Chapter 24 Dislike the clothes that others don't want

The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier.

Wu Guifang made a conservative estimate and felt that it had been raining heavily outside for more than three hours.

Finding that the rain would not stop for the time being, Wu Guifang began to assign tasks to everyone.

"The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, and the third daughter-in-law, a few of you will help me wash my clothes today."

"I went to the county with your father that day, bought some old clothes and came back......"

After saying this, Wu Guifang still pretended to be and returned to his wooden house.

Under the stunned eyes of everyone, Wu Guifang staggered out of two sacks of old clothes.

Seeing his old wife, Wu Hongsheng, who had already guessed where these things came from, stood up from the ground and strode over.

"Gui Fang, these clothes are very heavy, let me mention them."

As he spoke, Wu Hongsheng picked up the two bags of clothes and walked over easily.

After walking to the middle of the cave, Wu Hongsheng poured out all the two bags of old clothes.

Wu Guifang was right just now, these clothes are indeed quite old.

And it's also very dirty, with a peculiar smell.

However, for the Wu family, who are about to be unclothed, these clothes have solved their urgent need!

They didn't know what was going on, but as the rain outside became heavier, they noticed that the temperature was getting colder and colder.

The little clothes on them, the straw on the ground, and the fire burning in the middle of the cave didn't make them feel warm at all.

Now when I see this large area in front of me, dirty, gray, and smelly clothes, everyone's eyes are shining.

"Daddy, is this for us?"

Wu Guifang listened, smiled and nodded.

"That's right."

"There are adults and children in these clothes, and there are men and women. It's all unwanted clothes that someone else has worn. It's dirty. However, you can still wear it after washing it. ”

Before Wu Guifang crossed over, he inherited his father's family business. Turned into a rag-collecting one.

Wu Guifang's brain is very flexible.

She collects rags not only from scrap copper and iron, but also from old clothes and shoes.

In fact, it is quite profitable to sell old clothes and shoes.

Wu Guifang's previous purchase price was three yuan a catty. Old shoes cost two cents a pair depending on how good they are.

As long as Wu Guifang sells it, she can sell it for 5 yuan a pound when she buys old clothes. And the shoes are based on the quality of the new and old,...... The tallest can be sold for a dollar a pair. The lowest, that's also Sanmao.

Wu Guifang's strategy of small profits but quick turnover. The more things she has at the scrap yard, the more money she earns.

The clothes in the two hemp cloth bags in front of me are already old and can no longer be used, which can be described as garbage.

Normal people generally don't pick up this kind of clothes to wear. Only the kind of poor people who can't be poor anymore, or the children in the family have a lot of children, they will collect this kind of clothes, carefully rub them with water twice, and let their children wear them.

However, for the current Wu Guifang, she has no choice, let alone a choice.

There are more than 30 of them, and now they have reached the point where they are not clothed.

In just a few days, Wu Guifang has collected a lot of useful information.

She found that in ancient times, productivity was really backward!

The silk products here can only be worn by wealthy dignitaries.

Ordinary people usually wear cotton shirts.

Moreover, the dyes of ancient societies were really poor. Even if it is the clothes worn by dignitaries, the clothes on their bodies will be wrinkled after being washed more than a dozen times. Therefore, all year round, they will cut new clothes to wear.

As for the common people who live at the bottom of society,...... In fact, there are also three, six, nine and so on.

Civilians living at the foot of the imperial city, in general, living conditions are not bad. Cotton clothes are commonly worn.

If it is far away from the imperial city, such as the southwest, northwest, or north, in fact, the clothes worn by the vast majority of the people are made of hemp.

Southwest, northwest, are widely cultivated jute.

Jute is a cash crop that has a wide range of uses. You can eat it, you can make clothes, you can make hemp rope, you can make burlap bags......

However, when worn on the body, Mai is not particularly warm, and it is particularly rough and wears the skin.

The Wu family had three acres of hemp fields in the past. Later, it was confiscated. But the Wu family still took this opportunity to save a lot of linen.

However, the linen cloth is now almost useless.

The linen clothes are rough, and the linen clothes are durable,...... But if the linen cloth is also three years new, three years old, and another three years of sewing and mending, in the end, it still can't wrap the human body.

……

As soon as Wang Jinlian saw the old clothes in front of her, she didn't like it at first.

She didn't care what others thought, she pinched her nose directly, and her urn voice was disgusted, "Daddy, why are these old clothes so dirty and smelly, and so dark?" ”

"I say to you, don't wear this garment that no one else has worn. Because you don't even know if these clothes were pulled from the dead people! ”

"As long as I think in my heart, these black clothes are all ripped from the dead people, and my words in my heart are full of panic. ……”

Seeing her father-in-law and mother-in-law, the ugliness on her face, especially the dissatisfaction in her mother-in-law's eyes, Wang Jinlian didn't know why, and a flash of happiness flashed in her heart.

Hehe, she just did it on purpose.

She just wants to make all of them unhappy!

When the rest of the family is unhappy, she will feel happy in her heart!

Every time Wang Jinlian thinks of it, since she married into the Wu family, she has not enjoyed a good day, and her mother-in-law is lazy and lazy, she doesn't do anything every day, and she can eat her father-in-law every day, and she doesn't know where to save the tribute rice, she feels very uncomfortable!

They're all human!

Why can she, Wu Guifang, live such a good life? Why can she be held in the palm of a man's hand?

And she wants to live this tasteless life......

Thinking that she had never received a day of fair treatment in this family, Wang Jinlian felt a wave of anger, which burned in her chest all the time.

Wang Jinlian deliberately said such a thing, and her man Wu Dahu felt at first that she was a typical person who had nothing to do.

However, Wu Dahu soon felt that what his daughter-in-law just said was quite reasonable......
