After buying cotton, Zhou also went to the grain store to buy some grain, and the three of them planned to go back, Lin He suddenly remembered something, and asked the two of them to wait for her, saying that some things had been forgotten to buy, and when she came back, she had a few buns in her hand.

Lin He remembered what he promised the children, although eating steamed buns is a bit of a luxury for them now, but the things promised to the children must be done. Zhou looked at the bun in Lin He's hand, and said with a smile, "The little child's family, forget it, why do you spend so much money." Lin He smiled and didn't speak, now that the things are almost finished, he plans to go back.

When she got home, Huang saw the rags she bought and blamed her, saying, "It's a waste of money, five big dollars, you can buy a pound of brown rice, what's the use of buying such rotten cloths." ”

Lin He didn't explain so much to her, put the cloth head aside, took out the steamed buns he bought and handed them to a few small ones, the small ones saw that there were buns to eat, and the ones who screamed and jumped took them aside to eat, and at noon, left the Zhou family to eat here.

Lin He took out the uneaten pig water that Huang bought at the market a few days ago, and boiled the large intestine because it was put in water, with a thick layer of lard on it, fried wild vegetables with lard, and then fried the pig lungs with spicy seeds, fried a big bowl, made some wowotou, stewed some sweet potatoes, and everyone was full. Because the Lin He family sent some pigs to their family last time, Zhou knew that these were pigs in the water, so he didn't ask much.

After eating, the Zhou family went back, and Lin He took out those rags and planned to twist them together with cotton to make winter clothes. Lin He chose the cloth that was not too broken and some beautiful colors, and waited to see if he could do something else.

Its practical rags and cotton together to make winter clothes is the same as making cloth shoes and soles, the rags into a thick layer, a layer of cotton in the middle, and then the sewing jacket can also be warm, of course, not all cotton as warm, but than a very thin cotton winter coat must be warmer.

I think the family has been like this for so many years, the family should be very hardy, originally three catties of cotton can only make three winter clothes, now some rags in it should be able to make four pieces, if you can buy some rags next time, you can also make bed quilts, so that winter clothes and quilts don't have to worry, everyone can also warm through this winter.

Huang Shi saw Lin He go to the padded jacket like this, but he felt very strange, no one had ever done this, so he asked, "Erya, why did you do this?"

Lin He is not afraid of goofs, saying that I have seen others do quilts in the town, I think since this can be made quilts, it is also possible to make clothes, Huang nodded, think that this daughter is really smart, she can draw inferences like this at a young age, but this method is indeed excellent.

I'm not afraid that it will freeze in winter, in the past, the family was a family who didn't go outside much in winter, just picked up more firewood to burn the kang, and spent the whole winter at home, it doesn't matter to adults.

But children don't want to stay at home all day and want to go out to play, but when they go outside, because of the thin clothes they wear, they are also cold snot and tears, and they will inevitably get sick when they come back, so they don't dare to go out.

After Huang saw Lin He wearing winter clothes like this, he also understood this principle, so he selected cotton and usable rags to help Lin He make them.

Lin He asked Huang to take out the old winter clothes he had worn before he came, to see if there were any that could be worn, and Huang took out a few winter clothes, which were the kind of winter clothes that were slightly thicker than single clothes like cotton jackets, and the three of them had them.

Lin He plans to make these three catties of cotton into four winter coats, and make one for the eldest brother, in fact, the original ones can still be used, and the original big ones can be worn by the small ones, so that the four winter clothes do not need to use new fabrics, and the two old ones can be worn by Sanya and Xiaobao, and then two winter clothes can be sewn on them, and then a new blouse can be made.

The new smock Er Ya and the eldest brother used to wear can be made into Xiaobao and Sanya, and the second girl can wear and change Huang's old clothes, as long as a new smock is made for Dabao. Because Dabao is a boy who grows fast, last year's clothes can't be worn for a long time. In addition, Dabao has been outside for a long time and also needs a slightly decent clothes, as for Huang and Lin Erniu, Lin He plans to buy a few catties of cotton next time to embroidery and come back to make a winter coat and a quilt for one of them, and it doesn't cost much.

I heard Huang say that this year is better than in previous years, in the past years Erya did not do embroidery, this income is not available, Lin Erniu also failed to go to the landlord's house to build a house, and there is no income in winter, so this year it is okay to make a quilt with two cotton clothes like this.

Throughout the afternoon, Huang and Lin He finished sandwiching four cotton clothes, and let Huang make the blouse, Lin He is not at that level for the time being, and he still can't make a dress, and there are still some rags left.

Lin He picked it up, took a larger piece of cloth and sewed it into the shape of a Winnie Bear, and then stuffed some remaining rags in it, and after stuffing it in, the bear propped it up, although the cloth was a coarse cloth, but it looked really cute, Sanya and Xiaobao came to grab it when they saw it, but they still let Xiaobao take it.

Sanya's eyes were red with her mouth flattened, there is no child who doesn't like toys, especially in such a backward era, what chance can such a poor family have to see toys, Lin He pinched Sanya's little face.

During this time, life is much better than before, although it is not every meal of big fish and meat, but it is not hungry and full at all, Sanya's smiling face has also grown some meat, Lin He said to him, "Sister will sew you a more beautiful one." ”

Sanya nodded, Lin He sewed Sanya with two different colors of cloth for Qizai, Sanya couldn't put it down in his hand, Lin He saw it, and a thought rose in his heart.

In this year, some children from rich families should be willing to spend money to buy toys for children, in the set, Lin He also saw some toys similar to cloth tigers and rag dolls for sale, but there are very few types, and they are not delicate enough, and the color is not good.

It would not be a good way to sell some of the doll patterns from his previous life by himself, so Lin He made a few bears and a small pumpkin with yellow cloth from the remaining rags, and then took them in to show the Huang family.

Huang's eyes lit up when he saw it, and he said, "The second girl is a clever hand." ”

Lin He said, "Mother, I want to take these toys to the store on the set to consign, do you say anyone wants them?" ”

Huang also thought it was feasible, and said, "I think it's okay, you can take Sanya to the next town tomorrow, and send a winter coat to the eldest brother by the way, I will make the eldest brother's winter coat first tonight, and ask about this by the way." ”

After a while, he continued, "The next town is a little far away, you can take Sanya to the entrance of the village early tomorrow to take an ox cart." ”

Lin He responded, one night Xiaobao and Sanya held the toy and refused to put it down, even when they were sleeping, they also held it in their arms, watching Xiaobao and Sanya like this toy so much, I heard them say that this afternoon the two of them also held the toy in front of the children outside for an afternoon, saying that many children like these toys, and asked them where they bought it.

Lin He was also so excited that he couldn't sleep, if this can really be successful, then the life of the family can get better and better, although it is not to say that he made a fortune by this, but he should be able to make a fortune, it is best to be able to make a fortune before others imitate it, and with the capital, he can do more things. Thinking about it, Lin He fell asleep, and when he fell asleep, he still had a smile on his face.
