I Reached the Pinnacle of Life in the 60s by Raising Children

Li Qingyun transmigrated into a book she had read, becoming the male supporting character's early-deceased, vicious biological mother. She took on the responsibility of caring for and educating...

Chapter 15 Getting Close to Aunt Jiang

When we arrived at the ox cart, Old Gu was smoking a pipe and chatting with the drivers from other teams, while the two aunts and the young man who had come together in the morning were already sitting aside chatting, it was very lively.

Seeing Li Qingyun coming over, the few of them obviously restrained their smiles.

Li Qingyun pretended not to see it, walked over openly, and said with a smile: "Aunts, have you been waiting for a long time?"

She didn't know the young man, so she just ignored him. After all, there are still strict rules for men and women nowadays, and married men and women should be careful when they are outside.

The two aunts looked at each other, smiled awkwardly, and replied, "I'm from the Tingzhou family, you're here too." This was considered a way of getting by.

I don't know why this troublemaker Li Zhaodi thought of greeting them today, but she looked very open and confident today. Her face was still the same, but her spirit seemed different. She looked especially beautiful. I can't describe the feeling.

If Li Qingyun knew what they were thinking, she would tell them that it was called temperament. Even if a person has the same face, the feeling reflected by different temperaments is obviously different.

Although Li Zhaodi was beautiful in the past, she was lifeless and impure-hearted, giving people a timid, gloomy and vulgar feeling.

Now it’s Li Qingyun, a girl with a firm and resolute heart, and a generous and cheerful personality, which makes this beautiful face even brighter, more dazzling and pleasing to the eye.

Li Qingyun sorted out all the things she bought and put them into two baskets, covered them with two pieces of cloth, and put them together with the white ash, then sat down next to the goods.

Now only Liu Cuihua and two others have not arrived yet.

Li Qingyun carefully noticed that when the two aunts came, they were clearly carrying two heavy baskets in their hands, but now they were empty. She also didn't see them selling things at the agricultural and sideline products purchasing counter at the supply and marketing cooperative just now.

Maybe he went to the black market?

"Auntie, are you going to use this piece of red cloth to make a quilt cover? It looks really nice." Li Qingyun looked at the red cloth in the basket of one of the aunties and took the initiative to speak.

"Hi, my little girl has found a date this year and is planning to get married at the end of the year. We have to prepare in advance, and it's cheaper to buy it now, otherwise it will be out of stock by the end of the year." The aunts were happy to talk about the happy event and were no longer reserved. The two of them chatted with Li Qingyun about their family.

Li Qingyun's years of work were not in vain. What she said was sincere and pleasant to listen to, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze. This made several people look at her with new eyes and wonder whether the previous rumors about Li Zhaodi were false. After all, she didn't like to communicate with others before.

This is exactly the effect Li Qingyun wanted. She decided to make the best of it. Although it would be more comfortable to live alone, humans are social animals. She can be alone, but her children cannot. Moreover, the society is in a complex period, and a big storm will soon sweep across the country. She must follow the trend of the times and learn to protect herself and her children.

So she had to make the villagers change their attitudes and opinions towards her. Of course, she couldn't rush things and had to take it step by step.

During the conversation, Li Qingyun got to know the two aunts roughly. The thinner one was Aunt Gao. Her husband was a barefoot doctor in the brigade and her family was well-off. The other one was Aunt Jiang, who was chubby. Her husband was a butcher and usually worked in the commune. He had a salary and it was a good job. Besides, it was always easier for her to eat meat than other families.

They both come from well-off families, no wonder they can get along well.

About ten minutes later, Liu Cuihua and her friend finally arrived.

Old Gu put away his pipe, untied the ox rope tied to the tree, sat on the ox cart and shouted, "Get on and go."

Several people got on the ox cart like they did in the morning. The baskets of others were empty, except for Li Qingyun's basket which went empty, but now it returned full.

Liu Cuihua's slanted eyes looked around like searchlights, especially when she saw the two full baskets belonging to Li Qingyun on the cart, the envy and jealousy in her eyes almost overflowed.

Because she had been humiliated when she came this morning, she only dared to think about it in her mind, but didn't dare to complain about it out loud.

The return journey was not as comfortable as in the morning. The sun was high in the sky and it was very hot. In addition, I had to hold the goods, which was not easy either.

Li Qingyun used the floral cloth given by Sister Caixia to block the sunlight a little, and then she felt more comfortable and could open her eyes.

The two aunts' eyes lit up when they saw her floral fabric. They were both from young girls' families. Aunt Gao teased, "Tingzhou's family, your floral fabric is really beautiful. It will definitely look great if it's made into a floral skirt."

"Hey, it does look good, but it's a piece of defective cloth. Look, this piece is unevenly dyed and a bit blurry. Someone gave it to me. I took it because it was cheap and didn't require a ticket." Li Qingyun also felt that this piece of cloth with small yellow flowers was very fresh and in line with her aesthetic, but she couldn't say it that way.

"It's okay. After you cut this piece, the rest will be enough to make two dresses according to your body shape." Aunt Jiang said after looking at her figure. She was good at making clothes. Her family was a tailor, so she was very accurate in her estimation.

Seeing that she liked the floral cloth so much, Li Qingyun had an idea. This Aunt Jiang was the one who bought the red cloth to make quilt covers and prepared a dowry for her little girl. The man in her family must have connections to slaughter pigs. In the future, if she wanted to eat some meat from time to time, she could buy it from them, which would be a bright spot.

Although space exists, it cannot appear out of thin air.

"Aunt Jiang, do you like it? This piece of cloth can make two pieces anyway. If you want it, I'll give you one piece of cloth."

"That's great, you're from the Tingzhou family. Thank you very much. I'll buy the cloth from you at the original price." Aunt Jiang had actually wanted to speak up a long time ago, but she was embarrassed. After all, they were not very familiar with each other.
