Chapter 395 Are you scared?
There is a warehouse in the backyard which Xiuying uses to store sundries. Only Xiuying and Taohua have the key. There is some rice and daily necessities in it.
Every time Xiuying needed to buy something from the system, she would take Taohua and Shiliu to the warehouse and then secretly buy it from the mall. Only the mother and daughter had the key.
No one knew what was inside, but with the protection of the warehouse, no one would suspect anything when the things in the space were taken out.
Xiuying slowly stood up, glanced at Wang Daya and Dongmei, and said calmly, "You two should call everyone to the yard in half an hour to get the cloth and cotton."
After saying that, she turned around and left the main room with Taohua and Shiliu, heading towards the private storeroom in the backyard.
When they arrived at the private warehouse, Xiuying looked solemn. Her two daughters understood what she meant. Taohua stood at the door smartly, looking outside the house vigilantly, keeping watch for Xiuying, while Shiliu stood by the window, paying attention to the movements around her.
Xiuying took a deep breath, opened the system store, and quickly began shopping. Without hesitation, she bought 55 pieces of coarse cotton and 55 pieces of fine cotton, totaling 1100 kilograms of cotton.
If we make two sets of clothes per person with this amount of cloth and cotton, we will definitely not use up all of it. The remaining cloth and cotton can also be used to make hats, coats, and cotton shoes.
"Mom, these fabrics are so good. Look at the texture, so smooth and delicate. And the cotton is so white and soft, it feels so comfortable to touch."
Taohua couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, her eyes full of surprise, "It's worthy of being a treasure given by the gods, the things inside are really good."
Xiuying said seriously, "You must keep this secret for me. You must not let it out, or else it will bring disaster."
"Don't worry, Mom, we know." Shi Liu nodded solemnly and assured.
"Okay, then let's move these things out." Xiuying said, and took the lead in moving a bundle of cloth.
The private warehouse had always been a forbidden area that Xiuying did not allow anyone to enter, and it was usually heavily guarded. After the mother and daughter worked together to move the cloth and cotton out of the private warehouse, Xiuying called a few strong servants and asked them to carefully carry these things to the front yard.
By this time, the front yard was already filled with all of Xiuying's servants, including their families. Men, women, young and old, a bustling crowd, all looked toward the storehouse with anticipation, whispering and speculating about what surprises the mistress would bring them this time.
"Everyone has worked hard during this period. The weather is getting colder. Each person will receive two pieces of cloth and 20 kilograms of cotton. You can take them home and use them as winter clothes." Xiuying stood in a higher position in the yard and spoke in a loud and clear voice, her eyes sweeping over everyone present.
Peach blossoms and pomegranates stood gracefully on either side, their faces also filled with kind expressions. Behind the mother and daughters were piles of cloth and cotton, colorful fabrics and snow-white cotton that was fluffy and soft.
"Thank you, Madam! It is our blessing to follow you!" Everyone shouted in unison, their voices full of gratitude.
"Madam, you are our benefactor!" An elderly servant's voice trembled with emotion. He took a step forward and bowed deeply. "If it weren't for your shelter and care, I don't know how we would survive in this difficult world."
"Yes, Madam, you are so kind and generous. We have no way to repay you!" A young woman holding a child said, "With Madam around, our lives have hope."
Xiuying smiled and waved her hand, gently signaling everyone to calm down. She said, "Everyone, calm down. Once we finish harvesting the sweet potatoes, we'll start building the house. I still say the same thing. As long as you are loyal and focus on this, I will never treat you unfairly."
Then, Xiuying turned to Shiliu and Taohua and said, "You two, distribute these things to everyone." After that, Xiuying turned and walked towards the guest room.
Cuihua has been awake for two days. During these two days, her mental state has become much more normal than before, and her face has gradually regained color.
Aunt Wu had just finished taking Cuihua's pulse and gently put her wrist down. She said with a look of relief, "Cuihua, you're recovering so quickly, all thanks to Xiuying!"
Xiuying is truly a miracle doctor, she can even cure insanity so quickly.
Aunt Wu didn't say anything more, but her expression seemed to be hesitant, as if she was hiding many unexpressed thoughts.
"Cuihua, you look good today." Xiuying walked in with a smile on her face and brisk steps.
Cuihua heard the voice and was about to stand up to greet her, but Xiuying strode forward and held her down, saying quickly, "Lie down and don't move. You're still weak. I'll ask Dongmei to stew an old hen for you to nourish you."
Cuihua pursed her lips, tears welling up in her eyes, and she said with a choked voice, "Thank you, Aunt Xiuying."
"Why thank me? Aren't we still a family?" Xiuying looked at Cuihua tenderly and continued, "By the way, what are you planning to do from now on? Are you going to divorce Guangzong?"
When Cuihua heard this, she immediately became hesitant and couldn't speak for a long time: "I... I..."
Cuihua's eyes were evasive, and her hands were tightly clutching a corner of the quilt, looking extremely conflicted and helpless.
Xiuying patted Cuihua's hand gently and comforted her, "Just tell us what you have to say. Don't keep it in your heart. That's how we know how to help you."
Aunt Wu and Xiuying looked at each other, and there was deep worry in each other's eyes.
Aunt Wu frowned and whispered, "Looking at Cuihua like this, I'm afraid she's afraid of the Zhao family. Before, when she wasn't sober, she could go crazy and do whatever she wanted. Now that she's sober, she's afraid instead."
Xiuying nodded slightly and softly agreed, "Yes, this is difficult. With this fear in her heart, how can she live the rest of her life?"
Cuihua lowered her head and whispered, "I haven't thought about getting a divorce. Since I've married into the Zhao family, I'll stay there forever. Daddy told me to stay in Futian Village and that he'll come find me there after he finishes his business."
Cuihua's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but her eyes showed determination. She would never leave Futian Village.
Aunt Wu looked concerned and kindly advised, "My daughter, you can't ruin your life just because of this! You still have a long time to live! The Zhao family is not a pushover. Think about how they treated you before.
If you go back, they will definitely not let you go. Guangzong's hand is already broken, and he might take his anger out on you in the future, so you must think carefully!"
Xiuying also said, "Cuihua, Guangzong is not a good match. Everyone has seen his daily behavior. You are such a good girl, you shouldn't be wasted by him. If you want a divorce, I will definitely help you and I will never break my promise."
