Chapter 29 Will anyone buy it?
Ye Xiuqing spoke very quickly. By the time Ye Xiuli came to her senses, she had already said what she should and should not say.
Seeing everyone staring at her, Ye Xiuli didn't have a chance to say anything if she refused.
He could only grit his teeth and reluctantly agreed.
Ye Tiezhu and Zhao Chunhua could clearly see the small dispute between the two granddaughters. However, they originally favored Ye Xiuqing. In addition, this time it was Ye Xiuli who picked things up first. So, they didn't say anything.
Zhao Chunhua moved very quickly, because she was afraid that she would not be able to catch up with Ye Xiuqing to accept the award. So that night, she lit a kerosene lamp and cut Ye Xiuqing's clothes.
Early the next morning, she took the fabric and went to borrow a sewing machine from an old sister's house.
Because Ye Xiuqing pushed all her work to Ye Xiuli yesterday. Therefore, Ye Xiuqing had a rare idle day.
After sleeping for a while in the room at noon, I saw Zhao Chunhua walking in from outside.
As soon as Zhao Chunhua saw Ye Xiuqing, she waved at her. After Ye Xiuqing passed by, she gestured the clothes she was holding on her body.
Zhao Chunhua's craftsmanship is not bad, although this suit has no bright spots, it is just quite satisfactory. Even, in order to allow Ye Xiuqing to wear it for two more years, it was a little bigger.
However, Ye Xiuqing was very satisfied to be able to wear new clothes.
Just go out like this tomorrow, and let the rest of the commune see how handsome our old Ye family girl is.
Hearing Zhao Chunhua's words, Ye Xiuqing smiled a little embarrassedly.
It's still milk's craftsmanship, and the clothes made are very good. I will wear this clothes tomorrow, and others will definitely envy me.
Hearing Ye Xiuqing complimenting her craftsmanship, the smile on Zhao Chunhua's face deepened.
Seeing that Zhao Chunhua was in a good mood at this time, Ye Xiuqing hurriedly opened her mouth to seek welfare for herself.
Milk, can you give me some of the rags left over from your clothes?
Hearing Ye Xiuqing's words, Zhao Chunhua hesitated a bit.
Although Ye Xiuqing wanted a rag head, but in the countryside of this era, a rag head is a good thing, and it can make a lot of things if you put it together.
Seeing Zhao Chunhua's hesitation, Ye Xiuqing said hurriedly.
Milk, just give me a little less. I'm thinking of going to receive the award tomorrow and make myself a small headband.
Hearing Ye Xiuqing's words, although Zhao Chunhua didn't know, how could a rag head be used as a headband. But the rag head is not valuable in the first place, and it is what the most prosperous granddaughter in the family wants. She thought about it for a while, and went back to the house to get some for Ye Xiuqing.
Okay, I don't ask you why you want this shit, just don't waste it.
Damn, don't worry, I'm definitely not going to mess around with things casually.
After the last family went bankrupt, Ye Xiuqing did a lot of work in order to repay the debt. In the evening, I once went to the night market to set up a street stall.
Therefore, she still has a little idea of what young girls like.
After Ye Xiuqing took these rags back to the house, from the cabinet of the house, she dug out the box that Zhou Cuiyun usually used for sewing.
Sure enough, there's a lot of good stuff in there.
What she wants to do now is the most common large intestine hair ring in later generations.
Ye Xiuqing remembered that this kind of hair rope was very popular for a while. Moreover, the method is very simple, and there are not many materials used.
The color of the rag head that Zhao Chunhua gave was not really fresh. However, Ye Xiuqing has learned art color matching, and her ability to grasp color is still outstanding.
The original dull color, with Ye Xiuqing's skillful collocation, became elegant. Although the workmanship is simple, it looks very good.
Ye Xiuqing moves very quickly.
Soon the material in the handle was almost used up.
Looking at the few rubber bands left in the box, and a lot of rags. Ye Xiuqing thought for a while, wrapped some brightly colored cloth strips around the rubber band, and used other cloth strips to make some decorations.
Soon, the original ordinary strip of cloth became a bow, which is very beautiful.
Insufficient raw materials can only be done like this.
Looking at the twenty or so hair ties in her hands, Ye Xiuqing was a little disappointed.
I hope everything goes well tomorrow, and you can help me earn my first pot of gold.
Ye Xiuqing was not satisfied with the hair ropes she made, but for Zhou Cuiyun, it was a new thing.
After returning to the house at night and seeing these hair ties, Zhou Cuiyun's eyes were a little straight.
Qing girl, where did you get this from? It's too pretty.
In the past few years, everyone did not have the conditions to dress themselves up, and the clothes they wore were all plain colors, not to mention hair ties, which had some foreign style and freshness.
Now suddenly seeing this kind of thing that will become popular decades later, Zhou Cuiyun feels extremely novel.
My grandma and I asked for some rags today, and I made these out of rags.
As Ye Xiuqing spoke, she picked two out of her hair tie and handed them to Zhou Cuiyun.
Mother, these two are the best looking, here are you.
Zhou Cuiyun was not polite to her daughter either, she took it over with a smile, held it in her hand, and couldn't put it down.
Mother, you said that if I take out these hair ropes, will anyone buy them if they sell them for a dime?
Hearing that Ye Xiuqing wanted to sell these things, Ye Jiangong, who was sitting on the side because he was not interested in hair ropes, also came over.
Hearing Ye Xiuqing's words, the two of them each picked up a hair rope and looked at it.
Now salt is only two cents a pound, something like a head rope is not a necessities of life, and this price is really not necessarily bought by anyone.
Hearing Ye Jiangong's analysis, Ye Xiuqing also felt that her price was a bit high.
On the contrary, Zhou Cuiyun had a different idea at this time.
It's not necessarily true. If you can afford a headband now, the conditions at home are pretty good. If you don't say anything else, let's just say that the red headband sold in the supply and marketing cooperative will cost five cents. Qing girl this hair. , isn't it a hair tie, isn't this hair tie much better than the red headband? I think it's not too expensive for a dime. These ones are complicated in workmanship, and they can be a little more expensive. You believe me, someone purchase.
Hearing Zhou Cuiyun's words, Ye Xiuqing felt more confident in her heart.
That's fine, then I'll try it at this price tomorrow. If it doesn't work, I'll adjust the price.
Hearing Ye Xiuqing's words, Ye Jiangong only reacted at this time.
No, girl, aren't you going to receive the award tomorrow? Why are you still selling things?
