last night. They asked for the deposit and left this morning. Meng Xiaoxiao didn't even get to see what the clothes Xia Jing made looked like.
Only when she saw Xia Jing so confident did she feel relieved.
Yang Xiaohong and her sister rode at a moderate pace behind. Xia Jing's physical strength was not as good as theirs, but the two of them deliberately slowed down.
"Pedal faster."
Yang Caiyun was sitting in the back, extremely anxious. Yang Xiaohong sighed:
"Sister, why are you in such a hurry? It will be useless if we go there earlier."
"Why not? We can go shopping at the supply and marketing cooperative first."
Yang Caiyun hasn't been out in town for a long time, so this is a good opportunity.
Yang Xiaohong thought so too and decided that there was no need to follow them, so she quickened her pace.
Soon, the distance between them had widened.
"Why did Sister Xia Liang ask me to come over and take a look?"
Yang Xiaohong was still a little confused. Was there something wrong with the clothes?
"you guess."
"How should I know?"
If she had known, she would have told me long ago.
"Haha, I guess the clothes are well made."
Yang Hongmei frowned, still not understanding: "But Sister Xia Liang doesn't know what the clothes made by Xia Jing are like?"
"This seems to be Xia Jing's first time making clothes. How did Sister Xia Liang know about this?"
Yang Xiaohong still didn't understand, so Yang Caiyun tapped her head and said, "Just ride your bike! I think you'll be surprised soon."
Although she and Xia Liang had not been together for a long time, she believed that Xia Liang was not someone who would talk nonsense.
She asked them to come over, so there must be something good going on.
At the very least, it will be exciting to watch.
Are the clothes made by Xia Jing not good?
Yang Caiyun thought about it and felt that it was unlikely. She saw that Xia Jing was very confident today. She looked so confident that it didn't seem like she hadn't done well.
Why?
Yang Caiyun wasn't sure either, so she could only take it one step at a time.
But she wanted to take a look at the clothes at the supply and marketing cooperative today, and then go back and try some with some old fabric.
If possible, once she has a sewing machine, she can go to other towns to take work.
However, she needs to discuss it with Xia Liang.
If Xia Liang disagrees, then forget it.
When the two of them rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative, they found that there were quite a lot of people selling cloth, more than twenty people surrounding them.
Yang Xiaohong curiously moved over to listen to what they were talking about.
"Do you think she can really do it?"
"How would anyone know? Didn't they leave a deposit? Your fabric is less than fifty dollars. If they don't come, the deposit will be yours, and you'll make two dollars."
