Chapter 38: The Best Sister-in-law (38)
"Yin Yin, do you like mutton?" Sister-in-law Xu asked her, "There are a lot of sheep here, and the price is cheaper than pork, but your brother thinks that the smell of sheep is strong, and I am worried that you will not be used to eating it, so I didn't buy it first." If you like it, tomorrow I will go to the morning market to pick up a good piece of lamb shank and come back, and give you stewed potatoes to eat. ”
"I like it." Xu Yin nodded violently, she still plans to buy more, authentic free-range lake mutton, and she can't buy it at a high price in the future.
"Then let's go to the morning market tomorrow, you see if there is anything else you want to eat, my sister-in-law will make it for you, anyway, the summer vacation is very long, stay here for a few more days."
Xu Yin smiled and said, "I promised my mother before I came, and I have to go back before the double robbery." Didn't our family raise rice fish? When the rice field is drained, this fish can also be sold, and my mother said that the flower girl went to the sedan chair once, and I was not in her and her father's hearts. ”
"Then your brother will ask for leave and let him go back with you. This year, my father also planted three acres of watermelons, and I don't know what the harvest will be. ”
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, the melon seedlings grow very well, our father is a veteran of melon planting, and he is more attentive to the melon than to my daughter, can the melon grow poor?"
The sister-in-law chatted about each other's recent situation.
Xu Yin knew that her sister-in-law had already made a lot of clothes for less than two months after she moved to the family home.
"Thanks to you, little sister, for designing this nursing suit for me. On the day I first moved in, my neighbors came to visit the door and saw that I could feed them without picking up my clothes, and I thought the clothes were good, and there were family members upstairs who were in confinement and asked me to make two, and then people came to me one after another to make clothes......
Xu Yin thinks this is very good: "Doudou and Ding Ding are still young, and the family is always inseparable from people, and it is good for my sister-in-law to make clothes at home and earn some wages." When the fame is out in the future, more people will come to you to do it. ”
Sister-in-law Xu hesitated for a moment and said, "There is one thing that I can't make up my mind about. There was an empty tailor shop in the internal supply and marketing department in the family courtyard, and the original lessee went to join the army elsewhere. Last week, the director of the Women's Federation came to me and asked me if I had any intention of renting out the tailor's shop. She counted it, and I would make clothes for us. If I don't rent it, I'll have to switch to another shop. ”
Xu Yin thinks this is an opportunity, don't look at it as just a family home, but there are a lot of people, the existing families generally start with two children, there are four seasons a year, at least two sets of changes per quarter, right?
Even if parents are reluctant to make new clothes, what about children? How many outfits do you have to do every year, and you can't go to school and have a patch?
The other half of these family members have a lot of income, who is willing to let their children wear patched old clothes?
What's more, it is a unique existence, with unlimited potential and considerable profits!
Xu Yin encouraged Sister-in-law Xu to rent it.
"Are you worried about the high rent?"
Sister-in-law Xu shook her head: "The rent is okay, I just don't know the bottom of my heart." I discussed this matter with your brother, but he didn't understand, so let me make up my own mind. But I don't have an idea. ”
Xu Yin simply took the idea for her: "Rent!" Must rent! The opportunity sent by the God of Wealth to the door, it is foolish not to rent. ”
Sister-in-law Xu: "......"
However, with the words of the sister-in-law, sister-in-law Xu has a bottom in her heart.
It's a pity that the sister-in-law is going to go to college in another place, otherwise, it would be nice for the sister-in-law to open this shop.
"Okay! I went to rent it and opened a shop to make clothes. ”
"Not only do you make clothes, but you can also buy some fabrics that sell well and sell them in the store."
Xu Yin thought for a while and suggested:
"It's summer soon, I'll wait to draw some new summer clothes for my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law will make some to hang in the store first, first, to enrich the storefront, and second, to attract people to come in and see. Maybe I didn't plan to make clothes, but I thought it was beautiful and came to you to do it, and the business is just like that. ”
Sister-in-law Xu felt much more down-to-earth when she heard this, and she couldn't wait to negotiate the matter of the shop now.
The next day, when she came back from the morning market, she couldn't wait to go to the director of the Women's Federation to rent a shop, knowing that her sister-in-law was going to the city, so she stuffed 50 yuan for her before leaving.
Xu Yin didn't want to accept it, but then she thought about her sister-in-law dragging the two children, and she usually didn't have time to go to the city.
She took the bus at the entrance of the family home to the city center, originally wanted to explore the stall market, and overheard a few passengers chatting, saying that a large textile wholesale market had opened in the north of the city, and her heart moved.
I asked them how to get to the wholesale market, and finally asked for the address and the bus that was reversed.
said that it was the north of the city, but in fact it was still a suburb, and the potholes and bumpy stone roads made her almost doubt her life.
However, when I saw the appearance of the textile wholesale market, I felt that it was not in vain.
This is much more regular than the wholesale market at the mouth of the alley, and it is so spacious that trucks can run in it.
She followed the flow of people who also came here to batch the materials, and rushed all the way to the defective cloth stall of the cloth factory, and grabbed five horses with a clear eye.
Each horse is 30 meters, only 20 yuan. Five pieces of cloth for 100 yuan, and two pieces of labor cloth that can make two pairs of pants, are you cheap at home!
The garment factory's disposal booth here is also crowded, and the ready-to-wear garments to be disposed of are old and many of them are out of size, but they are cheaper.
Xu Yin didn't want money to give her parents a few pieces each, they were cheap, and she didn't feel distressed when she worked in the field and wore dirty clothes.
The rest of the money was used to buy good and soft yarn and muslin. A variety of suits were picked up.
Except for the soft yarn, which is slightly more expensive, the others are cheap.
Go back and ask my sister-in-law to remember the address, and come here next time I buy cloth.
The money was almost spent, and Xu Yin took the car back to the city satisfied.
Seeing her come back with five pieces of cloth in her hand and a bulging bag on her shoulder, the family courtyard was boiling.
A few days ago, I heard that Camp Chief Xu's sister was coming to visit relatives, and seeing that Camp Chief Xu's daughter-in-law began to move all kinds of meat and vegetables home since she received the telegram, I knew that Camp Chief Xu's sister was very favored at home.
Otherwise, can a sister-in-law not hesitate to spend a monthly salary to stock up on meat and vegetables for her arrival?
The family members who are good friends with Sister-in-law Xu can't help but worry about her: With such a sister, the life of the in-laws is not easy, right?
Unexpectedly, Sister-in-law Xu didn't mind at all, on the contrary, she was looking forward to the arrival of her sister-in-law more than Camp Chief Xu.
These family members don't say anything, but who doesn't mumble in private: Who doesn't know that the mother-in-law and sister-in-law in the world are the most difficult to serve, could it be that Camp Chief Xu's family is an exception?
Now I saw Xu Yin carrying the cloth back to the family home, saying that it was bought for her sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law Xu asked the director of the Women's Federation to rent a tailor's shop, and everyone has heard about it, and it seems that these cloths are preparing for the opening of the tailor's shop.
It was clear in an instant: why is Camp Chief Xu so warm and thoughtful to his sister-in-law, and there is such a sister-in-law who is willing to worry about his sister-in-law's career, who doesn't like it?
