Chapter 683 (1/2)
After eating and drinking, there is no dream all night.
The next morning, Xia Xiaochan didn't get up yet. Outside the house, there was a knock at the door.
The voice of the third aunt also followed, ”have the two girls got up?”
”Third aunt, we'll get up right away.”
The third aunt opened the door and came in and said, ”little cicada, if you feel sleepy, sleep a little more. You've just suffered a great crime. It's most important to keep your body.”
After a pause, the third aunt said again, ”little cicada, I've made you a suit. You'll make do with it first. First see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, the third aunt will change it for you.”
Xia Xiaochan looked at the third aunt's hand. It was a moon white dress embroidered with light green bamboo leaves. The workmanship of the dress was very elegant and comfortable. Although the fabric was not good silk, it was also good cotton.
Xia Xiaochan's clothes are coarse cloth, and I don't know how many patches have been sewed. Compared with the fine and soft cotton cloth, of course, the clothes are born one by one.
”Thank you, aunt three!”
The third aunt put down her clothes, looked at the open toe shoes at Xia Xiaochan's feet, closed the door and stepped back.
Jiang Yue looked at the clothes in Xia Xiaochan's hand with envy and reluctantly looked away.
Xia Xiaochan was embarrassed and said, ”sister Jiang Yue, why don't you wear this dress!”
”No, no, no, I have clothes. Sister cicada, your clothes are too worn, your skin is rusty, and your body is uncomfortable. Change them first.”
Although the clothes Jiang Yue wears are old clothes, they are cotton clothes and have not been sewn. They are good clothes.
The nearby villages are poor, and everyone has no money. It is common to sew a large circle of patches on a piece of clothing.
Hearing what Jiang Yue said, Xia Xiaochan didn't refuse. After all, a good dress can maintain people's self-esteem.
After Xia Xiaochan put on her clothes, she got up with Jiang Yue.
As a result, just out of the room, in the outer room, the third aunt took out a pair of good cloth shoes and said to Xia Xiaochan, ”Xiaochan, your shoes are no longer good. It's all open toes. You put on these shoes first, and then your aunt will make you a suitable pair of shoes.”
Xia Xiaochan was moved when she heard this. At the same time, she wondered how the third aunt was so good to herself?
”Third aunt, you don't have to work so hard to make shoes for me. You are good enough for me.”
The third aunt's eyes flashed and smiled, ”it's all right. When your mother was alive, we promised to take good care of you.”
After hearing this, Xia Xiaochan no longer said anything, but she was more and more confused in her heart.
When Xia Xiaochan came to the table after washing, the breakfast was still very rich. Eggs stirred with big cakes fried with Chinese toon and fresh pickles under a large pot of millet porridge. Xia Xiaochan couldn't help drooling at such breakfast.
This kind of breakfast is very different from that of the Xia family.
After breakfast, Jiang Yue took out the silk flowers made by Xia Xiaochan and said, ”Mom, let's sell the silk flowers. This is the silk flowers made by our cousin. It's so beautiful. We can sell a lot of money.”
The third aunt looked at the silk flowers and was stunned. Her eyes brightened and nodded, ”OK, OK, you two children look at the house. I'll sell silk flowers in the town.”
Then she picked up the silk flowers wrapped by Jiang Yue and hurried out.
In the morning, Xia Xiaochan and Jiang Yue had nothing to do. The sisters cleaned up their home and talked about gossip. The time passed quickly.
