Mother Feng thought it must be because there were so many people that there was no job.Now that Lin Manfu mentioned it herself, she became even more irritable.

"Auntie, I'll go back first."

Lin Manfu sighed as she walked, looking very embarrassed.

"Girl of the Lin family, you give the job to our family Feng Dan. If they dare to say no to you, I will deal with them."

Mother Feng didn't give up, she trotted beside Lin Manfu, talking with a playful smile.

"Auntie, do you think it's possible?" Lin Manfu glanced at her expressionlessly.

"Then I'll go to them first and tell them, if they agree, then we will live for Feng Dan."

Mother Feng's face also collapsed, instead of continuing to chase Lin Manfu, she looked at her back and muttered something.

Lin Manfu raised her lips and smiled, and didn't answer Feng's mother, nor did she directly refuse, just to whet their appetite and watch their five families quarrel with each other, that's all.

Sometimes when you are wronged, hitting back directly is not the most relieved.To be able to leave a lifetime of shadow on those who once bullied you is called relief.

Back at Lin’s house, the water cellar has been filled with water. Install the pumping tool made by Hanzhou City. Just lift the water pump up slightly, and the water will flow out along the pipe made of aluminum in Hanzhou City. .

Mother Lin put a basin to catch water under the pipe. After all, the yard is made of mud. If it gets wet, it will look dirty.

"This thing is really convenient."

"This water cellar can last for a month at least."

The neighbors who watched nodded repeatedly, wishing that the water cellar in their home could be used as soon as possible.

"Uncle Han, this thing didn't come from a strong wind. Don't say you don't want our money. If you pump water once a month, it won't be in vain."

As Lin Manfu said that, she took out the money from her pocket and handed it to Father Han in front of everyone.

In front of these people, she is a child who has not grown up yet.Even she knew that the water pump should not be used in vain. After that, the villagers would definitely consciously give money to Father Han.

"Manman is right, you can take the money."

The villagers also booed, and Father Han smiled embarrassedly, knowing that Lin Manfu did this on purpose, so he took the money: "We are all from the village, and I don't take your money. But the water pump is If there is wear and tear, pump a cellar of water down, plus electricity and water pump money, a total of [-] cents."

This price was negotiated with Hanzhou City before, and Father Han returned the [-] cents to Lin Manfu.

Lin Manfu took the money and smiled: "Thirty cents is really not much. Every day I go to the potter's wheel to fetch water, my back is sore from exhaustion, and the cost of plaster is more than thirty cents."

Everyone also joked and followed Father Han to fetch water for Xingying's house.

Lin Manfu didn't follow along to join in the fun, and ran to the kitchen to look at the pigskins being tanned.

Although the soaking time of pig skin is a few days later than that of donkey skin, the pig skin is fresh and soft, so the tanning time does not need to be so long.

"It smells so bad."

When Lin Manhui and Lin Manling came back from school, they saw Lin Manfu cleaning the pigskin, covered their noses and frowned and said, "Sister, we just came from our hometown, and we were arguing again, and even the folks who helped build the roof were quarreled. Drive away."

For two days in a row, Lao Lin's house began to quarrel from time to time, and the neighbors were bored to the core.

Occasionally there is a quarrel, and everyone will watch the fun.But I quarreled several times a day, and I got tired of listening to it, and felt even more noisy and flustered.

"They can't make a fuss about it."

Lin Manfu was expressionless and shook her head disapprovingly.Lao Lin's family couldn't calm down for a while, after all, it's hard for an upright official to break up housework.

This matter is very difficult, and the old village chief will definitely not come forward, so he can only wait to see who will compromise first.

But no matter who compromises first, brothers Lin Mancang and Lin Manliang, their reputations are already well known, and even if they live in a blue brick house, no one is willing to marry them.

Early the next morning, Lin Manfu ran to the old village head to borrow the donkey cart of the village collective, and troubled Father Han to follow her to the county seat.

When the first sewing machine in Hongmiao Village was transported to the Lin family, it attracted the attention of all the women.

They were excited, and what they even showed was not jealousy and envy, but joy and gratitude from the bottom of their hearts.

You know, there are a total of eight or nine villages in the entire township, and people in other villages have already bought sewing machines.

Clothes sewn by hand are definitely not as good as sewing machines.They will also take some formal clothes to other villages, and spend one or two cents to borrow their sewing machines.

Now that Hongmiao Village has its own sewing machines, even if they spend the same amount of money, at least they don't have to travel far.

"Whoever you use a sewing machine from now on, come to my house. Naturally, people from our village have a cheaper price than people from other villages. Their [-] cents does not include thread. Our sewing machine costs [-] cents for a piece of clothing, including thread."

Lin Manfu raised the bag in her hand, and she went to the black market to buy threads of various colors.But in this era, there are mostly black and white clothes, so the most prepared ones are black and white and red threads.

The wearing parts of old-fashioned sewing machines are mainly belts, and the rest of the accessories are basically not broken. This kind of thing gets better the more it is used, and it is not good if it is left idle for a long time.

So Lin Manfu encouraged Mother Lin to rent out the sewing machines.

"Lanfen, manman, you two are really nice."

"It's convenient for us to go down, and it's so cheap."

The villagers surrounded Mother Lin and kept singing their praises, not to mention other things, just to say that there are so many colored threads, which they are usually reluctant to prepare.

Lin Manfu looked at Mother Lin surrounded by villagers and smiled warmly.

"Sister, are you making skirts for us?"

Lin Manling happily followed Lin Manfu, watching her take out a stack of fabrics from the cabinet, and smiled flatteringly.

"That's right, I've prepared it for you a long time ago, but I haven't had time to do it."

Lin Manfu nodded and found out the skirts cut for the two of them.Considering the inconvenience of wearing a skirt to school, safety pants are specially designed inside.

In addition to the skirts of their sisters, there are also new clothes that Chuan Chuan promised to make
The folks couldn't care less about flattering Lin's mother, and they all watched Lin Manfu use the sewing machine in style.

"It's so pretty." Lin Manling tried on the skirt, and instantly felt like a little princess.

She ran towards the alley while circling, wishing that her little friends could all take a look at her new dress.

After a while, several little girls ran over, pestering their families for skirts.

"How much fabric is wasted with so many pleated skirts."

"Pants are good. You can wear long johns in spring and autumn. When it's hot, just roll up the trousers."
