There were two people next to him, one had a domineering look and the other was silent and reserved.
Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian looked at each other, and Uncle Qian asked, "Girls, what happened?"
Aunt Qian twisted her fingers nervously, "Could it be related to my daughter Yixiu? Did Yixiu offend you?"
Ji Yunxi smiled slightly: "Don't panic, I am here for your daughter. I have something to say to her."
Aunt Qian wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Yixiu has married and moved to the city. If you want to find Yixiu, you have to go to the Elm Tree Noodle House in Changsongfang."
Ji Yunxi was very polite. She shook her head slowly and said, "No, she's probably in there right now. Could you please help me look for her in any place in the house where she could be hiding?"
Uncle Qian and Aunt Qian were shocked, and they reacted immediately.
Mr. Qian was immediately furious: "I'm afraid this girl stole the money again to buy things!"
He immediately rolled up his sleeves and strode inside.
Aunt Qian was a little flustered and hurriedly followed him in.
Ji Yunxi waited calmly outside the yard. After a while, she heard some movement coming from the house.
An old man angrily cursed: "What did I tell you last time! You actually stole money, you actually stole money, I'll beat you to death!"
There was a woman who wanted to persuade but didn't know how to persuade: "Okay... okay, the child's father, you, you don't have to be so harsh."
There was a young woman crying: "Dad, I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, don't hit me! Mom, save me, wuwuwuwu"
But it didn't last long. The two old people in the Qian family knew that someone was waiting outside the yard. They suppressed their anger and welcomed Ji Yunxi into the house.
The room was simple, with only a small table.
The two old people of the Qian family stood awkwardly by the side. They wanted to let Ji Yunxi sit down, but when they saw Ji Yunxi's clothes, they felt embarrassed.
Qian Yixiu lowered her head and huddled in a corner, tears in the corners of her eyes, her body twitching.
Occasionally he would raise his little face to glance at Ji Yunxi, then quickly lower his eyes.
Ji Yunxi watched it calmly.
Qian Yixiu had a woman's charming figure and a lovely appearance, so it was not unreasonable for her to marry into a city family.
Her husband's family was able to open a noodle shop in the capital and bought a large yard. Among ordinary people, they were considered a well-off family.
Considering Qian Yixiu's family background, she could be considered to have married into a wealthy family.
Ji Yunxi looked at the two old men and asked kindly, "Can I talk to her alone?"
The two old men naturally agreed and left this space to Ji Yunxi and Qian Yixiu.
Ji Yunxi took a purse from Baofu and walked to Qian Yixiu.
Qian Yixiu subconsciously shrank back and curled up into a small ball.
She didn't know Ji Yunxi, and with her limited intelligence, she couldn't guess Ji Yunxi's identity.
Therefore, Qian Yixiu was wondering in her heart.
She was so scared after paying the money yesterday that she didn't dare go back to her husband's house. She just ran straight back to her parents' house.
If she went back to her husband's house, she would be beaten to death. If she went back to her mother's house, she would be beaten by her father, but her father would not be so cruel. At worst, she still had her mother.
However, she didn't dare tell her parents when she came back, but hid directly in her brother's room.
"This is the money you used to buy clothes." Ji Yunxi reached out, grabbed Qian Yixiu's slender wrist, and stuffed the bag of silver into her palm. "I'm returning it to you."
Qian Yixiu suddenly raised her head and looked at Ji Yunxi, then she guessed the identity of the person who came: "You, you, are you Miss Ji San?"
Ji Yunxi smiled at her and nodded: "Yes. Thanks to you, your husband's mother-in-law threw eggs at me yesterday."
"Ah?" Qian Yixiu was stunned. It was not right to accept the money, nor was it right not to accept it. She didn't know what to do for a moment.
Her husband and mother-in-law are indeed capable of doing such a thing.
Qian Yixiu smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, I'm sorry."
Ji Yunxi glanced back and saw Baofu coming over with a bundle.
Ji Yunxi took the bundle and gave it to Qian Yixiu: "This dress is not the one you ordered yesterday, but the style and fabric are similar. I think you will like it too."
"Huh?" Qian Yixiu, "Are you giving this to me too?"
Ji Yunxi: "Yes."
Qian Yixiu was completely bewildered.
Pay her back the money and give her clothes?
Is there such a good thing in the world?
Ji Yunxi withdrew her hand and asked, "I heard that you've loved altering your own clothes since you were a child?"
Qian Yixiu took the money and hugged the clothes, and nodded without any defense: "Yeah."
Qian Yixiu has always had a bad reputation in Qianmu Village.
She has loved beauty and dressing up since she was a child. As a little girl, she knew how to pick flowers and put them in her hair. She thought clothes were ugly, so she pestered her parents for new clothes all day long. Later, she would use scissors to trim her waist herself, and so on.
The people in Qianmu Village all thought that this girl was a disaster and not someone who could make a living, so they were unwilling to let her marry, no matter how much their son liked her.
Qian Yixiu also looked down on him and wanted to run to the city.
Later, she married her current husband.
Because people would buy her beautiful jewelry and clothes, but they didn’t buy her much after they got married.
So she stole money to buy it herself.
Ji Yunxi has always believed that sometimes garbage is a resource placed in the wrong place.
She looked at Qian Yixiu in front of her and asked, "Then why have you never thought of becoming an embroiderer?"
Qian Yixiu said as a matter of course: "I don't like embroidery."
Ji Yunxi nodded: "What about the tailor?"
Qian Yixiu was puzzled: "What is a tailor?"
Ji Yunxi was somewhat helpless: "It's just a tailor."
Qian Yixiu was even more confused. "But tailors are all men. Can women be tailors too? Don't they not accept female apprentices?"
