Chapter 389: Domestic violence?

Xia Liang just listened to these words casually. Soon, the pants were finished. Xia Liang handed the clothes to Mrs. Liu, then picked up the clothes he had cut and continued to make them!

Mrs. Liu looked at the clothes while watching Xia Liang operating the sewing machine, her eyes full of envy.

It was the first time she saw someone making clothes so quickly!

When she got back, her mind was still a little confused.

As soon as I went out, I saw several women in the yard.

They usually hold their children or take care of them, some are washing clothes, and a few women get together to chat and gossip, and the days pass by especially quickly.

"Oh, Sister Liu, are you going to look for Sister Xia Liang?"

Although he has been in the compound for more than ten days, Xia Liang is not very familiar with the women here.

The commotion that happened this morning made many people afraid to say bad things about Xia Liang.

After all, this woman started fighting without saying a word, and if she found the instructor, I wouldn't be able to convince her otherwise.

Didn’t you see that after Wang Youdi came back, she hid in the house and didn’t even dare to come out to see the children!

Her husband hasn't come back yet. When he comes back in the evening, there might still be some noise.

"Yes, I am making clothes for my daughter. School is about to start, and I thought I should make a new set of clothes for her for her first time to school!" Aunt Liu said with a smile.

The woman washing vegetables asked hurriedly, "Did Sister Xia Liang make it for you? It's already done. Is she so fast at making clothes?"

The main thing is that they all saw it when Aunt Liu went in, and it didn’t take long.

Aunt Liu's mouth twitched fiercely. Could she say that Xia Liang had done this two or three times?

"Oh, Aunt Liu, you saved six dollars!"

At this moment, a woman in her twenties who was dressed rather brightly walked in and heard what several people were saying.

"Ding Guixiang, what do you mean by what you just said?" Mrs. Liu frowned, not understanding what she meant for a moment.

"Haven't you been to the department store to look at clothes recently?"

Ding Guixiang has short hair that reaches her ears, which makes her look more Western.

She lifted her hair by her ears with a smug smile on her face: "You haven't been to town for a long time? Oh, look at my memory. I know you are busy at home every day, so how can you have time to go to town? Besides, you have to take the bus to go to town, and taking the bus costs money."

Ding Guixiang spoke in a shrill voice, and the faces of several women changed.

In fact, the buses here are not expensive, and we are reluctant to go every day.

The main thing is that everyone is financially strapped and every penny saved counts.

"We've been quite busy lately. Our kids are about to start school and there are a lot of things to pack up at home!"

The smile on Mrs. Liu's face faded. She just couldn't stand Ding Guixiang's condescending look.

Isn't it just a matter of how much money the family has? Her husband is not from the countryside, and the money he earns does not have to be handed over to the family.

Ding Guixiang has recently applied to be a school teacher. She has been to high school before and I heard that there is a high chance that she will be selected.

Now her nose is sticking up to the sky, and those who don’t know her would think she is a high-ranking teacher.

In fact, in the minds of these women, teachers are indeed superior. They don't have to work in the fields every day, they just need to teach in the classroom, and they can earn a lot of money every month.

"Haha, it seems you really didn't go to the town." Ding Guixiang laughed: "Recently, the department store has launched a cooperative clothing-making business, and a set of clothes costs six dollars. I went there today to have a look, and the clothes made there are really beautiful! Let me tell you, the sales clerks there have changed into new clothes, and the styles are something I have never seen before. I also want to get one. But the clothing maker will not be there until tomorrow. Oh, I won't tell you, I must go there to get a set tomorrow!"

Ding Guixiang said this as she went upstairs, twisting her butt.

She was wearing a black dress, which made her look much more fashionable than the other women in the compound.

Everyone watched her twisting her butt and walking away in a sultry manner. One woman spat with disdain: "This Ding Guixiang is really sultry enough. She twisted her waist like this. Isn't she afraid of breaking it?"

"Oh, her husband likes her! But she is so lucky that she doesn't even have to send money home!"

Aunt Liu said this with envy on her face.

Another woman sighed, "Didn't you hear what she said just now? It costs six yuan to make a set of clothes at the supply and marketing cooperative. Mrs. Liu, you said that you really saved six yuan on that set of clothes?"

Mrs. Liu's face changed, and she thought of the colorful fabrics in Xia Liang's house. There were really a lot of them, probably more than a dozen.

Wait! Ding Guixiang said that the people making clothes in the department store had just started, and it hadn’t been long, and Xia Liang had only been here a few days, so all in all it had only been about ten days.

Could it be that the person who made the clothes is Miss Xia Liang?

Mrs. Liu was a little scared to think about it. She could earn six yuan for a set of clothes. How many sets of clothes could Xia Liang make in a day?

Her heart was pounding. She had thought making clothes might be profitable, but she had never imagined it would be this profitable!

If she had a sewing machine at home, she could also make clothes. She doesn't care how many pieces she can make in a day, but earning thirty yuan a month is good enough.

In fact, she was not the only one who couldn't sleep tonight.

There was someone making clothes in the department store, and a set of clothes cost six dollars. The news spread throughout the compound that night, and many people were thinking about whether they should buy a sewing machine to try it out?

In the evening, Xia Liang looked inside the kitchen and found that there were still some dishes to be ordered. She estimated that Ning Zhiyuan was about to get off work, so she hurried to the kitchen to cook.

It just so happened that after working on clothes all afternoon, she felt a little sore in her back and waist, and thought that changing the work would make her feel more comfortable.

I had just finished cooking and Ning Zhiyuan hadn't come back yet when I heard shouting outside.

Xia Liang was surprised, but she didn't want to care about those messy things. She went back to the bedroom and wanted to continue making clothes.

At this moment, there was a bang on the door.

Xia Liang hurried out and when he opened the door he found it was Mrs. Liu.

Xia Liang was still uneducated, so Mrs. Liu grabbed her arm and said mysteriously, "Come on, sister Xia Liang, I'll take you to see the excitement!"

Xia Liang didn't want to go out at first, but Mrs. Liu's words made her swallow back the words that were about to come out of her mouth: "It's Wang Youdi's!"

That woman who deserves a beating? Xia Liang didn't hesitate, closed the courtyard door, and followed Mrs. Liu out.

The shouting outside was louder, and one could also hear a woman begging for mercy.

"That Wang Youdi has a bad mouth and often offends people! She has had conflicts with others before, but she usually doesn't suffer any losses."

"Her husband came back today and was furious. We don't know what she did wrong, but it looked like she beat him pretty hard!"
