On the second day, Hu Yingjiang went to find Hu Yingtian, the two brothers discussed for a while, and they didn't know what to say, Tang asked a few times, Hu Yingjiang only said: "You just do your best, don't worry about the rest." ”

She had no choice but to give up, and help make down jackets at Hu Xiaomei's house with peace of mind, and at the same time pay attention to Wei Sanniang's previous procedures, how to make duck down, etc.

The rain was pouring down for more than a month, and finally it stopped, not to mention how muddy the village road outside was, and even the yard was muddy and sewage. Fortunately, it's summer, it's not cold, every time I go out, Fox Xiaomei wears straw sandals, and when she comes back, it's a foot of mud.

A few days after the sunny day, Hu Dayou hurriedly washed the sweet potatoes according to the method that Hu Xiaomei said, cut them into slices, took out dustpans, sieves, herbs, and other things that could be used, and took the sweet potato chips to the middle of the yard to be exposed.

The first batch of down jackets has been sent to the sewing workshop, and in time for the good weather, everyone went home to take out the ones that should be taken out to dry, and the ones that should be washed, and the moldy and damp quilts were also taken to the yard while the sun was good.

Sent away three batches of clothes, temporarily put an end to it, and only after getting the sales situation in front of you can you decide how to do it later, or how much to do.

Fox Otomo went around the field, and the field was full of water, and the seedlings that were planted were so flooded that they didn't even have their heads. Now the hole is being dug to drain the water outside, and the chrysanthemum planted in the vegetable field is completely destroyed. The seeds that were sown were also discarded. Wei Sanniang was distressed with the only remaining chrysanthemum seeds in her pocket.

For people like Hu Yingtian, the chrysanthemum is gone. It won't make much of a difference. But like Xiang's, the man is gone, relying on himself and still carrying the child, the chrysanthemum in the vegetable field is gone, which means that the household is gone, looking at the chrysanthemum seedlings soaked in water, Xiang's eyes are red.

Mrs. Zhou even stood on the edge of the vegetable field and cried and scolded God: "...... You don't open your eyes, the chrysanthemum in a vegetable field is gone, how can you let me live, you don't have long eyes......"

As the village head, he has to pacify the people at this time. Tang Daming went door-to-door to check the situation of chrysanthemum. Not a single chrysanthemum was alive, and the seedlings in the fields were soaked in the rain and washed upside down. There are some people who are quick to plant seedlings and water the fields. Many seedlings have already been drowned. This season's farmland situation is really miserable.

He forcibly endured his sadness and comforted everyone: "Don't worry, everyone. Just drain the water from the field. Let's find a way to drain the water from the ditch into the river, and then everyone should not leave water in the fields, and it is better to drain it. As for the chrysanthemum in the vegetable patch. If it's gone, it's gone, and I'll find a way to apply to the above to see if the government can see if the government can look at the natural disaster and allocate some vegetables for us for free. I have some left in my hand, and if anyone needs to replant it, come to me and get it. ”

At that moment, many people went to Tang Daming to get chrysanthemum seeds.

Fox Dayou asked Wei Sanniang: "Although we have some in our hands, I'm afraid it's not enough, why don't we get some." ”

Wei Sanniang looked at the queue and frowned: "I don't know if there are any more." ”

In the end, Fox Dayou went to line up, but naturally he didn't get it, Tang Daming asked him to go back first, and when the vegetables were sent above, he would be notified door-to-door.

The continuous rain has made it impossible for everyone to grasp this changing God, maybe one moment it is still a sunny day, the next moment it will be black clouds, and then it will rain heavily. Although it has not rained in the past few days, there is a big sun in the first few days, and in the past two days, there are only clouds and no sunlight every day, and occasionally a few black clouds will float.

Fox Xiaomei felt that this day was quite abnormal, and it might rain again. Thinking about the floods in the Yangtze River last year, this made her a little worried. When she was fine, she picked out some eiderdown and duck feathers, and then pulled Wei Sanniang to the market to pull the cloth, and the mother made two down quilts at home, and the quilt was of course tied in rows with threads.

Thirteen looked at the boxy lattice on the quilt, the whole quilt was wide and large, and it was quite warm to the touch, but why did he do this in a hurry this June day.

couldn't help but say to her: "A while ago, my eyes were tired from making clothes every day, and I will rest when I have time now, what are you doing at this time, you don't need it." ”

"I don't need it now, I can use it later. It's fine anyway. Fox Xiaomei said. If you don't make it earlier, you won't be able to make it when the eiderdown runs out. Although she wanted to earn money, she couldn't treat herself badly.

Thinking of this, Hu Xiaomei suddenly thought that she should have gone to buy duck down a long time ago. It's a pity that it's been raining for more than a month, and I don't have time.

On the second day, Fox Dayou and Thirteen went to Weijia Town ten miles away to buy duck down. And Fox Xiaomei cut clothes at home, and everyone in the family cut a piece, including pants, and she planned to make all of them into down. In the future, you don't have to be afraid of the cold in winter.

After noon, Fox Dayou and Thirteen returned, and the two came back with two bags full of duck down and duck feathers. Uncle Wang had already packed the duck feathers and wanted to ask someone to bring a message to Fox Dayou, but unfortunately the rain never stopped, so the duck feathers had been placed there, and the fox Xiaomei checked it carefully, but fortunately Uncle Wang put the duck feathers in a dry place, so that there was no moisture.

In the afternoon, she cleaned all the duck feathers and duck down, and in the next few days, it took seven days to disinfect, clean, and pick and cut.

This time there are not as many eiderdown and duck feathers as last time, only more than 40 catties. Then remove some duck tubes, and unwanted dirty hair, miscellaneous hair, less than forty catties.

After making a down jacket a few years ago, the duck down and duck feathers were only more than 60 catties, and this time I made more than 100 down jackets and jackets, and the duck down has almost been used up, plus she made two more quilts, the usable duck down is gone, and there is a little duck feather.

The forty pounds of eiderdown came back in time.

However, the weather was not good, and the eiderdown was troublesome, but fortunately there was no sun and wind, and the eiderdown was finally dried. There were a total of twelve pieces of clothes and pants for the six people, and each of them was filled with five taels of eiderdown, and six catties of eiderdown were used. Take out some more, and wait for Wei Sanniang to have time to make uppers.

Cotton shoes in winter are a little cold no matter how you wear them, so Hu Xiaomei decided to replace the cotton cloth inside with duck down, which must be warmer. After counting back and forth, there are only thirty catties of duck down left.

A down jacket of four or two duck downs can't even make a hundred. However, the fox Xiaomei in the back has decided to reduce the amount, using four taels of duck down for the mid-length down jacket and three taels or two taels of duck down for the short ones.

The sky is beautiful, the fox Xiaomei dried duck down for a few days are sunny, there is no sun and wind, it happened to sort out the duck down, made a few clothes, and it rained again, first it was drizzle, and then it was a downpour, the wind blew the trees on the side of the road to the east and west, the clothes on the body can be lifted, the wind whistled from the ears, the raindrops flew obliquely with the wind, so that people could not open their eyes.

Fox Otomo and Thirteen came back from selling bean curd from the market, and they were both soaked, but fortunately the list they brought back from the sewing workshop was not wet.

After a few days, he didn't go out again, and helped Hu Xiaomei make clothes at home.

This time, the order is for down jackets, a total of 200 pieces. There are many branches of the sewing workshop, famous, take the first batch of jackets of Fox Xiaomei to try selling, no one asked at first, and then after the sewing workshop guys vigorously publicized and explained, those old customers tried it in person, only to find that this jacket is really a good thing. Things sell out in a day. The second batch of jackets were all old customers who had given a deposit before, and as for the down jackets sent by the third batch, the sewing workshop was not in a hurry to hang them out.

This also completely broke the plan that Hu Xiaomei mentioned before, with the first two batches of jacket advertisements, there is no need to do any more activities later, and some people are scrambling to order jackets, which makes people fully appreciate that good things are regardless of time and season.

These two hundred jackets are just a prelude, and I am afraid that there will only be more and more in the future.

Because Fox Dayou knew that there was not much eiderdown at home, he also told the shopkeeper Wu the truth, and the shopkeeper Wu bluntly said that he would do it tightly at home first, and he would find a way to help buy the lack of eiderdown.

This also saves Hu Xiaomei some trouble.

There are good things and bad things. Shopkeeper Wu went to buy eiderdown by himself, and after a few more times, I am afraid that he can also see the tricks and know what can and cannot be wanted. I'm afraid that in the future, the sewing workshop will imitate it by itself.

However, even if the sewing shop itself does not imitate it, other shops will do it. At present, Hu Xiaomei can't control these, I just hope that those counterfeit products will come out in the future, and the effect will be greatly reduced without her professional disinfection process.

There was no down jacket this time, so, Hu Xiaomei only invited Xiang's, Wang's, Kong's, and later Mei's heard that there was a special trip to ask, Mei's work was not bad, and Hu Xiaomei agreed to let her stay, and the other fox Xiaomei who made clothes together last time did not invite again.

Some people look okay on the surface, but they are always not careful. Such a person, Hu Xiaomei would rather not use it.

Moreover, now the big guy is very familiar with making jackets, and there is no need for Hu Xiaomei to tell them, and several people can tacitly divide the labor, that is, in addition to the poor needlework of Hu Xiaomei, others, such as tailoring, how to sew the sleeves, etc., are already familiar. So, a few people don't get in the way.

A few people went to Hu Xiaomei's house every morning in their robes, and Xiang Wu also ate here, and went back later in the afternoon. Fox Otomo and Thirteen help cook and clean up the house. Every day when it rains, I still have to go out to cut pigweed, and Thirteen often comes back when he is soaked. But God didn't stop raining and there was no way, so Wei Sanniang had to ask Fox Dayou to prepare ginger soup, so as not to catch a cold.

When the Wang family saw it, they couldn't help but look at Thirteen differently, and the Xiang family was even more envious: "Your family has Thirteen to help, so you don't have to worry about hard work." This is also fate, when Otomo saved Thirteen, Thirteen is now willing to help your family work. ”

"yes, Thirteen, this kid is very good." Wei Sanniang said.

The Wang family nodded: "It's a pity that I can't remember something in my head." ”

As a few people were talking, they saw Thirteen carrying a backpack on his back, wearing a robe, and coming back from the outside wet, as soon as he entered the house, he said to Fox Dayou and Wei Sanniang: "Uncle, aunt, the fox family asked you to come over, saying that the old lady fox was seriously ill." (To be continued......)

PS: I went out early this morning, and I came back at night, and I was so sleepy that I had to pass it on today, and I would come back tomorrow tomorrow.
