On this day, it was Xiao Yue's turn to cook, she got up to cook and waited for everyone to eat, cleaned up the kitchen and went back to the house. She is going to make cotton clothes and shoes for Yang Changfa, and the shoes are all mille-feuille, so she plans to make a jacket first, that is, to make a sticky board, but she has to use flour to make a paste, so she has no choice but to go to Wu's to ask for flour.

Xiao Yue went to Wu's house and said, "Mother, I want to make shoes for Changfa, you give me some flour to make paste." ”

Wu Shi's face pulled down when he heard her words, "Flour is such a precious thing, people can't afford to eat it, and you still use it to make shoes, it's really not your thing, don't feel distressed." ”

Xiao Yue felt that Wu's brain structure was different from others, how could the paste made of flour by everyone get to her was a waste, and besides, it wouldn't be much needed! She said with a begging expression on her face: "Otherwise, mother, you usually teach me how to make shoes, and my daughter-in-law also learns." ”

Wu was choked, of course she also used flour, but she always disliked her second son, thinking that it was a debt collector, and she almost killed herself when she was born, so she didn't even like this second daughter-in-law.

If it weren't for Yang Changfa's usual hunting and earning money, she would have swept the two out of the house a long time ago. Hmph, when his baby son is admitted to Xiucai, then he will be Xiucai's mother, and when the time comes, he will drive these two out to save himself from being an eyesore in front of him.

Wu thought indignantly in his heart, and when he saw Xiao Yue still standing in front of him with a begging face, he suddenly felt that this second daughter-in-law was deliberately angry with herself, "You can do what you want, don't look at the flour yourself." ”

Xiao Yue knew that the Wu family was deliberately embarrassing herself, so she opened her mouth and said, "Okay, I'll go out and borrow some." "I'm going to go out.

When Xiao Yue entered the house, she thought that it might not go well, and when she saw that Old Man Yang was also in the house, she suddenly had an idea.

Old Man Yang usually looks at the work in the field and doesn't care about the Wu family's power at home, but Xiao Yue knows that Old Man Yang is a person who cares about face very much.

Just like when Yang Changfa lived with Grandpa Yang, although everyone understood what was going on, he said to the people in the village that Yang Changfa was doing his filial piety in front of Grandpa Yang.

Also, although he doesn't like his second son, when he wants to get married, he still lets the family Zhang Luo, but the money is earned by Yang Changfa himself, and he has to give part of it to the family.

Xiao Yue deliberately said to borrow it because she knew that Old Man Yang had a good face, and sure enough, Old Man Yang spoke, "Second daughter-in-law, wait a minute, let your mother get you flour, and go out to borrow this little thing, what will others think of our family." ”

Turning his head to the Wu family, he ordered, "Hurry up and take it, this year is a bumper harvest year, what does the second daughter-in-law look like when she goes out to borrow, others still think that our Yang family can't open the pot, and you are the second daughter-in-law, you still go out to borrow such a little thing, how can you tell others when you go to borrow it, you don't want others to see our jokes." ”

Xiao Yue listened to Old Man Yang's words, and secretly thought that it was a shame for you to ignore your daughter-in-law and watch her bully us.

"What a waste of flour, this big family can't save a little bit of life......" Wu was still muttering over there.

Old Man Yang said with a dark face, "Do you want to go?" In this family, Old Man Yang generally does not speak, but when he speaks, few people object.

"Whatever you shout, go and go." Wu saw that Old Man Yang was angry, and hurriedly went to fetch flour for Xiao Yue.

After Xiao Yue got the flour, she went to the kitchen, found a small pot, added some cold water, and then stirred while adding the flour, and then added a little heat when it was about the same, and the paste was done, Xiao Yue got it into the bowl and cleaned up the kitchen.

When I went back to the house, I picked a slightly larger cloth head that I bought before, glued the paste and glued the cotton cloth layer by layer until it was almost thick, and when it was almost thick, I finished all the cloth and put three large pieces of cloth in the sun, and when the paste was dry, it was ready to use.

She took out the cloth and cotton she bought to make a black and a blue cotton jacket, she bought coarse cloth and thick cotton cloth because it was wear-resistant, and the white cotton cloth inside the cotton jacket was comfortable, so she bought it slightly better.

She was going to make two jackets for Yang Changfa for the rest of the cloth, which could be worn during this time, and then wear the padded jacket when it snowed.

Xiao Yue has been making clothes in her own room, and the sun is very warm that day, so she brought a chair to make clothes in the yard.

Li went out to chat and came back and saw Xiao Yue making new clothes and her eyes were red again, she walked up to Xiao Yue and said, "The second brother and sister are making clothes." Xiao Yue nodded.

Li saw that Xiao Yue ignored what she wanted to leave, but wanted to take advantage, so she also brought a chair and sat next to Xiao Yue, and Xiao Yue put the extra cloth in the needlework basket.

Li grabbed it and touched it and said, "Second brother and sister, is this for the second brother?" This fabric is so good, but it's a pity that your eldest brother and a few children have torn clothes. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yue understood that this Li family probably took a fancy to the fabric in her hand, so she would always sit beside her, ignoring her, and she kept talking to herself.

Xiao Yue said: "This is what I bought with my dowry silver, and the money I bought is only enough to make clothes for Changfa, I want to make clothes without fabric, I want to see who has the fabric to lend me first." ”

Li Shi's face became very ugly when she heard this, she said in a sharp voice: "Yo, second brother and sister, I didn't say anything about this, you just want to think about who wants to take advantage of you, and you want to ask me to borrow fabric, you don't see that I don't have new clothes, where is the fabric to lend you, if you want to borrow, go to your mother to ask for it!" With that, he threw the fabric in his hand into the basket and turned back to his room.

Xiao Yue looked at Li's back with a light smile, and thought: You didn't say anything, but you just wanted to take advantage. She turned her head to look at the three-room room, and sure enough, the Lin family was at the window again, probably because she wanted to wait for the Li family to get a bargain from herself, and she would get some of it!

After doing it for 3 days, she finished Yang Changfa's clothes and let him put on the black jacket, the black jacket looked even more burly on Yang Changfa's body, Xiao Yue looked at Yang Changfa who was wearing new clothes and said, "How is it?" Comfortable. ”

Yang Changfa touched the new clothes on his body and said, "It's very comfortable, thank you, daughter-in-law." "This is the first time someone has made clothes for him, and he used to buy or wear other people's old clothes, but now that he has his own new clothes, he feels like a child in new clothes.

Xiao Yue's happy expression when she saw Yang Changfa put on new clothes was like eating candy, she let Yang Changfa try other clothes, and after trying each dress, Xiao Yue was very satisfied, put the other clothes in the closet, and Yang Changfa was still wearing the black jacket.

After making the clothes, Xiao Yue was ready to make shoes, she found a piece of cloth and cut a shoe shape according to Yang Changfa's shoes, and cut all the cloth boards according to the shoe shape, even if the shoes can't be used up this time, they can be used.

She prepared to make two pairs of cotton shoes by herself, after cutting, wrap the edge of the sole with a strip of white cloth, and then put the four layers together and use hemp rope to wrap around the whole sole, and then use hemp rope to cover the entire sole, which is a laborious work.

Xiao Yue made 2 pairs of cloth shoes and 3 pairs of cotton shoes for Yang Changfa. I made myself 2 more pairs of cotton shoes, and then I stopped needlework.

Because Yang Changfa didn't have anything, she hurried up to work, and only after she finished did it breathe a sigh of relief.
