The fabric is clean and smooth, filled with thick cotton. It's a bit larger than his current size, and he could wear it for another ten years, next year, the year after, and still be fine.
He was already quite grown up then, perhaps old enough to get married. If he cherished his clothes, he could save them for his future children!
In an instant, a lot of thoughts flashed through Da Wa's mind, and his eyes reddened.
It's so warm and beautiful! He loves it!
Tian Youwei and the other children looked at it again and again, clenching their hands, filled with unspeakable envy.
Erwa's eyes lit up. He had one too! He had new clothes too, and in a few days he could wear new winter clothes!
Meixiang pouted. She wanted new clothes too. She would ask her mother for them when she got back! Even the poorest eldest child had new clothes, so why didn't she?
But when I think of my younger brother, even if the family could make it, he would definitely be the first one.
Mei Xiang's expression turned pale.
Grandma Chen wanted to remind her son that he hadn't achieved his goal, and that even her son had been influenced by that woman, becoming so extravagant.
There are three boys in the family. Look at this dilapidated thatched hut. In a few years, when the eldest son grows up, which family will dare to marry their daughter into this family?
What to do if three kids can't find wives?
Old Mrs. Chen was so worried that her brows were furrowed. Unfortunately, her son didn't care, and her daughter-in-law was even less of a concern.
"Mother, will you stay for dinner?" Yin Lan asked.
She had a good impression of the old lady. The original owner's family relationships were a complete mess, but the old lady's expression was slightly better.
Chen Yourun looked at his wife and felt a surge of warmth in his heart. Who said his wife was bad? She was clearly very good.
Even he couldn't eat at home, yet he urged the old lady to eat.
Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she was full. She saw that Madam Yin had used so much offal to cook a meal. Was she eating meat as a meal?
Her old eyes simply couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
All he ever does is eat, eat, eat. The old lady was so angry that she cursed him under her breath before leaving.
As for why she didn't curse, it was because the old lady had personally witnessed this Yin Shi arguing with others at the village meeting. She was really quick-witted and didn't seem afraid to speak in front of so many people, so she felt that this Yin Shi didn't seem like someone to mess with.
After Old Mrs. Chen left, Mei Xiang wanted to have dinner at Yin Lan's house. She looked at Yin Lan longingly, but Yin Lan just smiled and didn't say anything.
Zhu Xiang is Chen Laosan's child. Yin Lan has a good impression of Laosan's family, but she doesn't have a good impression of Lao Er's family.
"Aren't you going back yet? Your grandmother has already gone far away," Yin Lan urged directly.
Meixiang waited and looked around. Last time Zhuxiang came, she ate something. Today, she tried every means to come along, but there was nothing.
Why is that aunt so stingy!
There were a few kids over there. "What are you doing here?" she asked.
Tian Youwei spoke up, "Would you like to do some work, chop firewood, and move mud bricks?"
Meixiang pouted. Not only did they not give her anything good to eat, but they also wanted her to do chores? She wasn't that stupid.
"I don't have time," she said lazily.
"Why ask questions if you're not going to do it?" Tian Youwei retorted directly.
Mei Xiang's face flushed red with embarrassment. She was a pretty girl, and no one had ever treated her so disrespectfully before! This Tian Youwei was indeed a thief, a thief without eyes!
She gritted her teeth in anger.
"No time? Never mind then, I won't take up your time. I'm going to make some egg drop soup anyway, who wants some?"
The children's eyes lit up, and they all responded.
Egg drop soup! Meixiang also wants some!
But when I turned my gaze, I only saw Yin Lan waving her hand, "If you're busy, then hurry back."
Meixiang gritted her teeth, she was so angry she was about to explode. She turned and ran away, cursing her aunt Yin Shi as she ran. She said that Yin Shi was stingy and lived in a dilapidated house without even a stove or a table. She didn't know what she was so proud of. It was just pig offal. She didn't care for such disgusting food.
She ran back quickly and bumped into Madam Hu coming out. She immediately asked, "Mother, can we have egg drop soup today?"
Hu was furious when she heard this. All he ever did was eat!
"Didn't your grandmother take you to the Yin family's place and tell you to get more food for your younger brother? Didn't you bring it back?"
Meixiang was angry. "She's so stingy, she won't give it to me."
"Then why didn't you ask for it? You mouthless thing, you didn't bring back the food, and you still want egg drop soup? Do you think the eggs in the house fall from the sky?"
Mei Xiang was so angry that her eyes turned red.
"What did she eat?" Hu asked after thinking for a moment.
"Pig offal."
Ha, this Lady Yin is such a stingy person. She has so much pork at home, but when she heard that the Zhao family was going to cook for her, she actually offered them pig offal as a way to get rid of them. Ha, the Zhao family must hate her to death now. Let's see if anyone will work for her in the future.
Just as Hu was lost in thought, Chen Lao Er returned. Because Lao San had received more meat than him last time, Lao Er had always been very unhappy. Although the meat was ultimately shared by the whole family, when they went out, everyone would compare how much meat they got.
Chen Lao Er was indignant, so he went out and joined the families who had received less meat, intending to rally them together to voice their dissent about the unfair distribution of the meat. However, they countered, "We really didn't put in much effort, so the distribution of the meat is quite fair."
"That's right, Chen Lao Er, you took the meat, didn't you? You didn't do anything, you just got the meat for free, so stop talking nonsense."
A few words almost made Old Chen Er die of anger.
