Xu Muzhen looked at the man who had been sitting silently since he came back.

Didn't you immediately ask him what happened?

I just continued to sew the clothes in my hands and put the finishing touches on it.

The two sat quietly, one of them was sewing clothes with flying hands, and the other looked at each other with tenderness.

After a while, the last stitch in Xu Muzhen's hand was completed.

She shook her clothes and said to Gu Huaijin with great satisfaction, "Mr., come and try on this dress!"

"Okay!" Gu Huaijin stood under the kang very cooperatively, took off his coat and put on his clothes with his arms dazed.

He brushed his clothes with his hands and turned them left and right.

She was very satisfied and praised: "My lady's workmanship is excellent, this dress is really well made."

The smile on Xu Muzhen's face became even stronger when she heard this. She also felt that this dress really fit her.

Her husband-in-law looks even more handsome and stylish when he puts on this dress!

Gu Huaijin couldn't put it down and touched these clothes. After showing them off for a while, she took them off.

She said with heartache, "This dress must be kept well. This is the first new dress my wife has made for me. It is very memorable."

Xu Mu smiled lightly and cursed inwardly, "You fool!"

She will have many opportunities after making clothes, and this person still wants to save the clothes.

The clothes are made for him to wear, not for storage.

She said in a helpless and funny tone, "Just wear it, I will make it for you in the future."

When Gu Huaijin heard this, his eyebrows suddenly lit up and he said, "Really?"

"Well, it's true! More true than pearls!"

As soon as Xu Muzhen finished speaking, she heard another expression of disapproval from Gu Huaijin.

He said with some distress, "Forget it, making clothes is too nerve-wracking. Madam, in the future you should buy us ready-made clothes or let others make them."

Although Xu Muzhen thought what he said was reasonable, she still decided to learn how to make clothes.

After all, my husband's intimate clothes cannot be left in the hands of others.

Xu Muchian reached out and hugged Gu Huaijin's waist, leaned into his arms, and patted his back gently with her hands in a comforting manner.

Gu Huaijin knew that his wife had noticed her thoughts, so she no longer hesitated and spoke out what was on her mind.

He told the story of how his brother wanted to work with Yan Baihu.

He also said that if he didn't pay back the five hundred taels of silver he owed, he was afraid it would affect his two brothers.

When Xu Muzhen heard this, he immediately said: "Then return it to them. Anyway, at first I just wanted to use this IOU to teach that person a lesson."

"Now that I've learned a lesson, I've said that in my heart, so just give it to her if she wants!"

What Xu Maqian was thinking was that the five hundred taels of IOUs should not affect the work of Gu Huaijin's two brothers.

Otherwise, they may complain in the future.

Because of these five hundred taels, it would be bad if there was a rift between the brothers.

Hearing what Xu Muzhen said, Gu Huaijin hugged her tighter and said, "Thank you, madam!"

He knew his wife's thoughts, and he could better understand the compromises she made to others because of her brother.

She fiercely defended her family's face, but instead asked others to compensate her by 500 taels.

Now, in just a few days, he had made a compromise just because of a few words.

This kind of behavior severely hurts the lady's face.

Thinking of this, Gu Huaijin felt deeply that she really had to get out!

Xu Maqian seemed to know what he was thinking, so she comforted him softly: "It's okay, really!"

That night, Gu Huaijin gave the IOU to her cousin.

It was just because of this that Gu Huaijin felt unhappy, so he left without saying anything when he handed over the IOU.

Gu Huairui and his wife stood at the door, looking at Gu Huaijin walking away, feeling unhappy.

"What is he doing now..." Lin Lu asked with a frown.

"It's just pride!" Gu Huairui shook his head indifferently, then looked at the IOU in his hand with a hint of ridicule on his lips.

Early the next morning, Gu Huaijin went to town!

His important purpose this time was to quickly find a mother-in-law who could take care of the family.

Fortunately, Huangtian paid off and met a suitable person as soon as he arrived in the town.

He bought out the person's deed and took the mother-in-law home.

Xu Maqian looked at the somewhat reserved woman standing in the room, then turned to look at Gu Huaijin.

His eyes asked him where he bought this person from?

Gu Huaijin looked at the woman seriously and said sternly: "Tell me about your situation!"

The woman was startled by Gu Huaijin's serious voice, and tremblingly spoke about her life experience.

The woman's surname is Qiu, she is in her forties this year, and she is from the west district of Qianhusuo.

Because she had been married for many years and had no children, her husband's family married another woman a few months ago, so she was divorced and returned to her parents' family.

The reason why she sold herself was that her elderly mother died of illness, and the remaining houses and fields in her family were occupied by her tribe and they were kicked out.

One person cannot afford to be buried, so he has to sell his body to bury his mother!

When Gu Huaijin met her, the woman had been in the town for several days, but no one paid any attention to her.

Here, except for some people whose families have a lot of money, few people can afford to serve their mother-in-law.

So the appearance of Gu Huaijin undoubtedly gave her a way out.

Xu Maqian nodded as he listened to her life experience, and he had a general understanding of her situation.

The woman has a round face, a medium build, and wears shabby clothes.

But even though her clothes are old, it can still be seen that she is a neat and hard-working person.

Then he said: "I will call you Mother Qiu from now on! You don't have to be too formal. When you come to my house, you will be treated as a family member."

When Qiu's mother heard what Xu Maqian said, a smile appeared on her face, as if she was relieved.

Fortunately, fortunately, she was lucky enough to meet a gentle family.

Just when he was about to speak, he saw Gu Huaijin's very cold face.

Mother Qiu was so frightened that her heart trembled, and she whispered: "I will definitely take good care of my wife and the young masters from now on."

After saying that, he lowered his head and thought to himself, the master of this family looks really serious and scary!

Madam looks very kind and easy to get along with!

It was Mother Qiu who settled in the Gu family.

Not to mention, Gu Huaijin's vision was very good this time.

Mother Qiu is very capable and does a good job in washing and washing the house.

Seeing this, Xu Maqian nodded repeatedly with great satisfaction.

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Today Xu Muzhen received a truck full of supplies.

Her parents, who were far away in Suzhou, found someone to transport them here.

There were a large bag full of large and small clothes, furs, and all kinds of commonly used things. They were very well prepared.

Xu Maqian picked up a package and found that there were more than a dozen pairs of children's shoes inside.

She had been very well-equipped since she was a child. She picked up a pair of small shoes and looked at the stitches on them carefully. The stitches were so fine that she knew at a glance that they were made by her mother Qian herself.

She is truly the beloved son of her parents. Her mother, Qian, knew that Xu Muxian could not do needlework.
