Chapter 13: Making Clothes

Only ten minutes had passed in the outside world, and the water in the pot on the stove was already boiling. Mo Ruyue put out the fire and scooped the hot water into a wooden bucket. After it cooled down in the morning, she could use it to water the ground.

She remembered reading an article that said cooled boiled water could be used to water the land and reduce the number of yellow leaves and fallen leaves. Moreover, after the water boiled, the structural order of the water molecules would change, which was very similar to the internal structure of plants and flowers, so that plants flowers could grow better.

However, the oxygen content in the cooled boiled water was very low. If it was used continuously, the crops would not be able to breathe. It was better to use it alternately with natural water for better results.

However, Mo Ruyue didn’t plan to use this method when farming. After all, the cost of boiling water was too high, and it really wasn’t worth it.

When she returned to the house, the babies were already fast asleep. Even Da Bao, who had always been the most vigilant, was snoring lightly. It seemed that he was really tired today.

Mo Ruyue had just laid down when Tang Tang, who was sleeping beside her, suddenly turned over. Her little nose twitched a few times, and she snuggled into Mo Ruyue’s arms.

She was like a small cub, looking for a comfortable position in Mo Ruyue’s arms. She quickly curled herself into a ball, mumbled a few times, and fell asleep again.

Mo Ruyue lay stiffly. She couldn’t even fall asleep if there was someone three feet next to her, let alone someone who would jump into her arms. She didn’t throw Tang Tang away at the time because she had developed a habit and strong control over her body over the past few days.

Perhaps it was because Tang Tang wasn’t aggressive. Her body was small, soft, and even had a faint milky smell. This made Mo Ruyue gradually relax her body.

In order not to wake Tang Tang up, Mo Ruyue slowly laid down and adjusted the position of her arm. That small body scurried deeper into her side with her movements. That kind of pure trust made Mo Ruyue’s heart soften.

Her eyelids gradually became heavy, and the rising sleepiness took over Mo Ruyue’s mind. Before she fell asleep, she didn’t forget to use her hand to gently pat Tang Tang’s back.

The next morning, Mo Ruyue had just gotten up and entered the kitchen when she saw Da Bao coming to the kitchen door with a few sleepy little turnips.

“Mother, I’ll help you start a fire.”

Er Bao walked over while rubbing his eyes. He squatted beside the stove to get the flint.

“Take your younger brothers and sister to wash up first. Don’t be in a hurry to start a fire.”

Mo Ruyue stopped Er Bao and swiftly started a fire.

After the few babies finished washing up, they were sent back to fold their blankets by Mo Ruyue. By the time they finished cleaning up and came back, breakfast was already on the table.

The dishes were the rabbit meat and chicken mushroom stew that they hadn’t finished last night. The rice was the egg-fried rice that had been fried last night. It had been kept in the refrigerator by Mo Ruyue. Just now, she had taken it out and heated it in the microwave before bringing it to the table.

“Hurry up and eat. There are a lot of things to do today.”

Mo Ruyue said concisely and took the lead in picking up the bowl and chopsticks.

“Mother, what are we doing today?”

Si Bao had just picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks. When he was talking to Mo Ruyue, he was distracted, and the meat fell on the table. He immediately grabbed the meat with his hands, feeling distressed.

“Stupid! Mother said yesterday that the next day we would dig out our family’s land. If we don’t eat our fill, how can we have the strength to work?”

San Bao was missing a front tooth, so his pronunciation was much more muffled. One sentence from him made him speak so carelessly that the few babies all giggled.

“Don’t make a fuss. Eat well. You still have work to do after you’re done.”

Da Bao glanced at Mo Ruyue and immediately chided him like an elder brother.

If that woman were to speak, her appearance and voice would be cold, so she should not scare Tang Tang.

Mo Ruyue pretended not to see Da Bao’s eyes, but in her heart, she had already seen through his little thoughts.

It turned out that in addition to directly protecting his younger siblings, he could also secretly have feelings for her.

After being reprimanded by Da Bao, the little babies did not dare to make a fuss anymore. They quickly finished their meal and took the initiative to help clean up the dishes.

Mo Ruyue washed her hands and arranged a job for Da Bao. “Da Bao, go next door and invite Aunt Liu over. I have something to ask her for help.”

“Do you want her to help you make clothes? We should be the ones sending the fabric over. That’s more polite.” Da Bao did not move. He raised his eyebrows and retorted.

“No, there’s something else. When we send her back later, we’ll just send the fabric over.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t know where she got the patience to explain this to him. Perhaps it was because she had hugged Tang Tang too comfortably last night, and her heart was still soft, so she didn’t mind Da Bao’s provocative attitude.

However, if he continued to talk to her with this attitude, she could not guarantee that she would be as easy to talk to as she was now.

Fortunately, Da Bao seemed to have understood the warning in her eyes. This time, he did not say anything and turned to leave.

Soon, there was the sound of footsteps outside the courtyard. Da Bao, who had left and returned, came in with his neighbor, Aunt Liu.

“I heard you were looking for me?”

As soon as Aunt Liu entered the door, she saw a few babies busily cleaning up in the kitchen. She thought that Mo Ruyue’s laziness was acting up again, and a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes.

As expected, her previous change was just an act.

Indeed, a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit.

“It’s like this, Aunt Liu. I invited you here for two things. Let’s talk inside.”

It wasn’t that Mo Ruyue didn’t see the disdain in Aunt Liu’s eyes. She knew that she had misunderstood again, but the original owner was notorious for her misdeeds. It wasn’t easy to change this impression in a short time, so she could only take it slowly.

Aunt Liu followed Mo Ruyue into the house. The first thing she saw was a pile of cloth fabrics on the kang. She immediately understood why Mo Ruyue had asked her to come. It turned out that Mo Ruyue wanted to make clothes for her.

Looking at the colorful fabrics and even the most comfortable chiffon for summer wear, there were at least a dozen pieces. If she were to make clothes for herself, would she be able to wear all of them?

“Aunt Liu, I bought some cloth yesterday and wanted to make some clothes for the children. They are all at a growing age, so I’m afraid they won’t be able to wear the same size for more than a few days. I think you are experienced, so you can make two pieces for them in advance.”

As soon as Mo Ruyue opened her mouth, Aunt Liu was stunned. She didn’t expect that so much fabric was actually to make clothes for the children. Could it be that this woman had really changed?

“You… aren’t you going to make clothes for yourself?” Aunt Liu asked tentatively.

“Of course, I’m going to make them. Just two summer clothes will do. I still have the rest of the fabric. It’s enough.”

Mo Ruyue’s answer shocked Aunt Liu again. Before, she had wanted to take advantage of everything in the world. She wouldn’t even let others eat the meat residue on her plate. How could she be willing to use so much cloth to make clothes for others?

“By the way, I’ll call the babies over later. I’ll have to trouble you to take their measurements. I’ll leave everything to you after that.”

Mo Ruyue continued. She didn’t look like she was faking it, as if what she had just said was true.
