Once she went to town and saw a girl wearing a skirt with the same pattern. She was so beautiful.
"Today my sister-in-law and I went to the clothing factory." Then Chen Lishu briefly talked about collecting rags and planning to make hair flowers.
"I'm just saying that it's not like a family doesn't have access to the same house. The third daughter-in-law is as smart as I am. She can think of all these ideas."
Chen Lishu was startled for a moment when she saw Li Xiulan's smiling face.
Shouldn't I object when I hear that she sells things for money? Or simply disagree with her firmly? When the other people heard what Li Xiulan said, especially Gu Shoufu, they felt that their wife was just trying to put money on their face.
"Third sister-in-law, this is just speculation. If you are caught, you will have to go to a study class." Gu Xingye was a little worried.
"Yeah, I think these cloths can be used to make a lot of things. How about your mother and I give you the money? These are what we bought and we share them. The family is not too short of money, so there is no need to take risks.
That risk."
Gu Shoufu discussed.
"I agree with what dad said. I think these dollars are good, just right..."
When Liu Yuemin heard Gu Shoufu's words, she immediately reached out and grabbed the cloth she was interested in. However, Chen Lishu pulled her back unceremoniously.
"Mom and Dad, there are actually many people selling things privately in this town. And as long as I'm careful, I won't be discovered." Chen Lishu saw that Gu Shoufu didn't say anything. It was probably difficult for her to do this business.
Besides, they are all a family, and she doesn't want to make them unhappy by agreeing on the surface but secretly doing it behind the scenes.
After thinking for a while, he said in a low voice: "I just thought that I am the only one in the house. In order not to drag down my parents and brothers in the future, I will try to save more money."
Although she said this to persuade Gu Shoufu and his wife, what Chen Lishu said was true. Thinking of the situation in her previous life, her voice was choked with sobs.
"You old man." When Li Xiulan saw her daughter-in-law acting like this, she immediately slapped Gu Shoufu on the back complainingly, and comforted Chen Lishu: "You go and do it for the third family. It's okay. Mom supports you. If they want to arrest them, let them do it."
Come and catch me. Mom is here, don’t be afraid.”
After hearing what she said, Chen Lishu's eyes suddenly turned red and she tried hard to blink twice to prevent tears from falling.
"Third sister-in-law, what kind of hair flower are you talking about? I like this color, can you give me one when you finish it?" Seeing that her mother agreed to Sister-in-law's hair flower, Gu Xingping happily took out her long-cherished flower.
the piece of cloth.
"No problem. I'll give you two to wear."
Gu Xingping felt a little embarrassed when she heard her say that.
"Mom and Dad, this isn't fair. Why should all this cloth be given to the three younger siblings? Why should we share it equally?" Liu Yuemin quit.
"Yes, Mom, you have to have a bowl of water to keep your balance." Gu Xingmin also objected.
"Why are you so embarrassed to say that my third daughter-in-law paid for it herself, so why should I give it to you two? How about face?"
After being scolded by Li Xiulan, the two of them made a fuss and carried their children back to their houses as if they were shameless and angry.
After a hard day, Chen Lishu and Zhang Qin were both tired, and the whole family went back to their own rooms to sleep.
The next day, after breakfast, Chen Lishu returned to the house and redivided the fifty pounds of cloth she bought.
Put the large pieces of fabric together, and the remaining ones with bright colors that can be used as head flowers. Put the rest into the bag and take it out when you have time to see what you can do.
The large pieces of fabric were enough to make two outfits together, so I thought about it and divided them into two parts, one for Zhang Qin and one for Li Xiulan.
"How embarrassing is this? I didn't even pay for it." Zhang Qin looked at the fabric in her hand and felt a little embarrassed.
Chen Lishu blinked at her: "I want to ask my sister-in-law for something. How can I ask her if I don't get something?"
When Zhang Qin heard what she said, she smiled and said, "Third brother and sister, tell me."
"I want my sister-in-law to help me make haircuts, and I'll give you three cents for finishing each one. What do you think?" He then added: "But I don't know how the business is going. If it goes well, I will increase the price for you."
Zhang Qin waved her hands repeatedly: "There is no need for a family to raise money."
Chen Lishu deliberately darkened her face: "Sister-in-law, if you don't agree to collect money, I won't dare to use you."
Zhang Qin knew that she wanted to help him, so she made a mental note and nodded after a while.
Seeing that she agreed, Chen Lishu went to her mother-in-law Li Xiulan again.
"You can keep it for yourself and make some clothes for yourself. It doesn't matter whether a bad old woman like me wears it or not."
Chen Lishu put the cloth down and said deliberately: "Mom, do you think it's a rag, so you don't want it?"
This posture really frightened Li Xiulan: "Why, why would you dislike it? I'm too late to be happy."
This is the first time someone has given her fabrics to make clothes for.
"My child is a filial piety, so keep it." Gu Shoufu said. Li Xiulan had no choice but to accept it.
After coming out of Li Xiulan's place, Chen Lishu went back to her room to start making hair flowers. Because the method was simple, she quickly made four or five. She looked at them carefully and nodded with satisfaction.
After dinner, Zhang Qin and Gu Xingping came to her room to help, and they quickly made more than twenty of them. The rubber bands they bought were also used up.
The next day, Chen Lishu got up early and went to town with the more than twenty flowers she had made.
I found two young girls and sneaked over to her. As soon as she opened her mouth, the other girl immediately became excited when she saw the hairdo in her hand.
"Comrade, how do you sell this?"
Chen Lishu smiled: "Two cents each."
Only two cents!
The two of them happily bought four of them each without saying anything. The Chinese New Year is coming soon and I just want to take one to my sister-in-law at home.
Eight were sold at once, which made Chen Lishu more confident. She was not in a hurry to sell the rest, but thought about it and went to a nearby supply and marketing cooperative.
"Comrade, I have a hair flower here, can we sell it in the store?" Chen Lishu looked around for a moment and then carefully took out the hair flower in her hand and showed it to the female shop assistant: "I sell it outside for 20 cents, leave it with you.
It’s fifteen cents here.”
The village was too far away from the town, and it took time to sell things like this. She felt that it was not cost-effective to go back and forth, so she came up with this idea.
When the female shop assistant looked at the bouquet in her hand, her eyes were a little bright like those of the two girls outside just now. However, selling on behalf of others was not a trivial matter after all, so she was still a little hesitant.
"How about I leave these two here with you and wait a while to see what happens. What do you think, comrade?"
This is a good idea.
Soon a woman in her thirties came into the store. The clerk saw the right moment and took out the bouquet. As soon as she showed up, the woman bought it. And they both bought it together.
The clerk was a little dumbfounded: "Comrade, do you still have any? I want to keep two myself."
Chen Lishu smiled: "I didn't bring so many this time. Next time, I'll bring you some more styles to choose from and give you two for free."
This is very emotional.
Seeing that she was cheerful and generous in her work, the clerk ordered fifty of them as soon as she opened her mouth.
