Chapter 57: Tianjiaba, a beautiful landscape



Yang Liu had several cloth coupons in her hand, including the ones given by Chu Yue. After dinner today, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy several pieces of cloth, intending to make some clothes for Yang Bai. Now that he was going to school, he couldn't wear such tattered clothes anymore.

Seeing that the blue and white plaid cloth next to her looked good, she thought about the man's contribution in saving someone last time, so she took it and planned to make a shirt for him as well. She also bought two pieces of red plaid cloth so that she could make a shirt for each of her three sisters.

On the way back, she ran into Li Dazui. Seeing Yang Liu holding several pieces of cloth, her eyes almost popped out of her eyes. She said with envy, "Liu'er, you've become rich! Why did you buy so much cloth?"

These days every household lives a tight life. Even if they want to buy cloth to make new clothes, it is during the Chinese New Year.

This was the first time she had seen such a large amount of cloth being purchased during any other festival or occasion. She felt that young people did not know how to live, and her eyes were filled with envy and jealousy.

Yang Liu knew that Li Dazui spoke faster than today's paparazzi. If she knew something, it would be known to everyone in no time. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, she just smiled back at her politely and was too lazy to say any more nonsense to her.

Seeing that Yang Liu ignored her, she still didn't give up. She chased after him and said flatteringly, "Liu'er, I'm telling you, Chu Zhiqing is such a good man, you have to tighten the fence in the yard, otherwise all kinds of stray cats and dogs will be thinking of sneaking into your house, so you better be careful."

"Sister-in-law, if you really have so much free time, clean up your house so that the stench won't spread far and wide."

Li Dazui is a person who keeps an eye on what goes on in other people's houses all day long. If there is any movement in someone's house, she will get up in the middle of the night and eavesdrop in order to get first-hand information so that she can gossip with the villagers.

I feel like she was really born at the wrong time. If she were born into modern times, she would definitely be a gossip and entertainment reporter.

She doesn't care even though her own home is a mess.

Normally, the night fragrance in her house would linger for several days, especially when the weather was warm. The smell of urine and feces was so sour that her neighbor, the widow Liang, would often curse her family at the door.

So whenever someone smelled a bad smell in the village, everyone would tease her: Big Mouth, it’s been several days since you last slept with the night-blooming incense.

Knowing that Yang Liu was mocking her in a roundabout way, she didn't get angry and said quickly, "Don't worry, I just poured it out yesterday. I poured out a full bucket."

willow:"......"

That wasn't her focus.

And she didn't want to know about this at all.

"By the way, I heard that you tore down the gate of Widow Liang's house that day. How did she offend you?"

"You're really good at this. You even tore down her front door, and she didn't dare to say a word. Does she have something on you? Tell me, so I can get a hold of her and stop her from dancing outside my door all the time."

Yang Liu snorted in her heart and rolled her eyes at her silently. She had gone through so much trouble and she was waiting for her here.

Although she didn't like Widow Liang, in this era, if people knew about her affair, she would probably not be able to hold her head up for the rest of her life.

Not to mention that the man was her third uncle, even if he was an outsider, she would not take the initiative to reveal these things.

Besides, it is better to forgive others when you can. Although that man cheated her last time, he finally came to his senses and turned back. He is not an unforgivable person. There is no need to force him into a desperate situation.

"I really don't know if I have any leverage over her, but I only know that if anyone offends me, I will chase them to the ends of the earth to bring them to heel. If you don't believe me, sister-in-law, why not give it a try?"

When Yang Liu said this, her face was serious. When she was not smiling, there was a gloomy look between her brows and her eyes were shining with a dim light, which made people's hair stand on end. It was quite scary.

"No, then no, why are you joking with others like this? I'm a timid person and I can't stand being scared."

"Would you like to talk to me again, sister-in-law?"

Li Dazui waved and stepped back, smiling awkwardly, "No, I have to go home and cook for the kids."

After she finished speaking, she ran away as if someone had stepped on her tail.

Although this person is not a bad person, his mouth is sometimes really annoying.

Recently, the village has been busy repairing canals, and every household has sent people to help. However, some families have more labor force, while some families have less. In order to avoid passive resistance and mutual comparison, the secretary has stipulated that every family must send two adult laborers.

Naturally, it was Yang Liu's parents who went to her home, and it was her second uncle and aunt who went to her second uncle's home. In fact, it would be better if they were all adults, as they could chat about some common topics together, so they wouldn't be bored while working.

At home, Yang Nan's duties include cooking, feeding the pigs and chickens, and weeding the vegetable garden.

Yang Liu made an appointment with her yesterday, saying that she would bring the cloth today and ask her to help make a few clothes.

The last time she watched her elder sister making clothes, she felt that all she had to do was measure the size, cut the clothes, put them on the sewing machine and roll the edges. She thought it was quite simple, so this time she planned to let her elder sister guide her.

With her IQ, she should be able to learn it quickly. Yang Liu is confident in herself.

"Big sister, I'm here."

Yang Nan had just finished feeding the pigs and was about to sit down and rest for a while when he saw her coming over with a few pieces of cloth. He asked, "Why did you bring so much cloth?"

"These are made for Yang Bai, this one is made for Chu Yue, and these two are made for us three sisters."

"Zhizhi and I also have a share?" Yang Nan helped take the cloth from her hand and asked with a smile.

"Of course. I see that girls in the city are all in fashion wearing clothes made of this kind of fabric. They look really nice. Plus, we three sisters are so pretty, so when we wear them out, we'll definitely be a beautiful sight in Tianjiaba."

Yang Nan laughed heartily at her shameless words. He pinched her cheek and said jokingly, "Why are you so shameless now? I really want to measure you with a ruler later."

"Big sister, why don't you teach me how to make clothes later? I watched you do it last time and it didn't seem that difficult." Yang Liu took her arm and said coquettishly.

"Okay, I'm just afraid you'll be a fleeting enthusiast."

While Yang Nan was making Yang Bai's clothes, Yang Liu decided to make her debut on Chu Yue's clothes. She worked hard at the table outside until Yang Zhi and the others came back from school, and she had only made two sleeves.
