Siheyuan: There are seven fairies in my house, I am so busy

"Don't worry, my second sister has already made plans. I know what kind of clothes to make for whom, and I guarantee that everyone in the family will be satisfied."

The second sister was full of confidence, and Zhang Jialiang also believed in her. He was very aware of his second sister's talent in this area.

My second sister has loved sewing and mending since she was a child. She has never received any systematic training, but she taught herself based on her talent and soon became the best clothes maker in their area.

"Second sister, you have seen a lot of fabrics before, why are you so excited this time?"

Zhang Jialiang teased Zhang Jiani. Normally, Zhang Jiani was not so talkative, but she never stopped talking after leaving the garment factory.

"How can it be the same?

The usual fabrics belong to other people, but these are our own. Our own things are better and look more comfortable no matter how we look at them. "

Zhang Jiani didn't care when she saw her brother making fun of her. He said, "Let him make fun of her if he wants. She is very happy anyway."

"Second sister, it's October now, and winter is coming soon. I'll get some cotton and you can make cotton clothes and shoes for everyone in the family. We can't let them get cold hands and feet anymore."

I don’t know what’s going on, but the weather in this era is extremely cold in winter, and people don’t have many cotton-padded clothes for the winter, so people suffer a lot when winter comes, especially Zhang Jialiang’s family.

It was really difficult to get cotton and cloth. One reason was that they were expensive, and the other was that cotton coupons and cloth coupons were extremely scarce. Zhang Jialiang's family could not even save enough cotton coupons for two sets of cotton clothes in a year.

This resulted in the family members always having frozen hands and feet, and their fingers and toes were always swollen like radishes in winter. This was Zhang Jialiang's deepest impression of winter.

He is not short of money now, and he will definitely not let his family suffer like in previous years.

"real?

You can also get cotton, which is even harder to find. If you can really get cotton, this winter will be easier.

Especially the fifth sister, who had to deal with water all day when cooking, her hands and feet were the most frozen.

Leave the cotton-padded clothes to me. Cotton-padded clothes don’t need these new fabrics. They are worn inside anyway, so some old fabrics that have been washed and disassembled can be used. As long as there is cotton, it will be fine.”

When Zhang Jiani heard her brother suddenly say that he could find cotton, she became even more excited.

In fact, in real life, it doesn’t matter whether clothes look good or not, the key is practicality.

Especially winter cotton-padded clothes. If you have a thick and warm cotton-padded clothes in winter, the whole winter will not be so uncomfortable.

Cotton is just too precious, so Zhang Jiani believed her brother when he said he could get cotton.

Recently, my younger brother has been very capable. He found a job for my eldest sister, arranged a job for my fifth sister, and bought a new house and a bicycle for the family. Most importantly, he also ensures that the family can have meat to eat every once in a while.

Zhang Jiani has seen the gradual improvement in the family's living conditions, and of course her younger brother has made the biggest contribution.

So when her brother said he could get cotton, she didn't doubt it.

She has already begun to imagine that in winter, everyone in the family will wear thick and warm cotton clothes and no longer have frozen hands and feet.

When everyone in the Zhang family returned home in the evening, they soon found out that Zhang Jialiang had obtained a lot of fabrics from the garment factory.

Zhang Jiani also promised to make a nice new dress for everyone.

At this moment, the whole family became excited, and the happiest ones were Zhang Jiali and Xiao Lanhua.

Zhang Jiali was truly happy from the bottom of her heart. She was the person in the Zhang family who loved dressing up and showing off the most.

She was still young and didn't have much ability, so she could only spend time on some small accessories. She couldn't afford large clothes.

Although she washed her clothes clean every day, they were too old after all, because she was the youngest daughter in the Zhang family.

From childhood to adulthood, I have hardly ever worn any new clothes. I only wore hand-me-down clothes left by my older sisters, which had many patches on them.

It's been three years of mending. I'm not kidding. One of the patches on the dress Zhang Jiali is wearing now was put on by Zhang Jiamei when she wore it three years ago.

Now she heard that her brother had actually gotten new fabric and her second sister had agreed to make her a new dress, which made her so happy that she was stunned by the sudden happiness.

As far as she can remember, she had rarely worn new clothes. The only new piece of clothing she had was a pair of new cloth shoes that her second sister made for her on her birthday last year.

Zhang Jiali is a girl who loves dressing up and being pretty. Whenever she sees other peers, classmates and friends wearing beautiful new clothes to go to school and play, she is filled with envy.

Zhang Jiali is also the cleanest person in the entire Zhang family, and her clothes have never been dirty.

Although the clothes were worn out, she always washed them clean and folded them neatly, even her socks were folded and placed neatly.

Although Zhang Jiali is not very old, only 12 years old, she is the one who washes the most clothes for Zhang Jialiang now.

Whenever she washed her own clothes, she would always wash the clothes of other people in the family together. Her quilt and bed were always the cleanest and tidy.

Now, of course she was excited when she suddenly heard that she was going to have a new set of clothes. She had dreamed about it, so she couldn't wait to run to her second sister.

"Second sister, what kind of new clothes are you going to make for me?

I am still young and growing. If it is too small, I may not be able to wear it next year. Then I will have to add some cloth to it and it will not look good.

It’s not good to make it bigger now, it will look ugly when worn.

Second sister, you are so capable, can you help me think of a solution?

It would be nice if it could look good now and still be worn next year, or even better, the year after.”

Zhang Jiali looked at Zhang Jiani with anticipation, her little face showing both excitement and nervousness.

"You clever little thing, you're the only one who has too many requests, and you have such beautiful dreams. You even want to wear new clothes for three years."

Zhang Jiani tapped Zhang Jiali's forehead. She understood Eighth Sister's thoughts very well. It was not easy to have a new set of clothes.

Eighth sister is a girl who loves beauty, so of course she wants to be able to wear her clothes for many years, otherwise she doesn’t know when she will make new clothes next time.

"Second sister, please help me.

I will definitely take good care of my clothes and never let them get damaged or patch them, so that I can have nice clothes to wear for many years.

Please, second sister! "

Zhang Jiali grabbed Zhang Jiani's arm and shook it hard. She looked at her second sister with longing on her face and kept saying nice things.

"Stop shaking, it makes me dizzy.

You little girl, don’t you know who to follow?

You are the best one in our family.

Okay, isn’t it enough for Second Sister to promise you?

This is not a problem for me, second sister. I will give you some more wealth and hide it inside your clothes. I will let some out as you grow taller. Are you satisfied now?"
