Chapter XIII: Conspiracy
"You dare to say that my son is not as good as you? You dead girl loses money and goods, where is my son inferior to you? "The Wang family blew up, his son is so good, where is not better than a girl.
"I still wet the bed at the age of nine, and Xiaoqiu stopped wetting the bed when she was only four years old. Is there a shame in it? ”
"I'm not ashamed, what's your business with me wetting the bed?" Shen Nengwu heard Xiao Xia dare to mention his bedwetting, and he blushed and jumped up again.
"It's not a shame to wet the bed, you dare to pee for a lifetime?"
"Yes, I'm not ashamed to pee for the rest of my life."
"Okay, when you have a son, pee with him."
"Alright, get out of here." The old man was angry again when he heard his grandson's brainless words.
Xiao Xia hurriedly picked up her father and dragged the family away, as for the Shen family's dinner today, there was no more.
After returning to her own room in the West Wing, Xiao Xia knew that Xiao Wang and Shen Zhong were not in the mood for the two buns now, but she was in a good mood, and opened the two packages she brought back today, which contained fabrics, a bag of pastries and a bag of candy.
Xiao Wang was immediately attracted to attention, and reached out to touch the cloth head piece by piece, all of which were cotton. "Why did you buy so much?"
"A total of ninety-two wen were sold. It's all made me spend it, mother, you won't be angry, right? There are still four catties of cotton here" Xiao Xia put what he couldn't take out in the space first, and then secretly took it out and used it later.
"It's a pity that the cloth is too small to make clothes."
"Why not, we can do it together, you see this gray one makes the body, and this light pink one makes two sleeves, isn't it just a piece of clothing?" Xiao Xia thinks that this kind of clothes look better, isn't it very popular to have spliced clothes in modern times? It's all good-looking.
Koharu's eyes also lit up, so the mother and daughter studied it by the faint moonlight outside. Xiaoqiu had already taken a piece of pastry and put it in her stomach, she had never eaten enough of such a delicious thing.
Shen Zhong sighed and looked at his mother, who had forgotten himself, and suddenly felt very happy, and he still felt warm when he returned to his room.
When Shen Zhi returned to his room, he slammed the book on the table, startling Zhao, who was following the room on his back feet.
Knowing that his father-in-law was angry with Shen Xiaoxia today, he didn't dare to make a sound, and sat silently on the edge of the bed in a daze.
"You'll go back to your mother's house tomorrow."
"What are you going to do when you go back to your mother's house?" Zhao is excited.
"You go back and inquire, Shen Xiaoxia's well-spoken little mouth has really buried her in our old Shen family, find her a big family, let her go to the master, maybe she can fly on the branches." Shen Zhi decided to solve this eye-catching trouble, and since the rest of the Shen family couldn't cure her, he would take matters into his own hands.
"I'll go."
Before dawn the next day, the Zhao family went back to her parents' house, and Xiao Xia didn't care, not knowing that a catastrophe was about to befall her.
On this day, Xiao Xia was in a good mood. Although she can't embroider, she can still sew clothes, and Koharu has a good stitch after a month of practice. Xiao Wang cut the cloth according to the requirements of the two girls, and they made their own clothes.
"Xiao Xia, can you do a good job? Otherwise, I will make it for you as soon as my mother does it for Xiaoqiu. Xiao Wang was worried that she was wasting material and didn't want her to do it, Xiao Chun also studied with her for a month, Xiao Xia didn't learn, her excuse at the time was that she was still young and not in a hurry.
"Mother, don't worry! I can do it, I watched it for a month, and I can see it. When I'm ready, my mother embroiders a few little chrysanthemums on my cuffs, okay? Xiao Xia chose to use light yellow cotton cloth for her body, and the sleeves were blue and gray, if you embroidered a few yellow daisies on the cuffs, this dress would definitely look good. The back of the pants is gray, the front is earthy yellow, and the white chrysanthemums are embroidered on the legs of the pants, and this body must be a good match.
"Mother, my clothes will be embroidered when they are ready." Koharu is a gray and pink combination chosen by Konatsu.
"My mother also embroidered flowers on Xiaoqiu's clothes." Xiaoqiu had sugar in her mouth and happily came over. She is small, and a piece of cloth is enough, and she doesn't need to match colors. I used those two pieces of muslin. One piece of red, one piece of water blue, are very bright, enough to make two bodies, and the little guy likes it very much.
"Mother, you have to make a body yourself, and the two-foot piece of material is yours." Xiao Xia watched Xiao Wang put the piece of fabric into the only box in the house and reminded her.
"My mother is not short of clothes, so I keep them for you to use."
"Mother, my sister and I don't like that color, I bought it for you, and there are a lot of cloths, we make thin cotton for this body, and we can wear it for a month, and then we will make a single dress."
"The second sister is right, mother, you can do it too!"
"But your dad doesn't have it yet!"
Because Shen Zhong worked outside every day, if he didn't have cotton clothes, he would have frozen to death, so he always had cotton clothes to wear. Xiao Xia didn't rush to buy him materials to make clothes, and he couldn't change the whole family into new clothes, it was too ostentatious. So all she bought was cloth, that is, cheap, and the clothes she made were good-looking, and they were not ostentatious.
"Wait until the next time I go to the town to buy materials for my father, and then I will make a new single clothes for my father."
"Alas! It's going to be planted in the spring, and your grandmother is talking about raising two pigs this year, and then your mother won't have time to embroider purses. Xiao Wang was depressed, and continued to sew the clothes in his hand, thinking that he would sew them quickly, and take advantage of the time to embroider a few more purses and exchange more money, so that the girls would have new clothes to wear.
Xiao Xia listened to Xiao Wang's words, frowned, and wanted to completely liberate the only way to completely liberate the Shen family, who ate people and did not spit out bones. But with his father's character, it is difficult to say a word, it is too difficult.
Xiao Xia kept thinking about the work in her hand, next time she went to the town to buy a few feet of light-colored muslin to make underwear. Thinking that I need to treat my leg next month, it may be inconvenient to move in the future, what is the way to make money, the money in my pocket is really not enough! Why don't you find a chance to go to the county seat and make two more gold jewelry?
Two days later, Zhao finally came back, with a smile on his face. After entering the courtyard, he hurried to Shen Zhi to ask for credit.
"Found someone?" Shen Zhi put down the book in his hand and waited for news from the Zhao family.
"I found a good family, the landlord Li of Pingtou Village in the west of the town, who has 100 acres of fertile land and wants to find a daughter-in-law for his youngest son." Zhao looked at Shen Zhi triumphantly.
"And then?" The landlord of a hundred acres of fertile land is looking for a daughter-in-law for his son, and there is a problem when he listens.
Zhao saw that Shen Zhi was interested, and then spoke. "Landlord Li is fifty years old and has a little son, this little son was born to a favored concubine, but unfortunately he was born a fool, thinking that he is already fifteen, not only is he stupid." Speaking of this, he pretended to be shy, and wanted Xianggong to take pity on him, but unfortunately the Zhao family still didn't know that Shen Zhi had never taken a fancy to her.
