Chapter 152 If Only Their Husbands Were Alive
As He Zhiran finished speaking, the scene became lively again.
Both the Xie and Fang families found it unbelievable that they could earn 500 coins by making a doll.
Even Mrs. Mo, who was behind the crowd, was moved.
As long as you make two dolls a day, you can earn one or two taels of silver. It's really easy to make money.
She also wanted to participate and earn more money to supplement the family income.
Zhao stepped forward again and said sincerely, "Niece-in-law, this material doesn't look cheap at first glance. Please don't lose yourself just to help us."
He Zhiran knew it would be like this.
She originally planned to make a stuffed rabbit and pay eight hundred coins for it. Fortunately, she said five hundred coins, otherwise, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
"Don't worry, auntie. The foreigner saw that I bought a lot of fabric, so the price he gave me was not too high."
"But you've done so much for everyone, you should at least make some money!"
Hearing Zhao say this, Xie's mother also stepped forward to join in.
"Yes, niece-in-law, please don't sacrifice yourself for everyone."
He Zhiran knew that these two people were sincerely considering him.
She smiled and explained to them: "Don't worry, aunts, I won't lose anything."
In order to stop worrying about this problem, He Zhiran quickly took out the cloth and distributed it.
Anyone who wants to participate in making dolls will be given a set of materials temporarily to see how good their craftsmanship is.
At this time, my sister-in-law came over with the long-eared rabbit that she had been fiddling with in her hands for a long time.
"Sister-in-law, my sister-in-law thinks this thing is not difficult to make. As long as it is cut out, we can start sewing.
I want to ask you, can I take the doll apart and cut it to size?"
"Of course you can, sister-in-law, just take the doll apart." She had originally planned to do this, and it happened that her sister-in-law also thought of this, so He Zhiran saved herself some trouble.
With He Zhiran's words, the sister-in-law happily took the long-eared rabbit and materials to prepare.
Seeing this, others followed suit, and He Zhiran's place was temporarily quiet.
Seeing the women leave, Mo Jiuye came over to help He Zhiran sort out the space food.
Several men from other families and the police came to help as they had nothing to do.
When they saw the unfamiliar food in the bag, they asked curiously.
"Brother Mo, are these vegetables?" Peng Wang picked up a vegetable he had never seen before and turned it over and over in his hands.
He thought to himself, I've been out for a walk before, why haven't I seen anyone selling these things?
Did you also buy it from a foreigner?
Also, it’s October now, and although it’s not particularly cold here, can such fresh vegetables still be grown in the fields?
Mo Jiuye has now also learned He Zhiran's tricks.
"Brother Peng, many of the things here are sold by farmers carrying loads on their shoulders. We thought they were fresh, so we bought them all, regardless of what kind of vegetables they were."
Peng Wang had no doubts. No matter how rare these things were, he believed that they were bought by the two men.
However, he was a little jealous of Mo Jiuye's luck.
Why didn't he meet farmers selling these things when he went out?
Mo Jiuye felt that his explanation was sufficient. In order to prevent Peng Wang from asking further questions, he quickly picked up a tomato and stuffed it into Peng Wang's hand.
"Brother Peng, I just tried this. It's sour and sweet, even better than fruit."
Without suspecting anything, Peng Wang took the tomato and took a big bite.
"Well, it's really delicious, even better than fruit." Peng Wang said, taking another bite.
His actions made the people around him very jealous.
Mo Jiuye would not show favoritism. He gave a tomato to everyone who saw it.
After eating, everyone said it was delicious, and looking at their expressions, they seemed to be still wanting more.
Even so, no one had the courage to ask Mo Jiuye for more.
Mo Jiuye took the initiative to take out some vegetables and gave them to the Fang and Xie families. As for the officials, he knew Peng Wang's temper too well.
Whenever there was something delicious, they would come to his house to eat for free and would never cook for themselves, so Mo Jiuye gave up the idea of sending them some food.
He Zhiran knew nothing about needlework and had no interest in it. After arranging the food, she returned to the tent to rest.
It was still quiet outside until dinner was almost ready.
When she walked out of the tent to check, she realized that she had been shooting herself in the foot.
All the women in the family, including Mrs. Mo, gathered together and concentrated on making dolls.
It seems that she needs to prepare dinner herself tonight.
This is fine, since my sisters-in-law may not be able to cook all the fresh food.
Seeing He Zhiran preparing dinner, Mo Jiuye took the initiative to help light the fire.
He likes the taste of his wife's cooking the most, but he doesn't want her to work too hard, so he never mentions it.
Today, I have so many good ingredients and I can eat delicious food made by my wife. I feel happy just thinking about it.
Besides, he now really likes this kind of ordinary life.
Although Mo Chuhan's body has not fully recovered, after careful treatment by He Zhiran, his movements are no longer restricted.
Seeing that his ninth brother felt sorry for his wife and went to help light the fire, he thought of his silly wife who would be happy when she saw delicious food.
Thinking of this, Mo Chuhan also planned to go and see if his wife needed any help.
After more than an hour of research, the women finally figured out how to make long-eared rabbits.
At the moment, they have a semi-finished product in their hands.
Although it is a semi-finished product, the only thing missing is the body of the long-eared rabbit, but the outline of the head is already clearly visible.
When Mo Chuhan walked over, he saw his wife sewing a rabbit tail.
That serious look makes people feel pity.
So he sat quietly beside his wife.
The eighth sister-in-law was so focused that she didn't notice her husband coming.
Seeing that he was being completely ignored, Mo Chuhan coughed deliberately.
When the Eighth Sister heard the voice, she turned her head to look at him and said with a smile, "Why are you here?"
Mo Chuhan took the half-finished doll from his wife's hand, looked at it, and praised it, "It's really beautifully made."
When the eighth sister-in-law saw that her work was recognized, she smiled so much that her eyes curved.
“I think it looks good, too.”
The interaction between the two attracted the attention of other female relatives.
Everyone envied the eighth brother's wife because her dead husband could come back alive. They wished their husbands were alive too.
Even if I can only live on simple food in the future, it is good to have someone to share my joy with.
Just like my eighth brother and his wife...
Because of Mo Chuhan's arrival, the female members were distracted from making dolls. They then noticed that the ninth brother's wife had already started preparing dinner in the distance.
The eldest sister-in-law stood up first and called everyone to help.
With the help of his sisters-in-law, He Zhiran cooked dinner much faster.
