Chapter 111 Making Dumplings (4)
"Listen to you, I'll borrow it this time."

"Then you can borrow it this time. Eldest sister is pregnant, and there is nothing good at home. I will prepare thirty duck eggs and a catty of sausage. You can bring them to elder sister and say hello to elder sister for me."...

It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, not only the thief was caught, but also the foundation of the old house was obtained.Right now, the son of the village chief is still missing.

I heard that the village head's daughter-in-law's natal family is very powerful, and she has become an official in the county yamen. If there is a real lawsuit, she must be at a disadvantage.But fortunately, there are witnesses, and the odds of winning have increased by one point.If you want to win the lawsuit, you must have the trump card in your hand.What is this trump card?
Just as I was thinking about something, I heard someone calling me from an outsider.I went out and saw that it was the proprietress of the tailor shop.Li Caiwei hurried over to get the clothes. "Caiwei, the clothes are too big, they are in the carriage, please help me carry them."

The two unloaded a large bag of clothes from the carriage, intending to leave the proprietress to drink some water at home.The proprietress said that there are still a lot of goods to be delivered to other farmers' homes.

The proprietress enthusiastically said: "Girl Caiwei, I plan to design a few sets of spring clothes next spring. If you want, I will keep two sets for you."

"Boss, I bought a lot of clothes from you, you have to give me a cheaper price."

"I'll give you something cheaper later."

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and the proprietress was busy delivering clothes to the next family.Li Caiwei took the clothes into the room, opened the clothes, and took out two pieces worn by Mrs. Lin, ready to try them on for Mrs. Lin.Lin probably knew what happened at home, her hands were stiff, and she couldn't get in no matter what she wore. "Mother, what's the matter?" Li Caiwei sensed that something was wrong with Mrs. Lin, probably because she heard what happened at home. "Mother, don't worry, everything at home is almost settled."

"I made two winter clothes for you. The cotton is new cotton, so it must be warm to wear. I know you like lighter colors, so I specially picked two light-colored ones for you. Try to see if the size fits you. If it doesn't fit I'll take it back and modify it."

Two tears flowed from the corners of Lin's eyes. In fact, she knew what happened outside. 1000 taels of silver, how can I ask my daughter to pay?The mother-in-law is not a person who knows how to do things. The Liu family is all there, but she let her ten-year-old daughter pay off the debt.Ever since she came to Caiwei, she has been aware of her daughter's hard work, and she needs to work hard both at home and outside.Fortunately, the son-in-law is quite considerate and helps his daughter in everything.It's almost Chinese New Year now, and accidents happen one after another at home, how can this make her feel at ease?Lin wanted to move, but couldn't move at all.The padded jacket was very warm, and I remembered some things from the past. The family was poor, and it was rare to eat meat all year round, but the three children were sensible, and they never made a fuss about buying nice and comfortable clothes.Even during the Chinese New Year, the clothes are sewn by myself with my own old clothes.

Why is it so unfair to let the daughter marry a fool, and there is such a husband's family?Seeing her daughter suffer so much, the mother feels so sad, but she can't help at all.Fortunately, my daughter is smart, and the family built a new house, raised poultry, and got land, and the Chinese New Year will be almost half a month away.Thinking of this, Lin felt uncomfortable.

Li Caiwei carefully helped put on the clothes, which fit just right. Seeing Mrs. Lin wearing new clothes, this was the first time she bought clothes for her mother, "Mother, you look good in this new cotton coat. I will buy you two more pairs of cotton clothes later." Shoes, when you recover from illness, you can walk in new shoes.”

After helping Mrs. Lin to lie down on the bed, she went back to her room and tried on the newly made cotton padded clothes.

The new cotton coat still has the aroma of new cotton, and the new cotton keeps warm. I just put it on, and I feel hot all over my body.Since the beginning of winter, it has been cold in the morning and evening, and I wear old clothes from before, which are hard and not warm, and I feel uncomfortable wearing them.After that, I have a new cotton coat, which makes me much more comfortable.

I glanced at myself through the bronze mirror. The pink color quite set off my skin color. Looking at myself in the mirror, I had fair skin, delicate facial features, a straight nose, and a bright red mouth. I didn’t look like a farmer’s family at all. Child.Khan, who made her so beautiful?This face, this hair, and these hands are actually so white.

Looking at himself in the mirror, a little dazed, Liu Jiacheng returned home with the borrowed 150 taels, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw her sitting in front of the bronze mirror in a pink cotton coat.

Long black hair, fair skin, good-looking every frown and smile, I have never seen such a beautiful person, and I am dumbfounded when I look at it.Li Caiwei was combing her hair, when she saw Liu Jiacheng standing at the door, she immediately got up, "Jiacheng, do you think I look good in this dress?" As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed in front of him.

Looking up with a small face, a little coquettish, "Jiacheng, do you look good?"

"nice."

Li Caiwei pursed her lips and smiled, stretched out her hand to pinch the corner of his mouth, "Jiacheng, can you smile, don't keep a straight face every day."

Liu Jiacheng nodded.

"If you don't smile, it means I'm not good-looking." Li Caiwei turned around, pretending to be angry.

Liu Jiacheng shook her hand, feeling excited, he turned her around and forcefully forced a smile.

Li Caiwei snickered, "Jiacheng, your facial muscles are too stiff. It's alright, I won't make things difficult for you. Have you borrowed the money yet?"

Liu Jiacheng took out a bank note from his pocket, "My eldest sister borrowed 200 taels."

"Jiacheng, you send the money to Liu Ji tomorrow, and tell him that this matter is over. If Liu Huan...if Dad still borrows money, it has nothing to do with us."

The matter of Liu Huansheng was delayed for two days, and the seeds in the vegetable field had not been sown yet.

If all ten acres of land are planted, it will take two days.Early in the morning, she divided the seeds, and Liu Jiacheng dug a load of farmyard manure from the duck pen.The two got up early, hoping to quickly sow the seeds of ten acres of land.

When passing by the old house, Mrs. Zhou was drying meat in front of the yard.Seeing Jiacheng and his wife, "Caiwei, I heard you found the person who cut the greenhouse?"

"Second mother, it was Aunt Nian's third son Liu Donggen who did it."

Mrs. Zhou nodded, "Liu Donggen is usually an honest man and has no grievances with our family. How could he do such a bad thing?"

"Second Niang, the village chief's wife instructed her."

"The wife of the village chief is usually a good person. How could she do such a thing now? Go and talk to the village chief. The shed collapsed, and the village chief should pay some money, at least 50 taels."

"Er Niang, the village chief's wife is looking for someone to sue me to the yamen, and there must be no discussion about the compensation."

Mrs. Zhou didn't answer any more, and shouted into the house, "Jiaxuan, wash up and come out quickly, and help your brother plant the seeds."

Liu Jiaxuan knew how to wash his face, and when he heard his mother calling him, he quickly responded, "Oh, I got it."

"Erniang is a woman, so she can't help you. Jiaxuan is very strong, let him help you for a few days."
