Chapter 20: Only after going through water can you wear it with peace of mind...
Chapter 20
Lin Mujin was writing "Faded" in the house, planning to write a few thousand more words so that if something happened in the future, she wouldn't have to worry about affecting the submission of the manuscript.
"Sister, you really don't need me!"
I looked outside the door and saw cousin Lin cutting cloth with uncle helping her. Originally, this job should have been hers, but the two of them teamed up to drive her back into the house.
Cousin Lin didn't even raise her head. "I don't need you. Just focus on writing."
Lin Mujin pouted and reminded, "Sister, I need two pillowcases."
When I bought the small floral fabric, I bought three feet more.
In fact, she wanted to make two sets of quilt covers so that she could have one to change into, but her cousins didn't want to do that, so she didn't make any special arrangements.
But she will buy more in the future, and then she will choose a pattern.
These thoughts flashed through her mind, and Lin Mujin closed the door and concentrated on continuing to write.
It has to be said that a good external environment also has a great impact.
I no longer have to stand in a cramped corner to write, and the whole space feels more spacious.
My writing speed has increased unconsciously.
Feeling a little sore in her wrist, Lin Mujin immediately stopped writing, did hand and eye exercises, and then did two ancient exercises to stretch her body.
Then he didn't continue, but opened the door and went out with the newly bought underwear, "Sister, where are the new clothes? I've washed them all."
Cousin Lin was a little confused. "The new clothes haven't been worn yet and aren't dirty at all. Why do you need to rinse them?"
Lin Mujin was choked and thought for a moment before answering, "Dirty. Sister, think about it, these fabrics are made by machines, and machines are not clean either. Plus, a lot of people touch them during processing, especially clothes. Even with a sewing machine, manual labor is needed. I've also heard that some factories spray the fabrics with chemicals to prevent them from fading, but these chemicals can be absorbed by the skin and are harmful to the human body."
In fact, she was just talking nonsense about chemical agents. They are definitely not as prevalent now as they are in later generations.
Yes, she was deliberately exaggerating.
As expected, Cousin Lin listened and looked at the cloth in her hand. "Then do we need to wash these cloths too?"
Lin Mujin nodded. "You can wash it after cutting it. It will be easier to wash that way. But cotton will shrink. Sister, please leave some extra space when cutting it."
Then he said to the uncle, "Uncle, where is the sportswear I wore yesterday?"
Uncle replied, "It's in the closet."
Lin Mujin went into the bedroom to look for it, not only Uncle's, but also Cousin Lin and Lin Muli's.
"Sister, you don't have to wash it. I'll wash it together after I finish cutting the cloth."
Cousin Lin still didn't want her to get involved.
That's what the uncle meant. "Xiao Jin, go write."
Lin Mujin shrugged. "I can't keep writing. My hands can't take it and my head will feel dizzy. I'll wash some clothes as exercise. Uncle, where can I dry the washed clothes? There should be a clothes drying area outside."
She hung a lot of clothes outside to dry while she was looking at the house.
Cousin Lin put down the cloth and looked out the window. "There is an iron rod, but no stick."
It was probably taken away by the tenant or it was broken.
Lin Mujin also looked out and saw that there were indeed protruding iron poles with grooves on both sides of the window. If you put a wooden stick on them, it would become a clothes drying rack.
She estimated the length and said, "I'll go buy it."
You must buy this, otherwise you will have nowhere to dry your wet clothes. You can't dry them indoors, as it will be too humid and not good for your health.
Then I looked outside the windows of the two bedrooms and saw iron rods there too.
It seems that I can buy two more wooden poles.
Washing clothes can only be put on hold for now. Lin Mujin plans to buy some vegetables on the way, since she will be going downstairs once anyway.
——————
Lin Mujin bought a portion of redwood fish for ten dollars.
Half a pound of pork, 7.5 yuan.
A piece of tofu, four yuan.
I also bought two green vegetables and spent five dollars.
The dishes for lunch and dinner are enough. We can’t eat big fish and meat every day. We can’t afford it. We still have eggs and potatoes at home.
The meat and vegetables were purchased smoothly, but Zhugan had to go to two places before he could buy them.
For safety reasons, Lin Mujin picked thicker ones that looked sturdier, so they were naturally more expensive, at five yuan each.
Lin Mujin tied the bamboo pole to the bicycle vertically, but she didn't dare tie it horizontally to the back seat, as that would prevent others from walking.
After tying herself up, she tried to get on the bike. It was very easy, but the handlebars were awkward, mainly because she couldn't turn it to the right because there was a bamboo pole blocking it. So she rode very slowly and was a little nervous.
Fortunately, I got home safely without any problems.
Lin Mujin looked at the bicycle and then at the third floor, and sighed softly.
Pushing it up and down doesn't make riding a bike much easier.
After finally reaching the third floor, Lin Mujin was sweating all over his forehead.
Put the vegetables in the kitchen, use the bamboo pole to clean the house, and work with my cousin to install it.
Then he took the washbasin into the bathroom and gave it a quick wash.
Only then did I feel alive again.
"Sister, have you finished cutting the cloth?" She's moving so quickly.
Cousin Lin seemed to see through her thoughts and said, "I'm not going to hurry. I've been cutting for two hours. The duvet cover and other things are easy to cut, but the pillow is a little more troublesome. Give me the clothes you want to wash."
Lin Mujin gave her sportswear to her cousin, but she still washed her underwear herself.
Otherwise she would be embarrassed.
Lin Mujin didn't use a wash basin, but washed directly under the toilet faucet.
Fortunately, the weather was hot and the water was not too cold.
Soap your bra and underwear, scrub them a few times, and then rinse them clean.
Wring them out slightly and hang them in the drying area outside their own bedroom.
Afterwards, I helped cousin Lin wash two pieces of cloth, and then worked together to wring them dry and hang them to dry.
"Sister, we can't dry it anymore."
There's too much fabric.
Cousin Lin said simply, "Wash the rest this afternoon. Wash your small floral prints first. Once they're dry, I can make you a mattress."
Lin Mujin smiled and nodded repeatedly, saying that this was possible.
Cousin Lin chased them away, "Go and write quickly, don't make trouble here."
Lin Mujin responded with a smile, "Okay."
Lin Mujin returned to the bedroom and locked the door, feeling completely safe as she began to write the erotic sex scene – bondage and training.
I'm scratching my head. How can I describe the feeling of being bound?
It would be nice if I could draw a picture.
"A rough rope was wrapped around her chest... her hands were tied behind her back... her waist was curved into a sexy curve..."
Lin Mujin felt her face getting a little hot. She had tried her best, and any further details would be left to the readers' imagination.
I lay on the desk feeling a little powerless, and my whole body felt hollow.
"Faded" must be the swan song of her little novel, there will definitely not be a third one.
This can only happen once or twice, but not three times. Driving with so much stress all day long is not friendly to her, the flower of the motherland.
The main thing is that you can't "rush" without any consideration, you have to "rush" gracefully, which takes a lot of energy.
