Xie Yao's voice came from the door. A gust of cold air came in when the door was opened. Shen Lu glanced at the ground and saw a thin layer of snow.

"My mother said she wanted to make a jacket for you two. The weather is getting colder and colder. Ten layers of thin clothes are not as good as one layer of cotton. A cotton jacket made by yourself is comfortable and warm."

He made one for his mother and one for the young educated youth. Thinking of the money that Su Chen secretly gave him last night, he also had to prepare one for Xu Shiqing, which was almost three kilograms of cotton.

In this season, people generally need to keep warm, and you can't buy so many at one time, so most people just flick the original ones and continue using them.

Damn, it's already a little hard, and it won't be as warm even if I bounce it again. The young educated youth definitely wouldn't have prepared this when he first arrived. He got this cotton after a big trip last night, and he didn't come back until noon.

Knowing that Xu Zhiqing had difficulty walking, the body shapes of Xie Yao's sister-in-law and Xu Shiqing were not much different, so it would be fine if they were a little narrower. This time, she came mainly to bring Shen Lu to see Xie's mother to measure her size. Xie's mother had stockpiled a large piece of pink floral cloth, which was just right for her to use.

Shen Lu went back to the house and took out a pound of cotton from the box. This was what Shen Lu bought because the weather was getting cold. She was thinking of asking someone to make a cushion for her one day. Now it seemed like a good time to take it with her, otherwise she would not have the nerve to go.

Xu Shiqing gave two canned peaches to Shen Lu and asked her to take them over. It was a token of her appreciation that Xie's mother was willing to take the trouble to make clothes for them, but it was not right to let someone work for nothing. Only when there is give and take can the relationship last long.

Xie's mother was just planning to give some of her share to her eldest daughter-in-law to make a cotton jacket, but she was worried that her eldest son would feel uncomfortable seeing it. Just as she was worrying about this, Shen Lu came into the house carrying cotton.

"Shen Zhiqing, come and sit down. Get on the kang quickly. The ground is cold."

Nowadays, when you go to someone's house, you have to take off your shoes and get on the kang, otherwise you really can't stay there. As the village chief, Xie Jianmin must go to the village office when it snows and shout a few words to those who haven't returned yet, asking them to go home quickly as it will be difficult to walk after dark.

There was only Xie's mother on the kang, which was covered with a mat and looked clean and tidy. There was a sewing basket on the kang table, and next to it was a piece of cut dark blue cloth. It belonged to Xie's mother. People of her age usually wear darker cloth so that it wouldn't look dirty when they were working.

There was a piece of unfolded pink fabric next to it. Shen Lu guessed that it was made for her and Xu Shiqing.

Shen Lu put the things in her hand on the kang, and Xie Yao followed behind with a can of

"Shen Zhiqing, what are you doing? What you brought is enough. Why did you bring so much more? It's too much."

Shen Lu looked at Xie Yao with a puzzled look. He touched his nose guiltily. He had been only looking at the young educated youth the whole way and forgot to explain this matter to her.

He told Xie's mother that Shen Lu and Xu Shiqing gave him money to carry the cotton.

Now he and the young educated girl haven't confirmed their relationship yet, and it wouldn't be nice to let his mother know that he did these things to the young educated girl. He doesn't want his mother to think of the young educated girl as the kind of girl who would take advantage of him, and he can't let his mother look down on Shen Lu.

He tried his best to prevent possible conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, but he forgot to tell people about it as soon as he saw them.

"Auntie, this is for you. Thank you for taking the trouble to make clothes for us. We just arrived and we really haven't prepared anything. Fortunately, you are here."

She also saw something from Xie Yao's eyes. Since he had already said it, she couldn't say anything else.

"Shen Zhiqing is so polite. I made it for you because I like you, but I don't want your things. If you want to do this, I won't make it for you. Take the things back quickly."
