However, Luo Ge'er meant well, and he couldn't refuse directly, so he thought about asking him to make a short-sleeved undershirt for him.

When he went to the provincial capital last year, although most of the items he bought were cotton cloth with beautiful patterns, he also bought two pieces of silk, but he kept them in his space and didn't take them out, for fear that Zhao Guizhi would think he was wasting money.

At that time, the silk was originally intended to be used as a present for my second brother's wedding, but now it seems that it will not be used.

It will take a few years for Yan Sanmei to get married, but now is a good time to make an undergarment and two small clothes for the baby in her belly.

When it comes to silk, Luo Ge'er dare not touch it. A foot of the cloth costs dozens or even hundreds of coins. It would be a disaster if it was damaged.

"You know I can't sew. If I make it myself, I'm afraid it won't be able to wear at all."

Zhao Guizhi's needlework skills are okay, but she would be heartbroken if she were asked to make silk into an inner garment.

Although Chu Xiao is not a luxury person, the summer is really hot. It's okay for men. Some of them who are particular will wear sleeveless jackets, while those who are not particular will just go shirtless.

The young man and the woman did not dare to expose anything, and wore their inner and outer clothes neatly, especially at noon, when it was so hot that their inner clothes would get wet.

It's so sticky and sticky on my body, it's so uncomfortable.

Luo Ge'er finally compromised under Chu Xiao's earnest gaze: "Okay, you can't blame me if it doesn't work out."

"Don't blame me, if I had more fabric, I would make one for Dongdong."

It's not good to ask for help without giving anything in return. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, and the villagers who have received help from this place should be reciprocated.

"Then I have to thank Uncle Xiao on behalf of Dongdong. He can wear silk clothes at such a young age." Luo Ge'er joked.

Recently, the Yan family has stopped Chu Xiao from washing clothes, fearing that he would bend over all the time and put pressure on his stomach. But he had nothing to do while sitting, so he cut some grass nearby.

It’s not far from Luo Ge’er, so sometimes when I think of something, I can chat with her.

The young wives who were washing clothes in the village would occasionally glance over here, but they had little clothes to wash, so they would be gone after a while.

Xiaoge'er went to the river to clear his hands, then took out a bag of pastries from his bag and shared them with Luoge'er.

Luo Ge'er didn't bother to be polite with him. He took a piece and put it in his mouth. Since there were no outsiders around, he didn't care about his image and started gossiping with Chu Xiao.

"Didn't Zhang Erni ask Gu Pan to pay for her brother's education? Unexpectedly, instead of receiving the money, Gu Pan gave her a divorce letter."

Chu Xiao knew a little about this matter, because Brother Shen mentioned it when he came back from buying land.

"Have you divorced yet?" Chu Xiao felt it was quite pleasant to eat cakes and listen to gossip.

"How can that be possible." Luo Ge'er sneered: "It sounds nice to say that it's a divorce, but to outsiders it's the same as being abandoned. Girls and boys are different from men. As long as you have money, you can find another one. But divorced girls are second-hand goods as the old people in the village say. They are all wives. Who doesn't want to marry a virgin girl? Why would you want someone else..."

Luo Ge'er quickly slapped his own mouth, feeling that he had become uncontrollable with his mouth because of Wang Wu.

"If you look for someone else, you can only find some second-rate old bachelors." Luo Ge'er seemed to be thinking of Lin Ge'er, and couldn't help but sigh: "Just look at Lin Ge'er and you will know what kind of life a man who is married off for the second time can live."

Chu Xiao nodded, and it seemed that Zhang Erni didn't want to divorce.

"So what happened next?"

Luo Ge'er snorted, "Zhang Erni is just an unsatisfied person. After receiving the divorce letter, she went to Gu Pan to make a scene, saying that the Gu family was stingy and that Gu Pan was incompetent. This made Gu Pan very angry, so he drove her out again and said that it was okay if we didn't want a divorce, so he divorced her."

Divorce is not something that can be done just like that, especially in the countryside. Everyone knows the "Seven Reasons for Divorce" and the "Three Reasons for Not Divorcing", but apart from the inability to give birth to a child, few people can explain the other reasons.

What's more, it is not easy for a farmer to marry a wife, let alone divorce her.

"I didn't quite understand it, but Gu Pan went to ask the village chief, and he said that Zhang Erni was not filial to her parents, had no children, had a bad temper, and always took things from her husband's family to her parents'. She had committed four offenses, so he could indeed divorce her."

But since ancient times, people have been encouraging reconciliation rather than separation, so the village chief still tried to persuade them to reconcile.

"The Zhang family came to apologize, saying that they had failed to educate their daughter, but Gu's mother refused to let them in, saying that her son would rather remain single than marry a woman like her."

Luo Ge'er covered his mouth and laughed as he spoke: "This was the idea of ​​your Hunter Yan and Wang Wu. No matter what, we have to punish the Zhang family."

Chu Xiao: “…” His brother Shen didn’t say this, why do I suddenly feel that this person is mean and sinister.

As they were talking, they saw a figure walking towards the village, holding a large wooden basin full of clothes.

Chu Xiao looked up and felt that it seemed familiar.

Luo Geer followed his line of sight and looked over, then immediately looked away, whispering, "As soon as I mentioned her, she showed up."

Chu Xiao then realized that this person was Gu Pan's wife Zhang Erni, but the woman in his memory was very glamorous and beautiful.

If we talk about the girls in the village who love dressing up the most, Chu Wanwan ranks first, and Zhang Erni ranks second.

But now, not only does she look much more haggard, but her clothes are also as gray as those of the women in the village, without any bright colors.

As if she knew what Chu Xiao was thinking, Luo Geer explained in a low voice: "She didn't bring any clothes when she went back to her parents' home, and Mother Gu didn't allow her to go back to get them. What she's wearing now are the clothes she wore when she worked in the fields before she got married."

"Before, the Zhang family wanted her to marry into a rich family, so they would definitely dress her up. Now she will be sent back to her parents' home. Not only will the Zhang family not spend a penny on her, but she will also have to do all the work."

Luo Geer rolled his eyes and said, "I did it all myself."

Chu Xiao said nothing, just chuckled. When he was in the end times, there were fewer women than men, but the end times are the end times, no one will be treated preferentially. If you really count it, the women there may not live better than the guys here.

In order to survive, the daughters will try their best to get close to more capable people with special abilities, so Chu Xiao doesn’t think there is anything wrong with climbing up the social ladder.

After all, everyone has their own ambitions.

But speaking objectively, he also looked down on Zhang Erni. He felt that this kind of person was what his teacher had called "neither high nor low".

She is not worthy of her position and looks down on people who are on the same level as her. She does not know her own position and always suffers.

"Er Ni, there are so many clothes to wash." Luo Ge'er greeted someone when he saw her approaching.

Zhang Erni said 'hmm' and put down the washing basin not far from Luo Ge'er. "Um, did your Wang Wu tell you whether Gu Pan has calmed down?"

"The rabbits in this family have given birth to several litters of puppies. Wang Wu has been busy dividing the nests for the rabbits and has not been out for a while."

Luo Ge'er doesn't want to get involved in the couple's affairs, and naturally won't let his son Wang Wu interfere, lest the two of them reconcile in the future and make them feel embarrassed.
