"One hundred and fifty pounds." Yan Rushan started the tractor and turned around and walked back, "Twenty catties of cotton, the fabric is cotton, enough for you to make five clothes, and some of the good fabrics are defective, and you can use them to make bedding." ”

"And how much fabric?" Zhong Yuxiu's eyes were bright.

Yan Rushan slightly bowed, "Someone sent it." ”

"They're so generous?" Fabric was in high demand in this day and age.

"Knowing that it was a whole wild boar, they happened to buy a batch of defective fabrics, and when they knew that I wanted fabrics, they gave two horses."

It's not a few meters, it's two; One piece of cloth is more than 33 meters, and two horses are more than 66 meters. Obediently, with so many fabrics, you don't have to worry about fabrics for two years.

Zhong Yuxiu asked excitedly, "What color?" ”

"One is plaid gray, one is light red, and there is no superfluous pattern for defective products." Yan Rushan explained again that defective products are generally sold cheaply, basically for internal consumption, and rarely are sold; Unless there is a relationship, it can be seen how good the connections of those people in the black market are.

"That's better." Zhong Yuxiu was excited, silently calculating how much cotton is needed to make clothes, and how much cotton is needed to make quilts; Before he finished counting, he heard Yan Rushan's voice ring in his ears again: "The cotton I bought is a cotton tire, which is measured according to four sets of clothes and two sets of bedding." ”

Zhong Yuxiu suddenly felt happy, sure enough, it was right to go out and fight a wild boar, otherwise, where would so many things come from.

On the way back, Zhong Yuxiu remained excited, and the excitement was still undiminished until the educated youth clicked.

Moved the things into the Educated Youth Academy, and the educated youths heard the sound and surrounded them.

"Comrade Zhong, Comrade Yan, are you back?"

"How can there be so many things?"

Luo Jianmin stepped forward and paced around the pile of hills on the ground.

Sun Ruhong and Jiang Mei stepped forward and pulled Zhong Yuxiu and asked, "You and Comrade Yan are going to the county seat again?" ”

"Well, there is no harvest in the mountains, and I want to get cloth and cotton as soon as possible; I asked Brother Yan to take me to the county seat, but I didn't expect things to go very smoothly, not only did I get the things I needed, but I also came back with some food. Zhong Yuxiu smiled like a flower, innocent and happy, "Now I don't have to worry about food, I can get more food next year, and I can go up the mountain less." ”

Sun Ruhong and Jiang Mei looked at the hill piled together in a daze for a while.

"It's time to go up the mountain less, how dangerous it is in the mountains!" Putting aside the complicated thoughts, Sun Ruhong and Jiang Mei were sincerely happy for her, "Now that the food is enough, you can rest assured that the cat is winter." ”

Zhong Yuxiu nodded again and again, "There are too many things, and I have to trouble the two sisters to help." ”

"Raise your hand."

Sun Ruhong waved her hand happily and called Shangjiang Mei to help move fabrics, cotton tires, snacks, shampoo powder, soap and other items into their room; The grain was put into the cellar of the stove room, and everything was put together, leaving three male intellectuals to smash their mouths.

In the room, Zhong Yuxiu took out four sets of cotton tires and tried them on her body, all of them were quite suitable, "Sister Hong, Sister Jiang Mei, when I make the cotton jacket, I will return the clothes to you." ”

"Don't be in a hurry, you do it slowly; You don't have a thick quilt either, why don't you make a quilt first? Seeing so many things, Sun Ruhong and Jiang Mei were envious.

Sun Ruhong nodded, "No, cotton is all cotton tires, we can help you make a set of quilts to cover them; Otherwise, we are not in a hurry to put on your clothes, which are the sin of the evening. ”

The two watched Zhong Yuxiu buy the household they have little by little, and they understood better than anyone how difficult it was for Zhong Yuxiu to do these things; Not being impressed is fake, but it definitely won't blush.

Zhong Yuxiu hesitated a little and responded, "Then I'll listen to the two sisters, make the quilt cover first; After the quilt cover is ready, I will make clothes, and I will trouble the two sisters again. ”

"It's okay, we're idle." Sun Ruhong glanced at Zhong Yuxiu's simple and thin futon with a smile, "Why don't you go to my bed to do it?" The quilt on my bed is thick and warm. ”

"Good idea." Jiang Mei picked up a cotton tire and went to Sun Ruhong's bed.

Seeing this, Zhong Yuxiu picked a light red cloth and followed, and the three of them climbed onto the bed and covered the lower half of their bodies with quilts; Sun Ruhong found scissors, needles and threads again, cut the fabric according to the size of the cotton tire, sewed in one direction by three people, and sewed the quilt cover in more than an hour, the cotton tire was stuffed in, and fixed with needle and thread, and a thick quilt came out.

After making the quilt, the three of them discussed, made lunch first, and then came back after eating to continue making mattresses.

At lunch, Zhong Yuxiu deliberately poured two glasses of water and thanked Yan Rushan, "Brother Yan, thank you for taking care of me during this time, if I didn't have your help, my life would be sad; I substitute water for wine, and thank Brother Yan for his care. ”

Yan Rushan didn't say anything, took a cup and drank it.

Zhong Yuxiu also drank it all, the atmosphere on the table was harmonious, and the lunch of talking and laughing passed.

After lunch, Sun Ruhong and the three of them also made the bedding underneath and spread it on the bed for Zhong Yuxiu; The simple quilt was changed, the futon was padded underneath, the sheets were spread, and the quilt was placed on top.

It was too simple before, and whoever saw it would subconsciously feel cold in their hearts, but now they feel warm in their eyes.

"Thank you, two sisters, I wouldn't have done it so quickly without your help."

"Thanks for what? You've been a great help; You still help us when you work in the field, it's fate to be able to get together, don't say those polite words. ”

"Do you want to make cotton clothes? We're helping too, so you can get dressed in warmth quickly. ”

Zhong Yuxiu will come and deal with things, and both of them are willing to help; There are contacts and contacts, and their relationship can be harmonious.

Zhong Yuxiu turned out snacks and put them on the bed, and gave them a share, "It's troublesome for the two sisters, I'll make the padded jacket myself, and I will make clothes; Rest well. ”

"Why did you give us food! We can't ask for it. Jiang Mei returned the things, and Sun Ruhong didn't take them.

"The snacks I just bought, everyone eats them together, otherwise I will be a person who eats alone." Zhong Yuxiu insisted on stuffing them.

Seeing this, the two looked at each other, and after Zhong Yuxiu stuffed it twice, they really couldn't shirk it before accepting it; But he also insisted on helping to make cotton jackets, and if there were cotton tires, it was easy to make, and a new set of clothes was made in the evening.

sewed the cotton tire on, Zhong Yuxiu put it on and tried it on, and was very satisfied; The conditions do not allow, the beauty is not up, and it is good to be able to wear warm food.

"It's just right, it's not big, it's not small, it's very upper."

"Then let's do it first, and I'll make another few sets tomorrow." Sun Ruhong put away the needle and thread, "It's late, let's go to make dinner, it's dark early now, it's too late to eat, it's inconvenient to wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen." ”

Winter nights are dark, no brighter than summer.

"Cheng, I'll pack up my things." Zhong Yuxiu gathered the remaining fabric and cotton tires, put them on the bed, and then said: "Let's go, I'll wash the clothes out to dry tomorrow, and return them to Sister Ruhong when they're dry." ”

Sun Ruhong smiled: "I don't need to wash it, I only wore it for a day; I don't go out and walk around, so I'll wear yours, and I can wear it for a few more days. ”

"That's not good, it's said that it will be returned to you after washing, and it won't be a word if you can't talk."

The three girls went to the kitchen, made dinner and called the male intellectuals to eat together, and the rest of the male intellectuals' work; The female intellectuals washed up and went back to rest, and the male intellectuals went to rest after cleaning up.
