Reborn as a devoted sister-in-law, she leads the entire village to prosperity.
Chapter 64 Preparing the Dowry for My Elder Sister
"Okay, Uncle, hurry up and assemble your half-finished product." Yu Banxia didn't expect that he would finish what she wanted in just over two hours.
Without wasting any words, Yu Hongyu immediately assembled the small table.
Finally, Yu Banxia applied lacquer to the inlay area and then inlaid her own piece of wood.
It fits perfectly.
"It's actually a bedside table, it's really pretty."
“This could be used as a dowry, right?” the aunt, whose daughter was about to get married, suddenly asked.
Yu Banxia nodded with a smile: "I wanted to make it for my eldest sister and my second sister. It's a dowry for my eldest sister, and naturally it's part of my second sister's dowry."
"I wish I could be your older sister or younger sister, that would be so wonderful!" Yu Meihua said with tears of envy streaming down her face.
Zhao laughed and slapped her lightly. Yu Meihua cried out, "Sister Xiaxia, save me..."
"Playing the fool!" Zhao said with a laugh.
Not only are the young girls envious, but these old women are envious too.
People used to say that Yu Banxia was unreliable, but now it seems she's just too clever for her own good. She wasted all her energy on a scumbag.
I've finally come to my senses.
At the same time, Xu Xiucai was also resented. If it weren't for him delaying Xia Yatou, Anping Village would probably have become rich long ago.
"Now that it's already made, I'll definitely teach my uncle how to make it. When that happens, everyone can just ask my uncle to make one for them."
As soon as Yu Banxia said this, everyone smiled again.
"Xia Yatou must be tired after a long day. Let's go eat first and then go back to rest. Isn't Xia Yatou's Yueji Beauty salon opening tomorrow?"
"We still need to go and support her."
"Yes, yes, let Xia get some rest. We'll head back now."
Yu Banxia got up to see them off, then said to her uncle, "Uncle, you can keep this bedside table for now. If anyone wants to order it, you can use it as a reference."
"I'll tell you the method later, or I'll show you how to do it again."
"Okay," Yu Hongyu replied with a smile.
Fan Cuilan invited him to stay for dinner, and Yu Hongyu didn't stand on ceremony with his second sister-in-law.
Yu Hongyu stayed behind to study, and Yu Banxia explained things to him while waiting for everyone to leave. Yu Hongyu glanced at her and continued looking at the bedside table.
"What? You have something to say to your uncle?"
"I can't hide it from you, Uncle. There is something I need to tell you." Yu Banxia nodded.
Yu Hongyu looked up at her, waiting for her to speak.
Yu Banxia whispered, "Uncle, can you contact a skilled old carpenter?"
"Do we need to make a big one?" Yu Hongyu quickly understood.
Yu Banxia nodded and said, "My sister is already sixteen, and who knows when she'll be getting married. I'd like to give her a whole set of furniture as part of her dowry, including a big piece of furniture."
"Canopy bed!"
“A canopy bed!” they both said at the same time.
Yu Hongyu nodded: "The canopy bed does take too long to prepare. I heard that wealthy families start preparing for it when their daughters are born."
Yu Banxia nodded, then took out the drawings she had already prepared.
"My method isn't that complicated, Uncle, take a look and then decide."
Yu Hongyu was no longer surprised by Yu Banxia's efficiency; when he saw the blueprints for the canopy bed, he was nothing but shocked.
"If it's a canopy bed like this, and I don't do anything else, and with the help of an experienced craftsman, it should only take about a month."
"There's no need to rush. Just make sure it's ready before your sister gets married."
“Okay, I’ll contact my master and a few fellow disciples for help later,” Yu Hongyu said with a smile.
He completed his apprenticeship in Anping County, which wasn't far away.
Yu Banxia smiled happily: "Then I'll leave it to you, Uncle!"
“Your older sister is also my niece.” Yu Hongyu lightly tapped her forehead, then walked towards the kitchen with his hands behind his back.
As he walked, he thought to himself, "This girl only thinks of others; she will get married someday too."
As her uncle, he had nothing to repay her with, so he simply made her a set of furniture and a canopy bed.
Yu Banxia was unaware of her uncle's thoughts. Her mind was filled with the thought of whether her older sister would be so surprised and overjoyed to see the canopy bed when she got married.
Hehe...
After dinner and a bath, Yu Banyue dried her hair with a cloth, her eyes red.
"Xiaxia, having a younger sister like you is a blessing I've earned for eight lifetimes."
"Tell me, did my older sister do something incredibly good in her past life to have a younger sister like you?"
Yu Banxia laughed and joked self-deprecatingly, "I was such a scoundrel back then, you and your sister-in-law probably resented me for it, right?"
"When I think about it now, I want to strangle those two years of living in a daze. I was so shameful, so embarrassing."
"Lick?" Yu Banyue asked, puzzled.
Yu Banxia thought for a moment and said, "It's just that one person is too eager to please the other, wishing they could lick the other person's stinky feet."
"That description isn't really suitable for a girl, so please don't use it again," Yu Banyue said, frowning.
Yu Banxia nodded quickly: "We'll only talk about it at home, not outside. I may not care about my own reputation, but our girl does too."
"Xiaxia is very sensible and well-behaved now," Yu Banyue said with satisfaction.
Yu Banxia chuckled: "Well, let's not talk about the stupid things of the past. As long as I'm doing well now, that's enough, right?"
"Yes, our Xiaxia is doing well."
"Hehe, I'm sleepy, sister, are you done yet?" Yu Banxia yawned, and Yu Banyue looked at her with concern.
I've been busy all day, so it's understandable that I'm tired.
"Go to sleep, let your older sister dry you off before you sleep." Yu Banyue gently patted her, and before long, Yu Banxia really fell asleep.
Yu Banyue looked tenderly at her sleeping face and gently wiped her hair.
In the east room, Yu Hongwen held his wife's hand, his face full of smiles. Fan Cuilan also sighed softly, "Husband, I must have done something incredibly good in my past life to be able to marry you."
"My parents-in-law are kind, my sisters-in-law are harmonious, and my children are filial. Even if heaven were to grant me this moment... um..."
Before Fan Cuilan could finish speaking, Yu Hongwen covered her mouth.
"I will study hard and pass the imperial examination as soon as possible. Even if I can't become the top scholar, I will definitely pass the provincial examination. We have a long life ahead of us."
"Okay, I'll wait." Tears of happiness streamed down Fan Cuilan's face.
Wu Zhuxiang leaned against her husband's chest, her eyes moist. She felt content with her life now, with something to look forward to every day.
She was already very happy, but now her sister-in-law has changed too, and is leading the whole village to a better life.
She was incredibly happy, walking with a spring in her step every day. No matter how busy she was, she felt joyful and content.
Unbeknownst to them, Yu Banxia once again provided the family with the highest emotional value tonight, and they all drifted off to sleep with satisfied smiles.
The next morning, Yu Banxia went to Yunshan Town early.
Yueji Rong opened today, and the next day is the grand opening of Piaoxiangju. The news has been spread far and wide.
