The process of making down jackets is relatively complicated, and Jiang Manyue was busy at home all day.
"Auntie Wu!" Jiang Manyue handed her a down jacket, a mid-length one made of dark red fabric.
"Try it on. If the size isn't right, I can change it for you."
Wu Ma had never worn such nice clothes in her life, and she was a little overwhelmed when holding the clothes.
"Ms. Man Yue, did you really make one for me too?"
"Yes, it's so cold and you still have to go out to buy groceries and cook. It would be bad if you catch a cold."
"Oh, thank you!" Aunt Wu quickly put on the clothes. They were the perfect size and kept her warm.
"That's great. Thank you, Miss Man Yue. This is called a down jacket and it's really warm."
She made three more pieces throughout the day today. According to the time, Qin Zhenbei should have returned from the military camp by now.
He was taking the clothes and preparing to send them to Qin Zhenbei and Qin Ran when someone came to his house.
"Oh, I knew the clothes you were wearing must have been made by Man Yue."
"Look at this, it's really beautiful. I must ask him to make one for my wife today."
"You know she's not in good health, and it's been so cold lately that she doesn't want to go out."
Jiang Wan and Lin's father asked as they walked: "Master Zheng, has my sister-in-law been sick again recently?"
"Oh, don't mention it. Her illness is not physical, it's actually a mental illness."
"The situation is even worse now that it's freezing cold, otherwise I wouldn't have to worry."
Listening to the three people's discussion, Jiang Manyue looked towards the door.
Lin's father and mother walked in with a middle-aged man, and a trace of sadness could be seen on his face.
"Mom and Dad, are you back?" Jiang Manyue immediately stepped forward and asked.
"Man Yue!" Father Lin immediately began to introduce: "This is Commander Zheng."
"Today, your mother and I wore the down jackets you made to the military camp, and we were surrounded by onlookers the whole time."
"The clothes you make are light and warm, and everyone is asking where you buy them from."
"Your Aunt Zheng isn't feeling well, so she wants you to make her a custom one."
Jiang Manyue thought it was something else, but it turned out that she wanted to customize a down jacket.
"Of course!" She nodded with a smile: "I just don't know when Aunt Zheng will need it?"
Commander Zheng looked Jiang Manyue up and down with envy on his face.
"Of course it will be better sooner rather than later. It's very cold even at home right now."
"I really envy Commander Lin. Even in this cold weather, you still have your daughter making clothes for you."
"It's a pity that we don't have a child as sensible and intelligent as you, so we can only get rid of you to help with one thing."
She felt embarrassed by the compliment and agreed without hesitation: "Of course."
If Commander Zheng wasn't in a hurry, he wouldn't have come home so soon after work.
"That's good. I'll give you the price of the clothes when the time comes."
"Then I'll go and measure Aunt Zheng's size now, so it will be more fitted."
"Okay!" Knowing that there was a patient at home, he would of course be given priority.
After dinner, Jiang Manyue followed Jiang Wan to Commander Zheng's house.
The house next door is his home, and you rarely see him in the staff housing complex on weekdays.
The person who opened the door was the aunt who was in charge of cooking at home. She smiled immediately when she saw Jiang Wan.
"Commander Zheng, Madam, guests are coming!"
Commander Zheng came forward to greet them: "It's cold, come inside quickly!"
Jiang Manyue followed her mother into the house, which was quite warm because of the coal stove.
A middle-aged woman was sitting on the sofa, seemingly unresponsive to the situation around her.
"Cheng'an, Jiang Wan and her daughter are here!" Commander Zheng walked to her side and asked gently and softly.
He had a blank expression just now, but he seemed to come to his senses after hearing these words.
He turned his head to look at Jiang Wan and Jiang Manyue, his eyes filled with emptiness.
"Jiang Wan, you're here?" A smile finally appeared on her face and she walked towards the two of them.
"Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for a long time. I brought Man Yue to see you."
"Well, okay, okay!" She looked at her aunt with a smile: "Hurry up and make some tea."
Jiang Manyue saw that Mrs. Zheng's face was not very good, and it looked pale and unhealthy.
He was so thin that he looked unrecognizable, as if he had been ill for a long time.
No wonder Commander Zheng asked her to come in person to measure the size. It is indeed inconvenient to go out like this.
Moreover, I had hardly ever seen her in the family compound before, so I had no idea what disease she had.
The aunt brought over some hot tea, and Commander Zheng couldn't help but sigh as he watched the two of them sitting together and chatting.
"Only when you come can she put on a smile on her face."
It turned out that Mrs. Zheng and Jiang Wan used to be colleagues in the Propaganda Department. Since she fell ill, she could not go to work and had to stay at home.
"Sister-in-law, I came here this time to let Man Yue take your measurements to make clothes for you."
"Ah?" Mrs. Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Manyue.
Suddenly she stood up, walked towards her and grabbed her hand.
She opened her eyes wide with excitement: "Tangtang, is that you? Are you my Tangtang?"
"Tangtang, what Tangtang?" Jiang Manyue didn't understand what was going on.
Mrs. Zheng was very excited and held her tightly, refusing to let go.
"Old Zheng, this is our woman Tangtang, right? She's not dead, she's still alive?"
"I knew my daughter would come back to see me."
"Tangtang, you've grown up so much now? Where have you been all these years?"
Seeing that she was losing control of her emotions, Commander Zheng quickly stepped forward and pulled her back.
