The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Xiao Yishan began to worry, ‘Yue’er, we only have a little more than two taels left. What if someone comes to sell fresh ferns again…”

“The ferns were collected a few days ago, and no one has come these days. It’s hard to find in the mountains now, and it’s almost out of season. The Bayberries are also out of season,” she said, “If you want to collect more, I am afraid there will be nothing to collect.”

“True.” Xiao Yishan nodded.

“I will tell the villagers tomorrow to spread the word that our house will stop collecting ferns and wild bayberries from tomorrow on.”

“Good idea.” Qinghe added, “We’ve collected enough.”

Xiao Yishan walked out of the room, leaning on his crutch, “I’m going to cook dinner… ‘

“I’ve already cooked the rice. Second brother will be grilling. On the stove, there are four eggs bought from another’s house, and there is a bunch of leeks, which can be made into stir-fried leek and egg and a bowl of egg drop soup for tonight.” She instructed.

He nodded and left for the kitchen.

“Wife, come over…” Xiao Yuchuan looked mysteriously at her.

She looked at him, puzzled.

He took out a set of women’s clothes hidden under the quilt, “Look, your clothes are ready. The cloth bought from Lady Li is enough to make two sets. One set is finished, and the other is in progress. Try them on and see if they

fit.”

Su Qingyue took a look and saw a light yellow coarse cloth dress with the same pattern embroidery as she had seen in Lady Li’s shop, “Third brother, you have a good memory…” She looked at the clothes carefully, “The pattern is the same as that in Lady Li’s shop. The color is different, her shop embroidered this style with bright red threads, and third brother used a purple thread.”

“I think the purple thread looks better.”

Third brother has good taste. Red thread is too common; purple is indeed much more elegant.”

“Hehe…” He smiled brightly, “As long as you like it.”

“I’m going to change.” She took the new clothes to the secondary bedroom, took off her clothes full of dozens of patches, and put on the new clothes made by the third brother for her. They fit perfectly.

When she walked out, Xiao Yishan, who was standing in the kitchen doorway, saw her and couldn’t help but take a few more glances, “Yue’er, you look great in these clothes. The third brother’s embroidery work is good.” She smiled and walked into the master bedroom.

Qinghe and Yuchuan in the room stared at her as they saw her.

In a simple light yellow coarse cloth dress, she had embroidered flowers in full bloom with purple threads. The collars and cuffs of the dress were embroidered with purple patterns, the same color waist belt emphasized her slender waist, making her look graceful and slender.

Despite it only being a coarse cloth dress, she managed to bring out a sense of subtlety and elegance.

“Wife, you look really good!” Xiao Yuchuan praised, his eyes shining.

“Indeed, it fits perfectly.” Qinghe also commented.

Yuchuan nodded, “When wife was skinny with no meat on her body, I cut the clothes slightly larger, now that you have put on a bit of weight, although still thin, you won’t be blown away by the wind. The slight looseness before is just right now.”

“Third brother’s embroidery skills are really good.” She looked down at the embroidery on the dress, “I remember the embroidery thread you bought for the coarse cloth was expensive and good. I didn’t expect that the good thread, combined with the third brother’s craftsmanship, embroidered on the coarse cloth, would make the whole dress look high-end..”
