Yu Xiaofeng called the people over, served them tea and water, exchanged pleasantries with them, and took the opportunity to thoroughly criticize Lin Chen's family.
“Let me tell you, they are a family that only cares about money and not people. My old lady is paralyzed at home, and just because we didn’t give them money, they haven’t taken care of her for a single day.”
That is to say, I am filial and cannot bear to see the elderly suffer, so I serve them good food and drink every day.
"Sister, to be honest, I also have a sewing machine at home and can make clothes. If I make your daughter-in-law's wedding dress, it definitely won't cost that much. Including the fabric and the handiwork, I'll only charge five yuan."
Seeing that the aunt was all smiles after being coaxed by her, Yu Xiaofeng took the opportunity to reveal her true intentions.
The woman hesitated, remembering that she hadn't gotten the fabric back from the other side of the street yet, and asked, "You really think you can finish it for five yuan?"
A bride's wedding dress is no ordinary garment; the materials and workmanship must be of the highest quality for her to look presentable.
Who knew that Yu Xiaofeng would pat her chest and guarantee it, and even secretly give her advice:
"What are you afraid of? There are so many of you, why are you afraid of two women? Even if you injure someone and cause a scene at the commune, you will still be in the right."
Hearing this, the aunt felt immediately more confident.
Exactly, what is she afraid of? If the fabric has already been made into clothes, then she'll have to pay compensation—that fabric is worth at least ten yuan! Or, if she doesn't have to pay compensation, she can just take the clothes for free...
Thinking this, she took out five one-yuan bills from her pocket, intending to hand them to Yu Xiaofeng...
A rough voice came from the doorway:
"Who was causing trouble at my house just now? Step forward if you dare!"
Seeing the money that was about to go into Yu Xiaofeng's hands being quickly taken back, the aunt came out to confront her with a dark face.
Yu Xiaofeng: "..." Her money!
When the aunt saw Lin Chen carrying a carrying pole and his face was so black it could drip ink, she knew she had messed with the wrong person this time.
"Oh dear, it's all a misunderstanding. We can talk this over!" A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle, so she immediately put on a smile, as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Ning, having regained her composure, stepped forward and glared at her angrily:
"Auntie, don't try to distance yourself so quickly. Wasn't it you who led them into the house shouting and yelling just now?"
My legs are still weak. I've never seen such rude people in my entire life...
She kept talking and even deliberately wiped away non-existent tears, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
The older woman gave a wry smile: "Girl, you were holding a cleaver and looking fierce just now, why are you crying now? We were just scare you, we didn't do anything to you."
"Psychological trauma is also a form of harm. If you don't give me an explanation today, you're not leaving!"
Lin Chen hugged his wife and coaxed her gently for a while, but when he looked at the aunt again, his face was filled with murderous intent.
The woman shuddered. Wasn't it her who came to cause trouble today, ultimately achieving her goal of getting them to make clothes for free?
How did things turn out this way?
"This... there are more than a dozen of you, are you just going to stand by and watch me get bullied?"
Seeing that she couldn't win the argument, the woman turned to seek help.
The people standing behind her were all women that the auntie had temporarily grabbed, with an average age of over sixty. How could they possibly beat Lin Chen!
Besides, I'm not in the right either!
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, Liu Fang hurriedly arrived on her bicycle.
She abandoned her bicycle, went to her future mother-in-law, and questioned her in a low voice:
"Mom, how could you do this? I had these clothes made by someone else, what right do you have to ask for them back? How am I supposed to face people after this?"
When the woman saw her daughter-in-law's angry expression, she suddenly realized that she had made a complete mistake.
She shouldn't have been misled into doing such a despicable thing. What if her daughter-in-law throws a tantrum and says she doesn't want to get married?
"Xiaofang, I just think their processing fees are too expensive, so..."
She slapped herself in remorse.
Liu Fang didn't say anything more to her, but turned to Jiang Ning to express her apology:
"I'm sorry, but to make up for the fright I caused you, I'm willing to pay five yuan for the work."
As she spoke, she reached into her pocket and realized that she hadn't brought any money with her in her haste. So she took five yuan from her mother-in-law and handed it to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning smiled:
"In that case, let's leave it at that. You've come at the right time; the clothes are ready, you can come and try them on."
"good."
Liu Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the other party was magnanimous, and the matter was resolved satisfactorily.
Wang Xiufen then took out the clothes she had finished making.
The fabric is exquisite and luxurious, the style is dignified and elegant, and it exudes a sense of opulence.
What was originally just an ordinary piece of silk cloth was transformed into a magnificent work of art through her skillful hands.
Liu Fang ran her hand across her clothes, her face full of joy.
Is this really her wedding dress?
It's so beautiful.
She couldn't wait to take the clothes into the room to try them on.
A few minutes later, she walked gracefully out of the room, attracting everyone's attention.
"So beautiful!"
Everyone exclaimed in genuine admiration!
The satin fabric made the clothes shimmer with a golden light in the sunlight, and the well-tailored cut perfectly showcased Liu Fang's exquisite figure. Almost every detail was done to perfection.
The aunt almost cried. Her daughter-in-law was so beautiful. Wearing such an outfit to her wedding would surely make the family very proud.
She wished she could be decades younger so she could wear an outfit like that!
She grasped Wang Xiufen's hand and thanked her repeatedly.
"Sister, thank you so much. I was rash today. I sincerely invite you and your daughter-in-law to attend the wedding."
Liu Fang looked at them with excitement: "Please make sure you come to my wedding."
Wang Xiufen and Jiang Ning exchanged a glance and finally nodded.
Since they've extended a sincere invitation, it's good to go and share in their joy.
Just as Liu Fang was about to leave with her mother-in-law, an older woman said:
"You guys go first, I also need to order a set for my future daughter-in-law."
"Haha~" Everyone burst into laughter.
Unexpectedly, this farce today has actually brought business to Jiang Ning and her team.
Jiang Ning readily agreed and busied herself discussing the details of the clothes with the aunt.
The aunt was too lazy to go through the trouble of buying the fabric herself, so she simply asked Jiang Ning to buy it for her. She paid a deposit of ten yuan first, with any excess refunded and any shortfall to be paid later.
Jiang Ning accepted the money and made a record in the notebook:
"Okay, then have your daughter-in-law come over as soon as possible, I'll take her measurements."
That evening, the girl came over excitedly and let her do whatever she wanted. It took half an hour to measure all the body parts.
This girl was a little chubby with a round face. Jiang Ning and Wang Xiufen discussed the style and color with her, and worked late into the night to finalize the details.
After the girl left, the two ate a quick bite and then spent a long time discussing things before finally making a decision.
Looking at his wife's serious expression, Lin Chen's eyes showed a hint of appreciation.
How lucky he is to have married such a wonderful wife! He must pamper her tonight...
