Chapter 290 Seems to Make Sense
After buying this dress, Chen Kexin bought a Zhongshan suit for her father, grandfather and uncle-in-law.
I asked at the fabric counter where the sewing group was, took out the fabric coupons and money, bought some fabric, and found the sewing group.
I found several old-style clothes hanging on the wall of the sewing group.
Her brows furrowed immediately, and she asked her colleagues in the sewing group, "Sister, I want to cut my own clothes. Can you help me sew them?"
The lady in the sewing group was displeased and shook her head, saying, "Comrade, we charge by piece. How can we calculate the money after you have finished cutting? Besides, if there is a problem with your cutting, who will be held responsible if the clothes cannot be worn later? We don't want to cause trouble, and we don't want to ruin our reputation."
Chen Kexin complained in her heart: People of this generation are too dogmatic.
"Well, I'll cut the clothes here, use your hemming machine and sewing machine to make them, and I'll pay the normal labor fee, okay?"
The lady in the sewing group asked in surprise, "You mean we can still charge you for the work if you make the clothes yourself?"
"Yes! Is that okay?"
The elder sister muttered in her heart: This world is full of surprises. I actually met such a fool. Suddenly, her worry turned into joy. She smiled and said, "Of course, you can do whatever you want!"
In her previous life, Chen Kexin often made her own clothes, but she no longer had the time after going to college. Her sewing machine was "borrowed" by a relative after much persuasion, so she stopped making clothes.
How to make clothes is all in my mind.
She quickly spread out the cloth, cut and sewed, and an hour later she had finished two pieces of clothing.
After ironing, it looks smooth and shaped.
I put it on and looked in the mirror, and I felt very satisfied.
The eldest sister in the sewing group thought that the girl was bragging and went about her own business, intending to watch her make a fool of herself and then make a few sarcastic remarks.
Not only did I find that the other person's clothes were well made, but they also looked fashionable, beautiful and fit well.
Can this little girl really make clothes? Still a master!
After his three perspectives were almost shattered, his eyes quickly set on the clothes made by the other party.
At first glance, this women's suit is the most popular Lenin suit today. Several places have been obviously modified to make it look more fashionable.
That piece of children's clothing is even more unique. Both the top and the pants are designed to be loose and comfortable, which not only ensures the child's habit of exercise, but also fully takes into account the child's growth needs.
She rolled her eyes, walked closer with a smile and said, "Girl, can I take a good look at your two sets of clothes?"
Chen Kexin immediately understood what the other party meant, and that he wanted to take advantage of the situation and steal the skills.
"I'm sorry, I don't want anyone to wear the same clothes as me."
Afraid that the other party might not understand, she continued to explain: "I just don't want anyone to wear the same style of clothes as me and my sister."
The eldest sister in the sewing group understood immediately, but she didn't give up. She quickly thought of a solution and said, "Girl, how about this? I won't charge you for the labor. I promise not to make the same style after I see it. Is that okay with you?"
Chen Kexin complained in her heart: What’s the use of guarantees?
Do you lack the labor cost?
Shaking his head, he said, "No need. I'll pay for the labor. It's getting late and I need to go back."
The eldest sister in the sewing group was so angry that her teeth ached, and she tried hard to remember the style of the clothes she had just seen.
Unfortunately, I only caught a quick glimpse and couldn’t see the style of the boy’s clothes clearly.
She was so depressed that she asked for the labor fee with a cold face. After collecting the money, she watched the other party walk away.
Chen Kexin didn't care at all about the eldest sister in the sewing group being unhappy. She gathered new clothes for the whole family and went home in a good mood.
When I walked into the house, I saw that my parents and my younger brothers and sisters had all returned.
"Dad and Mom, I went to buy you new clothes this afternoon."
Wang Qiaolian said angrily, "Kexin, everyone in the family has clothes to wear, why buy new clothes? Isn't this a waste? You're wasting money."
"Mom and Dad, the clothes we are wearing now are considered good in the village. Some people here will look down on us. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Look at what people around you are wearing. I think it's better to follow the crowd."
Chen Jiancheng and his wife were stunned. What their eldest daughter said seemed to make sense, but they had never thought about this.
At work these days, colleagues have been very nice, which has made them ignore the fact that their own dress is different from those around them.
The couple was about to say something.
Chen Guoqing and Wang Qingshan walked in.
The old man looked at his granddaughter with a kind gaze and praised her, "Ke Xin is really thoughtful!"
Wang Qingshan looked at him with admiration and said, "We are not short of money, so the clothes we wear cannot be too bad, so as not to be talked about by others."
Chen Kexin excitedly took out new clothes for the whole family.
"Everyone, try it on first to see if it fits. Grandpa, uncle, this is yours..."
The two old men were wearing Zhongshan suits, and they were very satisfied. They raised their lips and said, "Kexin has good taste. The size of this suit is just right for me."
Chen Guoqing originally had a Zhongshan suit. When he put on the Zhongshan suit that his eldest granddaughter had just bought, he felt it was more comfortable than the previous one.
She said with satisfaction: "This Zhongshan suit fits me well and I like the color. Kexin knows how to buy clothes."
Chen Kexin had made clothes for many years in her previous life. She knew the body shapes and weights of her family members by heart, and she paid close attention to what colors each person liked. Not only did she buy clothes that fit her well, but the colors also satisfied the person concerned.
Chen Jiancheng and his wife praised the new clothes after putting them on.
When my younger brother and sister put on their new clothes, their faces were immediately filled with smiles.
Chen Guoqing saw that everyone was wearing new clothes, "Kexin, put on your new clothes and show them to us."
"OK!"
I decided to give the woolen coat I bought at the department store to my mother.
Chen Kexin made a short coat with the thin woolen cloth she bought in the building and worked in the sewing group.
After she put it on, she asked, "What do you think?"
"Yes! Is this also a ready-made garment purchased from a department store?"
Chen Kexin told the truth: "No, I bought the material in the building. I have a spring and autumn dress of this style. This one is made according to that one, but with a few changes in a few places."
Wang Qiaolian suddenly realized and said, "No wonder this dress looks familiar to me. It's not bad to use this kind of thin woolen cloth to make a short coat."
“Guess who else’s clothes were made in the sewing group?”
Everyone looked at each other, and Chen Kexin smiled and said, "Ping An's clothes were also made by the sewing group."
Everyone was quite surprised when they saw Ping An's clothes. "Can't you tell they are handmade? I thought they were ready-made clothes from a department store."
Chen Kexin explained, "There are not many ready-made clothes in the department store, so I had to buy fabrics. My brother's and the one I'm wearing were all made in the sewing group."
As for cutting and sewing by yourself, there is no need to say anything.
"If you like it, I'll buy the fabric and make it for my family?"
Everyone shook their heads and said, "We just bought new clothes. Clothes for this season will only last a few days before we need to wear cotton clothes. Let's not waste money."
"I'll buy cotton clothes for the whole family in a few days..."
After saying that, Chen Kexin quickly realized that the cotton jacket was not only heavy, but also inconvenient to clean.
There are several down jackets worn in the space villa from my previous life. I can buy some fabric to make some cotton-padded jackets of the popular styles of this era for everyone, and fill them with old duck down.
You can also buy some duck down from a duck farm, treat it at high temperature and then dry it in the sun.
I quickly realized that there were no fine-grained fabrics in this era.
If I use ordinary cloth, the duck down will definitely come out. I suddenly felt depressed and could only wait and see.
When Wang Qingshan heard that Ke Xin wanted to buy cotton clothes for her family, he said sincerely, "I will live in the Chen family in my old age. I have some savings, and I will give them all to you."
