The atmosphere was heavy for a moment. Li Yan didn't know how to comfort Mr. Zhou, so she quickly changed the subject and talked about other things.

When the boat docked, they paid the fare, Li Yan said goodbye to Mr. Zhou, and they carried their packages and went home.

When I returned to the village entrance, I found Lin standing at the door, looking at the path. She was really worried about these people being out for half a day.

Seeing several people coming back with large and small bags, he couldn't help complaining: "This kid, he's been out for most of the day, why is he only back now!"

Li Yan didn't want to make Lin worry, so she took her home and said, "I bought a lot of fabrics. Mom, you can pick some out and send them to grandpa and grandma."

Lin was diverted by her daughter and returned home. She piled the bought cloth on the table, covering the table with pieces of cloth.

Lin said to her daughter with some disapproval: "The family is short of money right now, why did you buy these again!"

Li Yan explained: "Mom, I have wanted to tear some cloth to make clothes for you for a long time. Look at what I'm wearing." After saying that, she turned around to show Lin the clothes she was wearing.

Lin looked at her daughter's clothes and found that they were not only too short but also patched.

Li Yan continued to explain, "When we buy fabric to make new clothes, we can't forget our grandparents, right? Uncle and his family didn't charge us for building our house, so shouldn't we give them some for new clothes too?"

Lin was persuaded by her daughter and began to help choose the fabrics. She took out several pieces of crimson purple, navy blue and pea green fabrics and gave them to Li Yan to send to the next door.

Li Yan took the cloth with a smile and moved it towards her breasts.

At this time, Daya and her little cousin were sitting on small bamboo stools drinking water, while her uncle and old man Li were sitting in the yard weaving baskets with bamboo.

As soon as Li Yan entered the room, she called her grandma. Wu came out of the room and saw Li Yan holding a pile of cloth in her hands. She hurried forward to help: "Where did you get the material?"

Li Yan went into the room while explaining, "We haven't made new clothes this year yet. I went to town today and bought a set for everyone. Grandma, please work hard and make clothes for everyone!"

Hearing her say this, Wu couldn't help but free up a hand and poked Li Yan's head: "Why is this child so opinionated? Do you still want to live like this?"

At this time, the eldest aunt also came out of the room. She saw Li Yan coming in with the cloth early in the morning. She hurried forward to take the cloth from Li Yan's hand and persuaded Wu: "This is all the child's wish!"

After drinking the water, Daya also came to Wu's side, handed the wallet in her arms to Wu, and told her about what happened when she met her eldest brother in the town in the morning.

The aunt-in-law was so jealous when she saw the purse in her daughter's hand. It looked so heavy and she had no idea how much money was in it.

Mrs. Wu carefully placed the cloth on the table, turned around and took the purse from Daya, and when she opened it, she found that there were still silver coins.

I couldn't help but feel puzzled, so I poured out the money and counted it carefully. There was actually one or three taels of silver.

Mrs. Wu murmured, "Where did this kid get all this money?"

Li Yan remembered what her cousin said last time and explained to everyone: "My cousin said last time that it was a reward from Shopkeeper Qian!"

Only then did Mrs. Wu feel relieved. Li Yan didn't want to be caught by her grandmother and continue to educate her, so she put down the cloth and quickly ran away.

Running back home, Lin waved to Li Yan.

Li Yan obediently walked towards Lin, who took a measuring tape and began to measure her daughter's size, muttering, "I noticed you've grown quite a bit taller this year, and the arms and legs of your clothes seem to be a lot shorter."

Li Yan nodded hurriedly. You know, just now in the shop, if Daya hadn't stopped her from buying ready-made clothes, she would have wanted to buy herself two new clothes!
