Chapter 602: Chapter 602: Shopping

However, she quickly composed herself and gave Shopkeeper Gu a surreptitious glare.

The complexion of Shopkeeper Gu remained unaltered, as he continued to stand there respectfully with a modest smile on his face.

“I knew you were ending your confinement period today, so you must be planning to go out, right? That’s why I specifically came to ask if you would like to accompany me,” he said.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Sisi nodded, “That’s fine! I will have to make a visit to my maternal uncle’s home tomorrow. It will be convenient to buy certain necessary items while I’m outside.”

As per the local custom, once women finish their postpartum confinement period, they first have to visit the uncle’s house to determine the end of confinement. Only then can they casually go out to meet guests.

As for Liu Sisi’s brothers, one was Liu Baihan, and the other was Nan Tianzong, who lives far away in the capital city! In the absence of real brothers, cousin brothers could substitute.

As for visiting Nan Tianzong in the capital, it was impossible for her. The only option she had was to visit Liu Baihan’s place.

Every time she thought about visiting Liu Baihan, she felt uncomfortable all over. She wished she could kill the root cause of the failure that led to the former body owner’s death with a single slap! If she could delay the visit by a day, it would be the best thing.

As the two were enjoying their conversation, a fluttering butterfly came flying over from the other side.

Today, YingEr wore a light blue ground pleated summer dress, tied around the waist with light blue chiffon, adorned with a highly intricate large bow knot. She also wore a blue hair band on her double ponytails, complemented with two butterflies, one red and one orange, adorning it that made her even more adorable and playful.

As she flew to Liu Sisi’s side, she gleefully jumped into her arms and laughed, “Mom, look, this is the dress that Eldest Sister-in-law made for me, isn’t it beautiful?”

The Eldest Sister-in-law YingEr referred to was Di Cheng’s wife, Xiao Feng.

Liu Sisi carefully examined it once more, she couldn’t resist nodding powerfully, “Indeed, it is beautiful! Xiao Feng has a great eye for these things!”

Last time, Xiao Feng accompanied Di Cheng and others on a trip to Chengdu Prefecture with Ye Lei. On returning, Ye Lei didn’t stop singing praises about her.

He even commented that Xiao Feng was very skilled and asked her to manage the city defending soldiers in Macheng County.

For this reason, those soldiers who looked down upon women had to swallow their pride. Each time Ye Lei returned and talked about it, he was all smiles.

Di Cheng currently didn’t oversee the bookstore anymore. According to Ye Lei, letting Di Cheng manage the bookstore was an underuse of his abilities. So, he took Di Cheng with him, accompanying him in his recent outings.

The most surprising thing was Di Ah-bao. The old Di Ah-bao was nothing but an idle layabout, who now was directed by Ye Lei to utilize his strengths. Whenever there were unavoidable invitations to entertain guests or people, they would get Di Ah-bao to ward off the drinks.

Di Ah-bao was Lord Captain’s younger brother, and everyone respected him to a certain extent for the sake of Ye Lei.

However, Liu Sisi had never expected that Xiao Feng, who was usually carefree, would be so skilled at making clothes.

“Yes, yes! Brother and Da Mao also have one!”

YingEr was very happy, begging Liu Sisi to pick her up.

Liu Sisi bent down and easily lifted her. As she turned around, she noticed that Ms. Xin, who was standing next to her earlier, had not followed.

She hurriedly turned back and took a few steps, as she turned the corner of the wall, she saw Ms. Xin seemingly arguing with Shopkeeper Gu. Neither of them looked happy.

“Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law!”

Liu Sisi softly called out twice.

Ms. Xin turned around, concealing her emotions with a smile, and quickly walked over to Liu Sisi.

“Second Sister-in-law…YingEr, yo! YingEr’s little dress is pretty, and these little shoes are also nice!”

“Eldest Sister-in-law made these for me! Little aunt, when will you make a little dress for YingEr?” Di Ying innocently asked.
