The Tashan Brigade was in an uproar.
The reason, of course, was that Lin Ran actually dragged a sewing machine back from the county town.
This is the first sewing machine in their brigade!
No one had the heart to work, but fortunately it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon.
Everyone gathered at the door of the Lin family, staring at the driver with fiery eyes as he carried the sewing machine off the tractor.
"Oh my, a sewing machine is so big?"
"Do you think it's worth the high price if it's not this big?"
"How much is it? I want to buy one too."
Everyone laughed.
"Is it about money? Do you have a sewing machine? Do you want to buy one?"
This person was unhappy.
"Don't you know how to do it? Didn't the captain's family get it? We can ask the captain where they got the tickets later."
"We definitely can't afford it, so we can only go along for the fun. But when did the captain's family become so well-off? They can buy a sewing machine just like that?"
"Could it be that Lin Lao San is proposing marriage? Is the bride price required by the woman?"
"If that's the case, then it makes sense. I was wondering why the captain's family suddenly bought a sewing machine."
"I don't think so. Hasn't Mr. Lin been recuperating at home recently? He just went to work yesterday. How can we talk about marriage when we're still together?"
"I don't think so. Look, when Boss Lin and Boss Lin got married, they didn't even have such a large betrothal gift. If they only prepared one for Boss Lin, Liu Ping would be fine, but Wang Zhaodi would be furious."
"That's true, but this isn't the betrothal gift for Lin Lao San. Could it be the dowry for Ran girl? Has Ran girl proposed marriage?"
"I haven't heard of this either! But considering how much the captain and his wife love their daughter, they really can do this."
Everyone was whispering to each other and discussing enthusiastically.
The Lin family paid no attention to the discussions of these people. At this moment, they were staring excitedly at the sewing machine on the ground.
This is the first big item for the Lin family!
The driver wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a breath, and then asked:
"Do you want me to carry it into the house?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you for your help!"
Lin Weiguo responded quickly.
Just kidding, he didn't even dare to touch such an expensive sewing machine, for fear that he would damage some parts with his clumsy hands.
Even the three brothers of the Lin family had the same idea.
Lin Ran couldn't help laughing when she saw him following the driver eagerly, wanting to help but not daring to touch.
But the driver couldn't laugh at all, he was almost exhausted.
The sweat on my forehead was like rain, and my face and neck were red and thick, and even the veins were bulging.
I couldn't help but blame this family in my heart for not even being able to lend a hand?
After finally carrying the sewing machine into Lin Ran's house, the driver was so angry that he didn't even want to drink a sip of water and turned around to leave.
Lin Ran didn't pay attention to these small details. Seeing the driver was about to leave, she habitually grabbed a handful of hard candy and handed it to him as a reward.
"Excuse me, Master."
The driver, who was originally puffing up his face, saw that Lin Ran was so generous and directly gave him a handful of candy. His face immediately turned from gloomy to bright and he smiled.
"Oh, comrade, you're so polite! This is what I'm supposed to do. How can I ask for anything from you?"
He was polite in words, but he was not slow in taking the candy.
I kept sighing in my heart that this family was really generous.
He has been delivering goods for the department store for many years and has come into contact with many well-off families in the county, but this is the first time he has met someone as generous as Lin Ran.
And he's actually a country bumpkin.
Look at this girl, she looks like a flower.
Judging from his looks and the way he behaves, he will definitely have a great future!
…
As soon as the driver left, the team members rushed towards the Lin family like a flood.
"Hey, Captain, why did your family suddenly buy a sewing machine? Is it a dowry for Ran Yatou? Is Ran Yatou getting married? How come we haven't heard the news?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenfang's mouth, which was grinning from ear to ear, suddenly narrowed.
"What are you all talking about? When did my Ranran get married? Can't we just buy a sewing machine for ourselves? Why do we have to talk about a dowry?
My Ranran is still young, so don't say such nonsense in front of the child, or else don't blame me for getting angry!"
Seeing that Shen Wenfang was really angry, everyone looked sad and didn't dare to say anything more.
After all, if Shen Wenfang really gets angry, he will be someone very difficult to deal with.
Everyone immediately changed the subject.
"Hey, sister-in-law, you have a sewing machine at home. Can we come over and take advantage of it in the future?"
When the others heard this, they suddenly understood and immediately followed suit.
"Yes, it just so happens that my eyesight is not so good now. It's hard for me to even thread a needle, let alone sew or mend something. If there is anything that requires sewing in the future, can I bring it to the captain's house to get it done?
I heard that all you have to do to sew clothes on that sewing machine is to pedal twice."
"So fast? If we want to make clothes in the future, can't we just take them to the captain's house to be made? If we make them slowly ourselves, it will take two or three days to sew a piece of clothing.
If we can just do it at the captain's house, how much effort would that save us?"
"That's right, we will be able to relax a lot from now on!"
After saying that, everyone stared at Lin Weiguo and Shen Wenfang eagerly.
Lin Weiguo and Shen Wenfang's faces had turned black.
They just bought a sewing machine and haven’t even used it yet, but these people are already thinking about it?
If they agreed, wouldn't these people come to borrow sewing machines every few days?
Then will their family ever have peace?
Besides, no matter how durable a sewing machine is, it can’t withstand so many people using it, right?
They are not the ones who get taken advantage of, so how come the sewing machine they bought at such a high price ends up being sold cheaply to others?
I just thought so in my heart, but it was difficult to say no out loud.
After all, we are all from the same village, and we borrow things from each other from time to time. It is a very normal thing.
In addition, Lin Weiguo is the team leader. If they refuse directly, they are worried that people will say that their family is unkind.
They may even feel great just because they bought a sewing machine and become arrogant.
Not even borrowing it.
Lin Ran shared their concerns, but she was not reluctant to part with her sewing machine.
The main reason is that she has her own secret, and her family's conditions will only get better and better in the future. Whether it is food or other things, the family will definitely have a lot of additions.
So if we allow those who want to borrow sewing machines to come over, there will be so many people around every day and it’s estimated that nothing can be hidden.
So Lin Ran spoke.
