The next day, Cui Weizhen got up early. The information compiled by Master Hou and others overnight was also useful. Cui Weizhen did not waste a moment and immediately made arrangements for disaster relief.
Ye Zhenzhen couldn't help, but she was not idle either. She started looking for rags from the common people to sew hundreds of clothes for Xin Ning.
Shi County is a land as big as a palm. As a foreigner, Ye Zhenzhen's identity was quickly guessed by the people in Shi County. She knocked on the door of a house, and the enthusiastic people came after hearing the news.
Spontaneously bring rags from home to her.
Ye Zhenzhen was surprised and happy. Although Baijiayi's "hundreds of families" was just a false reference, it would be best if they could gather all the hundreds of families. Along the way, Cui Weizhen and Ye Zhenzhen only received four rags.
It's more than ten yuan. I didn't expect that I just went out today and not only collected hundreds of cloths, but also had a lot of surplus.
In addition, these cloths are gifts from the hearts of the people, and the blessings are even stronger. For Xinning, this is a very symbolic gift.
Ye Zhenzhen thanked the people who delivered the cloth repeatedly. If she hadn't walked so fast, the enthusiastic people would have even given her eggs.
After returning home, Aunt Cui was shocked when she saw a large pile of cloth held on the jade plate: "Where did you get so much cloth? Have you gone to the cloth shop?"
"No way, they are all gifts from the villagers."
Ye Zhenzhen told Aunt Cui about the grand occasion just now, and Aunt Cui sighed with emotion: "Although there is an evil county magistrate in power, the local people are very simple and warm-hearted."
Ye Zhenzhen nodded in agreement.
The rags were enough. Aunt Cui and Ye Zhenzhen continued to sew Baijiayi. After a day's work, not only was Baijiayi finished, but the remaining fabric could also be used to make a small vest for Xinning.
Taking advantage of the convenience of the space now, the clothes had just been made, so Ye Zhenzhen took them to be starched and washed by herself, washing them thoroughly inside and out, and then hung them to dry in the yard.
It was at this time that Cui Weizhen came back.
"Are you done?"
Ye Zhenzhen walked over in surprise, and was about to reach out to pull him, but when she raised her hand, she realized that her hand was still wet, so she pointed at the two small clothes fluttering in the wind, and said proudly: "Look, my mother and I
I rushed out Xinning's Baijiayi."
Two small pieces of clothing flutter in the wind, with tiny pieces of cloth pieced together. The colorful shape looks a bit different, but it is more meaningful than any other piece of gorgeous clothing.
Cui Weizhen had a lot of thoughts for a while. When he came back to his senses, he found that his wife was still looking at him with a smile. He couldn't help but smile softly: "The workmanship is good. These cloths look natural. There is no trace of patchwork. You have bothered."
As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief and wiped the water on her hands with a look of disapproval.
Ye Zhenzhen knew what he was thinking and said: "It's just washing two small clothes, it doesn't matter."
"That won't work. Your menstrual period is in these few days. You are not allowed to touch cold water. If you catch a cold, you will feel more pain than usual due to the bumpy road and fatigue."
Ye Zhenzhen shrank her shoulders with lingering fear.
This body originally suffered from irregular menstruation, which caused excruciating pain every time. After Ye Zhenzhen's long-term and careful care, it slowly got better. However, after giving birth to Xin Ning a while ago, her body suffered a lot.
The pain was severe in the first few months, but it slowly got better after taking medicine to nurse it back to health.
Dysmenorrhea is really every girl’s nightmare in life.
Ye Zhenzhen confessed honestly: "I will never do it again next time."
Cui Weizhen nodded with satisfaction and went with her to the central hall to meet Aunt Cui. He picked up his daughter and played with her for a while, then realized a problem belatedly.
"Where are Zhi Duan and Zhi Ming? Why are they nowhere to be seen?"
"They went out to play."
Aunt Cui said: "They are still young, and they are almost exhausted after traveling for so long. It is rare for them to settle down in Shixian County, so let them take a rest."
"The neighbor boy went to play Cuju and invited the two of them. I let them go." Ye Zhenzhen answered: "Don't worry, the guards are following."
Are you worried that he will be angry when you explain so much?
Cui Weizhen silently thought about his attitude towards his children, and felt a little unreasonable for a moment: "...Okay, it's getting late, let's ask them to come back for dinner."
As he spoke, he stood up. Ye Zhenzhen looked over doubtfully: "Are you going to pick him up?"
Cui Weizhen looked at her silently: Is there any problem?
Ye Zhenzhen: "...Okay, I'll go with you."
The child's father wanted to show his fatherly love, so Ye Zhenzhen risked her life to accompany Junzi, and the couple went out together to find the child.
The sun has begun to set, and the orange-red afterglow has become softer. Pedestrians are rushing on the road. Occasionally, you can hear the sounds of neighbors calling home, the barking of dogs guarding the home, and the quarreling and quarreling of couples...
…It’s lively, lively, and a picture of the world of fireworks slowly unfolds.
Ye Zhenzhen's steps became very slow, she held Cui Weizhen's arm and said softly: "I haven't heard such a kind voice for a long time, as if we are also an ordinary fireworks couple, busy every day
Lu Lu, calculating the cost of firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, and worrying about educating his son. Occasionally, the child ran out to play, and we went out to catch him together. If he didn't obey, of course he would have a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots..."
Cui Weizhen listened to her various thoughts with a smile, and his expression gradually became subtle. Ye Zhenzhen noticed it and looked at him angrily: "What do you mean? Are you kidding me?"
Cui Weizhen actually laughed, poked her swollen cheek, shook his head and said: "I don't know about others, but Zhen'er, you definitely can't live such a life. When you were in Yejiacun, you were ordinary enough, right?
?Look at you, you are selling mushrooms and making rouge and gouache. You are not ordinary at all, and your family has never been short of money. If you really care about a few taels of firewood, rice, oil and salt every day, without jewelry and fancy clothes, you
Can you bear it?"
Ye Zhenzhen: "...disgusting!"
Don’t you understand if you see through it without telling it?!
"The elm knot that has no sense of humor at all!"
Cui Weizhen: "...I have designed several jewelry patterns for your new jade stone. I can have it made by someone when I go to Mingzhou. Do you want to see it?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Ye Zhenzhen immediately turned from anger to joy and looked at him with a smile: "When did you design it? I didn't know about it?"
Recently he was either on the road or begging for Baijia cloth. He finally came to Shixian County and was also busy with disaster relief. Where did he find the time to design the pattern?
Cui Weizhen smiled slightly: "I drew it during my break."
Of course he didn't have time to draw the pattern. Isn't this just to deceive people? That's all I can say. But he wasn't afraid of revealing his secrets, because he already had a sketch, so he could just draw it out later.
