"I'll go after feeding the donkey." Datong smiled.
Datong is not in a hurry. This second aunt is my biological sister. My mother is the eldest in the family, and the second aunt is the second. She has a daughter named Lulu, who is now about sixteen or seventeen years old. I have only heard of what she looks like.
I've never seen anything like this.
Because the second aunt's family lives far away, she hasn't moved around much in the past few years. Even during the holidays, she rarely exchanges greetings. Why did she suddenly come here today?
They are quite close by blood, but have not interacted with each other in life, so Datong is not in a hurry, and it cannot be said to be negligent. And because they are all female relatives, the words they can say are nothing more than polite words, and Datong is not very interested, so Niang and Tian Niu will accompany them first.
That’s it.
"How did Brother Datong react when he heard that Lulu was here?" Lamei asked.
"Shh, I haven't said anything yet." Haitang made a silent gesture.
"If Brother Datong knows what Lulu and his mother are here for, look at him..." Lamei couldn't help laughing when she thought of this.
"You see, your mother-in-law is so worried. 'Good things' come to her door and she can't even push them out..." Lamei continued to laugh.
"You girl, you do these ridiculous things all day long. Why don't you go to work? Look at how many paintings this mute girl draws in a day." After Haitang finished speaking, she came to the front yard and looked at a cart of cloth.
The source is correct, it comes from Zhengyang Buzhuang.
"Sister Haitang, don't you want to re-dye these cloths?" Lamei is used to seeing home-dyed cloths, and she really can't stand the fancy dog-gnawing. "I really don't know what Brother Datong is doing here?"
"We need to make good use of these cloths." Haitang thought for a while and already had a plan in mind.
Re-dyeing would require a large amount of charcoal washing, which would be a thankless task, and Haitang had no intention of doing so.
"Then how to use it?" Wintersweet was worried. Putting so many of them on the shelf would take up space. No one would buy them if they were sold.
"Go and cut them into pieces one foot at a time. Cut them all off," Haitang ordered.
"What, why? Then no one will want her anymore? Sister Haitang, please tell me quickly, or you will make me sad." Lamei was anxious.
"Remember what I said about using the cloth from Zhengyang Cloth Village as a foot wipe?" Haitang woke up with one sentence and cut it into one foot, which can be used as a cool foot wipe!
"Then let's give this footcloth to the neighbors?" Lamei said.
"Not just for the neighbors and folks, we will go to the city tomorrow to sell cloth, sell our cloth, and give away a foot of foot cloth for free. I want everyone in the county to use Zhengyang Cloth Shop's foot cloth." Haitang is confident.
.
"This is a great idea!" Lamei jumped up happily, finally finding a chance to take revenge! The cloth from our Haitang Dyeing Shop is used to make clothes, and the cloth from his Zhengyang Cloth Shop is used to wipe his feet. It's just right!
"We are going to get busy tonight. Just so that others won't know that we are from Zhengyang Buzhuang, we are going to write the words 'Zhengyang Buzhuang' on the cloth. You, dumb girl, and Tian Niu will put these words first."
Practice a few words." Haitang ordered.
Nowadays, everyone knows how to write Haitang Buzhuang, but not Zhengyang. Under Haitang's demonstration, it is very simple. Several girls learned it in a short time and can still write it accordingly.
Although Datong didn't know exactly what Haitang was busy with, he wanted to come over to help, but his mother unexpectedly called him over.
Datong's mother stared at Datong with a sad face. At this time, they were alone under the window sill outside the house.
"Mom, why did you lose your copper coins?" Datong asked with concern.
