"Sister-in-law, you are right! Our Gu family's life will definitely be better and better in the future. The warehouse is full of food and there are countless clothes."
"Speaking of which, Third Sister-in-law, just in time, I have something to ask you to help with. My sister in Yue City is getting married, and she should have a baby soon. Please help make some clothes for the newborn baby. Well, including Be made one too.”
"When it's done, I'll give you the money together!"
Lin Yunchu said to Gu Qiuhong in the room.
When Gu Qiuhong heard this, she immediately responded, "Hey, great! Just give me the fabric. The clothes for the children must be pure cotton."
"How about Sister-in-law, please help me buy some pure cotton fabric. You should be more familiar with it!"
Gu Qiuhong was extremely happy.
She just wanted to go to town.
She had never had any spare money before. After Lin Yunchu paid for the craftsmanship, she planned to buy something and go back to her parents' home.
Her mother's birthday is the day after tomorrow, and she has something in her hands. She feels very confident and has a lot of face when she goes to her mother's house.
"Sister-in-law, do you have anything else to do? If there is nothing else, I will go and get busy first!"
Lin Yunchu left with a smile.
"..." Luo Feifei finally realized that whenever she spoke, Lin Yunchu would deliberately make her angry.
"Third brother and sister, there is something I think we should talk about."
Luo Feifei called Gu Qiuhong to stop.
Gu Qiuhong turned to look at Luo Feifei and asked, "Sister-in-law, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Every time I look for trouble, Lin Yunchu lets you make money. Don't you think it's all because of me that you can make all this money from her? Without me, you can make money so smoothly. Don't you think it's because of me? Do you want me to share half of the money?"
Luo Feifei asked rationally.
"..." Gu Qiuhong found it extremely funny, "Sister-in-law, you are really good at joking. When you go out to work, will you share half of my money? I charge my sister-in-law some craft fees, and you still want to share my money. How can you really say that? !”
"Gu Qiuhong, you!"
"Sister-in-law, I make money based on my skills. If you are not convinced, you can ask my sister-in-law to ask you to make clothes together. I am not the only one who has a sewing machine at home, you also have one!"
Gu Qiuhong responded to her unceremoniously.
Luo Feifei gritted her teeth, "You were sure she wouldn't do it to me, so that's why you said this!"
"Sister-in-law, if I could figure things out, I would have gone to the market and set up a stall long ago."
Gu Qiuhong continued, "Sister-in-law, don't you have a backer? You go on to complain to Sister-in-law Keke! What are you doing to me?"
"Who said I complained?"
"You still don't admit it! Sister-in-law Keke has already found someone to question me! Sister-in-law, you have to be kind. You can't want both. You know full well that Sister-in-law Yunchu and Sister-in-law Keke are incompatible, but you are taking advantage of Sister-in-law Keke. , they still want sister-in-law Yunchu’s business. This is a bit greedy!"
"Okay! Sister-in-law, I have to go to the town to buy fabrics. If you are not busy, feed all the livestock at home!"
Luo Feifei was angry.
After all, she was merciful!
If I had known earlier, I would have released the news that Pei Huaiyuan was finished and made Lin Yunchu a widow early to see if she was arrogant or not!

At this time, Pei Huaiyuan had already received the leave application from the army.
After discussion, the army disagreed with his discharge.
He was granted a long leave.
He could take as long a vacation as he wanted.
Now that the matter has come to this, Pei Huaiyuan is no longer insisting.
He recovered quickly but was not completely healed.
The broken ribs on his body were not completely healed, and he was a little unsteady when walking.
But his heart was a little urgent.
I haven't been home for three years. The children must have grown very tall.
I wonder if they still recognize him.
When he took little Meimei back, she was still in her infancy. She should be very big now and can walk and talk on her own.
And Ankang, the child, had memories when he took him back to Pei's house.
Knowing that his own parents are no longer here, I wonder how he has been living in the Pei family over the years.
He has not written to them in these years. Haonan is still young, only six years old, but Ankang is eight years old and should be able to read and write.
Pei Huaiyuan originally wanted to buy some brand new clothes to go home, but when he thought that he didn't know their height and weight at all, the clothes he bought were either too big or too small, which was not good.
"Chief, I'm going home first. Please help me with the annulment of my marriage as soon as possible!"
In order to handle this matter quickly and smoothly, Pei Huaiyuan looked for the leader again.
"Huaiyuan, you kid, I really don't know if you are sincere or stupid! You don't want a wife even if you have one! No matter how the wife comes, you will have a wife after all."
"Chief, marriage is a matter of mutual consent. She and I have never met, and there are four children at home, so it's not suitable."
"Okay, okay! I will urge you here. You have to go back tomorrow, and this matter will definitely not be completed. After this matter is completed, I will inform you here!"
Pei Huaiyuan nodded, "Thank you, chief."
After returning to the dormitory, he began to pack his luggage.
He didn't have much luggage, so when he saw a white handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks in his suitcase, he took it over and slowly folded it.
This was the veil that the girl used to bandage his wound that night when she saw it was bleeding.
When she was sent to the military hospital, he wanted to give it back to her directly.
But strangely enough, he didn't say anything.

Gu family.
"Brother, mom gave us a big bowl of fried rice. It's super delicious. Let's eat together."
As soon as Pei Haonan came back, he called Pei Ankang happily.
The Pei family's house is similar to the Gu family's house, with a courtyard layout.
The three brothers of the Pei family are not separated.
The eldest and second brothers of the Pei family have always been at home, and their children have grown up, so they are divided into two houses.
Pei Huaiyuan only had one room, and the four children he brought back all slept in this room.
Pei Yinyao used to sleep with Pei's mother-in-law. Once, Pei's mother-in-law went out to work early in the morning. Pei Yinyao cried alone in bed, and no other adults in the family cared about her.
Pei Ankang entered his grandma's room and saw Pei Yinyao wearing thin clothes on a cold night, shivering from the cold outside the quilt, her little face was filled with fear, and she looked particularly pitiful.
After that night, Pei Ankang took his sister with him.
Pei Yinyao was still young and had little sense of gender, so she was very happy to sleep with her brothers.
When she sleeps with her brother, even though she will be held down by him who sleeps crookedly, at least she is not alone. She feels safe with her brothers by her side.
As soon as Pei Haonan shouted, Pei Yucheng and Pei Yinyao got up immediately.
The fried rice made by my mother must be delicious!
"Brother, eat it!"
Pei Haonan saw that Pei Ankang was not moving, so he pulled him.
"I won't eat!" Pei Ankang said firmly.
He is not the kind of person who can be bribed with small favors.
"Brother, it's really delicious." Pei Haonan said after taking a big mouthful of food.
"You can eat it yourself if you want."
"Then you will be hungry." Pei Haonan reminded.
The other children of the Pei family have to go to school. Their aunt and second aunt prepare meals for them early in the morning and let them eat and go to school.
They don't go to school and have to wait for the adults to finish their work before they can eat.
Many times, it is almost noon when they come back, and they will be hungry all morning.
Pei Ankang was indifferent and just lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes casting thick shadows on his eyelids.
"Have you finished eating? My cousin gave us a lot of clothes. Come over and try them on after you finish eating."
Pei Ankang took out the clothes he brought back yesterday and put them on the bed.
"oh."
Pei Haonan and Pei Yucheng responded and walked over.
Then I tried on the clothes. The clothes Pei Ankang brought back were all very big and basically didn't fit.
"When you grow up, you can wear these clothes. Others give us clothes as a courtesy."
The other children in the family all have grandmothers. Their grandmothers, uncles and aunts either give them clothes or delicious food, but they don't have any. Every time they see their cousins come back from their grandmother's house, they are all greedy.
Only this cousin paid them some attention, invited them to their home, and gave them something.
In the past, no matter whether the clothes he brought back were big or small, these little ones were very happy.
Today I feel a little lack of interest and not excited at all.
"Brother, we like these clothes and can wear them when we grow up. But I also want to tell you good news. Look, we all have new clothes."
Pei Haonan took out the new clothes under the pillow and showed them off to Pei Ankang.
"Where did you get the new clothes?"
Pei Ankang asked.
The Pei family has many children. Every time grandma said she would buy them new clothes, she would be very embarrassed when she actually wanted to buy them because she had to buy four sets at a time, which she said would cost a lot of money.
So they don't wear new clothes during the New Year. Others wear new clothes and hats during the New Year, so they hope that the clothes given to them by others will be slightly newer.
There have never been any new clothes. Now that I have seen so many new clothes, I am surprised that they are all fake.
"Mom gave us new clothes."
"..." That woman made new clothes for his younger brothers and sisters? of
Pei Haonan dug out the largest set of clothes and handed them to Pei Ankang, "This is yours, brother."
"..." Pei Ankang's eyes were filled with disbelief. He actually still had his new clothes?
In addition to being unbelievable, Pei Ankang's eyes were full of doubts.
