Chapter 39 Designing Clothes for My Son
Shen Jiao entered the room carrying the cloth, and took two different pieces of cloth to find Sun Xuexiang.
She was quite capable and agreed to bring cloth for Sun Xuexiang. She took two pieces of cloth of different styles and gave them to her to choose from.
Sun Xuexiang would use the remaining piece to make clothes for her man. Anyway, she liked both pieces of cloth.
As for the cloth that I bought with Ji Xiaoxi, we can cut the cloth together according to the style of the clothes to avoid waste.
"Come, come, bring in all your gold, silver and treasures. I'll share the food with you."
"Lu Lu, go get the dishes and chopsticks."
"Okay! Thank you, auntie~"
There were not many snacks, so Ji Xiaoxi planned to share them with the children at home, and the adults agreed.
No adult will take the initiative to snatch food from children.
Sun Xuexiang didn't say much when she saw it. She thought it would be a waste not to take advantage of this free opportunity.
Ji Xiaoxi did not favor anyone, and all three children in his family got one piece.
From this perspective, there is no loss, but rather a profit.
The eldest and second daughter held their small bowls and glanced at Sun Xuexiang secretly. After they found that their mother didn't say anything, they ate the mung bean cakes in their bowls with peace of mind.
Xiaobao stuffed the green bean paste into his mouth with a spoon, and his little face was covered with it.
The older girl stretched out her little hand to help her younger brother wipe it.
The army on land has the least to worry about when it comes to food, as it eats quickly and cleanly.
Ji Xiaoxi and her son shared a bowl. The small piece of mung bean paste was cut into six pieces. Each person had a small piece in his bowl and it was finished in just a few bites.
But Lu Qian'an was small, so he could eat it for a while with a spoon. Ji Xiaoxi took a small bite and found it tasted really good.
It has the pure flavor of mung beans, without the cloying sweetness.
"Mom, have another bite." Lu Qian'an pushed the spoon with his little hand.
"Okay." Ji Xiaoxi took another small bite.
Lu Qianan watched her eat and asked with a grin, "Is it delicious?"
Ji Xiaoxi: "It's delicious, An An, have a bite."
Lu Qian: "Okay."
Ji Xiaoxi didn’t share the rice cake, as the portion was even smaller, probably just one bite per person.
She was planning to give it to her son as a snack. This kind of rice cake is soft and just right for her son.
The same thing happened with Shen Jiao's box of cookies. She put away the new box and gave the opened box to the children to share. The adults could also have a small piece.
Life is so simple in this era. If you can taste something sweet, your mood will be good for the whole day.
the next day.
Ji Xiaoxi officially started to learn how to make clothes from Shen Jiao.
Although she knew nothing about sewing, she had a modern vision and had countless styles of children's clothes in her head.
Ji Xiaoxi: "Sister-in-law, I'll draw a few styles, can you help me make the patterns?"
Shen Jiao: "For children or adults?"
Ji Xiaoxi: "We didn't buy much fabric, so make a few more sets for An An. I only need to make one set."
Shen Jiao: "Okay, you draw the pattern first, and I'll see if it's easy to do."
Ji Xiaoxi held the pen and was thinking about it, while Shen Jiao was watching her paint.
She used to use the same paper pattern to make clothes, so the styles she made were basically the same.
But looking at the clothes drawn by Ji Xiaoxi, she felt that it was quite nice. It was actually a fake two-piece suit, with a sweater on the outside and a shirt on the inside, and it also had a decoration similar to a tie. It was a very interesting design.
"What are you doing? I'm going to the black market later. Do you need anything to take with you?" Lu Jingyi came over.
"You picked mountain products again? How come I didn't know about that?" Shen Jiao asked, leaning sideways.
"When you went out yesterday, I went to the back mountain and picked some mushrooms, bamboo shoots and the like. I wanted to take them to the black market to exchange for something." Lu Jingyi said.
Ji Xiaoxi looked up at Lu Jingyi and said, "Second brother, can you help me go to the black market to see if there are any peanuts for sale? The kind that are raw, don't need to be fried."
Lu Jingyi: "Okay, if there is, how much do you want to buy?"
Ji Xiaoxi: "If it's less than 2 yuan, take 20 kilograms first, and I'll advance you 5 yuan."
Lu Jingyi: "Okay."
After Lu Jingyi left, the two continued to draw the design.
Whenever Shen Jiao didn't understand something, she would ask Ji Xiaoxi, and Ji Xiaoxi would mark it and explain it.
Finally, the design drafts of three pieces of children's clothing were completed.
Shen Jiao was full of confidence, "Xiaoxi, I have a feeling these clothes will look great."
Ji Xiaoxi encouraged her: "Come on, sister-in-law!"
Shen Jiao: "Okay!"
Sun Xuexiang was watching from the side. She had already lent her sewing machine to Shen Jiao. Seeing how confident the two of them were, she took the design draft and looked at it with some interest. Then she curled her lips and said, "These styles won't last long. What's the point of just looking good if they're not durable."
Shen Jiao took the design and said, "Sister-in-law, children's clothes don't last long anyway. They change every day and grow taller in the blink of an eye."
Ji Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows and said, "Sister-in-law, this is designed for my son. If you want to make it for your son, you can draw the style yourself."
Sun Xuexiang was blocked by both of them and wanted to leave in anger. But then she thought, the sewing machine was hers, so why should she leave? She had to stay here and see what they could do.
The two of them ignored Sun Xuexiang. If she wanted to stay where she was, she could stay there. They could just ignore her.
The clothes designed by Ji Xiaoxi were matched with Lu Qian'an's existing clothes.
Most of An An's clothes are dark colors such as gray-blue and black. They don't look dirty, but they don't look good either. Moreover, all of her clothes are basically the same style.
Ji Xiaoxi wanted her son to wear something a little cuter, but changing all his clothes was obviously unrealistic, so she could only make full use of the clothes he already had to match them together.
He took off the sleeves of some of his sweaters that were too small and made them into two pieces, and then added some cute designs, thus making use of waste and saving fabric.
Ji Xiaoxi can embroider some small embroidery works. She had learned it for a period of time by watching short videos, and now she can put it to use.
The first set is a black fake two-piece suit on the upper body, with a black vest sweater and a black and white striped shirt, and the lower body is a pair of pants made of black and white stripes.
The second set is a pair of blue plaid overalls with a light-colored floral shirt underneath, and some cartoon embroidery on the overalls.
For the third set, use the red plaid fabric to make a retro jacket.
She herself plans to make a dress with light-colored floral patterns.
With careful budgeting, she managed to use up just enough of the cloth she bought.
The cloth coupons she had saved were also used up. She would have to find an opportunity to exchange them for some next time, or see if there was a chance to get some defective cloth that was not planned. However, these had usually been bought up by those who had connections in the supply and marketing cooperative, so it would not be their turn.
How sad!
In this planned economy era, it is inconvenient to buy anything. Good things require tickets, and these tickets are difficult to get.
