Early the next morning, Ruan Yu and Sister Guiqin went out on their sled.

Xie Beichen originally wanted to go along, but thinking about the unfinished finishing work in the yard and the lack of space on the sled, he had no choice but to stay.

Sister Guiqin grew up in Hongqi County, so she is naturally very skilled in using means of transportation such as sleds.

The sled sped steadily along the road between villages and soon entered the county town.

Just as Sister Guiqin said before, although the supply and marketing cooperative also had materials for making autumn clothes, they were so popular that they were sold out more than a week ago.

After all, the twelfth lunar month is coming soon.

Even beggars have to celebrate the New Year! Not to mention that everyone's family situation has changed a lot compared to before, and buying New Year's goods has become a basic operation for every household.

No matter how much, always be prepared.

So, not to mention cloth, even snacks, candies and melon seeds had long been snatched away from the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Ruan Yu thanked the salesperson, picked out some seasonings according to her own needs, put them on the sled, and headed for the next stop with Sister Guiqin.

What Sister Guiqin had said to Ruan Yu before, that she had a good relationship with the warehouse manager of the textile factory, was not an exaggeration.

Sister Guiqin took her on a sled and made many twists and turns in the county town, and finally stopped at the gate of a small courtyard not far from the gate of the Hongqi Textile Factory in the northern suburbs.

She asked Ruan Yu to sit in the car and wait for a while, and she quickly got off the sled and went over to knock on the gate.

I don’t know what the person inside the courtyard said to her, but I saw Sister Guiqin turned around, waved at Ruan Yu with a happy face, and motioned her to come over.

"Ayu, don't just stand there like an idiot. Call someone."

Sister Guiqin took Ruan Yu by the hand and pointed at the slightly plump woman standing in the yard and introduced her to her: "This is my good sister. You can just call her Sister Ruilan."

"Sister-in-law Ruilan." Ruan Yu cooperated very well and greeted Sister-in-law Ruilan in front of her obediently.

"This is my sister-in-law from my husband's family. She's getting married soon!

I wanted to make a set of autumn clothes for her boyfriend to wear inside. But when I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask, I found that the material was in short supply and was sold out as soon as the market opened.

I have no other choice, so I came to you for help. See if you can give me some material to help me out."

Sister Guiqin also spoke quickly and explained the purpose of this trip clearly to Sister Ruilan in just a few words.

"Oh, your sister-in-law is so pretty! You hid it very well. If I had known earlier, I would have married into your family!"

Sister Ruilan looked at Ruan Yu and liked her more and more. She couldn't help but turn around and tease Sister Guiqin, "Why, are you still worried that my brother is mistreating your sister-in-law?"

"How can that be possible?

My sister-in-law has already been introduced to a boyfriend! He is also nearby, in a nearby military unit."

Sister Guiqin greeted Sister Ruilan with a smile and cleared up the matter in just two sentences.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else for now. When my sister-in-law holds the wedding banquet, we can go over and talk about whatever we want!

Now just tell me whether you can help me or not!"

"You, you are always so impatient!"

Sister Ruilan shook her head helplessly, raised her hand and pretended to pat Sister Guiqin's arm, then looked at Ruan Yu and said to her with a smile: "You really came at the right time today.

Our factory imported a batch of new machines from big brother SL this autumn. However, we didn't know how to operate them during the first dyeing process, and a batch of pure-colored materials was directly ruined.

This is definitely not pretty enough to wear outside, but as you said, it is perfect to use it as autumn clothes.

Come in and sit for a while, I'll get it and show it to you."

Sister Ruiyun said as she pulled Sister Guiqin and Ruan Yu towards home: "Anyway, there is definitely no problem with the quality of this material, it's just that the color is not very even.

Anyway, autumn clothes are worn inside, so it doesn’t make much sense for them to look good. As long as they are warm and comfortable, that’s enough!

If you don't like it, you'll have to wait for the supply and marketing cooperative to restock it.

But if you want to wait for the goods at the supply and marketing cooperative, you probably won’t be able to wear new clothes this year. You can wait until next year!"

As Sister Ruiyun spoke, she quickly poured water for Sister Ruanyu and Sister Guiqin, then went to the cupboard nearby and grabbed a handful of peanuts, put them on the table and asked them to sit down first. Then she hurriedly left the room and went to the warehouse to get some cloth.

After a while, Sister Ruiyun came in from outside the door, holding a piece of indigo and a piece of dark gray material as a curtain.

"Come on, come on, take a look, this is all I have left!

In the past two days, some acquaintances have come to take some away from time to time. Anyway, they are either for their sons or grandsons. In short, if you want it, take it as soon as possible!"

Ruan Yu reached out and touched the quality of the cloth. It was indeed very good ribbed cotton. Apart from the obvious flaws in the color, there were no other major problems.

"Then I'll take them all." Ruan Yu thought about it and decided that after taking the two pieces of fabric back, in addition to making underwear for herself and Xie Beichen, she should also make a set for Aunt Hongying and the old branch secretary.

Whether before or now, no matter from what angle, the old branch secretary's care for her is visible.

Besides, now she has to call people godfather and godmother, so it is only natural for her to show some filial respect during the New Year.

"If you have cloth coupons, it's one dollar for three feet, with one foot of cloth coupons; if you don't have cloth, it's one dollar for two feet."

Seeing Ruan Yu being so straightforward, Sister Ruiyun on the opposite side was also straightforward: "Sister-in-law won't take advantage of you, just give me an integer and I'll give you the decimals!"

Ruan Yu finally chose not to give the cloth coupons, so she spent nearly twenty yuan to buy all the remaining materials from Sister Ruiyun.

Sister Ruiyun originally wanted to keep Sister Guiqin and Ruan Yu at home for dinner, but the two were in a hurry to return to the village, so they ended up not disturbing her too much.

“You are Guiqin’s sister-in-law, which means you are my sister.

Today I have introduced myself to you. If you need any defective materials in the future, just come to me!

It's fine for this season now, but when spring comes next year, if you want those bright colors that you girls like, you can come to me, your sister-in-law, for sure!"

On the way to see Ruan Yu and the others off, Sister Ruiyun did not forget to hold Ruan Yu's hand and gave her instructions with a smile.

Of course, Ruan Yu would not be so foolish as to refuse such an opportunity that was offered to her door. She smiled and thanked him while accepting it obediently.
