《(MTL)I am the ex-wife of the cannon fodder in the chronology [80]》Chapter 35

Before Li Yumei came, Li Yulan had already decided on the storefront of the tailor shop.

The children at home were still young, and Li Yulan didn't want to be too far from home, so the store was chosen on a lively old street not far from home.

After Li Yulan and Li Yumei went to clean up the store these few days, the repairs that should be repaired and the repairs were finally cleaned up in a decent manner.

Because it is a tailor shop, the sewing machines that are necessary to make clothes have also been brought in.

At the same time, Li Yulan also asked a woodworker to order a large cloth cutting table, and went to the cloth market to buy a batch of cloth suitable for making clothes to hang in the shop.

When shopping at the fabric market, Li Yulan found that there were several plastic models in a store.

Plastic mannequins are not common these days, and can only be seen in some large department stores.

As for ordinary tailors, most of them directly cut out the human figure from cardboard, and then hang the clothes to display. The effect is naturally not as good as that of plastic models.

Therefore, Li Yulan was moved when she saw that there were plastic models for sale here.

Although the price was a bit expensive, Li Yulan still bought two.

When Li Yumei saw that her sister's tailor shop had not yet opened, she spent a lot of money like running water, and couldn't help but stunned.

What if this is a loss?

So, Li Yumei couldn't help but persuade: "Xiaolan, it's almost all right, you have already bought a lot of things."

Li Yulan looked at it and seemed to have purchased a lot, so she had no choice but to accept it regretfully.

The day before the custom-made tailor's plaque was delivered, Li Yumei suddenly said to Li Yulan, "Xiao Lan, I want to take Xiao Mo and move to the tailor's shop."

Li Yulan frowned when she heard this: "I don't live at home. Are you all right?"

"I can't bother you all the time." Li Yumei said softly, tucking her hair behind her ears.

Li Yulan's willingness to take in their mother and daughter is already a great love. Li Yumei is grateful, but she does not take it for granted.

The younger sister's family has their own life, and it is not a problem that she has been living in their house as an older sister.

Li Yumei has had this idea of ​​moving out for a long time, but she has no money.

Although she brought a sum of money with her when she escaped from the small county town, it was not enough to put the money in S city.

The loan that Jiang Mo went to school was still paid by Li Yulan, so Li Yumei didn't know when she would be able to pay it back.

Therefore, Li Yumei has been very uneasy in her heart.

The shop Li Yulan rented was on an old street.

This old street has a long history, and many merchants have been doing business here since ancient times. For the convenience of doing business, people can live behind the shops here.

When Li Yumei was helping Li Yulan to clean up, she had the idea of ​​moving in.

Living here with my daughter, I can not only feel more at ease, but also help Li Yulan see the store, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

But Li Yulan still disagreed. How could she live in a good house and let her sister and niece live in this dark and narrow shop?

It's just that Li Yumei's attitude is very firm, and she has to move over no matter what.

The two sisters tugged for a while,

Li Yulan knew her sister's temperament, and finally sighed and reluctantly agreed. However, she tidied up the shop's occupant's room and added some things to make them as comfortable as possible.

And Li Yumei brought Jiang Mo over quickly.

In the evening, the mother and daughter were lying on the bed of the small house. Li Yumei asked Jiang Mo, "Xiao Mo, do you blame your mother for bringing you here from your aunt's house to live here?"

The small house at the back of the shop and the lake view of Li Yulan's house Compared with the elevator room, it is simply a world of difference.

The windows of Li Yulan's house are bright and clean, high-end and convenient; and this small house is dark and damp, and there is no sunlight all year round, even their previous home in the small county town can't compare.

Jiang Mo hugged Li Yumei's waist, shook her head and said, "I don't blame my mother, as long as I am with my mother, I will be very happy."

Jiang Mo feels that her life after coming to S City is simply the best thing she has ever grown up to. Happy days! There are no terrible grandparents, grandparents, fathers and grandmothers here. Even if she lives in such a small house, she doesn't dislike it. As long as she can be happy with her mother, it is enough.

Li Yumei's eyes were a little sore. She touched Jiang Mo's hair and said softly, "Well, good boy."

...

The next day, the plaque of the tailor's shop was hung up, and Xiaolan's tailor shop officially opened. .

On the first day of opening, Li Yumei was even more nervous than Li Yulan, the owner of the tailor shop.

When Li Yulan came to the store, Li Yumei had already opened the door.

The floor was swept clean, and the various countertops in the store were wiped clean.

The little treasure at home was taken care of by Mrs. Wu. After Li Yulan sent Da Bao to the kindergarten, she stopped by and bought breakfast for Li Yumei on the way.

"Let's eat something." Li Yulan handed the breakfast to Li Yumei.

Li Yumei took it and asked worriedly, "Xiaolan, do you think you can receive business today?"

Li Yulan smiled and said, "I don't know about that."

After speaking, she walked to the cloth cutting table, planning to Keep making clothes.

Last year, she made clothes for Xia Bingbing and her group of girls, which inspired Li Yulan

. In addition to accepting some customized clothes in her tailor shop, she can also design a few clothes and hang them in the shop. If a customer likes it, You can directly make batches according to the mold, which is much more convenient and hassle-free than special customization.

And judging from the momentum of Xia Bingbing's group of girls grabbing clothes last year, the clothes I designed should be pretty good, and someone will buy them if they want.

The shop has been renovated for several days, and the surrounding shopkeepers all know that Li Yulan is a tailor shop, so they came to have a look when it opened today.

In addition to the friendly visits of the surrounding shopkeepers, there were very few customers who came in in the morning, and most of them just glanced in at the door of the shop and left.

Li Yumei was a little restless, but Li Yulan was very calm, still burying her head and making clothes seriously.

Li Yumei became more and more anxious, but she couldn't help but tell Li Yulan, she just hoped that she could have a business today...

Finally, in the afternoon, a woman in her 40s and 50s walked in.

The woman walked around the store and finally stopped in front of the plastic mannequin.

The model is wearing a dress made by Li Yulan. This is a floral dress with dark reddish-brown dots on the beige bottom. The fabric is skin-friendly and soft, with a V-neck design. Go up very beautiful.

The woman touched it with her hand and said, "This dress is not bad."

She thought about her daughter who recently said that she wanted to buy a beautiful dress, but this one is fine.

When Li Yumei saw that the woman wanted to buy it, she immediately greeted her and said with a smile, "This dress was designed by the tailor in our shop. It can't be bought anywhere else. If you need it, we will measure it and make it right away."

"Really? Where are your tailors?" the woman asked with interest.

Li Yumei pointed to Li Yulan, who was immersed in making clothes, and said, "That's our tailor." The

woman had actually seen Li Yulan stepping on a sewing machine over there, but she only regarded Li Yulan as an apprentice in the shop. This time, she heard Li Yumei say Li Yulan When he was a tailor, his face could not hide his surprise.

"Sister, don't be joking." The woman reacted with disbelief on her face, "How can there be such a young and beautiful tailor!"

In women's cognition, which old tailor with good craftsmanship is not an old one, only when he is old can his craftsmanship be honed and he can become a tailor!

"Eldest sister, I really didn't lie to you!" Li Yumei explained, "She made this skirt." The

woman pouted, but still didn't believe it. She was prejudiced to think that even if Li Yulan was really a tailor, she couldn't believe it at such a young age!

"Eldest sister, you can see the quality of this skirt yourself. Look at the stitches, the tailoring, what's wrong with it!" Li Yumei continued.

"I'm afraid you didn't buy this skirt from somewhere else!" The woman insisted on her own opinion, shook her head and walked away, complaining as she left, "Young people these days, they really want to make money and want to go crazy. Lie, tsk tsk tsk."

Li Yumei was furious when she heard the woman's words, but she was gentle by nature and couldn't say anything swearing, so she could only stomp her feet.

Li Yulan put away the tail, shook the finished clothes and said, "Sister, don't be angry."

Li Yulan also heard what the woman said just now, but she was busy with her hands and ignored it.

Li Yulan was not very angry, she was quite young compared to the other old tailors who had been in the past ten years and decades, so it was right that the older generation had prejudice.

But Li Yulan thought about it again, and felt that her target group might not be people the same age as the woman just now, but a younger generation, such as Xia Bingbing, a young group in her twenties.

The older generation is used to living frugally because they have come from hard times, and making clothes for them has to be selective and thankless.

And young groups like Xia Bingbing are different. Their living conditions are much better now. They have wages and money to spend, and they also pursue beauty and fashion. They don't care much about tailoring or stitches when making clothes. These, as long as they look good, are done!

Therefore, it was a good thing that the woman just came in and scolded, at least it made Li Yulan more aware of the future direction of her tailor shop.

But seeing Li Yumei still looking worried, Li Yulan explained to her while ironing the clothes she had just made.

"Tomorrow, let's put the two models outside the store. There will definitely be girls watching." Li Yulan said optimistically.

Today, the main reason is that the clothes haven't been done yet, so they haven't been put out.

"There's no business anyway. Let's close the door early today and go back to eat. We haven't seen Xiaobao for a day. It's weird." Li Yulan said, looking at the sky outside again.

Li Yumei: "..." I

feel like my heart is broken.

The next day, Li Yumei still cleaned the shop early in the morning and opened the door.

Thinking of what Li Yulan said yesterday, and looking at the beautiful clothes on the plastic mannequins, Li Yumei moved the two plastic mannequins to the door of the store.

As time went by slowly, the number of pedestrians on the old street gradually increased.

When people in a hurry pass by the door of the tailor shop, they are all attracted by the plastic mannequins, and they can't help but look back once or twice while they are on their way.

Li Yumei's heart gradually came to an end.

Maybe there will be business today! she thought optimistically.

Just as she was about to turn around and go back to the store, Li Yumei suddenly saw a group of girls in their twenties hurried over on the road, looking a little aggressive.

They were talking to each other as they walked -

"Where is it?"

"It's there! Look at that plaque!"

"..."

Li Yumei's eyebrows jumped when she saw it.

How do you feel, those girls are coming to their storefront? !

Li Yumei's hunch was right, and the group of girls really stopped in front of their tailor shop.

"You have-"

Li Yumei started talking, and she saw the girls staring at the two plastic models at the door... their clothes.

"Wow! Is this new? Look good!"

"I must make this dress, it's so beautiful, isn't this what the heroine in that Hong Kong film wore!"

"Oh, don't squeeze me."

"I'm going, whoever stepped on the old lady's foot, it hurts to death!"

"..."

Li Yumei looked at the group of girls who were surrounded by water, and was stunned.

When she saw Li Yulan walking slowly outside the crowd, she subconsciously called out, "Xiao Lan."

The girls who were rushing to look at the clothes heard the name, turned their heads in unison, and then surrounded Li Yulan again. up.

Immediately afterwards, "Miss Xiaolan", full of emotion, kept ringing one after another.

Li Yumei, who was standing in front of the store blankly: "???"
