Chapter 49 Knitting a Sweater
Ning Lao Da thought that there were still 90 kilograms of pork left and he had made an appointment with Aunt Li, so he also got up early. There were only 90 kilograms. In fact, the three brothers could go together to deliver it, but thinking of Li Dachuan who had just separated from the family, the brothers and sisters only had a hard quilt of unknown color.
There was also a pig that was killed with Li Dachuan. If it weren't for Li Dachuan and his three brothers, it would have been a lot of trouble. Ning Jing went to town for the past two days and didn't want to go again because she had more important things to do.
I bought the fabric and yarn yesterday. She can’t make clothes or quilts yet, but she can knit a sweater first!
Similarly, Li Dachuan did not let Li Xiaomei go with him, but asked Li Xiaomei to come to Ning's house.
Before leaving, Boss Ning took Ning Xiaosan with him and asked Ning Xiaoer to stay at home to look after his sister and Li Xiaomei.
Li Xiaomei finished her meal at home before coming over and saw Ning Jing knitting a sweater.
Li Xiaomei remembered the five balls of wool her brother bought and asked to learn how to knit a sweater from Ning Jing.
Ningjing was naturally happy. Li Xiaomei went home and brought some wool. Li Dachuan only bought red wool. Li Xiaomei saw that Ningjing had black, blue and maroon wool, and thought it would be nice if her brother could have a sweater, so she proposed to exchange the colors of the sweaters with Ningjing.
Ning Laoda bought a pound of red wool, and Ning Jing also had some. But when she saw the desire in Li Xiaomei's eyes, she immediately understood that Li Dachuan had only bought red wool yesterday, and Xiaomei wanted to knit a sweater for Dachuanzi.
Ning Jing smiled and said, "Okay, but when I went to the warehouse yesterday, Aunt Li said that red wool costs one yuan per liang, and a ball like this weighs two liang~"
Li Xiaomei didn't hear what was said afterwards. She only heard Ning Jing say that one tael of wool cost one yuan. This ball was two taels, so five balls would be ten taels, which would cost ten yuan. Ten yuan, when did they get so much money?
He even bought her some wool. What a brother!
No wonder the second aunt wanted to let everyone know when she made a sweater collar for Li Baogen. Now she has so much wool.
Ning Jing saw that Li Xiaomei was distracted and did not interrupt her. She knew that Li Xiaomei was sighing. When Li Xiaomei came back to her senses, she said, "Red yarn is one yuan per two taels, but this blue, black and maroon yarn is only sixty cents per two taels. How do you want to exchange it?"
Little sister Li didn't know how to change, so she asked Ning Jing: "Jing Jing, how much wool do I need to knit a sweater for my brother?"
Ning Jing thought about the fact that Dachuanzi's body shape was similar to Ning Xiaosan's, so she said directly: "If I knit a sweater for your brother, it will probably take three to six taels."
Li Xiaomei said without thinking: "Then I will change it to six taels."
"What color do you want to change it to?"
Li Xiaomei thinks black looks good, blue looks energetic, and maroon looks good too. It would be great if she could change all of them.
Ning Jing looked at Li Xiaomei, who couldn't take her eyes off the three kinds of wool, and said directly: "Or you can just take one of each color. It will look good if you knit all three colors together."
"Uh-huh!"
Li Xiaomei quickly nodded in agreement. Yes, why didn’t she think of it!
Ning Jing agreed and explained to Li Xiaomei, "If I exchange it for six taels, it would cost three dollars and sixty cents if I buy it with money. Two balls of red wool weigh four taels, which would cost four dollars if I buy it with money. Little sister, if you give me two balls of red wool, I will also need to give you forty cents. This is the fairest way."
Li Xiaomei didn't know the price and followed Ning Jing's idea.
Is there anyone who can knit a sweater?
emmmm I can't, I can only knit a scarf
