But later, Yu Jiaxi took it apart again, aligned it, and asked her two nieces to pull it and align it, and then sewed it up. The waist size is suitable, and the hip size is also suitable. The dress is just right, from waist to ankle. The position, after removing the two centimeters to be sealed, it just reaches the ankle.

The remaining skirt material could be used to make another piece, so I kept it. Instead, I cut some out to make embroidered shoes. Mrs. Yu made the soles herself. The sole process took several days to make.

In order to keep the winter warm, Yu Jiaheng took his two younger brothers to the mountains. They hunted a few rabbits and came back. They peeled off the complete skins, processed them, and made insoles and shoe linings.

Yu Jiaxi's dowry was being prepared, while Yu Muyun discussed with the family, and then went to the village chief to buy land. In the future, he would build several places for weaving and pulling silk, and there was a piece of land behind the house near the foot of the mountain. It's quite big. Yu Muyun wants to discuss buying it. In addition to digging a pond to plant lotus flowers, he will also clear a piece of land to grow needed crops, especially cotton. After all, if you plant it in the field, you are afraid that someone will steal it. I'm afraid I won't be able to find anyone to take charge.

"Want to buy these two pieces of land?" The village chief was still a little hesitant. After all, the land next to Mr. Yu was sold to the public by the village. It could build a yard with three houses. If the whole ancestral house of the Yu family is used later, Measure it, that's huge.

"Yes, can't I buy this land?" Yu Muyun asked.

"It's possible, but it costs a lot of money. Not to mention the rest, it's just this piece of land, but it costs this much!" The village chief gestured with his fingers.

"What about the back?"

"There is no need for the ones at the back, because it is near the foot of the mountain and there is a lot of gravel at the bottom, but it is wide, and it is estimated to be fifteen taels!" The village chief did some calculations.

"Twilight, how's it going? Do you want to buy it?" Uncle Yu asked.

Yu Muyun is in charge of the family's money.

As for Yu Muyun, considering the existing money, the land in the back is large, but the price is relatively low. The one next to it costs twelve taels. It should be easier to dig and can be used for farming. Otherwise, the price is not high. It will be this high.

Most of the family's money was given to Yu Jia to buy cotton. The rest, plus the money spent to get the fabric this time, added up. It would be just enough to buy it all, but the family still had to pay for it, including wages. If you can buy all the money for silk and silk thread, your family will be able to live a tight life, but the house to be built will be far away.

"Uncle Village Chief, no one wants the land at the back now, right?" Yu Muyun asked.

"You can't buy it in this village. If someone comes from another village, they probably won't buy it here!" The village chief thought for a while.

"If Twilight wants to buy it, but I don't have enough money, I'll keep it for you, and tell him when it's almost done!" the village chief added.

"Then buy the one next to it first!" Yu Muyun said.

"Okay, I'll take the money and go to the town's Yamen to sign the deed!" The village chief nodded cheerfully.

Yu Muyun gave the land money and the errand fees, and he might be the person who manages the yamen by then.

"No, no, we're all familiar with it. There are a lot of land sales in our village, and the government is willing to make concessions!" The village chief didn't ask for the errand fee, and only took twelve taels and went to town.

"Your uncle, the village chief, can't take it from you! Okay, go back and wait!" Uncle Yu took Yu Muyun and walked home.

In the evening, Yu Ji returned to the village and hurriedly delivered the land deed to Yu Muyun.

When the Yamen heard that the Yu family wanted to buy land, they specifically asked if it was Yu Muyun. This was very efficient and there was no delay. It was even faster for other families to buy and sell the land.

I think we got married twice last time, and the other one was the county magistrate’s daughter who got married here, so it’s convenient!

After buying the land, we started to build a house. This house is not for living, so there are no partitions or anything like that, but it does have a stove and water supply, which is convenient for pulling silk.

After thinking about it, I built walls on all four sides, except for one wall at Sanye Yu's house, and on three sides, connected to the courtyard gate of Yu's house, and opened a door. The courtyard wall is higher and has a courtyard, so it is not all built. It is convenient for dyeing cloth, pulling threads to dry, and it will be more convenient for ironing and other things outside in the future. At the end are three rooms, which are not used for anything. They have walls and ceilings and are separated in the middle.

There is no need for a whole wall. In addition to leaving a door, the partition wall does not need to reach the top. You can also open an opening in the middle to put something or take things out.

Relatively speaking, it is simpler than calling.

After discussing it, Uncle Yu went to get started. He took his younger brother to find a mason. In the back mountain, he could collect materials by himself. All that could be collected was prepared in the back mountain. As for the bricks and tiles, he had to buy them.

Originally, Yu Muyun thought of giving it an advance, but Uncle Yu refused. Just come and get it when you want it.

In the end, Yu Muyun was still stubborn and could only give money every day.

Now that the supply of fabrics is not fixed every time, two people are hired, and the wife at home comes to do the work after finishing the work at hand. Thinking that the family has a remaining loom to make, Yu Muyun Recruiting again.

The recruiter was introduced by Yu Jiaxi. They had worked together in the embroidery workshop before, but later they got married and quit working in the embroidery workshop. They have been idle in the past two years. In addition, the man in the family has to make money to support the family. The daughter-in-law felt that it was hard, so she came out to look for work in the embroidery workshop. However, the proprietress of the embroidery workshop had just hired people, and she was no longer needed.

It happened that Yu Jiaxi went to town to pick some silk threads and met him. Thinking that this friend was nice, he took him home to sit with him. He had said that he would visit her before, but it never came to fruition. Now he is free.

When he arrived, he was carrying a baby on his back. He was a boy who was almost one year old. He was married to Songjia Village, but he was from the same village as Song Huier.

"Don't be restrained. My girls don't have many friends. We can hang out more often in the future!" Mrs. Yu greeted.

The daughter-in-law compared Jiaxi to be a few years older. She got married four years ago and now has three children. The first one gave birth to a girl, and the remaining two are boys. The mother-in-law at home is more open-minded and also does embroidery work, but her eyesight is not good. Okay, I knew she was going out to find embroidery work or something, so I agreed.

"What's your sister-in-law's name? I heard Jiaxi said she was married to Songjia Village?" Guan Qingyu poured tea.

"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I'll just sit down!"

"Yes, those who marry into Songjia Village are actually marrying into their own village. My name is Song Xiaojuan! Just call me Xiaojuan!" Song Xiaojuan saw that the Yu family did not dislike her, and she was not so panicked.

"By the way, Sister Xiaojuan, I forgot to ask you, what are you doing in the town?" Yu Jiaxi asked. The two of them were happy to meet each other. They talked about their situation and nothing else.

"I thought that my husband was the only one working at home, and there were many children at home, so I thought about going out to see if I could go to the embroidery workshop to continue doing it. My mother-in-law would take care of the children, but the landlady said I wouldn't use it for the time being. I still wanted to Where can I find a job? I just met you!" Song Xiaojuan replied with a smile.
