Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 88 Old Clothes
"Little Four, wake up."

Early in the morning, Lu Xiaoli came to lift Lu Yange's quilt.

For the past two days, Xiaosi has been writing and drawing. Everyone knew that she was going to a private school, so they didn't ask much.

Yesterday evening, shopkeeper Li sent two assistants to pick up four baskets full of things and send them to Lu's boat.

After the boy left, the mother and daughter of the Lu family were busy till midnight to sort out all the credits.

"Second sister."

Lu Yange looked sleepily at Lu Xiaoli who was kneeling in front of him, "It's so early in the morning, what are you doing..."

Can't you let her sleep for a while?
"It's too early?"

Lu Xiaoli yelled in a high-pitched voice, "Look at the sun drying your ass, are you still sleeping?"

The whole family, only Lu Xiaosi likes to sleep late, and even Xiao Wu gets up earlier than her.

Not to mention the whole family, but in the whole Ye Pier, she has never seen any child who loves to sleep in like her little four.

"Don't call, don't call..."

Lu Yange dragged a thin quilt to cover his eyes, "I'll get up soon, please, my good second sister."

What kind of life is this? If you don’t eat well, you can’t live well, and you can’t sleep late.

She just wanted to sleep all the time, and when she opened her eyes, she was already on the bed in the orphanage.

Even if she was asked to read the book again from the beginning and go through the college entrance examination again, it would be better than suffering and suffering in this era of war and chaos.

Lu Xiaoli also wanted to say, but Lu Xiaoqing, who entered the cabin, twisted his arms and dragged him out: "You can let Xiaosi sleep, and there is nothing else at home, why don't you let her sleep?"

The two sisters left the cabin while talking, leaving Lu Yange lying quietly in the cabin with his head covered.

After a long time, Lu Xiaoyu walked in lightly, and stuffed a warm egg through the gap in the thin quilt.

Lu Yange grabbed the egg and revealed his little furry head from under the quilt: "Where did it come from?"

"Yesterday shopkeeper Li sent someone to deliver over twenty eggs. Mother boiled seven in the morning. Everyone has one for each person."

Lu Xiaoyu had a happy smile on his face, "Xiao Si, do you want to get up and have a look? Mother said she would prepare a return gift for Shopkeeper Li's house, but I don't know what to return."

Now, Lu Yange couldn't fall asleep at all.

Shopkeeper Li not only delivered food, meat and vegetables, and dry goods to the Lu family, but also half-bamboo baskets of dishes and spoons, kitchen knives, iron spatulas, and iron soup spoons... The Li family washed and sorted out old clothes that were ironed and flattened. bedding……

Everything that the Lu family could use, from food and drink to kitchen use, to clothing and clothing, the Li family picked and picked almost all the things that the family didn't plan to take away and sent them to the Lu family.

These things are all leftovers from the Li family or restaurants, and they are old.

For Lu Yange who grew up in the orphanage, he didn't feel that he was being treated poorly by the Li family.

As for the Lu family who are used to living in poverty, they are even more grateful and don't know what to do. These are all good things.

In previous years, it was not uncommon for poor people to buy old clothes from old clothes shops with a little extra money in their hands.

"His father. Shopkeeper Li's family is going back to Yangzhou. We have to return gifts for these things, but..."

Qiu searched at home for half a day, but finally found only pickled salted fish, wild duck eggs marinated in oil, some dried wild vegetables and wild tea.

Although these things seem to be a lot, compared with the things sent by the Li family, they are really worthless!
Lu Yange looked at the three sisters of the Lu family who were holding the old dress of the girl from the Li family, happy for some reason, and then glanced at the Qiu family who was embarrassed by the side.

This favor is indeed not easy to repay, mainly because the family has no money.

Although the family has also earned some money these days, the money from their family is not easy to come by. They bought expensive gifts for shopkeeper Li, but shopkeeper Li may not be happy.

What gift should I give in return?
It should not only cost money, but also suit your heart!
It's hard.

Lu Yange ate an egg and drank half a bowl of wild vegetable paste. Before the sun was too hot, he lay leisurely in the shade of the bow of the boat, listening to the cicadas singing around him.

Mrs. Qiu was arranging the pots and pans sent by the Li family. The three sisters Lu Xiaoqing had just folded and put away the bedding, and now they were sitting next to Lu Yange, taking out the dresses from the bamboo baskets.

"Young lady can wear this jacket..."

"This dress is just right for Xiaoyu..."

"This padded coat must be new cotton floss. It is thick and warm to the touch. When Dong Ri Niang wears it, she won't be afraid of the cold."

"Shopkeeper Li is about the same height as Dad, but stronger than Dad. Sister, do you want to change these clothes for Dad to wear again?"

"No, Dad has to work, so wear something looser and more comfortable."

He heard the chirping voices of his sisters, and Lu Yange closed his eyes and immersed himself in the joy.

The Li family are all daughters, and they don't have clothes suitable for Lu Yange and Lu Xiaowu.

However, this did not bother the three sisters of the Lu family.

Shopkeeper Li's old clothes can still be changed into one or two pieces for Xiao Si to wear, and Xiao Wu is still young. From the old clothes sent by Li's family, it is okay to choose two smaller ones and change them for him to wear.

It's okay to have a brighter color, anyway, Xiao Wu won't refuse because the underwear is a girl's dress.

"Xiao Li, look at this flower, it's really pretty."

"Wow...the flowers look so pretty."

"It should be the new look in Yangzhou. I haven't seen such a good-looking one at the vendor's stall."

The three sisters of the Lu family looked like they were holding a bunch of flowers, their hearts were in full bloom.

Lu Yange glanced sideways, turned over and sat up abruptly, and leaned his head to look: "What's so good about this flower?"

Very common!

"You don't understand." Lu Xiaoli handed the flower shape in his hand to Lu Yange, "Look at this flower shape, the birds and birds on it are well drawn, and the meaning is also good. Look at this again, it's flowers blooming Wealth Map, this is..."

Lu Yangge took the flowers from Lu Xiaoli's hand, and took a closer look at the remaining ones.

Next to my ear was Lu Xiaoli's rambling voice: "The daughters of shopkeeper Li's family are really nice, and even sent us flower patterns. I saw it at the shopkeeper, and an ordinary flower pattern costs five yuan a piece." .It’s so good, why should it be more expensive? It’s a pity that these patterns are wasted for us. It’s not easy for our family to have money to make new clothes. How can we have spare money to buy embroidery threads? Besides, such beautiful patterns Of course, it would look good on a satin dress..."

It would be nice for the children in Ye Wharf to have clothes to wear, and they still wear coarse linen clothes. When will they be able to wear such soft dresses and embroider them with such beautiful patterns!

Before Lu Xiaoli finished speaking, Lu Yange's eyes lit up.

She turned her head and shouted at the busy Qiu family: "Mother, let's give the sisters of the Li family some fancy looks."

She knows more about the appearance of wealth and auspiciousness than she does.

Just give her a charcoal pencil, and she can draw patterns that the sisters of the Li family have never seen before.

Isn't this better than a gift from parents who have spent money and brains?
Yes, you can also draw a few pictures of dresses for the sisters of the Li family. If you can’t afford new dresses to give away, it’s okay to draw a few dresses as gifts.

Lu Yange can't say that he can guarantee that all the sisters of the Li family will be satisfied with his design, but at least it can surprise them enough!
