"You don't need to ask. I'll take anything you like," said Yang Shuang.

Xie Yunjiao said "oh" and winked at the owner of the cloth shop.

The shopkeeper had seen all kinds of storms and immediately understood what God meant.

"Madam, the colors of those cloths are not suitable for you. How about I recommend these to you?" said the shopkeeper.

Xie Yunjiao pretended to be very interested and took a look, then said, "This cloth is really good, I..."

Before Xie Yunjiao could finish her words, Yang Shuang immediately said she wanted to buy it.

Yang Shuang was very proud of herself for repeatedly snatching the cloths that Xie Yunjiao liked.

Zhong Huaishuang was watching with fear. Buying so much cloth would cost a lot of money, and her mother wouldn't live here for long. What a waste!

No, she wants to persuade her mother.

"Mom, why don't we just stop buying?" Zhong Huaishuang leaned close to Yang Shuang's ear and whispered, "We don't have enough silver."

Originally, Yang Shuang just wanted to come here to buy cloth to embroider a handkerchief for Zhong Huaishuang, so she didn't bring much money with her.

But wouldn't it be shameful to admit defeat at this moment? How could she, the eldest daughter of Yue Man Lou, lose to a country bumpkin like Xie Yunjiao?

Yang Shuang gritted her teeth and said, "No problem. I'll have them deliver the cloth to your door later and have the housekeeper settle the bill."

Zhong Huaishuang knew that persuasion was useless, so she could only stand aside and remain silent.

"What? Not enough money? If you don't have enough money, don't fight with me." Xie Yunjiao said deliberately.

"What do you mean by no money? How could I, the eldest daughter of the Yang family, be without money? I can even buy the entire cloth shop."

"What a big tone! I just don't believe it." Xie Yunjiao thought that things had gotten out of hand. Yang Shuang really couldn't be provoked.

Zhong Huaishuang was shocked: "Mom!"

"What are you afraid of? Mother has bought the cloth shop and will use it as a dowry for you."

"Mom, that's not necessary. Dad has already bought me a lot of shops and farms. That's enough." Zhong Huaishuang said hurriedly.

"That was bought by your father, not your mother. Listen to your mother."

Having made up her mind, Yang Shuang waved her hand and said, "I'm buying this cloth shop. You are not allowed to sell any cloth here to this woman!"

The owner of the cloth shop was very happy. A lot of people had flocked to the town recently, and the prices of surrounding goods had skyrocketed.

He was thinking of closing the cloth shop and starting over somewhere else.

Now that someone has taken over, he is naturally happy.

And you can offer a good price.

"If you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. What's the big deal?" Xie Yunjiao pretended to be angry and took Gu Huai out of the cloth shop.

After Xie Yunjiao left, Yang Shuang gradually calmed down and felt a little regretful.

Buying a cloth shop is not as easy as it sounds.

She wanted to regret it, but she had already revealed her name. If she regretted it at this time, it would definitely bring shame to the Yang family.

She could only curse Xie Yunjiao angrily in her heart, and then asked the shopkeeper to go to the Zhong Mansion to get the money.

After Yang Shuang and Zhong Huaishuang left, Xie Yunjiao, who had been hiding in the corner, walked into the cloth shop again.

"Boss, I helped you to close such a big deal. It's not too much for you to give me a few pieces of cloth, right?" Xie Yunjiao asked with a smile.

"Of course it's not too much." The owner of the cloth shop was happy and had a good memory, so he gave all the cloth that Xie Yunjiao had just picked to Xie Yunjiao.

Of course, he didn't forget the Barbie pink horse that Gu Huai had taken a fancy to.

Xie Yunjiao's mouth twitched. Forget about the other cloths, but why did they give her the Death Barbie Pink as well?

She doesn't want it!

Xie Yunjiao and Gu Huai happily pushed the wheelbarrow and the cloth they had obtained for free back home. They immediately washed all the goose feathers they had just obtained and hung them in the yard to dry.

This time they got so many goose feathers that the winnowing basket at home was not enough, so Xie Yunjiao had to borrow a winnowing basket from Aunt Tian's house.

Aunt Tian and Niuniu were hiding in the kitchen, cooking and keeping warm.

Xie Yunjiao saw that Niu Niu was so young but was wearing a thick cotton coat that was so long that it dragged on the ground.

She wanted to help Niu Niu roll up the clothes, but when she touched them, she found that the clothes were stiff and did not feel like a cotton coat at all.

Instead, it's like...

Reed flowers.

This kind of thing doesn't keep you warm, it just looks thicker.

Auntie Tian couldn't help but smile awkwardly when Xie Yunjiao discovered her secret. "We really don't have enough money to buy cloth to make clothes, so we can only give our clothes to Niuniu. Anyway, I can warm myself by the fire with Niuniu during the day, and cover myself with a quilt at night, so I can stay warm."

"The child is still young and will easily get sick if he wears this kind of clothes," said Xie Yunjiao.

"But we have no other choice. We have no money, so we can only endure like this."

Everyone in the village lived a tight life. No one had much money, and most people's clothes were just stuffed with straw or reed flowers to make them look good.

Xie Yunjiao took the dustpan home with a worried look on her face. She felt uneasy when she thought of Niu Niu shivering with two lines of snot hanging from her nose.

She remembered that ancient books recorded that people in ancient times were short of supplies, and many people would starve to death or freeze to death when the weather got cold.

Although she is not a saint and cannot take care of everyone.

But Aunt Tian's family were very nice and took good care of them, so she couldn't just watch Niu Niu and Aunt Tian suffer in the cold.

"Doudou, Mommy will make clothes for Niuniu first, and then for you, okay?"

"Sure, I have clothes to wear anyway." Doudou said while sniffing.

"Didn't you dress properly? Why did you catch a cold even though you were wearing clothes? Is it because the cotton-padded jacket is too thin?" Xie Yunjiao said with a puzzled look on her face.
