It turned out that just when Chu Xintian was worried about what gift to give Lu Weichuan, she suddenly remembered that when Lu Weichuan went north, it was much colder than here. So she wanted to make a cotton coat and a pair of pants for Lu Weichuan.

So Chu Xintian went to Beishan Market to buy these ducks and big white geese.

To make a down jacket, you need more than a dozen duck fluffs.

Of course, the white goose is also very good.

Chu Xintian went to the Beishan Market and bought all the ducks and big white geese she could buy.

Lu Weichuan is leaving tomorrow, so Chu Xintian has no time to delay. She had to make this dress as soon as possible, and she had to hand over the clothes she made tomorrow morning to Lu Weichuan and let him take them on the road.

Although Niu Li didn't quite understand what Chu Xintian had done with duck feathers and goose feathers, she also knew that Chu Xintian had her own reasons for what she had done, so she stopped asking and started to help.

Killing geese and ducks to eat meat is the second most important, and the most important thing is that Chu Xintian wants to use the fluff on their bodies.

Therefore, when pulling her hair, Chu Xintian told Niu Li to help her collect the fluff carefully.

Chu Xintian and Niu Li quickly plucked the feathers of nine ducks and four big white geese.

Chu Xintian asked Niu Li to take out half of the duck and goose materials for lunch, and the remaining half was tied up with rattan and hung on the eaves, so that they could be frozen and kept for tomorrow.

Chu Xintian didn't care about cooking, so she handed it over to Niu Li to do. Chu Xintian washed the collected duck feathers and big white goose feathers twice with boiling water, disinfected them and put them on the kang to dry.

While drying the fluff, Chu Xintian began to cut the cloth.

In winter, the climate is dry. Chu Xintian's kang is also very hot, so the fluff dries quickly.

After eating, Niu Li finished cleaning up. Then she went in to see what Chu Xintian was doing.

Seeing that Chu Xintian's house was full of duck down, Niu Li was very curious:

"Yongjing, what are you going to do with these fluffs?"

After she asked, she saw Chu Xintian cutting clothes: "Do you want to make a padded jacket?"

Chu Xintian also told Niu Li that she wanted to make a down jacket.

"What do you want a cotton jacket Niu Li heard for the first time such words: "Who did this" How could anyone do this, they all make cotton clothes, can they wear this duck feather and goose feather?"

"Sister-in-law, duck down and goose down clothes can not only be worn on the body, but also warmer than cotton. They are light, not heavy. Okay"

Although Chu Xintian said so, Niu Li still didn't believe it. After all, Chu Xintian did this. She had never heard of it before, nor had she seen anyone do it. It is from modern times, which is beyond the scope of her knowledge. Naturally, she had a hard time believing this.

Chu Xintian also knew, smiled, and patiently explained to Niu Li: "Sister-in-law, you see, it's so cold now, we have to wear thick cotton jackets, stand in the snow, and we will shiver for a while, but look at those birds, ducks, chickens, and geese, they are all fine." According to this principle, they do not wear padded jackets, and their hair is thin, they must be cold, but it is winter. It is said that some people have frozen to death, but I have never seen chickens, ducks and geese freeze to death. This indicates that the fur on their body is warm, especially the fluff near the abdomen. It's good for keeping warm."

Chu Xintian's explanation, Niu Li thought it was true.

The birds and animals outside had no house to protect themselves from the wind and snow, and they had no cotton clothes to wear. However, they can still survive in winter because of these furs.

People like to use animal fur coats to protect against the cold, but in this day and age few people used bird feathers to keep out the cold.

Niu Li couldn't help but sigh and said, "Yongjing damn it, it's just that your brain is easy to use, and you can think of such a method."

As she spoke, she also got on the kang herself and began to help Chu Xintian sew and mend it.
