Old man Gu stood up awkwardly and went back to the house in a muffled voice.
He didn't want to tell anyone else that Xie Yunjiao cured Fan.
Xie Yunjiao ignored him. She and Gu Huai returned home. After breakfast, she was bored and soaked the wheat she had bought earlier in water, saying she wanted to make candy for Doudou.
Doudou's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Mom, can wheat be made into sugar? How do you make it?"
"When you are ready, mom will teach you." After soaking the wheat, Xie Yunjiao went into the house and took out the half-finished needlework, ready to finish the rest of the work while she had time.
She can cook, but she can't make clothes.
But the host can do it, and he’s pretty good at sewing!
Perhaps it was because her body had memories, when Xie Yunjiao was holding the cloth and needle and thread and had no idea what to do, many ideas suddenly popped up in her mind.
She measured Doudou and made winter clothes for him.
She has been very busy recently and her progress has been a bit slow.
Now that she finally has some free time, she wants to finish the work quickly.
It’s just right that the weather is getting cold, so I can change Doudou’s clothes.
The child didn't have any thick clothes, so he had to wear all his clothes. His body was swollen like a bear and it was inconvenient for him to move.
Gu Huai wasn't much better, but he was a grown man with a strong body, and he wasn't as afraid of the cold as Doudou.
She sat in the yard threading a needle, and Doudou sat beside her talking to the two little pigs, writing on the ground with a branch and teaching them to read.
Xie Yunjiao took a quick glance and found that he wrote very well!
She would occasionally teach Doudou to read and recite ancient poems. Unexpectedly, he was very interested in these and learned very quickly.
Every word seemed to be engraved in his blood, and after learning it once, he could write it accurately very quickly.
"Mom, how do you write the word 'sugar'?" Doudou asked.
"The word 'sugar' is a bit complicated. I'll write it for you. You have to read it carefully." Xie Yunjiao took the branch and started writing on the ground.
Doudou stared at the branches intently without blinking.
Gu Huai was planing wood and making furniture, and he felt very relieved when he saw the interaction between Xie Yunjiao and her son.
Being able to marry a good wife like Xie Yunjiao is the luckiest thing in his life.
He must cherish it!
"Okay, the clothes are ready. Want to try them on?"
Xie Yunjiao held up the finished cotton-padded jacket and showed it to Doudou, who excitedly began to take off his clothes.
One, two, three...
You have to take off six pieces to get the middle garment!
But even though he was wearing six pieces of clothing, he still felt cold, because those six pieces of clothing were all summer clothes, and they were picked up from Zhuangzhuang's clothes, patched up, with small holes everywhere, letting in air!
After putting on the clothes made for him by Xie Yunjiao, he finally felt warm!
He turned around in front of Xie Yunjiao: "So comfortable, so warm, thank you mother!"
"You're welcome. This is what I should do."
Seeing the child so happy, Xie Yunjiao couldn't help feeling sad.
She should have bought clothes for her children a long time ago, but all the money she earned was spent, and she really couldn't afford ready-made clothes, so she had to make them herself.
"Daddy."
Doudou ran to Gu Huai's side, without saying a word, and walked back and forth in front of Gu Huai, making Gu Huai dizzy.
"Doudou, your new clothes look so nice."
"Thank you, Daddy. I feel the same way." Doudou smiled happily. "I'm going to go play with Niuniu."
Doudou ran out.
Gu Huai then looked at Xie Yunjiao and said, "My dear, is the dress too small? Will it not fit you next year?"
"If it's too big, the child won't be comfortable wearing it. If it fits, it's more convenient to move around in. If it doesn't fit, we can just make another one."
Xie Yunjiao looked at Gu Huai and asked, "Can you stand up and let me see you?"
"What's there for me to see? It's not like I haven't seen it before." Gu Huai smiled. He stood up slowly, feeling a little shy.
"I'm going to make you a winter coat too. Stand still and let me measure your size," said Xie Yunjiao.
Gu Huai turned his head and looked at Xie Yunjiao in surprise: "Me too?"
He thought for a moment and said, "No, I'm thick-skinned. I'd better save the money and make you a set."
"I'm the person who least needs to wear winter clothes. I'm full of fat." Xie Yunjiao patted her belly but was shocked to see that it had become much flatter.
She asked why her pants had become much looser recently, and it turned out she had lost weight!
This is such a huge surprise!
"Gu Huai, look at me, have I lost weight?"
Gu Huai's eyes suddenly flashed with panic, and finally turned into sadness: "My wife, I'm sorry, if I wasn't useless, you wouldn't have to suffer.
Don't worry, when spring comes and the weather gets less cold, there will definitely be more wild game in the mountains. I'll catch more of them and sell them, and I'll definitely keep you fat and plump."
Xie Yunjiao: "..." Go to hell with your fat and white hair, she doesn't need it at all, okay? !
"Have you noticed that I've lost weight a long time ago?" Xie Yunjiao stared at Gu Huai without blinking. Seeing him nod helplessly, she continued, "This is such great news, why are you telling me now?"
Gu Huai was slightly stunned, and it took him a while to react. He looked at Xie Yunjiao in confusion.
"Ma'am, don't you like fat white guys?"
"Who likes it?" Xie Yunjiao pinched the remaining fat on her waist with a look of disdain on her face. "It would be better if you were a little thinner, so that you could walk more easily. Otherwise, if you carry hundreds of pounds of fat on your back like I do now, you'll be out of breath after walking for a long time. It's very tiring!"
Gu Huai was amused by Xie Yunjiao. It turned out that she didn't like chubby people.
He actually thinks being chubby is good. It's soft and warm when he holds it while sleeping. It's so comfortable.
"My dear, promise me that you won't be too thin. It won't look good if you're too thin."
Xie Yunjiao became thinner and thinner, and the delicate features on her face, which were originally squeezed into a ball by grease, slowly stretched out, becoming delicate and beautiful.
Moreover, Xie Yunjiao has very good skin, which never gets tanned and has a rosy white complexion.
With her now stretched facial features, she became more and more attractive, and the more he looked at her, the more beautiful she became. He even felt a little ugly.
He felt that he was not worthy of such a beautiful Xie Yunjiao!
"Okay, go ahead. I'll make you some winter clothes." Xie Yunjiao said with a smile, pretending not to hear Gu Huai's last words.
She doesn't want to be chubby. She will look more comfortable and beautiful if she loses weight.
Gu Huai touched his nose and looked at Xie Yunjiao who was humming a song while cutting cloth. He wondered if Xie Yunjiao heard what he said.
Doudou was wearing a new cotton coat and walking back and forth in front of Aunt Tian, smiling and not saying a word.
After finishing her work, Aunt Tian finally had time to look at Doudou.
"Doudou, have you changed into new clothes?"
Doudou's face lit up with joy and he said quickly, "Yes, my mother made this for me. It's so beautiful and warm!"
"That's right," Aunt Tian said after examining her. "Doudou, your mother may have run out of cloth. Why did she make the dress so short?"
