Chapter 953
Xi Feng said with a big belly, "Are you sure I can still embroider a pair of tent curtains?"
Her childbirth period was at the end of October. Before that, not to mention embroidering a curtain, it was difficult to even embroider a handkerchief. She felt sleepy from time to time without seeing her.
Chu Ningqin looked disappointed, "That's right, I actually forgot that you were particularly sleepy after getting pregnant with a little girl... Auntie Four, then forget it. In fact, I have embroidered a pair of curtains myself, but my embroidery skills are not good. Why don't I like it very much? I just thought to ask you to embroider a picture for me. Forget it, I asked the embroiderer of the mansion to embroider it."
The Chu family raised a few Xiuniangs, who specially embroidered clothes, quilts, tents and curtains for the wives and ladies.
Most of the dowry supplies for the ladies in the mansion to get married were embroidered by the embroiderers, and only the wedding dresses were embroidered by the ladies themselves.
Xi Feng did not miss the disappointment in her eyes. She felt sorry for the little girl and said, "I brought back a snow-white fox fur and a black bear fur in the capital. I originally planned to give it to my cousin and my cousin-law to wear a fox fur cloak. Now I will give you some makeup."
"Is the fox fur? It's very expensive?" A fox fur costs seven or eight hundred taels of silver, and two costs nearly two thousand taels of silver. This is not done. If the cloak is made, two fox fur cloaks will be sold in Hangzhou City for more than three thousand taels of silver. Isn't this a lot of makeup added?
"Don't worry, no matter how expensive it is, I'll give it to you, and I'll be willing to give it to you."
"Thank you, Aunt Four."
The loss on the little girl's face was swept away, and she received a lot of joy.
Afterwards, Chu Ningqin told Xi Feng a lot of rumors he heard.
First of all, it’s Xi Lan’s business.
"This year, I was pregnant again, just March. Unfortunately, the child had a miscarriage after only one month of his health, and he was injured. He could never get pregnant again. You said, can a woman be pregnant, and her husband's family still value it?"
"The new wife of the eldest young master of the Liu family is higher from the Liu family. Within half a month after entering the house, he took away the housekeeper's power. Now Xi Lan has lost all her status in the Liu family, and is also embarrassed in the Liu family. Her stepson is older than her and she wants to call her "Mama."
Xi Lan has been like that in her life.
She married an old man in her forties, and her stepson was older than her. What was even more terrible was that she would never have her own children in her life.
A young woman who can’t have children and is despised by her husband’s family can live a better life in her husband’s family?
"Aunt Four, actually, I heard of one thing." Chu Ningqin hesitated for a moment, and finally, she still felt that she should have told Xi Feng about that.
She said, "Last twelfth lunar month, I overheard someone saying that Xi Yue was dead, but was still cold and starved to death. It seemed that her husband's family would not give her food. In winter, she was wearing a shabby single dress... When she found out, the body was hard."
Xi Feng widened his eyes in shock, "Is this news true?"
"It's true. After I heard about it, I sent someone to inquire. It's true."
In fact, after hearing the news she asked about, she felt sympathy for Xi Yue. However, the people from the Xi family’s big house used to be bad for Xi Feng’s family, and for this reason, she had a bad impression of the Xi family’s big house.
For this reason, even if I sympathize with Xi Yue, I will not do anything.
Of course, it would be too late to do anything, and Xi Yueren was dead.
