Chapter 246 New Business Opportunities
Lin Chuyi could understand why others did this, but she could not understand Lin Jinxiu because her family was no longer short of money.
Not only did she not need money, Lin Jinxiu did too. Lin Chuyi handed over the household purchasing and the work of paying monthly wages to Grandpa Huang and others to Lin Jinxiu. The amount of money she handed over to Lin Jinxiu increased each time. Just the day before yesterday, she had given Lin Jinxiu twenty taels of silver.
No matter how expensive cotton cloth and cotton are, their family can afford them. Besides, no matter how many sanitary napkins are used, their volume is so small that not much cotton cloth and cotton are used in a month, so there is no need to be stingy in this regard.
Before Lin Chuyi could finish his words of persuasion, Lin Jinxiu's voice rang in his ears again: "Besides, although this thing of yours looks exquisite, its design is somewhat unreasonable. Why is there no strap on it? How can you fix it without a strap? If you keep holding it with your legs, it will be very inconvenient to move." Lin Jinxiu's voice became smaller and smaller, and she was obviously a little embarrassed.
"What's inconvenient about this? Don't you still have your underwear on?" Although Lin Chuyi was surprised that Lin Jinxiu asked such an obvious question, he still patiently answered Lin Jinxiu.
Unexpectedly, Lin Chuyi heard Lin Jinxiu ask her back the next second, "What are underwear?"
When Lin Chuyi heard this, he was shocked and did not try to hide it at all, and it was completely revealed on his face.
She couldn't believe that her eldest sister had grown up so much and still didn't know what underwear was.
After being shocked, Lin Chuyi quickly calmed down. After thinking for a while, he came up with a reason for Lin Jinxiu.
When the original body's mother passed away, Lin Jinxiu was just a little kid who knew nothing, so it was normal for a child not to wear underwear.
Later, her father passed away, and she and her siblings were not liked by their family. Naturally, no one would specifically teach Lin Jinxiu how to do housework.
The ancients were very conservative and usually made things like underwear by themselves, so it was normal that they were not sold in clothing stores.
When she took her younger brother and sister to buy clothes, she thought it was an unspoken rule and didn't pay much attention to it. She just asked the textile factory in the space to produce a batch of underwear.
Lin Chuyi spontaneously found an excuse for Lin Jinxiu and believed in her guess, so her face returned to normal. She explained a few words to Lin Jinxiu and got away with the excuse of going back to the room to get some new underwear. After returning to the room, she found two new pure cotton underwear that were suitable for Lin Jinxiu's size from the space inventory and planned to give them to Lin Jinxiu.
Unexpectedly, this scene was seen by Madam Shen who came to see Lin Jinxiu. Madam Shen saw what Lin Chuyi was holding and asked curiously, "Hey, girl, what is that in your hand? It looks of good quality."
After a few months of getting along, Madam Shen and the others were no longer as reserved as they were at the beginning, and would ask directly when they encountered something they didn't understand.
In the past, Lin Chu would have certainly answered Madam Shen's questions, but at that moment, Lin Chu looked at Madam Shen opening and closing her mouth, praising the fine material of the underwear and the fine stitching, as if she was seeing it for the first time in her life, and she felt a little numb.
Lin Chuyi knew Madam Shen’s general experience and knew that she was not from a poor family. But even she didn’t know about the existence of underwear. Could it be that people in this era didn’t wear underwear?
When this thought came out, Lin Chuyi was almost petrified. In order to verify what he was thinking, Lin Chuyi glanced at Madam Shen several times and asked tentatively: "Madam Shen, do you really not know what this is?"
Madam Shen nodded blankly.
Lin Chuyi pursed her lips and asked an irrelevant question: "Your clothes today are quite nice, but the temperature has dropped recently. Don't you feel cold wearing only this piece of clothes?"
"Ah?" Madam Shen was a little confused by Lin Chuyi's sudden concern. She was stunned for a moment before nodding and replying, "This dress was made last month. It's just right to wear now. You won't feel cold. Why do you ask this, young lady? But what's wrong with this dress?"
"Oh, there's nothing wrong. I just want to ask, besides the outer clothes, what else are you wearing?"
Even though Shen and Lin Chu were both women, and she was much older than Shen, she blushed with shame when facing Lin Chu's straightforward question: "Besides this outfit, there is also a bellyband, what else can I have?"
Hearing Madam Shen's answer, Lin Chuyi's head suddenly buzzed. People here actually don't wear underwear. This realization completely refreshed Lin Chuyi's three views.
She was in a daze for a long time before her mind gradually became clear. Once her mind became clear, her money-making radar was triggered again.
Lin Chuyi smiled brightly at Lin Jinxiu and Shen Niangzi. Faced with Lin Chuyi's rich emotional changes, the two of them went from being worried at the beginning to being at a loss. After looking at each other, they actually took a step back tacitly at the same time. They were afraid of such an abnormal second sister/girl.
"Why are you backing off? I have a great idea to make money. Come with me to the study."
After Lin Chuyi finished speaking, he hurriedly ran to the study room carrying two pairs of underwear.
Lin Jinxiu and Shen Niangzi didn't understand what was going on, but they still followed Lin Chuyi obediently and entered the study together.
Lin Chuyi asked the two to find a place to sit down, then he unfolded the underwear in his hand and began to explain to them what underwear is and the benefits of wearing underwear.
After Lin Jinxiu and Shen Niangzi understood her words thoroughly, she began to draw the blueprint.
Lin Chuyi drew two drawings, one for underwear and the other for a bra. Each drawing not only had a pattern, but also had the dimensions clearly marked. Both Lin Jinxiu and Shen Niang could understand the contents of the drawing at a glance.
Lin Chuyi placed the two newly drawn drawings together with the previous sanitary napkin drawings and motioned for them to come closer and take a look.
When Lin Jinxiu and Shen Niangzi saw clearly what Lin Chuyi had drawn, their faces turned red again. The reason was that they already knew what underwear and sanitary napkins were thanks to Lin Chuyi's explanation. And because of the special shape of the drawing placed next to these two drawings, they already knew what it was without any instruction.
They imagined in their minds the scene of the blueprint becoming a real object and being worn on their bodies, and subconsciously closed their eyes.
If they really dressed like this, they would probably not dare to go out and see people.
Lin Chuyi did not try to understand the two people's rich psychological activities at this time, but pointed at the three drawings and began to imagine the future.
