Chapter 47 The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (47)

"Yinyin, what are you going to do with these cloths? Your Aunt Fen came here just now. She saw it and wanted to tear it off a few feet. Do you want to sell it?"

Mother Xus high voice came from the main room.

"Sell!" Xu Yin opened the door curtain and walked out of the room, "The Tongcheng Cloth Factory sold the defective cloth at a special price, but I looked carefully and the defects are not very obvious."

"If you don't tell me, I haven't noticed that this is a defective cloth."

Xu's mother lowered her head and took a closer look, and then she saw that the color was unevenly dyed, or there were a few missing stitches. Such flaws were not much different from regular fabrics.

Your Aunt Fen wants to make two monk clothes for her one-month-old great-grandson, and also wants to make a skirt for her youngest granddaughter. She fell in love with these colors. How much per meter will you give her?

If Aunt Fen wants it, just one dollar and two.

"So cheap?" Xu's mother was surprised, "This is flowery foreign cloth. The cheapest one in a cloth store costs three or four yuan. Such a flaw cannot be seen on the body. Are you sure you can't sell it for one yuan or two?" deficit?"

Xu Yin told her that it was twenty yuan a piece, and each piece was thirty meters long.

Through this calculation, Xus mother regretted that she only gave her daughter fifty yuan.

If you give me more, wouldnt you be able to bring back a few more pieces of cloth?

Xu Yin looked at her mother's expression and couldn't help but laugh: "Mom, defective cloths are not so easy to snatch. Just these few pieces, my sister-in-law and I went to the wholesale market several times."

Mother Xu no longer felt upset, she lowered her head and looked at the pieces of cloth, decisively picked out two good-looking ones, and carried them into her house:

These two pieces are kept for your dowry. It would be a pity to sell such cheap and beautiful cloth to others!

Xu Yin:

Finally, after much talk, she finally persuaded her mother to take out the defective cloth, which should be sold and made into clothes.

What are you doing with it? Even if she gets married in the future, will she still be short of a few pieces of defective cloth for her dowry? Really!

By the time Xu Yin's rice is harvested into the barn and the fields are plowed, she has almost sold out all the cloth, wool and cashmere threads wholesaled from Tongcheng.

For the rest, she plans to knit a pair of sweaters and pants for each of her parents before school starts.

Those who bought defective cloth did not take it home and asked Xu Yin to make clothes directly.

This one in and one out can make a lot of money.

Xu Yin made some rough calculations and found that by the time school starts in September, the living expenses for the first school year will be stable.

After finishing fertilizing the fields, the family began to plant rice seedlings. Her task was to go to the farm to pick up the scheduled fish fry.

Now, she has become a regular visitor to the farm.

Several of the doormen knew her:

I know that she was once a student of the No. 6 Middle School and was recommended to the University of Washington;

Knowing that the rice fish raised in her home for three months are plumper and more tender than those raised on the farm for a year;

Knowing that the watermelons grown at her home are being competed for by the Melon Seed Optimization Research Institute, which is a treatment that farm watermelons do not get;

I also know that she is an expert at tractor plowing. She can plow faster and better than Master Yu and other masters...

She has so many honors that it is difficult not to recognize her.

Xu Yin calmly parked the electric donkey despite being stared at all the way, picked up a pickled duck, and went straight to the director's office.

Comrade Xiao Xu is here?

When the field director saw her, he smiled and pointed to the sofa chair beside him, motioning for her to sit down.

Come right here, why are you still carrying something?

My brother sent it from Tongcheng. Its a specialty there. Steam it and cut it into pieces. Its good for rice. You can take it back and try it.

The field manager accepted it with a few polite words.

"You came just in time. The research institute called me in the morning for the balance payment for your batch of watermelons. I also asked Lao Yu to take some time to go to Xujiacun and deliver it to your family. Since you are here, it won't be a bother. Lao Yu, this is the payment receipt, just go to the finance department to get it later."

Xu Yin took the payment form and glanced at it, oh, the balance is 500 yuan. In other words, the watermelons on her two acres of land were sold for one thousand yuan. What is the concept?

Her family's watermelon harvest from two acres of land is around 15,000 kilograms, which works out to six cents and six cents per catty. This year's unified purchase price of watermelons is two cents and five cents. In other words, her watermelons are one cent more expensive than the market price. More than twice as much.

Is the price a bit high?

Even though she has confidence in her own watermelons, she is also a little unsure about how to handle them.

"Don't worry, haha." The director smiled and said, "My classmate said that your watermelon is the best variety he has seen all over the country, so it is not only the money for the watermelon, but also the money for the seeds, so it is worth it. This price."

Then Xu Yin was relieved.

She went to the Finance Department to get the money, and then went straight to the breeding lake to get fry.

Master Yus tractor happened to be out of service recently, so he borrowed it to transport the fry home.

Most of the people in the village were planting rice in the fields. When they saw her driving the tractor back, they all straightened up and watched the tractor move closer and further away.

Families who were close to the paddy fields of old Xu's family asked Xu's mother across the ridges:

Jinhua, where did you buy your fish fry? I heard that Dajiaos fish fry were bought from the Chengnan Reservoir, and the price is not cheap.

Xus mother raised her chin proudly: My daughter found them all by running around, Im only responsible for paying.

Your family is really filial and filial.

Not only filial, but also capable.

Xu Yin didnt know that her mother was showing off to her again.

After planting the fish fry, I drove the tractor to the dry land at the foot of the mountain and plowed the two acres of land that had been cleared of watermelon vines.

Fertilize for two days, then plant cabbage and radish.

The dead vegetable leaves are just used to fertilize the fields, and we can continue to plant watermelons after winter.

Another acre of late-maturing watermelon will be harvested next month, and the carrots and overwintering peppers will be planted.

She has prepared the seeds for Father Xu.

After finishing the work in the field, she returned the tractor. When she got home, it was almost evening and she quickly started making dinner.

Uncle, aunt and two experts in rice transplanting from the village were all invited to help, otherwise they would not be able to finish all the rice planting in one day. Of course, we must leave them to eat before leaving.

Xu Yin was willing to use ingredients when cooking. She cut fresh mutton and stewed potatoes, cut a duck into chunks and stewed tea tree mushrooms, and fried some seasonal vegetables picked from the fields.

Xus mother came back early to prepare meals, but saw that the dining table was already full of dishes.

"This...Yinyin, did you do this?" Xu's mother was shocked.

Her daughter can cook? Why didn't she know?

Well, I learned it from my sister-in-law when I was in Tongcheng.

"What? Is your sister-in-law harsh on you? She makes you cook three meals a day?"

Looking at him, he seemed ready to rush to Tongcheng to settle the score with his daughter-in-law.

Xu Yin didnt know whether to laugh or cry: Mom, I want to learn it myself. No, once I learn it, I can make it for you and dad at home.

"But"

"What the hell! You wash your hands, I'll call dad and they come to eat."

What are you shouting for? They will come back after inserting the rest.

Mother Xu glanced at the dishes on the table with a sour look. At this sight, she almost clutched her chest and cried out: "This prodigal girl, one meat dish is not enough, but three!"

Mom, our watermelon balance has been collected at 500 yuan. Xu Yin took out the money with a smile.

The towel in Xus mothers hand fell off.
