Chapter 20: The store is almost open, and he really can't be happy
Meal
Li Lan'er measured the size of the third child, and then entered the room, planning to make the clothes and pants for the eldest and second children first, and let Ning Ning take them to wear tomorrow.
The three children are all about the same height, and they are even thinner.
Jiang Ningning went into the kitchen and planned to boil water to take a bath, although it was only autumn now, and everyone else in the family washed with cold water, but she couldn't stand it, it was too cold.
You must know that she is a person who even drinks warm milk tea in summer in modern times.
"Ning Ning, are you going to boil water?" Jiang Xiangyang happened to be cleaning up the kitchen, and when he saw her come in, he asked nervously, since the little sister's body improved, he hadn't chatted with her much, let alone alone.
The main thing is that the little sister has also changed a lot, so he doesn't know how to get along with her for a while.
"Yes."
Jiang Xiangyang skillfully reached out to lift the bucket in her hand, "I'll help you burn it, you just wait for me outside." ”
"No, third brother, you continue to be busy." Jiang Ningning didn't give it to him, but walked over to him and poured it into the pot that had been cleaned.
Jiang Xiangyang's hand holding the rag couldn't help but tighten, "Ning Ning, don't you like my brother anymore?" ”
Jiang Ningning had just put down the bucket when he heard such a question, and he was subconsciously stunned, and turned his head to look at him, "No, why do you think like that." ”
"You don't let me help you work, and you don't let me help when you open a store, is it that I didn't do anything wrong and made you unhappy? If you say it, I'll change ......."
Jiang Xiangyang couldn't help but say that his voice gradually weakened, and his face was a little uncomfortable.
In the past, Ning Ning only stuck to him and would only say a few words to him, but now that he has become happy, of course he is happy, but... Ning Ning was no longer special to him, and he was so close to the eldest brother and second brother, which made him a little jealous in his heart.
Jiang Ningning couldn't laugh or cry when she saw the third brother's aggrieved appearance.
She really didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to come up and want to help with the work, but there was a reason why she didn't let the third brother go to sell the pig's large intestine.
First, you don't need so many people. The second and third brothers are very clean, and they have to clean the mud on their bodies several times every day when they come back from work, not to mention the feces in the pig's intestine.
"The pig intestine has just started to be sold, the eldest brother and the second brother can do it, cleaning is a very troublesome process, and it stinks, doesn't the third brother love to be clean, I plan to wait for the pig intestine to sell steadily, and then open other stores with you."
"Really?" Jiang Xiangyang's eyes lit up instantly, and the little sister was still planning to open other stores?
So the little sister couldn't bear to let him clean the stinky stuff in the pig's intestine so he didn't call him?
"Really, when I figure out what to open next, we'll do it."
"Okay, that little sister, I'll help you boil water, you go out and wait for me."
"Okay." In order to make him feel at ease, Jiang Ningning did not shirk it, and went out of the kitchen to wait for him.
Jiang Xiangyang's sad heart was finally appeased, and the smile on the corner of his mouth when he boiled water was listed in the sky.
When he boiled the water and put it in a bucket, Jiang Ningning took a change of clothes and followed.
Jiang Xiangyang put the bucket in the bathroom and went out.
Jiang Ningning washed it well, put on new clothes and was in a happy mood, the only bad thing was that the two close-fitting ones were not well worn, especially the vest was a little... Loosened.
She thought that there was still some fabric left over after her outfit was finished, so she might as well use it to make underwear, and maybe she could sell it in the town.
After all, the underwear of this era is two pieces of cloth to put it bluntly, and it is especially uncomfortable for older people to wear shaky clothes, and the more Jiang Ningning thinks about it, the more he feels that it is feasible to sell underwear.
She ran into her mother's room, crouched on the edge of the bed, and began to draw.
"Ning Ning, aren't you sleeping yet?" Li Lan'er was still knitting the boss's pants in her hand, and it was about to be completed.
"Not sleepy yet." Jiang Ningning replied without raising his head, still drawing a picture in his hand.
Li Lan'er looked at the new clothes her daughter was wearing, the white puff-sleeved top set off her thin waist, and the lower body with pink trousers and pants was very beautiful.
At this moment, she is squatting on the small one, full of vitality and vitality, and even the home has a color.
She couldn't help but smile on her face, and lowered her head to continue to weave the second child's set.
After Jiang Ningning drew several styles, Li Lan'er only knitted half of it.
She got up and moved to stand next to her mother, "Mom, look at this, can you weave it?" ”
Li Lan'er looked at the two round ones on the small clothes on the picture, and her face turned red, "Yes, yes, but where did we get the cotton from the house and stuff it on both sides." ”
Jiang Ningning was silent, thinking about it, there are those who grow cotton this year, but there are very few, and there should be factories that make down jackets.
"Then you can weave a sample for me first, and I'll think of a way to make cotton."
"Okay." Li Lan'er didn't even ask what she wanted to do with this, so she began to weave for her.
Jiang Ningning's white cloth is left, so it is enough to weave and underwear.
When the finished product came out, Jiang Ningning had to praise her mother's sewing machine technology was really strong.
"Mom, you knit so beautifully!"
Li Lan'er was overjoyed by the praise, she smiled and took her picture and asked:
"If you like it, Ning Ning, tell me how to weave a circle of these pants, as well as the lines in front of the collar of the jacket, I will be working at home tomorrow if I have nothing to do."
"Cut out a piece of cloth on the side of the pants, weave it in and wrap it in a circle, and you can cut out a little petal round and weave it irregularly from side to side."
Jiang Ningning said and drew the shape of the roughly cut cloth on the corresponding location map.
Li Lan'er nodded seriously, "I see." ”
"Mom, then I'll go to bed first, and you can rest early."
"Okay, go to sleep."

When Jiang Ningning brought the new clothes and pants of the eldest brother and the second brother to the store, he didn't see the cleaned pig intestines, and the kitchen was empty.
The faces of the two elder brothers of the Jiang family were even more depressed, and when they saw her coming, Jiang Nanmu took the lead in walking over.
"Ning Ning, the butcher shop has increased the price of a pound of pig intestine by ten times, and it is exactly the same as the price of meat, and what they sell to other customers is not this price, it is clearly aimed at us on purpose! So we didn't dare to buy it this morning. ”
"We've asked about the butchers in the whole town, and none of them are willing to sell them to us at the normal price, and I don't know why."
Jiang Qingfeng also spoke, his face was not good, the price of the pig intestine they made was a pound, how could they take a piece to buy it and not deal with it.
"It's okay, then I'll take a day off today and I'll find out what the reason is. And this is a new dress that your mother made for you, you can try it to see if it fits. ”
Jiang Ningning replied calmly, took out the clothes he had packed and handed them to them.
"Okay." Jiang Nanmu stretched out his hand to take it, his interest was not high, their shop was about to be unable to open, he really couldn't be happy, he thought it was ...... will sell better and better, but I didn't expect these stalls in butcher shops to raise prices like this!
