Chapter 50 The Liang family makes clothes, and the years are quiet
After the joke, Gu Shuixiu immediately asked Luo Ying to bring all the guys out. Four square tables formed a large table, where two people could sit on one side, and eight people could sit down, which was enough for them to make trouble. A shed was placed in each position, with all the needles and threads in it, and some thimble scissors and knives needed for embroidery work.
There were many cloths placed in the middle of the table, including cotton, coarse cloth, and brocade.
The brocade was specially taken out by Gu Shuixiu. I don’t know if Liang would use brocade to make clothes. After all, they were all rich and had a better vision than them.
To Gu Shuixiu's surprise, Liang did not pick the brocade, but picked two pieces of fine cotton cloth and a navy blue coarse cloth.
Gu Shuixiu asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, don't you choose brocade? Although this brocade is not as good as that of Jiankang, it is indeed the best brocade in the town."
Liang shook his head and said, "What kind of brocade is like now in our family? Besides, this is in the mountains. It is better to wear coarse cloth than to wear brocade, and it is not practical at all!
I made a cloth suit for the head of the family, and made a coat for him with coarse cloth, which was more convenient when walking in the mountains. As for father-in-law, he just made a cloth suit. He didn’t often go in the mountains, making a coat of coarse cloth suit is also a waste. Jiang An’s is much simpler, and he can make a cloth suit with these scraps."
Gu Shuixiu smiled when she heard this. She didn't expect that Liang was so frugal. "Sister-in-law doesn't plan to do something for herself?"
In addition to those fabrics suitable for men, there are many red, purple, pink, water blue and tender yellow fabrics on the table. Any batch of these fabrics can be worn by Liang.
Liang paused and said dryly: "If I can make the clothes for the three of them, I will consider it."
When they started to use needles and threads, Gu Shuixiu finally understood what Liang said. She didn't know what she had grown up with. She seemed to be born with divine power. Those embroidered needles were deformed after being pinched twice by her!
Hao and Dong Yunmei were dumbfounded and stopped their work.
At this time, Liang was in a state of selflessness and kept competing with the embroidery needles, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's true, why is this thing so immature? I've started to stitch it and can't replace it... It's really annoying! I'll make a pair of needles that can't even bend even if the hammer is used, and hit the cloth shops' faces..."
Gu Shuixiu was stunned when she heard this. Is Liang planning to build a hidden weapon or an embroidery needle? He even had to bend the hammer! Looking at her like that, if she continued to sew it, the cloth would be rotten.
Gu Shuixiu came back to her senses and smiled quickly, "Sister-in-law, do you want to see us demonstrate? According to your method, even if it gets dark, you can't make a sleeve..."
Gu Shuixiu didn't want to say it so straightforwardly, but Liang is a straightforward person. If you say too tactful words to her, she might not understand them.
Liang was not ashamed of Gu Shuixiu's words, but nodded seriously, approached Gu Shuixiu, watched seriously and listened carefully.
Gu Shuixiu was dry and Liang finally got a trick. Gu Shuixiu sighed, but she didn't expect that it would be so tiring to teach others. When Shen Shikang wanted to teach a group of naughty little guys, Gu Shuixiu immediately felt awe of Shen Shikang.
Liang found some skills and was so excited. Seeing that Liang stopped pestering her, Gu Shuxiu began to make clothes seriously.
Except for Liang, who is a novice, everyone else is a veteran. It only takes an hour to make a dress. It is more than enough to make a family of clothes all day long.
Dong Yunmei was even more relaxed. She just had to do one for Zuo Qingsong and her two daughters, and as for the two little guys who were still in cradles, she wouldn't have to do it, so Dong Yunmei was the first to finish work.
Hao mainly made it for herself and Qin Chuan. Both were adults and had to tailor her clothes and could not get fast. Liu Yueyi had to make her in-laws and also for Qin Shan and Qin Zuxin. No matter how fast she was, she could not do it early like Dong Yunmei.
What's more, what they are doing now is just single clothes, and they will have to use cotton to make cotton jackets later. I'm afraid they will use them all day today.
It was almost noon, and the sun was the warmest. After class, the children all gathered around to watch the fun. The cotton was warmed by the sun. Dong Youyou fell in and didn't want to come out. The others looked eager to try.
Hao was afraid that they would flatten the cotton, so he would tidy it up at that time, so he quickly shouted and drove them away.
Cuixi had already prepared the lunch meal now, so Gu Shuixiu simply asked them to stop and eat, and the things continued to be placed in the yard. The cotton that was flattened by Dong Youyou would soon fluffy again under the sun exposure.
Lunch is still made of dry rice. The Shen family came from Jiankang. I guess they would like pasta more. In order to take care of them, Gu Shuixiu specially asked Cuixi to make more pasta.
Sure enough, Liang stopped eating when he had noodles and ate them until he was full.
Shen Shikang and Shen Ziping both ate some. Shen Ziping mainly ate rice. He wants to go out and walking outside requires a lot of energy. He is easy to get hungry when eating noodles.
After lunch, the children were driven to take a nap by Shen Shikang. Gu Shuixiu was a pregnant woman and needed rest. Dong Yunmei was in poor health and could not be tired. Hao and Liu Yueyi did not stay at Dong's house for meals and would not come so quickly.
The only one left in the yard that was still busy in the morning was still competing with the embroidery needle. Shen Ziping wanted to come over to talk to her, but she was driven away by her.
Shen Ziping touched his nose, feeling a little bored. Seeing Liang's crazy look, he couldn't hear what he said, so he left helplessly.
Gu Shui slept beautifully, got up happily and came to the yard. He found that Liang had already made a set of clothes. Although the stitches were a bit distorted, it was a great improvement compared to the morning.
Gu Shuixiu smiled and congratulated her, then asked again: "Sister-in-law, is the clothes you made for Brother Shen or Mr. Shen?"
This dress can be said to be a masterpiece of Liang's practice. It is logical that it is more suitable for Shen Ziping, but the problem is that this fabric was used to make clothes for Shen Shikang. With this skill, Liang was embarrassed to give this dress to Shen Shikang.
Seeing her embarrassed look, Gu Shuixiu really wanted to laugh.
In the end, this set of clothes was returned to Shen Ziping. Liang made two more clothes and finally gave Shen Shikang the most satisfied outfit.
After several women finished their clothes, the sun had already set. Without the sun, the cold immediately became cold in the mountains. The biting chill was really unbearable.
