Several people put the things on the table in the main hall first. Wu said to Li Yan, "You came at the right time. I was just about to look for you!" After that, she got up and went back to the room to get out a few pairs of new cotton shoes.
Mrs. Wu: "I have nothing to do, so I made a pair of shoes for you kids. Try them on and see if they fit you well." After saying that, she handed the finished shoes to the children who were gathered around her.
When Maomao saw that he had new shoes to wear, he ran to Mrs. Wu happily and asked her to hold him while he tried on the shoes.
Li Yan took a pair of black cotton shoes from the table. The big cotton shoes were stuffed with thick cotton. Daya, who was standing next to her, couldn't let go of them when she took them in her hands.
Wu urged: "What are you doing with it? Try them on to see if they fit!"
Li Yan tried it on and found it was neither too big nor too small, just right. The soft cotton wrapped around the entire sole of her foot, making her warm and comfortable.
Li Yan couldn't help but flatter: "Grandma, your cooking skills are really good. I'm afraid there's no one else like you in Lijia Village!" After that, she gave Wu a thumbs up.
Mrs. Wu felt very happy when Li Yan praised her.
Li Yan pointed to the slightly larger cotton shoes on the table and asked, "Who are these made for?"
Mrs. Wu: "That's for your cousin. I'll have someone take it to him next time we go to market."
"Give me the milk, I need to go into the city later! And by the way, give these cotton shoes to my cousin!"
When Maomao heard that her second sister was going to the city, she immediately tried to get off Wu's back: "I want to go too, second sister! Take me with you!"
Li Yan stepped forward and coaxed helplessly, "Maomao, be good. Second sister is going to go get something. I'll make you something delicious when I come back. Okay?"
When Maomao heard that there was something delicious to eat, he hesitated for a moment, but finally stopped asking to go with them.
Mrs. Wu slapped her grandson's butt and scolded him with a smile, "You little greedy cat!"
Elsewhere, after feeding the cows, Mr. Li returned to the main hall. Seeing the many cloths on the table, he frowned and said disapprovingly, "Didn't you send cloths last time? What are you doing with these?"
Li Yan: "Grandpa, the cloth and cotton I gave you last time weren't enough for everyone in my family to make a whole set of clothes!"
The eldest aunt was afraid that the things would be returned, so she muttered hurriedly: "This is all the second girl's thoughtfulness!"
Li Yan nodded in agreement and pointed to the tea leaves on the table and said to Mr. Li, "I brought this tea back from the south. I left some for you to try!"
Mrs. Wu glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law and warned Li Yan, "Your uncle's business is not easy. He brought these things back from afar to make money. Don't waste money like this in the future!"
After they chatted for a while, Wu stood up and asked Li Yan to help her take the things on the table back to her room.
The aunt stared at the thing that disappeared before her eyes, feeling very reluctant to let it go! She could see it but couldn't touch it, and she felt heartbroken!
Li Yan took her things and followed Wu into the room. After seeing that there was no one around, she told Wu what Dayajie had said to her yesterday.
Wu angrily slammed the table and cursed, "This short-sighted woman is always thinking about taking advantage of others, and now she wants to take advantage of the people in the family too!"
Li Yan hurried forward to help Wu calm down: "Grandma, don't be so quick to blame my aunt for this. If she does, she'll take it out on Dayajie!"
Wu slammed the table angrily: "How dare she!"
"Grandma, I'm not telling you this to make you angry. After all, Auntie is your eldest daughter-in-law. She will have to support the Li family in the future. Otherwise, you can try to hand over some things to her first, and tell her the priorities."
Mrs. Wu waved her hand. "Your aunt is so short-sighted. I really don't feel comfortable handing things over to her. I know her inner thoughts better than anyone else! She wants to move all the good things in the house back to her mother's house!"
