Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent!-Chapter 59 - Spoiling You_1

Zhulan had to stifle her laughter several times, her lips tugging into a smile, as she observed the women’s table where Lady Li couldn’t care less about the men’s business and was intent on getting more meat for her sons and daughters.

Lady Zhao, however, sneaked a few glances, eating meat like a thief, each time sneaking a peek at Zhulan.

Zhulan pretended not to notice, and Lady Zhao looked thoroughly satisfied, clearly enjoying herself!

Zhulan, “…..”

She should get a good look at her grandsons and granddaughters—to cleanse her eyes!

At dinner, whether it was the sulky eldest son or Zhou Laosan grinding his teeth inwardly, no one let their mood interfere with their meal.

They all relished the meat from the large hen!

After supper, Zhulan warmed some water to check on Rongchuan, who had broken into a sweat.

She wrung out a towel to clean him off, covered him with the blanket again, and then returned to the main room.

Zhou Shuren was discussing Rongchuan with his eldest and second sons when Zhulan, alone in the room, took out some fabric and began cutting it, planning to make clothes for Rongchuan.

Zhulan was quite confident.

She truly had a gift for needlework and, with her memory, making clothes was not a problem.

Though she had discovered her hidden “Skills,” she had no intention of delving deeper into learning.

It was enough to know how to make clothes, as embroidery was too draining on the eyes.

She needed to take good care of them—after all, there were no reading glasses in ancient times, and eyes were very important.

Zhou Shuren came back late, and Zhulan had already finished making the pants and was about to start on the shirt.

“Why are you back so late?”

Zhou Shuren, while taking off his shoes, replied, “I was watching Laosan and Laosan’s reading, then I went to check on Rongchuan.

Are those for Rongchuan?”

Zhulan nodded.

“The child’s clothes are practically in tatters.

They hardly keep him warm, and they’re not even decent anymore.

He’ll have nothing to wear when he gets up tomorrow, so I must finish them tonight.”

Zhou Shuren wasn’t too happy.

It was the first time Zhulan made outerwear in the ancient times, and it wasn’t for him.

Hmph, she hadn’t even made underwear for him.

“You’ll need several presentable outfits for Jiangnan.

After all, ‘clothes make the man just as a saddle makes the horse.’ You can’t skimp on this.”

Zhulan cut off the thread with her teeth.

“Even if you didn’t say it, I know that.

You have to dress well to impress people, er, to be respected.”

Zhou Shuren laughed.

“That’s the spirit.

Buy ready-made outer garments.

The underwear is up to you.”

Zhulan, “…..Fine.”

Underwear, indeed.

The original body’s undergarments were a sorry tale.

After she learned needlework, she made two sets of underwear and pajamas for herself, feeling a bit guilty about it.

She hadn’t made any for Zhou Shuren, and even being buddies, it was a bit awkward.

Now her mind was full of thoughts on things like underpants!

Yet, indeed, such things really should be made by a wife!

Zhou Shuren hadn’t misread the blush on Zhulan’s face, and instantly he felt much better.

The next morning, Rongchuan’s fever had broken, but being weak, he was bound to relapse.

Zhulan gave him the clothes and pants she had made, which weren’t very thick.

He should wear them inside the house first, and when they bought cotton, she would make him warmer clothing.

Today, Zhou Shuren and Zhulan planned to go to the county to get clothes for him and some household items.

A round trip would take just one morning, with Zhou Er keeping an eye on the house.

Just as they were ready to leave, they were stopped by Wang Laosan who came with Wang Ru, followed by two large jars.

Wang Laosan seemed anxious.

“Uncle, you’re going out?”

Zhou Shuren nodded.

“Yes.”

Wang Laosan smiled sheepishly.

“I was actually hoping to borrow your ox cart.

Could you possibly give us a lift to the county?”

Zhulan was not pleased.

Last time, Wang Laosan said he would make amends later, but he never showed up again.

It was one thing for her to refuse, but another for him to not keep his promise.

It showed that Wang Laosan wasn’t a man of his word.

Today he was clearly just looking to take advantage of their lack of money to rent an ox cart by seeking a favor from them.

Zhulan almost laughed out loud, her smile not quite reaching her eyes.

“Laosi, I thought you were here to make amends.

I didn’t expect that wasn’t the case!”

Why should she let him unabashedly borrow their ox cart without any reserve?

She wouldn’t indulge him!
