Chapter 38 Eight Zero Best Sister-in-law (38)

"Yinyin, do you like mutton?" Mrs. Xu asked her, "There are a lot of sheep here, and the price is cheaper than pork. It's just that your brother thinks the smell of mutton is strong. I'm worried that you won't be used to it, so I didn't buy it first. You If you like it, go to the market tomorrow morning to pick up a better piece of lamb leg, and I will cook potatoes for you."

   "I like it." Xu Yin nodded fiercely, and she planned to buy more. The authentic free-range lake mutton would not be available at a high price in future generations.

   "Then let's go to the morning market together tomorrow. If there is anything else you want to eat, my sister-in-law will make it for you. Anyway, the summer vacation is very long, so stay here for a few more days."

Xu Yin said with a smile: "I promised my mother before I came here, and I have to go back before I grab it. Didn't our family raise rice flower fish? When the rice field drains water, this fish can be sold. Mom said that Miss Hua was the first time on the sedan chair. I'm not in her mind and dad has no idea."

   "At that time, your brother will have to ask for leave and let him go back with you. Father also planted three acres of watermelons this year. I don't know how the harvest will be."

   "Don't worry, sister, the melon seedlings are growing very well. Our father is an experienced melon grower, and he cares more about melons than me, a girl. Can the melons grow poorly?"

  The sister-in-law and sister-in-law chatted about each other's current situation.

  Xu Yin found out that the elder sister-in-law had already made a lot of clothes for people within two months after she moved to the family home.

"Thanks to you, little sister, who designed this breastfeeding clothes for me. The day I first moved in, my neighbor came to visit and saw that I could feed without lifting my clothes. I thought this dress was good. There were also family members upstairs who were confinement. I asked me to make two pieces, and then people came to ask me to make clothes one after another..."

Xu Yin thinks this is good: "Dou Dou and Ding Ding are still young, and they can't live without people at home. It's good for sister-in-law to make clothes at home and earn some wages. When you become famous in the future, more people will come to you to do it. .”

Aunt Xu hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have a matter, I am a little undecided. There is an empty tailor shop in the internal supply and marketing department of the family courtyard, and the original tenant has gone to another place to join the army. Last week, the director Come and ask me if I have any intention of renting out the tailor shop. She counted, and I am the only one in our area who can make clothes. If I don’t rent it, I will switch to another shop.”

  Xu Yin thinks this is an opportunity. Although it is just a family home, there are quite a few people. Existing families usually start with two children. There are four seasons in a year, and at least two sets of clothes are changed every season, right?

  Even if the parents are reluctant to make new clothes, what about the children? How many times do you have to wear it every year, and if you can't go to school, you still have to wear a patch?

  The income of the other half of these family members is not low, who is willing to let the children wear patched and patched old clothes?

   What's more, it is a unique existence, with unlimited potential and considerable profits!

  Xu Yin encouraged Mrs. Xu to rent it.

   "Are you worried about the high rent?"

  Sister-in-law Xu shook her head: "The rent is okay, but I just don't know what to do. I discussed this matter with your brother, and he didn't understand, so let me make up my own mind. But I have no idea."

  Xu Yin simply made up an idea for her: "Rent! You must rent it! The God of Wealth presents you with an opportunity. If you don't rent it, you'd be a fool."

  Sister-in-law Xu: "..."

  But with sister-in-law's words, Mrs. Xu has a bottom line in her heart.

  It's a pity that my sister-in-law is going to go to college in other places, otherwise, it would be great for the sister-in-law and sister-in-law to open this shop together.

   "Okay! I will rent it tomorrow and open a shop to make clothes."

   "Not only to make clothes, but also to buy some high-selling fabrics and sell them in the store." Xu Yin said.

   After thinking about it, he suggested:

"Summer is coming soon. I will draw some new summer clothes for my sister-in-law later. When my sister-in-law is free, I will make some and hang them in the store. Firstly, it will enrich the facade, and secondly, it will attract people to come in and see it. If there are more people watching, the popularity will increase. Maybe I didn't intend to make clothes at first, but I saw these ready-made clothes and thought they were beautiful, so I came to you to make them, isn't that how the business grows little by little."

   Mrs. Xu felt more at ease when she heard the words, and she wished she could settle the shop now.

  The next day, when she came back from the morning market, she couldn't wait to find the director of the Women's Federation to rent a shop. Knowing that her sister-in-law was going to go shopping in the city, she insisted on giving her fifty yuan before she left.

  Xu Yin didn't want to accept it at first, but then she thought about her sister-in-law dragging the two children, and she probably didn't have time to go to the city. If she saw something useful, she could bring it back to her.

  She took the bus in front of the family courtyard and went to the city center. She originally wanted to explore the street market, but she overheard a few passengers chatting, saying that a large textile wholesale market opened in the north of the city, and her heart moved.

   I asked them how to get to the wholesale market, and finally found out the address and the bus that was switched.

  It said it was the north of the city, but it was actually a suburb, and the bumpy gravel road made her almost doubt her life.

  However, seeing the appearance of the textile wholesale market, I felt that it was not in vain.

   This is much bigger and more organized than the wholesale market at the entrance of the alley. It is so spacious that a truck can run in it.

  She followed the flow of people who also came here to wholesale cloth materials, all the way to the defective cloth booth of the cloth factory, and quickly snatched five pieces.

  Each horse is 30 meters, only 20 yuan. One hundred yuan for five pieces of cloth, plus two pieces of denim cloth that can be used to make two pairs of trousers. How cheap is it?

  The processed goods booth of the garment factory here is also crowded with people. The ready-made garments to be processed are old in style and many of them are broken, but they are cheaper.

  Xu Yin bought a few pieces for her parents without asking for money. They are cheap, and she doesn’t feel bad when she goes to work in the field and wears them dirty.

  The rest of the money, I bought Dacron, soft yarn and muslin. I picked some of all kinds of colors.

   Except for soft yarn, which is a little more expensive, everything else is cheap.

   Turn around and ask my sister-in-law to remember the address, and come here next time I buy cloth.

  The money was almost spent, so Xu Yin took the car back to the city contentedly.

   Seeing her come back with five pieces of cloth in her hands and a big bulging bag on her shoulders, the family courtyard was boiling.

  A few days ago, I heard that Commander Xu’s younger sister was coming to visit relatives. I saw that Commander Xu’s daughter-in-law began to bring all kinds of meat and vegetables home after receiving the telegram. I knew that Commander Xu’s sister was very favored at home.

   Otherwise, the sister-in-law would not hesitate to spend a month's salary hoarding meat and vegetables for her arrival?

  The family members who have made good friends with Mrs. Xu can't help but worry about her: With such a younger sister, life is not easy for the husband's family, right?

   Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xu didn't mind at all. On the contrary, she was looking forward to sister-in-law's arrival even more than Battalion Commander Xu.

  These family members don’t say anything, but in private, who doesn’t know how many mothers-in-law and sister-in-law are the most difficult to take care of, is it possible that Xu Ying’s family is an exception?

   Now I see Xu Yin carrying the cloth back to the courtyard, saying it was for my sister-in-law.

   Everyone has heard about Mrs. Xu asking the director of the Women's Federation to rent a tailor shop. It seems that these cloths are for the opening of the tailor shop.

   Instantly understood: Why is Commander Xu so warm and considerate to his sister-in-law? Who doesn't like such a sister-in-law who is willing to worry about her sister-in-law's career?
