Su Yue smiled and nodded, "Where should we buy the fabric?"
Wang Jingyi frowned. "Buy fabric? Why not just buy ready-made clothes?"
Su Yue shook her head, "The finished clothes are too monotonous in color. I want to choose the fabric myself and then find someone to help me make them."
She had already planned it out: she would make the same kind of clothes that she had seen young girls wearing in the village in her previous life.
Simple, elegant, and beautiful.
Wang Jingyi lowered her voice and whispered, "No need for anyone else, just your Aunt Zhang, she makes beautiful clothes."
Upon hearing this, Su Yue's eyes lit up instantly.
Zhang Lanhua knows how to sew, so she doesn't need to find someone in town to do it.
That way, I won't have to come back to pick it up after it's done.
Wang Jingyi led Su Yue to the fabric shop. Su Yue frowned, looking at the fabric with obvious disdain.
But there's nothing we can do; the cloth in the space can't be taken out for the time being.
I'll come over myself next time and take it out then.
Pick any piece now, enough to make a garment.
Seeing that Su Yue only bought a little fabric, Wang Jingyi couldn't help but advise, "Why don't you buy more and make a couple more pieces?"
Her gaze swept over Su Yue's clothes, which were even older than the clothes Su Yue had worn for five years.
Now that I finally have the chance to make new clothes, why not make myself a few more?
"No, I'll wait until this dress is finished, see how it turns out, and then I'll buy it," Su Yue replied.
Wang Jingyi thought Su Yue was worried that the clothes Zhang Lanhua made weren't pretty.
She patted her chest and assured her, "The clothes your Aunt Zhang makes are beautiful, don't worry."
Su Yue shook her head again, "I'm not worried that Aunt Zhang won't make it look good, it's just that I want to make a garment according to my own ideas, and I'm worried that my ideas and the finished product will be different."
Wang Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, "...So you want to make one to test the waters first."
In order to use the fabric in the space, Su Yue could only helplessly hum in agreement.
Wang Jingyi didn't say anything more; she felt the girl had a lot of ideas.
After buying the fabric, I also bought some rice, flour, and various kinds of vegetable seeds, taking just a little bit of each.
Upon seeing the candy, Su Yue turned to Wang Jingyi and asked, "Are Aunt Zhang's children here?"
She knew that Wang Jingyi had two sons who didn't live here.
I'm studying in Beicheng, and I won't come over until summer vacation in two months.
Without hesitation, Wang Jingyi said, "Her child isn't here."
Su Yue was slightly surprised: "Huh?"
Wang Jingyi then added, "Her grandson is here."
Wang Jingyi patiently explained to Su Yue the origins of Zhang Lanhua's grandson.
Zhang Lanhua's eldest son, who had half a year left in high school, felt that there was no point in continuing his studies and ended up joining his classmates in making revolution.
After a lot of fussing, he signed up to go to the countryside as an educated youth.
By the time the family found out, it was too late.
Not long after he went to the countryside, he married one of the women who had been sent there with him.
I heard it was that woman who caught the eye of the village bully.
The woman asked Zhang Lanhua's son for help; Zhang Lanhua's son had a crush on the woman since they were in school.
The two got married smoothly.
A year later, she gave birth to a child.
Zhang Lanhua was worried because the two of them had to do farm work and take care of the child.
If two adults can't even get enough to eat, how are they supposed to survive with a child on top of that?
She went and brought the child back, and now the child is six years old.
After listening, Su Yue seemed to understand something and concluded that six-year-olds can eat candy.
I bought some candy, and then it seemed like there wasn't much else to buy.
Before lunchtime, Wang Jingyi took Su Yue back to where they had boarded the boat.
The boatman sets off at a set time in the morning, but there's usually no set time for returning.
The boat would depart if there were five or more people. When Wang Jingyi and Su Yue arrived, there were already three people on board.
With the two of them included, it's just enough.
