MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 11

That day, Lu Gu changed out of his wedding dress at the Lujia Chaifang. Ji Qiuyue saw it and took it with him when he left.

The fabric for the wedding dress was bought by the Shen family, and it wasn't originally made for Lu Gu. Lu Gu had no idea about the sale of clothes. He just wondered why Wei Lanxiang brought him.

Wei Lanxiang took him to talk to pedestrians on the commercial street in Fangshi to find customers. Fenggu Town is still lively, and there are more opportunities when there are more people. However, there will be a happy event in someone's home. Ask for price.

But Wei Lanxiang felt that she gave too little. Even if the clothes were worn, they were only worn for one day, so how could they sell them at such a low price.

"I said that my sister-in-law also knows the goods. Whoever sees this fabric can't say it's good. It costs five hundred wen just to pull the cloth. In addition to the embroidery work, you look at the stitches, how much thought it took, let alone two hundred Now, if you really want it, three hundred wen."

After hearing the three hundred wen, the woman who bargained for the price twitched her mouth, but the fabric was really good, and the price was cheaper than ripping it. The clothes are too big, and it takes a lot of work to change them when I go back, and it takes a lot of effort to find similar materials to make shoes."

As she spoke, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the wedding shoes on Lu Gu's feet, and then looked at the pair of linen wrapped around her head in front of her. There was a faint blood on the forehead. At first glance, she had hurt her head. She seemed startled, and said again and again. : "This is what you wore? It's unlucky for the newlyweds to have blood. Don't be beaten for wearing this wedding dress."

Hearing this, Wei Lanxiang immediately became unhappy, pulled back the wedding gown from the woman's hand, and said, "What's auspicious and unlucky, sister-in-law, if you want to buy it, just buy it, if you don't buy it, forget it, what do you do with such depressing words? ."

She turned to Lu Gu and said, "Let's go, don't sell it anymore, go elsewhere."

Lu Gu hurriedly followed, feeling uneasy in his heart, afraid because he hadn't sold the clothes.

The woman behind her was a little anxious. She just used her injured twins to attack, so as to reduce the price. If she could win it with two hundred yuan, who would care if it was auspicious or not. Just shouted twice from the back, and said to discuss again.

Wei Lanxiang just pretended that she didn't hear it. Good words made that person's words sound too ugly. It's better to find another buyer.

The two turned to another street, which was closer to Fangshi. Wei Lanxiang said to Lu Gu, "I'm going to ask questions. You wait here, don't come here first."

With the incident just now, she naturally has to think more, and can no longer let people hold this to suppress the price.

Lu Gu Nane stood where he was and did not follow. There were people coming and going around, and he was a little helpless in the middle of it.

Selling goods along the street can be walked everywhere, seeing Wei Lanxiang walking forward, he hastily followed behind, not too close, only in the range where Wei Lanxiang can be seen.

As soon as Wei Lanxiang looked back and saw him, her heart was still smart, so she no longer worried about Lu Gu.

After walking around the town for an hour and a half, and finally selling the clothes for 300 yuan, Wei Lanxiang carried the cloth-covered basket tightly and took Lu Gu to the cloth shop.

Wedding dresses are not as easy to sell as ordinary clothes, and you have to be lucky to meet someone with a happy event. Besides, the rich and wealthy households don’t like this style of fabric. Only farmers and ordinary people in Fenggu Town will come up to take a look. It's too expensive, people might as well pull the cloth and go back and make it themselves, they can only sell it cheap.

It's not bad to sell for 300 yuan, at least she doesn't need to touch the ones she saved.

In the fabric shop, Wei Lanxiang spent 80 yuan to pull a piece of rough indigo cloth. The fabric was not as good as a wedding dress, but it was dyed brightly and looked much better than the cheap ephedra.

When she bought the cloth, she compared it to Lu Gu, but Lu Gu stood still and didn't dare to move, so she let her compare.

After leaving the shop, Wei Lanxiang said to Lu Gu as she walked, "This cloth will go back and make you new clothes, can you do work?"

Eighty yuan is an extremely high price for Lu Gu. His mother died when he was eleven years old, and he has not learned how to sew clothes. After Du Hehua came, he had no chance. Unlike loach, such expensive cloth he Not daring to spoil it, he honestly shook his head.

Making clothes is a big job. Shuang'er, who is seventeen or eighteen years old, hasn't seen much of the world, and the poor family doesn't have much fabric to waste. Lu Gu is not the only one who is unfamiliar with life. Seeing that he looks a little scared, Wei Lanxiang said "It doesn't matter if you don't, just learn it slowly in the future. Your sister-in-law is very good at making waistcoats, but it's not very capable to do a whole body, and sometimes you have to spend more cloth."

Lu Gu couldn't answer, he just listened carefully. After noon was over, the two hurried back.

After arriving at Qingxi Village, under the old tree at the head of the village, there were a few old maids and old ladies who took advantage of the bright sun, some people from the square line, some people who peeled firewood beans, and gathered to gossip about various people and things in the village.

Seeing Wei Lanxiang bringing Lu Gu back, the old ladies asked, "Aunt Lanxiang, what are you doing?"

Wei Lanxiang said with a smile, "I don't want to pull a piece of cloth for our millet, and go back and make new clothes."

She took out the cloth from the basket and compared it to Lu Gu, and asked a few old people, "See if this cloth fits our millet."

"Oh, it's so beautiful."

"Our little husband is really handsome."

"This fabric is so bright, it must cost a lot of money."

Wei Lanxiang listened to their gossip and said with a smile, "No, eighty words."

When they heard that it was so expensive, the old ladies clapped their tongues and exclaimed in unison, "It's amazing!"

"That's what you are willing to do."

Wei Lanxiang smiled but didn't answer, and asked again, "A-Jin Nanny, I remember that you had some old clothes that you couldn't sell before, do you still have them?"

Ah Jin Nian hurriedly put down the chai bean in her hand, she sat in the back, stretched her neck and said, "There's more."

Wei Lanxiang folded the blue cloth and put it back in the basket, and said, "It's not too much. If there's too much, I'll give you three cents to make two new shoes for Guzi."

"Yes, it's enough for you." A Jinnai stopped peeling the beans, and hurriedly took a dustpan and walked to the village with Wei Lanxiang. There was three cents.

The clothes in her family are said to be old clothes for face, but in fact they are the tattered clothes that the farmer can't mend and can't be sold by others. In addition to their own, they also pick up the ones that others don't want. There are a lot of them, Wei Lanxiang heard that there are a lot of people, and this is the price of three cents, that is, to make shoe soles, otherwise who would buy a bunch of rags and go back.

Ji Qiuyue was squatting in the courtyard to chop chicken and grass, when she saw Lu Gu came back with a pile of rags, she wondered: "Where did this come from?"

Wei Lanxiang replied smoothly, "We don't have any robes at home anymore. I bought them from Nanny A Jin and glued the soles to Gu Zi and Shen Yan."

The Shen family had all made new clothes before Shen Xuanqing got married, so Ji Qiuyue was not uncomfortable when she saw Wei Lanxiang pulling new cloth for Lu Gu and said that she was making clothes. She also knew that Lu Gu didn't even have another pair of shoes. will say anything.

However, she was a little surprised to see that her mother-in-law was suddenly so interested in Lu Gu.

Lu Gu put the rags on the ground and picked them up with Wei Lanxiang. If there was a dirty smell, he took them out and put them aside. After finishing them, they washed them with water, otherwise they would be too wasteful.

Shen Yan was putting ducks in the pond, and he took the wooden basin to the back of the house to wash the tattered clothes, and he saw it as expected.

"Brother Lu Gu." Shen Yan had just hit a bale of grass, and was sitting on a white stone to rest. When he saw him coming, he shouted and asked what he was doing.

Hearing that Lu Gu said that her mother wanted to make shoes for them, she was naturally happy.

The busy and steady day passed quickly. After dinner in the evening, Lu Gu washed the dishes as usual, while Wei Lanxiang and Ji Qiuyue visited the village before it got dark.

On the way, Ji Qiuyue couldn't hold back and asked, "Mother, why did you think of making clothes for Lu Gu?"

Wei Lanxiang sighed lightly before telling her the reason.

Then Du Hehua was not easy to get along with. After the fight in Anjia Village, Shen Xuanqing injured Lu Daxiang, and Du Hehua cried when she saw anyone, saying that their Shen family was not a good person, and even more ugly words were planted on Shen Xuanqing's head.

There have been some gossips in the surrounding villages, and even Zhou Xiangjun heard about it. When he came that day, he mentioned to her that gossip is always bad, even if they are not wrong, but the people who talk behind their backs can in spite of.

Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu were splashed with sewage outside by Du Hehua. Let's not mention other things. Shen Yan is going to get married in the future, so he can't be dragged down and can't find a good family.

Now she not only wants to make new clothes and new shoes for Lu Gu, but also takes care of people. No matter who looks at it, they can't say that the Shen family is at fault, and even Shen Xuanqing's reputation can be restored.

Ji Qiuyue suddenly realized that this is true.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to visit like this. When Wei Lanxiang was talking about marrying Lu Gu, she sighed and revealed that the reason why Shen Xuanqing bought Lu Gu was to save people, otherwise Lu Gu would be ruined by his stepmother. , How could he survive, even if he did, it would be as hard as Du Hehua's hand, and Lu Gu had to be tortured to death in the Lu family.

The husband of the Xia family, who was chatting with her, nodded and sighed repeatedly, saying that it was right, and patted Wei Lanxiang's hand to comfort him.

This husband of the Xia family is good-hearted and warm-hearted. When he encounters that injustice, he always has to say it bitterly. Even if he talks a lot, he can say a word to anyone, but he can't hide it. Tell him today that half of Qingxi Village will be tomorrow. People will know.

Lu Gu, who was cleaning up in the kitchen, didn't know anything, but even if he knew, he wouldn't mind. Shen Xuanqing bought him from the Lu family, and he could eat and sleep well here. For him, it really saved him. he.

Wei Lanxiang is very selfish towards him, but that's different from Du Hehua. Du Hehua only dresses him neatly, but doesn't even give him food. So telling outsiders that it can be called telling the truth, compared to those bad things that Du Hehua did, this is nothing.

—

At night, Lu Gu was lying on the bed. Tonight, he was the only one who slept alone. He felt a little more comfortable, but he didn't dare to move things.

He remembered the indigo cloth and the shoes that he had compared to his feet. He couldn't believe it like a dream. Du Hehua's words that he once scolded him for not knowing whether or not he deserved to wear new clothes could still be heard in his ears.

But now, Du Hehua can't beat him anymore.
