Chapter 37: Motion sickness
Needlework is not the sewing and mending that Zhong Xiaohe understood at the beginning, that is the most basic, not to mention how many patterns, you have to learn tailoring, as well as embroidery.
Zhong Xiaohe likes cutting the most, she is a girl, and when she sees beautiful clothes, she not only likes to buy them, but also fantasizes about catching knives and cutting them to make more beautiful clothes.
The rice had to be eaten in one bite, and the first thing Yang taught her to cut and sew was the bedding.
Well, although it is still a little far from the beautiful clothes, Xiaohe can endure loneliness.
If you don't go to school, you don't work in the field, you don't make an article to take the top prize, and you don't have the little black fat man to play with, why don't you learn this?
Finally, under the guidance of Yang's family, with occasional auspicious and euphemistic guidance, it took three days to finally complete a new set of quilts.
I can use the quality.
After making the quilt, Yang finally led Zhong Xiaohe to go shopping again, this time with a clear purpose, that is, to buy something to add makeup to his eldest cousin.
Zhong Xiaohe brought all the pocket money she had accumulated, trying to add something tangible to her eldest cousin who had never met.
As an aunt with a certain economic strength, Yang will not be stingy. She chose the best materials in her own cloth shop and took a few more pieces.
"Mother, don't you add a piece of silk and satin material to your eldest cousin?"
"It's not that my mother is reluctant, the silk is a surface light, your eldest cousin can't wear it, and the bottom of the box is pressed white. Your cousin can make her own clothes, give gifts or honor the elderly, and you can get your hands on these materials. ”
As soon as the mother explained, Zhong Xiaohe understood the reason.
My cousin-in-law's family is a small landlord in a neighboring village, and although he has a small amount of wealth, it is also relative to the people in the village, in fact, there are more fields handed down by the ancestors of the family.
Moreover, his family supports two scholars, one is a future cousin-in-law, who has just taken the Tongsheng exam this year, and the other is his younger brother, who has not yet taken the Tongsheng exam. This year, reading is a gold-devouring beast, not to mention that there are two more.
If there is no surplus wealth to call slaves, and if you cook and cook, your cousin has to go to work on her own, or even work in the land, and that is possible.
The two took the fabric and went to the gold and silver store, Yang picked a pair of silver bracelets with enough weight, and chose a silver hairpin, while Zhong Xiaohe pulled his purse, and finally picked a pair of silver earrings with a small daisy pendant.
Originally, as a little sister, I could express my gratitude by sending a handkerchief purse and these embroideries made by myself, but who made Xiaohe classmates not have that level at the moment, so I can only chat with a pair of silver earrings to express my heart.
It is convenient to buy a silver earring online, the style is also novel, and it is not expensive, but well, it is a newcomer, and low-key is the king!
The earrings were light, but they also made her purse half deflated.
The flesh hurts.
Well, it should be, a penny is a dollar, and I can count myself as a gift of two hundred and five. In the past, when a colleague got married, it was also 200 yuan, and as a relative, it was more than 50 yuan, which should be dropped.
A few days later, the Mengguan was on holiday, and a family of three plus two eggs, and brought a maid auspicious, rented a car, and rushed to Yangjia Village early in the morning.
The eldest cousin will only get married tomorrow, and they need to arrive a day early.
This time, I want to see a lot of relatives, and I still feel a little pressure, especially when her mother insisted on bringing her a silver collar and a big silver bracelet, plus she still has two small grabs on her head, and a fat version of Nezha Yingsheng was born, and the pressure was even greater.
The first time Zhong Xiaohe took a carriage, he still took an ancient carriage, and the old Zhong couple was more experienced, and they also brought soft cushions, otherwise some would be upside down.
The natural scenery along the way is not bad, green mountains and green waters, thatched huts and earthen house fence walls, coupled with curling cooking smoke, there is a feeling of outing.
Turning upside down, Zhong Xiaohe actually vomited coercively.
Even if the old clock slowed down the speed of the driver, he still couldn't stop Zhong Xiaohe from vomiting in the dark along the way.
When she arrived at her grandfather's house, Zhong Xiaohe's face was pale and dizzy, with only half a life left, and after Jixiang helped her get out of the car, she only knew that she was in the dark, and a bunch of men, women, young and old came out of a large courtyard.
There were a few familiar faces, and she didn't listen to how her mother and these people greeted her, but immediately a few women came over, put her into a room and let her lie on the kang, but fortunately, Yang followed, she didn't care about anything, only grabbed Yang's hand, and fell asleep in an instant.
There were many people in the house, all of them were women, several women and three girls, it was Zhong Xiaohe's three aunts and three cousins.
These people looked at the girl on the kang, both worried and curious, worried because they knew that this girl was the treasure of the eldest sister-in-law (aunt), and they were curious, this silly girl who had known her for many years was really good?
Of course, the curious people in this list do not include grandmothers and aunts.
Yang was in pain, and wiped the cold sweat for Zhong Xiaohe with a handkerchief, wondering if the child's head had not been raised yet, and he was worried that this bump would be broken.
The second aunt is a thin and tall woman, with thin eyebrows and fine eyes, and she is very careful, so she brought a basin of warm water and wrung a warm towel to Yang.
The grandmother glanced at the second daughter-in-law, her eyes were comforting, and she whispered to the eldest daughter: "This motion sickness is too ruthless, why don't you call the doctor to come and see?" As he spoke, his eyes glanced at his aunt again.
The eldest aunt hurriedly whispered: "I'll call the big egg to call someone." ”
Just heard the old lady say that she wanted to call the doctor, Yang hesitated in his heart, and when he heard that the eldest brother and daughter-in-law did not hesitate to call someone, he ironed it in his heart, but he still stopped: "Don't, it's okay, just rest." ”
Tomorrow's niece will get married, and it's not good to let the doctor in today.
The old lady patted her leg and said, "Don't scream, you're tired from taking the car, so just lie down in your niece's house first, so that you can take care of this Niu Niu at any time." The others are gone, what to do. ”
"Mother, I'm not tired, Da Nizi stays in the house to help me watch, tomorrow is a big day, there are a lot of things outside, I also go out to help."
The biggest girl next to her was busy responding.
The old lady also nodded, waved her hand, and drove her daughter-in-law and granddaughter out.
Yang took out his hand, tucked Zhong Xiaohe's quilt again, and whispered to Da Nizi, then he went out with auspiciousness, at least to give Da Nizi the makeup he brought.
Zhong Xiaohe was in a daze and didn't know how long he had been asleep, before he woke up from his sleep, and felt the hard kang under his body, and he was slightly surprised, and he didn't know why his own bed was instead.
This room is obviously a woman's room, presumably a cousin and her cousin's room.
Although there are many houses in my grandfather's house, there are also many people. There is only one more room, which is still reserved for the Yang family, Huzi can live with his parents, but Zhong Xiaohe is too old, she can only sleep with her cousins.
Before coming, Yang told her that he was afraid that she would not be used to it by then, so he would get vaccinated in advance.
Turning her head, I saw a girl who looked like a mother, sitting on the kang with a bandage and embroidering things.
Hearing the movement, the girl raised her head, put down the things in her hand, her eyes were full of joy and curiosity, and said tentatively: "Xiaohe, are you awake?" ”
My mother said, I will call my cousin Xiaohe in the future, I can't call Niuniu, she is not used to it, I used to see my cousin less, even if I saw it, I couldn't communicate, but I didn't call Niuniu a few times.
The cousin in front of him sat up with a little effort, put his unkempt hair on his head, and replied with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Well, you're a cousin, right?" ”
The girl nodded hurriedly, with surprise in her eyes, and the cousin in front of her was inexplicably happy, and she said softly: "What else is uncomfortable?" ”
Zhong Xiaohe still had an upset stomach, and was about to speak, when his stomach gurgled at this time. Rubbing my stomach, I'm a little embarrassed.
My cousin blinked, couldn't help it anymore, and laughed.
