As we enter May, the weather gradually warms up, and it becomes easy to sweat when wearing long-sleeved clothes during the day. Yulan's skills in making clothes became more and more proficient, and He Xiaoshuang said to her: "If you have time, you can make your and Dong'er's summer clothes, and you decide the fabric style yourself, and I won't assign you tasks for the next month." Also, help me make a dress for Mi'er as a gift for Juneteenth. ”

Yulan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you want to make Brother Shi's clothes?"

He Xiaoshuang nodded, "I originally planned to make his clothes for him myself, can you?"

Magnolia laughed and said confidently, "I can." ”

He Xiaoshuang Wan'er, she liked Yulan's confident appearance very much, and it was easy for people to ignore her age, so she smiled: "That's okay, you do it first, if Ah Shi doesn't like it, I'll do it again for him." ”

Yulan responded with a smile, thinking, "If I can't even take a He Shikai, how can I expect the clothes to be sold in the future?"

Magnolia Chen Dong'er: "Do you like skirts, or pants?"

Chen Dong'er's usual outfits are sweet skirts, dresses, and skirts, most of which are prepared by He Xiaoshuang, and a small part is bought by He Shikai's mother, so Yulan doesn't know which type Chen Donger prefers.

Hearing Yulan ask, Chen Dong'er said happily: "I want pants, wearing a skirt, A-Niang is not allowed to do this, I am tired." ”

Yulan smiled unkindly, Chen Dong'er was very wild many times, but He Xiaoshuang wanted her to be a lady, no wonder she didn't want to wear a skirt.

So he nodded and said, "I see." Let's make a beautiful sister outfit. ”

Magnolia remembered the popular girlfriend outfit in later generations, and began to draw design drawings. One is a plaid haarem with a white patchwork top with pants-like sleeves, and a white suspender with a plaid top. After thinking about it, it wasn't enough, so I drew more than a dozen sets in one go. Except for children's styles, most of them are adult styles, and summer and autumn clothes are available.

Magnolia's clothing company has been registered, and the registered name is like brocade, which means like a brocade in the years. The legal person of the company is Yan Lu, and the shares are finally according to the meaning of Yumei, Yan Lu 30% and Yumei 70%.

The trademark of the clothing was entrusted to the relationship, and it was also done in advance. So now all the design drawings painted by Yulan have made anti-counterfeiting trademarks, considering that the designer on the company's bright side is Yumei, Yulan uses jade characters when making name flower signs, and uses obscure techniques to express a certain detail of the clothing, so that others can quickly be recognized even if they imitate.

Yulan estimates that it will take at least two months for all the equipment and personnel in the factory to arrive, and then the clothing will start to be put into production, and it is estimated that it will start to make winter clothes directly.

So there wasn't much time left for Magnolia, and she started to think about the design as soon as she had time.

Although Magnolia has a lot of popular styles in her mind, Magnolia is not ready to use those. First, each designer's work has a very obvious personal style, and Yulan doesn't want to be questioned for plagiarism one day when she becomes famous; second, the plagiarized things will always carry the brand of others, and Yulan prefers to follow her own consistent style and make original clothes. The third point is the most important, that is, the style is too advanced and does not conform to the national conditions.

Yulan didn't know that because of her move, the development of Bijin was much less right and wrong. After several twists and turns, Bijin was able to stand tall in the wind and waves, and finally occupied a place in the fashion field.

Yulan spent two or three hours a day drawing the design drawings, and it took a whole week to complete it, and Chen Dong'er, an anxious child, urged behind Yulan every day.

She talked a lot, chattering like a sparrow, and the noise made Yulan mess up her thoughts several times.

In the end, Yulan couldn't bear it anymore and threatened her: "If you quarrel again, I will make you a skirt directly." ”

Chen Dong'er reluctantly shut up.

He Shikai comes here every Friday night and returns to school on Sunday afternoon.

When Yulan was free, she took a tape measure and measured him.

He Shikai looked at the little girl who was busy around him, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face, and his expression was doting and soft.

The fat girl must not know how charming her focused appearance is! Also, the little girl usually has a calm expression, and maintains a kind of alienation from everyone, although this alienation is very light, but it does exist, and people will not be okay to observe a little girl all the time, and they will feel that she is cold.

He Shikai felt that his coldness was a protective color, and in order to isolate himself from those who had ill intentions, it became a habit over time.

But where did the fat girl's coldness come from? Such a young child has an indifference to see through the world, and her age-inappropriate calmness makes him have the illusion of facing the elderly.

Yulan measured the size, raised her head and asked He Shikai, "Do you have any requirements?"

He Shikai looked at the serious appearance of the little girl who was not as tall as his chest, and wanted to laugh inexplicably, but he barely held back, thought seriously for a few seconds, and said uncertainly: "Comfortable?"

Yulan snorted and laughed, revealing her freshly grown white front teeth, and said in her heart, what kind of requirement is this, we won't do it if it's not comfortable to wear.

He Shikai was dazzled by the little girl's bright smile, and rarely showed an embarrassed look.

Yulan smiled and said, "I must live up to your expectations!"

In response to her, He Shikai's head touching killing.

......

It's the weekend again, Yulan has something to take time to go home, Chen Dong'er has a cold, and wants to be stopped by He Xiaoshuang, what kind of trouble do you want to make when you are sick?

Yulan promised to bring her something delicious, and Chen Dong'er responded sullenly.

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, everyone in the family has to make new clothes, Daddy and Auntie don't know whether they are fat or thin, plus Yuzhu is a child who grows fast, Yulan can't estimate her size, she has to be re-measured one by one.

As for the fabric, there is nothing to worry about, Yulan has long asked Yumei to pay attention to it, and she will send it back in advance when the time comes.

Originally, the fabric could be bought directly in He Xiaoshuang's store, but He Xiaoshuang would definitely treat these as materials for his own practice and refused to accept money, Yulan felt that this was very bad, and there was always a feeling of taking advantage of others.

Although He Xiaoshuang is generous, it doesn't mean that Yulan can take other people's things as her own family at will, which is too unsophisticated.

Yulan usually pays attention to this, and the clothes she makes from practicing are all hung in the store and sold as clothes. Although it is a work of hand practice, the workmanship is not bad at all, as long as He Xiaoshuang doesn't say it, no one knows that these clothes are made by a seven-year-old child.

On the contrary, because the styles are designed by Magnolia himself, they are very fashionable and beautiful, and they are often bought within two days of hanging out.

In view of this, He Xiaoshuang was even more bold to let Yulan make her own clothes.

Now, Yulan is trying to add some elements of national style to the clothing, and if you want to establish your own brand, you must have your own characteristics, and Yulan firmly believes in this.

Li Aihua went to the vegetable field to get rid of insects and didn't come back yet, and only his grandmother and Yuzhu were at home.

Yuzhu was playing with the rag doll by herself, and her grandmother was watching from the side. Yuzhu is two years old, walks steadily, and speaks very neatly. When he saw Yulan coming in, he threw away the toy and stumbled to her, shouting, "Sister." ”

Yulan suddenly felt her heart soften into a puddle of water.

The last time I came back, Yulan felt that the little girl was a lot stranger to her, so Yulan told He Xiaoshuang that she would come back to stay one night a week to accompany Yuzhu, and He Xiaoshuang had no reason not to be.

Every time Yulan came back for the night, she took Yuzhu to sleep, and after a while, the little girl was familiar with her breath, and now when she saw her, she happily threw herself on her.

Grandma asked Yulan, "Is there anything to do when you come back today?"

It's a very common sentence, but Yulan doesn't know why she suddenly feels very wronged, and she feels ...... Became a guest of this home?

Thinking about it this way, Yulan is not in a good mood.

Grandma saw that Yulan was suddenly depressed, and she knew it in her heart. She reached out and touched Yulan's head and comforted her, "Don't think too much, Xiaoyan will always fly by herself when she grows up." You just think of yourself as a big brother and sister, and adapt to parting in advance. ”

Yulan smiled bitterly, she was not comforted! Facing her grandmother's earnest gaze, what else could Yulan do except nod?

After a while, Li Aihua came back, wearing a hat on his head, his face was tightly covered, only a pair of eyes were exposed, wearing long sleeves and trousers, gloves on his hands, fully armed, and a large watering can for spraying pesticides on his back.

While putting things on the ground, she said to Yulan: "Your little uncle sent a bag of clothes, saying that it was a new style from his factory this year for your sister to wear for the holidays, and I don't know what kind of clothes it is, the package has not been opened, and it is placed in the room." Remember to take it with you when you leave, and have someone bring it to her when the time comes. ”

Yulan looked at Li Aihua, Li Aihua paused, and reluctantly added: "I didn't buy clothes for the two of you......"

Magnolia seemed to be smiling.

“...... Sent money for me to buy clothes for both of you. Li Aihua added, "You two children grow up fast and have a lot of clothes, so I won't spend this money, and I will save it for you first." ”

Magnolia sighed and nodded.

Li Aihua blushed a little, but she had just come back from the field, and her face was already red, but she couldn't see it.

These two girls are getting harder and harder to fool, who are they like?

Yulan saw that A-Niang was in a good mood, and immediately suppressed the doubts in her heart.

My uncle's garment factory has been open for many years, and I haven't seen him send clothes to Sister A in previous years, why did he suddenly remember to send clothes to Sister A this year?

Is it because of the Chinese New Year, my uncle can't go up? Yulan thought about it, and only this reason can be justified.

Forget it, as long as A-Niang is happy.

But Yulan didn't know that she couldn't be happy soon, and the reason was that package. But at this time, she didn't know, and she still happily played with Yuzhu.

In the evening, Chen Li came back from the mountain and brought back a bunch of wild fruits.

There are pale green tea bait, fat and thick bait, verdant and juicy; there are also white tea peaches, the size of a child's fist, the shape is very similar to peaches, it is said that tea bait and tea peach are the products of Camellia oleifera tree lesions, but they are rare snacks for children in rural areas, which can make many children drool.

Yulan remembers that she used to go up the mountain with her friends to pick and eat, and when she saw these things at this time, it was really full of memories.

There is also a kind of wild fruit that tastes sweet and sour, which looks like a strawberry, but it is smaller than a strawberry, and the locals call it April Pick.

Yuzhu ate a few tea baits and stopped eating, grabbed a April bubble and put it in his mouth, and was shivering with sourness, and his funny appearance made Yulan laugh. When Yulan fed her again, the little girl pursed her mouth tightly and refused to answer it.

The adults in the family don't eat these wild fruits, and Yulan is past the age of greed, so she unceremoniously packed them all in bamboo baskets, ready to use them to coax Chen Dong'er.

Chen Dong'er saw the bamboo basket and insisted on letting go, Yulan said that Chen Dong'er reluctantly handed over the fruit in the bamboo basket to her to wash, showing the true colors of a foodie vividly.

The washed fruit is placed on a plate, red and shiny, and it is very cute. Chen Dong'er ate while watching TV, and unconsciously ate all the whole plates. As a result, he fell and couldn't eat dinner, so he was beaten by He Xiaoshuang again and said that Yulan gave Chen Dong'er a helpless look, and watched the excitement throughout the whole process.

Back in the room, Yulan stared at the package sent by her brother-in-law in a daze.

She had a vague guess in her heart, hesitated for a long time, and finally took a deep breath and opened the package.

Magnolia shook off the clothes one by one and spread them on the bed, a total of three sets of clothes.

The style is novel and well-made, but it looks familiar.

Yulan smiled, can you not be familiar with it? I was going to take these drawings to my uncle a year ago, but my aunt said that she couldn't use them and returned them.

Now, these drawings are made into ready-to-wear, hanging unfamiliar signs, except for the wrong color, other details are exactly the same as the drawings.

Yulan couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, because of these drawings, A-Niang was ridiculed by her aunt-in-law, and several people took advantage of the excitement to go back in defeat, and A-Niang was depressed throughout the New Year.

I didn't expect that people didn't want drawings, but they didn't want to get drawings from a few of their own people.

Yulan was curious, how did the little aunt explain the origin of these styles?

Wang Mianmian, who was curious by Yulan, had a headache at this time.

At that time, she took pictures of the drawings that Yushu took with her son's point-and-shoot camera and kept them, and when she began to prepare for the production of summer clothes this year, she was not satisfied with many styles, so she took the risk of using all these styles. Unexpectedly, as soon as the sample came out, the customer took a fancy to it at a glance. Summer clothes are not yet on the market, and orders for these styles have accounted for 60% of all orders.

Li Shaopei is crazy with happiness, he has opened a garment factory for so many years, and he has never seen any clothes that are so popular, so he can't help but move his mind.

Wang Mianmian told him that these designs were bought from others at a high price.

Li Shaopei felt that instead of spending a high price to buy design drawings, it was better to directly use a high salary to poach the people who drew the drawings.

As soon as she told Wang Mianmian about this idea, Wang Mianmian suddenly secretly complained: He is still poaching, he has offended people to death!

What Yumei said at that time, as well as the expression when she spoke, Wang Mianmian remembered it clearly in her heart.

However, Wang Mianmian did not regret saying anything at all, otherwise these poor relatives would be jumping in front of them every day, and they would have responded a lot.

She didn't dare to tell Li Shaopei the truth, so she only said that she couldn't find anyone.

Li Shaopei felt that it was a pity, if he could find that designer, he believed that with his own ability, the company's strength could be raised to a few more levels in the future.

It's a pity that Li Shaopei didn't know that the opportunity that was once at his fingertips was buried by Wang Mianmian himself.

Wang Mianmian's strength pitted her husband, and when the brocade clothing came on the market, she didn't know what it meant to regret it too late.

However, it was too late, and I could only watch others make a lot of money.
