When I got home, I saw my grandmother and Xie Laogen sitting under the plane tree from a distance, and this scene was as warm as an oil painting.

Xie Laogen is weaving a bamboo basket, weaving it very carefully, and also using dyed bamboo strips to weave out the color, take a closer look and find that the bamboo basket he made is for his grandmother's sewing basket, since Yao Wenjing bought a lot of colorful silk thread for his grandmother back, Mrs. Li is doing all kinds of needlework every day.

The cloth is woven by herself, spun yarn from cotton and then woven into cloth, sometimes the cotton is not enough, Xie Laogen pulled some hemp grass from the mountain and came back, and the cotton was woven together, although the toughness was not so good, but the homespun cloth made was cold and cold, and it was very comfortable to touch.

Grandma's hands are really skillful, and he also asked Xie Laogen to pick colored plants from the mountains and come back, and the dyes and fabrics made by her were also dyed in various colors by her.

Grandma likes to make cloth bags, the family large and small colorful cloth bags, I don't know how many have been made, each on it, she will embroider delicate flowers, or live animals.

This time I didn't go for a few days, but I didn't expect my grandmother to make two or three more bags out, Yao Wenjing dropped the things in her hand, and held the cloth bag in her hand, a little in love.

"Grandma, this is so beautiful, so beautiful."

Grandma was very happy to see Yao Wenjing, and when she heard her granddaughter say that she liked it, she not only gave her a few new ones, but even ran to the house and stuffed the cloth bags that had been made for months into Yao Wenjing's arms.

"Jing girl, if you like it, give it to you, use it."

Xie Laogen on the side laughed hehehe.

"Second Miss, the craft of embroidery from childhood to adulthood is a must, it was famous in the village at the beginning, but it was taught by a famous family, it is different."

When he said this, his face was full of admiration, and even Xie Yuanjiu, who was very arrogant, could see it.

"Grandpa, when you were young, did you like Grandma Li, otherwise why would you have been taking care of Grandma Li?"

Even if he is sixty or seventy years old, he was ridiculed by his grandson like this, and Xie Lao and Lao blushed.

"Don't talk nonsense, my Xie Laogen's life was given by their Li family, if it weren't for their family, I'm afraid I would have starved to death, and it is natural to take care of the second lady."

Who knew that when Mrs. Li heard this, she was not shy and a little happy.

"Yes, you just liked me at the time, I know."

Xie Laogen was cutting bamboo strips, so nervous that he almost cut to the back of his hand, Yao Wenjing pursed his lips and smiled, he couldn't continue to make jokes about the two old men, for their generation, isn't it like to accompany each other like this, and it doesn't even need to be said that it is better than anything else.

She looked at the pile of cloth bags in her arms, and her heart moved, and she changed the subject.

"You say, grandma makes so many cloth bags, and she can't use so much, can you take them out and sell them?"

As soon as her words came out, Xie Laogen immediately objected.

"No, this can be sold for a few dollars, who in this family will buy such bells and whistles pockets to hold things, you have to sell for a few cents, not even cloth money and silk thread money, it is expensive, no one will buy it at all."

Xie Yuanjiu, who was on the side, looked at Yao Wenjing and suddenly understood what Yao Wenjing meant.

"Grandpa, this is not necessarily, this cloth bag is definitely not easy to sell in Ala Township, but if you change places, maybe you can."

They all thought of the provincial city at the same time, the provincial capital is a metropolis after all, and now it has been several years since the reform and opening up, and this spring breeze has long been blown over.

The girls in the provincial capital are no longer confined to the color of black, white and gray, and have begun to watch Hong Kong and Taiwan films, buying all kinds of trendy things from the reform and opening up cities in the coastal area.

"It's just that if there is only a bag, the variety seems to be too simple, grandma, can you make something else, such as cloth shoes and insoles?"

Mrs. Li didn't know what to do without exchanging money, so she heard Yao Wenjing say that she made shoes and insoles, so she immediately agreed.

"Jing girl, if you like me, I'll do it."

In the afternoon of this day, Mrs. Li began to make paste under the plane tree, make shoe samples, and accept shoe soles, a person in her 60s, her hands and feet are very numb, and there are a lot of leftover fabrics at home, which are all used for her grandmother's pastime in the past few years, but I didn't expect that it can be used as waste now.

Yao Wenjing was not idle, and put all the Cordyceps purchased back in the attic, planning to air dry for half a day, and then clean it out according to the size, and finally pack it in a cardboard box to avoid crushing.

After all, if they want to go to the provincial capital to sell Cordyceps, they need to travel long distances along the way.

She was so busy that she even forgot to cook, and when she remembered, Xie Yuanjiu boiled a pot of wild vegetable porridge, and grabbed a bowl of pickled cowpeas from the kimchi jar, and asked her to eat it at their house.

Yao Wenjing didn't dislike it, moved a table and placed it under the plane tree, and the four of them ate very satisfied.

When they were halfway through eating, they didn't expect Yao Wenbin to come back, and what surprised them even more was that Feng Chunyan was still behind them.
