With a Door In Mind

Get up the next morning.

Yang Yuemei has already gone to work.

And Zhou Xiaochuan was woken up by the little guy knocking on the door.

After getting up, I touched the warm quilt, but I still didn't want to get up.

Now he is more and more reluctant to sleep in the space, and he always feels that there is a lack of popularity there.

Especially at home.

So I made my clothes yesterday, and I didn’t sleep in the space when I was so sleepy.

Putting on the down jacket I made yesterday, I feel very warm.

When he came out, what he saw was a vast expanse of white, except for the wall, almost no other colors could be seen.

The little guy was hitting the ice pyramids on the eaves with a bamboo pole.

In the snow on the ground, there are already two or three lying down.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan turn his head away and seeing the clothes Zhou Xiaochuan was wearing, he felt strange for a while: "Brother, what kind of clothes are you wearing? That's weird. Where did you come from?"

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at the clothes on his body, it was indeed a bit strange at this moment.

He made it according to the down style of later generations.

Because there is too much down, it looks like small pieces of tofu.

It is similar to the previous cotton coat, a bit bloated, but slightly better than the cotton coat.

"I put it in my bag and forgot to take it out. Is it ugly?"

Xiaomi came closer and looked left and right, then shook his head, "It looks good, but it looks a little weird."

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled.

This is not surprising, the rise of a thing always takes time to adjust.

Then he turned around and went back to the room, and took out another one he made last night.

As for Yang Yuemei and the others, we'll talk about it later.

"Here, try it!"

Seeing a black dress handed over by Zhou Xiaochuan,

Xiaomi was surprised for a while.

"Brother, is this for me? This is much prettier than yours."

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, nonsense, his is a short style, and the little guy's is a long style, the kind that can cover the buttocks.

That is the kind of half-length in later generations.

It's a bit like the military coat at this time, but it's not so long.

And he only put eight taels of duck down inside. It doesn't look so bulky that way.

After putting it on, Xiaomi felt the warmth on her body and said happily, "Brother, this one is warmer than that rabbit fur one, and it's so light."

After finishing speaking, she smiled and said, "Where's the mother? Is there any?"

"Nonsense, as long as you can think of it, I can't think of it? By the way, does it smell like duck droppings?"

Hearing this, Xiaomi put his head and face into his clothes and sniffed it vigorously, "It's okay! A little bit, it's not very strong."

After finishing speaking, I felt strange for a while, "Why does this smell like duck droppings? Isn't it made of cotton?"

"No, isn't that what Grandpa Zhao said when he came yesterday?"

Xiaomi heard the words and said, "Oh, don't understand."

Then he smiled and said, "It's okay, this one is so warm, if it doesn't work, I'll spray some toilet water on it."

"That's fine. Try wearing it for a while."

The little guy nodded when he heard the words, ran into the snow with a smile, picked up the ice pyramid, and sucked it in his mouth.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan burst into sweat!

"Hey, can you talk about hygiene? How old are you still doing this?"

Xiaomi smiled when he heard the words, "What's so unclean here, it's all frozen by the rain!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled at him, "Brother, make me another slide! There is a lot of snow today."

There is indeed a lot of snow today, which is close to the knee position.

There was only one deep footprint of Yang Yuemei's, which stretched all the way to the gate of the courtyard.

"Get it yourself! You have nothing to do!"

Xiaomi curled her lips when she heard this, "Hmph, if I want to know, I want you to do it!"

"You didn't see what I did that day! Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running? I think you are lazy."

"I can do it! I want to make a snowman."

After finishing speaking, she really picked up the shovel next to her and went to get it.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan didn't go up to help. She had nothing to do, so she just let her play by herself.

No way to do it yourself.

He thought for a while, changed into a pair of rubber shoes, and went out.

"Brother, what are you doing? I'm going too."

Seeing that his brother was about to leave, Xiaomi hurriedly asked.

"I have something to do. Why are you here with such deep snow! Your shoes are all wet. Just stay at home. I'll be back in a while."

After speaking, he lifted his legs and left.

"no!"

Hearing this, Xiaomi hurriedly dropped the shovel in his hand and chased after him.

Fortunately, I was going to play in the snow in the morning, and I had already changed into the rubber shoes, otherwise Zhou Xiaochuan would definitely run away.

Zhou Xiaochuan was speechless for a while.

I really just went out for a stroll and pretended to get some duck feathers back.

Forget it and follow it!

Zhou Xiaochuan pointed to the open main room and courtyard door behind him.

"Can you lock the door!"

Xiaomi heard the words and ran back quickly, locked the door and ran back quickly.

When locking the door, he didn't forget to turn his head away, fearing that Zhou Xiaochuan would run away.

After she ran back again, he took her arm and smiled, "Hey, let's go! Don't want to leave me alone to go out and play."

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at her angrily.

"Nonsense, it's snowing, where can I go to play?"

"How would I know!"

"The shoes will get wet after a while."

"Go back and put it on the stove!"

"Aren't you cold?"

"not cold……"

…………

Two figures, one big and one small, chattering, stepping on the deep snow towards the distance.

When he came to the place, Zhou Xiaomi looked at it and was curious for a while, "Brother, why are you here at the vegetable market? Are you shopping for vegetables?"

Can you keep her from being weird?

In her memory, her brother has never been to the vegetable market.

Zhou Xiaochuan ignored her and walked in directly.

Although it is snowing heavily now, there are still many people inside, most of them are women and old ladies.

In fact, there are not too many families with dual income in the city, less than half of them.

There are still a lot of things sold inside, just because of the lack of green leafy vegetables in winter.

But there are still many other things.

Some sell tofu, and some sell chicken and duck eggs. There are also places that sell dry goods such as black fungus and bamboo shoots.

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look.

Good guy, black fungus is really expensive, 8.2 a catty.

He really didn't expect this.

Look beyond the other places and find a place that sells duck.

There is a big lake next to Feishi City, where there are farms and ducks, so unlike other places, only big festivals (Spring Festival, May 1st, National Day) can be given a certain amount every year.

The amount is not much, and there will be a little every once in a while.

They all have to come early in the morning to grab them.

But he didn't come to buy ducks, he just bought some duck feathers.

When he came to the place, he froze for a moment.

A young guy and an aunt were killing ducks there, and a four or five-year-old boy was playing there!

Two women were standing in front of them, waiting.

The problem is that he seems to know the man who killed the duck.

He hesitated for a moment, then called softly, "Liu Guoping?"

Hearing what he said, the other party raised his head, but the action of plucking hair with boiling water in his hand didn't stop.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan, he hesitated, "Squad leader?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "I thought I was mistaken! Why are you here?"

The other party was not the best relationship with him at that time.

But at least three years together in junior high school.

Hearing his words, the other party was surprised,

"Oh, it's really you... I thought I was wrong... I did my mother's work! She went home to take the child!"

"What about your wife?"

"My daughter-in-law also has a job."

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised when he heard the words, "Oh, you are doing well!"

Seeing this, Liu Guoping smiled, "It's okay!"

Then he looked at Xiaomi next to him, and said with a smile, "Is this your sister?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded.

"Oh, you've grown so big!"

The two were talking, and someone beside them was dissatisfied.

Urging on the side.

"Hey, comrade, can you hurry up! I have something to do when I go back, and someone is here."

When two people talk, the speed of the other party will definitely slow down.

Before Liu Guoping could speak, the woman next to him said dissatisfiedly, "If you don't have time, go back and leave it to others."

Hearing what she said, the other party shut up conveniently.

Liu Guoping said to the duck buyer, "It will be ready soon."

Then he smiled at Zhou Xiaochuan and said, "Wait a minute, it will be fine soon."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

He and Xiaomi stood next to each other.

Liu Guoping quickly took off the duck feather in his hand and put it in the opponent's basket.

He handed another bowl of duck blood to the other party.

Wait for the other party to leave.

He washed his hands, and then smiled at Zhou Xiaochuan: "Why are you here? Are you buying ducks? Today's ones are gone. If you want, come tomorrow, and I'll keep them for you."

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head, "No, actually I want to get some duck feathers!"

Liu Guoping was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why do you want that thing?"

At this time, the feathers of chickens and ducks have no other use except as feather dusters or as fertilizers.

"Get some back to the kennel!"

Liu Guoping snorted when he heard the words, "It's okay, I'll get you as much as you want."

At this time, many people bought chickens and ducks at home without killing them, and took them home with them, so no one cares about this stuff.

Only regular people come to collect.

Less is okay.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan took out a bag and handed it to him.

Liu Guoping grabbed a large pile of chicken and duck feathers and handed it to him, "It's a bit wet, just go back and dry it."

"Thank you!"

Zhou Xiaochuan took the things and thanked him.

"Hey, why are you so polite! Next time if you want to buy ducks, tell me in advance, and I'll keep them for you!"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

The two chatted there for a while, talking about their life in junior high school.

Zhou Xiaochuan also talked about his situation.

Liu Guoping sighed, "Tell me, why didn't you go to college when you had such good grades back then! Otherwise, among us, you must be a leader, and the best one now is probably Li Dazhuang. !"

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan's heart moved, "Where does he work now?"

Among the best friends in middle school and high school, only Chu Yanyan and Li Dazhuang had the best relationship with him.

"Oh, that kid is in charge of the Agricultural Bank of China, and now he is the group leader of the GW Club."

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised when he heard this, hey, not bad!

The supervisor at this time, the next step is the president of the branch.

After all, college students are cadres at this time!

Once there is a position, it is a leader.

"Bingbing, don't play with that, smelly! Come and call uncle."

Liu Guoping yelled at the little guy next to him picking up duck poop with a stick.

The other party stopped playing when he heard that he threw the stick.

He called Zhou Xiaochuan uncle.

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised, and looked at Liu Guoping, "This...your child?"

The other party said with a smile: "Yes, my family, boss, isn't this here to play! There is a small one at home."

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan let out a cry.

Good guy, how old is the other party! It seems to be smaller than myself!

22 or 23?

The children are all this old?

Liu Guoping smiled at him, "What about you! How old is the child?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled awkwardly, "Not married yet!"

Then he changed the subject, "Is Da Zhuang married?"

"Married, the child seems to be 1 year old! I heard him say it last year!"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

The two chatted for a while, and he left with Xiaomi.

Walking on the road, Xiaomi said cheerfully: "Brother, look at your classmate, he is about the same age as you! The child can use soy sauce, what about my sister-in-law? Look at you, sister Yanyan and sister Xiaoxiao used to be both Is it good? Regret it now!"

Zhou Xiaochuan heard that he really wanted to hit her on the head.

But the little guy probably knew he was going to be beaten, so he ran away.

The two returned home happily.

Back home, he threw a pile of duck feathers to the side under the eaves.

The little guy was surprised when he saw this, "Brother, you got so many duck feathers, why do you just leave them here?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

"Yeah, if someone asks, you just say you don't know!"

Xiaomi let out a cry when he heard this.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought of Li Dazhuang mentioned by Liu Guoping today, and thought that it would be great if there were relatives in the family who could work in the bank.

After the change, if he gets some investment from the outside, he will definitely make the other party take off.

Every year the tasks are exceeded.

Looking at Xiaomi next to him, he shook his head.

She has her own schedule.

Forget it, it's still early anyway, when the little guy grows up, we'll see what she likes.

If it really doesn't work, after Xiaohe changes jobs, he can find a way to push him.

But there is no rush.

Thinking of this, he calculated the time, the little guy only had four or five days to go to school.

The little guy goes to school, and there is nothing wrong with being alone.

The Shanglin production team will come back as soon as possible after they go back, and they can get Zhao Qingqing back later if they have time, there is no need to wait until the end of the year.

After going out for a while, it's like playing, but after a long time, it becomes a bit boring.

It's still good at home!

Thinking of this, he went to cook.

In the afternoon, he was so entangled that he couldn't help it, so he took the little guy to make a slide outside.

When Yang Yuemei came back at night, she saw Zhou Xiaochuan's clothes were strange for a while.

But after so many years, I'm used to this kind of thing.

"This is the down jacket you and your grandfather Zhao talked about?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, "Yes! Don't beat it when you wash it."

Yang Yuemei let out a soft sigh when she heard the words.

Nor did she say anything about not having her clothes on.

It took several days for Zhou Xiaochuan to give her the clothes.

And explain, if Grandpa Zhao asks, he will say that you don't know anything.

Yang Yuemei nodded upon hearing this.

But I still look blank, I don't know anything at all!

Seeing her expression, Zhou Xiaochuan patted his forehead.

never mind.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

This afternoon, Zhou Xiaochuan was visiting a department store with Xiaomi to buy some things for school.

Because the little one is going to school tomorrow.

With Xiao He as a shield with a high salary, he has much less scruples about shopping.

Finished school bags, stationery, bought a lot of things.

Back home, the little guy was there happily, organizing things for school tomorrow.

He went to make glutinous rice balls.

Black sesame glutinous rice balls.

I didn't put too much sugar in it. I loved to eat when I was short of sugar when I was a child, but I don't like it very much now.

too tired.

I cooked some more and prepared to send it to Zhao Qinian later.

But he hasn't waited for it to cook yet!

Zhao Qinian came over by bicycle.

As soon as the car stopped, he yelled, "Little bastard, you have something, but you didn't give it to me when I came that day, so we spent so many days thinking about it."

Zhou Xiaochuan was speechless for a while when he heard the words, so I have to be able to do it!

"Nonsense, I just received my clothes, okay?"

"Then you didn't say it earlier?"

"You never asked!"

Hearing his words, Zhao Qinian blew his beard and stared angrily.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled, "Don't be angry if you are old. It happens that the glutinous rice balls will be ready soon, so eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls."

Zhao Qinian glanced at him angrily when he heard the words, "Take off your clothes first, show me!"

Zhou Xiaochuan shrugged his shoulders.

Perhaps if Yang Yuemei hadn't been a woman, her down jacket would have been contributed.

But he didn't take off his clothes, and took three clothes out of the room.

"Well, one is yours, one is Granny Zhao's, and the other is for you to study. But you have to return this cloth to me. Don't return me the defective cloth. As for the down inside, it's a I contributed."

All three garments were made of defective cloth.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he feels this kind of appropriate point.

Zhao Qinian took it and ignored him, so he didn't believe that Zhou Xiaochuan didn't tell him.

All three are very thick down.

Then he took out his own one, made gestures, and then took off his padded jacket.

He shivered from the cold air.

Then hurriedly put on the down jacket.

After Zhao Qinian put it on, he tried it on, and after a while, his eyes lit up.

"Damn, it's really warm!"

Then he asked Zhou Xiaochuan strangely: "How did you come up with the idea to do this! You have a good brain!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "Grandpa Zhao, the chicken and duck didn't wear clothes, and I didn't see them freeze to death! Didn't I just think that the duck's fluff can keep warm? And because cotton is so nervous, the duck Mao doesn’t want money! It happened that my classmate was killing ducks. I tried to make a few.”

This sentence was not explained to Zhao Qinian, but to others.

Zhao Qinian nodded when he heard the words, "Then how do you get rid of the smell of duck down? I think the smell is very weak!"

"Oh, it's soaked in washing powder."

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, he fell into deep thought.

This method will definitely not work in mass production.

Seeing his expression, Zhou Xiaochuan knew what he was thinking, so he said with a smile: "Grandpa Zhao, you don't need to bother so much. If you have any questions, find the leader! The Bureau of Light Industry must have a solution. After a few experiments Will it come out next time?"

The chemical industry in this era is considered to be a start, but it is not without it. There are two fertilizer factories.

Some cheap chemical raw materials can be tried a few times.

Zhao Qinian's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"Okay, I'll try it tomorrow. I've got the sewing machine and the people. I'm worried about this!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was speechless for a while.

Emotional Zhao Qinian is ready!

He even came here to complain.

"Grandpa Zhao, you are doing it too fast! How do you deal with the duck feathers? What if you get so many employees over here?"

Zhao Qinian waved it when he heard the words, "It's okay, I borrowed the sewing machine from the garment factory. I bought ten sets first, and made a few hundred pieces. If there is an order, we can just buy it ourselves. As for the employees, they are all themselves. I found it in the factory."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

These days, many people are reluctant to buy finished clothes. It is not an exaggeration to say that every household can make clothes.

It's just good or bad craftsmanship.

Many of the people inside are still very good at their craftsmanship!

"Is the time coming up in time? And if there is a batch, how do you get the duck down?"

"Almost, it's only February now, and there are still more than two months to go. It shouldn't be a problem to get a few hundred pieces. At first, we couldn't think of anything to bring out, and we planned to delay until the autumn show, but now we have changed our minds. This thing is worn in winter, so if you participate in autumn, if there is an order, it will be too late before winter. When it is ready, everyone will have passed the winter."

After Zhao Qinian finished speaking, he said cheerfully: "As for the duck down issue you mentioned, we don't need to worry about it. If there is really an order, just like what you said, we must find a leader! The Bureau of Light Industry is in charge. Coordinate with major farms in the province."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words. Indeed, as long as the pattern is fixed and the raw materials are sufficient, hundreds of clothes can be finished in less than half a month.

But he is still worried, what if there is no order? Will it be criticized!

Hearing his words, Zhao Qinian smiled, "It's okay, didn't you say it's okay?"

Zhou Xiaochuan rolled his eyes upon hearing this.

But then don't worry about it anymore.

Attending the Canton Fair these years, there are a sea of ​​factories that do nothing, and the whole of Huizhou is not a factory participating, at most it is just a few words of scolding, there will be no major problems.

And he is very confident.

As for the reason, it is naturally cheap.

Unbelievably cheap.

According to the calculation of materials and labor, the cost will not exceed 2 yuan, and it is possible to sell each piece for 5 or 6 yuan.

Compare the current exchange rate.

Converted into m yuan, it is about 2 yuan.

What kind of concept is this? One day's salary is enough to change one piece every day for a month.

And based on his guess, in order to earn foreign exchange, the price offered may be ridiculously low.

Since there is no problem, he is relieved.

"Okay, I have nothing to do, let's go first."

Seeing that Zhao Qinian was about to leave, he smiled and said: "Wait a minute! I made glutinous rice balls and I was going to send them to you. I won't go there after you come."

After finishing speaking, he went back to the kitchen and filled a lunch box full of glutinous rice balls and handed it to Zhao Qinian.

Zhao Qinian took the lunch box and left on his bike.

－－－－－Off Topic－－－－－

In 1966, in the local price records of Tianjin, the purchase price of dried fungus was 6 yuan, and the selling price was 8.2 yuan.
