Liu Meiling originally wanted to stay in the countryside to take care of the two elderly people, but Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu refused to let her.
There are still so many people with the surname Qian in the village; they are genuinely afraid that something might happen to their granddaughter.
After all, they and the Qian family were sworn enemies.
The Liu family was also worried about leaving the two elderly people in the countryside, so they eventually transferred Grandpa Liu to the military hospital, and Grandma Liu was also taken away.
The most troublesome members of the Qian family have all been arrested, and the remaining ones are a piece of cake for the captain to deal with, so he is the happiest person.
Upon hearing that Bai Yajing needed to change the cotton, he took on the task without hesitation.
There were also small cotton-fluffing workshops left over from earlier years in the village. After all, it was a large cotton-growing village, so the brigade leader simply got her a thick, ten-pound quilt that had already been fluffed in his own name.
Of course, the captain was also very satisfied with the money and tickets that Bai Yajing gave him.
So when Bai Yajing left, she also took care of the matter of the thick cotton quilt.
Moreover, she received more than she expected, just enough to make a thick cotton-padded jacket and trousers for herself and her uncle.
She had heard her grandmother say that winters in Kyoto were much colder than in Shanghai.
Once she got home, she started making it. Her godmother had a sewing machine, which was perfect for her.
Although her sewing skills weren't as good as her grandmother's, they were still decent enough to look good and wear.
It's terribly cold in the Northwest, so she needs to finish making it and send it over as soon as possible.
As for size, her godmother is about the same height and weight as her, so if her godmother can wear it, her godmother can too.
It took two days to make a thick cotton coat in my godmother's favorite blue. It's just a pity that she can't embroider; she didn't inherit my grandmother's excellent skills at all.
But considering the current environment, I think I'll pass and keep a low profile.
After writing the letter, I packed up the cotton quilt, cotton-padded jacket and trousers, and several boxes of frostbite cream that I had made myself, enough for my godmother to use until the beginning of spring, and went to town to mail them.
Next, it's time to do things for myself and my uncle.
Liu Meiling has been taking care of the two elderly people at home recently and hasn't come to visit her for many days.
However, the Liu family made a special trip to deliver a thank-you gift after they returned.
After sending the package, she happily returned to her courtyard.
As soon as I walked in, I called out, "Uncle, let me take your measurements. It's so cold here in winter, and our clothes aren't even that thick."
The clothes I brought from Shanghai were no match for the biting cold here.
Bai Yunshu put down his wood-chopping knife and came over with a smile.
"Do you have your own? Your uncle is healthy and doesn't feel the cold. Make one for yourself first."
When Nannan was born prematurely, she was in poor health. He and the old man searched everywhere for rare medicinal herbs for her when she was little, so he was especially afraid that she would get cold.
Bai Yajing picked up a ruler and measured for him, replying, "Yes! The amount the brigade leader brought is more than enough. Apart from the one for godmother, the rest is enough for each of us to make a set!"
Hearing her say that, Bai Yunshu was finally relieved.
"Okay, starting today, after I get off work I'll go to the back mountain and get more firewood so I can heat the kang (heated brick bed) up so you won't get cold."
"Okay! I'll do it too after I finish making two sets of clothes!"
The feeling of being cared for was still so wonderful; Bai Yajing felt a lump in her throat and a warm feeling in her heart.
