It took more than an hour, but the overalls were finally finished.
It is indeed much faster to cut it in advance and sew it directly on the sewing machine.
The last set was sewn by hand and took several days to complete. The difference between the two now is too obvious.
I don’t know if I can wear this set of overalls this year.
I hope my belly will grow more slowly. When the weather is less cold, I can wear it for a few days to show it off.
Fold the overalls and put them next to the last set of overalls.
Sitting cross-legged on the kang, he took out a pair of scissors and began to cut cloth to make clothes for the children.
This piece of cloth was mailed by Sister Bai and her friends. It might be intended for Su Qingxue to make clothes for herself, so the colors are two colors: light yellow and white florals.
I have no idea whether the child is a boy or a girl, but I'm not that picky. It's good enough as long as he has clothes to wear.
At worst, I can pick out a few pieces of darker cotton cloth so that there will be both boys and girls.
I had just finished cutting out a set when I saw Zhou Huaian coming back with a jar.
"Whose pickle jar did you bring back?"
Zhou Huaian carried the jar to the kitchen and placed it directly under the small square table. This saved some space since the kitchen was not big after all.
I wiped the sweat from my forehead. The whole jar, the water and the eggs inside, weighed about 30 kilograms in total. It was still quite heavy after bringing it back from the village.
"I didn't buy fresh duck and goose eggs. These were all bought by the team leader's wife from the villagers. They were pickled goose eggs, which were already pickled and can be eaten directly. I thought I could pickle them myself next time I bought eggs, so I just bought the jars from their homes."
When you make a jar for pickled eggs yourself, you are never sure how much salt to put in it. It is better to just buy a jar that has been pickled several times. Then put the eggs in it directly and take them out to eat when the time comes.
Save time and effort without wasting anything.
Su Qingxue gave him a thumbs up and said, "Great! You are more thoughtful."
For two people whose cooking skills are not that good, it is better to buy ready-made ones.
We can't ask Sun Rui to do everything regarding cooking. He is not the family's nanny and we can't rely on him for everything.
Zhou Huaian raised his eyebrows and immediately revealed a smug smile.
The two of them sat on the kang and talked for a while. After no longer having to worry about money, 90% of couples still have a pretty good relationship, just like them at this moment, sticky and lovey-dovey.
You kiss me, I kiss you, and occasionally we have a passionate kiss.
After they had been intimate enough and were full of passion, Zhou Huaian reluctantly got down from the kang.
"Take a rest for a while. I'll make you some spicy pork ribs. They'll be ready for dinner."
Su Qingxue looked at him with eyes that seemed to be on fire. She felt angry and amused at the same time and thought he deserved it.
Even though he knew he couldn't move in the first three months, he still liked to provoke me, and he was the one who felt uncomfortable afterwards.
"Be more honest next time."
Zhou Huaian would never admit defeat. "Wife, don't be so proud. Sooner or later, you will have to give birth. When the time comes, I will let you see how powerful I am."
Will Su Qingxue be afraid?
Of course she is not afraid.
How could a woman who has been strong all her life admit defeat?
"I'll wait."
Zhou Huaian couldn't argue with Su Qingxue, so he simply went to the shed in the backyard to get some bones and prepared to make something delicious for his wife.
When passing by the bedroom, he said to Su Qingxue, "I forgot to tell you when I came back from the cowshed just now. Mom, Dad and Grandpa are planning to come over to see you in the evening. I will cook more later. I have already told them that we can eat here in the evening. As long as we are careful, we shouldn't be discovered by others."
"Really? Then go and cook more. Make more delicious food. I haven't eaten with them for a long time. I'm really looking forward to it."
Su Qingxue hurriedly urged him to make more delicious food, but then she felt that there seemed to be only beef, bacon, cured pheasant and cured rabbit at home, which was too little.
Find all these things and take out the dried seafood that was just wrapped. The seaweed and kelp can only be used to make soup, but the dried shrimps can be fried.
As I found more and more things, I finally didn't feel shabby anymore.
"Huaian, do all of this!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Already thinking about what to cook.
Pheasant can be made into spicy diced chicken, rabbit can be made into spicy rabbit meat, bacon can be stir-fried with green onions and garlic, dried shrimp can be stir-fried into small shrimps, beef can be stewed with potatoes, a braised bone can be added, and then a seaweed and egg soup can be made.
There are all meat dishes, but unfortunately there are no vegetables. It is difficult to take out the vegetables in the space.
Use a large bowl for everything and make a little more for each dish, that will be enough.
If there are more, even two kang tables won’t be able to accommodate them.
There were quite a lot of dishes to cook, and they were all ready by the time Sun Rui got off work.
Because we have to wait until dark and everyone is present before we can eat, all the food is kept warm in the pot.
Why does time seem to pass so slowly?
Why hasn't it gotten dark so quickly?
Listening absentmindedly to the conversation between Zhou Huaian and Sun Rui.
When Sun Rui heard that Su Qingxue was pregnant with twins, he was envious. "Congratulations, you got a double yolk. Your family has only one child for a generation. I think your family must be very happy!"
Zhou Huaian was particularly proud. After all, not everyone was as capable as him. He got double yolks right away, which was proof of his good fortune.
"I can't envy you enough. My family has only one son. That's because my father and grandfather didn't want my mother and grandmother to have more children. They were worried about their health. They felt that having one child would make their wives suffer, so how could they dare to have more children?
I am different. Although I am reluctant to let my wife have more children, my wife is very hardworking! With one child, both of us will suffer less."
Sun Rui had also heard about the Zhou family's affairs. He heard that when Huai'an's mother gave birth to him, his father fainted. This was already very famous, and the men in the courtyard thought he was not up to the standard.
But women are quite envious of meeting a man who loves them so much. When they give birth, their husbands faint from worry.
Compared with him, their husbands just do what they are supposed to do and don't worry at all.
For a period of time, the men in the family compound were particularly disliked by their wives.
Sun Rui felt that Zhou Huaian was too shameless. "When did I envy you? You just got married earlier than me. After I get married, my wife will definitely be amazing. What if she surpasses you and has triplets or quadruplets? You're just slapping me in the face for saying it so early now, isn't it?"
