I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

"how come!"

Fu Jichang said.

Cuijinlou is the largest silver shop in Anzhou and a major taxpayer. How could he not know about it?

The wives of officials in Anzhou were happy to make friends with these wealthy businessmen, and the rich wives were eager to get close to the wives of officials.

Each side gets what it needs and both sides benefit.

After all, officials’ salaries are not much.

Qingshui official, the family is even more tight.

That day, Liang Zhizhou also mentioned that there was a birthday party for the wife of the Ruo family in Cuijinlou, and asked whether the women in Fu Jichang's family would attend.

Fu Jichang had just arrived in Anzhou and was not very familiar with these wealthy businessmen. He relied on the wives to build closer relationships and make it easier to get things done in the future.

Ji Xiaobei, let’s consider her as one of the female members of the Fu family.

Fu Jichang looked up at Ji Xiaobei meaningfully.

Ji Xiaobei didn't know that she had already been called a member of the Fu family.

"By the way, I'll get you the jade pendant and gold!"

Ji Xiaobei said this and was about to go to his room.

"No, I have something to tell you."

Fu Jichang grabbed Ji Xiaobei's sleeve with too much force, and only a crackling sound was heard.

Ji Xiaobei's sleeves were torn.

Ji Xiaobei suddenly got angry and his face turned red.

Fu Jichang saw that he was in trouble. Such good clothes were torn. It was such a sin.

He suddenly remembered that in Jijia Bay, Ji Xiaobei had torn his sleeves, and he felt a little excited that his revenge was successful.

But he still took two steps back automatically. If Ji Xiaobei's big palm was swung over, even a donkey would not be able to withstand it.

Ji Xiaobei ignored him.

He gritted his teeth, shook his drooping sleeves and cursed:

"What the hell, this is a piece of shit, and they say it's good material, but they sell it for so much, it's really a rip off..."

Fu Jichang: My train of thought has gone astray again!

Shouldn't she have scolded me? Why scold the material of the clothes?

Ji Xiaobei said angrily: "My son, I'm going to find the owner of the clothing store. A set of clothes cost 82 taels of silver, and it's so fragile..."

Fu Jichang: ...

"What are you standing there for?" Ji Xiaobei pulled Fu Jichang's sleeve.

Fu Jichang was prepared. He couldn't let his sleeves get up, so he dodged in a hurry and a piece of yellow paper fell out of his sleeves.

His face turned red and he hurriedly bent down to pick it up.

But Ji Xiaobei stepped on the paper.

"Pattern, the pattern of ready-made clothes, how do you know I need this..." Ji Xiaobei said with a laugh.

Fu Jichang: ...No! You must not read it.

When Ji Xiaobei opened it, his expression changed immediately.

It turned out to be me!

The vivid portrait painted by Fu Jichang in Jijiawan.

He is strong and majestic!

Ji Lizheng commented: It's more real than the real thing!

Ji Xiaobei gritted his teeth and glared at Fu Jichang.

"No, Xiaobei, listen to me!" Fu Jichang hurriedly apologized.

"Didn't I tell you to tear it up? You're still keeping it. I see you're sincere..."

"I am indeed sincere, no, I am not sincere..."

The more Fu Jichang explained, the more confusing it became, and the worse it got.

Ji Xiaobei was so angry that he threw the yellow paper at him and said angrily: "Don't even think of the jade pendant and the gold. Just consider it as compensation for my mental loss!"

"Oh, okay, I'll compensate you, I'll compensate you..." Fu Jichang reached out to pull Ji Xiaobei again, preventing her from entering the house.

Coming into the room so angrily, Mrs. Lin thought she had bullied her daughter.

With a "hiss", the hanging half sleeve was completely pulled off.

Ji Xiaobei: ...Damn it, so unlucky!

No, I'm going to go find the shopkeeper. These fabrics are all fake.

"No, Xiaobei, what I want to tell you is that the fabric is actually top-quality and looks good on you. It may just be that you and I are a little too strong!"

Fu Jichang swallowed and thought to himself: Girls who can afford to wear this material are as weak as willows, how can they be as strong as you?

"You mean the interaction force is too great and the fabric can't bear it?" Ji Xiaobei stared.

Fu Jichang nodded quickly.

"It's a beautiful thing, but it's useless!"

Ji Xiaobei squinted at Fu Jichang.

Fu Jichang: ...

Ji Xiaobei: Forget it, forget it. After such a short while, Xiaoyaozi’s mouth has opened into an O shape several times. It’s not difficult for him. Let him do something within his ability.

"Well, can you help me draw two more patterns?" Ji Xiaobei asked.

Fu Jichang: Why do I have this assignment again? I am the magistrate of Anzhou, and instead of reviewing official documents, I lie on the desk and draw pictures. It's hard to describe.

If He Ye knew about this, wouldn't he be laughed to death?

He agreed without hesitation: "Sure, but don't worry, I'm busy recently, I will definitely help you draw when I have time."

The three old ladies in the room knelt by the windowsill, each with a different expression.

Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth and said: Damn it, a set of clothes costs 82 taels and it’s so weak, it’s really a rip-off.

Mrs. Huang watched with great interest: It has been a long time since I saw these two people quarreling. Familiar recipe, familiar taste.

Old Mrs. Fu shook the feather duster in her hand: "Everything has its own nemesis. My grandson has such a cold temper. He needs someone to control him."

Fu Jichang took the black tower away.

Ji Xiaobei had a sad face, stamped his feet, and went to the backyard to find Tailor Guo and Embroider Luo.

She asked if it could be repaired, and she wanted to go to the clothing store to ask the owner to fix it.

The two new employees rubbed their hands together, eager to try. It was time to show their true strength.

"Miss Ji, you have a ready-made tailor and embroiderer by your side. This dress looks really good on you, as if it was specially tailored for you." Luo Xiu Niang praised.

Ji Xiaobei: "It was indeed tailor-made, and cost 82 taels of silver!"

The two of them were so excited just now, but when they heard that it was so expensive, their hands holding the half-cut sleeves began to tremble.

To be honest, this dress is quite expensive.

This half sleeve in my hand is worth 10 taels.

What they said aroused Ji Xiaobei's interest. She wanted to see their strength.

"Then I'll leave it to you two!"

She simply took off her clothes and threw them on the table.

The small clothes inside were a little tight, so she asked the two to make another set of clothes for her.

This should be the last one, and it will be time to unload it in two months.

The two women looked at Ji Xiaobei's waist and then they were sure that she was really pregnant.

However, this was the host's private matter, so they quickly turned their eyes away and measured Ji Xiaobei's body.

Ji Xiaobei's clothes were mended day and night by tailor Guo and embroiderer Luo.

If you don't look closely, you can't really see any signs of repair.

Ji Xiaobei was quite satisfied. The craftsmanship of the ancient people was truly amazing.

Ji Xiaobei felt that the fact that they were able to repair the fabrics without leaving any traces was because the fabrics were all hand-woven.

Modern fabrics are all machine-processed, so it is difficult to repair them if they are damaged.

Ji Xiaobei was quite satisfied with their craftsmanship.

I just don't know if they can cut out and make the patterns that Xiaoyao draws.

Ji Xiaobei followed them to buy some cloth and silk threads these days.

Mrs. Lin moved her things here and lived next to the handicraft shop to save herself the trouble of running back and forth.

It would be more convenient for Mrs. Fu to live here.

That day, Ji Xiaobei drove Ma Debiao out to the south city to find the hunchbacked woman.
