Chapter 18 Eight Zero Best Sister-in-Law (18)
Mother Xu looked at her daughter suspiciously: "Yinyin, tell mom honestly, are you dating someone?"
"No! No!" Xu Yin hurriedly waved her hands, "I just don't want to be the lazy girl they say!"
Mother Xu calmed down: "Everyone really said that?"
Diligence is indeed very important when looking for a wife these days. If a girl has a reputation of being "lazy", it is really not easy to find a partner.
Even if there are people who come to the door, they are crooked.
"Yes! Of course, they all said it behind our backs. Who dares to say it in front of you and my father? I also heard it occasionally. Anyway, I don't want to be called a lazy girl!"
Xu Yin hugged Xu's mother's arm and acted like a baby.
"I still have to take the university entrance exam. If it is recorded in the file, even if I pass the exam, people don't have to admit me."
"Huh? So serious?" Xu's mother was very frightened, "Isn't it just to do less housework, and this should also be recorded in the file?"
Xu Yin nodded with a straight face: "Everything is recorded in the file."
"Then what should we do? Why don't mom praise you for your hard work when you go out in the future, and you will be responsible for all the work your sister-in-law does?"
"That won't work. We have to be honest. The school puts more emphasis on moral education than grades! There are assessments every semester, and they must be recorded in the files. Once you are found to be lying or cheating, not only will your files look bad, but you will also be expelled from school." .”
"Why do you have to record everything?" Mother Xu muttered, after all, she no longer stopped her daughter from doing housework.
Even thinking about finding some housework for my daughter that is easy and can show her face in front of the public.
Xu Yin wiped off her sweat. Brainwashing is also physical work.
After washing the dishes, I went back to the house to tidy up the room, took the piece of seersucker with yellow background and white dots, and went to the sister-in-law's room.
Since there were orders every week, Xu Yin persuaded Xu's mother to move the sewing machine to her brother-in-law's room, and also helped move the furniture so that the sewing machine had an exclusive place with good lighting.
She handed over the refined design drawings to Aunt Xu, who used to ask her a few words, but now she can fully understand it, and started cutting it when she got it.
Xu Yin picked a few old buttons of the same size from the button bowl, and made a flower head with rubber bands and a few pieces of relatively brightly colored rags, which is very suitable for girls aged seven or eight.
"Yinyin, do you know how to do this?"
Mrs. Xu was surprised by her skillful hands.
"This is not difficult."
Xu Yin gave some pointers, and Mrs. Xu would do the same.
Sister-in-law Xu: "It's really not difficult, it's Fei Button."
One head costs six buttons.
Xu Yin smiled and said: "Next time I will go to buy buttons wholesale. If there are small copper buttons and imitation jade buttons, I can also make brooches."
"Brooch? Is it a corsage pinned on the front of the clothes?"
"almost."
Mrs. Xu thought for a while and asked, "Can it be sold with clothes?"
Xu Yin gave her a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law, you are now thinking more and more like a strong woman."
"Strong woman? Who is that?"
"..."
In the next few days, Mrs. Xu still made clothes in her room every day.
Xu Yin was idle and bored, squatting in the yard and started tinkering with her bicycle.
Mother Xu thought at first that her daughter was washing the car, but later found out that she was dismantling the car.
"..."
Opened his mouth and couldn't help but say: "Yinyin, it's a nice bicycle, why are you dismantling it? Didn't you say you were going to grandma's house? Or just go today?"
"No, wait until I think about it."
She couldn't sleep last night, so she simply cleaned up the system warehouse, and saw that the system rewarded an electric bicycle for unlocking the [Intermediate Riding Skill] last time.
This thing can't be used openly at present, but it doesn't prevent her from tinkering with it.
There are drawings, tools, and materials for core components. Even if her hands-on ability is poor, she can practice a few times in the scene simulation environment, and she will be able to start tinkering after practice makes perfect.
However, to be on the safe side, she didn't use the tools and parts provided by the system, but rummaged through boxes and boxes to find all usable waste materials from home.
During the period, I also ran to the county seat.
In order to submit this deliberately old drawing to the country, they racked their brains to make up a reasonable reason.
There used to be a cowshed in the back of the village, where a senior engineer who had stayed abroad lived. Unfortunately, his health was not good, and he died of illness a few years ago. The things that were left were divided among the villagers, and the things that were useless were left to be exposed to the wind and sun.
There are a lot of broken stones in the back mountain. People in the village will go there to pick broken stones when they build houses.
Xu Yin reasoned that she picked it up while picking up rocks, and it looked like something useful.
As a result, the people in the small place didn’t understand, not only refused to accept, but also looked at her with crazy eyes, and finally sent her a sentence:
"You think that the back mountain of yours is a treasure mountain, and everything you dig is a treasure? It's a thing that can't be ignited when it's firewood, and you want to cheat the bonus..."
I had to take it back again.
However, she gained a lot that day. She spent 50 cents at the waste recycling station and found a lot of useful things, but they were still incomplete.
Finally, she dismantled the radio at home behind her parents' backs, and now she has all the pieces together.
Three days later—
"Doudou, come, I will take you out for a stroll."
She hugged Xiaodouding to the rear seat that was modified like a small upholstered chair, and when she kicked her foot, the bicycle slid out of the way effortlessly.
"Wow! You ride so fast!" Xiaodouding clapped her hands happily.
Xu Yin pedaled repeatedly, but in fact she didn't exert any strength at all. With the light on her back and the wind facing her, she finished riding the village road in a few minutes.
Solar electric bikes are really different!
With it, going to grandma's house is easy.
The day before going back to school to get the report, Xu Yin went to her grandmother's house with a big watermelon from her own property.
"Yinyin is here? Come in! In such a hot day, a ride is exhausting enough. Why do you bring a watermelon here? Such a big melon will cost a lot of money, right? Your uncle also planted it this year, but he hasn't grown it yet. cooked."
The temperature in the mountains is low, and the crops mature slowly. The two rattan melons are sold outside, and the first stubble melons on the mountain are only ripe.
"I didn't buy it, but my father planted it himself. The weather has been good these few years, and the food is enough to eat, so my father has freed up some land to grow watermelons. This is not the biggest one. My mother is worried that I will fall down halfway, otherwise I will die." Take the biggest one for grandma to eat."
Grandma Geng smiled from ear to ear: "This one is too big, it weighs almost 20 catties, right? It seems that this year's harvest is good."
"It's not bad. My family will harvest rice in a few days. I went to the field to see that the ears of rice are heavy. One plant can compare with the two in the past."
"It will be cut in a few days? Then ask your uncle to help." Li Axiang said.
Xu Yin nodded.
This is why Mother Xu asked her to come over.
The same is true in previous years. The family has less labor force and relies on relatives to help each other.
It’s also fortunate that my uncle’s field is in the mountains, and it matures half a month later than outside. After finishing the old Xu’s field, I will come to collect my uncle’s field together without delay.
Female compatriots, Happy Goddess' Day!
