Chapter 48 Your sister-in-law won't eat you

Xia Qingxi walked to the door of Mai Miao's house with clothes. She didn't go in, but called Mai Miao out.

At this time, everyone had basically gone home from work and prepared to cook. A group of aunts and young wives were washing vegetables around the faucet in the yard.

Mai Miao quickly walked out of the house and came to the outside of the yard. When she saw Xia Qingxiong, she couldn't stop smiling:

"Qingxiong, why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

At this time, Aunt Wu came out of the house and was about to change the coal briquettes for the stove. When she looked up, she noticed Mai Miao. She didn't recognize her for a moment and asked in confusion:

"When did the Mai family's relatives come? Where are you from, girl?"

Mai Miao looked around and found that Aunt Wu was talking about herself. She laughed out loud:

"Aunt Wu, take a closer look at who I am?"

Aunt Wu looked at her carefully for several times, and finally realized what was going on. She shouted in surprise:

"Oh my god, Mai Miao! It's Mai Miao! Why don't you look like yourself?"

Her voice attracted the attention of everyone around. After seeing that it was Mai Miao, everyone gathered around her and said in unison:

"Mai Miao, how did you become so beautiful?"

"Where did you buy this skirt? It's so beautiful!"

"And your face, who did it? Your eyes have become bigger and your face is smaller, it's so beautiful!"

Mai Miao, who was surrounded in the middle, said with great pride:

"This is all done by Qingxi."

"Lu Er's wife, when did you learn how to put on makeup, and you look so beautiful." The people around looked at Xia Qingxi with some confusion and asked.

"Qingxi is not only good at makeup, but also very skillful. The skirt I'm wearing was made by her using the scraps of cloth she bought yesterday." Mai Miao praised her.

She was now Xia Qingxi's little fan girl, and her eyes were full of admiration when she looked at Xia Qingxi.

When they heard that the skirt was made of scraps of cloth, everyone was stunned, and at the same time, they said in disbelief:

"How is it possible? Mai Miao, are you kidding us?"

"Who is kidding? Look, the fabrics of the skirt are all spliced ​​together." Mai Miao said and showed it to everyone.

"It's really made of scraps of cloth." After seeing it, the people around couldn't help but praise:

"Lu Er's wife, you are really amazing."

Mai Miao really liked this skirt so much that she took Xia Qingxi's hand and said:

"Qingxi, can you sell this skirt to me?" After thinking for a while, she said: "Just 20 yuan, okay?"

Although this dress is made of scraps of cloth, He Shanshan's red skirt was sold for 20 yuan, and the one she was wearing was so much more beautiful than hers that she felt that she had taken advantage of Xia Qingxi for 20 yuan.

"But I don't have that much money now. Can I pay you back slowly when I save up some money?" Mai Miao said a little embarrassedly.

Seeing her cautious look, Xia Qingxi thought she was really cute, and waved her hand and said,

"No need to pay, I'll give it to you."

Xia Qingxi made this skirt according to Mai Miao's size, and originally planned to give it to her.

"Really!" Mai Miao couldn't believe her ears. Such a beautiful skirt was given to her for free. She was happy but felt it was not very kind, so she hurriedly said,

"But you don't have any clothes either. You made one with great difficulty, but gave it to me."

"I still have a lot of fabrics, so I can make four or five more." Xia Qingxi said with a smile.

After hearing her words, they remembered what He Shanshan said yesterday, that a pile of scraps of cloth only cost three yuan, and three yuan could make five or six such clothes. A young wife next to them immediately said with envy:

"Lu Er's wife, I'm going to the store to buy some scraps of cloth, can you make one for me?"

Hearing her say this, the other sisters-in-law couldn't help but say,

"Make one for me too."

"Me, me."

"I want to make one, too."

Seeing that everyone wanted Xia Qingxi to help make clothes, Mai Miao immediately felt distressed and helped Xia Qingxi to refuse:

"How can that be? If everyone makes one, Qingling will be exhausted!"

Hearing the commotion in the yard, He Shanshan, who was sitting at home, curiously poked her head out. From a distance, she saw everyone gathered around a woman in a blue and white skirt and talking about something. Unable to suppress her curiosity, she walked over to see what was going on. She

walked closer and closer until she could see the person in the blue and white skirt clearly. She was stunned.

Is this still the ugly girl with a round face and a big forehead? It's like a completely different person.

Not only has she become prettier, she has also put on beautiful makeup, and the skirt she is wearing is even more beautiful!

He Shanshan suddenly realized something, and was afraid that Mai Miao would use the words she said yesterday to hit back at her, so she wanted to run away immediately.

But Mai Miao had already seen her. When he saw her turning around to leave, he quickly grabbed her:

"He Shanshan, don't go! Didn't you say that you would show you the clothes when Qingxing finished making them?" After that, she lifted the hem of her skirt, turned left and right, and showed off the skirt on her body:

"Look, this one I'm wearing was made by Qingxing using the scraps of cloth in your mouth. How about it? It's not worse than the skirt you're wearing

, right?" She had not forgotten how He Shanshan had laughed at the fabrics that Xia Qingxing bought in front of everyone yesterday. Now she wanted to let her see how beautiful the skirt made of the scraps of cloth in her mouth was.

Looking at the two people standing together, everyone couldn't help but say:

"Really? From this point of view, Mai Miao's skirt is indeed prettier than Shanshan's."

He Shanshan, who was originally unhappy, immediately got angry after hearing this. She spent 20 yuan to buy this skirt. No matter how beautiful Mai Miao's skirt was, it was still made of a pile of rags. How could it be compared with hers? She immediately shouted at the crowd:

"What do you know? How can her rags compare with mine? Mine is Dacron."

The young girls and wives who were yelled at were not used to her and immediately said:

"So what if it's Dacron? It's definitely not as pretty as hers."

"Didn't she say yesterday that Mai Miao was ugly? Wouldn't she look better if she dressed up?"

"That's right. She also said Qingxi would paint people like toads. I think her makeup makes her look like a toad."

Hahaha...

The crowd laughed.

He Shanshan's face turned red and white. She had never been ridiculed like this in her life. She was angry and upset. Suddenly she looked at Xia Qingxi. Everything was because of her. If she hadn't made Mai Miao like this, no one would laugh at her.

Suddenly, she rushed to Xia Qingxi in a rage and yelled:

"You did it on purpose, dressing her up like this just to embarrass me!"

"Do you know it's embarrassing now?" Xia Qingxi did not show weakness, looking at her coldly and asked:

"When you insulted people by saying they were ugly yesterday, weren't you very proud?"

"You!" He Shanshan was choked by Xia Qingxi's words, she glared angrily and suddenly said sarcastically:

"She is ugly to begin with." After saying that, a smug smile appeared at the corner of her lips:

"If you have the guts, ask her to wash her face and then compete with me."

"Why can you put on makeup but others can't?" Xia Qingxi raised her eyebrows, and then said murderously:

"She is whiter than you after washing."

"You!" He Shanshan choked again. Before she could think of a way to fight back, she heard Mai Miao on the side also speak up:

"What are you talking about? You have the nerve to say that I'm ugly. Don't you see what kind of monster you have turned into?"

"Who is the monster? Explain yourself clearly!" He Shanshan asked angrily.

At this time, Yao Hongmei, the wife of Lu Lidong, who came back with her child, saw that her sister-in-law He Shanshan was arguing with someone, and hurried forward to persuade her.

But as soon as she walked over, her daughter in her arms suddenly burst into tears.

The child's cry was so penetrating that everyone looked over at the same time and saw that the little girl was so scared that she went straight into Yao Hongmei's arms.

"What's wrong, Yingying?" Yao Hongmei asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Mom is leaving... Yingying is scared, wuwu... the monster wants to eat people." The little girl cried and looked into the crowd.

Everyone followed the little girl's line of sight and fixed their eyes on He Shanshan's face. They immediately understood who the monster was.

Hahaha...

The crowd immediately burst into a huge laugh.

A young wife raised her hand and touched the little girl's head, smiling and saying:

"Yingying, don't be afraid, your aunt dare not eat you."
