Compared to the clothes he bought himself, the clothes he bought lacked a bit of effort.
In her previous life, she had delivered packages through all kinds of storms. As long as she could wear clothes, it was enough to keep her warm. His salary of five to six thousand yuan was barely enough to make a living after paying the mortgage. He did not want to delay others. He did not want to get married, so he did not pay much attention to his image. He bought his clothes casually online.
But now, he had a sense of anticipation for this set of clothes. It was the same feeling as when he wore new clothes during the New Year when he was young.
A middle-aged woman nodded and said," It's alright. I know what I'm doing. I'll make it a little bigger and wear loose clothes."”
Yi Guoqu felt a little uncomfortable and smiled." Auntie, just do as you see fit. I don't know anything about this anyway."”
Nowadays, buying clothes required a cloth ticket, which was 24 feet per person per year.
In the past, Yi Guoqu also had a ticket in the village, but it was difficult to even fill his stomach. It was all changed into rice. Whoever got a ticket would be given a few meals.
Twenty-four feet might not sound like a lot, but a shirt required seven feet of cloth. Yi Guoqu's size would definitely require more. Every household calculated their use. A middle-aged woman was now using the couple's own clothes to make clothes for him.
Moreover, the clothes were light industrial fabrics. Anything with industrial properties was expensive. Now, he did not know what cloth to use to make clothes for him. It was difficult to say the exact price.
However, a shirt from the supply and marketing cooperative cost six yuan, and a pair of socks cost more than one yuan. Three years of new, three years of old, and three years of sewing and mending.
It would definitely be cheaper if he made it himself, but the things he sold now were all honest, so it couldn't be much cheaper.
Upon hearing Yi Guoqu's words, a middle-aged woman subconsciously smiled. Such a trusting attitude really made people feel comfortable. It felt like she was her own child.
"Let's go, let's stroll around the streets. You've never been to the city before, so I'll bring you around this time.”
Yi Guoqu said obediently," Thank you, Auntie.”
The two of them walked out of the door. A middle-aged woman closed the door and led Yi Guoqu out.
At this time, most people were honest, and only a few were sneaking around. Now that no one had locked their homes, it was not a problem to say that the door was not closed and that no one was picked up on the road.
There was no one in the courtyard, and there was no sound from the Jia family. No one knew where Silly Zhu was, so the two of them came to the front yard.
Coincidentally, Yan Bugui, who was in the west wing of the front yard, was standing behind his small fence. He bent over and looked at a succulent plant seriously, as if he was thinking about why it was evergreen all year round.
Just as the auntie was about to introduce him, Yi Guoqu shouted," Hello, Third Master!”
His voice was like thunder in spring. Third Uncle was so scared that he staggered. He bent over and stroked his chest. After he calmed down, he said," Aiyo, are you trying to scare me to death?”
Third Uncle rolled his eyes and said," Aunt Yi, your nephew's voice is really loud. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's roaring like thunder. However, you should keep your voice down in the future. It's so scary!”
A middle-aged woman pursed her lips and snickered. She had been shocked a few times before, but she definitely could not gloat. Instead, she explained on Yi Guoqu's behalf," His voice is like this. Even if he lowered his voice, it was similar to ours." "But Third Master, I haven't even introduced him yet, and the child is already talking. That means he remembers you. He should be happy.”
Third Uncle narrowed his eyes and nodded. He bent down and patted his thigh. He licked his face and asked," Yes, yes, yes. Are you going out?”
A middle-aged woman smiled and said," The child is old. He can't stay in the village all the time. He has a future in the city. This time, we're going to let him stay. Isn't my husband arranging a place for him to stay? Previously, Guoqu worked hard in the village and didn't care about his image. This time, I brought him to make some clothes. In a few days, his grandpa will arrange a job for him.”
An auntie was picking the good ones to say. She wanted to leave a good impression on her eldest nephew in the neighbors 'hearts so that they would look up to him.
Reputation was very important at this time. Yi Zhonghai was too surprised before, so he called out Yi Guoqu's nickname in excitement.
Living in this courtyard house, one could see each other everywhere. It was also comfortable to live in it if one had a good relationship with the neighbors.
"Yo, arrange a job? Alright, Old Yi is a Grade 8 fitter in the Rolling Mill. He has the ability.”Third Uncle said sourly. He had coveted the ninety-nine yuan salary many times. Then, he asked with concern," Where is this child living now?”
After saying that, Third Uncle's gaze turned to Yi Guoqu. He looked up and down carefully and could not help but exclaim in his heart,'This kid would definitely be a fierce general in ancient times. He's eight feet tall and has great strength. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His appearance was bold but not fierce. Instead, he looked a little stupid, but he did not look like a stupid person.”
A middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and said," Hai, don't mention it. My eldest nephew is here. My husband is so happy that he doesn't even show his face. He's so mysterious that he doesn't say anything. He's like an old child. He thinks he's so arrogant. Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. I still have to go to many places this afternoon. I'll naturally get familiar with them in the future.”
"Yes, yes, yes. You're busy." Third Uncle smiled as he waved his hand. However, he suddenly staggered again.
Yi Guoqu felt uncomfortable being stared at by him. He shouted loudly," Goodbye, Third Master!”
