Parents are busy farming

After finishing the meal, Madam Su ordered her maid to take out the items specially prepared for Ye Zifen in front of Magistrate Su and Madam Su.

I saw a box full of dazzling golden jewelry, and the styles were all novel and unique.

The old lady smiled and said: "When Jincheng got married, I had replaced all the things I had stored in the old days with new styles and gave Jincheng's wife a box. Now I have also prepared a box for you, Zifen. At that time If you haven’t returned yet, it’s just the right time for you to take it back.”

Ye Zifen's eyes slowly rested on one of the gold and jade necklaces.

This collar stands out in the entire box. It shines brightly, as if telling its preciousness.

It seemed a little out of place compared to the rest of the jewelry, as if it had been put in last.

Ye Zifen secretly speculated that this collar might have a special meaning.

Then she looked carefully at the box full of treasures and estimated their total value.

Through this evaluation, she gradually understood Mrs. Su's intentions.

She realized that these treasures were not just simple gifts, but had a deeper meaning.

Then, Ye Zifen turned his attention to Magistrate Su.

Her eyes showed a mixture of emotions, but she did not show an attitude of rejection.

Magistrate Su keenly captured this detail, and he immediately understood what his mother's actions meant.

He couldn't help but shook his head, secretly lamenting that he didn't handle something thoughtfully enough.

He knew that his mother did this to show her kindness to Ye Zifen on his behalf, hoping to quell possible dissatisfaction.

In fact, Magistrate Su still has some confidence in his actions.

He believed that with Zi Zifen's personality, apart from not informing her in advance, he would not care too much about other aspects.

Thinking of this, he decided to let this opportunity become an opportunity to make Ye Zifen happy.

After all, there will be plenty of time and opportunities in the future to make up for this oversight.

Moreover, when his mother was ill, he didn't worry too much about treatment, and he didn't even pay for the medication.

Therefore, he felt that it was only natural to give these treasures to his mother.

On the other side, although Mrs. Su felt a little unhappy in her heart, she did not care too much about these belongings.

To her, these things didn't have much appeal.

Mrs. Su noticed this and felt very pleased.

She was very satisfied with Mrs. Su's performance and believed that she was not deceived by material things and remained as calm and calm as she should be.

Compared with the previous one, at least the eyelids are not shallow.

In the afternoon, Ye Zifen held the items given by Mrs. Su and left in a carriage.

Once out of sight, she headed straight to Zhuangzi and concentrated on arranging the making of cotton-padded clothes.

When she arrived at Zhuangzi, she was surprised to find a large number of women waiting in line outside the village.

Facing the scene in front of her, Ye Zifen was confused, so she tied the carriage to a tree nearby, and then walked forward to ask about the situation.

After walking up to an aunt, Ye Zifen gently tugged on her sleeve and asked politely: "Hello, aunt, can you please help me answer a question?"

At this time, the lady was stretching her neck and looking forward. Suddenly she noticed that her sleeve was gently pulled. She immediately turned her head and her eyes fell on Ye Zifen.

She looked at Ye Zifen carefully, frowned slightly, and asked with a slightly dissatisfied tone: "What do you want to ask? Do you want to inquire about a certain place? Or are you lost? A young girl's home, You should stay at home, running around is not good, especially a beautiful girl like you is more likely to be in danger. "

However, Ye Zifen was not angry because of her dissatisfied words. On the contrary, she smiled slightly.

At a glance, you can tell that the other person is a cold person on the outside and hot on the inside.

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she asked softly: "Madam, what are you doing here? Queuing up here in such a cold weather, could there be some happy event in the village?"

The woman curled her lips slightly and her eyes were slightly unkind, but she still responded: "Guanshi Li on Zhuangzi sent a message to us tenant farmers, asking the women in the family who are good at needlework to come here. I heard that they are going to make cotton clothes, and these Cotton-padded clothes are provided to soldiers on the frontier, and you can get five cents for each piece made. "

Another woman behind him also spoke: "We all have children going to the border, and we are afraid that they will get cold, so we hurried here as soon as we heard the news."

At this point, Ye Zifen finally understood Li Daniu's intention and felt a little relieved.

Then she asked: "So, do I need to take the clothes home to sew, or do they have to be done directly in Zhuangzi?"

Seeing that it was not her turn yet, the woman continued to talk to Ye Zifen: "It can be done in Zhuangzi. It is said that the cloth has been cut properly and filled with cotton. We only need to sew and cut it."

Now Ye Zifen finally understood. It turned out that this was still an old tradition in their village!

There is a clear division of labor and everyone performs their duties. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect!

The doubts in her heart immediately disappeared. She was originally worried about whether three days would be enough, but now it seems that it should not be a problem.

After all, she came here just to discuss it with Liu Menger and others, but she never expected that they had already thought it through and put it into practice.

After Ye Zifen inquired about the situation clearly, he walked around to the back door of Zhuangzi and entered the interior from there.

At this time, Liu Meng'er was inside responsible for maintaining order and arranging everyone's working hours.

In fact, you don't need too many special items here, just a needle and thread.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Zifen saw several other stewards busy directing the girls in the village to work.

Some people focus on cutting clothes, cutting several layers of fabric at one time, so that they can get multiple finished products; some people are responsible for carrying fabrics, and batches of cotton and linen cloth are neatly laid out on the table; There are also people who are responsible for filling cotton. Each person is responsible for one of the links, and everything appears to be in order.

Not only that, but the finished objects have even been moved into the rooms that have been assigned to them.

Ye Zifen took a closer look and found a familiar face among the crowd - Fang You's wife!

At this moment, she was carrying items with the young girls in the village.

Seeing Ye Zifen arriving, everyone stopped what they were doing and greeted her enthusiastically.

However, Ye Zifen did not exchange too many greetings and just motioned for everyone to continue busy.

Time passed minute by minute, and half an hour passed before Li Daniu arrived belatedly.
