The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm
Chapter 103: Grabbing the Calligraphy Copybook
Niu Li didn't want to make his mother work hard, so although he was reluctant, he still poured a glass of water for his aunt, and then sat in his previous position to continue learning to write.
Niu Meiyu did not sit down. She took a look at the cup and found it was quite clean. There was not even a trace of tea leaves in it.
As a person who usually wouldn't drink water without tea leaves, he didn't care about anything else. He just picked up the cup and gulped down the water. He took a long breath before he could look around.
I looked down from the direction where the cup was placed and was shocked to find that the tables and chairs were made of elm wood after not seeing them for a few days. This style might not have been custom-made by Carpenter Sun.
When I got married, there were no such good tables and chairs. My mother-in-law said that there was a pretty good set at home, so I could use it for now and replace it with new ones when they broke.
I had been to the town for several days in a row and saw a set similar to this one, but my mother-in-law stopped me from buying it. Thinking about the not-so-old set of tables and chairs in my house, I felt uncomfortable, as I might use them until my mother-in-law died.
To outsiders, that was considered pretty good furniture, but Meiyu felt that it was a tool for her mother-in-law to remind her that she was the one in charge of the household.
I touched the table top, which was as smooth as a baby's skin. It was exactly what I wanted. I didn't know when I could change to a set that I liked. I wanted to take an axe and chop the one at home into firewood.
His eyes were full of love for this set of tables and chairs, and he was muttering in his heart that it would cost a lot of money.
Could it be that they made a lot of money from selling tofu? They suddenly felt very uncomfortable, but then they changed their minds and realized that they would have to pay it back anyway, and this thing would soon not belong to them, so they felt a little better.
Looking outside the house, the adobe bricks in the yard were built into several walls, and it would take some time to turn them into a real house.
It is already very good that my third brother's family can live in a house made of adobe, which is not even a bit different from the blue brick and adobe house we have at home.
Meiyu felt very superior in this regard, and suddenly felt that she was superior to others. The jealousy that was aroused when she entered the room just now disappeared.
I pulled out the chair and sat on it. It was very comfortable, but I started to feel uncomfortable again. I thought that such a chair should be sat on by myself. It was good enough for my third brother and sister-in-law to sit on a bench. They deserved it.
I can't help but sigh that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. It won't be long before the tables and chairs in my house will be sold to pay off the debts.
Then they will have to sleep on the kang to eat, I don’t know how uncomfortable that will be.
I'd better express my sympathy, otherwise it would seem so inhumane.
The people in the village definitely don't have the money to buy it, so no one will buy it and it will probably be sold at a low price. If I buy it then, not only will I spend less money, but it will also be almost 100% new. It's really a good deal.
Meiyu almost laughed out loud when she thought about this, and the corners of her mouth began to curl up. She suddenly reacted and forced herself to suppress it, and her mouth twitched a few times.
When I looked up, I saw Niu Li on my right gesturing at something on the table, staring straight at a notebook on the table. I didn't know what he was doing, maybe he was reading a book.
A little brat who has never been to school for a day but can still read books and act pretentiously in front of me. I hate this kind of person the most.
My own son can't even read, so it's even more impossible for him to learn any words. I can't just let him be like this. If I don't educate him when he is young, what will happen when he grows up?
Ignoring the shocked looks of the other two, Mei Yu snatched the book that Niu Li was reading. She couldn't read a single word and even held the book upside down.
What a mess it is. Just looking at it gives me a headache. I flipped through a few pages and said, "Don't pretend to be knowledgeable in front of me. I don't know my third brother well enough. A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes."
"Why don't you go to the fields more often and see how your father works. Learn more. It will be of great use to you in the future. Don't just look at these things that are useless to you."
"Without a master to teach you, if you learn some unconventional things, don't go astray."
As she said this, she was about to throw the book away, but fortunately Niu Li was quick-witted and caught the book in his arms first, preventing her aunt from succeeding.
Yan Zi was unhappy. Why did she speak like that about her own son and even wanted to snatch away his favorite calligraphy copybook? How could there be such an aunt?
Why should farmers work on the land all their lives? Don’t forget that she was also a farmer and she is still a farmer now.
He just has some money, and now he is not necessarily richer than my family. I don't know why he holds his neck high and looks down on others. How noble he is.
She held her belly and wanted to get up from the ground, wanting to have a good talk with her, but her son held her back. Seeing Niu Li shaking his head, she had to suppress her anger.
Niu Meiyu is a person who does not know the seriousness of the matter. If she were to start a fight accidentally, she would be the one who would suffer. Fortunately, the calligraphy that Niu Li liked was not damaged, otherwise she would definitely be asked to pay for it.
Yan Zi believed that Niu Li could handle it, so she ignored Mei Yu and sat back on the kang.
Niu Li quickly took the calligraphy copy outside the house and hid it to prevent his aunt from finding it. Although he was young, he was able to see through other people's thoughts.
"Aunt, I was just writing for fun. I'm not learning to read. But you're right. I will help Dad with the work."
When Meiyu heard Niu Li's words, she felt so happy. This is how it should be. It would be best if everyone followed her wishes.
Leaning back in my chair, I thought about how beautiful it would be if I could move this set of tables and chairs back home.
Yan Zi couldn't bear to watch it anymore and cleared her throat. "Aunt, what brings you here today?"
Mei Yu then remembered what she was here for today.
I had specially changed into new clothes and didn't choose the more expensive ones. I thought this dress would definitely make my sisters-in-law envious, but in the end, it was outdone by Yan Zi's clothes.
Although the materials are similar, the other person's advantage lies in ingenuity and tailoring. I must ask which tailor made it so that I can make an exactly the same one for myself.
I couldn't compare to what I had on me, so I had several pieces of fabric in my bag. I took them out to let them open their eyes. It's impossible for a person to live his whole life without seeing some good things. I could consider myself doing a good deed.
He took the bundle, walked to the kang, and opened it in twos and threes, revealing the material inside. "Third sister-in-law, Niu Li, come and take a look. This is my new one. I just bought it from town. Does it look good?"
His brows knitted slightly, and a distressed expression appeared on his face, "These are not cheap. One piece of material cost me two taels of silver."
Yan Zi and Niu Li had indeed never seen such beautiful materials, but Niu Li had no interest in these things. He just wanted his aunt to leave quickly so that he could continue studying.
Yan Zi has done a lot of sewing work and can be considered an expert on fabrics. At first glance, these materials look very nice, with good patterns and colors, but the quality is a little hard to describe.
It is understandable that others pay attention to the materials and patterns, but Yanzi pays more attention to details and quality.
