Chapter 26
"Yeah, really, sister, your chin used to have several layers, but now it seems to be missing."

"..." Bai Jinli.

"Your waist used to be thicker than our bucket, but now... it seems to be almost the same as a bucket."

"..." Bai Jinli, hehe.

"Look at your clothes, they used to be tight, but now they're not tight anymore!"

"..." Bai Jinli really wanted to flip the table.

Can this child speak?

I feel sad for no reason.

Suddenly want to hit someone, why?
Lin Chenyuan at the side observed Bai Jinli calmly, and felt that her expression was a little lively and cute.

The joy on that face quickly turned into astonishment, and then to anger, annoyance, resentment, struggle, life without love...

No, no, how could he think Bai Jinli, a bad woman, is cute? She must be dazzled, and her brain is not working well.

"So little aunt, you really...really lost weight." Bai Mo looked up and saw Bai Jinli's expression, and instantly returned to his previous appearance.

Why did he forget that the person in front of him likes to bully him and beat his sister-in-law whenever he disagrees.

Why did he speak the truth?
According to my sister-in-law's unpredictable temperament, I don't know if she will beat him in a while.

Speaking of which, my sister-in-law has really changed recently, she is not the same as before, at most she will yell at him, but she has never bullied him.

It would be great if my sister-in-law could always be like this.

"Mo'er, why are you standing here if you don't go to work? Do you want to make your sister unhappy again?" At this moment, Mrs. Zhang came out from the side, with a hint of anger in her tone.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that her eyes are more nervous, worried and caring.

She was afraid that Bai Mo would inadvertently provoke Bai Jinli again, and be beaten and scolded by him, so she hurried over to pre-empt him, which was also a way to protect Bai Mo.

"Mom, I was wrong, I'm going to chop wood now."

Bai Mo blinked his big black eyes and glanced at Mrs. Zhang, then secretly took a look at Bai Jinli, and then quickly ran away.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then looked at Bai Jinli and spoke.

"Hehehe, Li... Lizi, Mo'er is still young, she is playful and ignorant, don't mind."

"Well, that's all, since he packed the herbs for me just now, I won't argue with him anymore." Bai Jinli waved his hand.

"Yes, Lizi, you are really kind."

Seeing the gratitude on Zhang's face, Bai Jinli's heart...&*...()*%*&.

Really, is this because she is used to being bullied?

Suddenly one day, she stopped bullying these people, and these people would thank her so much?
"Hehe, Lizi, I...I have one more thing to tell you."

Zhang hesitated for a while, then squeezed her right hand tightly, gritted her teeth and forced herself to speak.

"What's the matter, tell me."

"Can... can I trouble you to go to my room?" Mrs. Zhang glanced at her, her hands in the sleeves were trembling, and her palms were sweating even more.

"Woman, it's really troublesome, let's go." Bai Jinli snorted, and walked one step ahead.

"Huh? Good." Zhang was overjoyed.

She thought that Bai Jinli would refuse impatiently, then scold her, turn around and leave coldly.

"Oh, woman!" Lin Chenyuan behind him sneered, turned around and left the room.

According to the time, the young prince of the Duke's Mansion will come to this place to find someone recently, and then he will meet a group of reckless vagabonds unintentionally, which is a certain danger.

For him, this is an opportunity.

For some things, he will plan carefully from now on.

Entering Mrs. Zhang's room, Bai Jinli couldn't help frowning slightly.

This house is simply too dilapidated.

A kang with a large area, an earthen wall, and a layer of paper on the wall with paste.

There was a small window, which looked very dilapidated.

A dark wardrobe, with a template and rough wood firewood piled up next to a chopping board for placing things.

Other than that, there are some scattered and worthless little things.

It's just so shabby.

But fortunately, the house was tidy and tidy. Mrs. Zhang even put a bouquet of blooming wild flowers on the piled chopping board in the house.

With the decoration of wild flowers, it makes the whole house look a little more warm.

"Lizi, if you like that bouquet of flowers, you can take it away."

Mrs. Zhang naturally saw Bai Jinli's scrutinizing gaze, and said quickly.

Not to mention a bouquet of flowers, whatever Bai Jinli wanted, they had to give it unconditionally. This was their family's rule.

"No need, just put it there, it's pretty. You can pick a bunch for me some other day." Bai Jinli shook her head.

I didn't see it, although Mrs. Zhang picked a bunch of wild flowers, but after she decorated them, the flowers were quite beautiful.

"Yeah, no problem." Mrs. Zhang nodded repeatedly.

"Sister-in-law, what are you looking for me for? Now that there is no one else, please tell me."

"Lizi, I, I heard from Bai Mo the other day that he accidentally disturbed you and made you roll down the mountain by accident. I apologize to you on his behalf. I'm sorry." Mrs. Zhang bowed, with a pious and friendly expression on her face. apology.

According to my sister-in-law's habit, after Bai Mo did that, he would definitely be beaten severely, locked up and fined, and hated by his mother-in-law.

But what surprised her was that the sister-in-law actually helped Bai Mo once and took the initiative to cover up for him.

That alone is worth making her bow.

That day Niu asked her if she felt that Bai Jinli was different, but she didn't answer.

In fact, she also felt that Bai Jinli was indeed different from before.

It was precisely because of this knowledge that she mustered up the courage to come to Bai Jinli today.

"It's okay, you don't need to thank me, I still need him to help me with more work!"

"Well, I'll make him obedient. Lizi, there's one more thing, I want to ask you to do me a favor."

After finishing the second half of the sentence, Mrs. Zhang's face turned red.

It can be seen that she is usually not very good at dealing with people, let alone asking for help.

"What are you busy with?"

"This is for you!" Mrs. Zhang took out an embroidered handkerchief from the back of the quilt.

A lotus flower is embroidered on the handkerchief, which looks lifelike.

Turning it over and looking at the back, it turned out to be double-sided embroidery, and there were no threads or flaws to be seen.

"Such a beautiful thing, are you willing to give it to me?" Bai Jinli asked.

This exquisite craftsmanship is considered a treasure in the 21st century, right?

Embroidered by hand, it can be regarded as an intangible heritage.

"Lizi, don't get me wrong, I just embroidered this, I didn't hide it from you on purpose."

Mrs. Zhang thought that Bai Jinli's words meant that she disliked her for hiding good things from her, so she quickly opened her mouth to explain.

"I know. Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just tell me." Bai Jinli looked at her calmly.

"It's like this. I want you to buy some embroidery thread for me when I go to the county seat tomorrow, as well as embroidered cloth for embroidered handkerchiefs. Don't worry, I understand."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhang quickly took out a handkerchief from under the pillow.

After peeling off the layers, there were seven or eight large coins and twenty copper plates inside.

In this dynasty, a big coin was almost equal to seventy wen.

"This money is more than enough to buy embroidery thread and cloth, and the rest of the money is dedicated to you."

"...Oh, fine, I agree." Bai Jinli said.

"Really? Lizi, thank you!" Mrs. Zhang immediately beamed with joy.

When she asked Bai Jinli for help, she was actually only [-] to [-]% sure.

Who would have thought that Bai Jinli would agree immediately.

"Well, don't worry, since I promised you, I will definitely buy it for you. Tell me what kind of embroidery thread you need and how much, and I will bring it for you."

Mrs. Li is very strict with money management, presumably this is all the private money the big family has saved over the years.

Hey, I feel pitiful just thinking about it.

Mrs. Li secretly gave her pocket money every month, so she must have had such a lot.

"Well, let me just say..."

After coming out of Mrs. Zhang's house, Bai Jinli went to look for Mrs. Li.

When she wakes up early tomorrow morning, she will go to the county with Mrs. Li, and of course she will have a chat with her.

Moreover, when she was talking to Mrs. Zhang just now, she suddenly had a new idea.

"Mom, are you there?"

"Hey, girl, you're here, come quickly!" Mrs. Li heard her voice, opened the door and pulled her in mysteriously.

"Mom, what are you doing!"

"Girl, look, Mother has already saved so much dowry for you, if you work harder, you won't have to worry about it in the future."

Pointing to her precious money box, Mrs. Li said proudly.

Looking at the five or sixty taels of silver lying in the box, Bai Jinli was a little shocked.

It turns out that Mrs. Li still has a lot of money in her hands.

"Mother, you are so kind to me!" Bai Jinli couldn't help but speak.

"That's right, you are my daughter. If I don't treat you well, who else will I treat you well! Come on, Lizi, touch her."

After speaking, Mrs. Li handed her money box to Bai Jinli.

"...Uh." There was a black line on Bai Jinli's forehead.

She seems to remember.

Mrs. Li has a hobby. She likes to close the door and secretly count money when she is free. She counts money over and over again, and then hides it.

From time to time, he would call Bai Jinli over to take a look, and then chat with her for a long time.

Regarding Mrs. Li's hobby, Bai Jinli said...

Emmm, forget it, as long as her mother is happy.

"How about it, does it feel comfortable?"

"Yeah, that's great!" Bai Jinli nodded.

"Mother, quickly collect the money, and don't be seen by others."

"What can other people do if they see it? Who dares to come and snatch it? Oh, my mother gave them eighty courage, but they didn't dare."

Granny Li snorted coldly and took out three big coins and dozens of copper coins, then wrapped the money up, covered the box and hid it.

"By the way, girl, what's the reason you came to see me? Is it because you don't like those stupid things in the first room and the second room? It's okay, mother will help you clean them up!"

"...No, I have something serious to tell you!" Bai Jinli sweated profusely.

"What's the matter? Girl, do you have any new ideas?"
