Although the old lady didn't do it herself last time, she was watching from the side and asked very carefully, so she knew what to do.
"As for the fabric, I'll take the leftover fabric from the last time I made clothes. I'll have four or five pieces of fabric, which is quite a lot."
"Okay, then I'll go draw a few more sets now." Su Qiao was quite confident in the old lady's work.
She quickly walked out of the upper room, went to the study to get some paper and returned to her room.
As for the pen, she did not use a brush, but used a small homemade pencil to outline the frame first, and then colored it with paint mixed with grass juice and flower petals.
In this way, the person who embroiders it can know not only the style and design, but also the color, just by taking a glance.
After Su Qiao left, the old lady looked at her eldest daughter-in-law with disdain: "Old lady, go get two strips of bacon and thirty eggs. Don't go back empty-handed."
"Okay, thank you, mom."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Lihua immediately smiled.
Without touching the fabric, he turned around and walked out.
The old lady snorted coldly, turned around and saw the second roommate was still sitting there without moving, and immediately became angry again:
"What are you still doing here? Is the food ready? Can't you see that the kids are still hungry?"
"Mom, I'll do it right away."
Liu quietly wiped her eyes, then quickly got up and went to the kitchen.
Erni felt that her mother was in a bad mood and hurried to follow her.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Liu forced a smile and said, "Mom is fine. I just got blinded by the sofa."
Su Huaizi followed silently behind, not knowing how to comfort him, and advised dryly, "Mother, don't think too much, just let the past go!"
Upon hearing this, Liu's eyes turned red again: "I didn't think about it."
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
Erni was completely confused.
"Sister, don't ask anymore." Su Yihe quietly pulled her away.
After returning to the house, Erni still looked confused: "Brother, what happened to our mother?"
Why are you crying out of the blue
Su Yihe sighed: "Our mother is missing home."
Are you homesick
"Brother, do you know where my grandparents live?" Erni thought about how she had grown up but had never been to her grandma's house once.
Su Yihe shook his head: "I don't know either."
"When I was a kid, my grandma mentioned that my mother's family lived in the mountains. Later, because our family was so poor, they sent my mother to live with us as a child bride."
"Child bride?" Erni was shocked. She had never heard of such a thing.
"Mom came to our house when she was seven years old and grew up with our dad and his family." After all, Su Yihe is older and more stable, and he is a man, so there are many things that his family will not deliberately hide from him.
Erni was very curious: "So our mother has never been back?"
Su Yihe shook his head helplessly: "There's no going back."
Sending a daughter to someone else's home as a child bride is equivalent to selling her daughter to someone else. How can she go back
It's not like they're marrying off their daughter, so the two families can still have interactions with each other.
Erni suddenly realized: "No wonder my grandma always dislikes my mom, it turns out..."
In the past, Erni could never understand why her mother was always the one who was scolded the most, even though her mother was virtuous, capable, and kind-hearted, while her aunt was so fierce, lazy, and unrefined.
It turned out that her mother was sold as a child bride and had no support from her natal family.
Unlike my aunt, who has four brothers to support her at home, if anything really happens, they will come to her house and beat her up.
Of course, she had also heard that when her aunt-in-law married into the Su family, she brought a generous dowry.
