There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Zhou Xiaozheng watched him smile straight at everyone and rush into the back room, but he didn't pay attention, he was still sitting there listening to Mr. Cheng tell some biography and chatting with them.

If he knew that his daughter was busy making his jacket at this moment, he would probably have jumped up a long time ago for fear that his precious daughter would hurt her hands and eyes.

Zhou Jiao saw him coming in in a hurry, holding a pack of furs, her eyes lit up, and because her son was asleep, she slowed down and walked to Zhang Guoqing, I found the mink, you are really good. Put it on the table and watch. look.

I found a master tailor, but he couldn't catch up with tomorrow. There is no other way, I can only bring it back for you to see. Can you start sewing before confinement? No, I will take the fabric and go back to the village to find my second sister-in-law.

Zhou Jiao opened it to look at the contents, picked up a few sable hairs, and compared them, It's okay, I made clothes for the little girl at home a few days ago, as long as it's not embroidery, just one or two things won't get in the way. Wait. You can see it when I do it. I hate what other people do, and this color needs to be stitched well to show its grade.

After finishing speaking, he went to the bed and took out the army green cloth in the space, and moved it to the table, You see, everything is complete, and I will be ready soon. You put all these things in the cabinet first. You can tidy them up at night. .”

Zhang Guoqing hid the things, sat beside her, and watched her quickly thread the needles, cut two pieces of cloth with scissors, put away the rest of the fabric, and just like this, with his hands flying, he made two military pieces in a short while. Green bodysuit model. He looked at his watch in disbelief, and it didn't exceed fifteen minutes.

Then he saw her put the sable fur on her hands, and began to move back and forth on the table a few times, he understood that it was intended to be a gradient color.

Zhou Jiao quickly stitched the seam with needle and thread, grabbed the green jacket and put it on the table, spread it out, put the sewn fur on it, and started to stitch the stitches. After a while, it was finished, and she grabbed it and shook it. Begin to sew the fur beyond the fabric into the garment. After waiting for half an hour, the two jackets were so exquisite that they couldn't be seen to be handmade, and the lines were as straight as machine sewing.

Zhang Guoqing sighed, I heard you say that your female worker is very good, this is not very good, this is completely a master level. It takes less than an hour to make two clothes. You take a break first, I will go to the closet to find some clothes. Buttons for you.

Zhou Jiao looked at him with a smile and was busy unbuttoning. Is this a master level? She plans to use the red silk and satin in the space to make clothes for her son to wear on the full moon. When the time comes, simply embroider a tiger and put on a gold zipper.

Looking at the pure white mink fur in the rest of the fur, Zhou Jiao gestured at the length with her hands. The splicing of the two pieces can also be used to make a scarf for her mother, which looks very elegant. He found the light-colored fabric in the space, cut a long strip, and started to work. When Zhang Guoqing finally took a few buttons, he found that Zhou Jiao was almost finished.

Zhang Guoqing saw that she was done, took it over and observed carefully, and found that the splicing parts had been processed, and it could not be seen that they were spliced. It's exactly the same as the one I bought, This white one will look good on you. I'll find a sable man to make you a scarf later on. If I'm lucky, I can make you a short coat if I'm not sure. It must look good.

Zhou Jiaole nodded, Okay, I'll wait for your fur, it will definitely be warm to wear. It's a pity that I don't know how to make shoes, or I can make you furry boots, which are light and warm, not as heavy as military boots. Last time I tried military boots, I was afraid that I would not have the strength to walk.”

Zhang Guoqing listened and looked at her small body. Laughing so hard that he couldn't get up on the table, and worried that he would wake up his son, the table trembled. This reminded him that during this period of time, he would find a shoemaker to make some lightweight boots.

Zhou Jiao looked at him and smiled, and also laughed in a low voice, It's nothing strange, don't you think that the military boots weigh twenty catties? And the military coat is very warm, but I am used to wearing down jackets, and it feels so heavy. You Just imagine, when I put on my army cap, my army boots, and my army coat, will I still be able to move?

Zhang Guoqing was so happy just thinking about it, he hurriedly waved his hands and walked out, standing in the yard laughing, the more he thought about it, the more funny it became, until he was tired of laughing, he straightened up, saw Zhang's mother and the others looking at him worriedly, another burst of laughter laughing out loud.

Cheng Lao asked curiously: Xiao Wu, tell us quickly, what kind of fun did you encounter that made you laugh like this?

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly walked to the living room, It's nothing, it's just funny to think about it. Just now Jiaojiao said that she tried on military boots, they were really heavy, and I was afraid that she would not have the strength to walk. I think her small body is not enough. In the end, this silly girl Let me see, can she move with a military cap, a military coat, and military boots? Ouch, the more I think about it, the more amusing I am.

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at the big guys laughing, but he didn't laugh, he was worried, Then have you figured out a way? This kid needs to be mended, his body is too weak.

Zhang Guoqing nodded, Think it over, find a shoemaker to make a few pairs of boots, and after the hat is knitted with wool, it will be very warm if you stuff it with fur inside. It's okay to wear a military coat when you go out.

Well, after confinement, you supervise her to run and exercise. I think those recruits can't run at first, but they will be fine later. Dad will go back and see if there are any light warm clothes. There are some in Xinjiang. Sheepskin boots, sheepskin gloves, you just make do with it, wait until I go back to find out who is from Xinjiang, and give money to someone to bring them back.”

Zhang Guoqing shook his head, It's really unnecessary. I'll find local ones to do these, and the speed is also fast. You are very troublesome to find someone, and you are indebted. There is no shortage of furs here. If you find someone to do it, you can choose what she likes.

Lin Lishan frowned, thought for a long time, and finally found a way, Leave it to me. I can find someone to send it directly. I really didn't expect this without Jiaojiao's mention. I felt very heavy when I put it on.

Mom, you go in and see what Jiaojiao has done, and you will know that you don't need to find someone. She is very dexterous.

Lin Lishan, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Cheng went into the bedroom and saw Zhou Jiao blushing, and smiled at them embarrassedly, probably because they heard voices from outside.

As soon as Mrs. Cheng came in, she saw two jackets on the table. Judging from the style, the child probably had just prepared them for her father. There were cloth heads on them, and the needles and threads were still on the table.

You're still in confinement, and you'll have time to do needlework later. Don't do it next time. Well, this workmanship is really good. It's still made of mink, to keep you warm. Mrs. Cheng touched the inside and nodded with satisfaction.

Zhou Jiao nodded quickly, I know, I don't do complicated and tired eyes. This is simple, just a few stitches, and it just happened to be taken back for my dad to wear inside.

The old lady Cheng grinned and touched the cloth-wrapped buttons, and nodded secretly, it was really clever. This child is meticulous in everything, Your father didn't love you for nothing. Good boy, you are worthy of your father's love. It is good to have a girl, but the son is gone. Your father can't keep his mouth shut when he wears it. Except your father's, Who else are you going to give it to?

Zhou Jiao saw Mrs. Cheng's eyes looking at Zhang's mother's ticket, and she immediately understood, I thought my parents and my in-laws prepared it, but firstly, the materials were not complete, and secondly, I was still in confinement. Take good care of your body. Zheng and Xiaowu plan to collect fur during this period, and it just happens that they are out of confinement and ready to wear them for the winter.

With a smile in her eyes, Mrs. Cheng continued, It's right to think so. You have to confine yourself well. In the future, you will have a chance to be filial to them.

Mother Zhang quickly waved her hand, Don't prepare for us, your parents always stay outside at work, there is a need. We don't need these things in winter. Don't bother with them. After confinement, you can do nothing. Knit sweaters and trousers for your father, your mother goes to work every day, so she must have no time, but you know how to do needlework, so you have nothing to do.

Zhou Jiao complained with a smile: Mother, you forgot again, you should say that I will wait for you to deliver the clothes, and continue happily. Be careful, I will take it seriously in the future, and I won't remember you.

Zhang's mother laughed loudly, and said cheerfully: Okay, listen to you. Waiting for spring to do it. You should do your father's work first. Jiaojiao, mother first ask Xiao Wu to take me to your eldest sister's house, and you accompany your aunt, grandma and the others. Let's talk. Mother will come back when she goes.

Zhou Jiao got up quickly, watched her go, breathed a sigh of relief, and made a face at her mother. He took out the scarf from the closet and handed it to her, Mom, here's it for you, do you like it? I can't make a jacket for you because I ran out of material, don't be angry, you think I'm not close to you.

I'm afraid that my dad will have a bad life outside these years, and I'm afraid of being cold, so I hold him tight first, and put him on to protect his chest to keep him warm, otherwise they won't be frozen when they go out to exercise without a coat in winter. Don’t knit Dad’s sweater or trousers, I’m fast, and I’ll send it to you when I finish knitting it. You remember to see if my dad has a bad stomach, and you must remind him to pay attention to his health. I heard that scrambled eggs with badger seed oil can cure stomach upset, so I prepared it.

Don't keep the ginseng, both of you, eat the stewed chicken. When I look back, I see that I want to buy two more, and my aunt and grandma will also make up for it. This time, the time is too hasty. You will leave tomorrow, and I am not prepared.

Lin Lishan fondled the scarf, listened to her babbling, and complained: Got it, housekeeper. I will definitely take good care of your dad. Can you worry about it at a young age?

Mrs. Cheng nodded in agreement, You are still young, don't prepare anything. My aunt and grandma are not outsiders, and there is no shortage of those things at home. It is very troublesome to send them back and forth. I will let him check your father's health, and there is ginseng at home I will also make up for him. If you have something to eat for yourself, write to your aunt if you need something. Don’t forget about us. My aunt has private money and a lot of salary every month. It’s very convenient to buy things in our compound. What do you want to buy? Just buy what you can. If you are in short supply, don’t ask someone to owe you favors. My aunt and grandma will send it to you. Don’t buy milk powder for children.”

Oh, don't buy milk powder, you can't finish it. My mother brought it back last time, and Xiao Wu bought it again. I took a bag for my mother-in-law to let the children drink. There is still a lot of brown sugar at home. I can’t finish eating, and the cabinet is full of fabrics and so on. Aunt, grandma, my mother buys me a carload of things. My family is very rich, and I really don’t need anything. You and my mother don’t Send it over, and I’ll ask you for it when it’s gone.”

Lin Lishan was overjoyed when she heard that, and gave her a hard look, You're a silly girl. If you don't know, you really think that you can't even pile up your things. Just those two or three bolts of fabric, you don't even have a few pairs of underwear, and you can't even stuff them Can't fit.

Auntie, don't listen to her, don't send anything first, I will find you if I can't buy it. This girl is afraid that I will always stare at me when I buy things, frowning, Mom, keep a low profile. Mom, save yourself some time.

Look at yourself, you are so thin that you will blow away in a strong wind. You haven't recovered your mind this confinement, and your face is still sallow and emaciated. Still worried about your dad, take care of yourself first. If you can stay in the county, don't go back foolishly. You don't want to cook here, and you can go directly to Master Fat to eat. It won't cost you much.

Don't stop the stove in the kitchen, just keep stewing. If you have a small appetite, go to the kitchen to eat when you are hungry. The clothes and sheets at home are all washed by others. I have agreed with your Aunt Cheng, and she will help find someone. If it wasn't for your mother-in-law's opinion, your father would have hired someone to take care of you. Take good care of your body this time, close the door, and ignore everything. After the full moon has passed safely, you will come here immediately. I told Xiao Wu, and he agreed. Remember?

Zhou Jiao smiled flatteringly at her, Mom, don't talk more and more to get angry. Your daughter is smart, and when you see me later, you will definitely become a big fat man.

Lin Lishan sighed, and said helplessly: You are smart, but your temper is easy to suffer. You are always thinking of others, and your heart is soft. You must always remember that you are only 17 years old, you can be coquettish, you can play tricks, there is no need to be so sensible You can do whatever you want, why bother to wrong yourself for others.

Zhou Jiao laughed straight after hearing this, and winked secretly at Mrs. Cheng, Mom, it's a good thing that my aunt is here. Others must be terrified when they hear it. Don't worry, I won't suffer. It's really a disadvantage. I wrote to You, you help me get back the place.

In the article, the name of Mrs. Cheng was wrong, and it has been corrected. Thank you for reminding me.
