Rebirth of a chartered wife

Chapter 43 How to upgrade the system

"Really?" Lin Lan turned to look at Mother Lin in disbelief.

She hasn't been to her grandma's house for a long time. The shoe factory has been busy for several months recently, and even the rare one-month holiday has different timings from other factories.

After Lin Lan and her daughter had discussed how to go to grandma's house for dinner in the afternoon, Fu Yunlai was pulled back to her room by her friend: "You have a conscience. You know how to come and see me during the holiday!"

Fu Yunlai felt guilty for a moment, so he quickly took out a small bag of beef jerky from his backpack and stuffed it into his friend's hand in a flattering manner.

Lin Lan's eyes lit up as she smelled the fragrance. She immediately opened the bag and took out two sticks.

I gave Fuyun one, and I took one myself, and ate it happily.

"What kind of jerky is this? It tastes very good!" Lin Lan asked vaguely while eating.

Fu Yunlai quickly signaled her to finish eating first, otherwise if Mother Lin came in and saw her later, she would probably have to teach her to talk with something in her mouth!
After the sisters finished eating their snacks, Fu Yunlai revealed the purpose of her visit today: "Lan Lan, can I use your sewing machine?"

Lin Lan was hesitating whether to eat a second piece of dried meat. When she heard Fu Yunlai's request, she immediately took her to the sewing machine.

The Lin family's sewing machine was a dowry from Lin's mother. Although she is not young, it is well maintained.

Fu Yunlai sat in front of a sewing machine that was obviously more old-fashioned than those in the shoe factory or at his brother-in-law's home. After hearing a brief introduction from Lin Lan, he started to try it out.

The fact that she had already started working on the sewing machine was not just about announcing good luck to her friends.

Even Lin Lan's grandpa's family mentioned it, so Lin Lan wasn't worried at all about his friend not being able to use the machine.

However, seeing what Fu Yunlai took out from his backpack, Lin Lan, who had just made up his mind to get another piece of dried meat, stopped and looked at it curiously.

Fu Yunlai first pulled the elastic band a few times to test its elasticity, then marked the length and cut it off.

She didn't rush to cut out the remaining elastic.

Then according to her needs, she cut a piece of suitable size from the floral cloth and started sewing with a sewing machine.

Soon, under Fu Yunlai's skillful hands, a flower-like head flower appeared in Fu Yunlai's hands.

After she sewed both ends of the elastic band, she tried the stretch again.

how to say?

The craftsmanship in the 70s is still slightly different in this regard. Not only is the elasticity not very sufficient, but the retraction is not very good either.

I estimate that if it is tightened like this again and again, the elastic band will soon break.

But Fuyun took a look at the screen that had appeared. It only asked for one finished product?
This is an unexpected blessing!

At this moment, Lin Lan, whose eyes had already widened, snatched the newly-carved bouquet from Fu Yunlai's hand without hesitation: "Lai Lai? What is this? On the wrist? Or... Is it a hair tie? How can you make it with cloth and elastic bands?"

As she spoke, she simply put down the dried meat bag in her hand.

Then I put it on both my left and right wrists in turn.

Then, without even needing to be reminded by Fu Yun, she just used her hands as a comb and began to tie her hair with a hairband.

After the pricking, he turned around very smugly and asked: "Come on, how are you doing? Does it look good?"

Fu Yunlai felt a little helpless, but still sincerely praised: "It looks good, it does look good!"

These words of good fortune are true.

Girls in this era are mostly simple.

Normally, she is used to Lin Lan's single or double braids.Only occasionally can you see her with her hair down and wearing a headband.

Even so, the styles of hairbands are very simple and the colors are not eye-catching.

Now, when she wears the small floral headdress with pink flowers on a white background, she feels completely different from usual.

Even though she simply tied her hair into a low ponytail.

Fu Yunlai moved his fingers slightly, but in the end he didn't go over to help.

Although she can only wear a high ponytail, in this era, not being pretty enough... is actually not a bad thing.

So, next, Fuyunlai changed his tricks and started to make head flowers.

The elastic band passes directly through the middle, and the outside is made into a long cloth tube, which is the large intestine hair tie.

The elastic band is specially cut to be longer, and the two strips are connected together. The outer strip of cloth is wider in the middle and narrower on both sides. After it is done, pull it together to become a new type of elastic hairband!
Also put a coat on the elastic band and a bow on the car...

One after another, novel hair flowers couldn't help but appear in Fu Yunlai's hands. She dug out the memories of her previous life and tried her best to find some that could barely fit in with this era and could also match the materials at hand. Style.

To be honest...after finishing eight kinds of head flowers, Fuyun Lai really put a lot of thought into it.

When the new upgrade reminder appeared, Fu Yunlai was really relieved.

If Lin Lan hadn't been there with the same enthusiasm, trying to make hair ties one after another, Fu Yun would have almost stopped doing it.

But looking at the two pieces of fabric she had cut into pieces, Fu Yunlai tidied up the mess honestly.

This time, she specifically asked her friend what she liked about the style just now, and prepared to make two for her.

In order to complete the task just now, the flowers Fu Yun made were actually too small!
This is to save elastic and fabric.

After all, Fu Yunlai really didn't know that such a small thing could count as a task until it was finished.

But strangely, most of them are just one task at a time.

Except that Fu Yunlai couldn't remember the style at the end, and the elastic headband should obviously be used to tie double braids. The task required that two pieces be made to count as one task.

So after completing the task, you can still do something with the fabric and elastic band.

In fact, she didn't have to worry about the fabric. She glanced at the backpack.

On the way out, she was afraid that she would not have enough materials, so she specially found a piece with suitable color and material.

That's it...the fabric is one meter long and wide, and is used directly to make a headdress. She will probably be beaten by her friends when she takes it out.

Therefore, if you are not prepared for good fortune to come, you will not move unless you have to.

Lin Lan struggled for a long time, and finally chose the style of two head flowers: "Why don't you just give me the one you made? Why do you have to make it for me again?"

Fu Yunlai watched his friend look at the other more beautiful headdresses for a long time, but finally chose the two most simple ones.

Even the pair she used to make up the numbers!
But she didn't say anything.

I measured the elastic band and even luxuriously chose double it, preparing to make it firm so that the hair flower can last longer.

When Lucky Lai's new ones were in hand, Lin Lan felt the difference: "What are these... intended for?"

"You choose what you like first!" Fu Yunlai replied while handling the remaining fabrics.
