In the afternoon, Mother and I went to the embroidery room again. Yesterday, we embroidered a dark green satin material. Today, I want Mother to embroider that piece of light gauze!
"Mother, let's embroider this gauze!"”
My mother: What can this embroidered flower do?"
"I just want to see what the flowers on this gauze look like!" Besides, if this was embroidered, it might be able to make a fan face.”
My mother: " How can there be a fan made of light gauze? The fan is either made of cattail leaves or paper, or it is made of silk satin. I have never seen a light gauze!"”
Me: " Embroider something first. If you can't do anything, leave it for me. It's good for me to look at it."”
I spent a long time with my mother before she agreed, and the day passed without me realizing it.
......
These few days, my father followed everyone to check and register the population of each household. He went out early and returned late every day.
We had nothing to do during the day and would occasionally take me to Grandma's house to chat with my aunt. My family and Third Uncle's family only had dinner at Grandma's house, so the day didn't last long.
"Or go to the opposite house to play for a while and live a simple life like this. It's as if the war outside has nothing to do with us commoners, but in fact, the prices of goods are soaring and there are more and more refugees!
The righteous lady had specially come to the house today to inform them that there were many refugees recently. She had asked them to take care of the house and the children at home and not let anything happen.
Although we live in the prefecture, we also have a village chief. There's one village chief for every 150 households. They take care of some trivial matters, just like the modern neighborhood committee, so she will help out with anything.
After informing our family, we went to the next one.
"Sigh! The world is getting more and more chaotic. Little Jia, don't go out and play. If anything happens, your mother won't live!”My mother told me very seriously.
"Mother, I'm with you every day! Where can I go? My cousin doesn't even bother with me. The sister from the Xu family next door is playing with her little husband every day and doesn't have time to bother with me.”I feel helpless?_?` I haven't gone out many times. Now, I only know a few families on the left and right. They're not willing to bring me, this little tail, to play!
My mother: " Don't talk nonsense. Your sister isn't even 15 years old yet. Why would she marry someone?!"”
"Mother, isn't my sister Xu engaged to Big Brother Dayi? I'll pay."? His cousin said that they were his wife and husband.”
My mother said,"This one?" Why do you say everything? Don't have too much contact with him in the future. He'll lead you astray!”
I didn't say anything else and went back to fiddling with those cloths. We used those cloths to embroider things at home, not handkerchief, undergarment, purse, purse, etc. These things were usually embroidered with the old embroidery method, and half of them were anti-Su embroidery.
There's also a half-embroidered curtain. This one is relatively large and needs to be embroidered for a few days. This one is going to be sold, so my mother still uses the old embroidery method. She's afraid that people won't be able to accept the new embroidery method and waste cloth and time.
I flipped through the cloth and asked,""Mother, why don't we all use fine cotton cloth to make clothes? I think this fine cotton cloth is very comfortable!”
My mother looked up at me." Fine cotton is comfortable to wear, but it's willing to get wet when you sweat. Although the fine linen we wear isn't so comfortable, it's cheaper not to get wet!
Everyone is wearing fine linen. If we wear something better, people will be jealous!
Besides, aren't most of the inner clothes Mother made for you made of fine cotton cloth? Other than when it's the hottest, she lets you wear fine linen. You won't wear that linen cloth many times. We can't be too conspicuous! Do you know?"
"Little Jia, Father is back!" Mother and I were packing up to go to Grandma's house when my father's shout came from the courtyard.
I ran to the courtyard and hugged my father." Dad, you're back so early today!"”
My father: " Yes, my father's work is done and he went home!”
"It's so early today?" Have you caught those people?"
My father: " We caught them all yesterday. They were all in the west and north regions. There were more than 200 of them! They were all taken away by Little General Wu this morning.”
"That's good!" That was good! We're going to Mother's place.”
"Yes, let's go!"
......
"Father, Mother, we're here!" The three of us entered the courtyard and greeted each other.
Grandpa was enjoying the shade in the courtyard when he saw us and said,"Is Second Brother done with his work? You haven't come to eat for a few days!"
My father: " I'm done with my work. Didn't I just come back from my work?!" I also want to go home early for dinner, but I have work to do!”
Grandma also came out when she heard the commotion." Work is more important. Don't listen to your father. He's just talking nonsense. Take a piece of bacon and stir-fry it tonight!”
My mother saw that Grandma was going into the kitchen and quickly followed her.
"Little Jia, come in and help Aunt take care of the child.”My aunt called me in.
"Okay!" I'll be right there."
After I went in, my aunt said that the child was sleeping and that you could help me take a look. After she finished speaking, she went out.
......
yard
"Second Brother, you're here!"
"How have you been recently?"
"What else can I do?!" Yesterday, Yang brought Third Brother over.”Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.
"What does that mean?" What did big brother and the others say?"
"My eldest brother-in-law meant that it would be best if I could live, but I have to be obedient when I go back. It won't be as good as before."”
My father: " Who does he think he is? Is that what your mother-in-law meant? Does that mean that Zhao Li has the same intention?"
"Big Brother said that my mother-in-law meant that the child is still young and has to continue to make a fuss. Zhao Li said that his mother made the decision and he would listen to her."”
My father: " What is this? What are you thinking? Do you still want to think about it? However, Second Brother also supports you. Our family won't spoil their scumbag.”People who had been soldiers were tough and could not stand people who bullied others.
Grandma heard the commotion and came out. What do you mean by you supporting me? What about the child? You don't want it anymore? If you want it, can his family give it to you? That's a grandson!"
Her aunt fell silent.
Grandpa: " Now is not the time to say things out of anger. If you ask me, we have the right. It's wrong for them to make a move. If they make a fuss, their family will suffer more than us.
I thought that if I could, I wouldn't let my mother-in-law and my eldest brother-in-law live together. I'd split up and let them move out.”
"Where are you going to move out? Then would Zhao Li agree? Besides, could he support his family? People who only knew how to read did not even have an income.”
"Yeah, where are we going to move out?" Besides, he wouldn't agree with that filial look of his! I want to prepare for the worst. If I really leave our house, will there be a place for me and a place for me to eat?”
My father: " If you want to leave, then leave. Your family doesn't lack a mouthful of food."”
Grandpa: " Don't worry, I'm not dead yet. Why can't you have a meal? My family doesn't mind you and your divorce. If you can talk about it, then talk about it. We'll split up. If you don't have a place to stay, then stay at our house first."”
I leaned against the door and eavesdropped on the conversation in the courtyard. When I heard Grandpa's final conclusion, I stopped listening.
It seemed that her aunt was going to return to her mother's house to stay for a long time.
