She knew that the hard life she had lived through over the years and their previous attitude must have hurt Ningning.
No matter how much you say, it is useless. You can only prove it with your actions in the future.
Zhang Ailian tried hard to suppress her emotions and sore eyes, and forced a smile, saying: "Ningning, you said you don't like the clothes Fangfang left behind, so I will take them away. In two days, mother will make new clothes for you."
Each piece of Xu Fangfang's clothes was made by Zhang Ailian herself. She has several sets of clothes for all four seasons.
It was also when she was tidying up that Zhang Ailian discovered that apart from the clothes she was wearing when she left that day, Xu Fangfang did not take anything else with her.
It can be seen that Xu Fangfang left these clothes just as Ningning said.
Firstly, he wanted to keep Ningning to stimulate her, and secondly, he felt that these clothes were not worthy of her future identity as a city dweller.
Touching the clothes in her hands, Zhang Ailian realized clearly for the first time that Xu Fangfang, her adopted daughter, actually looked down on this family in her heart and was not as kind as she appeared to be on the surface.
Zhang Ailian didn't intend to leave these clothes to bother Ningning.
She planned to exchange these clothes for cloth and use the new cloth to make two new clothes for Ningning.
She believed that the villagers were willing to change.
"Oh, okay, okay." Xu Jinning nodded blankly.
To be honest, she felt a little strange about Zhang Ailian's change. According to the plot, shouldn't she be forced to wear Xu Fangfang's clothes, and ridicule her if she doesn't wear them? How did it develop into taking Xu Fangfang's clothes away and making new clothes for her?
Xu Jinning couldn't quite understand it, but it was a good thing that things could develop in this way.
Zhang Ailian saw that Xu Jinning was obviously very excited, and her originally depressed mood improved a little.
After taking Xu Fangfang's clothes out, Zhang Ailian came in with a ruler to help Xu Jinning measure his size.
"Only after measuring the size can the clothes be made."
"Oh, okay." Xu Jinning naturally did not refuse and got off the bed.
Xu Jinning could clearly feel that after eating lunch and drinking chicken soup, her physical strength had recovered a lot. As expected, people are made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will feel hungry.
"Stand still, open your hands, and I'll measure you."
"good."
It was not until she actually measured Xu Jinning's body size and accidentally touched the protruding bones under Xu Jinning's thin clothes that Zhang Ailian deeply realized that Ningning must have had a hard life over the years.
This body is too thin, not much flesh, just protruding bones.
Even so, how dare the Lin family still say that Ningning had lived a well-fed and well-clothed life in the city for more than ten years?
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Ningning must have had a hard life in the past.
But why before, they seemed to be blind and could only hear Xu Fangfang's words but could not see Ningning's poor health?
Zhang Ailian once again felt that as a biological mother, she really owed Ningning too much.
Zhang Ailian planned to prepare as many delicious foods as possible, including meat and eggs, and it would be best if she could ask her husband to find a way to get malted milk to nourish Ningning.
After hurriedly measuring Ningning's body size, Zhang Ailian left, not daring to let Ningning see her red eyes.
Xu Jinning looked at her back, thoughtfully.
She seemed to hear sobbing just now, although it was very light, but she really heard it... - The emotional Zhang Ailian returned to her room and cried again. It took her a long time to sort out her emotions. She came out holding Xu Fangfang's clothes and planned to go out to change the fabric.
As for Xu Xiangdong, he excitedly carried a bowl of chicken soup to the Youth League Home.
For fear of being seen and the smell of the chicken soup spreading, Xu Xiangdong even wrapped it up with clothes.
Because Sun Zhiqing had said before that she was rather shy, and before they were sure of being in a relationship, she didn't want others to know about their relationship for fear of affecting her reputation.
I also think that Sun Zhiqing is a very self-disciplined person and a good girl who cares about her reputation.
When they were almost at the Youth League Home, Xu Xiangdong hid the chicken soup behind a tree and then went to the Youth League Home.
This time at noon is the time for everyone to take a break and eat.
In the Youth League Courtyard, the educated youth also gathered together, and it was quite lively.
"Sun Zhiqing, Sun Zhiqing..." Xu Xiangdong shouted outside.
Soon, a woman appeared in the Youth League Home.
The girl with her ponytail raised high looks charming, especially her eyes, which are charming and affectionate.
The only flaw is that her nose is rather flat.
If you look closely, you can see that her eyes are always shining with shrewdness.

When he saw Sun Meiwen, Xu Xiangdong immediately smiled and walked quickly towards her. At the age of 19, a rare blush of embarrassment appeared on his dark face.
Even his speech was a little incoherent due to shyness and excitement.
"Sun, Sun Zhiqing, you are here."
"Well, hello, Brother Xiangdong." Sun Meiwen did not get any closer to Xu Xiangdong when she was at a distance from him. She looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that no one else came out. Then she took Xu Xiangdong away from the Youth League Institute without leaving any trace.
Thinking that it was noon now, she smiled and asked, "By the way, Brother Xiangdong, it's noon now, have you eaten yet?"
"I, I ate. I'm very full." Xu Xiangdong actually hadn't eaten yet. He rushed over as soon as the chicken soup was ready.
However, he felt very warmed when he heard Sun Zhiqing's words.
Sun Zhiqing, you are concerned about him.
"By the way, I brought you some chicken soup and chicken legs." After saying that, Xu Xiangdong led Sun Meiwen to where he hid the chicken soup.
When Sun Meiwen heard the words chicken soup and chicken legs, her eyes suddenly lit up.
He swallowed uncontrollably.
When Sun Meiwen saw Xu Xiangdong take out the bowl of fragrant, steaming chicken soup with a chicken leg on it, she couldn't move her eyes away.
After eating the other things Xu Xiangdong brought, Sun Meiwen knew how good a cook Xu Xiangdong's mother, Zhang Ailian, was. The dishes were even more delicious than those made by the chef in the state-owned restaurant.
Not to mention that this is chicken soup and chicken legs.
Since going to the countryside, Sun Meiwen has found it difficult to get enough to eat, let alone meat, and she often cries of hunger at night.
The feeling of hunger is really uncomfortable.
And at this moment, the chicken leg in front of her is just meat.
She could even imagine how comfortable and satisfying she would feel after drinking this hot, fragrant chicken soup.
but……
Sun Meiwen did not take the chicken soup, but said: "Brother Xiangdong, this is chicken soup and chicken legs, do you have any to eat? Why did you serve it to me? What about you?"
"I have eaten it, really. Sun Zhiqing, this is something I specially left for you. Don't be polite, take it and eat it. You are too thin, and you have to go to work every day. It is too hard, and you need to replenish your body." As he said that, Xu Xiangdong forced the chicken soup into Sun Meiwen's hand.
