Chapter 6 Embroidery
When Mrs. Sun came out of the silk and satin village, Yu Xiaolian could clearly feel that Mrs. Sun's mood had improved.

"The proprietress gave us some netting work, which can last a month, and the deposit has not been confiscated." Sun happily put the things for netting into Yu Xiaolian's bamboo basket.

"Is it heavy? How about I carry it?" Seeing that the small bamboo basket carried by Yu Xiaolian was almost full, Sun was about to reach out to take it.

Yu Xiaolian shook her head, "No need, mother, I can move my back, and you will have to carry the iron pot later, save your strength!"

After hearing what Yu Xiaolian said, Mrs. Sun didn't insist, took Yu Xiaolian's hand, and went into the market again.

Iron pan, three new sets of bowls and chopsticks, two medium-sized porcelain jars, a catty of salt, a bottle of soy sauce, and a piece of pork suet. Mrs. Sun walked through the market well and bought them all in no time. .

Finally, Mrs. Sun went to the grocery store to buy lamp oil and red paper, and took Yu Xiaolian home.

The iron pot was tied to Mrs. Sun's back with a rope brought from home, and she carried a heavy porcelain jar in her two hands, which contained some odds and ends.

As for the bowls and chopsticks, Yu Xiaolian put them in her small basket.

What Sun carried on her body and held in her hands probably weighed tens of catties, but she still walked much faster than Yu Xiaolian.

She would quickly walk a long distance, then put the jar on the ground, pinch her waist and wait for Yu Xiaolian who fell behind for a while.

Yu Xiaolian really admired Mrs. Sun. She carried so many things and was able to walk like flying. She was almost catching up with the weight-bearing training of special forces.

Yu Xiaolian couldn't do it anymore, she felt that the two ropes on her shoulders made her shoulders hurt, and she had to put her hands under the ropes.

After walking and stopping, the two returned to Hewanzi Village. When they entered the village, they saw several women chatting under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village.

Some of them are holding shoe soles and are receiving shoe soles, while others are holding embroidery sheds and are doing embroidery work.

He was doing work with his hands, and his mouth was not idle, talking about some things in the village recently.

One of the biggest news in the village recently was that Yu Xiaolian, a person who never got sick, got seriously ill, but didn't die, and came back again.

Another one is that Yu Zizi was separated by his mother and passed alone.

Before Yu Xiaolian and Mrs. Sun walked in, they overheard what they were talking about about his family.

"Hey, this Yu Changhe separated from his family, why didn't he pay back the money he owed me?"

"Can I pay you back? I guess eating will be a problem in the future!"

"No way, I lent it to their family with good intentions. The money of this family was not blown by a strong wind. If you want to ruin my money, that's impossible."

"It's also owed to my family. When I borrowed it, I said it would be paid back in a few days. How many days have passed? Let's go to his house to ask for money together after a while?"

"Yes, let's go together, and he will not dare not return the amount."

"It's not so good. It's a difficult time for people. When Changhe was a government servant, he helped us a lot. I want to go to you. I don't want to go. Anyway, my family is not in a hurry, so I will take a while. It's okay."

Mrs. Sun heard what they were saying from a distance, and when she and Yu Xiaolian approached, Mrs. Sun cleared her throat and said, "Aunts and sisters-in-law, I just came back from the town with my embroidery work. After this batch of embroidery work is done, you will have money in your hands, and I will definitely pay you back the money when the time comes. If you are worried, just go to my house now and let Changhe write you an IOU, so you can rest assured. "

Although Yu Changhe hasn't studied for a few years, he can still write an IOU.

When several young women and old women heard Mrs. Sun talking, they immediately stopped their work and looked up at Mrs. Sun.

The neighbor of the Yu family, Feng Shi, who gets along better with Sun Shi, saw that Sun Shi was carrying a pot on his body and carrying such a heavy thing in his hand, and immediately said, "Why are you carrying so many things? Put it down and have a rest, I just want to go home, give me, I'll help you get some."

Sun put down the two jars in her hand, panting heavily, "If you are willing to lend me money, you just believe in me and help me. Changhe and I will keep this feeling in our hearts.

I will definitely pay back the money, but it will be a few days late. If there is an urgent need, I still have dozens of coins in hand, so I can pay it back first. "

"No rush...don't rush...you in my family can do it whenever you want."

"It's the same at my house. You can return it when you have it."

Seeing that Mrs. Sun was so frank, several women expressed that they would not go to the Yu family to collect debts.

Someone asked curiously, "The family has just been separated, and I have dozens of papers left in my hand. How much money did your mother-in-law give you?"

Sun raised the two pots again, "I didn't give much. I went to the town today and there is nothing left. I'm waiting for the pot at home. I'll go back first!"

After Sun brought Yu Xiaolian over, Feng also chased up from behind, took a jar from Sun, held it in his arms, and said as he walked, "Actually, you may not be separated from your mother-in-law. It's a bad thing. I heard that your sister-in-law who didn't come in is not a good match, but a powerful character. Maybe it's a good thing to separate.

If you have any difficulties at home, you can go to my house. The guy in my family has already told me to pay attention to your house, just in case you have any difficulties and are too embarrassed to come to the door. "

Feng's man is called Zhao Kuo, and he and Yu Changhe have been playmates since childhood.

Yu Changhe went to the town to work as a handyman, and when he got older, he was promoted to be a yamen servant. Later, Zhao Kuo, who helped him, also became a yamen servant. Therefore, the relationship between Zhao Kuo and Yu Changhe has become better and better over the years.

But the wool can't be gathered on a sheep, and Yu Changhe has borrowed money too many times, and Yu Changhe is too embarrassed to go to the Zhao family's door again, so he owes some other families, but he still owes the most to the Zhao family.

Sun pointed to the things on Yu Xiaolian's back, and said that after finishing all the embroidery work, she would be able to repay the famine of several other families, but the debt owed to the Zhao family should be slow.

Naturally, Mrs. Feng wouldn't mind Mrs. Sun's failure to pay back the money. Her man's errand was two taels of silver a month, but Yu Changhe found it for her. She always wanted to find a chance to repay her.

At the gate of Yu's house, Yu Changhe was already waiting there.

He first took off the pannier from Yu Xiaolian who was walking in front, and then took off the cauldron from Sun's back.

Feng also put the jar on the ground, and said with a smile, "When you are doing embroidery, don't forget to call me, I like to learn new tricks, we work together, so we can have someone to talk to."

Mrs. Sun nodded, "Tomorrow I will bring my things and go to your house to do some work."

The Sun family and Yu Changhe carried the cauldron to the backyard together. Yu Changhe dragged a lame leg and walked with great difficulty, but none of the other members of the Yu family came out to help.

In the backyard, Yu Changhe pointed to the wooden shelf above the stove and said, "I need to build a shed, otherwise I won't be able to cook when it rains. Without a shed, I can't do it in winter either, it's too cold."

Mrs. Sun took a look, and only half of the shed was built and said, "I'll build it with you in a while, let's put the pot on first, and see if it's ready to burn?"
