The material of this dress...
After her body warmed up again, Hua Shi could clearly feel that the material of this set of clothes was different from the rest of the clothes in the bag.
It's not made of cheesecloth, it feels softer, fits better and is warmer.
This is fine cotton silk...
A meal when spending time.
If it were before, she might not have understood the prices of goods in that era, but so much time had passed that she had paid careful attention and inquired about it.
Although coarse cotton cloth only costs five or six hundred coins per piece, fine cotton silk of a higher grade costs nearly two taels of silver per piece.
She was wearing a plain blue dress with beautiful patterns on the cuffs and collar, and the stitching was very fine. It was obvious that it would cost more than one or two taels of silver...
Xie Mingchi...really.
Hua Shi rummaged through the four remaining sets of clothes in the bag. Without exception, they were all made of coarse cotton.
When comparing the two, the gap is obviously bigger.
She also became more certain of her guess.
After reaching the conclusion, Hua Shi felt complicated.
“Knock, knock…”
The muffled knock on the door interrupted Hua Shi's thoughts.
Hua Shi tightened her clothes, walked to the door uncomfortably, and opened it.
I was so used to wearing coarse linen clothes that I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable wearing clothes made of soft fabrics...
"you……?"
The one knocking on the door was Hua Xiao.
The little girl half tilted her head back, and when she saw the new clothes that Hua Shi was wearing, she was obviously stunned for a moment. The words that were about to come out of her mouth turned around twice and got stuck in her throat.
Hua Shi subconsciously put his hands behind his back, touched the soft fabric behind him, coughed lightly, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hua Xiao blinked, regaining consciousness. His gaze refocused on Hua Shi's face, and he lowered his eyelids slightly. He said, "Dad just helped Grandma out of the house. I think your back injury has worsened, so you have to go see a doctor... I came over to tell you something."
When the little girl said the last sentence, her voice became noticeably softer, and her expression looked a little awkward.
"Okay, I understand."
Hua Shi nodded, not exposing the little girl's discomfort.
Since yesterday, Hua Xiao's attitude towards her has obviously softened a lot.
At least, this is a good sign...
Hua Xiao nodded sullenly and turned to leave.
"Xiaoxiao, wait a moment."
Hua Shi suddenly spoke up and stopped her.
Hua Xiao was confused for a moment. When he heard what she called him, his ears, which couldn't be hidden, suddenly turned red.
She turned her head and blurted out, "Who are you calling Xiaoxiao?!"
The little girl's cheeks were a little red.
Hua Shi's intimate address made her feel extremely awkward, and she always felt an indescribable feeling in her heart...
Hua Shi was not surprised at Hua Xiao's little reaction. The best thing to do at this time was to pretend not to hear it.
She turned and went back to the house. After a while, she came back with a cloth bag. Hua Shi stuffed the bulging cloth bag into Hua Xiao's hand.
"What's this…?"
Hua Xiao's rising emotions were immediately dampened by the bag of things that was forced upon him.
The little girl raised her eyes in a daze and looked at Hua Shi in confusion.
"Take it back to the house and open it. Go back quickly."
Hua Shi looked at her hands, feet and little face that were blue and purple from the cold, waved his hand, and signaled her to go back to the house quickly.
Hua Xiao was stunned for a moment, and his hand unconsciously touched the bag in his hand.
Her first reaction was that there was food in it, but the touch under her hand made her immediately reject this idea.
Urged by Hua Shi's gaze, Hua Xiao held the bag in his arms and walked back towards the house next door in a somewhat foolish manner.
Only after hearing the sound of the door closing next door did Hua Shi return to the room.
Looking at the wild boar meat piled in the bamboo basket on the ground, Hua Shi turned and walked to the end of the kang bed and took out all the money bags hidden inside.
She thought about it and decided to be safe. She didn't dare to take such a big risk...
She originally wanted to use the Hua family's small kitchen to process the pork directly, but after all the processing, she needed to refine lard, and there were also many pig organs that needed to be processed.
It is complicated to make, but the smell of refined lard is so fragrant. Even though Li is not in the yard now, the smell in the small kitchen is not easy to dissipate.
As soon as Li walked into the small kitchen, she could smell the strong aroma of lard. Once that happened, the wild boar meat hidden in her house would most likely be eaten up by Li.
With the experience of Li encountering the door of their house when she was chopping flowers last time, she also knew that Li mostly did things according to her mood.
Who knows, one day, she might get angry and come over to chop down her door...
Although she had already broken up with Li, she was not afraid even if they fell out again.
It's just that she had finally hidden something, and she didn't want to confront the Li family head-on so soon. For her, restraining her edge and quietly making a fortune was the safest choice...
"I'm going out for a while. You two stay in the house and help me look after my things. I'll make you something delicious when I come back."
Hua Shi put on a dirty coat over her clean clothes to hide her new clothes tightly, and tied her long hair with a hairband.
After quickly getting ready, he spoke out instructions to the fox and cat in the house.
The two guys squatted on the ground obediently. After hearing Hua Shi's instructions, they barked twice.
