The small room was filled with heat. Even if the electric fan was turned on, the hot air would be blown out.
Zhao Jingmei and Liu Ye, regardless of sweat, worked enthusiastically with the idea of making more money and buying a house earlier.
At about one o'clock, Feng Xiuqin and Zhao Dagang went home for a lunch break, and what they saw were the two busy sisters.
Seeing that the two of them were working hard, he advised them to rest.
But both of them said "not tired".
When it was two o'clock, Zhao Jingmei rushed to the No. 3 Textile Factory for the afternoon shift.
Feng Xiuqin and Zhao Dagang also went out together and returned to their respective jobs.
As for Liuye, she was still stepping on the sewing machine quickly.
The sound of "click, click, click" almost never stopped.
Accompanied by a "clicking" sound, more and more hairpins are accumulating.
Because Zhao Jingmei brought back too many clips, Liu Ye could not finish them all at once.
So, she selected some of each kind.
Straight-edge clips and duckbill clips are the fastest to decorate, as long as you add some small decorations.
As for the spring clip, Liuye put a lot of thought into it.
Spring clips were very popular headwear in the 1980s.
Both young and old women like to use it.
They usually half-tie their hair with spring clips, with half of their hair tied up and half hanging on their shoulders. They are very elegant and charming.
Even in later generations, this hairstyle has never gone out of style.
However, the spring clips of this era were very ugly.
Like the hairpins Liuye saw at New World Department Store, they are directly inlaid with a plastic acrylic plate on the metal clip.
Willow leaves, which have been influenced by the aesthetics of later generations, are very disdainful.
In later generations, people almost made hairpins into flowers.
The various shapes are dazzling.
Because time was tight and she had to rush to Huating Road to sell hairpins in the evening, Liuye didn't have time to make those hairpins with complicated shapes, but only made a few of the most common and simple styles.
But Liu Ye is confident that these styles alone can surprise everyone.
For an afternoon, Liuye didn't stop for even a second except for drinking water and going to the toilet.
At the end, her hands were so sore that she stopped.
After Liu Ye hammered her arm, she counted the hairpins and hair ties she had made.
There are a total of sixty hair clips, including forty-five straight clips and fifteen spring clips.
As for the easier-to-make hair ties, Liu Ye actually made ninety-seven of them in one go.
Liu Ye has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Since we have already made ninety-seven, let’s just scrape together and make a hundred.
Therefore, Willow Leaf's final results were sixty hairpins and one hundred hair ties.
After counting, Liu Ye looked up at the clock on the wall.
It's already ten past six.
It’s almost time for Zhao Jingmei to come back!
Just when Liu Ye was thinking about it, she found that the door was opened.
Those who walked in were Feng Xiuqin and Zhao Jingmei.
When Zhao Jingmei came home from get off work, she happened to meet Feng Xiuqin in front of Tongzi Tower, and the mother and daughter went home together.
"Ye Zi, how are you doing?"
Zhao Jingmei rushed home as soon as she got off work. The distance that usually took more than ten minutes was completed in eight minutes.
She couldn't wait to know how many hairpins and hair ties Liuye made in one afternoon.
"Sixty hairpins and a hundred hair ties."
Liu Ye smiled at her and said lightly.
"That's great! That's great! Ye Zi, you are so great."
Upon hearing this number, Zhao Jingmei's eyes began to shine.
"Yi Zi, you are working too hard. Why have you done so much?"
Compared to Zhao Jingmei's joy, Feng Xiuqin felt more distressed.
"Well~~ I don't have much to do at home anyway, so I have nothing to do. I might as well make more hairpins!"
Liu Ye desperately wants to earn enough money to buy a commercial house.
It was really unbearable for her to have five people squeeze into a small room of 20 square meters.
She didn't pay attention to her son's hard work.
I remember that in order to catch up on the publicity plan, she stayed up for four consecutive nights before getting the director's nod.
Nowadays, it is just making some hairpins and hair ties, which is nothing compared to the promotion plan back then.
"You young people are motivated, which is a good thing, but you can't wear your body down."
Feng Xiuqin frowned and said to Liu Ye very seriously.
This child is already malnourished. If he is exhausted, he will definitely fall ill.
"I know...Auntie...I will pay attention to it in the future..."
After being scolded by Feng Xiuqin, Liu Ye felt very happy.
Before time travel, Liu Ye was an orphan without a family and had never felt any family affection.
Now Feng Xiuqin's lessons have made her realize the care and love she has never felt before.
"Okay, it's been a hard day, let's have dinner! After dinner, go to Huating Road early."
Zhao Jingmei and Liu Ye were going to Huating Road to sell things. As soon as Feng Xiuqin got off work, she ran to the canteen and prepared meals for the two girls.
"Thank you, aunt!"
Liu Ye smiled sweetly at Feng Xiuqin, and Feng Xiuqin's heart melted.
In order to start early, both girls ate very quickly and finished their food in a short time.
The devouring attitude made Feng Xiuqin frown.
The girl's family eats harder than the men who work hard. It's really ugly.
But when I thought that the two of them were rushing to Huating Road early, I felt a little heartbroken.
"Yi Zi, let's go!"
After Zhao Jingmei finished her meal quickly, she wiped her mouth and greeted Liu Ye.
"Cousin, wait! I want to tie your hair before I go."
Zhao Jingmei was eager to set off, but Liu Ye ran to get a comb.
"Why are you tying your hair? We are in a hurry!"
"Cousin, I will tie up your hair and put my newly made hairpin on it. Then everyone can see it, and you will become a moving advertisement!"
"Oh, that's a good idea! You're so smart."
As soon as Liu Ye mentioned it, Zhao Jingmei praised him repeatedly.
"Come on, sit down and I'll tie up your hair."
Liu Ye waved, and Zhao Jingmei sat down obediently.
The ingenious Liu Ye gave Zhao Jingmei a princess head in less than five minutes.
This hairstyle is improved on the basis of half-tied hair.
Zhao Jingmei's hair was thick and shiny, and Liu Ye had braided her hair into two small braids, one on the left and one on the right.
Then fix the braid in the middle of the back of the head and pin the burgundy bow spring clip.
Her loose hair was held down by two braids and hung softly. Zhao Jingmei looked extremely gentle and lovely.
The embellishment of hairpins adds a touch of bright color.
“It’s so beautiful!”
Feng Xiuqin saw Zhao Jingmei's new hairstyle and sighed in a low voice.
She had never thought that her daughter, Zha Zahuhu, could look like such a lady.
