Chapter 56 Give Aunt Luo a Gift

The next day, Li Mingyue still got up early to go to Luo's house to go to work, and took the gift for Aunt Luo Shuluo in her bosom.

Aunt Luo, who received the gift, kept blaming Li Mingyue for wasting money, but she couldn't hide the smile on her face. It was a wonderful thing to be able to feel the dedication and get rewarded.

Aunt Luo really liked Li Mingyue very much, and her wishes were not let down, of course it was something to be happy about.

Li Mingyue kept a fraction of the money left over from yesterday, and handed over the remaining 18 taels to Aunt Luo for safekeeping. She always felt uneasy about keeping this huge sum of money at home. Relatives, she still trusts Aunt Luo.

Aunt Luo took a mahogany box to pack the silver, and joked about Li Mingyue casually: "Auntie will keep it for you, maybe it will be your dowry in the future."

A few pieces of rabbit fur, cotton needles and threads, Li Mingyue also brought them to the Luo family.In the afternoon, I was doing needlework with Aunt Luo in my spare time. The scarf was very easy to sew. Li Mingyue followed the modern style, first cut it out, sewed it up, then cut a finger-length slit at one end of the scarf, and then locked a side, so that Wrapped around the neck, the other end goes through a small opening, and the ball of the rabbit's tail just fits through the opening, which looks good and keeps warm.

Aunt Luo held it in her hand and looked at it for a long time, she was amazed: "This method is ingenious, saves trouble, and looks good. Where did you come up with so many ingenious ideas?"

Li Mingyue boasted shamelessly: "Hey, I'm smart."

In less than an hour, all four scarves were finished, and one was given to Aunt Luo, and the rest were tied around Li Mingyue's waist, and then covered with clothes, which was the same way she brought out in the morning.

A family in the village got married today, and they invited Aunt Luo's house to have a wedding, so Li Mingyue didn't have to cook dinner, and the family didn't have much work, so Aunt Luo simply asked Li Mingyue to take a morning job, and let her go home when the time came.

When Li Mingyue returned home, Li Shou and Li Mingzhi went up the mountain to collect firewood. In the house, Mingxiang and Mingxiu brought Mingqing to play on the kang.

Mrs. Liu and the others went to wash clothes by the river and haven't returned yet. I heard that there are so many clothes today that they didn't even bother to come back for lunch.

Li Mingyue thought for a while, put two pieces of ginger and a piece of brown sugar bought yesterday in her bosom, took her own pottery pot for boiling medicine, and planned to go to the river to make some brown sugar ginger soup for Mrs. Liu and the others.

In the front yard, Mrs. Zhang was squatting at the door of the house and eating melon seeds: "Yo, Wu Ya came back early today, what are you going to do with a jar?"

She is an elder, so Li Mingyue can't help but answer her questions, besides, she is aboveboard.

"Go to the river and make some ginger soup for my mother and the others."

Mrs. Zhang is a jerk, and she opened her mouth with stabbing words: "Yo, the second sister-in-law's family is really particular. She even drinks ginger soup after washing clothes. She really regards herself as a noble person."

Mrs. Zhang's voice was so loud that Mrs. Li, who was leaning on the kang in the back room, heard it. The old lady got up quickly, pulled her shoes and came out.

"What ginger soup are you making! Don't waste things, what are you doing coming back so early, what are you going to do with your wages? You're wasting a meal at home!"

Li Mingyue really wanted to give her a supercilious look. It was cold and she was going to bring a bowl of ginger soup to hinder them. They were all psychopaths, but they could only reason with the perverted elders who held the power of life and death.

"Grandma, Luo's family is going to have a wedding today, and let me come back if I don't need to cook. They won't deduct my wages... Anyway, there is nothing wrong at home. It's so cold, I'll send some ginger soup Let them drink to warm up their bodies and get rid of the cold, and if some of them suffer from frostbite, who will wash the clothes, and it will cost money to see a doctor and drink medicine, so it’s not worth it.”

Mrs. Li loves money the most. When she heard the truth, she said to Li Mingyue with a calm face, "Hurry up if you want to go. There are a lot of clothes today. If you go, help out there. If you can't finish washing, don't come back." time to eat!"
