Chapter 254: Sister Meng, Xiaolan

Although Haishi is a very developed city in the Xia Kingdom, no matter how developed the city is, it cannot compete with the general environment of a country.

There are not many shops on the street, but the two women still have a good time, and from time to time they comment on what they see.

Shamana's favorite is the cheongsam of the Xia Kingdom, and there are also craftsmen who make cheongsams in the M country, but they are not as good as the local craftsmen of the Xia country, and her trip to the Xia country is to find such craftsmen.

Bringing this kind of craft overseas, her mother-in-law, who is Dang Qing's grandmother, also has a soft spot for cheongsam, and Dang Qing also fell in love with it after wearing the cheongsam given by her grandmother.

As soon as the two women were combined, they asked the guide of the team to take them to find a craftsman who made cheongsam.

To say that there were really many time-honored cheongsam craftsmen, but unfortunately in this era, cheongsam is regarded as a thing that is immoral, and many craftsmen either close their doors or change industries.

Fortunately, the guide was a person who knew Haishi very well, and he led the two of them to find an alley, and at the very back of the alley there was a courtyard with a half-open door.

Dang Qing looked at the guide curiously, how could there be craftsmen in such a place?

The guide just smiled and knocked on the closed door.

"Who! Come in yourself! The door is not closed! ”

After a few people entered, they saw that the courtyard was full of clothes, of course, not cheongsams, but various tunics or clothes with wide sleeves that were particularly characteristic in this era.

"Sister Meng, are you busy?"

The guide is actually a young man, but because he is very clever, he was arranged by Yu Chengrui to be a guide. He is also a native of Haishi.

"It's Xiaopeng, why do you have time to come and see me, aren't you in the army?"

The woman who spoke looked forty or fifty years old, with a smile on her round face, which made people like her coolness at first glance.

"I'll bring our lady to you for some help, you won't not agree!"

Xiaopeng looked at Sister Meng with frowns, he has always been taken care of by this Sister Meng, it is rare for someone to like cheongsam, it just so happens that Sister Meng also has this skill, how could he not think of her.

"Hello, big sister! I'm Dangqing, I took the liberty to come to visit, please don't be surprised! ”

Dang Qing stepped forward and walked in front of Sister Meng, people's first impression is very important, Dang Qing didn't want her intention to scare this simple eldest sister.

"How could it be! Take a seat, I'll pour you tea!" ”

Sister Meng asked a few people to come into the house to talk, and standing in the courtyard was not hospitality.

As soon as you approach Sister Meng's living room, you will find that there is an old-fashioned sewing machine in the middle of the living room, and the chairs and tables next to it are full of fabrics.

"I'm sorry, there's a little mess at home, so I'm laughing!"

Sister Meng saw that there was no place to put her feet in her house, and she was a little embarrassed, usually the neighbors who came here, and everyone was used to her being so messy here.

"Sister Meng, don't say that, we suddenly felt that we came here to visit, and we didn't greet you in advance, and it was us who was rude!"

Dang Qing is very acceptable to such an environment, and at first glance she is a hard-working eldest sister.

"Xiaopeng helped me carry those fabrics to the yard, and let your leaders sit down and rest first."

Sister Meng looked at this room and Xiaopeng could summon it, and she didn't care about anything else, so she let the guests sit down first.

"Sister Meng, don't be busy, let's go to the yard to talk, I see that there are tables, chairs and benches in the yard."

Dang Qing grabbed Sister Meng, who was about to clean up the fabric on the chair, and pointed to the tables, chairs and benches in the courtyard and said.

He looked back at his aunt Shamana and asked her if she minded.

Shamana saw Dang Qing communicating with others for the first time, it was very fresh, how could she not be happy, nodded and went out first.

After another greeting, Dang Qing said what she meant.

Sister Meng didn't know how to answer, she looked at Xiaopeng uneasily, I don't know if this leader's wife really likes it, or if she has something else.

She was scared of those people, many of the things used in pattern-making at home, as well as the cheongsam that she once kept, were either burned or ruined and could no longer be used.

"Sister Meng, our lady really wants to find a craftsman to make cheongsam, you have this craft, I just introduced her, besides, haven't you always wanted to pass on Uncle Meng's craft?"

Xiaopeng knew that Sister Meng was reluctant to lose this craft, and Uncle Meng was making clothes for the palace and those dignitaries and nobles, and he was once famous.

"Besides, Xiaolan's illness also needs money, as long as you make a cheongsam that satisfies our wife, the cost is definitely not a problem."

This is the most tempting ~ bewildering rhetoric that Xiaopeng can think of for Sister Meng, he just wants to help Xiaolan, that child has congenital asthma, and going to the hospital is the same as his own, but the cost of entering once is also high.

"Okay, what do you want?"

Sister Meng can't care so much, she is willing to take a risk for the sake of the child, and it is a big deal to be pulled on the stage again. But if people really come to ask for it, then the child can also pay more money to see a doctor.

Leave Shamana to talk to Sister Meng about the style of clothes and what kind of fabric they need, so they can find someone to buy it.

Dang Qing took Xiaopeng to the side and asked him about Sister Meng's child. Dang Qing has two children herself, she understands how much she loves her children as a mother, and she understands how much a sick child makes her mother suffer.

Xiaolan is Sister Meng's daughter, she is sixteen years old this year, and the family can still get along with each other before the big movement, but because of Sister Meng's craft, she has been posted many big-character posters after the start of the big movement.

Sister Meng's husband broke away from Sister Meng and took the old man to live elsewhere, leaving her sick daughter to live with Sister Meng.

Looking at her daughter who is sick from time to time, Sister Meng had to take on some neighbors' work to make ends meet, because she had no way to go to work in the factory, her identity was not allowed, and she had to receive re-education, voluntary labor or something.

In short, she has a very hard life, Xiaolan is a sensible child, but the more sensible she is, the more she can't understand her mother's hardships, and often helps Sister Meng to work, but she is also tired and easy to get sick.

Now Xiaolan can only watch Sister Meng work hard to earn money for her every day, and she can't think of committing suicide by cutting her wrists for a while, she was rescued, but her health is too poor and she is still lying in the hospital.

After learning about Xiaolan's situation, Dang Qing almost couldn't hold back her tears, she didn't expect to see Sister Meng smiling, her heart was so bitter, compared to her, the ones she had just experienced seemed too pediatric.

"Xiaopeng, you take me to the hospital to see Xiaolan in a while, we can help if we can, Sister Meng just makes clothes, and she doesn't do anything heinous, you remember to talk to the street office when you go back, don't embarrass the orphans and widows."

After explaining the matter, Dang Qing was by her aunt's side again, listening to her opinion on the style of the cheongsam.

I don't know if I don't listen, it turns out that the cheongsam still has so much knowledge, Dang Qing can be regarded as serving her aunt, and the people of the country have studied the clothing of the Xia country so thoroughly, she is a serious Xia countryman, and she doesn't know anything!
