The Peasant Wife Has a Space

Zhao Hong made the cotton shoes and took them to Zhao Xiulan.

"Sister Xiulan, I made a pair of cotton shoes for you, and my sister-in-law doesn't have anything to give you. Thinking about the cold in winter, I will make you a pair of cotton shoes to wear. Homemade cotton shoes are better than buying them from a department store. much warmer.

It's not worth much, so don't give up. "

Zhao Xiulan saw the cotton shoes that Zhao Hong made for her. The blue cloth foundation looked pretty good.

As soon as you touch it, you know it is warm, and it is indeed much warmer than the cotton shoes sold in department stores.

The cotton shoes in the department store are basically made by the assembly line.

Zhao Hong's stitches are very well made, and such shoes are much more durable than those bought in department stores.

Although it is not worth much, Zhao Xiulan was very moved by Zhao Hong's intention.

Zhao Xiulan thanked, "Sister-in-law, thank you for these cotton-padded shoes. I look very nice and warm. It's too late to be happy, how can I dislike them."

Zhao Hong smiled and replied, "It's fine if you don't dislike it, and there's no need to thank you. Usually, you have given our family so many benefits, and I have nothing to repay you, so I thought about making you a pair of cotton shoes."

"Sister-in-law, you are so skillful, and the shoes are so well made." Zhao Xiulan praised, speaking, women in this era, especially rural women, basically make shoes, and making shoes is not a meticulous job. Much easier than knitting.

Ordinary families don’t have that much money to buy shoes, so they usually use old cloth from home, or dismantle a few pieces of cloth from ragged clothes, and then add a sole to make a pair of shoes.

Speaking of which, apart from not being so beautiful, cloth shoes are really comfortable to wear.

And it doesn't smell so bad when you wear it, but it's a little troublesome to do, and it takes some time.

People in this era are different from people in the 21st century. Everyone has free time at night, and there are no entertainment activities. Making a pair of shoes at night can kill time.

The most important thing is to save money. If you don’t have money in your hands, you can save a little bit.

Zhao Hong received Zhao Xiulan's praise and said with a smile, "I'm so handy, I'm used to it.

Sister Xiulan, look at how rough my hands are? It looks like the hands of an old man, unlike you, your hands are white and tender. You obviously have a lot of work, how can you keep your hands so well? "

Zhao Xiulan looked at Zhao Hong's hand, and it really looked rough beyond her age.

"Sister-in-law, that's because you didn't take good care of it. The more you work, the better the maintenance. Go back and buy some vanishing cream to apply. If you think vanishing cream is expensive, then buy some clam oil. Clam oil is much cheaper, only a cent or two. Money. But the effect is still very good. If you use it for a long time, your hands will be smooth, white and tender.

Comrade Xu's salary is so high a month, so it's okay to save a few cents to buy some clam oil for you. Sister-in-law, women have to be kind to themselves. They should take good care of themselves when they are young. When they get old, it will be too late to take care of them. "

After listening to Zhao Xiulan's words, Zhao Hong thought that what Zhao Xiulan said was quite reasonable.

However, Zhao Hong was still reluctant to spend money.

Country people, used to living a hard life, even if conditions are better now, they still live frugally on weekdays.

It's not that she doesn't want to, it's just that she never thought about taking care of herself before, and now her thoughts and concepts can't be changed all of a sudden.

Looking at Zhao Hong, she still seemed reluctant. Zhao Xiulan went back to the house, took out a bottle of hand cream without a logo, and handed it to Zhao Hong, "Sister-in-law, give you a bottle of hand cream, I bought a lot. If you can’t use it up, it won’t work if it expires in two months, just give you a bottle, you can use it and try it out, it’s not worth much, it’s about the same as clam oil.”
