Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

If it is just a simple piece of clothing, the little wives in the village can also make it.

Whether it’s beautiful or not, at least it’s something you can wear when going out.

But making a cotton-padded jacket requires skills and craftsmanship. If the craftsmanship is not good, the cotton will escape along the gaps in the sewing. A cotton-padded jacket will be out of cotton within a few days, and it will have no effect of keeping warm at all.

Moreover, those who are good at making cotton-padded jackets will know how to distribute the amount of cotton, so that the made cotton-padded jackets can be strong and warm, and maybe they can show off two flowers on the fabric, making it look more beautiful.

After listening to Lin Quan's explanation, Xu's mother suddenly realized.

"Oh, mother-in-law, just leave it alone and we'll do it."

Xu Huajing saw Mrs. Lin coming in with a large basin of water, and hurried forward to greet her.

Mother Lin said with a smile: "The stove is too small and can't boil much hot water at one time, so I will boil it in the pot faster. With hot water, you can soak your feet and feel more comfortable."

The eldest aunt, second aunt and aunt all wanted to help, but Mother Lin refused.

"You don't know how to make a stove in the countryside, but this one doesn't take much trouble. I'll do it in a moment."

Seeing this, Xu's mother hurriedly stood up: "My mother-in-law, let me help you. If we cooperate, we can go faster."

"That works."

Xu's mother pointed to the Xu brothers: "Come two people, take this basin of water to the kitchen and pour it into the pot."

Xu Maoran was the first to stand up. He saw that Mother Lin could lift the wooden basin filled with water by herself, but when she did it, she had to put in a lot of effort and the basin was only two centimeters above the ground.

"Why... it's so heavy." Xu Maoran's face turned blue as he spoke each word from between his teeth.

He felt like he had lost all his face this year today.

Mother Lin hurriedly said: "The wooden basins in the countryside are all made of solid wood. They are strong and heavy. Now they are filled with water. The weight is really heavy. It is really difficult to lift it without some skill."

Xu's mother said helplessly: "I told you to let two people come, and you can do it alone. Is that okay now?"

Xu Maoran moved a little to the side and pointed to his younger brother: "Come here quickly and let's help."

Brothers Xu Maoran and Xu Maotuan worked together to put the wooden basin on the stove and poured water into the pot.

Mother Lin took a look and said, "There are many of us, so I'm afraid this little water is not enough. We have to get another basin."

"We're going to fetch water. Where can we fetch water?"

"There is a well outside. Do you know how to use it?"

"I haven't used it before, but it shouldn't be difficult."

After hearing this, Mother Lin and Mother Xu left them alone.

It was the first time for the Xu family brothers to see a well, and each one was more curious than the other.

"I heard that it can come out just by pressing water on it, but why doesn't it work?"

"I'll give it a try."

"Or not……"

Several brothers took turns to fight, but no one could press the water out.

They are all outstanding members of the younger generation in Beijing, and they belong to what their parents call "other people's children."

But the brothers really didn't expect that now they would be stumped by a well.

In the kitchen, Mother Lin waited for a long time but no water came. She suddenly remembered something and said hurriedly: "It's broken. I forgot to tell them how to get the water out of the well. My mother-in-law, please help me light the fire first, and I'll go out." One trip.”

"Row."

After Mother Lin left, the eldest aunt and the second aunt went into the kitchen hand in hand, and saw Mother Xu in a large cotton-padded jacket sitting on a small horse, adding firewood to the stove, her movements were very skillful.

The red firelight fell on her face, making her look much gentler.

"It's been a while since I last saw you, and I feel like you've completely integrated in."

Xu's mother smiled and said: "This is just like doing as the Romans do. Do you want to try making a fire? It will be interesting."

"Let me try." The second aunt pulled Xu's mother up, sat on the pony, picked up a piece of firewood from the ground, and was about to add it to the stove.

"Oh, I have to wait until the firewood inside is almost finished before adding more."

"Isn't it true that the stronger the fire, the better?" the second aunt asked doubtfully.

"Of course, the stronger the fire, the better, but not the more firewood, the better. We have to do this first..."

In the yard, Mother Lin came out with a pot of hot water, pulled away the brothers who were surrounding the well, and poured the hot water on it.

"I forgot to tell you just now that it's freezing cold today, and the well is also frozen. You have to pour hot water on it to make the water inside flow, so that the well water can come out."

After pouring the hot water, another two or three minutes passed before Mother Lin started to fetch water. Sure enough, the well water flowed out.

"It's cold outside. Come inside quickly and I'll fetch water."

"It's okay, Auntie. We young people are not afraid of the cold. You can go in first and we will go in after we get water."

Mother Lin didn't insist anymore and went into the house to boil water.

After the water boiled, Lin An, who had gone out, came back with a stack of wooden basins.

Xu Wanning was shocked when she saw so many wooden basins, "Where did you get so many basins from?"

"I received a call from my dad in the morning, so I told Uncle Chen, the carpenter, to help make some wooden basins."

Uncle Chen and his son were both good at carpentry, and making wooden basins was the easiest, so in a long time, the father and son made ten of them.

A small family can have just one.

In the village, most of the family members share a basin. Some of them are not particular about washing their faces and feet in the same basin.

The Lin family never lived like this even in the most difficult times. Basically, everyone in the family had their own basin.

Lin An knew that Xu Wanning's family had always lived in the capital. Although they did not have much pursuit of material things, their living habits were definitely different from those in the countryside.

So he asked someone to help make the wooden basin early, but luckily he was able to do it in time.

"Uncle Chen is still working on it. I'll pick it up tomorrow morning. I'll just make do with it tonight."

The eldest aunt said: "Lin An, there is no need to go to such trouble."

When they go out, they also know that the conditions cannot be compared with those at home, so they are mentally prepared before coming.

But they didn't expect that both Lin An and Lin's mother would think of all the little details for them.

This made everyone feel very emotional and moved.

Only when you truly care about Xu Wanning and care about her feelings will you notice these small details. You only hope that her family can live a more comfortable time when they come home.

While the family was washing up, Xu Wanning dragged Lin An to the bedroom and locked the door.

"Although there is a kang at home, it still gets cold when you get up at night. I need you to cooperate with me."

"What do you need me to do?"

Xu Wanning took out more than ten sets of warm clothes out of thin air.

There are men's models and women's models, all of which are the simplest styles without any patterns on them.
