1: On the day Xu Junhong came to Baishui Street, the weather was bad and it was drizzling. She pedaled a tricycle, which was loaded with a sewing machine and a stern locking machine. The two machines were covered with plastic cloth. When she lifted the plastic cloth, everyone realized that she was a tailor and wanted to open a shop on Baishui Street. The house she rented was owned by Li Xiangqian. The house was not big, two, one was sleeping in the room, and the other was the store. Before this, the man rented Li Xiangqian's house was a man who sold cooked food. Because he had eaten the food, the man didn't even want his belongings and ran away secretly.
The day after Xu Junhong came, she cleaned up the house, painted the walls, and painted the doors and windows with green paint. In fact, all these jobs were done by Li Xiangqian, and Xu Junhong just helped him. After cleaning up, Li Xiangqian bought a bunch of firecrackers. Xu Junhong disagreed with him to set off firecrackers, but Li Xiangqian still lit the firecrackers. After a crisp crackling sound, the shop was opened. Li Xiangqian sat on the lounge chair at the door of the tailor's shop, greeted the people passing by, and took out a cigarette to smoke for everyone. He said that everyone could make clothes nearby in the future. What kind of clothes sold in the shop is better than the ones!
Li Xiangqian doesn’t pay much attention to wearing it, he is a person who likes to eat. When he was young, in order to taste the taste of Goubuli buns , he made a special trip to Tianjin. Not only did he eat Goubuli buns, but he also brought back two kilograms of Tianjin marijuana flowers. Later, he went to Beijing again and ate a whole Beijing roast duck by himself. He is casual when wearing it, especially in summer. He has a round-toe sweatshirt on his upper body, big shorts on his lower body, and a pair of slippers on his feet. In life, food and clothing are the words he often talks about. People! After all, what's going on is actually just a mouth. For Li Xiangqian, eating is far more important than wearing.
The day after Xu Junhong's tailoring shop opened, Li Xiangqian went to her store and said he wanted to make clothes. Xu Junhong was wiping the sewing machine. When he heard that he wanted to make clothes, he quickly washed his hands and took a tape measure to measure his body. Li Xiangqian stood there a little restrained. This is the first time since his wife passed away that same woman has been so close. After measuring, Xu Junhong asked him if he had the fabric. Li Xiangqian shook his head and said no. Xu Junhong's store has no fabric, she only makes clothes, but she only processes them. Li Xiangqian said, you can get the fabric, so that you can not only earn processing fees, but also earn a little from the fabric. Xu Junhong said that when she used to make clothes, customers brought the fabric themselves and put the fabric in themselves. If the customer missed it, it would be accumulated. Li Xiangqian said, you can go to the market and take a look on the street. You can enter whatever you wear when you wear it in a fashionable way. Li Xiangqian repeatedly encouraged Xu Junhong to get in the fabric, so she went to the market for a walk. When she came back, she used a tricycle to pull back the three rolls of fabric, but she didn't expect it to be sold well.
Xu Junhong is a smart woman. She knows that Li Xiangqian is good to her. Not only she knows, but people on Baishui Street also knows. Li Xiangqian's son is going to college in another place. He lives alone and runs to Xu Junhong's tailor shop every few days. How could anyone not tell what he is thinking? Every time Li Xiangqian came, Xu Junhong would be polite and bought tea specifically. Whenever he came, she would make him a cup of tea, and when she brought it over, she said, "Master Li, drink tea."
Li Xiangqian drank other people's tea, and he couldn't say some jokes, and he became serious. He knew that this woman named Xu Junhong was not simple. Just by being polite, you would be embarrassed to think about something else. Xu Junhong never jokes with people from Baishui Street. She speaks slowly and is polite. When she sees an older person, no matter who it is, she calls her master. Once, Li Xiangqian drank too much and staggered to Xu Junhong's tailoring shop. With the help of alcohol, he spoke much more boldly than usual. Xu Junhong didn't speak, lowered her head, and stomped on the pedals of the sewing machine. Li leaned forward, and when he caught a glimpse of the sharp scissors, he smiled embarrassedly and woke up from alcohol. The scissors seemed to be placed deliberately by Xu Junhong in a conspicuous place. The scissors were sharp, not the ones she used to cut clothes. Li Xiangqian burped and said, "You are busy, I have to go back to bed."
Xu Junhong sent it out and said, Master Li, be careful on the way.
When the wind blew, Li Xiangqian sobered up. He said to himself, this woman is soft on the outside and hard on the inside.
After Li walked forward, Xu Junhong put away the scissors and continued to stumble on the sewing machine pedal. She made a men's top with a round collar, double lace, and the fabric was silk. The buttons of the clothes were made by copper wire, and they were all made by herself. When she made the top and hung the hanger, the eyes of the Baishui Street people suddenly lit up, and then she truly realized her skills. After seeing the top, Li Xiangqian asked Xu Junhong who made it for. Xu Junhong said, Master Li, you said you wanted to make clothes a few days ago. I made one of them, and I don’t know if it’s appropriate. Li Xiangqian grinned and said, "I'll try putting it on."
Xu Junhong said, Master Li, look in the mirror.
Li Xiangqian looked at the mirror, nodded, saying that you did a good job and it was very suitable.
At noon that day, Li Xiangqian wore the double-breasted Chinese top and walked back and forth on Baishui Street twice. When he returned to Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, he said, "Everyone praises you for doing well."
Xu Junhong said, everyone said it was OK, then you should wear it.
Li Xiangqian wanted to pay, but Xu Junhong didn't want it, saying, Master Li, you really want to be sorry, I just deducted the money from the rent.
Li Xiangqian nodded and said it was OK! Good too!
Xu Junhong's business started to become prosperous that day.
Li Xiangqian wore that top, went shopping, went to the mahjong hall, and wore it all day long except sleeping. Li Xiangqian praised Xu Junhong's skills whenever he met everyone, as if he was advertising for Xu Junhong. That day, when Li Xiangqian said this to Lao Hu, who sells spicy hot pot, Lao Hu said, Lao Li! I think Xiao Xu is interested in you. Do I want me to help you break the window paper?
Li Xiangqian said, what window paper? Xiao Xu and I have nothing.
Old Hu smiled and said, "If you say there is no, there will be nothing."
Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu has been in Baishui Street for four years, right?
Lao Hu nodded.
Li Xiangqian said that Xiao Xu and I have been innocent in the past four years.
Lao Hu said, Xiao Xu's man is dead, do you think she can not look for it? She won't just go through this, right?
Li Xiangqian was stunned and said, "Who did you hear?"
Lao Hu said, your brother and sister. That day, your brother and sister asked Xiao Xu, it was Xiao Xu who said her man was dead.
Li Xiangqian said, don’t eat radish salty and worry about it, it’s just that I have that intention, but they don’t have that intention yet. Besides, I am used to living alone and I don’t plan to find it for the rest of my life.
Lao Hu laughed when he heard this, pointed to Li Xiangqian's crotch and said, "You don't want it, it wants it!"
Li Xiangqian said, I want it! Miss your wife.
Lao Hu said, I'm serious.
Li Xiangqian said, I am serious too.
Lao Hu said, think about Xu Junhong, it’s okay, miss my wife, my wife doesn’t pee at your pot.
2: A woman who opens a shop on Baishui Street is helpless, and the second-rate people on the street will inevitably come to cause trouble. There is a man named Ertuzi who is a bachelor. He once went to the tailor shop to think of Xu Junhong's good things. It was raining that day. Ertuzi drank some wine, walked into the store staggeringly, yelling to make clothes. When Xu Junhong saw that he had drunk wine, she said, "Master, let's wait tomorrow." Ertuzi said, I will do it now, why should I wait for tomorrow! Xu Junhong had no choice but to turn her head and measure her body. She couldn't smell the alcohol in Ertuzi's mouth. Ertuzi stood there, but couldn't stand steadily. He shook his body and hugged Xu Junhong's waist with both hands. Xu Junhong wanted to break free, but Ertuo hugged her tightly, and the smell of alcohol exhaled from her mouth made her feel disgusted. Ertuzi said, Xu Junhong! I won’t make clothes anymore, I want you. As he spoke, Ertuzi hugged Xu Junhong to the room where she was sleeping. Xu Junhong shouted, and then shouted again. Ertuzi said, it’s useless to shout, it’s raining heavily, no one hears it.
Lao Hu, who sells Malatang, came back from buying wine. When he heard Xu Junhong shouting, he knew something was wrong. But he did not go to Xu Junhong's tailor shop, but ran to Li Xiangqian's house, shouting while running, Old Li! Old Li! Come out soon!
Li Xiangqian heard the shout, pulled his shoes and walked out the door.
Lao Hu said, Lao Li! Go and see, something happened to Xu Junhong.
Li Xiangqian took a kitchen knife and turned around and rushed out. He ran all the way, and when he arrived at Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, he realized that one of the slippers on his feet ran away. After seeing Ertuzi holding Xu Junhong, Li Xiangqian shouted loudly and said Ertuzi! You don't want to live anymore!
Ertuzi was stunned when he saw Li Xiangqian holding the kitchen knife in his hand, and hurriedly let go of Xu Junhong and said that Xu Junhong was measuring me, and I wanted to make clothes.
Li Xiangqian said, you make clothes! You bald man, get out of here, or I will use a kitchen knife to open your ladle.
Ertuzi said, why are you so fierce? I can't leave.
After Ertuo left, Xu Junhong cried. She lay on the sewing machine, her shoulders trembling with tears. Li Xiangqian patted her on the shoulder and said it was okay, it was okay. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will chop him with a kitchen knife!
Xu Junhong turned around, lay in Li Xiangqian's arms, and cried again.
Li Xiangqian gently patted Xu Junhong on the shoulder and said, "Girl!" OK, it's okay. With me here, no one dares to bully you in the future. Xu Junhong called out brother and slowly stopped crying. Since then, Xu Junhong has changed her words to Brother Li Xiangqian.
Afterwards, Lao Hu said to Li Xiangqian, Lao Li! There is a chance.
Li Xiangqian said, Lao Hu! Don't talk nonsense, it will ruin other people's reputation.
Lao Hu said, look, I hugged you, you still say I'm talking nonsense.
Li Xiangqian said, "You still said, "When you see Ertui bullying Xu Junhong, why are you so embarrassed to look at me and ignore me!"
Lao Hu said, you know Ertuzi, fight is worthless, how dare I offend him?
Li Xiangqian knew Ertui. After living in Baishui Street for so many years, how could he not know Ertui. But at that time, he didn't understand where he came from, so he actually took the kitchen knife and drove Ertuzi away. Later, when he saw Ertuzi, Li Xiangqian was a little timid, afraid that he would find fault. Unexpectedly, Ertuzi still chatted with Li Xiangqian just like nothing happened. Ertuzi once asked Li Xiangqian if he would use a kitchen knife to cut him off if he didn't leave at that time. Li Xiangqian said, what do you think?
Erba touched his bare forehead and said, judging from your posture, I think you can do it.
Li Xiangqian said guiltily, maybe. On which day was
? Li Xiangqian didn't remember, and a man came to Baishui Street and walked into Xu Junhong's tailoring shop. After the man came, he did not leave again.
Xu Junhong met like in the past, and called each other with a brother in a friendly manner. Li Xiangqian smiled, and that smile seemed to be forced. After laughing, Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu, have you taken in the apprentice?
Xu Junhong said, "I am not an apprentice, I am a relative. I don't want to farm at home, so I came out."
Li Xiangqian smiled again, saying you are relative?
Relatives. Xu Junhong said to the man, this is Brother Li, my landlord.
The man smiled, his lips moved twice, and hurriedly went to take out the cigarette.
Li Xiangqian said, "Take mine."
Xu Junhong said, brother, just call him Xiao Chen.
Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette and said, "You are busy, I'll go shopping."
When he arrived at the mahjong hall, Wang San said, "Old Li!" You haven't come some days.
Li Xiangqian said, you Wang San! Is there water? Make a pot of tea first.
Wang San brought the tea and said, "Old Li, I didn't expect it, really!" That man would get into trouble halfway.
Li Xiangqian calmed down his face and said, what do you mean by saying that!
Wang San smiled and said, "You know what you mean."
Li Xiangqian said that he is Xu Junhong's relative and came from the countryside.
Wang San said, I don’t think he looks like him. If he were Xu Junhong’s relatives, how could he live in the store? The tailor shop is so small, how can they sleep? I think their relationship is unusual, maybe they are Xu Junhong's old lover. Otherwise, Xu Junhong wouldn't have left him in the store.
Li Xiangqian said, "Don't you bet your mother!"
Wang San said, look! Speaking of your pain, it's not.
Li Xiangqian was upset and didn't drink tea. He got up and walked out of the mahjong hall. Wang San followed behind him and said as he walked, "Old Li!" I'll drink tea, I'll make it for you.
Li Xiangqian waved his hand and said he would not drink it anymore!
Wang San stood on the street, looking at Li Xiangqian's back, and didn't say anything. He knew that Li Xiangqian was interested in Xu Junhong, and a man came out from the way, saying he was a relative, but his relationship seemed to be extraordinary. How could Li Xiangqian not be upset?
Passed by Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, Li Xiangqian stopped, and the man was sitting on the stool at the door to select vegetables. He glanced at the shop, and Xu Junhong was lowering her head, and the sewing machine under her feet made a clattering sound. Who is this man? When talking about relatives, they don't look like each other. Wang San is right, he is Xu Junhong's good friend. Li Xiangqian walked a long way and looked back. The man has returned to the store. What is his relationship with Xu Junhong? Li Xiangqian thought about it again and again, confused. Just when his mind hurt, his nephew suddenly popped out of his mind. His nephew worked as a police officer in the police station. When his nephew came forward to ask, he would know everything. Li Xiangqian patted his head excitedly.
At noon that day, after lunch, Li Xiangqian took a nap. Just as he woke up, Xu Junhong came. Li Xiangqian opened the door and asked Xu Jun to sit in the house. Xu Junhong was panting, her chest was slightly undulating, and her voice seemed to tremble: Xiao Chen was taken away by the police.
Li Xiangqian said, what's going on? How could the police arrest people for no reason?
Xu Junhong said that they said Xiao Chen had a problem and took the police station to ask questions.
Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu, don’t treat your brother as an outsider. Who is Xiao Chen you? You better tell me that I have something to say when I arrive at the police station.
Xu Junhong said, brother, Xiao Chen is a relative of me.
Li Xiangqian said, that's OK! You wait, I'll go to the police station now.
went to the police station. Li Xiangqian not only found out the details of the man, but also learned about his relationship with Xu Junhong. The man just came out of prison and was arrested for rape and stayed in prison for five years. After the man had an accident, Xu Junhong divorced him. Li Xiangqian couldn't understand why Xu Junhong's man found her as soon as he came out of prison, and she left him in the tailor's shop. If that man finds something to do, it would be reasonable, but he does nothing all day long and doesn't say anything. He relies on a woman to support him. This is not what a man does. Besides, the two of them divorced, and living together again would be illegally living together.
3: After the position in front of the tailor's shop was occupied by that man, Li Xiangqian had to go to the mahjong hall to kill time. When Li Xiangqian went to the mahjong hall, he didn't win much money. In order to pass the time, losing two money is not a bad thing. But Li Xiangqian no longer wore the clothes Xu Junhong made for him. He put on the round-toed sweatshirt and big shorts he used to wear, held a palm-leaf fan in his hand, and pulled the old slippers on his feet. When Li Xiangqian returned to his past life, he felt that life was bland and boring. Thinking about the days before that man came, Li Xiangqian felt indescribable loss. How wonderful it was then. I sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop, drank tea, and talked to Xu Junhong, and felt comfortable all day long.
One night, Li Xiangqian came back from the mahjong hall and walked to Xu Junhong's tailoring shop. Hearing the man said, "You call me brother so much, do you know, it's the policeman named Li who went to look for."
Xu Junhong said, why did Lao Li go to the police station? He doesn’t know you just released it. Besides, you are not breaking the law now.
The man said that he knew people but not the heart. He went to the police station. This was not obvious.
Xu Junhong said, what do you mean?
The man said, he was looking at me and wanted to drive me away.
Xu Junhong said, Lao Li is not that kind of person.
The man said, look, you even protect him when you speak, who knows what the relationship is!
Xu Junhong said, what's the relationship! Lao Li is my landlord, what can I have to do with him?
The man laughed.
Xu Junhong said, do you think I have anything to do with you? We are all divorced, and I have nothing to do with you.
The man said, what's wrong with the divorce? I am also your man if I divorced.
Xu Junhong said, you still have the face to say this!
That man didn't say anything.
Xu Junhong didn't say anything else.
But after a while, a snap sound came from the tailor's shop. It was the sound of a slap on the face, clean and neat, and it sounded very crisp.
Li Xiangqian thought Xu Junhong, who was slapped, would cry, but he waited for a long time but couldn't hear the cry. Li Xiangqian had thought that as long as the man hit Xu Junhong again, he would rush into the store and teach that guy a lesson. Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette, took two sips, and sighed and left. Not far away, he heard Xu Junhong crying and sobbing. But Li Xiangqian didn't go back. Even if he went back by himself and entered the store, what could he say?
Two days later, Li Xiangqian passed by the tailor shop and didn't see the man. He stopped and looked into the shop. Just as he was watching, Xu Junhong called out to brother. Li Xiangqian had no choice but to say that he was busy.
Li Xiangqian was about to leave, but Xu Junhong walked out of the tailor shop, looked him up and down, and said that he was fine, and he was here to sit down.
Li Xiangqian said, where is he? Why aren't you here?
Xu Junhong said, "Let's go."
Li Xiangqian said, where have you gone?
Xu Junhong said, he has returned to his hometown.
Li Xiangqian sat down on the stool that Xu Junhong brought, took the tea made by Xu Junhong, and said you should be busy with yours.
Xu Junhong said, "My brother has taken care of me for so many years, but I don't know how to repay you."
Li Xiangqian said, look at what you said.
Xu Junhong sighed.
Li Xiangqian said, what do you mean by saying this? Are you leaving?
Xu Junhong shook her head and said that the business is good, where will I go?
Li Xiangqian said, just don’t leave. Then what about him, will he come back?
Xu Junhong said, don’t know.
Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette, but heard Xu Junhong say, "Why are you not wearing the clothes I made?"
Li Xiangqian said embarrassedly, "I can't bear to wear it."
Xu Junhong said, "If you don't want to bear to do anything, you just wear it. If you wear it in the old way, I will do it again."
Li Xiangqian smiled.
Li Xiangqian sat on the recliner in front of the tailor shop again. Two days later, he made a pot of tea, drank tea and chatted with Xu Junhong. There were several times, he couldn't help but want to ask Xu Junhong, since he divorced that man, why was he still so angry? But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Xu Junhong finally mentioned her child, a girl, who is in the fourth grade of elementary school. In the past, Xu Junhong never talked about her family affairs. Sometimes, Li Xiangqian asked her, and she stammered and blocked her with other topics.
Li Xiangqian said, your daughter looks as good as you, right?
Xu Junhong smiled and said she didn't look like me.
Li Xiangqian said oh, saying that he looked like her father.
After hearing Li Xiangqian say this, Xu Junhong's face became not very good-looking. Xu Junhong sighed and said that men are afraid of entering the wrong career and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Who has the eyes for the past and future in this life?
Li Xiangqian said that people's generation is long and short, but don't let yourself be wronged.
Xu Junhong nodded and said yes.
That day, Li Xiangqian was very happy. When I got home, I was happy and drank some wine and slept beautifully. When he woke up, it was already dark. Looking at the sky outside, Li Xiangqian washed his face, found the clothes Xu Junhong made for him to put on, and went out.
Just as I came to the street, I saw Lao Hu running towards him in panic.
Li Xiangqian said, Lao Hu, what are you running away?
Lao Hu said, it’s bad, the tailor shop is on fire!
Li Xiangqian's heart immediately hangs, saying it's hot? How come it catches fire? What about Xiao Xu? Is she okay?
Lao Hu said that she was not in the store.
Li Xiangqian's heart was then relieved. When he arrived, 119 also arrived, and four firefighters were squirting water at the tailor's shop with faucets. The door of the tailor shop was locked, and the fire was burning from the inside out, with a huge fire and thick smoke rolling. After the fire was extinguished, Li Xiangqian's legs became weak and he collapsed on the ground.
4: Li Xiangqian thought Xu Junhong would pack up his things and go home. A fire passed and there was nothing to clean up in the store. The sewing machine and edge locking machine were burning in an outrageous way. Xu Junhong really wanted to leave, so she had to leave alone. But Li Xiangqian didn't expect Xu Junhong to leave at all. Instead, he said that the house was fine, so he spent money to clean up and then opened the store. Li Xiangqian was unsure. He didn't know whether the fire was coming for him or Xu Junhong. In Baishui Street, he had no choice but to offend Ertuzi. It could not be the fire that Ertuzi set. Li Xiangqian found Ertuzi, and before he could speak, Ertuzi spoke first.
Ertuzi said, Lao Li! You don't doubt the fire I set, are you? My Ertuzi doesn’t do secret things, and I, Ertuzi, won’t do such despicable methods!
Li Xiangqian said, I didn’t say it was you.
Ertuzi said, of course it's not me anymore. Xu Junhong didn't offend me, so how could I do that? Even if she offended me, I wouldn't do that! My second bald man is a man at least.
Li Xiangqian has nothing to say. If it wasn't done by Ertuzi, there is another person worthy of doubt. But Xu Junhong's ex-husband has returned to his hometown, so he will not come secretly. Let's set a fire while Xu Junhong is away. Xu Junhong didn't think much about the cause of the fire. She found someone, cleaned up the house, painted the walls with latex paint, and replaced the doors and windows with aluminum alloy. The house has a roof hanging. After cleaning up, she went to buy a sewing machine and a edging machine. On the day the tailor shop opened, Xu Junhong bought two thousand-head firecrackers and joked that setting off firecrackers would shake the evil spirits.
Li Xiangqian said, you are right.
Xu Junhong stood aside and watched Li Xiang go to light firecrackers. He said, be careful.
Li Xiangqian said, it’s okay, stay away from it.
Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, the tailor shop opened again, and the business was as good as before and as prosperous as before. Shortly after the tailoring shop opened, Xu Junhong also accepted two apprentices. Li Xiangqian sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop, smoking and drinking tea, and sometimes chatting with Xu Junhong. At the beginning, Xu Junhong's two apprentices thought Li Xiangqian was her man. Xu Junhong was no longer as wary of Li Xiangqian as she used to, and she even took the initiative to talk to him about her unfortunate marriage. As he was talking, Xu Junhong stopped, glanced at Li Xiangqian, and said, "Brother, are you not planning to look for it again?"
Li Xiangqian was stunned for a moment and said that one person is doing well, so don’t worry about anything else.
Xu Junhong said that no matter how filial a child is, it is better to find a partner and have someone to take care of him when he is old.
Li Xiangqian said oh.
Xu Junhong said, looking for another one if there is a suitable one.
Li Xiangqian was a little puzzled. He couldn't understand what Xu Junhong said. Before, when Xu Junhong had just arrived, he was ready to move and kept running to the tailor shop, and he had that meaning to Xu Junhong. But later, especially when Xu Junhong's ex-husband came and the tailor's shop caught fire, he stopped thinking about it. He always felt that the burned was not a tailor shop, but was coming for him.A woman's heart is a needle on the sea. Sometimes, it's really hard to figure it out. Li Xiangqian either went to the mahjong hall or sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop to have tea, but it was better to stay at the tailor's shop manager when he went to the mahjong hall. But after a while, Xu Junhong found that he had come to the tailor shop less often. Sometimes, I don’t come every two or three days. Even if he came, he just sat for a while, smoked a cigarette, and said he would go to the mahjong hall to take a look.
Xu Junhong said that the mahjong hall is crowded and lively.
Li Xiangqian said, "If I don't go, I will yell when Wang San sees me." Hehe, there is nothing we can do.
Two days later, Li Xiangqian brought a woman to the tailor shop. Xu Junhong was stunned and called out to me, saying that he had brought me the customer.
Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "I said you have good skills, but she doesn't believe it. I won't come to you to make clothes."
After making clothes for the woman, Xu Junhong realized that the woman was met by Li Xiangqian in the mahjong hall. The two had been together for more than a month. The day the woman came to get the clothes, she fell in love with another piece of silk cloth. The woman rubbed it repeatedly, then wrapped it around her body, and asked Xu Junhong if it was suitable for her to wear it.
Xu Junhong said that it is appropriate to make cheongsams.
The woman said, I asked Lao Li, if he agreed to make a cheongsam, I will make one.
Xu Junhong said, then I'll keep the fabric for you.
In the afternoon, the woman came again and said that Lao Li agreed to me.
Looking at the figure of that woman, Xu Junhong thought she was not suitable for wearing cheongsams, but she liked it, so she had to do it.
After measuring the woman's body, the woman told Xu Junhong that it was Lao Li who asked me to do it.
Xu Junhong said, which old Li?
The woman smiled and said Li Xiangqian! He thought I looked good in cheongsam, so I would make one. You see, I am so old that wearing that kind of clothes will be laughed at by others. Xiao Xu, it’s better to wear a cheongsam with your figure.
Xu Junhong said, "My elder sister is just laughing at me."
Woman asked how many days it would take to do it.
Xu Junhong said, it will take three days.
was useless for only three days, and Xu Junhong made the cheongsam. After making a cheongsam for that woman, she also made one for herself, the style and the color, but the one she made would be thinner. Just as the woman said, Xu Junhong has a slim and straight figure, and she must be beautiful in a cheongsam. Last time, after Li Xiangqian took a kitchen knife to drive Ertuzi away, Xu Junhong had him in her heart, but she didn't say it to Li Xiangqian. This old Li! Xu Junhong sighed again. Last time I talked to Li Xiangqian about finding her wife, she thought Li Xiangqian understood what she meant. After talking for a long time, Li Xiangqian didn't understand. Thinking of this, Xu Junhong saw two people, one man and one woman. The two of them held hands and walked towards the mahjong hall with a smile. After all, she is a woman in her forties. She has grown fat where she shouldn't have grown. The tightly-knitted fat trembles and ripples like water...
The cheongsam that Xu Junhong made for herself has been hung on the hanger. She tried it on once after it was done, and never wore it again.
Xu Junhong sent it out and said, Master Li, be careful on the way.
When the wind blew, Li Xiangqian sobered up. He said to himself, this woman is soft on the outside and hard on the inside.
After Li walked forward, Xu Junhong put away the scissors and continued to stumble on the sewing machine pedal. She made a men's top with a round collar, double lace, and the fabric was silk. The buttons of the clothes were made by copper wire, and they were all made by herself. When she made the top and hung the hanger, the eyes of the Baishui Street people suddenly lit up, and then she truly realized her skills. After seeing the top, Li Xiangqian asked Xu Junhong who made it for. Xu Junhong said, Master Li, you said you wanted to make clothes a few days ago. I made one of them, and I don’t know if it’s appropriate. Li Xiangqian grinned and said, "I'll try putting it on."
Xu Junhong said, Master Li, look in the mirror.
Li Xiangqian looked at the mirror, nodded, saying that you did a good job and it was very suitable.
At noon that day, Li Xiangqian wore the double-breasted Chinese top and walked back and forth on Baishui Street twice. When he returned to Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, he said, "Everyone praises you for doing well."
Xu Junhong said, everyone said it was OK, then you should wear it.
Li Xiangqian wanted to pay, but Xu Junhong didn't want it, saying, Master Li, you really want to be sorry, I just deducted the money from the rent.
Li Xiangqian nodded and said it was OK! Good too!
Xu Junhong's business started to become prosperous that day.
Li Xiangqian wore that top, went shopping, went to the mahjong hall, and wore it all day long except sleeping. Li Xiangqian praised Xu Junhong's skills whenever he met everyone, as if he was advertising for Xu Junhong. That day, when Li Xiangqian said this to Lao Hu, who sells spicy hot pot, Lao Hu said, Lao Li! I think Xiao Xu is interested in you. Do I want me to help you break the window paper?
Li Xiangqian said, what window paper? Xiao Xu and I have nothing.
Old Hu smiled and said, "If you say there is no, there will be nothing."
Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu has been in Baishui Street for four years, right?
Lao Hu nodded.
Li Xiangqian said that Xiao Xu and I have been innocent in the past four years.
Lao Hu said, Xiao Xu's man is dead, do you think she can not look for it? She won't just go through this, right?
Li Xiangqian was stunned and said, "Who did you hear?"
Lao Hu said, your brother and sister. That day, your brother and sister asked Xiao Xu, it was Xiao Xu who said her man was dead.
Li Xiangqian said, don’t eat radish salty and worry about it, it’s just that I have that intention, but they don’t have that intention yet. Besides, I am used to living alone and I don’t plan to find it for the rest of my life.
Lao Hu laughed when he heard this, pointed to Li Xiangqian's crotch and said, "You don't want it, it wants it!"
Li Xiangqian said, I want it! Miss your wife.
Lao Hu said, I'm serious.
Li Xiangqian said, I am serious too.
Lao Hu said, think about Xu Junhong, it’s okay, miss my wife, my wife doesn’t pee at your pot.
2: A woman who opens a shop on Baishui Street is helpless, and the second-rate people on the street will inevitably come to cause trouble. There is a man named Ertuzi who is a bachelor. He once went to the tailor shop to think of Xu Junhong's good things. It was raining that day. Ertuzi drank some wine, walked into the store staggeringly, yelling to make clothes. When Xu Junhong saw that he had drunk wine, she said, "Master, let's wait tomorrow." Ertuzi said, I will do it now, why should I wait for tomorrow! Xu Junhong had no choice but to turn her head and measure her body. She couldn't smell the alcohol in Ertuzi's mouth. Ertuzi stood there, but couldn't stand steadily. He shook his body and hugged Xu Junhong's waist with both hands. Xu Junhong wanted to break free, but Ertuo hugged her tightly, and the smell of alcohol exhaled from her mouth made her feel disgusted. Ertuzi said, Xu Junhong! I won’t make clothes anymore, I want you. As he spoke, Ertuzi hugged Xu Junhong to the room where she was sleeping. Xu Junhong shouted, and then shouted again. Ertuzi said, it’s useless to shout, it’s raining heavily, no one hears it.
Lao Hu, who sells Malatang, came back from buying wine. When he heard Xu Junhong shouting, he knew something was wrong. But he did not go to Xu Junhong's tailor shop, but ran to Li Xiangqian's house, shouting while running, Old Li! Old Li! Come out soon!
Li Xiangqian heard the shout, pulled his shoes and walked out the door.
Lao Hu said, Lao Li! Go and see, something happened to Xu Junhong.
Li Xiangqian took a kitchen knife and turned around and rushed out. He ran all the way, and when he arrived at Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, he realized that one of the slippers on his feet ran away. After seeing Ertuzi holding Xu Junhong, Li Xiangqian shouted loudly and said Ertuzi! You don't want to live anymore!
Ertuzi was stunned when he saw Li Xiangqian holding the kitchen knife in his hand, and hurriedly let go of Xu Junhong and said that Xu Junhong was measuring me, and I wanted to make clothes.
Li Xiangqian said, you make clothes! You bald man, get out of here, or I will use a kitchen knife to open your ladle.
Ertuzi said, why are you so fierce? I can't leave.
After Ertuo left, Xu Junhong cried. She lay on the sewing machine, her shoulders trembling with tears. Li Xiangqian patted her on the shoulder and said it was okay, it was okay. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will chop him with a kitchen knife!
Xu Junhong turned around, lay in Li Xiangqian's arms, and cried again.
Li Xiangqian gently patted Xu Junhong on the shoulder and said, "Girl!" OK, it's okay. With me here, no one dares to bully you in the future. Xu Junhong called out brother and slowly stopped crying. Since then, Xu Junhong has changed her words to Brother Li Xiangqian.
Afterwards, Lao Hu said to Li Xiangqian, Lao Li! There is a chance.
Li Xiangqian said, Lao Hu! Don't talk nonsense, it will ruin other people's reputation.
Lao Hu said, look, I hugged you, you still say I'm talking nonsense.
Li Xiangqian said, "You still said, "When you see Ertui bullying Xu Junhong, why are you so embarrassed to look at me and ignore me!"
Lao Hu said, you know Ertuzi, fight is worthless, how dare I offend him?
Li Xiangqian knew Ertui. After living in Baishui Street for so many years, how could he not know Ertui. But at that time, he didn't understand where he came from, so he actually took the kitchen knife and drove Ertuzi away. Later, when he saw Ertuzi, Li Xiangqian was a little timid, afraid that he would find fault. Unexpectedly, Ertuzi still chatted with Li Xiangqian just like nothing happened. Ertuzi once asked Li Xiangqian if he would use a kitchen knife to cut him off if he didn't leave at that time. Li Xiangqian said, what do you think?
Erba touched his bare forehead and said, judging from your posture, I think you can do it.
Li Xiangqian said guiltily, maybe. On which day was
? Li Xiangqian didn't remember, and a man came to Baishui Street and walked into Xu Junhong's tailoring shop. After the man came, he did not leave again.
Xu Junhong met like in the past, and called each other with a brother in a friendly manner. Li Xiangqian smiled, and that smile seemed to be forced. After laughing, Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu, have you taken in the apprentice?
Xu Junhong said, "I am not an apprentice, I am a relative. I don't want to farm at home, so I came out."
Li Xiangqian smiled again, saying you are relative?
Relatives. Xu Junhong said to the man, this is Brother Li, my landlord.
The man smiled, his lips moved twice, and hurriedly went to take out the cigarette.
Li Xiangqian said, "Take mine."
Xu Junhong said, brother, just call him Xiao Chen.
Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette and said, "You are busy, I'll go shopping."
When he arrived at the mahjong hall, Wang San said, "Old Li!" You haven't come some days.
Li Xiangqian said, you Wang San! Is there water? Make a pot of tea first.
Wang San brought the tea and said, "Old Li, I didn't expect it, really!" That man would get into trouble halfway.
Li Xiangqian calmed down his face and said, what do you mean by saying that!
Wang San smiled and said, "You know what you mean."
Li Xiangqian said that he is Xu Junhong's relative and came from the countryside.
Wang San said, I don’t think he looks like him. If he were Xu Junhong’s relatives, how could he live in the store? The tailor shop is so small, how can they sleep? I think their relationship is unusual, maybe they are Xu Junhong's old lover. Otherwise, Xu Junhong wouldn't have left him in the store.
Li Xiangqian said, "Don't you bet your mother!"
Wang San said, look! Speaking of your pain, it's not.
Li Xiangqian was upset and didn't drink tea. He got up and walked out of the mahjong hall. Wang San followed behind him and said as he walked, "Old Li!" I'll drink tea, I'll make it for you.
Li Xiangqian waved his hand and said he would not drink it anymore!
Wang San stood on the street, looking at Li Xiangqian's back, and didn't say anything. He knew that Li Xiangqian was interested in Xu Junhong, and a man came out from the way, saying he was a relative, but his relationship seemed to be extraordinary. How could Li Xiangqian not be upset?
Passed by Xu Junhong's tailoring shop, Li Xiangqian stopped, and the man was sitting on the stool at the door to select vegetables. He glanced at the shop, and Xu Junhong was lowering her head, and the sewing machine under her feet made a clattering sound. Who is this man? When talking about relatives, they don't look like each other. Wang San is right, he is Xu Junhong's good friend. Li Xiangqian walked a long way and looked back. The man has returned to the store. What is his relationship with Xu Junhong? Li Xiangqian thought about it again and again, confused. Just when his mind hurt, his nephew suddenly popped out of his mind. His nephew worked as a police officer in the police station. When his nephew came forward to ask, he would know everything. Li Xiangqian patted his head excitedly.
At noon that day, after lunch, Li Xiangqian took a nap. Just as he woke up, Xu Junhong came. Li Xiangqian opened the door and asked Xu Jun to sit in the house. Xu Junhong was panting, her chest was slightly undulating, and her voice seemed to tremble: Xiao Chen was taken away by the police.
Li Xiangqian said, what's going on? How could the police arrest people for no reason?
Xu Junhong said that they said Xiao Chen had a problem and took the police station to ask questions.
Li Xiangqian said, Xiao Xu, don’t treat your brother as an outsider. Who is Xiao Chen you? You better tell me that I have something to say when I arrive at the police station.
Xu Junhong said, brother, Xiao Chen is a relative of me.
Li Xiangqian said, that's OK! You wait, I'll go to the police station now.
went to the police station. Li Xiangqian not only found out the details of the man, but also learned about his relationship with Xu Junhong. The man just came out of prison and was arrested for rape and stayed in prison for five years. After the man had an accident, Xu Junhong divorced him. Li Xiangqian couldn't understand why Xu Junhong's man found her as soon as he came out of prison, and she left him in the tailor's shop. If that man finds something to do, it would be reasonable, but he does nothing all day long and doesn't say anything. He relies on a woman to support him. This is not what a man does. Besides, the two of them divorced, and living together again would be illegally living together.
3: After the position in front of the tailor's shop was occupied by that man, Li Xiangqian had to go to the mahjong hall to kill time. When Li Xiangqian went to the mahjong hall, he didn't win much money. In order to pass the time, losing two money is not a bad thing. But Li Xiangqian no longer wore the clothes Xu Junhong made for him. He put on the round-toed sweatshirt and big shorts he used to wear, held a palm-leaf fan in his hand, and pulled the old slippers on his feet. When Li Xiangqian returned to his past life, he felt that life was bland and boring. Thinking about the days before that man came, Li Xiangqian felt indescribable loss. How wonderful it was then. I sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop, drank tea, and talked to Xu Junhong, and felt comfortable all day long.
One night, Li Xiangqian came back from the mahjong hall and walked to Xu Junhong's tailoring shop. Hearing the man said, "You call me brother so much, do you know, it's the policeman named Li who went to look for."
Xu Junhong said, why did Lao Li go to the police station? He doesn’t know you just released it. Besides, you are not breaking the law now.
The man said that he knew people but not the heart. He went to the police station. This was not obvious.
Xu Junhong said, what do you mean?
The man said, he was looking at me and wanted to drive me away.
Xu Junhong said, Lao Li is not that kind of person.
The man said, look, you even protect him when you speak, who knows what the relationship is!
Xu Junhong said, what's the relationship! Lao Li is my landlord, what can I have to do with him?
The man laughed.
Xu Junhong said, do you think I have anything to do with you? We are all divorced, and I have nothing to do with you.
The man said, what's wrong with the divorce? I am also your man if I divorced.
Xu Junhong said, you still have the face to say this!
That man didn't say anything.
Xu Junhong didn't say anything else.
But after a while, a snap sound came from the tailor's shop. It was the sound of a slap on the face, clean and neat, and it sounded very crisp.
Li Xiangqian thought Xu Junhong, who was slapped, would cry, but he waited for a long time but couldn't hear the cry. Li Xiangqian had thought that as long as the man hit Xu Junhong again, he would rush into the store and teach that guy a lesson. Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette, took two sips, and sighed and left. Not far away, he heard Xu Junhong crying and sobbing. But Li Xiangqian didn't go back. Even if he went back by himself and entered the store, what could he say?
Two days later, Li Xiangqian passed by the tailor shop and didn't see the man. He stopped and looked into the shop. Just as he was watching, Xu Junhong called out to brother. Li Xiangqian had no choice but to say that he was busy.
Li Xiangqian was about to leave, but Xu Junhong walked out of the tailor shop, looked him up and down, and said that he was fine, and he was here to sit down.
Li Xiangqian said, where is he? Why aren't you here?
Xu Junhong said, "Let's go."
Li Xiangqian said, where have you gone?
Xu Junhong said, he has returned to his hometown.
Li Xiangqian sat down on the stool that Xu Junhong brought, took the tea made by Xu Junhong, and said you should be busy with yours.
Xu Junhong said, "My brother has taken care of me for so many years, but I don't know how to repay you."
Li Xiangqian said, look at what you said.
Xu Junhong sighed.
Li Xiangqian said, what do you mean by saying this? Are you leaving?
Xu Junhong shook her head and said that the business is good, where will I go?
Li Xiangqian said, just don’t leave. Then what about him, will he come back?
Xu Junhong said, don’t know.
Li Xiangqian lit a cigarette, but heard Xu Junhong say, "Why are you not wearing the clothes I made?"
Li Xiangqian said embarrassedly, "I can't bear to wear it."
Xu Junhong said, "If you don't want to bear to do anything, you just wear it. If you wear it in the old way, I will do it again."
Li Xiangqian smiled.
Li Xiangqian sat on the recliner in front of the tailor shop again. Two days later, he made a pot of tea, drank tea and chatted with Xu Junhong. There were several times, he couldn't help but want to ask Xu Junhong, since he divorced that man, why was he still so angry? But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
Xu Junhong finally mentioned her child, a girl, who is in the fourth grade of elementary school. In the past, Xu Junhong never talked about her family affairs. Sometimes, Li Xiangqian asked her, and she stammered and blocked her with other topics.
Li Xiangqian said, your daughter looks as good as you, right?
Xu Junhong smiled and said she didn't look like me.
Li Xiangqian said oh, saying that he looked like her father.
After hearing Li Xiangqian say this, Xu Junhong's face became not very good-looking. Xu Junhong sighed and said that men are afraid of entering the wrong career and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Who has the eyes for the past and future in this life?
Li Xiangqian said that people's generation is long and short, but don't let yourself be wronged.
Xu Junhong nodded and said yes.
That day, Li Xiangqian was very happy. When I got home, I was happy and drank some wine and slept beautifully. When he woke up, it was already dark. Looking at the sky outside, Li Xiangqian washed his face, found the clothes Xu Junhong made for him to put on, and went out.
Just as I came to the street, I saw Lao Hu running towards him in panic.
Li Xiangqian said, Lao Hu, what are you running away?
Lao Hu said, it’s bad, the tailor shop is on fire!
Li Xiangqian's heart immediately hangs, saying it's hot? How come it catches fire? What about Xiao Xu? Is she okay?
Lao Hu said that she was not in the store.
Li Xiangqian's heart was then relieved. When he arrived, 119 also arrived, and four firefighters were squirting water at the tailor's shop with faucets. The door of the tailor shop was locked, and the fire was burning from the inside out, with a huge fire and thick smoke rolling. After the fire was extinguished, Li Xiangqian's legs became weak and he collapsed on the ground.
4: Li Xiangqian thought Xu Junhong would pack up his things and go home. A fire passed and there was nothing to clean up in the store. The sewing machine and edge locking machine were burning in an outrageous way. Xu Junhong really wanted to leave, so she had to leave alone. But Li Xiangqian didn't expect Xu Junhong to leave at all. Instead, he said that the house was fine, so he spent money to clean up and then opened the store. Li Xiangqian was unsure. He didn't know whether the fire was coming for him or Xu Junhong. In Baishui Street, he had no choice but to offend Ertuzi. It could not be the fire that Ertuzi set. Li Xiangqian found Ertuzi, and before he could speak, Ertuzi spoke first.
Ertuzi said, Lao Li! You don't doubt the fire I set, are you? My Ertuzi doesn’t do secret things, and I, Ertuzi, won’t do such despicable methods!
Li Xiangqian said, I didn’t say it was you.
Ertuzi said, of course it's not me anymore. Xu Junhong didn't offend me, so how could I do that? Even if she offended me, I wouldn't do that! My second bald man is a man at least.
Li Xiangqian has nothing to say. If it wasn't done by Ertuzi, there is another person worthy of doubt. But Xu Junhong's ex-husband has returned to his hometown, so he will not come secretly. Let's set a fire while Xu Junhong is away. Xu Junhong didn't think much about the cause of the fire. She found someone, cleaned up the house, painted the walls with latex paint, and replaced the doors and windows with aluminum alloy. The house has a roof hanging. After cleaning up, she went to buy a sewing machine and a edging machine. On the day the tailor shop opened, Xu Junhong bought two thousand-head firecrackers and joked that setting off firecrackers would shake the evil spirits.
Li Xiangqian said, you are right.
Xu Junhong stood aside and watched Li Xiang go to light firecrackers. He said, be careful.
Li Xiangqian said, it’s okay, stay away from it.
Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, the tailor shop opened again, and the business was as good as before and as prosperous as before. Shortly after the tailoring shop opened, Xu Junhong also accepted two apprentices. Li Xiangqian sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop, smoking and drinking tea, and sometimes chatting with Xu Junhong. At the beginning, Xu Junhong's two apprentices thought Li Xiangqian was her man. Xu Junhong was no longer as wary of Li Xiangqian as she used to, and she even took the initiative to talk to him about her unfortunate marriage. As he was talking, Xu Junhong stopped, glanced at Li Xiangqian, and said, "Brother, are you not planning to look for it again?"
Li Xiangqian was stunned for a moment and said that one person is doing well, so don’t worry about anything else.
Xu Junhong said that no matter how filial a child is, it is better to find a partner and have someone to take care of him when he is old.
Li Xiangqian said oh.
Xu Junhong said, looking for another one if there is a suitable one.
Li Xiangqian was a little puzzled. He couldn't understand what Xu Junhong said. Before, when Xu Junhong had just arrived, he was ready to move and kept running to the tailor shop, and he had that meaning to Xu Junhong. But later, especially when Xu Junhong's ex-husband came and the tailor's shop caught fire, he stopped thinking about it. He always felt that the burned was not a tailor shop, but was coming for him.A woman's heart is a needle on the sea. Sometimes, it's really hard to figure it out. Li Xiangqian either went to the mahjong hall or sat on the lounge chair in front of the tailor's shop to have tea, but it was better to stay at the tailor's shop manager when he went to the mahjong hall. But after a while, Xu Junhong found that he had come to the tailor shop less often. Sometimes, I don’t come every two or three days. Even if he came, he just sat for a while, smoked a cigarette, and said he would go to the mahjong hall to take a look.
Xu Junhong said that the mahjong hall is crowded and lively.
Li Xiangqian said, "If I don't go, I will yell when Wang San sees me." Hehe, there is nothing we can do.
Two days later, Li Xiangqian brought a woman to the tailor shop. Xu Junhong was stunned and called out to me, saying that he had brought me the customer.
Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "I said you have good skills, but she doesn't believe it. I won't come to you to make clothes."
After making clothes for the woman, Xu Junhong realized that the woman was met by Li Xiangqian in the mahjong hall. The two had been together for more than a month. The day the woman came to get the clothes, she fell in love with another piece of silk cloth. The woman rubbed it repeatedly, then wrapped it around her body, and asked Xu Junhong if it was suitable for her to wear it.
Xu Junhong said that it is appropriate to make cheongsams.
The woman said, I asked Lao Li, if he agreed to make a cheongsam, I will make one.
Xu Junhong said, then I'll keep the fabric for you.
In the afternoon, the woman came again and said that Lao Li agreed to me.
Looking at the figure of that woman, Xu Junhong thought she was not suitable for wearing cheongsams, but she liked it, so she had to do it.
After measuring the woman's body, the woman told Xu Junhong that it was Lao Li who asked me to do it.
Xu Junhong said, which old Li?
The woman smiled and said Li Xiangqian! He thought I looked good in cheongsam, so I would make one. You see, I am so old that wearing that kind of clothes will be laughed at by others. Xiao Xu, it’s better to wear a cheongsam with your figure.
Xu Junhong said, "My elder sister is just laughing at me."
Woman asked how many days it would take to do it.
Xu Junhong said, it will take three days.
was useless for only three days, and Xu Junhong made the cheongsam. After making a cheongsam for that woman, she also made one for herself, the style and the color, but the one she made would be thinner. Just as the woman said, Xu Junhong has a slim and straight figure, and she must be beautiful in a cheongsam. Last time, after Li Xiangqian took a kitchen knife to drive Ertuzi away, Xu Junhong had him in her heart, but she didn't say it to Li Xiangqian. This old Li! Xu Junhong sighed again. Last time I talked to Li Xiangqian about finding her wife, she thought Li Xiangqian understood what she meant. After talking for a long time, Li Xiangqian didn't understand. Thinking of this, Xu Junhong saw two people, one man and one woman. The two of them held hands and walked towards the mahjong hall with a smile. After all, she is a woman in her forties. She has grown fat where she shouldn't have grown. The tightly-knitted fat trembles and ripples like water...
The cheongsam that Xu Junhong made for herself has been hung on the hanger. She tried it on once after it was done, and never wore it again.
