Just as she was about to pack up, Liu Yun was stunned for a moment, then continued with a wry smile, "Selling sweaters? The department store has a storefront, and it takes a lot of money to hire people and buy wool. It's a big business, how can we learn from others... "
"No, Auntie, you misunderstood." Chen Yuanming shook his head gently, "It's not the big ones like sweaters, such as scarves, gloves and other small ones? This kind of thing is very easy to knit and doesn't take much trouble, if you can take it out to sell…”
"Hey~~" Liu Yun laughed, "Doudou, you're really out of your money! No one would buy gloves these days, and they would come out just by crocheting them. Don't you know how to knit sweaters and how to hook gloves? Ah..." She looked at Chen Yuanming's frostbite hands, hesitated for a moment, and changed her words with a smile, "Your mother is too busy, I'll give you a pair of hooks when my aunt is free..."
Chen Yuanming didn't agree this time, but shook his head firmly, "I said it's not the ordinary woolen gloves. Although the mittens can be worn outside, they still have to be taken off at home and in the classroom. Like our class, there is a room in the room. People 5 and 6 only have a coal stove at the back of the classroom. It’s so warm in winter that their hands will freeze when holding a pen and writing. If you can make a kind of woolen gloves, you can separate five fingers and leave half of the fingertips empty, so you can wear gloves. How about holding a pen and writing? No one has ever made this thing, so ordinary people may not be able to weave it, and there must be sales!"
This time, Liu Yun stopped moving, her slender eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if thinking about the possibility of this. After a long time, she finally asked, "What about the thread? I'm all knitting spring shirts here, and this color …”
"The wool thread is not a problem." Chen Yuanming said decisively, "It doesn't take much thread to hook a glove. I think the short threads with brighter colors left at home can be used for color matching. It's good to add another main color, and the gloves don't need to be too thick. Being flexible and convenient is the key, after all, everyone keeps out of the cold when writing, so if you pick up the sweater, auntie, you might still have some lines left, so you can just use it directly."
Knitting helpers do have some wear and tear by default. In previous years, Liu Yun used these threads to add small pieces to her family or mix large pieces. If you save all these threads... Even if you don't save them, it's not impossible to buy some more cost-effective thread balls. , but this investment, if you lose it
"Can... Can you sell it?" In the end, she still gritted her teeth and asked. Everyone is poor these days. She just changed the habit of shaving food from the soil to shaving from the factory, and she only dares to face herself for one-third of an acre. hard. It is precisely because of this kind of cowardice that those in the 1980s and 1999s who dared to break into the sea and dared to conquer the sea became the first rich generation.
"Yes!" Knowing the other party's concerns too well, Chen Yuanming pulled out a very bright smile, "Auntie, your craftsmanship is so good that you can sell it in big shopping malls. It's just a small glove, it's a complete test! It's only 1 At the end of the month, it’s still too early for winter to pass. This year’s Chinese New Year is February 15th. If you make it in time for the Spring Festival, you can set up a stall to sell it in front of the department store or the family courtyard of the municipal government, and display it in bright colors. Don’t be afraid of those The little girl Amy is not excited! It hasn't snowed this year yet, it's cold and dry, there are definitely business opportunities!"
Being so inspired by Chen Yuanming, Liu Yun was completely moved. She used to be a lively person, otherwise she wouldn't take up private work, but now she has a simple, the key is a really feasible idea... After taking a long breath, she nodded, "Then... Then I'll try it first? This thing No one has done it, I really don’t know if it can be done, if I can, I will knit a pair for both of you first…”
"That's a good feeling." Chen Yuanming replied with a smile, "It's just that when you make it, don't let it leak out, in case someone learns it..."
"Hey! Sigh~~ I understand!" Liu Yun also laughed, and the sweater looked the same. After thinking about it with a fashion magazine, many of the patterns in it could be knitted. Only myself and my daughter can knit. The idea is stolen, but it can't catch up with others.
The two laughed happily, while Sun Lang opened his mouth and asked stupidly, "What are you talking about? First of all, I don't want wool gloves! I'm going to die with trouble..."
"Oh, you stupid boy!" Liu Yun slapped her and slapped her son on the head, "Look at how smart and capable Doudou is, you've learned everything from a dog's stomach!"
"Hey! Mom!" Sun Lang felt that he had been wronged. Whoever he provokes who provokes whoever! "I'm also a key class in No. 2 Middle School. I'll definitely be in the top 5 this time..."
"Five farts! No. 2 middle school is not a key junior high school! Go wash the dishes!!"
"What?!" Sun Langceng jumped up from the stool, "It's so cold, let me wash?!"
"You dead child, what's the matter with me making you wash the dishes?!"
Looking at the mother and son on the bar, Chen Yuanming stood up with a smile, "Auntie, let me come, my family also washes often..."
"Oh, how can you do that, and your hands are still frozen, don't keep touching cold water... Er Mao!" Liu's eyebrows stood upright, Liu Yun glared at her son, and her nickname was greeted.
Sun Lang glanced at Chen Yuanming's black, red, and thin claws, and finally lost. "Okay... I'm here, I'm here, I'm just washing the dishes~~~ Doudou, sit down, and I'll show you and buy pictures later when my brother finishes washing!"
Muttering and mumbling, he picked up the three bowls and walked towards the sink.
"This child!" Liu Yun smiled awkwardly, looked at Chen Yuanming, who was calm and not like a child, but suddenly felt a little distressed, such a smart and well-behaved child, how could she not be her cub, it's a pity that the old Chen's family is too shabby. , plainly wronged the child...
Thinking about Liu Yun, he pressed Chen Yuanming back to his seat, "Doudou, sit down, auntie will make you a cup of red jujube tea. Your uncle only made red dates a few days ago, but it's sweet."
Being pressed back and sitting back, Chen Yuanming sat at the dining table and looked at the busy family, a warm current flowing through his heart. He is actually envious. The more he accepts the memory in his mind, the more he admires such warmth, but is it still possible for his own home? The spark in his eyes slowly dimmed, some things he might not be able to change, but others, he had to try...
That day, Sun Lang stayed at Sun Lang's house for an afternoon. After visiting this guy's collection of a full set of paintings of military generals from the Three Kingdoms and a self-made bamboo festival Zhao Zilong, Chen Yuan thanked Jue Fang for escorting him on a bicycle and walked home slowly.
In winter, it got dark after 5 o'clock. When I walked into the house, the hot water in the pot just started to boil. His mother was standing in front of the coal fire with a small bowl of batter, preparing to make gnocchi soup. When she saw her son coming back, Immediately added a few points to the movements in his hands, he asked with a smile, "Where did you go to play today?"
"Going out for a walk, I happened to run into Sun Lang, so I ran to his house to play for a while."
"Sun Lang?" Wang Juan was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Maomao, right? Have you seen your Aunt Liu? We haven't seen you much since his family moved to Yijing Community."
"Well, Aunt Liu is also at home. I eat at their house at noon and make noodles by hand."
"Oh, why are you so careless..." Wang Juan frowned, "Forget it, I'll bring some to others when I see you next time..." Halfway through, she suddenly couldn't go on, her jaw clenched slightly, and her jaw dropped. All twitched a little, "Okay, let's go home first, the meal will be ready soon."
Of course, Chen Yuanming knows what it is to be swallowed by her mother. Outsiders are okay. She is really embarrassed to show her timidity in front of such a well-informed acquaintance, but her family has no conditions to put on a show. In the past year, everyone lived a hard life, and there was really no one who directly disliked the poor and loved the rich, but poverty still made her unable to lift her head, and her self-esteem became more sensitive.
Without saying anything, Chen Yuanming walked into the house. I saw my father sitting in front of the small table, stooping slightly, exuding exhaustion all over his body. At the end of the year, the factory was rushing to work, and each branch began to arrange overtime work. For such a little overtime pay, his father, Chen Jianhua, had not rested for a whole month, not even on Sundays and holidays, just for more than a year before the new year. Make two money to pass the New Year...
Chen Yuanming's footsteps stopped, and the man opposite had already woken up. When he saw his son, his first reaction was to frown, and then scolded his face. "Going crazy again!! You are in the third year of junior high, what else are you going to do other than fight and go crazy?! You won't be obedient and do some homework at home, will you finish your winter vacation homework?!"
"I haven't assigned homework for the winter vacation..." Chen Yuanming replied in a low voice, his eyes were a little sour. In that previous life, he had always had a very bad relationship with his father. Except for his studies and work, he had never heard a single word of praise from his father. All of them were scolding and scolding. In order to resign and go to the north, he was almost cut off from his family, and it didn't get better until he started to make money. After the establishment of his wealth management company, he eased the conflict and turned to getting married and starting a family, and this point, he will never be able to meet the wishes of the second old man. …
I don't know how his parents will react to the world in which he died. The company collapsed, but the accounts were basically clear and they left enough legacy. They... Chen Yuanming swallowed his saliva dryly, feeling that his heart was burning, and the words blurted out, " I... I did well in the exam this time, I will study hard... "
Get you out of this life...
Choked by the sudden words, Chen Jianhua was at a loss for words, murmured a few words, finally waved his hand, and buried his head again. Wang Juanfei served the boiled soup. Unlike other people's sweet noodle soup, his noodle soup is always salty. There are two cabbage leaves and a little salt in it. For cooking, it's good to eat steamed bread.
"Eat it while it's hot!" As if to ease the relationship between father and son, Wang Juan finished the meal and sat down at the table, "Don't talk about Doudou all day long, as long as we can get into college, we can too. Just like those top students in the main factory, they get 12 yuan salary, right Doudou!"
The 15-watt light bulb in the room was flashing a dim yellow light. In the light and shadow, Chen Yuanming nodded and ate.
