Educated Youth in the Countryside: She is the Village's Embroidery Queen!-Chapter 404: That Was Thoughtful!

"Thank you!"

Ge Sujuan and Zhou Qiuyu saw that Wen Shi seemed a bit awkward but still thanked him politely.

Wen Shi noticed their discomfort, smiled, and said, "You’re welcome," before asking Yi Chichi to take good care of them and then leaving to give them some space.

As soon as he left, the two people who were extremely tense immediately let out a long sigh of relief, looking as if they had come back to life.

Yi Chichi couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time, "Was it necessary for you two?"

Her Wen Shi is quite good-looking, not scary at all.

Zhou Qiuyu took a deep breath and said softly, "You might not find it necessary, but we do. Your Mr. Wen gives me a very fierce feeling."

From the first meeting, she felt that Wen Shi was fierce.

Instead, Mr. He, who looked more rugged, felt a bit friendlier to her.

It’s a very strange feeling.

"Chichi, do you two argue?"

This sudden question left Yi Chichi stunned and puzzled.

"Argue?"

She wondered if she had misheard and couldn’t help but seek confirmation.

Zhou Qiuyu replied with a sound, indicating that she hadn’t heard wrong.

Yi Chichi twitched her mouth, "We’ve never argued."

Zhou Qiuyu finally relaxed but still reminded, "Don’t argue with him, no matter how angry you get."

"...Alright!"

Yi Chichi didn’t quite understand Zhou Qiuyu’s thinking, but she nodded to reassure her.

So that the young girl wouldn’t keep worrying about her.

Genuine goodwill is to be accepted!

"You came to see me for something?"

Get to the point quickly, so she could go with Wen Shi to the commune to buy some tiger cane.

"Yes!"

"What’s the matter?"

She watched them with interest, Zhou Qiuyu pointed at Ge Sujuan, "It’s not me, it’s Juanzi."

Yi Chichi looked over, and under her gaze, Ge Sujuan’s face slowly reddened.

"I, I want to ask you to make me a piece of clothing!"

Not yet realizing the issue, Yi Chichi agreed readily, "Sure, is it for spring or summer? What kind of fabric, do you have a style in mind?"

"The fabric is here, as for the style..."

Pausing, Ge Sujuan said helplessly, "I’ll leave it to you."

She only knows how to create as instructed, coming up with a style is beyond her capabilities.

She really couldn’t think of anything.

Opening the package, she took out a piece of bright red khaki fabric, "Use this."

Yi Chichi’s eyes widened, looking at the red fabric, then at Ge Sujuan, "Is it for the wedding?"

Ge Sujuan shyly nodded, the blush on her cheeks spreading, and the joy in her brows and eyes made her as vivid as a peach blossom blooming on a branch.

"With Old Witch?"

"Yes!"

This was good news, Yi Chichi became happy, "Is the date set?"

"March 28th."

"Gregorian or Lunar calendar?"

If it’s the Gregorian calendar there isn’t much time left, but if it’s the Lunar calendar there’s almost two months.

"Gregorian."

Yi Chichi suddenly felt stressed, March in the Northeast is not like the South, which is already warming up.

It’s still icy and snowy, there might even be snow.

Khaki fabric is thicker than cotton or silk, but not as warm as wool or other materials.

Its warmth is negligible.

"If the fabric is for the wedding day, then you’d have to wear a big padded jacket over it."

She reminded her.

Ge Sujuan had thought it through, smiling, "I know, it’s mainly for everyday wear."

In that case, it can be easier to handle!

"Wait a moment."

She ran inside to grab some drafts, spreading them out, "Choose one, we’ll make whichever you like."

Ge Sujuan made a sound of acknowledgment and carefully picked one, "I like this one."

A mid-length classic style, focusing on simplicity and competence, with standout details at the waist and cuffs.

Ge Sujuan has a good eye.

"Alright."

She nodded and casually grabbed a measuring tape, "Come on, let’s go inside to take your measurements."

"Okay."

Ge Sujuan stood up, and Zhou Qiuyu hurriedly followed, afraid of being left behind.

Once inside, when Yi Chichi was bustling around to get Ge Sujuan’s measurements, Zhou Qiuyu said something surprising, "Chichi, isn’t it said that skilled tailors can tell a customer’s measurements just by looking?"

Yi Chichi was in the middle of measuring Ge Sujuan’s bust, and upon hearing this, was left speechless, "In summer when clothes are thin, it’s not a big problem, but in winter with so many layers, who’s got eyes that can see through the outer layers?"

She certainly doesn’t have that ability.

"Also, a person’s weight can fluctuate with the seasons."

Commonly known as gaining or losing weight.

Zhou Qiuyu made a sound in acknowledgment, "So, making clothes requires attention to detail."

Ge Sujuan laughed, "Others don’t pay as much attention to making clothes as Chichi does."

Always designing and taking precise measurements.

Nowadays, the old masters in state-run shops just do rough measurements.

When making clothes, they try to make them loose and large.

The meticulous Yi Chichi began measuring her hips, without lifting her head she said, "Isn’t paying attention to detail a good thing?"

"Yes."

Ge Sujuan nodded, "If money weren’t an issue, Old Witch would have come to you too."

"Ask him to come, don’t make it seem like I don’t want to make them for him."

Before leaving the Youth Corps Courtyard, she had made clothes for them before.

"Old Witch says the labor fee is too expensive, he has to save money for our future."

Thinking about the way Wu Yongfei was when she first arrived, Yi Chichi couldn’t help but feel, "Old Witch has grown up and become sensible."

Ge Sujuan chuckled, and Zhou Qiuyu wasn’t doing any better.

Wu Yongfei was indeed quite difficult to deal with before, it’s not surprising Yi Chichi would say so.

The changes now are real, he’s become a responsible man.

"Did he buy the fabric?"

"Yes, he had Xiao Cao’s husband buy it from the city."

"That was thoughtful!"

Yi Chichi noted down the measurements, then patted Ge Sujuan’s shoulder, "Since you’re getting married, pull together like Old Bai and the others to make your days go well."

If your original family isn’t ideal, strive to create a new one.

Have a husband and children, work hard and grow old together, that is happiness too!

"We will!"

Ge Sujuan nodded emphatically, then took out money from her pocket, "How much is the labor fee?"

"Two yuan."

Yi Chichi didn’t refuse the labor fee, nor did she plan to offset it against their wedding gift money.

Business is business, friendship is friendship.

The two should be accounted for separately.

Ge Sujuan quickly counted two yuan and gave it to her, "Make it look nice."

"Rest assured, I will!"

"Then we won’t disturb you further, we’ll head back."

After taking care of business, Ge Sujuan led Zhou Qiuyu in saying goodbye.

Yi Chichi didn’t smoke or drink, but still saw them to the door, saying, "Come visit when it gets warmer."

"Okay!"

The two waved their hands, getting ready to leave, when Wen Shi came out with a paper bag, "Take this back and enjoy a meal."

Ge Sujuan and Zhou Qiuyu paused in surprise, both looking at Yi Chichi.

She smiled, "Take it, it’s nothing extravagant, some seafood Wen Shi brought back."

Wen Shi nodded, "Not much, just to have a taste, to thank you for taking care of my Chichi while I was not home."
