These past few days, she has been keeping an eye on the families who have come to propose marriage, trying to see which family has a better son and more favorable conditions.
In this way, the daughter will not suffer any mistreatment after marriage.
"The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, when will the clothing store take a break?"
As Wang spoke, her gaze fell upon Jiang Liu, the owner of the clothing shop by the stream in front of her door.
Qiu Yan replied, "The New Year is almost here, it's the time to buy new clothes. Yuanyuan will be back by New Year's Eve."
Wang nodded in response to Qiu Yan's words, "You're right, I didn't think it through."
After diligent study, at the cost of several needle pricks in her left hand, Qiu Yan finally mastered the art of evenly sewing.
Next, she started sewing a quilt.
While Wang sewed, she carefully taught him from the side.
"Like this, with each stitch going around all four sides, the lining and the cover of the quilt will never be separated."
First, Wang laid out the cotton quilt lining, then put in the cotton, and Qiu Yan picked up the ready-made quilt lining and sewed it.
By the time she made the next quilt, she had already figured out the trick and started making it herself.
Of course, the lining and back of the quilt were pre-cut by Ms. Wang.
As Wang looked at Qiu Yan's neat stitches, she praised, "Little Yan is so clever and skillful, and her comprehension is also extraordinary."
Hearing what Wang said, Qiu Yan felt a great sense of accomplishment.
However, compared to the seams sewn by the Wang family,
"Compared to you, I am far inferior."
Wang sharpened the needle tip, smiled and shook her head. She made a living by doing embroidery and sewing quilts all year round, which was nothing special.
"You've only done so much. It's already impressive that you can start on your own right away. Nobody can become a fat person overnight."
Inside the courtyard, Ling Qi kept wiping the doors and windows with a cloth, but her thoughts drifted to the Li family.
Therefore, he took a shortcut and went to the Li family's house again.
In fact, he had already gone there this morning, but was kicked out by the Ye family.
Ling Ba paused slightly while brushing the horse, watched Ling Qi enter the Li family courtyard, and then turned back to continue cleaning the horse.
In the Li family home, Madam Ye was sitting on the edge of the bed, sewing new clothes for her two sons.
Li Zheng held his crying youngest son, Li Wenqing, in one arm and pushed his eldest son, Li Wenhan, in the cradle with the other.
Li Zheng felt helpless about his youngest son's constant crying and fussing.
Inside the cradle, Li Wenhan blinked his eyes and babbled obediently.
Ling Qi knocked and entered. Li Zheng looked at her, his gentle expression turning impatient.
What are you doing here again?
Gu Qian had finally stopped bothering him, but who would have thought he would change his tactics?
Ye's eyes also showed displeasure. "I said, Ling Qi, you come to my house several times a day. You don't find it annoying, but we do. Can't you give us a break?"
"Uncle Li, your thatched hut is drafty. The children won't be able to stand living like this."
New year, new beginnings, please grant Gu Da's filial piety a little..."
"Stop talking!" Ye interrupted Ling Qi, her eyes growing increasingly displeased.
Now that things have come to this, although she has let go of her prejudices against Gu Qian, deep down she cannot truly let go of what happened back then.
Furthermore, the old house holds their memories, and she doesn't want to move.
Ling Qi: "Why are you so stubborn..."
He stopped talking at this point, but Li Zheng's sharp eyes stopped him, so he had to go back and continue working.
When Ling Ba saw Ling Qi leave the Li family looking dejected, he couldn't help but shake his head.
General, you really know how to give us a tough time.
This kind of thing is much more difficult than going into battle to kill the enemy.
