Chapter 287 Borrowing clothes and shoes 3
October 18th is November 25th in the Gregorian calendar, and there are only a few days left before the wedding.
Others still went to work, mainly transporting the manure from the cowshed to the ground and spreading it evenly. Feng Qingxue was at home organizing the things brought by Uncle Feng. The dried vegetables continued to dry. It was time to go down to the cellar and then wash them. The military uniforms were ironed to a very smooth shape, and then they hurriedly made winter clothes for the children.
She and Father Lu are adults, and their body sizes have not changed much, so they don't need to make new clothes, but the same cannot be said for children.
Brothers Lu Tianjuan and Feng Qingyun have grown so much that their clothes from last year are too small and their shoes can no longer be worn.
Guancheng and Guanyu came to their home just this year, and they had no winter clothes at all. They were busy with the autumn harvest, and Feng Qingxue had no time. The two brothers wore the clothes of brother Lu Tianjun last year because they were shorter.
Feng Qingxue didn't treat Guancheng and Guanyu as outsiders, nor did she plan to make new clothes for her family every year. She directly said to their brothers: "Tianjuan and Tianzhi's clothes and shoes were made last year. You are wearing the right clothes, so I will start with them." I won’t make new ones for you.”
"Aunt, this is good."
Guan Yu is young, but Guan Cheng is not an unscrupulous person. Although the clothes are old, there are no patches inside or outside. The autumn clothes, long johns, sweaters and woolen trousers have been washed cleanly on the upper body and front, and the cotton clothes and trousers have also been washed. Feng Qingxue took it apart, washed the inside, and dried the cotton inside for two days before sewing it. It was no different from the new one.
Feng Qingxue didn't make new clothes for her sister. She took apart the sweater and woolen trousers and added some wool to knit them again. The autumn clothes, autumn trousers and outer trousers were directly sewn with the same fabric on the trouser leg cuffs. The same was true for the lining of the cotton clothes and trousers.
Only Lu Tianjun and Lu Tianzhi were actually wearing new clothes, autumn clothes and long trousers, sweaters and woolen trousers, and cotton coats and trousers.
Last year's ones were given to Guan Cheng and Guan Yu, so they had nothing to wear and had to make new ones.
However, not all the clothes of the two brothers had been replaced with new ones. The outer trousers were the same as Feng Qingyun's, with the legs and cuffs of the trousers spliced together to continue wearing them, and Lu Jiang's old military uniforms were also made smaller.
Feng Qingxue also used Lu Jiang's old military uniform to change Guancheng's clothes.
As for shoes, everyone got two new pairs, one pair of single shoes and one pair of cotton shoes.
They were not made by Feng Qingxue, but were handmade cloth shoes that she took out from the space, which were more in line with the current characteristics.
Although it was almost half a month since the beginning of winter, it was not cold enough to require wearing cotton-padded clothes. However, on the way Feng Qingxue took her sister to the Caohu Brigade, she noticed that many people were wearing cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and were wearing separate clothes worn in spring, summer and autumn. pants.
Feng Qingxue pushed the bicycle with a bamboo basket hanging on the side of the back seat, while Feng Qingyun sat sideways on the back seat with her legs resting on the basket cover.
"Sister, it hurts my butt." Feng Qingyun wrinkled her nose. Bicycles are not that easy to sit on. She used to really want to ride a bicycle, but now she wants to get off and walk.
"You just sit down and you walk. How slow is that? When can we get to Caohu?"
Feng Qingyun pursed her lips.
As soon as she entered the Caohu Brigade, Feng Qingyun jumped out of the back seat and rubbed her butt vigorously.
Ma Haiyan, who came to greet the two sisters, smiled when she saw this, "Hey, Xiaoyun, come back on a bicycle, what are you doing?"
"My butt hurts!" Feng Qingyun glanced at the back seat of the bicycle, "Sister, you should make a cushion and tie it to it so that my butt doesn't hurt. My brother-in-law came to pick you up before, and that's what I remember."
Feng Qingxue's response was to slap her on the head.
