Chapter 275 Everyone, come and see, Liu Chen's family has bought a sewing machine(1/2)
"Uncle, is this beautiful sister your partner?" Zhang Xiaoli blinked and looked at Gu Wanjun and said.
"Pfft" Liu Chen almost spit out a mouthful of salt soda.
Gu Wanjun also looked at Zhang Xiaoli in shock. How could this little girl, who was three or four years old, understand this? She is a brat.
Liu Chen turned his head and looked at Gu Wanjun, fearing that Gu Wanjun would be angry and wanting to see Gu Wanjun's reaction.
Liu Chen wanted to explain, but Gu Wanjun said with a smile: "Then do you like me to be your uncle's partner?"
Liu Chen was completely shocked this time. What kind of logic is this?
That's right, this Gu Wanjun is a "chivalrous woman", not a shy or stingy person.
Wang Xiong looked at them with a smile. He had always felt that Gu Wanjun and Liu Chen were a perfect match, one a "chivalrous woman" and the other a "hero." They were a perfect match.
"I like it, you are very beautiful."
"I like it too."
Zhang Xiaoli looked at Gu Wanjun with a smile and said. Just as Zhang Xiaoli finished speaking, Wu Yiyi continued.
Gu Wanjun hugged one and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will try my best to be your uncle, okay?"
"OK!"
"OK!"
The two nieces clapped their little hands and shouted.
"Then ask your uncle if he is willing?" Gu Wanjun said with a smile.
"Uncle, do you like your beautiful sister?"
"Uncle, I like her."
Liu Chen looked at the three people with a smile. As the saying goes, "Three women, one show, these three little girls."
Just when Liu Chen was about to answer, he saw a group of naughty children shouting: "Uncle Chen is back, Uncle Chen is back."
"You guys run, there are too many things to sit on."
Liu Chen drove the carriage, and the naughty boy ran behind him.
Soon, we arrived at the door of our house.
Hearing the commotion, many people came out to see: "Oh my god, Ah Chen, what did you bring?"
Wang Mudan, Mu Qing, Zhang Xiaoxin, Zhang Jiawei, and some people who came back from hunting pigweed or washing clothes by the river came to watch the fun.
"Oh my god, Ah Chen, is that a sewing machine?"
"Mom, that's a sewing machine."
"Wow, Ah Chen got a sewing machine!"
I don't know who shouted, and many members who had been preparing to go home just now came to watch the fun.
This is incredible, Liu Chen’s family actually bought a sewing machine.
At this time, everyone happened to be back from work.
Liu Chen didn't go home, he came directly.
Today the team is weeding corn and sweet potato fields, so everyone should get off work early.
Everyone saw a tractor parked in front of Liu Chen's house and saw a lot of things on the carriage, so they all came to watch the fun.
"Oh my God, Ah Chen, did your family buy a sewing machine?"
"Yes."
This answer directly shocked the entire Liutang team.
Everyone carried the things on the carriage into the house.
Follow us to see the strange club members.
Everyone wanted to see what this sewing machine looked like. Many of them were older and had never seen a sewing machine. The main reason was that no one in the Liutang team had one, not even Captain Liu’s family.
Many people suddenly poured into the room.
Liu Chen and the others put the sewing machine in the living room, and many people gathered around the sewing machine to look at it.
Wang Mudan blocked the child so that the child could not touch the sewing machine. It was a good thing and she dreamed of owning it. What if it broke?
Not only Wang Mudan, but also many members of the commune gathered around the sewing machine and stared at it, constantly saying, "Oh my god, this is really a sewing machine, this is a sewing machine."
Some naughty children came around to watch, and the adults next to them slapped their butts. If this precious thing is broken, who can afford to pay for it?
In this era, a woman who sewed clothes entirely by hand and had many children at home would have to work all night long under the dim kerosene lamp while working during the day.
How every woman wishes to have a sewing machine like this, which can save so much time, but in this era, one sewing machine costs more than 100, and it also has to sew airline tickets.
In this country, the number of families with a large labor force is only over 100 per year, and the ones with a small labor force only have a few dozen yuan. Who can afford to buy a sewing machine without food or drink? Even if you have money, you can't do it. You still have to have money.
Tickets. Farmers are all farmers, and those who farm do not have these tickets.
In this era, let alone ordinary farmers, even the entire commune may not necessarily have a few sewing tickets a year. Moreover, secretaries, brigade captains, and other captains in the village are arranged first. Who knows, they have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
.
Nowadays, there are really not many people in the entire brigade who can find a few sewing machines. Although it is said that marriages are now "three turns and one ring", sewing machines, watches, bicycles, and radios, but those who can afford these things are either government agencies or state-owned enterprises.
.
It's impossible for us poor-legged farmers to buy it. You don't have money, let alone tickets. You need tickets for all of these things, and these tickets are not easy to get.
"Ah, what is this? Why is it such a big lump?"
"Oh, that's the battery."
"What is a battery?"
"Hurry up and don't ask. You will know what it is later."
"Oh my god, this is cloth. It's such a big piece of cloth. It's cloth. How many new clothes can this make?" Everyone shouted when they saw a large roll of cloth on the carriage.
Wang Mudan was still staring at the sewing machine just now. Then she heard someone outside saying that there was cloth on the tractor, and there was a lot of cloth. She couldn't help it anymore, so she went to take a look first.
Wang Mudan went out. I didn’t know this. I was shocked when I saw it. It was too much. It was a whole roll of cloth. It was made of plain cotton. This kind of cloth is usually used in the 65-style military uniforms.
Fabric.
Liu Chen didn't think too much. Anyway, it felt like it was autumn now, and the weather would gradually get cooler in a while. This fabric could be used for autumn and winter clothes.
When Wang Xiong carried the cloth into the room and placed it on the Eight Immortals' table, everyone's eyes almost popped out of their heads.
Who has seen so much cloth? Even in a tailor shop, you can't see so many plain cotton cloths.
Who are these relatives of Liu Chen's family? Are they gods? How can they get so much cloth?
Everyone looked at the cloth on the Eight Immortals' table and were so envious that they wanted to grab it and leave.
In this day and age, it’s a big deal to be able to make new clothes once a year. For several years, I didn’t make a single new piece of clothing. They were made three years ago, three years new, three years old, and three years more mended.
More often than not, the boss gives it to the second child, and the second child gives it to the third child, and the third child passes it down. When it reaches the end, he is reluctant to throw it away. The clothes can still be used as shoes. Anyway, in this era, there is no such thing as throwing away clothes.
of.
Everyone put everything in the living room, and more people were leaving work at this time.
Liu Chen sent the carriage back, and he didn't know which aunt was here. The aunt came home with clothes. So Liu Chen's family bought a sewing machine and got a lot of cloth, and everyone came over.
After Liu Chen delivered the carriage to Liu Fugui, he walked home and saw many members walking towards Liu Chen's home.
"Ah Chen, I heard that you got a sewing machine?" Aunt Zhang was about to come to Liu Chen's house and saw Liu Chen halfway and said.
"Hehe, yes." Liu Chen smiled slightly.
Liu Chen thought to himself, it had just been delivered to his home, who had passed it on? It must have been too fast.
"Achen, you have made a lot of cloth, right?" Aunt Li quickly caught up with Liu Chen and asked.
Liu Chen smiled and nodded again.
"You are so awesome, kid. This is what we all dream of. Peony is so lucky." Aunt Wang said with envy.
Liu Chen just smiled and really didn't know how to answer.
Who spread this? A low-key person like me cannot spread this.
Hey, you have to keep a low profile, so you should hurry up and go back first. This group of women are asking all kinds of questions, so forget it.
Liu Chen just walked to the door of the yard and was shocked. There must be too many people here.
In the time it took me to deliver a carriage, dozens of people came to the yard. Many of them didn't even wash their hands and came to Liu Chen's house before they got home from work.
Entering the living room, everyone was talking about sewing machines and cloth.
"Achen is back, Achen is back."
Everyone looked at Liu Chen in unison.
"Baby, how did you buy this sewing machine? It's not cheap. Liu Jiefang had just finished work, and before he even got to the house, he heard someone telling him that Liu Chen had bought a sewing machine.
