Chapter Forty-Eight: A Troubled New Year (Part I)

In the blink of an eye, the New Year was about to be celebrated, and Yang Zhi began to get busy: busy preparing new clothes for a family of four, busy calculating and giving red envelopes to the workers, busy preparing New Year's goods, and busy visiting relatives and friends, and starting to ...... In a word, it is: busy.

Looking at the clothes that my mother bought, let's just call them clothes, they are just unformed cloths, Zhang Lan was quite speechless: What are these? There are no finished clothes, all of them are bought cloth, and I plan to let the tailor do it. Looking at the pile of blue and black cloth, I imagined the craftsmanship of the tailors now, of course, there is no problem with the craftsmanship, but the style is made...... It's really flattering! It is estimated that it can only be made in a style like a tunic.

It's better to design it yourself, Zhang Lan scratched her head, although she is not an expert in this, but she has seen so many various clothing styles in later generations, at least she knows what looks good, she doesn't know how to design but she always has an eye! There is a good saying: although I have never eaten pork, I have always seen pigs running away, right?

As soon as she thought of it, she found paper and pencils, and Zhang Lan began to draw on the white paper: Who will design it first? Let's give it to Dad! The old man runs around outside all day long, either in a green military uniform or a blue tunic all day long, and he is really dirty! Spread it out and throw the face of our reborn people!

I designed two sets for my father: one was a beige casual jacket made of fine woolen fabric; One is a black three-button suit, considering that my father is not the type to stay in the office all day and not go out, the fabric is initially set as a blend of wool and polyester - I don't know if I can buy it.

Then there is my mother's: my mother also has two sets, and my mother is still young, so she tends to be younger in terms of color selection: one is a beige trench coat with half-long lapels, which is more suitable for wearing from late autumn to spring; The other set is a white women's small jacket, both designs are more casual style, I believe that the mother who is not yet 30 years old will like it very much.

After that, it's for myself and my sister.,It's easy to do.,It's good that the children's clothes are bright and lively.。 As for Xiao Chenxi's clothes, just take two sets of princess costume designs in the later life to surprise the eyeballs of the ground.

After the design is completed, I am depressed that there is no way to color the design, and the effect of coloring with crayons is not as good as just like this. There was no way, Zhang Lan had to make detailed notes on each picture next to it, carefully explaining the design features and precautions of each dress. Satisfied, flicked the design drawing that was finally drawn on his hand, Zhang Lan suddenly found in frustration that it seemed that the problem of the fabric was not easy to handle, as if this thing was not easy to buy in this county? In this damn era, Zhang Lan hated it so much.

At night, I handed over the design to my parents to see, and suddenly, the two were attracted by the exquisite clothing styles on the pictures, who said that liking beautiful clothes is only a woman's patent? Just look at the corners of Zhang Zongjun's mouth that is still drooling and drooling, and the attraction of beautiful clothes to men does not have to be much less attractive to human beings, the same is irresistible. As for Xiao Chenxi, Khan, and Zhang Lan found that there is no difference between robots and humans in terms of smelly beauty!

Seeing the note on the material next to it, the two of them were suddenly depressed: a good relationship also requires good material! Expecting to rush to the market to buy some is not possible.

"I estimate that these materials are enough to be sold in the county," Zhang Lan explained on the side, and began to agitate vigorously, "Tomorrow you go to the city to have a look, I guess it will be there, by the way, find a tailor with good craftsmanship there to make the clothes, I believe that the craftsmanship of those tailors should be much better than those in our village, and I can present my design better." ”

"Then go," Yang Zhi held the design in his hand, his eyes were shining with little stars, and he tried his best to persuade her husband, her eyes were bright with little stars, no different from the little girl who saw a fairy tale, "Anyway, there are things that I can't do all day long, and it's not bad for this day or two, isn't it?" ”

"Then let's go," Zhang Zongjun hesitated, and finally couldn't resist the power of the double offensive of his clothes and wife, and lost his armor and lost his armor.

On the 28th day of the lunar month, despite the strong opposition of the workers, Zhang Zongjun still decided to give the workers a holiday, and each person gave a red envelope to go home for the New Year.

On the day of the New Year, according to my father's wishes, I invited my grandparents and my whole family here to celebrate the New Year. Zhang Lan is not very happy, to tell the truth, Zhang Lan has no feelings for this big family, and is even polite, and is very tired of some people. I don't want to ruin my father's interest at this time.

Zhang Lan understands her father's idea very well, although she doesn't support this idea very much.

There are more than 20 people in the family, and half of them are children, the eldest is already in his teens, and the younger one is still in the mother's belly.

Where there are children, never expect to be quiet, as long as the children exist, even the women who claim to be two can be compared to a thousand ducks must be willing to bow down, because you never know what is going on in these little heads. Zhang Lan was not interested in and had the courage to grab the candy and melon seeds that were no longer spilled on the ground with these cousins who were still dragging their noses, and they were bored and Xiao Chenxi moved a small stool to sit there, and watched a group of little guys make trouble while eating melon seeds, and watched the monkey show that didn't cost money.

A group of men were drinking water in the house and laughing loudly, loud enough to lift the roof, Zhang Lan wondered, this guy has kept this high voice for an hour, and he is not tired of shouting at him in such a straight voice? It seems that this one, it should be said that Zhang Lan's second uncle, usually doesn't have such a loud voice? It seems that it is necessary to strengthen the roof again, otherwise it is very likely that the walls of the house are fine, and the roof will not be able to hold up first.

This guy should be compared with Pavarotti, I don't know if poor Pavarotti will be ashamed and embarrassed, Zhang Lan thought.

Some of the women are busy washing vegetables and cooking, and the small drying platform in the yard is full of all kinds of ingredients; Some are making dumplings, and they have put small wooden boards full of square size, and there are already five such planks next to them. Thanks to Zhang Lan for making the wise decision to open a canning factory, otherwise there would be no place to put these dumplings.

It's hard to believe that so many things can be wiped out by these guys in a while. Zhang Lan stared at these things, pondering for a long time, and didn't understand how so many things could fit in, as if these things were much more than the belly of these guys combined, both in volume and weight?

I don't know who once said that human potential is infinite! Zhang Lan had always been unimpressed by this before, and it was only now that Zhang Lan was deeply impressed by the profound insights of the sages.

The dinner of the whole big family finally arrived late at two o'clock in the afternoon thanks to the efforts of a group of female dependents.

After putting off a 10,000 firecrackers thinking about the auspicious wishes of the coming year, the children's minds were obviously not on eating, and they squatted on the ground where the firecrackers had just been put off to look for dumb firecrackers, looking for a second chance to set off firecrackers, and the wolves in the house with hungry eyes glowing green were much smarter, knowing that firecrackers were far less important than filling their stomachs, and they sat around the huge table at a speed far exceeding Liu Xiang's speed - there were too many people, and a table was obviously unable to sit open, and it was made of two tables and put together.

Zhang Lan seriously doubted that these guys deliberately didn't eat in the morning, and kept their stomachs to eat a big meal, otherwise they couldn't wait for the old man to come to the table, no matter how bad they were, wouldn't they wait for the old man to come to the table?

The women went out to look for the little ones who were still squatting on the ground like sappers detecting mines, carefully searching for any chance of firecrackers that might be left behind, and seeing that these little guys were unwilling to go in, the women were anxious, and they slapped their buttocks a few times when they went up, and scolded fiercely: "Little rabbit cub, a loser, so many delicious things don't go in?" Kill you unknown thing! ”

The children were dragged into the house with great reluctance and reluctantly, staring at the firecracker paper on the ground with their heads stubbornly and stubbornly, and their pitiful appearance made Zhang Lan feel as if these women had done something terrible and harmful.

Finally arranged in a noisy manner, Zhang Lan looked at these guys with "I'm here to take advantage" written on their faces, and sighed speechlessly, what kind of family is this?

Before Zhang Lan picked up the chopsticks, she heard an aunt say to Yang Zhi, "The fourth family, it's not me who said you, what do you say you want such a girl to do, you can't provide for your old age and can't give your son a daughter-in-law, according to me, you just find someone to make a promise next year, or how much money will you have to waste in a year?" ”
