The tough life of a beautiful educated young girl from the 1970s who married a rough man

After breakfast the next day, Shen Zhiwei took out two pieces of blue cloth from the space, carried a basket to Aunt Huang's house in the village, and asked her to help make clothes.

Aunt Huang is over 60 years old. She lost her husband in her early years. Her husband never came back after going to the battlefield. She had only three daughters. They all married in nearby villages when they grew up, and they could only visit her during the holidays.

The days passed desertedly.

In Tianling Village, they are included in the Five Guarantees households.

Aunt Huang is proficient in garment making and sewing. In the early years, she was the long-term embroidery mother of the landlord's family. Her three daughters got married and collected a gift to buy a sewing machine for the old mother to earn some pocket money.

The industry price for making a set of clothes is two yuan.

For families without sewing machines in the village, Aunt Huang will be entrusted with making clothes for the bride and groom when they get married.

She made it with care, no waste of materials, solid stitches, and a good reputation.

When Shen Zhiwei arrived at the door of Aunt Huang's house, he heard the sound of the sewing machine being kicked inside.

She knocked on the door and asked loudly, "Aunt Huang, are you home?"

"Hey, here we are."

Aunt Huang stopped her work, walked out of the room, saw that it was Shen Zhiwei, and warmly greeted him, "It's Shen Zhiqing, come in and sit down."

"Aunt Huang, I want to ask you to make two clothes for me."

Shen Zhiwei took out two pieces of fabric.

He also took out four yuan from his pocket.

"Shen Zhiqing, I'm idle even if I'm idle, don't be polite to me."

Aunt Huang refused to accept it.

She is a household with the five guarantees, so she does not have to go to work, and the production team also distributes food to her in a fixed amount. The medical treatment is free, and there are condolences during the New Year and holidays.

Not too bad for money.

For those who are pleasing to the eye, especially poor people ask her to help make clothes, she sometimes does not charge.

A few days ago, when she heard that Shen Zhiwei beat Zhao Dazhu violently, she was in admiration. As a widow, she could understand Shen Zhiqing's resistance very well.

Seeing that Aunt Huang refused to accept the clothing fee, Shen Zhiwei took out a can of malted milk from the basket and handed it to her.

"Aunt Huang, you must accept this can of malted milk. If you don't accept it, I'm embarrassed to ask you to make clothes for me."

"Well, you're too polite, kid."

Aunt Huang accepted it with a smile.

The two walked into her clothing room, and Shen Zhiwei saw a women's red coat being made on the sewing machine, which looked like a wedding dress, and asked casually, "Aunt Huang, you are busy, who is this for?" What about making clothes?"

"It's Zhang Meijuan's wedding dress at the end of the village. This girl is going to marry Shuikou Village after the autumn harvest."

"Oh, that would be a happy event."

"Yes, the girls in our Tianling Village have all married outside, and there are more and more young men who are bachelors. Poor, they have no money to marry a daughter-in-law. They are poor, poor villages in ten miles and eight towns."

Aunt Huang gave Shen Zhi tiny measurements while chatting.

"Shen Zhiqing, you have a really good figure, but you are a little thinner. If you get married in the future, you should pay more attention to your childbirth."

This means that Shen Zhiwei's pelvis is small.

Shen Zhi smiled, "Aunt Huang, I'm still too early to get married, don't worry."

Aunt Huang asked with a smile, "Shen Zhiqing, you also look down on the young people in our village, don't you?"

Shen Zhiwei said euphemistically, "My parents gave birth to me, and I will go back to fulfill my filial piety in the future."

Aunt Huang sighed, "It's not easy for you educated youths, coming all the way from the city to our countryside to suffer..."

Shen Zhiwei hummed, and didn't hurry to leave after taking the measurements, and sat down beside Aunt Huang, "Aunt Huang, do you accept apprentices, I also want to learn how to make clothes."

She still has to stay in Tianling Village for a few more years, so it's not bad to learn a skill.

Aunt Huang happily said:

"Okay, I'm worried that no one wants to learn this skill from me, come on, sit closer, I'll teach you."

Aunt Huang usually stays at home alone and helps others make clothes, which is boring, but now that Shen Zhiwei is willing to come and teach her skills, she is naturally happy to agree.

So, Shen Zhiwei stayed at Aunt Huang's house for a day.

Aunt Huang is willing to teach, from measuring to cutting fabrics, threading the sewing machine, and explaining everything in detail.

Shen Zhiwei listened carefully, and by the time he left in the evening, he had already learned how to step on the sewing machine.

She made an appointment with Aunt Huang to continue studying tomorrow.
