The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 3 80 best sister-in-law 3

  Chapter 3 Eight Zero Best Sister-in-Law (3)

   Mrs. Xu was pulled into a chair by Xu Yin and sat down, and then handed her nephew an orange petal jelly candy wrapped in transparent cellophane. There were about a dozen of them, which looked like an orange.

  Xiao Douding's eyes lit up.

   "Let's eat!" Xu Yin said with a smile.

  He looked at his mother, then at Xu Yin, and timidly stretched out his little paw to take one.

  Don't dare to take more, for fear that the aunt will pinch him.

   Seeing this, Xu Yin stuffed the whole orange candy into his pocket.

  The small pocket immediately bulged out a big bag.

  Xiao Douding looked down a few times, then grinned.

   "Yinyin, how do you want to mend your pants?"

   Mrs. Xu picked up her pants and looked at them.

   Everything else is quite new, except that there is a small hole at the bottom of the trousers, which can be sewed with the same color thread.

   There is an obvious wear and tear on the buttocks, probably because the benches in the school are too rough.

   "Sew or patch?"

  Xu Yin didn't want to choose either.

   Asked my sister-in-law to cut off an inch from the bottom of the trousers, which just cut off the tear.

  Put the trousers back, and it will become a popular small trousers in later generations.

   Then draw two patches of jeans.

   "Cut out the same color fabric and stick it on the trousers, and you can get two more pockets by the way."

   "Hey, this is not bad. It has an extra layer, which can be used as a pocket and is also resistant to wear and tear."

   Mrs. Xu's sewing skills are very good, and she made the patches in two or three strokes.

  Sew it to the pants quickly, shake off the thread after sewing, and say in surprise:

   "It's like a new one after such a repair."

   And so stylish.

   "Really?" Xu Yin herself was quite satisfied.

  She has loved drawing since she was a child, including children's paintings, Chinese paintings, sketches, sketches...from kindergarten all the way to junior high school graduation.

  In the second year of junior high school, the family changed to a three-bedroom apartment, and the decoration of the home was designed by her.

  Teachers and classmates all said that she has a talent for design.

  With this talent and her later efforts, she won many awards.

  In the college entrance examination, I wanted to take the Central Academy of Fine Arts, but my parents and teachers said that her grades made it a pity to study in the Academy of Fine Arts.

   It is obvious that the key elite schools can make a breakthrough. If they perform well, Qingbei is not impossible.

   But she was very fond of design at that time.

  My parents couldn't hold her back, so they had to make a compromise—I studied industrial design at Tsinghua University Academy of Fine Arts as an undergraduate.

  Postgraduates were selected by her to pass the Donghua University's clothing and clothing design.

  Although I wear it before graduation, I have a good grasp of theoretical knowledge. In my spare time, I often buy some fabrics I like to practice.

  In addition to the previous two lives, she was dressed as the daughter of a small tailor in the Republic of China and the youngest daughter of a farmer in ancient times, so sewing is naturally a no-brainer.

  Not to mention just cutting a side, cutting and sewing two patches, it is not difficult to make a new pair of pants on the spot.

  But the key is that the original body can't.

  Let’s not talk about mending, let her put a needle through it, it’s estimated that the bleeding hole will be pricked in the finger.

  So I can only trouble my sister-in-law.

  By the way, open up some new ideas for my sister-in-law:

   "Flipped pants are popular in the city now. Girls in our school like them, but I don't think they look good. I still like this kind..."

  Xu Yin drew a sketch while talking:

   "Sister-in-law, I still have a piece of denim left over from making a coat last year, please make me a pair of pants like this."

"become!"

  Sister-in-law Xu agreed without saying a word.

  Anyway, in this family, sister-in-law's affairs are the top priority.

   Besides, just making a pair of pants is much easier than collecting firewood.

  Xu Yin did intend to make her do less heavy work.

  She remembered that her sister-in-law was born prematurely at the end of this year, and at the same time she gave birth to her little nephew, she died due to heavy bleeding.

   Calculating the time, Bao Buqi is already pregnant by now.

  Even if she is not pregnant, such a sallow and thin person is not conducive to raising a fetus and giving birth to a baby.

  But Xu's mother can't see her daughter-in-law at leisure.

   Seeing that the firewood was not finished chopping, he hid in the room and didn't know what he was doing. He was so angry that he crossed his hips and cursed in the yard:

   "Oh, I see whose daughter-in-law is as lucky as my Xu family, she can hide in the room before noon and be lazy..."

  Xu Yin hurriedly coaxed him into the main room: "Mom, my sister-in-law is helping me with something!"

   "Shouldn't you just mend your pants? Haven't finished it yet? I think she is deliberately avoiding laziness." Mother Xu said angrily.

"It's finished. I'll let her make me a new pair of pants. Mom, you don't know. The pants I painted are popular in the city now, but it's too expensive to buy ready-made ones. Let's find a tailor to make them. I'll go home I have inquired before that the orders in the hands of the old tailor will be lined up until the end of the year at the earliest, and I am not at ease with the craftsmanship of the apprentices. The fabrics I have finally saved, what should I do if they are broken? It happens that my sister-in-law is good at sewing and can save money. For a sum of money, rags can make a pair of shoes..."

  Mother Xu looked better when she heard the words, but she was still upset:

   "When can't pants and shoes be made, first chop the firewood, I think she is taking the opportunity to hide!"

"Oh, mom, the chopped firewood can last for two months. Let's put the rest away until the trousers are finished. Don't let my sister-in-law do heavy work for now. Look at her rough hands. I'm worried about mine. It’s a good material, but it was scooped before it was made into trousers. I still want to wear them to show off in front of my classmates! The ones they spend money on are not as good-looking as the ones I don’t spend money on.”

  Hearing what she said, Mother Xu tapped her forehead with her index finger:

   "You know how to be ugly! But my mother's good girl is beautiful, and she has the ability to be ugly! That's fine, let the old man be tired for two days, and the firewood will be chopped after the trousers are finished."

   "Yeah, don't let her go as well as picking up **** in the village."

  Since contracting fields to households, each family only needs to work on its own fields and mountains.

  The Xu family has a small population, so the land allocated to them is naturally not as much as other families.

   After the busy farming season, the whole family does not need to go to the field to serve all day long.

  But those old people in five-guarantee households who lost their husbands and sons during the war years suffered, especially the heavy work of picking manure.

  So the cadres of the brigade said that whoever helped the five-guarantee households to pick up the big dung, and at the end of the year the river pond was released to catch fish, would give a few extra catties to the family.

  Mother Xu signed up for her daughter-in-law without saying a word.

  Anyway, she is not the one who is tired, and at the end of the year, she can still earn some seafood for the family, so why not do it.

   "It's not a heavy job. It takes three or five days to turn, so it's not okay?" Mother Xu said disapprovingly.

   "Gee, that smells awful."

  Xu Yin pinched her nose and pretended to be disgusted.

   "I wanted to say it a long time ago. Every time I come back, the yard smells like that. My new pants are still in her room. Don't smell them before I wear them."

  Mother Xu made sense, but she still had some regrets:

   "If you don't pick it, don't pick it. It's cheaper for her this time. Just a few catties of fish and shrimp will be lost during the Chinese New Year. I don't know if you can get a whole piece of stewed tofu with fat head fish."

   "..."

  Anyway, under Xu Yin's coaxing moves, Xu's mother finally agreed not to assign heavy work to Mrs. Xu during this period of time.

  In addition to daily housework, other tasks will not be done until the pants are finished.
