Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 65 No matter what you say, you are right
  Linen is cheaper, while cotton is more expensive. Basically every household in Liuligouzi Village wears clothes made of linen.

In order to choose fabrics for clothes for his wife and daughter, Lu Jiansheng looked carefully at the rolled up fabrics.

Most of the styles and colors of fabrics these days are relatively monotonous.

Finally, the two little guys chose a fabric with small floral prints, bright yellow printing and dyeing, and small daisies dotted on it.

The color chosen for Bai Ruoxi is a bit dull. After all, it is not popular in rural areas these days to be flashy, but the style is not bad.

The materials are all pure cotton, which is considered to be the best fabric in the county. Lu Jiansheng knows that if Bai Ruoxi were here, he would definitely not be willing to buy such good fabrics, but he must buy the best.

"Comrade, I want these two kinds of cloth. How much does it cost per foot?"

The salesperson came over, pointed at the pile of cloth with the long ruler in his hand, and said, "Do you want these two kinds?"

Lu Jiansheng nodded.

The salesperson said: "These two kinds of cloth are both fine cotton. They are both 30.91 feet. How many feet do you want?"

After returning home, Lu Jiansheng hurriedly walked to the water tank, scooped the water with a spoon, and drank it in big gulps.

"Okay, I'll measure it for you right now,"

Xixi screamed excitedly.

Two little dumplings were running towards him with their short legs, one on the left and one on the right.

He put down the water spoon, stretched out his hand, and gently scraped the noses of the two milk dumplings.

Lu Jiansheng bought fifteen feet in one go, spending a total of five yuan and eighty-five cents.

"Xixi wants to wear new clothes.

When she saw the water spoon in Lu Jiansheng's hand, she frowned slightly.

In the house, Bai Ruoxi was picking wild vegetables with her two children. The two little guys were helping their mother to work seriously.
  Hearing the sound and seeing the two milk dumplings, they ran outside.

Bai Ruoxi also glanced outside.

The salesperson said slowly.

"Dad, you're back."

Lu Jiansheng grinned and agreed.

Tangtang and Xixi are young, so three feet of cloth is enough for a set of clothes and trousers, while Bai Ruoxi needs about seven or eight feet of cloth.

"There is boiled water in the porcelain vat. It's so cold in this cold weather. It's not safe to drink boiled water." Bai Ruoxi said

Even though Lu Jiansheng had walked through it several times, he still felt sore in his calves.

Lu Jiansheng saw Dabao and the other puppies at the door all the way.

Walk all the way back to Liuligouzi Village.

After buying cloth, Lu Jiansheng bought needlework and cotton. Considering that the scissors Bai Ruoxi usually used at home were all gone, Lu Jiansheng bought another pair. Lu Jiansheng did not dare to buy more for the rest. After all, he was not close to home.

Tangtang's furry little head rubbed against Lu Jiansheng's arms, and her coquettish look warmed Lu Jiansheng.

"Dad, mom said Tangtang and sister are going to have new clothes to wear!"

Xixi has gotten better these days, her hair is no longer as dry and yellow as before, and her face has become rounder.

But if you want something meaty, you have to eat more.

Lu Jiansheng couldn't hold back and pinched their two little faces.

"Tangtang and Xixi want to wear new clothes?"

"Tangtang wants to wear it~"

"Xixi wants to wear it too~"

Lu Jiansheng wiped the sweat from his head. He took out the cloth wrapped in newspaper from the sack.

I bought six feet of cloth for two little guys and now it is nearly five square meters. It’s almost time to make a set of clothes for two children!

Lu Jiansheng took the cloth and walked to the two little breast dumplings.

The two little guys screamed with joy!
  They have never seen such beautiful little floral flowers!

"Does it look good?"

Lu Jiansheng was very satisfied with the performance of the two little guys. After all, he had no experience buying fabrics for a little girl.

"Dad, you look good." The two little guys danced happily.
  He said: "Let mom make new clothes for Tangtang Xixi, okay?"

Bai Ruoxi also came out of the house at this moment.

She saw the floral material in Lu Jiansheng's hand at a glance.

Bai Ruoxi came over feeling distressed.

"This material is made of pure cotton. It costs three to four cents per foot!" Lu Jiansheng glanced at Bai Ruoxi in surprise. He had to say that her eyesight was really accurate.

She felt a little worried about money, "Children grow up quickly, so it would be a waste to buy such expensive materials."

Lu Jiansheng just laughed.

After all, the remaining fabrics haven’t been taken out yet!

"As long as the children like it, the money will not be wasted."

Lu Jiansheng knew.

Although Bai Ruoxi loves money,

But she was obviously very satisfied with the fabric.

After all, who doesn’t like beautiful clothes?
  And I still wear it for my own children.

"By the way! I bought you fabric too! And some sewing scissors."

Bai Ruoxi: "..."

"I have clothes to wear, why did you buy them for me? You just bought me shoes last time."

"I also have scissors at home~"

"No need to buy it."

Bai Ruoxi said with some distress.

"Why don't you be my wife..." Before Lu Jiansheng could finish his words, Bai Ruoxi, with a red face, quickly interrupted: "Okay, no matter what you say, you are right."

Bai Ruoxi didn't say much. After all, there is no woman who doesn't like to wear new clothes, and she is looking for something to do at home. When she saw the fabric Lu Jiansheng bought, she also liked it very much, but on the surface she still wanted to beat Lu Jiansheng.

Otherwise, what would happen if he really spends money randomly? And seeing that Lu Jiansheng cares about her so much, Bai Ruoxi doesn't know when she still feels a little happy.

"But why don't you buy yourself some cloth, and I'll make you a new dress too."

Bai Ruoxi remembered something and quickly added.

"Uh~forgot."

"forget?"

"By the way Ruoxi, your clothes are ready, but you have to put them on for me to see as soon as possible."

Before Bai Ruoxi finished speaking, Lu Jiansheng interrupted her.

He looked at himself with a smile, his eyes gentle,
  "This person is looking at me like this, he won't want to do anything bad again!!"

Her cheeks suddenly burned hot.

"The child is still here! Take good care of him, I'm going to cook."

Bai Ruoxi quickly changed the topic and said softly.

Lu Jiansheng: "..."

it's dark

The family of four just started eating.

Lu Jiansheng was eating and chatting about home affairs. At this time, Bai Ruoxi asked Lu Jiansheng how much the leopard skin was sold for.

Lu Jiansheng didn’t hide it either.

Just as he was talking to Bai Ruoxi, he suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the yard.

The two stopped talking in perfect agreement.

This year.

As long as you know the exact amount of money you make, it's best not to say it.

It is inevitable that some people will be jealous.

"Who?"

Lu Jiansheng shouted.

Lu Chengcai's voice came from outside the door.

"It's me, your uncle."

This point.

Some people in the village even finished washing and went to bed.

What is Lu Chengcai doing at this hour?
  Lu Jiansheng would not be so naive as to think that Lu Chengcai would give him something good. It was probably because he tricked him into selling shoes last time.
