Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 32 Making Silk Flowers

"Well, it is feasible, but the question is, will you do it?" Fang raised a crucial question.

"Uh..." Liu Man'er was splashed with cold water in an instant, but she was not such a person who gave up easily, so she said to Ye He, "Come on, Xiao He, take off the silk flower on your head and show it to sister .”

Ye He obediently took the silk flower off her head and handed it to Liu Man'er. After taking it, Liu Man'er studied it for a while, and thought it was not difficult.

"We should be able to do this, the main thing is to use that kind of thin wire." Liu Man'er handed the silk flower to Ye He again, and said, "Don't lose this silk flower, we will make some according to it."

"Okay." Ye He still inserted the silk flower on her head.

Liu Man'er said to Ye Yuan again, "Ye Yuan, go to the blacksmith's shop and get some thin wire like this, we will use it to make silk flowers."

"Can you really do it?" Ye Yuanduo asked.

"Don't worry, I'll do it the same way. When the time comes, mother, you're boiling some rice milk. We'll cut the silk cloth into the shape of silk flowers, then fold it in half and stick it on the wire. Twist them together again, isn’t it just a silk flower?”

Seeing that Liu Man'er spoke clearly and logically, Ye Yuan stood up and said, "I'll make an order now."

"Hey, it's raining today." Liu Man'er shouted hastily.

"You don't have to worry, I won't go to the town. In this village, Uncle is the blacksmith. I'll find him directly." Ye Yuan picked up the bamboo hat and walked out while talking.

Hearing what he said, Liu Man'er would not keep her anymore, and now she is full of thoughts on making silk flowers.

"I'm going to draw a few shapes, and then we can just cut them out." Liu Man'er said and went to Ye Feng's room.

Ye Feng has pens, ink, paper and inkstones, but now Ye Qing also has them, but Ye Feng has a better temper, so Liu Man'er went to Ye Feng's room.

This was Liu Man'er's first time entering Ye Feng's room. The boy's room was tidy. There was a desk near the window, and there were pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the desk.

Liu Man'er stepped forward, and happened to have Ye Feng's handwriting on the table, and the handwriting was not bad, quite neat.

Liu Man'er sighed in admiration, then pulled it away, and took out one from his desk.

It was the paper Liu Man'er gave him last time. After all, the young man didn't want to use any of it, so he put it neatly in the drawer.

Liu Man'er is not a frugal person, since he is reluctant to use it, then I will help him use it first.

Liu Man'er knows how to use the brush, but this is the first time for her to grind ink, and she really feels a little inconvenient.

Picking up the brush, he carefully drew various petals on the paper. He drew seven or eight kinds of flowers until the paper was completely filled. Then Liu Man'er stopped, washed the brush for him, and hung it on the paper. On the shelf, she took the pattern she drew and showed it to Fang and the others.

When Fang saw it, she was instantly astonished, "Man'er is so powerful now, this petal painting is really good."

"Sister-in-law, she can also write." Ye He opened his mouth and said.

Liu Man'er glanced at her, she quickly covered her mouth, and then remembered what Liu Man'er said last time, don't tell others about this.

"I used to watch Ye Feng write at the window, so I will too." Liu Man'er explained to Fang Shi, "I don't know many words, but I just have a good memory."

When Fang heard Liu Man'er's explanation, she nodded and said, "You're just calling stupid people lucky. I didn't expect you to be so smart and capable now."

Liu Man'er didn't want to talk too much on this topic, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Mother, let's not talk about this anymore, let's cut out these patterns to make petals. Then when the wire is ready, we will immediately You can make silk flowers."

"En." Fang said, she took it out of the basket beside her and cut out three kinds of petals drawn by Liu Man'er on the paper, and handed one to each person, and then began to sort the rags in the sack strip.

Ye He and Liu Fusheng also helped to do it, and Liu Man'er turned around to get the scissors from her room.

When she came back, the three of Fang's family had found a lot of rags. Besides brocade and silk, these rags were rare after all, and the most common cotton cloth was this kind. The brightly colored rags were also selected by Fang, so there are quite a lot of them.

"I think I made a lot of money this time." Liu Man'er said looking at the cloth strips piled up on the ground.

"Yeah, our Man'er is really good at shopping." Fang praised her unconditionally, even if Liu Man'er was just laughing at herself sometimes, she would praise her according to her words.

"Come on, let's start." After tidying up the cloth on the ground, Liu Man'er was ready to act.

"Well, you two cut it first, I'll make the shoes first." Fang said, and handed the scissors in her hand to Ye He.

Only then did Liu Man'er remember that there were only two scissors at home, but if Fang was going to make shoes, it was just right for her and Ye He to use two scissors.

The two looked at each other, and then started to get busy. Liu Man'er found a rattan basket, which was made of a piece of cloth, to hold the cut petals.

Soon, Ye Yuan also came over, holding a bundle of iron wires in his hand, Liu Man'er felt a little strange, Ye Yuan told everyone, "It just so happens that Uncle Tether's house sells such wires, so I bought a bundle and brought them here. I bought another pair of pliers and just cut it off with these pliers.”

"Well, good, my Ye Yuan is really capable." Liu Man'er imitated Fang's tone and praised Ye Yuan. Although Ye Yuan didn't speak, his dark face was slightly red.

This is because the sky is dark, Liu Man'er didn't see clearly.

It's all over now, Fang's went to boil the rice milk, Liu Man'er and Ye He cut the petals, and Ye Yuan was busy cutting the wire.

After Daofang cooked the rice milk, she was responsible for sticking the petals to the wire. Liu Fusheng also helped to do it slowly. Not to mention, a few people really made it in an afternoon. Few silk flowers come out.

"It's so beautiful." Ye He couldn't put it down when he saw the finished product made by Liu Man'er, "Sister-in-law, how did you make it so beautiful, you are so skillful."

"Didn't I do it together with you?" Liu Man'er smiled and inserted a silk flower on her head, "This is also due to your contribution."

"Yeah." Ye He nodded again and again, it was really different because he made it himself.

And when she saw the silk flowers made by Liu Man'er, she instantly disliked these silk flowers on her head.

After all, Liu Man'er has seen a lot of patterns, and the petals she painted are also very beautiful. They used paper as a template and cut them very neatly. Every petal is the same, so it looks better when twisted together.

"Mother, you can use thread to sew the underside of it a little more, so that it will be stronger." Liu Man'er handed the silk flower to Fang Shi.

"Okay." Fang took the silk flower and processed it again. At this point, a silk flower is completed.

"Sister-in-law, how much do we sell such a silk flower?" Ye He asked curiously.

"At least ten cents a flower." Liu Man'er said casually.

"Ten Wen, isn't this too expensive?" Ye He and Fang said in unison.

"Is it expensive?" Liu Man'er shook her head, and said, "Look, such a crude silk flower on Xiao He's head costs a penny. My silk flower is made of silk. It's high-quality, and it costs ten pennies. You can go to another house and pay it back." Can't buy it."

"Man'er, you know how to do business." Fang said repeatedly.

"It's not that I know how to do business, it's that my things are worth marrying." Liu Man'er said, "Let's make more and sell them at the next market. This kind of silk and brocade can be sold for ten yuan a pair, and then this For those who plant cloth, two pennies a pair."

"Anyway, I'm only in charge of doing it." Fang didn't plan to go to the town to sell it. She used to keep her head down when she went to buy two eggs.

"Okay, when the time comes, I'll go with Xiaohe, and take Fusheng with me by the way, we'll sell this as if it's for fun." Liu Man'er put down the scissors and stretched.

I have been cutting petals with my head down, and my neck is a little tired.

"Okay, let's take a break, it's time to make dinner, when Ye Qing and Ye Feng come back, they won't have anything to eat." Liu Man'er reminded.

Only then did Fang belatedly remember that it was time to cook, and Liu Man'er also belatedly remembered the child she had put in the cradle.

He hurried over to see that the child was sleeping soundly, but when he touched his body, he was already wet into a ball.

"Ye Yuan, bring a pair of kid's pants over here." Liu Man'er called out hastily.

Because Ye Tianchen often wets the bed, his pants are usually roasted on the fire.

"Okay." Ye Yuan understood what Liu Man'er meant, and hurriedly picked up a pair of pants from the cover and ran over.

Liu Man'er just took the pants and was about to come over to help him change, but the child pooped again, caught him by surprise, and let him get it in the pants.The two were in a hurry, Ye Yuan hurried to the kitchen to fetch hot water, and Liu Man'er helped him clean it up.

Then the child woke up and started crying again. Liu Man'er looked like she wanted to cry without tears.

In the past, she disliked the child very much and found it difficult to take care of her, but now she has no choice but to take care of Ye Tianchen. However, while taking care of him, a feeling of happiness rose in her heart.

Although it was not her own child, it made her feel like a mother.

Pain and happiness.

After cleaning Ye Tianchen, Liu Man'er helped him put his pants back on and put a diaper on him, while Ye Yuan took the initiative to wash the child's dirty clothes.

For this, Liu Man'er is quite satisfied. Even if she has a baby in the future, he can help her with a lot of work, hehe.

After hugging the child for a while, the child was probably hungry, but the porridge from before had cooled down again, so Liu Man'er carried him to the kitchen, heated him up on a small stove, and slowly fed him.

"Huh..." Blow gently on the porridge, and then feed it into the child's mouth, the child ate quite deliciously.

"Poor, I was born without parents." Liu Man'er shook her head, feeling sorry for the child. If the original owner really hurt the child that day, then she doesn't know what to do now. Thinking about it, she feels terrible.

Fortunately, she came too early and did not make a big mistake.
