Chapter 685 Don't Play with Fire, You'll Wet the Bed
For dinner, there was pickled pork ribs and pickled meat with dried radish. Su Ziling mixed some gray grass with a cold salad, stir-fried some Chinese cabbage, beat two eggs and stir-fried leeks, and the soup was rice soup.
There was no sound at the table during the entire meal. Usually, the one who talked the most was Su Ziling, who talked to the old man about what he was doing next and had a few words with Lu Yan.
From time to time, she would pick up some dishes for Grandma Su and Mother Su, and would definitely talk about the new food.
But today she hardly spoke, and only said a few words when Mr. Su asked her.
Su's mother and Su's grandmother looked at each other, and their eyes showed: It is as expected.
While Su Zizhong was scooping rice for Lu Yan, he glanced at him, his eyes clearly showing: Haven't you coaxed him yet?
Lu Yan shook his head slightly.
He saw Su Zizhong's slightly disgusted look, as if saying: You are so useless!
Lu Yan: "..."
After eating and washing up, since it was still early, everyone sat by the fire and warmed themselves.
After entering October, the temperature dropped sharply in the morning and evening. It was still hot during the day, but it was so cold in the morning and evening that I started to shiver.
Grandma Su rubbed her hands and said, "Let's go buy some cotton and cloth in a couple of days. We need to make new cotton-padded clothes. We have some to wear, and your sister-in-law has some pomegranates, but the other two don't have any yet."
"A Xiu has grown taller, so she can no longer wear the clothes she wore last year. Er Niu has also grown taller in the past six months, so his cotton-padded jacket and robe need to be remade."
Su Ziling took a stick and gently poked the firewood in the fire pit. Sparks flew and the fire became brighter.
"Okay, I'll buy some more and make one for everyone. I have to make shoes too. They're not durable at all after running long distances every day. I'm going to make it hard for you, grandma."
"Why should I work so hard? You can find someone to make the preserved eggs, and your mother and the others can just weigh the olives. Your sister-in-law will also take care of the cooking, pork and beef. You can do whatever else you need to do. When the time comes, you can buy them and I will cook them slowly. It's just to kill time."
When Wang Anan heard about making a new cotton-padded jacket for her, she waved her hands repeatedly, "Grandma, you don't have to make mine. I brought some cotton-padded jackets with me. They can be worn after drying them in the sun and banging them. You can make some for Qing and the others."
Before she got married, Grandma Su made two sets of clothes for her and also sent her a lot of cloth. She had no shortage of clothes to wear now, but those clothes were too new. She usually wore the ones she used to work in. She would only wear new clothes when she was visiting someone's house or when something happened.
Grandma Su often criticized her for this.
"Old clothes are not warm enough anymore. Besides, our family is well-off now. We can eat and drink as needed, buy things as needed, and spend the money we earn. If I earn money but you can't even wear new clothes, then what's the point of earning money? It's just for show."
Su Ziling didn't look up, just kept playing with fire with his head down.
Grandma Su patted her hand gently and said, "Don't play with fire. Be careful not to wet the bed at night."
Su Ziling: "..."
Su Ziling's defense was immediately broken. She had been holding it in for the entire night, and she almost laughed out loud at what Grandma Su said.
"Grandma!" Her tone was full of helplessness, "How old am I? Can I still wet the bed?"
"How old? Seventeen!" Grandma Su answered seriously, "Playing with fire will make you wet the bed. It has nothing to do with your age."
After saying that, he looked at Wang Anan, "This girl is right. Now that we have earned money, we should spend it. You can buy more and make two sets of clothes for your sister-in-law. She doesn't have many thick clothes. For shoes, buy some darker fabrics and some lighter fabrics. You girls should make something bright. It's not okay to wear the same clothes as us old men and women every day."
Su Ziling said indifferently, "Why do you need to wear something so bright? You're not going to see an official. Darker colors are better and they won't get dirty easily. If you wear something so bright, it will get dirty before you even leave the house, and it won't be easy to wash."
The mountains are full of mud and grass, and it is really hard to wash them clean. If the mud is darker, the grass won’t be visible after washing it off.
"Look at her, she doesn't look like a little girl at all. She didn't have the conditions before, but now she has better conditions and more money, so she should wear brighter colors." The first half of the sentence was said to Wang Anan, and the second half was said to Su Ziling.
Wang Anan smiled and said, "I also like darker colors, which are easier to wash, but Ah Qing should really wear lighter colors."
"See, your sister-in-law said you look good in light-colored clothes." Grandma Su looked at her and said.
"When Ah Qing buys it back, I'll make it with you, grandma. Although my craftsmanship is not as good as grandma's, I can still make clothes. By the way, I have two pieces of peach-colored cotton cloth in my room. I'll make a suit for Ah Qing when the time comes."
Thinking of the pink color, Su Ziling shuddered, "Sister-in-law, please forgive me, I can't handle that color. Besides, I haven't worn the dress you made for me some time ago."
On the day of Wang Anan's wedding, she received a lot of cloth. The cotton ones were sent by Lu Yan, and some coarse cloth was sent by Uncle Li and several uncles.
On the second day after the wedding, she gave a piece of dark cloth to Su Grandma and Su Mother, and she made the clothes for Su Ziling and A Xiu herself. They were both light green and the designs were quite nice.
Su Zimu and Grandpa Su each made a pair of shoes. They started making these shoes when they were at her mother's house.
Grandma Su readily agreed, "Okay, you are skillful and the clothes you make are beautiful. I will teach you a few more patterns and needlework techniques, and the clothes you make will be no worse than the ready-made clothes sold outside."
"I only know some simple needlework. Grandma, please don't think I'm clumsy when the time comes." Wang Anan said in a delicate tone, as if Grandma Su was her own grandma.
Grandma Su also likes her, probably because her temper is somewhat like Su Ziling. Plus, she is also good at dealing with things. She has a round face, which makes her even cuter when she smiles. She looks like a very blessed person.
We sat by the fire and chatted for a while, then went back to sleep when we saw it was almost time.
Everyone went back to the house. Su Ziling hesitated in the kitchen for a moment and went to Grandma Su's room.
When there was a knock on the door, Grandma Su had already gone to bed, and Grandpa Su was just about to go out with the fire basket. It was cold, and Grandma Su wouldn't be able to sleep well without the fire basket.
So every night Grandpa Su would carry a fire basket to get charcoal for Grandma Su. He would put the red-hot charcoal in the fire basket and cover it with a layer of cold ash, and Grandma Su would then put it in the quilt.
Although there are only five or six pieces of charcoal in a basket, it can keep you warm until dawn.
"Why are you here?" As soon as he opened the door, he saw her standing outside, and his face was full of surprise.
"Talk to my grandma for a while," Su Ziling looked at the fire basket in his hand, "Grandpa, are you going to get some charcoal? Then bring the oil lamp. The fire in the kitchen is out, and it's dark."
Old Master Su went to the kitchen carrying a fire basket and an oil lamp. After adding the charcoal, he sat for a while and drank a cup of tea.
