The Pretty Military Wife
Chapter 88 About Sweaters
After three days of work, the kang and stove in Liang Xinyue's house were completed.
But we still need to buy a large mat to lay on top. Liang Xinyue measured it and decided that one mat might not be enough, and she would need two.
When the time comes, use cloth to wrap the edges and corners, and also wrap the joints with cloth.
When we were at Tian Mingying's house, it was time to go to the county town again. Xiao Wei was driving again.
Liang Xinyue was going to the city, so she handed the two children over to Sister Fu.
Sister Fu also wanted to buy something, so she asked Liang Xinyue to help her buy it.
She also wanted to buy some wool. The sweater Liang Xinyue knitted for Zhou Guoliang was shown off by Zhou Guoliang in the regiment headquarters.
It is said that someone in the regiment headquarters deliberately said:
"Oh, it's still a bit hot after running today."
Then, he took off his military jacket and walked back and forth in the regiment office, tugging at his jacket with his hands, and looking at other people's reactions from time to time.
It looks like a big peacock is about to spread its tail. It really shows off its treasure.
Everyone knows what he is doing, but someone still needs to cooperate with him in acting.
So Gu Sanding asked after repeated reminders and pressure from his eyes:
"Hey, the captain has a new sweater. It's so beautiful. Where did you buy it?"
Zhou Guoliang was satisfied and wanted to cooperate with his brothers.
He immediately smiled and said:
"Where did you buy it? You can't buy it anywhere. This was knitted for me by our Xinyue. How is it? Doesn't it look good? She knows my size even when I'm not at home. Look, it's just the right size, and I don't mind exercising there. The color is just right, too. Wow, I can't find any fault with it."
So, this handful of dog food fed everyone in the office.
It is said that that night, Political Commissar Xu called his wife who was in Beijing:
On the phone, Zhou Guoliang was severely criticized, saying that he was showing off. This was totally showing off.
Li Jie, who was far away in Beijing, looked as if she understood, but she listened to Lao Xu continue:
"But, I understand. That guy just got married, and he's still in high spirits. Back then, weren't we also... Hahaha, by the way, Lao Li, I remember I forgot to bring the wool vest you bought for me a few years ago? Why don't you send it to me? I'm really a little cold here."
Li Jie gave her son a helpless smile while he sat beside her and listened.
"Look, look, this is your dad!"
Li Jie turned around and said:
"Lao Xu, don't worry, you will get a new sweater too. I've just started knitting, if you don't believe me, just ask my son. I bought you your favorite color. Xiao Huang in our unit is very good at knitting sweaters, and he just taught me a new style. I'll send it to you later. This is a secret, so you can't tell Lao Zhou and the others first. Let them see it after they receive it."
Tsk tsk.
These words comforted Lao Xu and warmed his heart.
After hanging up the phone, he snorted at Zhou Guoliang who had just come in after checking the post:
"Your sister-in-law said she knitted a new sweater for me. Humph! You're not the only one who has a wife knitting for me!"
Deputy Battalion Commander Chen and Gu Sanding, who were following behind Zhou Guoliang: …
Gu Sanding turned around and left. As a bachelor, he shouldn't get involved in such topics.
Deputy Battalion Commander Chen stood there motionless.
But when I got home I told Fu Chunhua:
"Sister Hua, it's really cold when you're on duty at night. It would be nice if you had a sweater."
Because Fu Chunhua was older than him, he had always called her Sister Hua since childhood. After marriage, he no longer called her Sister Hua outside, but in bed, he still liked to call her Sister Hua.
As soon as Captain Zhou threw the dart, everyone started moving. A sweater!
Knitted by my wife.
Captain Zhou said it was a brand he loved his wife.
As a result, when Liang Xinyue went to the county town this time, in addition to bringing wool for Fu Chunhua, she also brought wool for Huang Ying to knit a sweater for Deputy Battalion Commander Xu, and wool for Tian Mingfang to knit for Director Wang. Yang Dapan did not let Liang Xinyue bring any, because she went to the county town with her, and she kept asking Liang Xinyue to help her choose wool.
When they stopped at the county supply and marketing cooperative to sell wool, they ended up using a large sack to carry away a sack of wool. Suddenly, more than half of the wool counter in the supply and marketing cooperative was empty.
Liang Xinyue also bought a few more colors.
Xiao Wei said:
"Sister, you didn't spend all your captain's allowance on wool, did you?"
Liang Xinyue admitted:
"Yes, I knitted a few sweaters for my family and sent them back. They haven't worn them yet. Anyway, I don't do farm work now, so I have plenty of time."
Although the winter at home is not as cold as here, you still need to wear cotton clothes. It will be even warmer with a sweater inside.
In the family, except for the eldest brother who is in good health, the two younger ones, as well as the parents and sister-in-law, are not in good health. Wearing more clothes will warm your heart.
Zhou Guoliang mentioned that his family talked about the New Year, probably just wanting him to send money back.
Liang Xinyue didn't know whether Zhou Guoliang had other money, but she would never give the money given to her to those people.
If they send money back to their parents, the Zhou family might cause trouble for the Liang family.
But it's different if I knit the clothes and send them back. It's just that I didn't buy the right plastic sheet.
But with the boss's introduction, I bought a plastic bag that was made into plastic pockets.
This plastic bag is so big that even a grown man can fit a whole one in it.
But you have to use it when you buy it. I can see a little frost on the leaves of the vegetables in the backyard these two mornings.
If it frosts again, it might get frozen.
After returning, he delivered the wool yarn he brought to each of their families, and they were very satisfied with the colors chosen by Liang Xinyue.
Then everyone said:
"I don't know how to knit very well yet. You have to teach me."
So, Zhou Guoliang was just showing off his clothes, but the boomerang ended up hitting Liang Xinyue.
From the second day after returning from the county town, Liang Xinyue came to chat with him in the morning and in the afternoon and asked him how to knit a sweater.
The most difficult part is the beginning, how to start, how to divide and arrange the flowers, and all kinds of questions.
In the end, when they returned from the army, they would first go to Captain Zhou's house to pick up their children and wives.
Liang Xinyue still found some time and asked Fu Chunhua to help her cut the plastic sheet into a long piece.
Then Liang Xinyue sharpened the ends of the branches she had cut back and stuck them into the ground in an arch shape.
Cover it with plastic sheeting.
This way the vegetables inside can get exposure to the sun and stay warm.
And the effect is very obvious.
The biggest difference is that the chives that Xiao Wei dug out from the chive field behind the regiment cafeteria were originally frozen and wilted, but now they are growing very well and are even sprouting new buds.
There is one shed for each ridge. It is very convenient. If you want to eat a dish, you just need to open half of the shed.
Liang Xinyue's method of growing vegetables inspired the others who came to learn knitting sweaters. They followed her example and learned how to grow vegetables. This way, they would have vegetables to eat in winter.
Liang Xinyue also specially spread a shed full of carrots and white radishes.
She also tidied up the vegetables in Xiao Shun's backyard and built two sheds there.
