There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Zhou Xiao was watching him straight up and smiling at everyone before rushing into the back room without paying attention, still sitting there listening to Cheng Lao talking about biographies, listening to their small talk.

At this time, if he knew that his girl was busy making his jacket, he would have jumped up for fear that the baby girl would hurt her hand and eye.

Zhou Jiao saw him come in hurriedly, holding a pack of fur, her eyes lit up. As her son fell asleep, she slowed down and walked to Zhang Guoqing's side, "You have found Mink, you are amazing. Just put it on the table and watch it. Look."

"I found a master tailor, and they can't keep up with tomorrow. I have no choice but to bring it back for you to see. Can you do your needlework before confinement? No, I will bring the fabric and go back to the village to find my second wife."

Zhou Jiao opened it and looked at the contents, picked up a few pieces of mink, and compared it, "It's okay, I made the clothes for the little girl at home a few days ago. As long as it's not embroidery, just one or two things don't get in the way. If you look at it, I will understand it. I dislike what others have done. This color needs to be spliced ​​well to show its quality."

After that, I walked 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 fine soon. You put all these things in the cabinet first. Wait for the evening to clean up. ."

Zhang Guoqing hid the good things, sat next to her, watching her quickly thread the needles, cut two pieces of cloth with scissors, and put away the rest of the fabric, just like that with both hands flying, and soon made two pieces of army. Green jacket model.He looked at his watch in disbelief, and it did not exceed fifteen minutes before and after.

Then watched her put the mink fur on her hands and began to move around on the table a few times. He understood that this was intended to be a gradient.

Zhou Jiao quickly butt the seams with a needle and thread, grabbed the green jacket and placed it on the table. After spreading it out, put on the sewn fur, and started flying needles to thread. After a while, it was sewn and she shook her hands. Begin to sew the fur beyond the cloth into the clothes.After waiting for half an hour, the two jackets were exquisitely hand-made, and the lines were as straight as machine stitched.

Zhang Guoqing sighed, "I have heard you say that your female workers are very good, this is very good, this is completely at the master level. It doesn't take an hour to make two clothes before and after. You take a break first, I will go to the closet to find a few The buttons are nailed to you."

Zhou Jiao smiled and watched him busy unbuttoning buttons. Is this a master?She intends to use the red silk and satin in the space to make clothes for her son on the full moon. When that happens, she will simply embroider tigers and put on gold locks. She will be beaming, and she will wear it in Beijing at the end of the year.

Seeing the pure white mink fur in the remaining fur, Zhou Jiao gestured the length with her hands, and the two pieces could be spliced ​​together to make a scarf for her mother, which looked very temperamental.I found out the light-colored cloth in the space, cut a long one, and started to do it. After Zhang Guoqing finally held a few buttons, he found that Zhou Jiao was almost finished.

Zhang Guoqing watched her do it well, and then took a closer look and found that the splicing parts had been processed, and there was no way to see that they were spliced ​​together.It's exactly the same as if you bought it, "This white one must look good with you. Later, I will find a sable bib for you. If you are lucky and say you are not sure, I can make a short coat for you. It must look good."

Zhou Jiao nodded happily, "Okay, I'll wait for your fur to wear it warm. It's a pity that I don't know how to make shoes. Otherwise, I will make furry boots for you. They are light and warm, not as heavy as military boots. Last time I tried military boots, I was really afraid that I didn't have the strength to lift my foot to walk."

Zhang Guoqing listened and took a look at her small body.He laughed so much that he couldn't get up on the table, and worried about waking up his son, so that the table trembled.This gave him a reminder to find a shoemaker during this time and make a few pairs of lightweight boots.

Zhou Jiao looked at him and laughed, and then laughed in a low voice, "It's no surprise, don't you think that military boots weigh 20 kilograms? And the military coat is very warm, but I am used to wearing the down jacket and feel so heavy. You Just imagine, when I put on my military cap, military boots, and military coat, can I still move?"

Zhang Guoqing was too happy to think about it.

Old Cheng asked curiously: "Little Wu, tell us all about what pleasures you have encountered that can make you laugh like this?"

Zhang Guoqing hurriedly walked to the living room, "It's nothing, but it's funny to think of it. Just now Jiaojiao said that she tried on military boots. It was really heavy, and she was afraid that she could not lift her foot to walk. I think her small body is choking. As a result, this stupid girl Let me think about it. She puts on a military cap, a military coat, and military boots. Can she move? Ouch, the more I think about it, the more funny."

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at the big guy and laughed, but he didn't laugh, and was worried, "Then have you figured out a way? This child has to be repaired, the body is too weak."

Zhang Guoqing nodded, "Think about it, find a shoemaker to make a few pairs of boots. After the hat is knitted with wool, it is very warm with fur. The military coat is okay to wear it when you go out."

"Well, after the confinement, you supervise her to run and exercise. I think those recruits couldn't run at first, but they were fine later. Dad went back to see if there were any light warm clothes. There are some in Xinjiang. Sheepskin boots and sheepskin gloves, you can make do with them first, and when I go back to find out who is from Xinjiang, give the money and let people bring them back."

Zhang Guoqing shook his head straight, "It's really not necessary. I will find local people to make these. The speed is also fast. You are troublesome to find people and owe favors. There is no shortage of fur here, and you can choose what she likes if you find someone to do it."

Lin Lishan frowned, thinking for a long time, and finally found out that there was a way, "Leave it to me. I can find someone to send it directly. I didn't expect this without Jiaojiao. I also felt heavy when I put it on. "

"Mom, if you go in and see what Jiaojiao did, you know you don't need to find someone. She is very skillful."

Lin Lishan, Zhang Mu, and Mrs. Cheng went into the bedroom and saw Zhou Jiao blushing ashamed, and smiled embarrassingly at them, probably because they heard outside sounds.

As soon as Mrs. Cheng came in, she saw two jackets placed on the table. From the look of the style, it was estimated that the child had just prepared her dad. There were cloth heads on them. The needlework was really on the table.

"You are still in confinement, and you will wait for the time to do needlework in the future. Don't do it next time. Well, this craftsmanship is really good. It's a mink. Keep warm." Old lady Cheng nodded satisfied while feeling inside.

Zhou Jiao nodded hurriedly, "I know, I don't do anything that is complicated and tiring. It's simple, just a few stitches, and I just brought it back to my dad to wear in it."

Mrs. Cheng smiled and touched the button of the cloth, and nodded secretly, she was really clever.This kid is careful in everything, "Your dad didn’t care for you in vain. Good boy, you deserve your dad’s love. It’s good if you give birth to a girl, but your son is gone. Your dad can’t close his mouth even if he wears it. Except for your dad, Who else are you going to give to?"

When Zhou Jiao saw Mrs. Cheng's eyes on Zhang's mother's vote, she suddenly realized, "I thought that my parents and my in-laws had prepared it. I didn't have enough materials, and I was still in confinement. I was afraid that their adults would blame me. Take good care of yourself. Zheng and Xiaowu plan to collect fur during this time, and just in the confinement period, they will be ready to wear them for the winter."

With a smile in her eyes, Mrs. Cheng immediately said: "That's the right thing to think. You have to be confinement. You will have the chance to be filial to them in the future."

Mother Zhang hurriedly waved her hand, "Don't prepare for us, your parents always stay out of work and need it. We don't need these in winter. Don't toss about these. You can wait for the confinement, it's fine. Knit sweaters and trousers for your dad. Your mother goes to work every day. There must be no time. You can needle and thread, so you can do nothing."

Zhou Jiao smiled and complained: "Mother, you forgot again. You should say that I will wait for you to bring the clothes over and continue happily. Be careful, if you say that, I will take it seriously in the future, but I don't remember you anymore. "

Mother Zhang laughed and said happily, "Okay, listen to you. I'll be doing it in the beginning of spring. You will be busy with your dad first. Jiaojiao, first let Xiaowu take me to your elder sister's house, and you accompany your aunt and grandmother. Let's talk. Mother will come back when she goes."

Zhou Jiao quickly got up, watched her go, relieved, and made a face at her mother.He took out the bib from the closet and handed it to her, "Mom, for you, do you like it? You can't make a jacket for you if it's out of stock, don't be angry, think I'm not kissing you.

I'm afraid that my dad will have a bad time outside these years. I'm afraid that he will be frozen. I will hold him tight first and put him on a chest warmer. Otherwise, they won't be frozen out if they don't wear a coat to do exercises in the winter.Dad's sweaters and trousers, don't knit, I am fast, and I will send it to you when I finish knitting.You remember to see if my dad has a bad stomach, and I must remind him to pay attention to his body. I heard that scrambled eggs with badger oil can treat stomach upsets. I prepared it.

Don't keep the ginseng, you two, eat the stewed chicken.When I look back, I see that I still want to buy two, and my aunt will make up for it. The time is too rushed this time. You will leave tomorrow. I didn't even prepare."

Lin Lishan touched her scarf reluctantly, and listened to her endless mouth, complaining: "I see, housekeeper. I must take good care of your dad. Do you have to worry about it at a young age?"

Mrs. Cheng nodded approvingly, "You are still young, don't prepare anything. My aunt is not an outsider, and there is no shortage of those things at home. Sending them is very troublesome. I will ask him to check your father's body, and there are ginseng at home. You will also make up for him. If you have something to eat for yourself, please tell your aunt about what you are missing. Don’t remember us. The aunt has private money and a lot of salary every month. It is very convenient to buy things in our compound. What do you want to buy? Just buy anything. If you are missing, don’t find someone to owe favors, your aunt will send it to you. Don’t buy baby milk powder."

"Oh, don't buy milk powder, you can't finish eating it. My mother brought it here last time, and Xiao Wu bought it back. 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 a cabinet made of fabrics is full. Aunty, my mother buys everything for me in one car and one car. My family is very rich and there is really nothing missing. You and my mother don’t want to do it again. Send it here, and I will ask you when it's gone."

Lin Lishan was overjoyed when she heard that, she gave her a fierce look, "That's a silly girl, I don't know, I really think you can't stack things. Only those two or three pieces of fabric, there are not many underwears, and they are still stuffed. 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 it.

You look at yourself so thin that it blows away with a gust of wind. You haven't been able to recuperate this month, and your face is still yellow and thin.Still worried about your dad, take care of yourself first.If you can stay in the county seat, don't go back stupidly. You don't want to cook here. You can eat directly at the fat master's place, which doesn't cost much.

Don’t stop the fire in the kitchen stove, just keep stewing.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 weren't for worrying about your mother-in-law and their opinions, your dad would have to ask someone to take care of you.Take care of yourself this time, close the door, and ignore everything.After the full moon is over, you come over immediately. I told Xiao Wu, and he agreed.Remember?"

Zhou Jiao smiled fondly at her, "Mom, don't get upset as you talk. Your girl is smart, and when you look back, you will definitely become a fat man."

Lin Lishan sighed and said helplessly: "You are smart, but your temperament is easy to lose. Always think about others, and have a soft heart. You must always remember that you are only 17 years old, you can act like a baby, you can play tricks, you don't need to be so sensible. Do whatever you want, why do you wrong yourself for others."

Zhou Jiao smiled and smirked at the old lady Cheng, "Mom, fortunately, it's my aunt and grandma. Others must be frightened to hear it. Don't worry, I won't suffer. I really suffer. I write to You, you help me find my place."
