Qiao Shu slapped a large area of soap on his clothes, then imitated Chen Xiaoyan and shook them in the river to indicate that he was done washing.
"Shushu, are you done washing?"
Chen Xiaoyan looked at Qiao Shu washing clothes and said that she couldn't understand it. How could the clothes be clean if it was so easy to wash?
Qiao Shu nodded doubtfully: "Yes, isn't this how you all wash?"
She saw Chen Xiaoyan and some other young sisters-in-law washing like this.
"Qiao Zhiqing, can you really wash clothes clean like this?"
Mrs. Fu on the side spoke.
The last time my mother-in-law came back, she said that the new educated young woman Qiao was pitiful. She was pretty and fair-skinned, but many people bullied her.
Since they came from a big city, they couldn't learn the country people's way of not caring about face. They still spoke tactfully and were always bullied. So they tried to help as much as they could.
Qiao Shu had never thought that with her reputation in the village, someone would actually be willing to talk to her. She smiled at Mrs. Fu, her eyes narrowed like crescents, and asked sweetly, "Aunt Fu, am I not washing well?"
"No... I just think washing clothes this way isn't clean... it's such a waste."
Mrs. Fu looked into Qiao Shu's eyes and couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt in her heart, but she couldn't say the words.
What's wrong with such a beautiful girl not knowing how to wash clothes? She is so beautiful, she should be pampered more.
If this were her daughter, she would not want her to work.
"It's okay, Mrs. Fu. I don't know how to wash clothes. I heard that you are particularly good at doing housework. I just happened to meet you and wanted to ask you for advice."
She smiled sweetly and spoke very politely, which made Mrs. Fu smile from ear to ear.
"I'm telling you, you should rub the clothes when you wash them, especially the dirty ones. People like us who work hard always get their clothes extremely dirty, especially white clothes like yours. If you don't rub them clean properly, you won't be able to wear them out next time."
Seeing Qiao Shu asking for advice so humbly, Mrs. Fu put down the basin of clothes in her hand, and walked over to her to teach her without rushing back.
Seeing that she hadn't grasped the key points for a long time, the impatient Mrs. Fu directly picked up the white Dacron T-shirt that Qiao Shu had placed in the basin and waved it in front of her: "Let me teach you, the most basic step of this kind of laundry is to hang the clothes outside first. When the clothes are soaked with water, you can put soap on the dirty parts of the clothes and rub them carefully."
Mrs. Fu was stunned for a moment when she saw the soap that Qiao Shu had placed on the ground.
I really didn't expect that in this day and age, there are people who use soap to wash clothes.
Their family is relatively well-off in the village. The mother-in-law is the head of the household. Although they don't eat well every day, at least they have enough food and clothing. However, they hesitate for a long time before buying a bar of soap.
But Qiao, the educated youth from the city, uses soap to wash clothes. Her husband said that this soap costs four or five yuan in the city, which is very expensive.
This Qiao Zhiqing is indeed an educated youth from a big city. I heard that he even finished high school and is very much loved by his family. If it weren't for the policy requirements, he would never have gone to the countryside.
Mrs. Fu's opinion of Qiao Shu changed again and again in her heart, but she still didn't say anything.
This is someone else's private matter. No matter how rich their family is, it has nothing to do with you. Just do your own thing.
