At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

Lin Yuanxin was so embarrassed by the compliment that her cheeks flushed. She said shyly, "I've never seen this thing before. I saw it on Brother Damao's lampshade and thought it looked really pretty with its green color, so I tried to imitate him. It turns out it's called bamboo..."

"I think my embroidery is a little out of shape. Aunt Lin, you're praising me too much. I don't deserve it!"

Lin was even more surprised when he heard her say this.

She had never seen bamboo before, but she could embroider it so vividly just by following the pattern. Isn't this genius?

"Hey, Yuan Xin, don't underestimate yourself! To be honest, even if I were given this pattern and asked to copy it, I might not be able to embroider it as well as you!"

Lin Yuanxin was overwhelmed by the continuous praise. Seeing that she was talking so enthusiastically, he felt embarrassed to tell her the truth and spoil her mood.

In fact, Lin Yuanxin knew in her heart that her mediocre skills were not even worthy of her mother's attention. It was just that Aunt Lin was kind-hearted and didn't want to discourage her.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Lin Qing finally revealed his true intentions.

"So, in order not to waste your talent, I have a very difficult task for you!"

Lin Yuanxin was caught off guard, but facing Lin Qing's expectant eyes, he couldn't say "I can't, I won't do it". It would be better to listen to what Aunt Lin wanted her to do first. If he really couldn't help, it would not be too late to refuse.

"Yuanxin, look here. These are the cloths we bought from town the other day. I've already cut them into shapes. Can you help me sew them? How about we sell them to a clothing store after they're done?"

Lin Yuanxin, who was packing up his needle and thread, almost pricked his hand with the needle.

"what?!"

"No matter how much we earn, we'll split it 70% and 30% between us. I'll take 30% and you'll take 70%. How about that?"

Lin Yuanxin was completely stunned. It took him a moment to find his voice, but he screamed again uncontrollably.

"what??"

Then she realized that it was already late and she might disturb others, especially Gu Damao who was reviewing his lessons.

She carefully lifted the door curtain and was relieved when she found that no one was looking at her.

Only after she returned to the house did she realize how frightened she felt.

It wasn't that she doubted Aunt Lin's ability, but she was worried that she would disappoint Aunt Lin and delay her work.

She knew very well that Aunt Lin had no small business to her credit, and if she messed it up, kneeling down and kowtowing hundreds of times would be of no use.

After slowly sitting down, Lin Yuanxin stammered increasingly unconfidently, "Aunt Lin, it's not that I have to refuse you, but I used to only be able to do some sewing work. Making clothes is such an important thing, I, I really don't dare to try..."

Seeing her worried look, Lin Qing knew that as a girl, she must have been used to not being expected of anything in her family and was suppressed everywhere, so lack of self-confidence became the norm. In the long run, she would not dare to believe in herself even if she could do it.

So she could only do the opposite, showing a regretful expression and said: "Hey, that's a pity, you are the best needleworker I know. If you don't agree, I can only do it reluctantly and come by myself.

"Even if I were to work on my own, I certainly wouldn't be as meticulous as you. I'm afraid I'd ruin these two bolts of cloth and all the patterns I've worked so hard to cut."

Seeing that Lin Yuanxin's expression had somewhat relaxed, Lin Qing continued to intensify his pressure and said, "Alas, I had originally planned to make some extra money from selling the clothes this time and make a set of clothes for each of you. It seems that there is no chance..."

When Lin Yuanxin heard that the money was originally intended to make clothes for his brothers, he immediately stood up, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he whispered: "Then...how about I give it a try?"

Lin Qing smiled with a look of triumph: "Hey, that's right! Come, take a look."

Lin Yuanxin opened his eyes wide, with admiration in his eyes, but more of it was disbelief, and asked in disbelief:

"Aunt Lin, how did you manage to cut out the pattern for the dress in just a short while? I used to see the aunties and aunties in the village taking half a day to cut out a shoe pattern. You, you are truly, more amazing than a god!"

After flipping through it casually, Lin Yuanxin almost popped his eyes out.

"Actually, there are two sets?!"

Lin listened to her and realized that he had gone too far. He was too embarrassed to mention that she had a golden finger. He almost changed the subject:

“To be honest, I’ve been thinking about the look of this dress for a long time, just waiting to buy the fabric, so I was able to cut it out so quickly.

"There's no rush for this job. You have a lot of work to do every day, so take your time. Even if it takes you half a month, it's okay!"

Lin Yuanxin nodded seemingly obediently, but what he was thinking in his heart was that he had to go to bed late today.

Since Aunt Lin has been thinking about this design for so long, she must be looking forward to seeing the clothes turn out, otherwise she wouldn't have cut them out so quickly.

Since Aunt Lin trusts her so much, she has to show some respect!

He said that the clothes must be taken out tonight!

Even just one will do!

Lin Yuanxin took out the needle and thread again, and after asking about the position of each pattern and how to connect them together, he instantly felt like a deflated ball.

It turned out that she still overestimated herself and thought things were too simple.

She originally thought that making clothes was just sewing the front and back pieces together, and then joining the sleeves and trouser legs, just like her mother making a cotton-padded jacket for her younger brother. But after listening to Aunt Lin's explanation, she realized that making clothes is also a science.

It is still a very profound subject.

What she knew was just the tip of the iceberg.

According to the pattern Aunt Lin sent, the sewing stitches and so on all needed to be adjusted. Even if she was allowed to rest continuously, she wouldn't be able to finish it in one night, let alone three days and two nights.

So at night she waited for Brother Damao to finish reading and turn off the lights to go to bed, and then borrowed his lamp to finish her work.

But before she could walk out of the main room, she was startled by Lin Qing who pushed the door open from the next room.

For some reason, Lin Yuanxin felt a little scared, like a child who was caught doing something bad. He was about to explain with a wry smile, but Aunt Lin simply turned off the light and pushed him out of the room by the shoulder.

"Don't think I don't know what you want to do. Go back to bed! Going to bed early at night helps absorb calcium. You're so thin and small, you need to grow up quickly! Leave staying up late to the adults!"

Although Lin Yuanxin didn't understand what the words "calcium absorption" and "staying up late" meant, he still obediently went back to his room.

I wanted to secretly light the oil lamp to work, but suddenly I heard a knock on the window, and then I heard Lin Qing's voice.

"Yuan Xin, go to sleep!"

Although Lin Yuanxin had never been to school, he felt as nervous as if his teacher had grabbed his pigtails, and he quickly blew out the lights and prepared to go to bed.

In the quiet of the night, the whole family fell into sweet dreams, but no one dared to sleep in the mourning hall of Wangjia Village hundreds of miles away.
