Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

Chapter 16: Chapter 16

Xujiabuzhuang has also been opened in Yonghe Town for many years. Although most of the customers it receives are low-end and middle-end customers, the advantage is that the quality is cheap and the business is still very good.

However, since they are mid-to-low-end customers, most of the customers will buy cloth and go back to make clothes by themselves, which is cheap, affordable and low-cost.

So there are only two or two big embroiderers in the store, who occasionally come to make some ready-made clothes. The craftsmanship is not the best, but the clothes they make are also tightly stitched and durable.

After all, it's not uncommon for some men who don't have women in their families to buy ready-made clothes.

But today, I really encountered a strange thing.

"Each person has two bodies?" the shopkeeper repeated, fearing that he had heard it wrong, his eyes turned around on several people, big and small, in front of him.

For a moment, Lin He felt as if he had done something heinous.

But in the next second, she calmed down: "What? Don't do it?"

The shopkeeper nodded instinctively: "Do it, do it! Some of you, please, I will ask Xiu Niang to measure the size for you. By the way, do you want to make the child's a little bigger, so that he can still wear it next year."

As he spoke, he quickly led a few people inside.

"Okay, use cotton cloth to make two inner clothes, and then use coarse cloth to make two outer clothes. By the way, use a slightly thicker cloth, and then make summer clothes again when it comes to summer."

Lin He gave the order as a matter of course, motioned Li Yu and Li Hao to follow, don't look around, and walked at the back with Li Changhui holding Li An.

The shopkeeper took a look at Li Changhui, saw that he didn't refute, and didn't even change his expression, so he agreed.

"Okay, please come here, little madam. Xiu Niang is in the backyard. If you only make ordinary clothes, you can come and pick them up in three days, but you need to pay a deposit in advance."

The next moment, a small piece of broken silver was thrown over, and the shopkeeper instinctively stretched out his hand, and it landed in his palm.

"enough?"

It was Li Changhui's voice.

Lin He and the store manager turned their heads in surprise at the same time.

Lin He was surprised that Li Changhui was really good. She believed that Li Changhui would not be so rude and throw money at random.

The shopkeeper was surprised, because he didn't expect this family to be dressed in rags, and they would sell money for money!

Although he led a few people into the house just now, he was just following the principles of a businessman. What he thought in his heart was that if he couldn't get a deposit, even if the business failed, at least there was benevolence and righteousness, and his reputation would not be bad.

But I didn't expect that they were really rich!

The shopkeeper smiled more kindly: "Enough is enough."

At this time, several people had already arrived in the backyard, and the shopkeeper immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Aunt Chen, come and measure the clothes for some customers, big customers."

An aunt who was over half a century old came out of the next room, still holding a tailor's ruler in her hand.

"This is Aunt Chen, the embroiderer of our shop. Her craftsmanship is very good. The clothes she makes are durable. Although she can't make fashionable styles, the clothes she wears in ordinary times are completely fine. If you two have any requirements for clothes, You can tell Aunt Chen."

After finishing speaking, he gave Aunt Chen a few more instructions, then bid farewell to them and went out first.

"Auntie can also see that we all do farm work and have to go to the fields. We don't have any requirements for clothes. They are durable and easy to work with. I don't know how to use needles and threads. It's better to have finer stitches so they don't come off easily."

"No problem, the old woman has been making clothes for half her life, and this is the best thing she can do."

Aunt Chen measured the size of the clothes for several people, and wrote them down on a piece of soft cloth with a charcoal pencil. Lin He stretched his neck to read, but couldn't understand.

But if you think about it, you must understand it yourself, otherwise you would have been fired a long time ago, so you didn't care.

When measuring Li Changhui's size, Lin He took a closer look. Li Changhui was no different from the village. He still kept a straight face, didn't smile, and spoke in a calm voice, showing no emotion.

Aunt Zhang stood up straight when told him to stand up straight, and stretched out his hand when asked him to, very obedient.

Looking at Aunt Chen again, she seemed to be a little cautious, but she wasn't too scared, at most she acted cautiously.

Lin He wondered in his heart, did Li Changhui have any special magnetic field when he was in Xiang'an Village?Otherwise, why would it be like this?
But she didn't think there was anything wrong, did she?

It is said that children are the most sensitive, but there are three people in the family, big and small. Even when they went back on the first day, Li Yu and Li Hao just called daddy a little bit timidly, but they didn't dare to approach them.

baffling.

The embroiderer took their measurements, asked them carefully what clothes and fabrics they needed, and asked them to come and pick them up in three days.

"I also have a sister who is as good at craftsmanship as I am, but she usually takes care of her grandson at home, and only comes to help when she is busy. I will call her later, and the two of you can work faster."

Generally speaking, women's families can make simple clothes. The women in the village have learned to do it by themselves since they were young, which is cost-effective.

Even if there are some single men, there are aunts and aunts in the clan, etc. Otherwise, it is much more cost-effective than buying ready-made clothes to find someone in the village who can make clothes and pay a little less money.

But there are many men in the town who come to work from other places, all of them are alone. The clothes are damaged, so naturally they still have to come to the tailor shop.

But like Lin He and the others, there are more than a dozen sets, which is really rare. Fortunately, there are no complicated designs, and they are all shorts and shorts that are convenient for working in the field, which is not troublesome.

"Okay, thank you, auntie, then let's go first and come back in a few days."

In less than a quarter of an hour, the family came and went, but after Li Changhui took the children out, he turned around and looked for Aunt Chen, muttering a few words.

She also suddenly remembered that this body is 15 years old, and sunflower water has also come.

It's just that in my memory, Kuishui has never been normal, and the last time seems to have been two months ago.

This body is tattered and tattered, and irregular menstruation is normal, but such things as menstruation belts should be prepared in advance.

Lin He couldn't help frowning when he thought of menstruation belts in his memory.

When I went out, I simply bought half a catty of cotton. Damn it, thirty cents a catty, how expensive!

Fortunately, cotton is light, and half a catty is enough for the time being.

In memory, the original owner's menstrual belt was shared with the original owner's mother, and there was no need to think about cotton, only plant ash into it.

Fortunately, her boss, Jiahui, was able to make money so that he could buy two new menstrual belts that could be changed and washed, as well as some cotton.

However, next time Li Changhui comes to town to pick up clothes and sees the menstrual belt...

Forget it, they're all adults, so there's nothing to be shy about, she's still his daughter-in-law in the eyes of outsiders.

Thinking of this, Lin He took a few steps to the father and son who were waiting for her outside the store: "I also want to buy a small pot. It's so big that it can boil water. Where can I buy it?"

Replace it with a new one every time?
She probably won't have that life for the time being, so she plans to buy a small clay pot, clean it after one use, boil and sterilize it, and replace it with a new one after a few months of use.

Well, it shouldn't be too wasteful.

But cotton is really expensive. If you make cotton clothes in winter, it will be even more expensive.

"By the way, Brother Hui, do you know where I can buy cotton seeds?"
