For this reason, as long as Qiao Nan looked at these old generals with such a pink and tender face, the old generals would feel as comfortable as if they had drunk Erguotou. .
"Old Zhai, you are so lucky. This little girl is so brave. She can still walk and laugh when she sees us." Some old comrades patted Mr. Zhai on the shoulder with envy. In fact, they were also worried. Come on your own, don't let the atmosphere get bad by then.
The grandson of Lao Zhai's family is quite old, but the girl he ordered is young and has only reached adulthood. It will take several years before he wants to get married.
The old generals have been old revolutionaries all their lives, and what they like most is their military uniforms.
Whenever they pay attention to something and feel it should be a grand appearance, even if they wear their own military uniforms, they give them the greatest attention and respect.
These old generals and revolutionaries are intimidating enough when they wear civilian clothes, but they are even more intimidating when they wear military uniforms, as if they are participating in some major national event.
The attention of the old generals is really not something that ordinary people can afford.
Fortunately, Qiao Nan could withstand it.
It is now fashionable in China to imitate foreigners and wear white wedding dresses when getting engaged and getting married, but the old generals like traditional Chinese things.
Today, Qiao Nan is wearing a fresh and red modified cheongsam.
Most cheongsams are made of thick and heavy materials. On this hot day and there is no air conditioning, Qiao Nan can't bear to wear them.
To this end, Qiao Nan used her little expertise to choose and cut the fabrics herself, and made an improved cheongsam wedding dress.
The sewing machine Shi Qing gave her couldn't be used just once and then retired. It would be too wasteful.
Of course, Shi Qing is also a cruel woman. Originally, she had no interest in the so-called improved cheongsam. After Qiao Nan made her own dress and she thought it looked good, she asked Qiao Nanfei to make one for her too.
But today, on this good day, Shi Qing is clearly wearing the improved cheongsam made by Qiao Nan, constantly wandering in front of Zhai Hua, enjoying the jealous eyes of Zhai Hua, and then receiving praises from countless uncles and uncles whom she knows and is familiar with. : "That's right. Our Chinese products are so good, and our clothes are beautiful. We should learn from those things of the foreign devils. Wearing nothing but gauze, wearing white clothes all day long, it's as if someone has left at home." This looks good, looks good!”
It can be said that Qiao Nan and Shi Qing's improved cheongsam has received countless praises from the veteran generals, and they can't help but praise them.
"No, I'm still young. I don't have enough exercise and little experience." Mr. Zhai, whose face was also filled with radiance, smiled like a chrysanthemum and said, "I heard that the clothes on my grandson's daughter-in-law were made by myself. . The craftsmanship is not very good, just average, and it’s still passable.”
"Oh, you can also make your own clothes, what a good girl."
The old generals praised them righteously.
Unlike today's young people, the old generals do not believe in buying what they eat and use, but believe in cooking and growing it at home.
Until now, old generals rarely wear leather shoes, and most of them wear cloth shoes, which are still the kind of cloth shoes that need to be put in piece by piece. They always feel that these kind of cloth shoes are comfortable and solid on the feet.
As for the so-called air-cushion sneakers made by foreign devils, no matter how filial their children are and no matter how good they buy them, the old generals will not wear them a second time and feel uncomfortable all over after trying them once.
Things from your own country are so good, why should you wear clothes from a foreign country
For this reason, I really like a little girl like Qiao Nan who is skilled in making things by herself.
"You don't know that this child is young but very filial. He knows that I like to wear Chinese tunic suits, but he insists on making me one. They are both too busy with their engagement, so what can they do for me! I can tell you what to do, then The child then agreed to make a set for me to wear when school is over and before school starts."
At this moment, Mr. Zhai has had enough of showing off.
We are in the 21st century, and we have always listened to what the younger generation bought for them, rather than what they did. These old revolutionaries, it seems, they just like what they did, not what they bought.
Mr. Zhai's words were full of show-off.
Really, there is nothing wrong with being young, as long as you are sensible.
The granddaughter-in-laws in their family are much older than the little girl in front of them. They have not even had a pair of socks made, let alone a Chinese tunic suit.
It's not like when they were young, when a girl wanted to get married, she had to make a lot of shoes and keep them as gifts for her husband's family. Without these, she would be a lazy daughter-in-law who couldn't meet anyone.
"Go, go, go." If you show off too much, you will definitely be hated by others: "Go away and let the little girl pour us a cup of tea." What an annoying old man.
"Hahaha..." Mr. Zhai not only was not angry, but also smiled very happily: "When the suit is ready, I will put it back on and show it to you."
"..." Faced with Mr. Zhai's talk becoming more and more energetic, the old generals rolled their eyes frequently. Their grandsons were already engaged and yet it was so disrespectful and childish!
"Did you hear that? If you say it, it will be thrown out. This suit of clothes is not only remembered by the old man, but you have to make it for him before he goes back. Otherwise, you will be blown away today. You The clothes are not ready yet, do you believe that the old man will not leave?" Zhai Sheng smiled, it was rare to see the old man like this, it seems that the old man was really happy today.
Qiao Nan blushed: "Actually, I've already made the proofs. When the cutting is finished, it only takes one day to step on it."
Qiao Nan didn't expect that she was a trick created by "poor", but in the eyes of these old generals, she was so popular and sold well. Is this a mistake
The Qiao family's conditions are not good, and the tuition fees are patched together and only financed by various parties. It is a one-time engagement, and Qiao Dongliang is embarrassed to accept too many things from the Zhai family, as if he is selling his daughter.
In order to take care of the face of both Qiao Dongliang and the Zhai family, the engagement clothes must be prepared well. They are too expensive to buy, so they can only make them by themselves to keep them fresh.
Who would have imagined that these old generals still like this.
The money in Qiao Nan's hands is enough to buy fabrics to make a suit for Mr. Zhai, but if he really has to go to the market to buy a better suit, let alone a full suit, he can't even buy half a top or bottom.
Zhai Sheng smiled: "If the old man knew about this situation, he would brag about it in front of his old comrades."
"..." Qiao Nan looked shy and said, "As long as the old leader doesn't dislike him." It's a good thing that these old revolutionaries are so simple and lovely. Otherwise, based on her preparations today, she would be barely decent at most, with some bad words, and even worse words to say about her.
