Chapter 85 Making clothes, making hair bands
The second idiot felt uncomfortable when he saw the third widow staring at him. Although his wife at home was not good-looking, he didn't like the third widow who was ten years older than him!
Besides, these three widows have a bad reputation. Since they were young, they have liked to coax men into working for her family.
He is not stupid!
Erluzi thought about it and waited until autumn to build a house far away from the three widows.
So scary!
He has four sons. If he is blackmailed in such a shameless way, the family's already bad reputation will be even worse, and the sons will not be able to find a wife in the future.
Liu Pan'er didn't know anything about what happened next.
That's right if she doesn't stop.
When they were far away, Liu Pan'er slowed down a little and met Zhou Cuihua halfway, "Oh, I'm exhausted. I have to take a break to catch my breath."
Seeing this, Zhou Cuihua asked in confusion: "What are you doing walking so fast? There is no dog chasing you, so don't be in a hurry when you work, just walk slowly."
Liu Pan'er patted her chest and said calmly, "There is no dog chasing me behind, but there is a mangy man who is more difficult to tangle than a dog. If I get entangled, it is a waste of time and may be unlucky."
Zhou Cuihua was stunned, then shook her head and laughed, "Haha, you were stopped by the third sister-in-law, right?"
Liu Pan'er nodded, "I almost stopped her, but I pretended not to hear, quickened my pace, and ran away, but she didn't catch up with me. I knew she was looking for me for something bad, and I didn't want to deal with it!"
Zhou Cuihua smiled bitterly and sighed, "You can just ignore it. When I passed by her door just now, I was stopped. She kept crying in front of me, saying that she had no food or money at home and couldn't live her life.
."
When Liu Pan'er heard this, she was really frightened, "Fortunately I didn't stop. No matter what, I will not lend my hard-earned money to such a lazy person with bad character. Aunt, you borrowed it
?”
Zhou Cuihua shook her head and waved her hands repeatedly, showing contempt, "I didn't borrow it, it was my family's hard-earned money. We were cultivating land and pulling weeds in the fields under the bright sun. It was so hot that we didn't even dry our clothes. Put the money
Is it worthy of our family's hard work to lend it to them?"
Liu Pan'er raised her eyebrows, quite surprised, "Auntie, if it had been before, you would have borrowed it a long time ago."
Zhou Cuihua looked embarrassed and laughed a few times, "You also said it, that was before. Now I see clearly that people can't be too kind. They help people in need rather than help the poor. If others are really in trouble, they can help, but they have to
It depends on whether the other party is up to par. Just like the third widow, even if I lend her money, she will not accept my favor or repay the money, and she will secretly call me a fool!"
Liu Pan'er smiled, "That old lady is indeed capable of such a thing. I heard her say bad things about me more than once. I was too busy to care."
Zhou Cuihua nodded, feeling that Liu Pan'er did the right thing, "You are right to ignore them. Even if you win the argument, it is not shameful for orphans and widowers. Even if she doesn't blame you, she is messing around and saying that you bully their orphans and widowers.
, extremely irritating. Just treat it like a mangy dog, someone you can’t afford to offend but can still hide from.”
Liu Pan'er agreed, "Auntie, I understand. Should I go to the rice fields or the melon fields?"
Zhou Cuihua smiled and said, "Your uncle has already seen the rice fields and they look very good. I'm going to the melon fields now. My two sons are looking at the melons. I'll give them some food."
"Auntie, let's go first. I'll go take a look at the rice fields." Liu Pan'er didn't have a man in her family, so she had to do everything by herself, grabbing the paddy and dry fields.
Although her sister-in-law can also help, she is currently busy sewing clothes for the family, so Liu Paner is responsible for it alone.
Liu Pan'er came to the edge of her paddy field, opened the water inlet, and put a little water in. Occasionally, she could see small fish swimming upstream playfully.
These small fish have grown up a lot, most of them are half the size of a hand. After a few months, they will grow even bigger.
By then there will be a lot of fish at home, fried and stewed, it will be delicious.
Wearing a bamboo hat and pulling weeds, Liu Pan'er came to the field and saw Li Dashan there, staring at her rice fields.
Li Dashan saw Liu Pan'er giving a thumbs up, "Yuan Qing's family, your rice grows well. They grow the same rice seeds, why do you grow well? It's just because the fertilizer you use is the same as the ones you use.
Do we use different ones?”
Liu Pan'er nodded, "Uncle Dashan, it is indeed because of the fertilizer. Because except for the fertilizer that is different from the one you use, everything else is the same. As long as nothing unexpected happens, my family's rice production is definitely better than other people's rice production.
high."
Li Dashan nodded, "I can see it. Although it hasn't headed yet, your rice grows well and the poles are stronger than other rice plants. Because I can see it, I often come here to visit.
When harvesting, carefully weigh your rice yield and leave some good rice seeds for my family in the future. Next time your family fertilizes, don’t forget to ask Dabao to call me and I’ll go take a look.”
Liu Pan'er nodded, "Uncle Dashan, I remember, I will definitely call you when the time comes."
Fertilizers that have undergone special fermentation treatment have better fertility.
Liu Pan'er also knew about a kind of soil fertilizer, which was also a method of retting, but it needed to add some things, which were not available for the time being.
I'll go to the county town later to see if it's available. If the price is right, I'll improve the retting method at that time.
After pulling grass all morning, it was extremely hot at noon, so Liu Paner came back early to rest.
Mrs. Liu had already cut everyone's clothes all morning, and then just sewed the cloth together.
Li Xiaobao's clothes are the best, a small jacket with exposed arms and a pair of shorts that just reach the knees.
Mrs. Liu directly made two outfits for Li Xiaobao, which didn't use much fabric in total.
Girls' clothes are relatively complicated. Liu makes them herself, and also teaches her daughter and niece how to make clothes.
Although it is slow, after the children learn it, they will be able to make their own clothes, and the adults will become more relaxed.
After Liu Pan'er finished her meal, she found a needle and thread, selected some nice-colored satin rags, and made a few simple bows.
There is no clip, just sew it on the edge of the fabric strip.
The pink satin is very bright in color and looks great when made into a bow.
Liu Pan'er took a comb and combed Li Nan's hair into two buns, and then tied bows on the buns, one on each side, which looked pretty and cute.
Li Rong looked at her sister with envy, she also wanted a hairdo like this.
Liu Pan'er waved her hand, "A Rong, A Li, A Fang, you all come here, I will tie your hair."
Unlike Li Nan, who has thin hair, these three older girls have more hair.
Although it is a bit withered due to malnutrition, life has settled down now and the food is gradually getting better.
Liu Pan'er believes that children's hair will become darker and better soon.
There is no little girl who doesn't like to be pretty. The three little girls ran to Liu Pan'er and waited.
Liu Pan'er moved quickly and tied two buns on their heads and tied them with bows.
Ms. Liu was very happy to see her daughter and took a closer look, "Third brother and sister, I think the hair flower you made is very simple, but it looks pretty when tied on your head! It looks better than those flowers!"
Liu Pan'er smiled and started making hair ties without stopping, "If you want to make a beautiful headband, you need tools and materials. We only have these rags on hand, and the materials are simple. The only tools we have are scissors and needlework, and we can't make complicated ones."
.I used this blue satin to make a headband for my sister-in-law, and I will tie it up later."
