Traveling through the famine years, the best old woman, I was gnawed into the richest man by my children and grandchildren Chapter 126: Man is a grass with three knots, I don’t know which knot is better
Chapter 126: Man is a grass with three knots, I don’t know which knot is better
At first, she simply felt pity for Gong Xiaojiu and wanted to save his life.
Unexpectedly, this unintentional move saved a woman's heart.
***
The next day.
Lin Tao was awakened by the voices of Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Zhu in the yard.
The two ladies beside him were still sleeping deeply, so Lin Tao gently got up and dressed, then pulled the clothes that Li Qian used as a quilt to cover her, and then walked out of the door quietly.
"It's not bright yet, what's the fuss about?"
"Empress, come and see." Mrs. Xu came over with a piece of clothing.
Lin Tao recognized it at a glance. The clothes made of rotten cloth were exactly the ones Xiao Linglan had worn before. They didn't even have sleeves.
Later, when Youyou came to the house, Mrs. Xu found two pieces of coarse cloth somewhere and put them together into sleeves. She also attached a skirt and gave it to Youyou to wear.
It's not that I'm treating Youyou harshly, but I really don't have many clothes at home.
The clothes she bought from the market before were worn by everyone in the family, and there was no extra.
Later, Mrs. Wang's family sent three sets of clothes, and the three little ones had an extra change of clothes.
As for the clothes in front of me, except for the fabric, which has not changed, the style looks like it was newly made.
The sleeve edges, which were originally simply threaded, have been wrapped neatly.
The places where the fabric was previously worn and torn were now embroidered with flowers.
Either colorful silk threads or thick linen threads used for sewing and mending were used to embroider those little flowers vividly.
It's this gray color that makes it a bit hard to catch the eye at first glance, but if you look closely, you'll find it very beautiful.
Especially on the hem of the skirt, a louver edge is added to make the whole dress smart and playful.
"Mom, look at the stitching. It's as detailed as the painting, right?"
The original owner was not proficient in needlework, and she, a foreigner, knew nothing about needlework.
He could only nod his head perfunctorily.
To avoid embarrassment, I asked: "Who did it?"
Mrs. Zhu pulled Zhou Xiaohe over.
"Xiaohe made it! I rushed it out last night."
“Miss Xiaohe’s skills are really amazing!”
"It's not a skill that is worthy of publicity. I learned it from my mother for a few years when I was a child, so I can barely meet people."
"Oh! Your mother's craftsmanship is probably no worse than the embroidery workshops in town. Although I have never been there, I have seen the clothes worn by those ladies and girls a few times. I guess your craftsmanship is the only one!" Mrs. Xu couldn't put it down. Caressing the flowers embroidered on the clothes.
Mrs. Zhou nodded and whispered: "My mother used to be an embroiderer."
"No wonder! The craftsmanship is so good!"
Lin Tao raised her eyebrows: "Xiu Niang?"
You know, you don't have to be able to do some female embroidery to be called an embroiderer.
That must be a woman who has been trained by a dedicated professor in a famous embroidery workshop since she was five or six years old.
Mrs. Zhou nodded again.
"When my mother was young, she grew up in an embroidery workshop in the capital. Later, there was a war, and she got separated from the embroidery workshop, and followed a kind-hearted refugee to Qingyuan Town."
As he spoke, Zhou Xiaohe's eyes turned slightly red.
"My mother's biggest regret is that she was unable to return to the capital to meet her relatives."
The smile on Xu's face was replaced by sadness.
Mrs. Zhu hugged Zhou Xiaohe.
"Don't be sad! People are like three-section grass. I don't know which section is better. Maybe you can still have a chance to help your mother fulfill her last wish!" Lin Tao was not very good at comforting others, so she could only say the best.
Zhou Xiaohe shook his head in despair: "I accept my fate."
"Really?" Lin Tao smiled: "Since you have accepted your fate, then forget it! It is very tiring to convince yourself to accept it while keeping it in mind. This man! Instead of feeling sorry for himself all day long, it is better to make a decision. Goal and work hard to achieve it.”
Zhou Xiaohe's confused and dull eyes gradually gained more color.
"Go get some sleep! You worked hard all night to make these clothes!"
She not only altered the clothes of Youyou, but also mended all the clothes that needed to be mended in each room.
"I, I'm not tired." After saying that, Zhou Xiaohe handed the clothes to Mrs. Xu and asked Mrs. Xu to separate the clothes and send them back to each room.
The three women got together and got busy.
After Lin Tao washed up, she checked the tartary buckwheat seeds at home. It seemed that if she worked harder today, she could finish it.
More than thirty boxes of tartary buckwheat noodles took up less than half of the yard.
It seems that we need to set up a shelf and a shelf, otherwise, if it rains one day, the flour will be ruined.
Just as they were counting their workload, the four silly sons got up.
Just as Lin Tao was about to arrange what she had to do today, she suddenly heard someone shouting outside the hospital: "Village Chief Li! Are you up?"
Xun Sheng looked around and saw that there were more than a dozen grown men in the village, including Gong Ergua's father and grandfather.
"Is something wrong?" Li San asked.
"We came to ask the village chief to lead us up the mountain."
Li San was stunned for a moment and looked this way.
"Go!" Lin Tao nodded.
Li San, who never talked much, picked up his backpack and went out.
It seems that what happened yesterday was somewhat effective.
Li Si took the backpack and chased him out.
Lin Tao reached out and stopped the person.
"Mom! Didn't you ask me to follow Third Brother?"
"There's a lot going on at home today, so don't go."
"But……"
Lin Tao narrowed her eyes, and Li Si shut up.
Therefore, he arranged for his three sons to go up the mountain to collect bamboo and make buckwheat noodles, and the work could only be done by others.
Not to mention, after what happened before, these three boys became more and more human-like.
I went to the back mountain to collect bamboo and dragged it home again and again.
All the clothes were soaked with sweat, and no one was looking for an excuse to rest.
In the past, if these three people went up the mountain, they probably wouldn't come back until dark.
What was originally a day's work may not be completed in a week.
At noon, the two elders prepared the meal and asked them to eat first before cooking, but the three silly boys refused.
With the efforts of the three boys and the old man, the cargo platform was set up and the frame of the awning also took shape.
I'll go up to the mountain tomorrow to collect some thatch and bamboo leaves, and I'll almost have it ready.
Here, while the adults are busy working on their own, the three little ones are not idle either.
Xiao Li Qian and two girls have been busy extracting phages for Gong Xiaojiu.
What originally took an hour to do, had to be done for most of a day just because of Yoyo's inability to do anything.
Seeing Xiao Li Qian's helpless look, Lin Tao almost couldn't hold it back and burst into laughter.
Especially when the final product came out, the way Xiao Li Qian held the bowl was simply amazing.
Just like yesterday, Xiao Liqian carried the medicine into the east row house.
Just as he entered the door, he heard Xiao Li Qian scream in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Lin Tao rushed in.
"He, he..." Xiao Li Qian pointed forward.
Lin Tao looked over and saw that Gong Xiaojiu, who had been lying down for two days, could sit up on his own.
Ms. Zhou, who rushed in from behind, was as excited as a child. She rushed forward with a cry, hugging Gong Xiaojiu and crying.
After she calmed down, Lin Tao stepped forward and pulled her away.
"Okay, the baby is getting better. This is a good thing. Why cry? Don't delay taking medicine." This chapter has been completed!
