Chapter 329 Buying Clothes

Shen Wenshan was surprised and said, "Is that their daughter-in-law? Why is she here now? I haven't heard of her before."

Ji Wenhe spread out the branches he had removed: "You'll know in a moment."

"Sister-in-law, can't you tell us now?"

"No, wait for Brother Liang to come over and tell you himself."

Not long after, Shen Liang came over with a happy look on his face.

Shen Yuanshan couldn't wait to ask: "Brother Liang, your family is going to have a wedding."

"Yes, let's prepare a banquet." He looked at Shen Rongshan, "Let's go to town to buy meat tomorrow. I'll take her to buy two sets of clothes."

Ji Wenhe took over the conversation: "Brother Shen, I will go with you."

"Okay." He nodded and asked doubtfully, "What about Zhang Shuanzi's family? Aren't they looking for her business?"

"Well, I returned the three taels of silver to their family."

The twins looked at each other.

They knew about Zhang Shuanzi's family, but they didn't expect that the girl they bought would eventually become Shen Liang's wife.

Ji Wenhe remembered that he had not given them the money, so he hurried back and brought back three taels of silver for Shen Liang.

Everyone in the village knew about this. Some people gave their blessings, but some were still not optimistic.

After Shen Liang left, Shen Rongshan asked in a low voice: "Wen He, why is she back?"

"The family disowned her, and she came back to return the money to Zhang Shuanzi's family. She ran into me outside the village and we chatted for a while."

"Can their family let it go so easily?" They were afraid that they would come to their house to cause trouble later.

"Don't worry, Zhao Xiaoxi won't let anyone bully her. She's very strong, and with Brother Liang here, she's not afraid of not being able to beat them."

Ji Wenhe glanced sideways and saw He Yuxiang coming over, and said with a smile: "Aunt He, let's go to Aunt Miao's house for a feast tomorrow."

"Go ahead." He went to her side and whispered, "This girl was bought by Zhang Shuanzi. If they marry her back, they won't be afraid of getting into trouble."

"Zhao Xiaoxi has no connection with that place. The three taels of silver have already been repaid. I don't think they will come to cause trouble."

She shook her head: "It's not good to tell others that they bought a daughter-in-law and married her back."

"What's wrong with that? It's fair and aboveboard, and we both agreed. I think those who maliciously spread rumors behind the scenes should go to hell and have their tongues pulled out."

He Yuxiang said, "Wen He, you are still young and don't understand. There are few people in our village, so there are not so many things to do. In those big villages outside, many people have bad mouths and can drown you with a mouthful of spit."

Ji Wenhe looked at Miao Zhaodi's house and said, "We can't control what others say. If it doesn't work, we can go to their house and beat them up, tear their mouths to pieces, and see if they dare to make rumors behind their backs again."

"You, no wonder no one dares to bully you. If someone said something bad about you behind your back, you would really dare to tear her mouth apart."

"Aunt He, is someone saying bad things about me behind my back? Or is someone making up rumors about me behind my back?"

If there were, she would let them know how powerful she was.

"No, I was just talking."

At this time, Lin Yueniang entered the village.

"Aunt He, Lin Yue Niang is here. Could she be here to look for Aunt Miao?"

He Yuxiang looked over and said, "Maybe. I'll go and take a look."

The people who gathered in front of Miao Zhaodi's house have dispersed.

Shen Rongshan held the rake and called to her: "Wen He, take it back. I'll go build the house."

Ji Wenhe took it: "Okay."

He took the rake home, took the basket to the vegetable garden, picked a few cucumbers, washed them and brought them over.

"Uncle Shen, Uncle Ping, Anguo, wash your hands and eat a cucumber."

There was a clay pot next to it, filled with water.

Shen Ping asked: "Wen He, Shen Liang is getting married tomorrow, so soon, where is the girl?"

"Her home is far away. I haven't asked where it is exactly."

"I heard it's quite far away." Zhao Sanniang walked in. "The girl was the wife bought by Zhao Shuanzi. Later she ran away and was met by Shen Liang."

"The girl returned the three taels of silver to their family. Now she has nothing to do with them. I think this girl is good."

"Aunt Zhao, have a cucumber." Ji Wenhe handed it to her.

"I don't want to eat. I just ate at home. You guys can eat it."

I put my child to sleep at home and thought of coming over to take a look. I saw that there were a lot of people gathered in front of their house, so I listened for a while.

Shen Erniu said worriedly, "I'm afraid that their family will come and cause trouble in the future, spread rumors about this girl, and ruin her reputation."

Shen Ping took over the conversation: "I don't think they dare. Shen Liang will not allow them to bully him. Didn't I say that the girl is very strong and the two people in their family couldn't hold her down."

"If things really get out of hand, Zhang Shuanzi's family won't get any benefit. Isn't it too soon to hold a banquet tomorrow?"

Zhao Sanniang replied: "I am afraid that the night will be long and dreams will abound. If we get things done sooner, Sister Miao and the others will feel at ease."

"Yes." Ji Wenhe agreed, "After getting married, Aunt Miao won't have to worry anymore."

The burden has been lifted and I am waiting to hold my grandchildren.

Early the next morning.

Seeing that she didn't bring her straw hat, Shen Rongshan turned back to get it. When he got to the foot of the mountain, he said, "Wen He, put on your hat."

"Brother Liang and the others haven't arrived yet. I'll go and call them."

Looking behind her: "They are coming."

Zhao Xiaoxi followed behind him, a little shy.

"Rongshan, let's go."

Ji Wenhe got on the donkey cart and patted the seat next to him: "Come, sit next to me."

When we were out of the village, he asked, "Xiaoxi, how old are you?"

"sixteen."

"Then you are one year younger than me. From now on, you can call me Wen He and I will call you Xiao Xi."

She nodded with a smile: "Yeah."

Shen Liang sat behind them and said, "Sister-in-law, you accompany her to buy clothes. I'm going to buy meat and I won't follow her. We'll come back early after we finish shopping."

"Okay, I'll go with her."

Along the way, Ji Wenhe told her a lot of things about the village, how everyone was easy to get along with, etc...

When they arrived in the town, they separated into twos.

Zhao Xiaoxi said, "Wen He, I don't want to buy ready-made clothes. They are too expensive. It's better to buy fabrics and make them myself."

"But you're getting married in the afternoon, so of course it's better to wear new clothes. I won't have enough time to make them after buying the cloth. How about buying one set and the cloth for the other? What do you think?"

She hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, if we get married tomorrow, I can make the dress this afternoon."

If I had known earlier, I would have asked them to book it for tomorrow and saved a lot of money.

"Wen He, I want to buy a pair of shoes and a pair of cotton shoes. I won't buy anything else until I have more money."

Ji Wenhe wanted to persuade her, but finally decided to do as she wished: "Okay, this is your business after all, you decide."

After buying the clothes, I went to the Qingyu Cloth Shop to buy some cloth, and then went to the shoe store to buy two pairs of shoes.

After leaving the shop: "Let's go, let's wait outside the town."

Zhao Xiaoxi looked at her empty hands and said, "Wen He, aren't you going to buy anything?"

"Brother Shen is here to buy meat in town, so I'll accompany you and come over to play with you guys."
