Chapter 58 Pinch



He Zheng was particularly happy to measure the size.

He stood in front of Su Erhe with a tape measure in his hand. The two of them were very close to each other. It would be difficult to measure if they were not close enough.

When measuring the shoulders, He Zheng kept his hands steady and wrote down the shoulder width on the paper next to him.

Measure the shoulder width.

It should be...

He Zheng looked down and caught a glimpse of the undulating arc.

Su Erhe looked at He Zheng standing in front of him, his face getting redder and redder as if he was holding his breath, his long fingers pinching the two ends of the tape measure, shaking like he was having an epileptic seizure.

She laughed at herself.

What?

Holding hands and kissing each other, it turns out that she is still a pure and innocent person.

"Okay, I'll do it myself!"

Su Erhe snatched the tape measure, circled it around his chest, looked at the number, and wrote it down.

After she had measured her waist and leg length, she saw He Zheng still standing there stupidly. Su Erhe reached out and touched him, "He's back to life!"

He Zheng said "oh" and his eyes fell back on Su Erhe's face, but after a moment, he looked down again like a madman.

After taking a look, he slapped himself in the face in his heart.

Mr. He, can you please have some shame?

Su Erhe ignored him and let him go back to his soul. Li Dong and Li Xi were still hiding in the kitchen at the back. Su Erhe did not go over there, but just shouted in the front room, "I'm leaving, Xiaoxi, my measurements are written on a piece of paper. I don't need to wear those clothes in a hurry, so you can take your time. Also, if you are free at home, come to my house and play."

"Sister Erhe,"

Li Xi heard the voice and came out from the kitchen, "I'll see you off."

"No need." Since Li Xi came out, Su Erhe directly gave her one dollar and five cents, as well as the two peach cakes. "Take these first. I'll get you some other things when the clothes are ready."

"Sister Erhe, there's really no need."

"Take it, don't send it off, I'm leaving!"

Taking the umbrella leaning against the wall, Suerhe went back.

As for asking He Zheng to make clothes, Su Erhe didn't think there was anything wrong if He Zheng was really willing to learn. In her impression, by the 1980s, it was popular for teenage men in the countryside to learn crafts, such as bricklaying, carpentry, painting, and even tailoring. Later, they learned to drive tractors, repair bicycles, etc. Men with a skill could make money and have food to eat.

In a couple of years, when the pressure is not so high and she has saved enough money, she will open a clothing store.

When the time comes, we will bring Aunt Wang Xiu, Li Xi and others along, as well as any women in the village who are good at needlework and have good character, to help the village get rich.

Doesn’t Du’s mother look down on the countryside?

She insisted on settling down in the countryside and living a good life.

What's wrong with the countryside?

Why is it not as good as the city?

Besides, she brought a space with her when she came through, and she always felt like she had gotten a great deal, and she felt uneasy.

It would be best if we could do something.

Of course, families like the Zhao and Zhu families...get the best way possible!

It rained for several days in a row the following week.

Su Erhe did not forget to go to the city a week to deliver vegetables and eggs to Aunt Nie. This time she also brought eggs from Li Xi's house. Of course, she bought them with money. It was not easy to do such a thing openly, but since they were from the same village, she just said it was a loan or a gift, and then gave the money to Li Xi privately.

Li Xi took the eggs and went back. Because Su Erhe took the initiative in the past few days, Li Xi came to Su's house several times.

"This girl is really good, but it's a pity that her feet are not in good condition." Su's mother watched Li Xi leave and couldn't help but say with regret.

If Li Xi wasn't lame, he'd be old enough to get married, and with the eldest son of their family...

Bah, bah, bah, what is she thinking!

Their family is not so poor that they can't even afford to eat. Wouldn't it be a laughing stock if they married their son to a wife with mobility problems?

Su's mother quickly dismissed the idea.

Su Erhe didn't think much about it. He put the egg into the space and made another copy.

She doesn’t care whether it is sold or not. Anyway, she still has tens of thousands of kilograms of rice in her space. It makes her feel at ease to see so many things!

"Mom, I'm going to the county town tomorrow. Just like the last time, an old lady helped me. I agreed to send her some vegetables, eggs and other things." Except for some things that cannot be told, Suerhe was willing to let her family know something about what she did outside. Since they were a family, it was inevitable that they would feel estranged if they always kept things secret.

"Have you found the person who saved you? Then you should thank him. So, I will get up early tomorrow morning to pick vegetables from the field. They will be fresher this way." Someone saved her daughter, and Su's mother felt that she was taking advantage of him just by eating some vegetables.

"Okay, then I'll go make buns. We'll have buns for dinner."

Minced meat cannot be made. She hasn't been out for a week and there is no one selling pork nearby. It would be terrible if she took out pork.

Fortunately, Surhe had made preparations in advance. After he came back last time, he fried a large bowl of lard with a flat oil. This time, he used the lard residue instead of pork as the filling. He soaked some vermicelli and chopped it, and added some chopped green onions. The filling mixed together was very fragrant.

After wrapping the buns, she steamed them in a pot, and then fried the pickled vegetables that Su's mother had prepared. They went perfectly with the buns, and then she cooked a big pot of egg soup.

Ever since Su Erhe took over as chef, the Su family's food standards have skyrocketed.

I saw that several people in the Su family had gained weight on their faces.

Su Erhe has a physique that makes her unable to gain weight, hehe, let her be a little proud.

Dinner was ready, but the men of the Su family had not returned yet. The weather had been good these days, and it was their village's turn to pay public grain, so most of the men in the village went.

When it was getting dark, I heard voices. The men of the Su family had returned, and He Zheng came with them.

He Zheng was very proud of himself. Others were working hard to move the grain, but he was responsible for driving the hand tractor. Isn't that a skill?

"Sister, what delicious food did you make today?" Su Xiatian smelled a fragrance as soon as she entered the door, which sounded like oil residue.

"Won't you know soon?"

When the people came back, Su Erhe and Su's mother brought the food to the table together.

The egg soup is hot and the buns are soft, it must be a particularly good dinner.

Each member of the Su family had a bun and was eating it with relish.

Su Erhe also took a bun to eat and taste his own cooking skills.

Only He Zheng stared at the white bread with a strange look on his face.

"Brother He Zheng, why don't you eat?" After Su Xiatian said this, the rest of the Su family looked at He Zheng.

In the past, He Zheng was always the most supportive of the dinners prepared by Suerhe, and he kept praising them for being delicious.

What happened today?

"That's right, is it not to your liking?" Mother Su thought it was delicious. Anyway, the food her daughter cooked was much better than hers.

He Zheng gave Su Erhe a strange look.

It’s hard to say, it’s hard to say!

What does he say about this?

Ever since that day at Li's house, I volunteered to measure Suerhe's size, although I didn't succeed in the end.

But he felt like he was sick. He had been having dreams for several nights in a row, and his dreams were all about...

Ugh!

He secretly cursed himself as a beast.

Looking at the white buns again, I want to pinch them.

But this happened at the Su family, in front of Su Erhe, how could he have the nerve to do that!

Hardening his heart, gritted his teeth, and glanced away, "I don't like eating buns!"
