Chapter 106: Making Clothes to Earn Extra Money
Not to mention, when Su Heng walked around outside, everyone was staring at her.
Hearing that she had taken orders from Chen Xiang and others, some young girls couldn't help but come to her to ask about having clothes made.
It is late autumn, the slack season for farmers, and many girls of marriageable age in the village choose this time to look for a partner.
This is the most important day for many village girls in their families. They can buy new clothes and wear new hairbands.
Many of them have been wearing clothes left over by their sisters since they were young, and this is the first time they have a piece of clothing of their own.
This dress is most likely something to be worn at a wedding.
Compared with Su Heng's outfit, the clothes from the supply and marketing cooperative that were once the most popular suddenly didn't seem so good.
So when they heard that Su Heng could make clothes, they all came to inquire about the market and wanted to ask her to do the work.
Su Heng didn't expect that just because she wanted to make some extra money, she would suddenly step into another industry.
However, she has been practicing her skills for so long that she can be considered a skilled worker.
As for style design, she has never studied fashion design.
But she has seen so much in later generations, so just don't be too exaggerated. She can choose from a variety of classic styles.
All she has to do is choose the style that best suits different girls.
For fear that she would not be able to finish the work and delay the girls’ meeting, she only took two orders at a time and would only take on the next batch after she had completed them.
Even Chen Xiang and her friends’ orders were pushed to the back.
There was no other way. The other person was in a hurry to see the other party, so Chen Xiang and the others could only reluctantly let him cut in line.
For a while, Su Heng became the object of pursuit of young girls in the village.
She became busy again, and Lu Mingchuan was left at home idle, so his plan to spend time with Su Heng fell through.
The injury on his arm had been healed by Su Heng a long time ago. After all, he hadn't been going out for a while and there was no need to show it to others.
With nothing to do, he tidied up the weed-covered vegetable patch in the backyard. The little rabbits had grown up and it was time to separate them into cages.
So when Su Heng took a break from her busy schedule, she could look out the window and see Lu Mingchuan making a cage in the yard.
"Are you tired? Come out for a walk and rest for a while."
Lu Mingchuan seemed to sense something, and he raised his eyes to meet Su Heng's gaze and spoke gently.
Su Heng stretched, walked to the window and took a few breaths of the outside air.
"No, this order is urgent. The girl said she'll be going to see me the day after tomorrow, so I have to rush to finish it in the next two days."
Lu Mingchuan also put down the work in his hands and walked over. The two of them leaned their hands on the windowsill, looking very naturally intimate.
"Then you will have to stay up late again tonight. Don't take such urgent work next time. There are bloodshot eyes." He said this with great distress.
Su Heng earned a lot of hard-earned money, which he felt was not worth it and he couldn't help much.
But Su Heng doesn't think so. Money is so valuable nowadays. You can make a few dollars from one order.
Moreover, seeing that the results of my work are widely welcomed, the sense of accomplishment is simply incomparable and wonderful.
"I won't stay up too late tonight. I'm almost done."
Su Heng looked at the cage made by Lu Mingchuan and thought of Su Ming's rabbit.
So he asked, "Has the mother rabbit given birth to another baby?"
Previously, there were two males and one female in the same cage, and I didn’t know which breed this litter of rabbits belonged to.
"Yes, I just saw a female rabbit plucking fur to build a nest." Lu Mingchuan said.
This is why he has to separate the cages, mainly to separate the female rabbits.
Because the male rabbit can make the female rabbit pregnant again within a few hours after giving birth.
Su Heng: "Then when the rabbits are born this time, I can take them back to visit my parents and see how my brother's medicinal herbs are doing."
I don’t know how many are left alive.
It is not easy to grow medicinal herbs, after all, the survival rate of seedlings is lower.
"Okay." Lu Mingchuan naturally agreed.
After chatting for a while, Su Heng went back to work.
Fortunately, the final result was very good and received unanimous praise from the buyers and her family.
It was a coat. The fabric the girl brought was dark red and the material was a bit stiff.
But there is no other way, this is all they can get.
Su Heng made a coat with a fitted waist and bows on the sides according to her figure, which effectively concealed the old-fashioned color of the fabric.
The girl was thin, and a dress that was too tight to her body would make her look too skinny, so Su Heng made the hem a little looser.
Wearing it just makes her figure look like a willow, dignified and a little playful.
"Comrade Su Heng, thank you so much! I'll definitely give you another big red envelope once I'm successful in finding you!"
Anyone who can ask Su Heng to make clothes must have a good family background.
The girl was so satisfied with the clothes she wore. She had never seen such beautiful clothes before. Besides, it was much cheaper than buying them at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Su Heng collected six yuan as a processing fee and agreed generously: "Okay, I wish you a successful matchmaking experience."
"Um!"
She was wearing it as she walked past the village entrance, which undoubtedly served as another advertisement for Su Heng.
After she left, Lu Mingchuan came out from the backyard and said, "The rabbits have given birth. Do you want to come and see?"
"So fast." Su Heng just found out the female rabbit was pregnant a few days ago, and she gave birth today. It was too fast.
Lu Mingchuan: "Yes, rabbits usually give birth after one month of pregnancy, and the rabbits can give birth after they are three months old."
Su Heng only knew that rabbits reproduced quickly, but she didn't expect it to be so fast.
"Raising rabbits is indeed the right thing to do. They are so fertile."
As they were talking, they walked to the backyard. Zhaocai followed them out of curiosity, but when he smelled the strong smell of rabbit breeding behind him, he immediately meowed and ran away.
Su Heng noticed the two round balls hanging from its buttocks and pondered, "Should we sterilize Zhaocai?"
Lu Mingchuan suddenly felt a little sympathetic towards Zhaocai: "Why do you want to be sterilized?"
"I'm afraid it will go into heat and run away with the little female cat outside."
"No, at worst I can just get another female cat." Let's forget about sterilization.
It didn't even know that it was attracting wealth, but it almost became a eunuch.
Su Heng walked to the cage. Lu Mingchuan had kept it very clean. In fact, there was no smell at all when the human nose smelled it.
Three rabbits had already been born in the nest, but their appearance was a little different from what Su Heng had imagined.
"So ugly, it looks like a little mouse."
Seeing her disgusted look, Lu Mingchuan chuckled: "It's like this when it's just born. It will be fine in a few days."
"Then I'll come back in a few days."
Seeing that the rabbit was in good condition and did not need to transfer its superpowers, Su Heng still made it some honey water.
After all, it's childbirth, so I need to make up for it.
The mother rabbit lived up to the honey water and gave birth to eight kittens.
Including the five just caught, there are now three big rabbits and thirteen little rabbits.
In fact, the previous litter could no longer be considered little rabbits.
I didn't know how big Su Heng was when I caught her, but now she has been raised for nearly four months and can reproduce.
She seemed to see the day in the future when rabbit meat would be free.
In the following days, Su Heng finished the few jobs she had taken on, and the little rabbit had grown a little bigger.
Su Heng picked out one rabbit from the first litter and added the new one, and decided to send the two to Su Ming to raise.
