"Big sister..." She called her elder sister in a low voice, and she was prepared in her heart. If her elder sister was really driven away by their family and they couldn't go back home, then she and her elder sister would depend on each other for survival...
Lin Qingping patted her sister's hand to comfort her.
With the support of her parents, Gu Youlian was no longer afraid. She rushed to Lin Qingping and Du Gen couldn't stop her.
"How much money do you have left? You...you hand it all over to me!" Gu Youlian said, and started to pull and search Lin Qingping's body.
It was a mess and no one wanted to listen to what Lin Qingping was saying.
Until a thin figure squeezed in between Lin Qingping and Gu Youlian, and a crisp and loud child's voice rang out, "Stop arguing! I have money!"
"Stop making noise, stop making noise--" the child drawled out his voice, which was sharp and bright.
Finally, the chaos was temporarily stopped.
"Zhiyuan, don't worry about adults' affairs, just go to sleep!" Liu Fen was heartbroken and tears kept flowing.
Zhiyuan didn't leave. He leaned against Lin Qingping, his eyes bright, and put the thing he was holding tightly in his hand on the pile of clothes. He said clearly, "Grandma, don't scold...Auntie. I have money. I will buy clothes for Auntie. Can you stop quarreling?"
He hesitated for a moment about how to address Lin Qingping, and finally called her "Aunt".
On the pile of clothes was a stack of ten-yuan bills. I didn't know how much there was, but there were definitely more than a hundred yuan.
Children’s thinking is very simple. If his aunt wants to buy clothes, then she will buy them and spend the money. The family has no money left, but he has money. He just wants the adults to stop arguing.
When Liu Fen heard this, her eyes became even redder, and she wiped her tears, "Silly child, how can I take your money? That's what your father left for you, you can take it yourself."
If Liu Fen or Gu Youlian had been interested in Zhiyuan's money today, Lin Qingping would not have forgiven them, but they didn't. Gu Youlian even grabbed the money and stuffed it into Zhiyuan's arms.
Lin Qingping became more certain of her judgment that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were not bad people, they just couldn't accept her shocking behavior.
Yes, in this era, looking throughout the entire Gujia Village, or even the entire township or county, there is no woman who buys clothes like this, and their horizons are only as wide as the county.
"Dad, Mom, and Big Sister, please listen to me." She expressed her thoughts and said solemnly, "Please believe me for once."
It was like dropping a bomb on the Gu family.
Everyone was stunned.
Even Lin Qingping's own sister was stunned: This idea of hers is really amazing!
Dugan's eyes were full of excitement: He guessed right! But this sister-in-law is even better than he thought! He only thought of reselling it, but the sister-in-law wanted to change the model?
Only Zhiyuan was the calmest, because he knew nothing. Because he didn't know anything, he was fearless. He even nodded and said, "I'll help my aunt sell it."
This way, we can stop quarreling, right?
Liu Fen and Gu Youlian both felt desperate, so desperate that they couldn't even cry or curse. They were certain that the money was thrown away. Who would be so stupid as to buy all these clothes from you?
Father-in-law Gu Dafu took a long drag of his pipe, his heart aching, "Then, sell it!"
What else can we do? We should try our best!
The whole family has this idea now.
Liu Fen cried and said, "Pingzi, don't do such stupid things again! If you have any ideas, you should discuss them with your family!"
There was no need to talk about returning the daughter-in-law. After all, Lin Qingping didn't squander the money for his own enjoyment, but wanted to make money.
The starting point is good, but it's just too young and fanciful.
Who doesn’t make mistakes when young? Your intention is good, so just change for the better in the future.
Needless to say, once the Gu family makes a decision, they will act decisively.
After Liu Fen finished speaking, she squatted beside the pile of clothes, waiting for Lin Qingping to tell her how to alter them.
Gu Youlian also squatted down and looked at her eagerly.
Lin Qingping didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mom, big sister, let's go to bed first. It won't be too late to start tomorrow."
The two of them refused to do anything and insisted on starting now. That was money, a lot of money!
Lin Qingping couldn't persuade these people to leave, okay, let's start with the cleansing.
In fact, the two pieces she threw to the section chief were indeed dirty, but the ones she picked out were relatively clean, at least not moldy.
When my father-in-law, who was about to go to bed, heard that the first step was cleaning, he didn't even go. He couldn't sew clothes, but he knew how to wash!
Seeing the family put aside their anger and despair towards her and work hard, Lin Qingping felt a little warm in her heart. No matter what, the Gu family's concerted efforts were still enviable. It was only such a family that could raise such a good son like Gu Juncheng...
After the family cleaned up the hundred pieces of clothes, it was already late at night. Everyone dragged their tired bodies to sleep. The eldest sister and her husband did not go home and also stayed at her parents' home.
Lin Qingping was not sleepy, however. She was drawing on paper, thinking of ways to transform these clothes.
She lived for nearly seventy years in her previous life and experienced decades of fashion trends. She had seen everything. She did not dare to be too advanced in the direction of transformation. Now it was the late seventies and the eighties were about to come. So she decided to change towards the fashion trends between the eighties and nineties. After another night, she had a rough idea.
Her parents-in-law got up early, and seeing her still writing and drawing, they felt a little softer in their hearts. Her father-in-law went to work in the fields early in the morning, and her mother-in-law even steamed an egg for her.
Lin Qingping looked at the bowl of eggs with sugar in them and smiled slightly.
The next day, we officially started the clothing modification operation.
Lin Qingping showed everyone the picture she had drawn, then took out one piece to demonstrate, teaching them how to take it apart, how to cut it, and how to sew it back together.
The women in the Gu family, including the second sister, all know how to do needlework. They usually buy cloth and sew their own clothes by hand. After Lin Qingping cut a few pieces, he watched them make a few more pieces in the same way, and then he felt that it was about time for him to let go.
The Gu family has a sewing machine, which was bought when Lin Qingping got married. She was lazy and never used it, but her mother-in-law had already mastered it very well, so her mother-in-law was responsible for operating the sewing machine.
Gu Youlian was anxious and felt that her mother was too slow to do the work alone, so she asked Du Gen to move his own sewing machine over as well. As a result, the two sewing machines at home started working at the same time.
As for Du Gen, who didn't know how to sew, he actually followed Gu Dafu to work in the fields for the first time. This was because Liu Fen sat in front of the sewing machine all day long and couldn't keep up with the Gu family's farm work. As a son-in-law, Du Gen replaced his mother-in-law to work.
Lian Zhiyuan was not idle either, helping with various tasks.
Lin Qingping looked at Zhiyuan's small figure and had another idea...
The sound of the Gu family's sewing machines often lasts until dawn.
After working intensively for a few days, one hundred pieces of clothing were successfully transformed.
