Chapter 362 Girls should be nice to themselves
The aunt and niece exchanged glances and shook their heads.
Mother Wen thought for a moment and asked, "How about pulling some cloth?"
"What are you pulling the cloth for?"
"Your grandpa and his family don't have small jackets. We need to make one for each of them. Otherwise, it will be too cold to wear a single layer when the temperature drops, and too hot to wear a large cotton-padded jacket."
"pull."
Yi Chichi made the final decision. After finishing her meal, she went to get money, cloth, and cotton tickets for her. "Mom, you can decide. We are not short of money. I will also give you a whole set of clothes. I will embroider some inconspicuous flowers on it."
Wen's mother originally wanted to say that she had clothes to wear, but when she heard that she wanted to embroider flowers until her mouth was rejected, she changed her tone to, "Are you really embroidering?"
"Real embroidery, I'll embroider it for you like the pattern on the Wenshi shirt. I guarantee that no one can tell it's the original pattern on the fabric."
This is possible.
Wen's mother was delighted, but pretended to be reserved and asked, "Can you handle it?"
"It won't take much time if the pattern isn't too complicated."
Knowing her mother-in-law's temperament, Yi Chichi put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I won't delay my work for you. Money is still very important."
That's true.
So, Wen's mother was very happy and brought back the cloth and cotton the next day.
At that time, Yi Chichi was squatting in the team doctor's office teaching Lang Hong how to prepare medicinal herbs. Wang Nan came over to get the medicine. After getting it, she didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, she sat down and poured herself a glass of water. After taking a sip, she slowly said, "Chi, your mother-in-law bought a lot of fabric and cotton today."
Yi Chi Chi didn't even raise her head, "I asked her to buy it. She has no jacket to wear."
Lang Hong, who was twisting the medicine with a grunt, raised her head and asked, "Xiaoao?"
"Yes, Xiaoao."
Knowing that she was new and didn't know much about the weather in Northeast China, Yi Chichi explained, "The temperature difference between morning and evening will start to widen in September. In mid-to-late September, you'll need to wear a light jacket at night."
Lang Hong got anxious when she heard this, "What should I do if I don't have a little jacket?"
Originally, the girl spoke the soft Wu dialect, but now her accent has been completely distorted, and she speaks Mandarin with a strong lingering accent.
Paired with her voice, the contrast is simply amazing.
Wang Nan couldn't help laughing, "A sweater and a thick coat would be fine too."
Lang Hong felt relieved. She already had a sweater and a thick coat.
However, "I think I still need to make a small jacket just in case."
"You can make it if you have cloth and cotton tickets."
"I have."
When she left home, her parents prepared a lot of tickets for her, and they also sent her national tickets every month, so she was never short of money or tickets.
That is, “What should I do if I don’t know how to make a small jacket?”
"Go find Aunt Hua. She makes good jackets and the price is not high. One jacket costs about two or three dollars."
That's not high indeed.
"Nannan, are you going to the supply and marketing cooperative?"
"We have to go before the autumn harvest begins and buy some meat. Without oil and water, we won't have the energy to work."
Wang Nan looked at Yi Chichi and asked, "Will you go then?"
"It depends."
There is nothing missing at home, and Wen's mother will make up for whatever is lacking as soon as possible. To be honest, the things sold in the supply and marketing cooperative... are not very attractive to her.
You can go or not.
"When will you and Walter White finally decide?"
Yi Chichi was almost driven crazy by the thought of Wang Nan and Bai Chen. They had shown signs of a possible relationship last winter, but it has been dragging on until now and nothing has been finalized.
She looked at Wang Nan without blinking, and was surprised to find that two blushes slowly appeared on her face, and her eyes also turned red. After a brief moment of shock, shyness emerged, followed by undisguised joy.
"Old Bai said we'll get the wine and the license after the autumn harvest."
Then, she asked in a consulting tone, "Also, Lao Bai wants to move out."
"Build your own house?"
Yi Chichi's first reaction was this: the conditions of the Youth League Home were not bad. It could be said that the Youth League Home in Kaoshantun was better than the houses of all the villagers in the brigade headquarters.
But there are many people living in the Youth League Home. Before, when there were fewer people, there were still a few empty rooms, but now they are all full.
After Wang Nan and Bai Chen were to marry and become a legal couple, it was indeed quite inconvenient for them to live in the Youth League Home.
"No, we want to rent Xiaocao's house."
Wang Nan spoke frankly, "The main reason is that we both don't have much money, and building a house is too expensive."
"Who is Xiaocao?"
The girl Lang Hong turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside, and because Yi Chichi gave her the position of medical worker, her daily routine became a straight line between the Youth League Home, the team doctor's office, and the Youth League Home.
Occasionally I would go out to the fields and follow Uncle Yaozi to see patients, but not often.
Since she didn't recognize all the people in the village, she really didn't know Liu Xiaocao, who had gone to the county and rarely came back.
Wang Nan knew her situation and explained, "The house not far from Liu Lan's house belongs to Xiao Cao and his wife."
Lang Hong suddenly realized that she knew the house had no owner.
It’s well built too.
"Will she rent it?"
Wang Nan shook her head. "I don't know. I need to go to the county and ask her first."
"Go ask."
Yi Chichi supported this and made a well-reasoned analysis, "Given Xiaocao's current situation, it's unlikely she'll return to Kaoshantun. The house is empty anyway. Renting it to you and Laobai will allow us to collect rent without ruining the house too quickly. I think she'll agree."
Wang Nan nodded, "Lao Bai and I will go ask together when the time comes."
But unexpectedly, the steady Bai Chen became impatient this time.
In the evening, Wang Nan went back and told him about it. A few days later, this man borrowed a bicycle from the team leader's house and went to the county alone.
When I came back, the house was rented.
The date for his and Wang Nan's wedding has also been set, which is September 12, a week before the autumn harvest begins.
As soon as the news got out, all the men and women in the village came forward to help with the event.
The young friends in the Youth League Home were happier about borrowing money and tickets than getting married.
As someone who had come from the Youth League Institute, Yi Chichi also wanted to donate generously, but Wang Nan said that they had enough money and tickets and did not need hers.
Instead, he took a piece of red cloth and asked her to help him make a dress to wear on his wedding day.
The tiger head had been embroidered. Yi Chizhi, who was embroidering the body, took the fabric and took a look. It was thick khaki. This material was definitely not suitable for making single clothes, but it was suitable for making jackets or windbreakers.
After consulting Wang Nan, Yi Chichi made her a long windbreaker that resembled a skirt.
Wang Nan was very satisfied when she tried it on.
Ge Sujuan and the others touched the clothes all over and kept praising their pretty looks.
Zhou Qiuyu said with envy, "I want to make a dress like this, too."
"You want to get married too?"
Ge Sujuan glanced at her sideways, and Zhou Qiuyu was embarrassed. "I don't even have a partner, who should I marry?"
Lang Hong made a surprising statement, "Pick any male comrade from the Youth Institute; they're all good."
Everyone: “…”
This girl really never stops until she says something shocking.
If it were really that simple, with so many educated youth, there wouldn't be a couple like Wang Nan and Bai Chen.
"You should worry less."
Ge Sujuan replied with a helpless look on her face, then turned around and put her arms around Zhou Qiuyu's neck and said, "If you eat well, the whole family will not be hungry. Just do what you want. We girls should be nicer to ourselves."
