Chapter 753: Frightened Xu Shao (1/3)
Mei Xiaoran stayed in the store for an afternoon and was very satisfied with Zhou Yan's performance. Compared with Zhou Yan, her hands were no longer called hands, they should be called toes.
"Zhou Yan, do you know how to cut clothes?"
"Yes, let me tell you this. From cutting to making this dress, I know how to do it. I can make the dress."
"Then it will be easy, you can make two sets of clothes for me with this silk cloth."
"What are you going to do with silk cloth? You can't wear it."
"I don't wear it, but I want to make two clothes for Xiao Doudou. After all, my big cousin hasn't even bought a thread for him."
"That's easy, just talk about it now, and I can do it for you in a while."
Mei Xiaoran picked two pieces of fabric in the shop, both of which were more cartoonish and suitable for children to wear.
The silk cloth is light, soft and absorbs sweat. The only drawback is that it is easy to crease. It is cool to wear in summer, especially for children. It is more comfortable than pure cotton clothes.
After choosing the fabric, Zhou Yan started.
The little gown worn by children is best made, and the style is simple.
Zhou Yan cut the style and stepped on the sewing machine to make it. It took two hours to make two small sets of clothes.
"Zhou Yan, you are amazing. Compared to you, I can't do anything. I'm just an old idiot."
"That's because you haven't touched it before. If you have touched it, you will do it."
Zhou Yan is a meticulous person. After making the little clothes, she sews the rubber band around her waist, so that the two sets of little clothes can be worn as long as they are in the water.
Mei Xiaoran excitedly took out the money, but Zhou Yan refused to accept it: "It's all a family, why should I ask for your money? Besides, Xiao Doudou is not my cousin? I haven't given him anything. !"
"That's not the same, each is its own mind, besides, this cloth has a cost!"
Seeing that Zhou Yan still refused to accept the money, Mei Xiaoran became anxious: "Zhou Yan, let me tell you, this is what I want to give to Xiaodoudou. Do you want to grab my merits if you don't accept the money?"
Zhou Yan then smiled and took the money, but only left a cost price: "I have collected the cloth money, and you have to care about other things with me, and I won't give you clothes."
"That's all right, it's up to you."
Mei Xiaoran is not so persistent anymore.
Just wait until seven o'clock in the evening, two
The aunt came back with the goods.
"Ran Ran, what do you think of the goods I bought this time?"
Mei Xiaoran thinks that the colors are all pretty good, just because of the hot weather, touching the thick fabric still feels hot, even a little hot!
"Ran, the cloth used for bed sheets and quilts is different from the cloth used for clothes. Although it has to be colored, it can't be too expensive. No one likes it if it's too expensive."
"I know."
At this time, Zhou Yan handed over the work of making the little gown that she took in the afternoon to her mother: "Mom, this is a measured size."
Li Mingqin took it and took a look: "Summer clothes should be slightly relaxed in size to cool down. If you want to make the clothes suitable, you should also reserve the size. This must take into account the loss and shrinkage of the fabric."
At this time, Mei Xiaoran took out the two sets of small clothes made by Zhou Yan in the afternoon: "Auntie, how do you think these two sets of small clothes are made?"
"Not bad, who did this?"
"Of course it's your dear girl. She did it. I don't have the ability to do it."
"Zhou Yan did it?"
Li Mingqin couldn't believe it, and quickly took it over and looked through it from beginning to end. Finally, he came to the conclusion that the overall work is fine, but it is not without shortcomings.
For example, the neckline of the clothes is too small. In summer, even if you look at it, a little fabric will make people uncomfortable to wear. Then there are buttons. Since they are made for children, buttons must be considered. The younger the child, the more he likes to put the buttons in his mouth, and he will eat it if he is not careful... Use that kind of cloth. The buckle is the best, it is tightly sewn on the clothes, it is not easy to fall, and it is not easy to be caught by the button when turning over during sleep.
"Then I will change it now."
When Zhou Yan was pointed by her mother, she immediately started to do it, and it took less than half an hour to make the correction. At this time, Li Mingqin couldn't wait to go back in advance, but Mei Xiaoran waited eagerly for Zhou Yan. !
"Finally it's changed. Let's send it to my aunt. After tonight, I will be able to wear Xiaodoudou."
"You have been busy all afternoon. You must be hungry. Let's go out and eat something first."
Mei Xiaoran thinks that sending it to Doudou tomorrow is the same, but she also wants to ask her dad when the loan is due to take advantage of the gift.
, After all, the money here is about to be in place, so I mustn’t worry about my little uncle Xu Shao anymore.
After eating something out with Zhou Yan casually, Mei Xiaoran took Zhou Yan to her aunt's house.
Well in summer, everyone was up at this time. Xu Shao happened to be out shopping, and Xiao Doudou was lying on the mat and eating his fat feet!
"Auntie, I haven't bought anything for Xiao Doudou. These two sets of small clothes are just made. You can make Xiao Doudou wear them first."
Li Mingli took the small clothes and looked at it. Although they are all very simple styles, it may be obvious that these two small clothes are still made with great care, so she asked her: "Who made this?"
"I asked Zhou Yan to do it."
"Zhou Yan's craftsmanship is good, I think it's better than your mother's craftsmanship."
"It's okay, I just learned it, so I just make do with Xiaodoudou."
As he was talking, Xu Shao returned with the big watermelon he had just bought, and smiled when he saw these two nephews: "Oh, both flowers are here."
"Little uncle, you are so complacent. But when it comes to beauty, you must count my aunt!"
Xu Shao smiled and asked Li Mingli to cut the watermelon.
At this time, Mei Xiaoran asked her dad when the loan was due. After all, she came back and ran this trip specifically to solve this problem.
"It's just over the past few days, and I'm also fighting this matter."
"Are you okay a few days later?"
Mei Xiaoran was afraid that Xu Shao would not understand, so he said directly: "Little uncle, I have already got this. I just have to wait for the remittance to come over. It may take a few days."
"You got it?"
Xu Shao was shocked, and at the time he began to talk loudly: "That's hundreds of thousands, why did you get it? Ran Ran, let me tell you that if you really can't think of a way, your aunt and I will also pool money to help your family get through the trouble. Yeah, don't you think about it if you go the wrong way?"
"Little uncle, don't get excited. I made up the money. I earned my share of business and didn't go wrong. Anyway, I'm also a college student, so I won't be so unreliable in doing things!"
Xu Shao didn’t believe it. It’s not something that can be solved by a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars. It’s hundreds of thousands. He forced Mei Xiaoran to ask, "Then tell me where did you get these hundreds of thousands? , If you don’t say it clearly, I don’t believe you."
