Chapter 78 A Life of Eating Meat

"Director, do we have any defective cloth?"

Xia Zhi decided that since she had already owed a favor, she might as well go all the way.

To make these cottons, whether it is a quilt or a cotton coat, cloth is needed.

She couldn't wear the cotton on her body.

"Xiao Xia, you really know how to live. No, I've already married a wife, and I think you're the best candidate for a wife."

This made Xia Zhi blush.

After all, Director Wang was only 28 or 29 years old.

"Director Wang, look at what you said, my sister-in-law must be much better than me, and she knows how to live better than me."

"Okay, don't say anything, there is still a batch of defective cloth in the warehouse, those cloths are wet. The color faded and it's ugly, don't despise this kind of cloth, it's cheaper if you don't deal with it.

There are several pieces, you go and choose."

Director Wang waved his hand, and the warehouse keeper immediately understood and put out all the defective cloth.

In fact, the defective products are partly damp and wet, and partly have threads pulled out or the patterns are asymmetrical.

Xia Zhi and Liu Zhiyan were excitedly choosing these pieces of cloth. Girls are always fond of these things at any time.

Especially in this year, there are fewer ready-made clothes, especially those from supply and marketing cooperatives like theirs.

Most people make their own clothes, and every girl can do it.

A woman who can't make clothes is not a good woman in this era.

The standards of later generations are basically useless here.

The two picked and chose a lot.

Anyway, the director said that these departments don't need cloth coupons, just spend money to buy them, and the price is half cheaper than ordinary cloth.

It's like a big pie in the sky.

Especially these fabrics, the fabrics are very strong, although some places are faded a little and some places have defects.

But if you adjust the position, there should be no problem.

Xia Zhi decided to make a quilt and two mattresses. Although the earthen platform they slept on was covered with straw and mats, one mattress was a bit thin.

Two mattresses were thicker and more comfortable.

If a quilt was made of six pounds of cotton, it would be dry enough. She planned to make a larger quilt, like the double quilts in later generations.

The quilts nowadays were narrow and small, and the back was often exposed when turning over.

The back was frozen after sleeping all night.

She planned to make another set of cotton clothes and cotton pants. There were no down jackets and cotton coats like in later generations.

Even if there were down jackets and cotton coats, they were only available in big cities. For small places like them, don’t even think about it.

Except for factories, cotton coats for ordinary people basically did not exist. They were all cotton jackets with a blouse on the outside.

Although cotton pants were bloated, they were cold-resistant in this era.

The cotton coat and trousers Xia Zhi wore were as thin as paper because they had been worn for many years.

When he first came out, he was wrapped in a bundle, and no one could tell that it was a set of cotton coat and trousers.

Xia Zhi felt warm in his heart, and he could make a cotton coat, and then two pairs of cotton trousers.

Cotton hats and cotton gloves, this is a must.

I didn't see that my ears were a little frostbitten from sweeping snow these two days.

Thinking of how Zhou Zhengan had helped him so much, giving him a quilt and picking up his food on the road, no matter from which aspect, he owed Zhou Zhengan a big favor.

When Xia Zhi chose the cloth, he specially chose a set of cloth for Zhou Zhengan.

Zhou Zhengan usually has a uniform for the unit, so he definitely doesn't need other clothes, but it shouldn't be a problem to have a set of casual clothes for replacement occasionally.

This gray cloth is suitable for Zhou Zhengan. If it is made into a Zhongshan suit, Zhou Zhengan will definitely look abstinent and cool when wearing it.

Actually, Zhou Zhengan is a really good-looking person. If you don’t see it, you can always see the hygienists and broadcasters running to Zhou Zhengan’s brigade headquarters when you go there.

But he always has a stern face, otherwise he should be more popular.

Later, the two of them discussed and bought all the cloth.

Anyway, it’s not very expensive. It’s estimated that everyone will share it after returning, and each person will not get much.

They both looked jealous. Let alone others, those female educated youths saw it. Wouldn’t they want to make clothes?

This time they earned their own money.

There was no time to discuss, and they directly loaded all the cloth, waste cotton and their next batch of materials into the car.

Zhou Zhengan looked at the two female educated youths who had added so many things in a short time, and couldn’t help shaking his head. These women are like this.

It seems that his mother is also like this when she goes out. Once she arrives at the supply and marketing cooperative, she will buy a lot of things to take back.

It seems that women are all the same.

When they go back, they are very fast.

When they arrived at the educated youth point, all the educated youth came out to help distribute the materials back to their respective dugouts.

They also helped Xia Zhi and the others move the two sacks of waste cotton and the cloth into the dugout.

Zhou Zhengan helped Xia Zhi carry his backpack and the things into the dugout.

When they were about to leave, Xia Zhi whispered to Zhou Zhengan.

"Don't forget to come over for dinner tonight. I'll make leek dumplings tonight."

"How about making dumplings?"

Zhou Zhengan stuffed a bag in his hand into Xia Zhi's hand.

"There are five pounds of pork in it."

"When did you get the pork?"

Xia Zhi's voice was lowered, her face was filled with surprise and joy, and her eyes were as round as a kitten's.

Zhou Zhengan's eyebrows were curved.

"I told Lao Wang last time and asked him to find a way to get rid of it for me. This time he got it. It's not easy to get rid of. After all, most of us in the reclamation area eat beef and mutton.

I can only secretly leave it for you in the cafeteria. There is nothing I can do. It will probably make everyone unhappy. "

"By the way, Lao Wang can get me a big piece of beef in two days.

It is estimated to be more than ten kilograms. Let’s come back and make beef stew later. "

Zhou Zhengan has never eaten beef seriously.

"The Chinese New Year is in one month. When the beef comes back, half of it will be stewed into beef, and the other half can be stewed into beef cubes.

It's also good to make beef noodles, and it's also delicious to make braised beef with potatoes. "

Xia Zhi also drooled a little when he heard this.

"By the way, you saw that big fish, come over tomorrow to eat it, and invite Vice Captain Jiang to come too, otherwise you'll say I'm partial every time you see me.

I feel like I favor one over the other.

I will cook boiled fish for you tomorrow. It will definitely taste the way you like. "

Zhou Zhengan's face turned cold when he heard that Jiang Yifan actually made this request.

"Don't worry about him. I'm leaving now. I'll come over and eat dumplings later."

Zhou Zhengan had a straight face as usual and led the people away in a serious manner.
