    ?

    The next day was a sunny day, and the sun outside was shining brightly on the snow.  Zhang Hongmei had just finished her breakfast when Li Cuihua came over, still holding her needle awl, thimble, and a ball of hemp rope.

    "Hongmei, have you eaten yet?"

    Zhang Hongmei said in her heart that I ate three meals, how can I not eat now that it is past eight o'clock?  "I'm full, and I cleaned everything up. Are you feeling better today, San Niang?"

    "I'm fine. I was too lazy to move yesterday. I'm not sick."

    "Hehe, that's right, how can my third daughter get sick if she is strong?"

    "The stinky girl laughed at me, okay. Let's get the soles out quickly, it takes a lot of work. If you don't have the strength to pull out the soles, you can't help but wear them."

    The two entered the room, Zhang Hongmei wanted to light a candle, Li Cuihua stopped her, "I don't know how to live, and it doesn't need to be so bright, I save the wax for reading later."

    "Let's click on it, otherwise I won't be able to see clearly what San Niang is doing."

    "It's just a tight seam and it will be hit. If you are afraid that the weaving will go away, fix the top and bottom first, sew a few stitches and then sew a circle, it will be easy to accept. Just look at it, that's it." Li Cuihua said first.  Sewing the needle, Zhang Hongmei can see the thick pinholes of the big needle stubble without turning on the lamp.

    "Third Mother, is the hemp rope strong?"

    "Can you try to pull it off?" Zhang Hongmei didn't pull it at all with both hands, and her hands were still red.

    "This hemp rope has been twisted several strands, and it is strong, not worse than thread rope." After Li Cuihua finished speaking, she put on a thimble and began to sew. Zhang Hongmei didn't follow along, but just watched, but this is really difficult to make.  , It is said that using a needle awl to pierce through the six layers of weaving feels pain in the hand, and after passing the needle through, you have to grab the hemp rope with your hands and pull it tightly, and the stitches have to be pulled into the weaving.  Zhang Hongmei took a look at her slightly fleshy hands and then retreated.  "Miss Sanfang, does your hand hurt?"

    "Why doesn't it hurt? Just get used to it. I was bleeding when I first learned how to put on the soles of my shoes."

    "Third Mother, you had really strong hands when you were young. You can fit the soles of your shoes."

    "What's the matter? Isn't that holding your breath? My grandma doesn't care about me. My cousin is one year older than me, but my grandma regards her as her heart, and teaches us how to make shoes together. She just keeps praising her and belittling her."  At that time, I was too young to be angry, so I felt that I had to be better than her. I didn't know that I was better than her, but the job of making shoes was all mine."

    "Third Mother, is there still this time?"

    "Hey, I don't think it's worth it when I think about it. I don't need people who don't care about me to say, it was too stupid at that time. My mother said I was not happy. So Hongmei, you must remember people.  Live for yourself."

    "Remember San Niang, even if someone asks me to serve, it depends on whether I like it or not."

    "That's the reason. If you don't pay attention to people who don't like you, you will win." Li Cuihua continued to work on her hands, sewed the sole around the edge, and then made a second one.

    "Let me come, Three Great Mothers. I'll see."

    "I'll sew this side. After a while, you will follow Na and hit it. You will hit it when you see it. You are young and your bones are not yet ready. I am afraid that your hands will be deformed when the soles of your shoes are finished. Your eldest sister and second sister, I will do it now."  They don¡¯t need to clean the soles of their shoes, but they know how to do it, and they can do it with their hands when they live their lives.¡±

    "It's still my third mother who loves me."

    "It depends on your kindness." Li Cuihua sewed the second one in her hand.  Zhang Hongmei picked it up and felt that she should be able to do it.

    "This one is for you. Look at it. You have to start from the beginning. The denser the stitches, the more impervious they are. But it's impossible if the hemp rope is too thick. It's just based on feeling." Li Cuihua said while accepting.

    Zhang Hongmei took the needle awl and stabbed it hard but couldn't get it in. After seeing that Li Cuihua's needle awl might be faster than her own, she tried it and couldn't get it in.  Li Cuihua looked at it and smiled, "I won, put it down quickly, don't bother, I'll pay for it for you, wait until you get married and start studying."

    Zhang Hongmei is also very helpless, the sole must have at least 30 pieces of cloth stacked together, and there is still paste inside.

    "Third Mother, you also rest and work. This is really hard work. My mother didn't find it difficult before. Even now, watching you do it is very easy. Why can't I do it?"

    "You are still young, and you don't know how to use force with your hands. It's not just about using force, you have to use ingenuity. If you hit it, don't play tricks. I'll put it in quickly, or a pair of shoes can be handled by the two of us."  , when the time comes, it will be troublesome if you go up and down, so go read a book."

    "San Niang is eating at my house at noon. I made noodles in the morning. Let's eat steamed buns with vegetables."

      "I'm not going to eat at your house. I haven't given you the trough cake yet. How can I have the nerve to eat a child's food?"

    "I'm out of touch, right? We are the only ones who are so clear about the division? I eat less food alone, and I have enough food."

    "That's not right, you three mothers, I can't bear it, the trough cake you gave yesterday came back and your third master said me, but I didn't send it back to you after I took it, but you can't show me in the future,  I should take care of you."

    What should Zhang Hongmei think in her heart?  It's not my own parents, but people from the two worlds.  So Zhang Hongmei knew the relationship between Liu Maocai and his wife very well.  But what Li Cuihua said was right, she was still a child, so she acted too directly and made others think too much.  I will pay attention to it in the future, and the favor can be returned in the future when the opportunity arises.  There is no rush.

    "Third Mother, I now have three meals a day, do you think I have gained weight?"

    "You are the only one who still grows flesh? I think you have grown taller, like a stick of firewood."

    "I'm really fat. You'll know when you take off your cotton padded clothes. I'm going to grow fat."

    "Hehe, you are the only one who is still fat? Pull you down, even if I am fat, you won't be able to gain weight." The two joked and joked.

    At noon, Li Cuihua didn't stay for dinner, and Zhang Hongmei didn't bother to bother, and still steamed sugar buns. This kind of food nourishes people, and it is the most nourishing food for Zhang Hongmei now.  Thinking about the sweet potatoes in the cellar, I thought I should ask Li Cuihua whether she should prepare the sweet potato seedlings this year or not?  If you prepare it by yourself, keep it. If you can find someone to replace it like last year, then steam half of the sweet potatoes, cut them and dry them.  The cold noodles with sweet potato noodles that my mother made when I was a child are very delicious.

    Thinking of the possibility of drought next year, I feel that it is better to keep the sweet potatoes. I have cultivated more sweet potato seedlings, and plan to plant more sweet potatoes this year. It is drought-resistant and will not reduce production much.  Even if you can't eat it, you can still change things. If the history goes the same way, you can still find good things.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
