Chapter 19: Shameless
For Huanxi, although handicraft made her earn a lot of money, she never regarded it as a kind of work. Handicraft is more like a way for her to pass the time, by the way to confirm her interests, often she is interested in what handicraft, will go to learn. Of course, this is also because she has no financial pressure, so she can do whatever she wants.
Therefore, there are a lot of things in Huanxihui, everything you can think of, she basically dabbles in it, because of her good talent, most of them are very handy. She can't do anything except for a craft like embroidery that requires years of practice, and the craftsmanship is very average, of course, if it's cross-stitch, bead embroidery, ribbon embroidery, velvet embroidery, she asks herself that the level is still good.
- Of course, to become such a handicraft expert, in addition to her own talent, she also has the relationship that the local tyrant's father does not hesitate to hire various master teachers for her.
Huanxi never thought that one day she would use the sewing skills she learned to mend clothes.
In this era, it is not strange to have patches on clothes, it should be said that it is strange to have no patches on clothes. But according to the concept of joy, coupled with her obsessive-compulsive disorder, she felt that patching either made the clothes more aesthetically pleasing, or had to be unrecognizable.
The tools at hand are limited, so there is no need to think about embroidery, the fabric is only cyan, black and gray, and the thread is only one more white, and the material is messy. Huanxi wasted some effort, and it was only that the patches on the clothes of several men in the family were not so obvious, but if you looked closely, you could still see that there was a hole in the hem of her own clothes, and she made a cyan cloth flower out of fabric and sewed it up. She herself is not particularly satisfied, but Mizhen is very rare. Huan looked at her eyes, rummaged through the cabinet and found a piece of rag with small flowers, made the same little flower for her to sew on the sleeve, made her so beautiful that even her eyes narrowed.
When Huanxi was almost mending all the torn clothes at home, there was a sudden sound of a strong knock on the door outside.
Who's coming at this time?
Huanxi opened the door and saw Song Mengping standing at the door with an oil-paper umbrella in a puff.
"Didn't you say that you came to my house to play? I waited for a long time and didn't see you come to the door!" Seeing Huanxi, Song Mengping complained unhappily.
To be honest, Huanxi really forgot about it, and thought it was just a child casually saying that. Of course, she won't tell the truth, otherwise the little girl will be annoyed.
"Isn't it like I can't leave? It's raining, and Feng Zhen is still so young. Huanxi said.
Song Mengping easily believed it, "Then forget it, it's good that I'm coming to you." ”
She pursed her lips and smiled a thief, "I have big news for you here." ”
"What?" Huanxi didn't take it to heart, and while helping her put the oil-paper umbrella away, he led her into the house.
Song Mengping said while following behind: "Zhou Xinghua came to you to borrow money yesterday, right?"
Huan Xi was stunned for a moment, and said a little strangely: "How do you know?" There was no one else at the place of the incident at that time except them, she and Song Weimin naturally didn't say it, and Aimin was the same, could it be ...... Is it Zhou Xinghua?
"Now the whole Songjiazhuang people know. Song Mengping pursed her lips and said.
"What do you mean?" Huanxi frowned.
Song Mengping greeted Song Aiguo and the others, picked up a small bench and sat down and said, "You must not have thought that Zhou Xinghua would come to you to borrow money, and it was simply instructed by her mother." ”
Hearing this, Huanxi's eyes widened, "Do you mean ......?"
Song Mengping nodded and said: "Originally, others wouldn't know about their own idea, but Zhou Xinghua didn't know what she said when she went back, which made her aunt angry, and then accidentally spoke loudly." You know in our village, you can't hide anything if you are loud, but won't it be known?"
"My sister said, Zhou Xinghua's mother didn't have a good idea at all, she asked Zhou Xinghua to come to you to borrow money, and she didn't plan to pay it back at all. Moreover, nine times out of ten, even if she gets the money from your side, she will not let Zhou Chunhua go. ”
Huanxi laughed angrily, speaking of Zhao Zhenzhen and Yang Zhexiu in their previous lives, they were also very annoying, but they were shameless like this...... To be honest, not really.
Song Mengping took out the flower rope from her pocket, turned over a trick herself, and then let Huanxi turn it over, and said with no empty words: "So I tell you, there are few good people in the Zhou family, especially Zhou Xiaobao and his aunt, don't give them good things in the future." ”
After a pause, she couldn't help but say, "Instead of giving it to them, it's better to give it to me." Anyway, she was actually very greedy for the candy wrappers and fruit hard candies that her eldest brother sent back.
Huanxi couldn't help laughing, and asked again: "When this matter came out, the people in the village didn't say anything?"
Unlike their family, which lives on the edge of the village, Song Mengping's family lives in the center of the village, and they can't hide any rumors. Not to mention, just look at Song Mengping, their family is very gossipy.
"What is there to say?" Song Mengping pouted and said, "I heard Sister Meng Juan say that Zhou Xiaobao and his aunt are not good things. ”
She leaned into Huanxi's ear and whispered: "Let me tell you, Zhou Xiaobao's father and his four brothers are the most unpromising for him, not to mention that he is not in good health, he is still lazy to do it, I heard that he used to mix with some indiscreet people." At that time, he couldn't marry a daughter-in-law nearby, but later married Zhou Xiaobao and his aunt. My fourth aunt said that the Zhao family is not a good family, the family is patriarchal, and they don't treat women as people. The reason why Zhou Xiaobao's mother married his father was because no one looked down on her at all. I heard that she was born prematurely, and she couldn't eat enough at home since she was a child, and her body was broken, and the older generation said that it would be more difficult for her to give birth to children in the future. The old Zhao family really couldn't find someone to marry her with a large amount of money, so they had to marry her into the Zhao family. As a result, she married into the Zhou family, and she lost two children at the beginning, and Mrs. Zhou was so angry that she had to spend money to see a doctor and regulate her body, so Zhou Chunhua had them. ”
Speaking of this, Song Mengping's voice became even quieter, "Let me tell you, Mrs. Zhou is also patriarchal, and she has more granddaughters, so she wants to send a few away, but several daughters-in-law refused at that time." However, others are reluctant to have their daughters, but Zhou Xiaobao and his aunt want to keep their daughters as laborers. Look at now, whether it's Zhou Chunhua or Zhou Xinghua, which one is not the same as her little maid?"
In rural areas, some families have too many children to support themselves, so they will give them away. But this is not necessarily a bad thing, people like Song Erzhu who regard Huanxi as their own still account for the majority.
If Zhou Chunhua's sisters can be adopted, life will only be better than now.
