Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 174: Helping Out

The scissors used for tailoring are much larger than regular household scissors, and much heavier, too.

Pei Jing just tried another pair of scissors earlier, those big scissors he couldn’t even lift, let alone use them to cut fabric.

Now, watching Jiang Ran use them with such ease, he thought Jiang Ran was really amazing.

Jiang Ran knew that in the eyes of children, parents are very capable, so upon hearing Pei Jing’s words, she just patted Pei Jing’s little head.

Looking up at the clock on the wall and seeing the hour hand pointing at eight, Jiang Ran asked Pei Jing, "Little Jing, are you sleepy? If you are, go home and sleep first."

"Then when is mom coming back?" Pei Jing asked with big blinking eyes.

Before Jiang Ran could answer, Pei Jing added, "It’s so dark outside, won’t mom be scared to come back alone?"

Even though she knew this was Pei Jing caring about her, Jiang Ran couldn’t help but want to laugh at the question.

She was so grown-up, how could she still be afraid of the dark?

Just as Jiang Ran was about to speak, Pei Huai spoke before her, "Don’t worry, Little Jing, after I take you back, I’ll come back to pick up mom. Go home and sleep well with auntie, okay?"

"Okay!"

Pei Jing agreed, nodding earnestly, "I will listen to auntie well, dad doesn’t have to worry about me, just come back to pick up mom."

Pei Jing’s voice was soft and gentle, and although he spoke slowly, each word was clear, allowing people to easily understand him.

Precisely because she understood, Jiang Ran wanted to laugh even more.

She was so grown-up, did she really need someone to pick her up?

Besides, it’s just a ten-minute walk; she could practically walk it with her eyes closed!

But Jiang Ran had no chance to refuse.

Pei Huai directly picked up Pei Jing, "I’ll take Little Jing home first, you don’t need to come out. I’ll lock the door from the outside and come back to pick you up."

With that, Pei Huai headed towards the door with large strides.

Pei Jing lay on Pei Huai’s shoulder, one arm around Pei Huai’s neck, the other waving at Jiang Ran, "Goodbye, mom."

Almost as soon as Pei Jing finished speaking, Pei Huai had already walked out carrying him.

Jiang Ran, "..."

Oh well, let him be.

Jiang Ran lowered her head and set aside the fabric she had just cut, continuing with a new round of cutting.

Compared to using a sewing machine to sew clothes, cutting is more time-consuming and labor-intensive, and also requires more skill.

Jiang Ran planned to do the cutting herself and have Xia Qiufang and the others make the clothes tomorrow.

So, tonight, she had to cut out all the orders.

With the new store opening, it was essential to leave a good impression on the customers; they couldn’t delay orders right from the start and let people think they were untrustworthy.

Once Jiang Ran got busy, she lost track of time.

It wasn’t until she heard approaching footsteps that she looked up.

The person walking in was none other than Pei Huai.

Seeing Pei Huai, Jiang Ran wasn’t surprised; she just took another glance at the clock.

It was only half-past eight, still early.

Jiang Ran thought she should be able to finish cutting all the clothes from the orders tonight.

Thinking this, Jiang Ran lowered her head and continued working.

Pei Huai watched Jiang Ran busily start again and didn’t interrupt her, just helped categorize and organize the fabric she had cut.

With Pei Huai helping to organize, Jiang Ran did indeed save a lot of effort, and her efficiency greatly improved.
