Chapter 034: Reasonable Explanation
In order to let Chen Zhaodi see with her own eyes that she could eat the sewing that she could say with full marks of skill points, Liu Xinyu didn't even eat breakfast and sat down directly in front of the sewing machine.
What makes Liu Xinyu feel fortunate is that even if the Liu family is curious, they will not touch Liu Xinyu's things at will.
Although the fabric that Zhang Hongyun had cut had been placed on the sewing machine, it had not been touched.
Zhang Hongyun's cloth needs to be selvedged first.
There is no dedicated seam machine here, only a sewing machine can be used for seaming.
The sewing machine can lock the edge, but it is more troublesome, but fortunately, it is difficult for Liu Xinyu.
Adjust the stitch wrench to make the stitch smaller, and the direction of the cloth is transverse feeding.
When walking forward, put down the presser foot like ordinary sewing, feed the cloth with your left hand, and walk a few stitches forward with the cloth slightly obliquely, and then use the method of returning the needle, lift the presser foot with your right hand and walk back a few stitches.
In this way, a zigzag stitch is formed, and the edges are locked.
Liu Xinyu's skillful techniques obviously shocked Chen Zhaodi and stunned her.
Liu Xinyu didn't see Chen Zhaodi's appearance, picked up the second piece of cloth and prepared to continue to lock the edge.
When the sound of the sewing machine at a constant speed sounded again, Chen Zhaodi finally woke up: "When will you learn?" ”
Liu Xinyu's hand is more slippery than Tailor Lin's, and it is definitely not something that can be learned in a day or two or even a year or two.
Liu Xinyu's sewing machine was only bought last winter, and Chen Zhaodi also came to the door to reproach Liu Qingshan for spending money indiscriminately.
What did Liu Qingshan do to her at that time?
"Xinyu will graduate from high school next year, and I am reluctant to let her follow me to the field to compete for work. I happened to have some money in hand, bought her a machine, and when she graduated, let her sew and mend at home. ”
This is Liu Qingshan's original words.
Obviously, at that time, Liu Xinyu should not have stepped on the sewing machine, and Liu Qingshan certainly wouldn't step on it.
Since Liu Qingshan said that he would wait for Liu Xinyu to graduate from high school and then learn tailoring, he will definitely wait until Liu Xinyu graduates to learn.
When Liu Qingshan died, Liu Xinyu still had half a year to graduate, that is to say, before Liu Qingshan died, Liu Xinyu had not yet begun to learn to step on the sewing machine, and today is also the first time Chen Zhaodi saw Liu Xinyu stepping on the machine, so when did Liu Xinyu learn it, and who did he learn it from, and he would be so superb.
No matter how Chen Zhaodi thought about it, she couldn't imagine that the current Liu Xinyu had changed people.
just looked at Liu Xinyu suspiciously.
Of course, Liu Xinyu had to give Chen Zhaodi a reasonable explanation.
Fortunately, this explanation is not difficult, Liu Qingshan is very smart, and his learning and hands-on ability are very strong.
After I bought the sewing machine home, I didn't really put it away, but consciously followed the instructions, and after repeated failures, I finally learned to step on the sewing machine.
After Liu Qingshan learned, he was not in a hurry to teach Liu Xinyu to step on the sewing machine.
Although the theory that reading is useless and the argument that sixty is long live is very popular in this era, Liu Qingshan thinks that since he goes to study, he must study hard, and Liu Xinyu will of course wait until after graduation to learn sewing.
It turns out that Liu Xinyu really can't step on the sewing machine, let alone cut.
"Aoyama can step on the sewing machine, and he taught you?" After listening to Liu Xinyu's explanation, Chen Zhaodi was surprised again.
However, Chen Zhaodi was quickly relieved.
Liu Qingshan is her own son, he is smart when he is a child, and he can do everything quickly, so he knows a lot of things.
In addition to having a good kung fu, carpentry and masonry can be used.
A few years ago, as soon as the Minqin Brigade was electrified, he became the electrician of the brigade.
Liu Xinyu is like his father, he is smarter than children of the same age when he is a child, and he reads well and learns things quickly, of course, he is still not as good as his father.
Liu Xinyu locked four pieces of fabric in a row, and Chen Zhaodi finally remembered that Liu Xinyu hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so she hurriedly asked her to eat breakfast first: "Hurry up and have breakfast, let's go to town today and ask if anyone needs yellow eel." ”
Liu Xinyu couldn't help frowning, but she didn't directly object, showing a worried and timid expression: "Milk, will someone catch it?" ”
"Don't worry, there's a way for milk." Chen Zhaodi pushed breakfast to Liu Xinyu and said a little proudly.
Also, Liu Qingshan will send yellow eels to his parents every year, Liu Xinju said that all the yellow eels were exchanged for food by Chen Zhaodi, and he was not willing to eat them once.
In Liu Xinyu's memory, there is indeed no memory of Chen Zhaodi being arrested for exchanging yellow eels for food, obviously as Chen Zhaodi said, she has a way to sell yellow eels.
As for whether to sell for money or for food, it should depend on the situation.
Catching yellow eels to improve the living conditions of his family was one of Liu Xinyu's plans.
Of course, she doesn't plan to sell them all, but she has to let her family have a good time.
After breakfast, Chen Zhaodi took Liu Xinyu to the town.
When I left the village, I happened to meet Zhang Hongyun, who was going to find Liu Xinyu.
"Second Grandma Liu, Sister Xinyu, where are you going?" Zhang Hongyun affectionately grabbed Liu Xinyu's arm and asked.
Liu Xinyu had to stop and talk to Zhang Hongyun.
"Ah, you're going to town." Knowing that Liu Xinyu was going to the town, Zhang Hongyun was a little disappointed.
She thought that Liu Xinyu would be able to help her make her clothes well today, it was the fabric that her eldest brother personally chose for her, and she planned to wear it for everyone on the day of her eldest brother and Sister Xinyu's engagement.
Although Liu Xinyu didn't know what Zhang Hongyun was thinking, she didn't miss the loss on Zhang Hongyun's face, and guessed in her heart that Zhang Hongyun should be anxious about that dress.
So he patted her hand and soothed: "I will go to the town with my grandmother to do some errands, and I will be back soon." I'll help you make your clothes when I come back, and I'll be ready tomorrow at the latest. ”
"Okay, good, thank you, Sister Xinyu! Second Grandma Liu, Sister Xinyu, be careful all the way, goodbye! Liu Xinyu has always been good at talking to Zhang Hongyun, there is such a sentence, Zhang Hongyun's face immediately showed a bright smile, waved to Liu Xinyu and Chen Zhaodi, and bounced home.
The grandfather and grandson did not delay any longer, and hurried towards the town.
It is only four or five miles from the Minqin Brigade to the town, which is not far, but it is a bit of a test for Liu Xinyu.
The original Liu Xinyu went to school and was basically picked up by Liu Qingshan by bicycle, and Xin Yu used to go out either by himself or by others, and he was a person who rarely walked long distances on two legs.
Chen Zhaodi is a thin woman, but she is a person who can walk very well, and her steps are so fast that Liu Xinyu has to trot to keep up.
Not long after leaving the village, Liu Xinyu was already out of breath and couldn't keep up.
She should have ridden a bicycle if she knew so.
But think about it, even if she can ride, a two-eight-bar bicycle, she doesn't dare to take Chen Zhaodi.
I had no choice but to shout at Chen Zhaodi, who was in front of me: "Milk, go slowly, I can't keep up!" ”
Chen Zhaodi slowed down helplessly, and glared back at Liu Xinyu with some disgust.
