Chapter 172: Qi Help
Hearing Yoyo say that there is a quilt cover now, grandma breathed a sigh of relief. Relieved and Yoyo picked up, and finally looked at two pink floral cloths, one powder blue, one pink green, and basically the same as the one bought in the department store.
However, the quality is several grades higher than the current pure cotton cloth, and the worsted cotton cloth with high count yarn is especially suitable for bedding and children's underwear. Yoyo deliberately found a narrow area similar to the current one, the same batch, each batch of 100 meters.
Youyou also found a batch of dark red narrow gold velvet cloth, because this cloth is thicker, a batch is only 30 meters, and it is enough to make curtains. After reading it, my grandmother said that this kind of cloth was worn as a cheongsam, and no one was willing to make curtains.
got off the car at the puddle, and because there were more things, my grandmother hired a person to pull the floor and arrange the car, and gave him a dollar fare to help transport the goods home.
Before dinner, my grandmother sent five catties of roast mutton to my uncle's house. My aunt asked her, "Sister, have you bought the cloth back?" It's okay for the past two days, let your two nieces and daughters-in-law help put the quilt on." ”
It happened that the second aunt Liu Zhaoxia came out of the cooking, and hurriedly said: "Mother, I discussed with my sister-in-law, and the family put a new quilt on my aunt." Aunt, don't be disgusted, it's all coarse cloth woven by ourselves. ”
Yoyo's eyes flashed when he listened, the coarse cloth is good, this is the authentic hand-woven brocade, and even the cotton thread is hand-spun. So he shouted happily: "Aunt is so good, it's still warm with a coarse cloth quilt." ”
Grandma pointed at her with her finger, "Just you, today I bought six quilts and fabrics, which is enough, you have many children, keep them for yourself." ”
The second aunt was anxious: "Aunt, this is our heart, you have to accept it, and besides, I like it." ”
Grandma saw that she really wanted to give, so she said happily: "Okay, I'll take it." Tomorrow, you two will go and help my aunt put on the quilt. ”
The next day, before the Yoyo family finished breakfast, the aunt and grandmother brought the two aunts here. The patriotic uncle pulled a row of cars and followed behind, and on the car were two quilts prepared by his aunt and a sewing machine for his second aunt.
The second grandmother and Guixiang heard everyone say that they were going to put on the quilt, so they quickly packed up and came to help. Everyone spread out two stalls in the courtyard and put quilts on them separately.
Grandpa was in charge of watching the children, and Yoyo spread a mat on the ground, took out all Didi's toys, and Grandpa used building blocks to teach them to pose, and they had a good time.
The second aunt used a sewing machine to sew the quilt and the quilt surface from the middle, and the 90 cm narrow quilt became a 10 cm wide one. Spread cotton evenly on the inside of the quilt, leaving 20 cm around it. My uncle and grandmother were responsible for weighing cotton, and each bed cover was six catties.
When the second grandmother saw it, she said: "Earlier, when I got married, my mother-in-law gave me a bed quilt, but it was not more than a catty, saying that I was afraid that my daughter-in-law would be lazy because of too much." The mother's family has a good life to accompany the bed, and the life of the new daughter-in-law is difficult for the mother's family.
My mother didn't cover the bed after I got married, and your second master followed my aunt, and there was no one at home, so I put a new quilt on the bed. When I first went to sleep, the kang was hot, and I woke up before dawn, so I didn't feel lazy.
Today's young people can be regarded as catching up with the good years, and the wedding mother's family accompanies two shops and two covers, and the in-laws' family does not dare to give more than a pound, and the less one is also given three pounds. ”
Grandma asked her: "Second grandma, is your old man still living by himself now?"
"It's not like I'm still living by myself, she is so famous, her own son is afraid of her, and my brother and daughter-in-law don't dare to meet her. The poor brother-in-law is not as good as me, I am so far away, she is now staying up to her grandmother's sake, and she will have to be scolded in a few days. The second grandmother said, sighing helplessly.
Uncle and grandmother asked, "Second grandma, she has more than ten years, and she is still so powerful." ”
"Isn't it, now that I'm annoyed, I can still scold for a day, my health is good, how many people are looking forward to her death, and the people in the village say that my brother's face is that good people don't live long, and they will be harmed for 10,000 years.
If it weren't for her, I would have been able to practice like this, and I was lucky not to die in her hands. When she entered, I was just six years old, and I stood on the bench to cook for her, giving her a dry ration at noon and a bowl of porridge in the morning and evening. I didn't let me sleep in the bed at night, and I slept in the firewood nest in the kitchen.
Don't talk about scolding, I can't remember the number of beatings, I can't count the number of beatings that I fainted, if it weren't for my grandmother's family to take me over to live in the winter and spring every year, she might have died in her hands.
According to what she meant, she sold me for money, or my grandmother's family is the master of your second master, although the family is poor, but there are no parents, my grandmother's family is afraid that I will be angry at my mother-in-law's house.
But my brother is a good one, he has followed me since he was a child, and he is also close to me, and he secretly gives me dry food to eat, or I will starve to death. ”
Only then did you understand that the second grandmother's family still had such a superb stepmother, nicknamed "God", and she was a powerful person when she heard it.
Guixiang saw that his mother was sad, so she interrupted: "Mother, can you show me, is it like this?"
The second grandmother glanced at it and told Guixiang: "Okay, that's it, you can hold it with your hands, the width of the four sides must be the same, and if they are different, they will be ugly." ”
The eldest aunt looked up at the work done by Guixiang, and boasted: "Second grandma, Aunt Guixiang is with you, working fast and well, this is only seventeen, and you can handle all kinds of work." ”
The second grandmother said: "It's not that I'm dragged down by my sick body, people say that N's children are in charge of the family early, and the children who are born to my family will also suffer." ”
Guixiang was not happy, "Mother, you are thinking about it again, you and your father are not willing to take a picture of us, we feel that we are happy to follow you." ”
Grandma made a joke of her, "Aunt Guixiang is right, the second grandmother, your children are all good, sensible and diligent, clever and handsome, and you have to find a good mother-in-law." ”
One sentence made Guixiang blush, "Ignore you, you will know to make fun of me." "Bow your head and hurry up to work.
The second aunt said: "My mother's neighbor is in the same village as Aunt Osmanthus, and I heard her say that my second aunt and grandmother are praised in her mother-in-law's family, and she is really skillful, and she is the first in her daughter-in-law." Her mother-in-law was satisfied, and she praised people when she saw them. ”
When the second grandmother heard this, she was also happy. "Hearing what you said, I am also relieved, she has not lived at home since she was pregnant, she has been here a few times in the middle, and she looks very good. ”
In less than an hour, the two quilts were put on, and the next bed was put on. The eldest aunt put the quilt on the rope to dry and told everyone a joke:
It is said that the two mothers do housework, be the mother's quilt, let the girl cook, and the girl is in the kitchen and noodles, and asks while drying: "Mother, there are more noodles." ”
"Add water. ”
After a while, he shouted again: "Mother, there is more water." ”
"Add noodles. ”
There will be more water in one meeting, and more in one meeting. shouted back and forth a few times, and then changed: "Mother, I can't fit it in the basin." ”
Her mother was annoyed: "If I hadn't sewn myself into the quilt, I would have beaten you." ”11
