Liu Ye looked at Zhao Jingmei who looked surprised in a funny way.
"Yes! That's great! This hairpin is so beautiful, much prettier than the hairpins from New World Department Store!"
Sure enough, you have to compare and throw away.
I have never seen hairpins made of willow leaves before. Zhao Jingmei thinks that the hairpins sold in New World Department Store are the latest, most fashionable and most beautiful.
Now when I compare those hairpins with the ones I have on my hand, I realize that they are really ugly.
"Ye Zi, I bought this hairpin!"
Zhao Jingmei looked directly at the mirror and pinned the hairpin on her head happily.
Just as he was about to take money out of his pocket, he was stopped by Liu Ye.
"Cousin, what are you doing! We are a family, can I still ask you to pay? This hairpin is given to you!"
"Okay, then I'll accept it!"
Zhao Jingmei was not polite to Liu Ye either.
"Cousin, let me make you another hair tie!"
Liu Ye looked at Zhao Jingmei's long black hair, which was tied into a long shoulder-high ponytail, and felt envious.
I don’t know when my yellow hair will turn black.
"Hair ring?"
"Yes, I will make you a large intestine hair tie."
With that said, Liu Ye took out a small piece of wide-edge rubber band directly from the drawer of the sewing machine.
"What is a large intestine hair tie?"
Zhao Jingmei asked Liu Ye doubtfully.
"It just looks like a large intestine!"
Liuye explained casually.
"Would that look good?"
Zhao Jingmei frowned when she mentioned the large intestine. What should it look like?
She couldn't imagine it.
"You'll find out later!"
Liu Ye and Zhao Jingmei chatted, their hands moving non-stop.
She has made many hair accessories such as large intestine hair ties before, and she is the most proficient in them.
Nowadays, there are sewing machines, which can get twice the result with half the effort.
Liu Ye chose a light green rag with white flowers on it.
First use a sewing machine to lock the edge, then stuff the rubber band in, and finally sew the joint with a hidden needle. In a few minutes, a cute and simple large intestine hair tie is ready.
"Yi Zi, your hands are so skillful! They're so pretty!"
Zhao Jingmei stared at the light green hair tie in Liu Ye's hand, marveling repeatedly.
"Cousin, this is for you!"
Liu Ye handed it to Zhao Jingmei, who directly wrapped the hair tie twice around the high ponytail.
After looking left and right in front of the mirror for a long time, he ran out again, held his head high, and proudly asked Feng Xiuqin, who was still cooking: "Mom, take a look, does it look good?"
"Hey! Did you buy this at New World Department Store? It's so beautiful!"
Feng Xiuqin looked at the hair tie on Zhao Jingmei's head curiously.
"Ye Zi made it for me!"
"Made of leaves? Didn't she want to make hairpins? Why did she make hair ties again?"
Feng Xiuqin was very surprised.
"Yi Zi's hands are really good. Not only can she make hairpins, but she can also make hair ties, and they are very beautiful! You see, this hairpin was also made by her just now."
Zhao Jingmei proudly showed the hairpin pinned to one side to Feng Xiuqin.
“It’s indeed beautiful!”
I never thought that Liuye would have such ability!
"Auntie, this hairpin is made for you!"
While mother and daughter were chatting, Liuye made another hairpin.
This hairpin style is very simple.
Just use a satin rag and wrap it around the bare duckbill clip.
Although simple, it has a different sense of high-end and luxury.
In layman's terms, it just looks expensive.
It is just suitable for women of Feng Xiuqin's age.
"Do I have one too?"
Feng Xiuqin was very surprised.
"Of course, how could I forget my aunt! Come on, aunt, I'll help you get up there!"
Liu Ye called her aunt, calling her so affectionately that Feng Xiuqin's eyes almost doubled with laughter.
Liu Ye clamped the hairpin she had just made on Feng Xiuqin's broken hair hanging from her forehead.
"Does it look good?"
Feng Xiuqin brushed the strands of hair beside her ears and asked in a low voice.
"nice!"
"nice!"
Liu Ye and Zhao Jingmei said in unison.
"Hey, why are you all crowded here? It's so hot, go in and blow on the fan!"
Zhao Dagang wandered up the stairs carrying a bottle of cold beer, and happened to see the three women at home standing in the corridor with beaming smiles.
"Dad! Look what's different about mom!"
Zhao Jingmei pushed Feng Xiuqin to Zhao Dagang and asked loudly.
"Huh? Xiuqin, your hairpin is very pretty!"
Zhao Dagang noticed the hairpin on Feng Xiuqin's head at a glance.
"Ye Zi made it specially for me!"
Feng Xiuqin touched the hairpin and said happily.
"Can leaves also be used to make hairpins?"
Zhao Dagang was also surprised.
"Yes! Ye Zi said that she would make hairpins and sell them."
Zhao Jingmei told Liu Ye's plan without any concealment.
"I think it will work! No one will dislike such a beautiful hairpin."
Feng Xiuqin was the first to agree.
"Where are you going to sell it?"
Compared to Feng Xiuqin's blind optimism, Zhao Dagang's considerations were more practical.
Where should such gadgets be sold?
"I heard from my cousin that there is a street dedicated to selling clothes on Huating Road. I want to sell there."
Willow Ye has already made a plan.
"Cousin, that's a place that sells clothes. Isn't it appropriate for you to sell hairpins?"
Zhao Jingsong was somewhat disapproving.
"It is precisely because everyone goes there to buy clothes that I go to Huating Road to sell hairpins. Think about it, if you buy new clothes, do you want to match them with new headwear?"
"That makes sense! Just go to Huating Road."
Zhao Dagang nodded.
"Ye Zi, when are you going? I'll go with you!"
Zhao Jingmei can't wait to sell hairpins with Liu Ye.
"I'll go too, I'll go too!"
Zhao Jingsong is not far behind.
"I'll go there in the afternoon after I finish making the hairpin."
Liu Ye is a person with strong execution ability. He makes up his mind and takes action quickly.
Just decorate the dozens of hairpins with rags and sell them.
"Then go ahead and do it! I'll help you cut off the threads on the rag."
Zhao Jingmei urged and volunteered for help.
"Stop it, it's time to have lunch, let's get busy after lunch!"
Feng Xiuqin interrupted the excited people while holding the freshly cooked dishes.
…
After lunch, Liuye became busy again.
Zhao Jingmei helped her and cut off the threads from the rags.
Zhao Jingsong was sitting with nothing to do and joined their team.
Liuye's hands are very dexterous and fast. She finished the forty hairpins in less than an hour.
It was still early, so Liu Ye simply used the remaining rag strips and rubber bands to make more than twenty large intestine hair ties.
By three-thirty in the afternoon, Liuye had made forty-eight hairpins and twenty-five hair ties.
Zhao Jingmei took a small cloth bag and put all the hairpins and hair ties in it.
Then, the three of them set off towards Huating Road.
