Chapter 186 Cotton
Xu Xiuying looked at this, touched that, and wanted them all.
"This thermos is great. The weather is getting cold, and it will be convenient to drink some hot water."
"This kettle is also good. I can take it with me when I go out to work. When I'm thirsty, I can just unscrew the lid and drink."
"This bright red pillowcase is so pretty!"
"These two pieces of fabric are beautiful and festive! My youngest son is getting married soon, and it would be perfect to use these to make a new quilt!"
The more Xu Xiuying talked, the more she couldn't stop. She thought all of them were good and wanted them all.
What a pity! There is not enough money! Granny Chen and Su Ruanruan did not say anything, but just sat aside and listened to Xu Xiuying.
Xu Xiuying smacked her lips and reluctantly touched everything on the kang one by one before finally making up her mind.
"I want these two bright red pillowcases and these two pieces of bright red material!"
Everything else can wait, but these two things cannot wait.
Xu Xiuying's youngest son Qian Chunlei is 22 years old this year, which is considered an older youth in the production team.
Time was getting older and older, but Xu Xiuying still hadn't found a wife. She was so worried about it that she couldn't eat or sleep.
In fact, two years ago, Xu Xiuying was planning to arrange a marriage for Qian Chunlei, but it happened that famine hit at that time.
Who would have the ability to get married when they could not even get enough food to eat? Families with daughters at that time treated their daughters as cash cows, and when asking for dowries, they would ask for an exorbitant amount of money.
Xu Xiuying felt sorry for Qian Chunlei, but there were still a large family waiting to eat. She couldn't let them starve to death just to marry a wife, could she? She thought it would be okay to delay it for a year, but who knew it would take two years! Now, their production team had a good harvest this year, her family had a lot of labor, and they got a lot of food. If she gritted her teeth, she could find a wife for Qian Chunlei.
But Xu Xiuying still felt that she had treated Qian Chunlei unfairly.
I don't have the ability to get cotton to make a new quilt, but I can still change the quilt cover! Granny Chen was not surprised at all by Xu Xiuying's choice.
She and Xu Xiuying have known each other for many years, and she knows everything about Xu Xiuying's family.
These two things were prepared for Xu Xiuying.
Xu Xiuying didn't bring any money when she came, so she said she would go home to get some.
There are only so many things, it is better to get them as soon as possible! When she reached the door, Xu Xiuying stopped again, "Sister-in-law, can you get some cotton?"
Granny Chen smiled when she heard this. "You want cotton? How much do you want?"
Two quilts would need at least ten kilograms of cotton, which would cost a lot of money! When Xu Xiuying heard what Grandma Chen said, she knew there was a way, and immediately said, "Twelve kilograms! Don't worry about the price!"
"Why should I worry about you? Go home and get the money. The things are in Ruanruan's room!"
As she spoke, Grandma Chen glanced at Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan understood, stood up and walked towards her room.
Back in the house, Su Runrun pretended to open the kang cabinet, but actually took out a large bag of cotton from the treasure space.
She couldn't weigh it, so she didn't know how much it weighed, but she didn't have much time, so this was all she could do.
Just as she put the cotton on the kang, Grandma Chen came in with Xu Xiuying.
As soon as Xu Xiuying saw the big bag full of cotton, her eyes began to light up!
"Sister-in-law, you are so mean! There is still so much cotton! If I don't ask you, are you going to stop telling me?"
