This meal completely conquered Jin Miao's little heart and made him feel at ease. It seems that this time he is really lucky, met a good man!
Shi Xiaorui also finished eating there. She always chews slowly and eats slowly. When everyone was almost gone, he called Jin Miao over and said to him, "if you say you know how to sew, you can go to ask for some clothes from sister Xia Ying this afternoon. If the clothes are not complicated, can you make a good suit in one afternoon?"
Jin Miao nodded: "yes!"
He is not a young master. His clothes need only be sewn well. In particular, Xinmeng bought the whole cloth in the morning, which is the easiest to cut.
Shi Xiaorui nodded: "that's good. Your task in the afternoon is to make your own clothes first. I've made a small room for you in the yard. After you make your clothes in the afternoon, you can clean up your bedding and take a bath. You can rest at ease this evening. As for what to do in the future, I'll talk about it tomorrow. Do you understand? "
Jin Miao nodded hard: "madam, I understand."
Shi Xiaorui said: "well, if there's any inconvenience, if you can't find me, just ask these sisters. You've seen them just now."
Shi Xiaorui arranged for Jin Miao to work this afternoon, so she went to have a rest. She is also ready to see what Jin Miao can do, so as to make some arrangements for his future.
The work arranged for him this afternoon, in fact, it doesn't matter what he looks like. Shi Xiaorui just wants to see the child's character from the small things and details.
As the saying goes, "looking at the old at the age of three", Jin Miao is already nine years old. If there is anything wrong, it will be seen after a long time. Of course, if Jin Miao is a child who has been in the city since childhood and is good at hiding himself, then Shi Xiaorui will recognize his bad luck. After all, this kind of chance is very small. It's a kind of bad luck to be met by him.
Jin Miao didn't have a rest at noon. It's better to say that he didn't have the habit of taking a nap. When his mother was still there, he was also lively. He didn't have enough time to play every day. Where would he take a nap? When his mother died, he would like to find more work every day, and naturally he would not take a nap.
Moreover, when Xin Meng took him to the small room he was assigned, because he came suddenly, the family didn't expect it, so they made an emergency room for him. There was no extra bed board in the room, so they put two boxes together and let him use them as a bed for the time being. There were three thick beds on them, and Jin Miao pressed them secretly, It's much softer than he used to sleep in the king's house.
The bedclothes are clean, not to mention sleeping on them. Looking at the dust and oil stains on his clothes, Jin Miao refuses to put them on, for fear that he will make the clean bedclothes dirty.
Jin Miao made up his mind to make at least one suit of clothes this afternoon!
Xinmeng helps Jinmiao to make up the bedding, and says to Jinmiao, "it's too late today. I'll make a bed for you at the carpenter's in a few days. It's not decent to sleep on the box."
"No, it's good for me to sleep on the box. The mattress is so thick. It must be very comfortable to sleep," said Jin Miao
He can be more deeply aware of the rising prices in the capital than Xin Meng. Otherwise, Jin Shuan would not be able to wait a day and sell him immediately. It's just that selling one day earlier can save one more day's grain.
Now think about it, Jin Shuan is not so bad. After all, he is not his own son. If he can only keep one, he will certainly choose his own. If things get worse in the future, there will be more parents who sell their children.
"No matter how comfortable it is, the box is not a place to sleep. You can't have only a bed in your room, but the room is a little small, and it's not convenient to add anything," she said with a smile
Jin Miao doesn't know how to answer the phone. He used to be a glib kid, but now he's like a saw mouthed gourd, unable to speak for a long time.
Seeing that he was at a loss, Xinmeng took the initiative to cut off the topic for him: "I'll take the cloth I bought today, and I'll bring you the needle and thread scissors as well. If you want to sew clothes, you can do it at the small table in the yard. The light in your room is too dark, and it hurts your eyes for a long time."
"I'll go with my sister," said Jin Miao
Xin Meng couldn't beat him, so he took everything with his little tail.
Looking at his posture of fiddling with these things, Xinmeng said with a smile, "you really know how to make clothes. It's not bragging."
"As long as I don't embroider, I can do simple hemming and stitching," he said with pride! I made my clothes and my brother's clothes at home! "
Jin Miao said that his younger brother is Jin Shuan's own son Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao is still very small this year. He is only four years old. When Jin Miao's mother married Jin Shuan, Xiao Bao was a little younger and didn't remember anything. He only took Jin Miao's mother as his own mother. The two brothers got along well because Jin Shuan was not very reliable. Usually, Jin Miao took care of Xiao Bao longer, The clothes sold in the clothing store outside are so expensive. Even if you buy them, you can buy them for yourself. The clothes of Jinmiao and Xiaobao are all made by Jinmiao. At the beginning, the leakage of stitching can blow in from the cracks of the clothes, so you have to mend them all the time. Fortunately, after practicing for a few times, Jinmiao is ready to practice.
I don't know what Xiao Bao ate at noon today, but Jin Shuan sold him four Liang silver. Should he have a meat at noon?
Jin Miao thought about some of these things, but the injured action was not slow. He knew his own size and didn't need to open the half piece of cloth completely. He unfolded a rough sketch and was ready to cut the scissors directly.
He was going to make the clothes inside first, so that if the master arranged other work for him in the afternoon, he would not be afraid to stain the bedding if he changed into a new clean one that night.
Xin Meng reminded him: "don't fit too well. Relax a little bit. You are now in the time to grow up. If you eat more good food, you will soon get fat. If you do it too well, it will be troublesome to change it later."
Jin Miao was about to cut the scissors.
Will you be fat soon?
He recalled the delicious meal at noon today. It tasted very good. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't help swallowing even though he was not hungry.
Then I honestly relaxed the waist line and arm size a lot, and I can wear a big dress for a long time at a time, which also saves effort.
Seeing that he was alone, Xin Meng stopped taking a nap at noon and watched Jin Miao make clothes.
