Chapter 148 Borrowing Flesh
These days, Jiang Yu has been making clothes at home, and she is making He Feiyan's cotton-padded jacket.
It's getting cold, but her cotton-padded jacket has not been made yet, so Jiang Yu has to hurry up.
After being bored at home for several days, she finally finished He Feiyan's cotton-padded jacket.
He Feiyan couldn't wait to put it on, and took out the small mirror in the room, and asked He Zhengdong to hold it far away, so that her upper body could barely appear in the mirror.
"Sister, are you done? My hands are sore."
He Feiyan looked left and right, and it took almost 20 minutes. It can be seen that she likes this dress very much.
"Okay, okay, I'm done."
She really likes this dress, and can't help but take a few more photos.
He Feiyan watched him put away the mirror and hurried out.
The cotton coat she was wearing was blue, and it stood out among the gray crowd.
Lin Donghua saw it at a glance, and she knew that Jiang Yu had been making clothes for He Feiyan these two days.
"Feiyan, this is the cotton coat your sister-in-law made for you, it's really beautiful."
He Feiyan smiled with her eyes curved, and the corners of her lips were as sweet as honey.
"Sister-in-law, it's just made, isn't the color beautiful?"
Lin Donghua nodded repeatedly, "It looks good, a young lady like you should wear bright colors to look good."
She was envious in her heart, thinking that she hadn't made a new cotton coat for several years.
There were cloth coupons and cotton in the family, and they were all made for the old and the young, so she could only wronged herself.
But there are female comrades who don't love beauty, they just don't have the conditions.
Xu Lihua squinted her eyes and looked at the clothes on He Feiyan.
Nowadays, most fabrics are of the same colors and patterns. There are fewer bright colors, so they are naturally tight.
The fabric on He Feiyan's body is obviously good, and it is not a defective fabric.
She felt sour and snorted.
"Your sister-in-law is really willing to make clothes for you with such good fabric."
He Feiyan raised her chin proudly, "This piece of fabric is my sister-in-law's dowry. She is very good to us siblings. Aunt Xu, you have to remember this and stop picking on us all the time."
Aunt Xu was choked and her face turned blue. If you don't learn good things, you will learn bad things. Just like Jiang Yu, you can scold people.
"After Jiang Yu came into the family, she made several cotton-padded clothes for you. How come your family has so much cotton? It seems like you can use it up."
He Feiyan naturally would not tell her where the cotton came from. She only said, "My sister-in-law took apart the cotton quilt from the dowry and made clothes for us. My sister-in-law said that the dowry is for the dead and the people are alive. The cotton quilt is not as important as us."
Hearing this, Old Master Duan nodded repeatedly and praised Jiang Yu for being generous and being good to his brothers and sisters.
It made Xu Lihua's previous actions even more dirty and embarrassing.
He Feiyan went around and no one in the compound didn't know about the new cotton-padded clothes Jiang Yu made for her.
Jiang Li looked at her with envy and asked Zeng Chang to buy some cloth for her to make clothes.
But Zeng Chang said that he didn't have a cloth coupon.
Jiang Li didn't believe it: "You live alone, but you don't have many nice clothes. Even your quilt is cold and hard, and you have to cover yourself with the quilt I brought as a dowry. Then tell me, where have all your money and notes gone in these years?"
She originally thought that people in the city were respectable, but after getting married, she found that Zeng Chang had a respectable status, but there was nothing respectable about him.
Two days ago, the money for the banquet was paid to the Peng family, and there was only 280 yuan left in the family, not even a passbook!
This ear room was divided into two rooms, one of which was barely used as the main room, and cooking was done at the door. There
was only a bed and a table inside, and there was not even a wardrobe.
Jiang Li was miserable. Today, he didn't even buy a piece of meat. He was going back to the countryside with only two taels of brown sugar. How embarrassing!
Zeng Chang said impatiently: "You said you don't have it, so you don't have it. I'll exchange it for cloth coupons for you when you get paid next month, okay?"
Jiang Li reluctantly accepted it, thinking that he would definitely hold the money in his hand when he got paid.
"I won't say anything else. Today, you have to borrow a meat coupon so that we can buy half a pound of meat."
Zeng Chang was dissatisfied, but thinking of the ecstasy of the past few nights, it would not be a big deal to indulge her a few times.
"Okay, I'll go ask Xiao He."
Jiang Li's eyes flashed slightly, thinking that if she asked Jiang Yujia well, maybe she wouldn't have to pay it back later.
But He Tingyue refused, saying that he didn't have a meat coupon for the time being.
Zeng Chang returned home disappointed, and Jiang Li urged him to go find Jiang Yu.
"She still has some bacon at home, can you ask her to buy half a pound of it?"
Zeng Chang was reluctant to ask, but Jiang Li kept urging him.
He had no choice but to go find Jiang Yu and ask her to buy half a pound of bacon.
Jiang Yu thought it was funny, "Uncle Zeng, the bacon hasn't been dried yet. If you ask me in two days, I will definitely buy it for you."
Asking someone to borrow something and giving them an order, who wants to borrow it?
Zeng Chang frowned and had to turn around and borrow meat coupons from Tong Fang.
Tong Fang was very generous and directly took out a pound of meat coupons.
But he heard Sister Li saying sadly: "Ah Fang, didn't you say last time that you would send half a catty of meat to my two children who are suffering in the countryside? If you lend the ticket, my children will have nothing to eat. It's a pity that they can't eat meat once a year in the countryside."
Tong Fang was embarrassed. His bad kindness was indiscriminate and was the same to everyone.
Hearing Sister Li say this, he felt torn.
"How about I lend Uncle Zeng half a catty, and send the other half a catty to your children in the countryside."
Zeng Chang nodded and thought it was feasible.
"Then I will cut the meat for you?"
Tong Fang agreed: "Then I'll trouble Uncle Zeng."
Zeng Chang waved his hand, and he hurried away. Sister Li looked at him as if he had stolen her meat.
It was strange that Tong Fang's own sons could not eat meat and looked malnourished, but he still had food left over to support other people's children.
After buying the meat, Jiang Li followed him back home in a dignified manner.
Xu Lihua saw the sourness in Sun's mother's eyes and couldn't help but say a few words: "This old Zeng is indeed a married man. He knows how to love his wife. The meat must be half a pound, right?"
Sun's mother almost poked her palms. In the past, Zeng often tried to get the money from him after receiving his salary.
Now that Jiang Li is in control, it may be difficult.
But in front of Xu Lihua, she still pretended to be generous.
"If you marry a wife, you have to live a good life. I also hope that he and Jiang Li can be well."
Xu Lihua smiled, "You are quite generous."
Not long after, she saw Duan Yuzhen again, and immediately ignored Sun's mother.
"Didn't Duan Yuzhen say she wanted to sever ties with the family last time? Why is
she here again today?" Grandmother Sun said calmly, "We are all family, how can we sever ties? She must come today to visit her parents."
Xu Lihua curled her lips with disdain, and saw Yan Wenxuan also came, and it was really a visit to her parents' home.
"She used to be a smart child, how could she be fooled by a man?"
