Chapter 197: Hard Days
As soon as Shen Sanzhu said this, it was like giving Shen Lao Niang a reassuring pill, and she almost believed it all, but when she thought of how things like wild vegetables could be sold for money, she was still a little suspicious, but her third son was the most shrewd in the family, he believed it, what else did she not believe.
Shen Lao Niang's wrinkled face immediately smiled into a chrysanthemum, and quickly picked up the fifty yuan that her daughter had returned to her.
"That old Duobu, you have to use the old and young thread, Mom will go to the consignment point to buy the thread now, and when your two sisters-in-law come back, our family will start making new clothes, all of them will be done, everyone will have a share, and strive to wear new clothes for the New Year."
It's not that she likes to show off, those two old people pit their family like this, and there are not many people in the tunzi who want to see their jokes, this time she will let everyone take a good look, her old man is not the captain of the team, is life better.
Shen Lao Niang blew out again like a gust of wind, and Shen Yiyi hurriedly chased out, "Mom, my little brother said that he would go to town tomorrow, and I already asked him to help buy cotton and thread." ”
"Buy cotton?" As soon as Shen Lao Niang heard that she was going to buy cotton, her heart began to flutter again, "Little Wu, don't buy cotton, that thing is expensive and difficult to buy, and besides, our family has cotton clothes to wear, just make a few single clothes, I think it's good." ”
"Mom, I promised my little brother that the cloth would make him a single coat, and I would also make him a cotton coat, which was a big cotton jacket, and when it was over, he would say that we would make the cloth, and he would make cotton." The more Shen Yiyi spoke, the quieter her voice became, and she suddenly realized that she was only ten years old, and there were some things that should be discussed with Shen Lao Niang, and she should not make her own decisions.
During this time, the life of the family has changed dramatically, and Shen Lao Niang feels that her brain is no longer enough.
So she still doesn't care about the cloth from their family and Comrade Gu Xiao's cotton, anyway, she didn't take a penny out of anything, and she was not qualified to speak.
"Xiao Wu, Mom said, you will be in charge of this family in the future, and you can just watch and do those things."
"......" has become her home again.
While the two were talking, Liu Lanxiang came back.
Shen Lao Niang was lying on the window and saw that the second daughter-in-law was still carrying a package in her hand, as if she was still bulging, so she wanted to go down to the ground to take a look, but was pulled by Shen Yiyi.
"Mom, the second sister-in-law will go back to deliver food, her mother must be very happy, maybe it is something from her mother's family, you go over and see, okay?"
Shen Lao Niang thought about it, but when she thought about the poor family of Lao Liu's family, she pouted, "Just her mother's family, what good things can she bring for her, maybe it is some rag heads, saying that they are used to make leather cloth for her daughter, hmph, it is not our paste that will be used at that time, they will use the ready-made leather cloth." ”
It seems that this kind of thing has happened before.
The batter has to use white flour, and there is no white flour eaten in these years, who can take out the big white flour to beat the paste.
In fact, when Shen Lao Niang divides the grain every year, she needs a few catties of wheat, and the flour that is ground out is definitely the most important thing for her daughter, but it will also come out and be used to beat leather cloth. Otherwise, where do the shoes of this family come from, you can't wear straw sandals.
How can country people buy shoes to wear, not all of them are made of such pairs, and if they can't afford it, they can only wear straw sandals.
Most families can't afford to get white flour and batter, and they can't afford the rags sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives, so they can only wear straw sandals all year round.
Shen Yiyi has seen that kind of straw sandals, which are a bit like sandals in summer, and they can be braided, and they feel quite good to wear.
However, in winter, because what cannot be done is still unaffordable, some people will add a piece of cloth to the straw sandals, or add some cotton, which can be regarded as a pair of cotton shoes.
