Li Hongshuang touched the material reluctantly, hardened her heart, and said, "My mother is right. I can't accept this cloth. You should take it back quickly."
Song Kexia looked at her distressed face and teased her deliberately, "You really don't want it?"
Li Hongshuang turned her head away, and she didn't feel heartbroken if she didn't look at her.
"No, take it back and make two more sets of clothes."
Song Kexia laughed, "I was just teasing you. Since I brought the things here for you, why would I take them back? Just accept them."
Li Hongshuang secretly looked at Fan Xiuxiu, fearing that if she accepted it, her mother would scold her.
"So I really accepted it?"
Seeing that Fan Xiuxiu didn't say anything, she happily accepted the things.
"Xia Xia, thank you so much. Let's go into the room and talk."
She pulled Song Kexia into her room.
The room has been decorated and has several big red wedding characters pasted on it.
The room also contained her dowry, two new quilts, several large and small basins, and some other things.
Li Hongshuang spread out the cloth and measured it against herself.
"This piece of cloth is about half a meter long. I've wanted to make a pleated skirt for a long time, but pleated skirts use too much material, so I've never been willing to do it.
There is so much fabric that I can make not only a pleated dress but also a short-sleeved shirt."
She unfolded another piece of fabric and looked at it. "This one is also beautiful. It has a big red circle on it. It's really festive. It can be worn at a wedding."
She seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly shouted outside: "Mom, come in quickly, I have something to tell you."
She shouted so urgently that Fan Xiuxiu thought something had happened, so she quickly washed her hands and went in.
"What's wrong?"
"Mom, I want to use this material to make a dress and wear it tomorrow."
"Whatever you think is true."
"I want to wear it, I don't want to wear that shirt, I want to wear a skirt.
Mom, it’s still early now. I’ll hurry up and I’ll definitely be able to finish it by evening.
Just wash it and it will be ready to wear tomorrow."
There were no cloth coupons at home, so they saved for half a year and finally saved a few feet of cloth coupons, just enough to make a new shirt.
As for the new pants, they were made of the most precious fabric that Fan Xiuxiu had kept.
I had prepared this new dress so that I could look decent when I got married tomorrow.
But now that there are better choices, Li Hongshuang naturally wants to dress more beautifully.
Fan Xiuxiu looked at the material in her hand and scolded, "There's so much work out there, and you're still looking for trouble now."
However, her feeling of pity for her daughter prevailed, and she found a pair of scissors to cut the cloth.
Li Hongshuang hugged her arms and said, "Thank you, mother."
"What style do you want it to be?"
Li Hongshuang used gestures and demonstrations to finally let Fan Xiuxiu know the style she wanted to make.
Song Kexia listened for a while and said, "Sister Hongshuang, it's better not to make this collar into a round collar."
She didn't know what the "V" neck was, so she expressed her thoughts in a few words, and Li Hongshuang nodded repeatedly.
Xia Xia is a city dweller, so it’s definitely right to listen to her.
Her suggestion was adopted immediately.
"Just do this, and my shoulders will look smaller and better."
Song Kexia: "You can also use scraps of cloth to tie your hair. This pattern will definitely look good."
Li Hongshuang's eyes lit up. "Why didn't I think of that, Xia Xia? You're so fashionable. I'll do as you say."
Fan Xiuxiu nodded, "Okay, let's cut it like this."
They were busy in the house, and Song Kexia had nothing to help with, so she went outside.
There wasn't much she could do to help out there.
Li Fangliang saw that she was sitting there bored, and he had nothing to do, so he went to say hello to Wang Guihua and took her home.
Song Kexia hadn't been home for several days. When she entered the house, Yaya saw her and ran over.
"Aunt."
When Song Kexia saw this cute and soft little dumpling, her heart almost melted.
When Li Zhengkun and the others heard that Li Fangyan had brought back a big watermelon, they also ran back early.
When they saw Song Kexia, they called out, "Auntie."
Song Kexia took Yaya's hand and walked into the main room.
Hu Qiaoer saw her coming back and took out the chestnut cake from the house, "Little sister, if you hadn't come back, I wouldn't have dared to share this chestnut cake with the children."
Yaya drooled as she looked at the cakes on the table. "Aunt, are they delicious?"
"Yes, it's delicious." Song Kexia took a piece of cake and handed it to her with a smile, "Eat it."
Yaya opened her little mouth, took a small bite, and said with a smile, "It's sweet."
Li Zhengkun and the others stared at her eagerly, looked at the pastries in her hands, and then swallowed their saliva.
Li Zhengde saw Li Fangliang present and did not dare to move.
He was beaten up by his fourth uncle yesterday and his butt still hurts a little.
Seeing that they performed quite well, Song Kexia gave each child a piece of cake and let Hu Qiaoer and Li Fangliang have a taste as well.
Hu Qiao'er was a little embarrassed and said, "I won't eat it. Leave it for the children."
She is such a grown-up, how could she have the nerve to compete with the children for food.
Song Kexia had no intention of giving all the good things to her children and not eating them herself, so she ate a piece herself.
"Sister-in-law, whatever the children can eat, we can eat too.
If we leave all the good things for our children and we don’t eat them, the children will think that they should be given the good things.
Over time, it will easily cultivate a selfish character in children, and we cannot do that."
Hu Qiaoer didn't expect that eating something could make a child become selfish.
But Xia Xia is a cultured person, so it’s always right to listen to her.
