Chapter 43: This Can't Be Cotton, Right?
After carefully folding, there are actually quite a few.
Chai Shuiqing brought some old vegetable baskets from outside, put the cloth in, and then spread a layer of wild vegetables on top.
After a brief cleanup, Chai Shuiqing put away all the gadgets he had made.
After doing this, she ate two more milky steamed buns, another egg, and drank a cup of soy milk, and then went out.
At this time, it was not yet an hour, but the sky was faintly bright, and someone had already descended to the ground.
The smoke curled from the cooking in each house, and the road was a little cold, but Chai Shuiqing was full of energy.
Occasionally, when she met one or two uncles and aunts on the road, Chai Shuiqing lowered her head with a vegetable basket, but she couldn't see anything, and no one paid attention to her.
When he came to Li's house, Chai Shuiqing had already heard the lively sound coming from the courtyard of Li's house.
'Buckle Buckle ......'
"Feng'er, Kang'er is making trouble, sister-in-law can't leave, you go and open the door."
"Huh? Girl, does this sound like your second brother is back? ”
"Hmph, the second child just likes to pretend, and he learned it from the people in the town, and he is very gentle."
"Kang'er's father, what are you talking about!"
......
The Li family was lively, and everyone didn't hide what they were talking about, so Chai Shuiqing naturally heard it.
Although the words sounded like his father and mother were defending the second child, and although the words of the eldest brother of the Li family seemed to be complaining about his younger brother, Chai Shuiqing could hear the ridicule from everyone's tone.
Such a family is called a family!
Just as he was thinking wildly, the courtyard door of the Li family opened, and Li Xiufeng stretched out his head.
When he saw that the person who came was Chai Shuiqing, he immediately opened the door and pulled her in.
"Dani, come in!"
Hearing that it wasn't her son coming back, the Li family's aunt came out of the stove room and said with a smile: "Da Nier is here?" ”
Chai Shuiqing found out that the people of the Li family were there!
She nodded at Aunt Li, said to Aunt Li shyly, and whispered to Uncle Li.
After calling them one by one, Chai Shuiqing breathed a sigh of relief.
It's no wonder it's so lively.
Li Xiufeng was impatient with her politely, and pulled Chai Shuiqing to her room: "Oh, don't say it, let's go into the house and talk." ”
Chai Shuiqing was pulled into the house by her, and Li Xiufeng found out that she had brought a basket of wild vegetables.
"Why did you bring wild vegetables? You can just keep it for yourself, we have a lot of family, we can dig it ourselves. ”
Li Xiufeng thought that Chai Shuiqing had sent things to herself twice recently, and she was suddenly even more embarrassed.
Chai Shuiqing smiled, pulled the wild vegetable chop apart, and pulled out a large piece of floral cloth from it.
"Wild vegetables don't, I'm here for this."
Li Xiufeng's eyes widened and looked at the piece of cloth with positive color and beautiful color, and she didn't react for a while.
"This ...... It can't be cotton, right? ”
Before she got started, Li Xiufeng knew that there was cotton cloth in front of her just by looking at it.
Although linen and cotton are ordinary materials, linen is cheaper and has a much rougher texture, but it is also quite wear-resistant.
The price of cotton cloth is high, and the average person in the village can't afford to wear it, and now the people in Hedong Village can only wear it from the Chai family and the second child of the Li family.
Chai Shuiqing was a little surprised to see Li Xiufeng so shocked.
Isn't that great?
"Didn't you say you wanted to buy cloth last night? I don't have any money, so I'll trade this, okay? ”
As soon as she heard what Chai Shuiqing said, Li Xiufeng came back to her senses and didn't dare to touch it for a long time.
He said, "Dani...... You...... Are you stupid? This kind of cotton cloth can be used to make clothes by yourself, and it is not cost-effective to change linen. ”
What's more, there are so many of them, and her family doesn't have so much linen to change.
Chai Shuiqing stuffed the cloth into Li Xiufeng's arms, walked to her loom and looked at the color and craftsmanship of the batch of linen cloth that had not yet been woven.
