Chapter Eighty-Seven

"No wonder you're so enthusiastic, it turns out that those two newcomers are Zhao Xiaobao's father, Cheng, I'll watch it."

"Uncle Niu, you agreed."

"Well, but I have to help quietly, and you can help me get some cotton first, I really can't wear these pants."

Li Huan nodded again and again, cotton, there are many cotton tires in the daughter-in-law's magic weapon, just take one out and pull out the cotton inside, don't be too convenient.

Lao Niutou watched Li Huan leave, and began to think about how to help the couple in the backyard, there is really another couple here, they are capitalists, you must know that the hearts of capitalists are very bad.

That night, Uncle Niu took the cotton sent by Li Huan and knocked on the door of the backyard, and it was Zhu Qingde who came to open the door, and when he saw Uncle Niu, he hurriedly smiled:

"Brother Niu, why are you here, do you have something to do?"

"Well, which of you can make clothes?"

Uncle Niu asked stubbornly, he didn't want Zhu Qingde's daughter-in-law to make clothes, Zhu Qingde shook his head in disappointment, his wife would only buy clothes, not make clothes.

"Your daughter-in-law doesn't know how to make clothes?"

Uncle Niu asked loudly, Zhu Qingde shook his head again, Xiao Aiqin walked out quickly, looked at Uncle Niu with a smile and said, "Brother Niu, I will do a little, what do you want to do." ”

Uncle Niu laughed, it seems that God is still helping the couple, and handed over the fabric and a bag of cotton in his hand:

"No, make me a pair of pants, the same one on me."

Xiao Aiqin glanced at the pants on Uncle Niu's body, which was a pair of upright cotton pants, which was too easy, so he hurriedly took the fabric and cotton, and said that he would rush out as soon as possible.

"I won't let you do this for nothing, a pair of pants will give you five catties of sorghum noodles, how about three bundles of firewood."

"This ...... Thank you so much Brother Niu, I will accept it with a cheeky face. ”

Xiao Aiqin didn't expect that there would be such a good thing, so she happily took the fabric and walked into the house, but when she walked into the house, she remembered that she didn't have needles and scissors in her hands at all, and she didn't even have a ruler.

After thinking about it and knocking on the door next door, Yuan Mengzhi had already listened to their conversation in her ears, and she was already jealous in her heart, why don't you just make a pair of pants, and actually give five catties of sorghum noodles and three bundles of firewood.

"Who?"

Hearing the knock on the door, Yuan Mengzhi opened the door impatiently, and when she saw that it was Xiao Aiqin, she couldn't help pouting and waited for the other party to speak without saying a word.

Xiao Aiqin is also a person who can read his face, knowing the conversation with Brother Niu just now, this Comrade Yuan should have heard it, and it is estimated that his heart is unbalanced, hey~

"This Comrade Yuan, I want to ask you if there are scissors, rulers and needles and threads here, I will exchange them with you for a pound of sorghum noodles, no, borrow them from you."

Yuan Mengzhi's brows moved, she really has these things, but a pound of sorghum noodles seems to be a little less, so let's not add a bundle of firewood.

Xiao Aiqin's face was a little ugly, but the Qiao woman was embarrassed to cook without rice, so she could only nod and agree, and then she got something from Yuan Mengzhi's hands.

"You have to be careful with it, if it breaks, you have to pay for it."

Yuan Mengzhi put a small basket in Xiao Aiqin's hand, and said a word of advice with anxiety, Xiao Aiqin glanced at the basket in his hand, nodded and went back to the house.

When Zhao Guoliang came back with a large bundle of firewood, Xiao Aiqin had already started to sew pants, but it was already dark, so he could only pack up and prepare for dinner.

"Lao Zhao, I took a job today, to help Brother Niu in front of me make a pair of cotton pants, and people gave five catties of sorghum noodles and three bundles of firewood."

Zhao Guoliang raised his eyebrows, and he already guessed in his heart whether it would be the help of this kid Qian Longkun, otherwise there are so many old ladies in the village, who can't make clothes and pants, where is their turn.

"But I didn't have scissors and needlework, so I borrowed it from the next door and promised to give someone a pound of sorghum flour and a bundle of firewood."

Zhao Guoliang couldn't help laughing when he saw his wife looking a little aggrieved, he patted Xiao Aiqin's shoulder, and whispered:

"If you are willing to ask you for something, you are afraid of making it bad in secret, you have to be careful, when you see that your eyes are not eyes, and your nose is not your nose, you have to be careful."

Xiao Aiqin glanced at Yuan Mengzhi's door, nodded, and said that they were all fallen people at the end of the world, so why can't they be sympathetic.

When Qian Longkun got the meat, he knew that Li Huan had asked Zhao Xiaobao's mother to help Uncle Niu make pants, and he was very happy, but Zhao Xiaobao looked at Qian Longkun with a distressed face.

Qian Longkun didn't know why, Zhao Xiaobao reminded in a whisper: "You don't need needles and scissors to make clothes, his parents will definitely not have them here." ”

Qian Longkun hurriedly returned to the dormitory and took out a pair of scissors and a small ball of wire from the cabinet, but the scissors were the kind of small scissors that cut fingernails, and the line drawing was estimated to only make up a hole.

"I have it at home, and I'll send it tomorrow."

Li Huan rolled his eyes, what a big deal, isn't it just a pair of scissors and some needlework, can you use such a sad face.

"Brother Huan, this meat ......"

Qian Longkun saw that Li Huan was leaving, so he hurriedly ran two steps and handed over the meat, it turned out that the meat was not eaten by themselves, but for Zhao Xiaobao's parents.

"No, it's only been two days since they came to eat meat, do you want to make them better?"

Li Huan refused, there is not only your parents' family over there, but also a couple from the capital, it is said that the man is a Chinese medicine practitioner, and the woman is a capitalist lady.

Seeing Li Huan's unswerving face, Qian Longkun nodded knowingly, anyway, the weather is cold now, and the cooked meat can be left for a few days, and he will secretly go there once that night.

In two days, Yuan Mengzhi made cotton pants, Uncle Niu put on new cotton pants, felt comfortable all over, and then looked at the stitches of the cotton pants, which were really delicate.

"Brother Niu, these cotton and cloth are surplus, return them to you."

"There's more, then you can't make shoes, if you can, help me make a pair of cotton shoes, and the rest of the materials will be given to you."

Xiao Aiqin looked at the fabric and cotton in his hand, these can make three pairs of shoes, or make two pairs for Brother Niu and one pair for Lao Zhao.

"Brother Niu, I can make shoes, but I don't have tools in my hands."

"Oh, I forgot about this, you wait, I remember that my daughter-in-law left these things, and it's useless for me to ask for an old man, so I'll give them to you."

Uncle Niu found a basket from the house, which not only contained needles and threads, scissors and rulers, but also several pairs of soles, which was obviously Uncle Niu's size.

"Great, it's convenient to have this, Brother Niu, I'm just borrowing it, and I'll have a chance later...... I'll give it back to you later. ”

Uncle Niu shook his hand, what else, didn't he put it in the cabinet to eat ashes, since the new pants were on, he went to show the little ruffian, so that he could be happy.
