Su Erhe calmly folded his umbrella and walked in.
He Zheng and Li Dong got up from the ground one after another. He Zheng kicked his brother on the butt and said, "I'll teach you a lesson."
Li Dong could see how much He Zheng cared about Su Erhe, so he immediately bowed and apologized, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I'm a bad mouth, it has nothing to do with Brother Zheng."
"You're quite talkative." Su Erhe glanced at Li Dong.
this……
Li Dong scratched his head. How should he respond to this?
"Well, I'll go get you a glass of water."
It doesn’t matter if you can’t respond, as long as you know how to slip away.
Li Dong ran fast. He could run, but He Zheng couldn't. He looked at Suerhe with his eyes wide open and hid his hands behind his back.
Su Erhe saw it and asked, "What are you hiding?"
He Zheng shook his head, "No."
"Show me!"
Su Erhe didn't need to be polite to him. As long as she spoke in a harsher tone, He Zheng would be helpless. After hesitating for a while, he stretched out his hand with the back of his hand facing up.
"Turn over!"
He Zheng paused for a moment and turned his hand over.
He was tall with long legs, and of course his hands were particularly big. He had wheat-colored skin, and his fingers were slender with obvious joints. There was nothing wrong with his right hand, but there were many small needle holes on his left hand. They must have been pierced deeply, and the bleeding left small black spots.
It's obvious that it was pricked by an embroidery needle.
Su Erhe's heart softened immediately, "Are you really learning how to make clothes?"
He Zheng nodded.
I learned it, but the things I sewed out are so ugly...
His mother was probably hit hard by him and ignored him all morning, so he ran to Li Dong to discuss countermeasures. If it really didn't work, he could only ask Li Xi to teach him. Although Comrade Wang Xiu said that his level was not good enough, he felt that Comrade Wang Xiu's level might be inflated. If the master himself can't do it well, how can he teach a good apprentice?
Fortunately, Comrade Wang Xiu didn't know what his son was thinking. If he had known, he would have prepared a feather duster.
"Does it hurt?" After a moment of silence, Su Erhe asked again.
He Zheng quickly shook his head. What was there for a grown man to be afraid of this little pain? It was like a mosquito bite.
But he soon changed his mind. This was such a good opportunity and he couldn't miss it.
The shaking of his head turned into a nod, "If you blow on me, it won't hurt anymore."
Li Dong had just walked out with a glass of water. Upon hearing this, he glanced towards the main house, then looked at the water in his hand, and turned back quickly.
This is all I can do to help you, brother. Come on, Brother Zheng!
"Do you think this is possible?" Look, he is being too arrogant again.
He Zheng rubbed his shoes on the ground, "I know, but I still have to try. If I don't ask, can you take the initiative to blow on me or hold my hand?"
have to!
I shouldn't have said so much to him.
Su Erhe chose to ignore him.
"Li Dong, is your sister Li Xi at home?"
Because he didn't see Li Xi when he came in before, Su Erhe could only ask Li Dong first.
Li Dong poked his head out from behind the mud wall. After making sure that he could go on stage, he came out and said, "She's going to feed the pigs and will be back soon."
"Brother, I'm back!"
Just as she finished speaking, Li Xi came back holding an umbrella. Seeing Su Erhe and He Zheng were there, she called out to them one by one, "Sister Erhe, Brother He Zheng."
Li Xi is 17 years old this year and is already a grown-up girl, but she is very thin, and her clothes and pants have many patches. Although her complexion is not very good, her facial features are quite delicate, much prettier than Zhu Xing, and her voice is also soft and gentle.
Su Erhe noticed that her left leg was not in good condition, so she needed to support her leg with her hand when stepping over the threshold. It was not particularly obvious when walking on flat ground. It was not good to stare at other people's weaknesses, so she just took a quick look and quickly looked away.
Li Xi put away his umbrella and walked into the house. He met Su Erhe's gaze and smiled slightly.
"Brother, you stay and talk to them. I'll go and take care of things in the back."
"I came to see you." Su Erhe called her. Sometimes the magnetic field between people is quite subtle. Anyway, the first impression of Li Xi was very good. Besides, she came to see Li Xi in the first place. So she said to He Zheng and Li Dong, "You go to the back. I want to talk to Li Xi."
"No, sister-in-law, what do you want with my sister?"
"What are you afraid of? Su Erhe won't eat people. Let's go to the back!"
As soon as Li Dong finished speaking, He Zheng grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and forcibly took him away.
Li Dong howled, "Brother Zheng, be gentle, I'm not doubting my sister-in-law, I'm just afraid that my sister will bully her, okay..."
You're afraid it's a ghost.
With someone like Suerhe, who could beat Sun Hongying and Zhao's mother in the fields, how could the skinny Li Xi bully her?
Su Erhe was also too lazy to argue with him. This Li Dong was worthy of being He Zheng's follower. Both of them were equally good at talking.
"Li Xi? Is it okay for me to call you that?"
Su Erhe couldn't be too enthusiastic at the beginning, so as not to scare the girl. After all, Zou Zhou had been friends with the original owner for many years, and she was not very familiar with Li Xi.
Li Xi was also a little panicked, because the adults said that city people looked down on country people. Suerhe was exchanged from the city and was very beautiful. She was quite worried that Suerhe would look down on her. After all, she was not only a country girl, but also a disabled person.
However, Su Erhe's eyes were very friendly. Unlike some people, they would look at her with sympathy or disgust when they saw that she had a bad leg.
So she nodded, "Sister Erhe, please sit down."
"I won't sit down anymore. I'm a straightforward person. I just say whatever I want to say. My mom said you're very good at making clothes, so I want you to make a few clothes for me. I'll give you 50 cents for each set. Is that okay with you?"
Su Erhe was not sure whether the labor fee was too little or too much. Anyway, as long as she got along well with Li Xi, she could share some fabric or other things with her and would not let Li Xi suffer any loss.
Unexpectedly, Li Xi hurriedly shook his head and said, "No need to pay, just give me the materials and I will make it for you."
Many people in the village asked her to make clothes. The polite ones would just give her two eggs, while others would give her nothing at all. Especially the Zhu and Zhao families, she had a lot of free time anyway, so she just did it. Originally, the two brothers and sisters had to rely on the help of the villagers to make a living in the village.
"How can that be? We still have to pay for the work."
In Surho, there is no reason to take advantage of others, and making clothes is quite troublesome.
After saying that, without giving Li Xi another chance to refuse, she opened the bundle. Inside were two rolls of high-quality cotton cloth, which Sulhe planned to use to make autumn clothes and autumn trousers, and then the outer cloth for the cotton-padded jacket, and the cotton. Li Xi was used to making all these, so she said she knew what to do.
She brought out the measuring tape again, "Sister Erhe, please stand still and I'll take your measurements."
"become!"
Su Erhe stood still, and Li Xi walked around in front of her and pulled out the tape measure to measure the size.
"Xiao Xi!" Li Dong suddenly called out from behind, "Come over here and take a look. Where did you put the matches at home? I can't find them."
"Brother," can't you see she is busy?
"Hurry up—"
Li Dong shouted urgently, and Li Xi could only apologize and ask Suerhe to wait for her for a while, put down the tape measure and walked to the kitchen at the back.
Su Erhe stood in the main house waiting, and looked around the Li family's house.
I felt strange when I heard the footsteps. Li Xi's footsteps were not so heavy. Okay, I looked up.
He Zheng came over, met her gaze, pointed behind him, and explained in a very serious tone, "I don't know what those brothers and sisters are doing, but the firewood won't light. Um, let me help you measure the size."
Su Erhe: "..."
Do you really think I can't see what you're up to?
