Chapter 58: Old Age and Frailty



She was so confident that she was right, and Jian Yuelan snorted, "Illiterate as hell, only a fool would believe that."

Handing her the cut fabric, he asked, "How did you come up with the idea of using corduroy to make a coat?"

"My cousin is getting married and wants a bright red coat. My aunt has come to me to ask for it, so it's hard to refuse."

Mrs. Bai took the cut pieces of cloth and looked at them one by one. She thought that she should ask Xiao Jian to cut this piece.

"What is this for?"

She took the individually cut strips of cloth with a puzzled look on her face.

"belt."

Jian Yuelan said succinctly, "Lock the edge and tie it around your waist in a bow."

"Will it look good?"

“You’ll know whether it looks good or not once it’s made.”

That's true.

"Come on, come with me and watch me do it."

"Okay, but wait a moment. I'll get some string."

When the embroidery thread is used up, it needs to be split again, which is also a time-consuming job. There is no difference between splitting it at home and splitting it at Bai's house.

"Okay, hurry up."

Then, Jian Yuelan took the embroidery thread to the Bai family.

She was sewing while Mrs. Bai was operating the sewing machine. In the middle of the process, Chen Qiuju came with her big belly.

The more Jian Yuelan looked at her belly, the more she felt something was wrong. After she sat down, she couldn't help but ask, "How many months are you pregnant?"

"Almost four months, what's the matter?"

Chen Qiuju sat in the chair feeling uncomfortable all over. She pounded her waist and said with emotion, "Being pregnant is so tiring. My waist is so sore."

"Sister Bai, you have experience giving birth before. Do you think Qiuju's belly is normal?"

Jian Yuelan rubbed her waist while staring at her belly in a daze. It was less than four months pregnant and the belly looked abnormally large.

It's too big, looks like a six or seven month old one.

Mrs. Bai, whose sewing machine was about to spark, looked up at her. She couldn't help but stop sewing and came over to touch her belly. "Has anyone in your family ever had twins?"

"have."

Chen Qiuju's face changed. She looked down at her belly and said in a faint voice, "My mom and my aunt are twins, and my uncle and aunt are boy and girl twins."

"I, I didn't carry two too, did I?!"

Jian Yuelan and Bai Saozi exchanged glances and said in unison, "I guess that's it."

"No, I have to go check it out."

She stood up and walked out, and Jian Yuelan and Mrs. Bai followed immediately.

"We'll go with you."

"Okay."

Lao Qin was not at home, and Chen Qiuju felt a little nervous. Jian Yuelan and Zhang Nan's volunteers made her feel more at ease.

As the three men arrived at the door, the soldier acting as a postman came to deliver letters and packages.

"Sister-in-law, there is a letter for you."

He was pulling a small cart and saw Jian Yuelan and the others looking like they were about to go out, so he quickly called out.

Jian Yuelan and the others came over. After searching for a while, the young soldier took out two packages, one large and one small, and three letters and handed them to Jian Yuelan.

"Sister Ye, this is yours."

"Thanks."

Jian Yuelan took the package and put it on the ground, then read the letter.

One was from her parents, one was from her grandparents, and she was stunned when she saw the address and sender of the last one.
