Chapter 337 Making Winter Clothes

Ignoring the shopkeeper's exclamation, Lu Yaoyao took out a bundle of silk from her basket.

The snow-white silk is smooth and delicate, and upon closer inspection, it even has a rainbow-like sheen.

This is the silk spun by the seven-colored warm silkworms in her space. Wearing this silk has the effect of keeping you warm and cool in winter.

It would be perfect to make it into winter clothes.

"Shopkeeper, please use this to make me a few clothes! I need them done quickly, I'm in a hurry to wear them." Lu Yaoyao saw that it was getting late, and she still had to go back to catch the oxcart.

The shopkeeper was at a loss for words to describe her feelings. Everything the girl brought out was a treasure; she hadn't seen such things in years.

His curiosity about Lu Yaoyao's identity grew even stronger. "Alright! I'll finish making the clothes for you as soon as possible! If you wear silk clothes, you definitely won't be cold this winter!"

This is a good thing; she wants to make a cotton-padded coat for this girl herself.

"Miss, if you ever come across something like this in the future, could you bring it to our shop to sell?" Chu Niang asked, having taken her measurements.

This girl looks ugly, yet she can produce such fine things to make clothes, which means her identity is not so simple.

If you build a good relationship with this girl, her struggling little shop might just come back to life.

Lu Yaoyao nodded, "Okay!"

Anyway, she won't be living here for just a day or two, so it's good to make more connections.

She has plenty of ordinary fabrics in her space, so she doesn't need this much.

She sold several bolts of cloth to the shopkeeper for twenty taels of silver, but the shopkeeper refused to accept the money for making clothes for her.

Twenty taels of silver is quite a lot of money.

Lu Yaoyao arrived at the town gate with her empty basket on her back. The village chief was already waiting for her.

The other women arrived early as well, and their dissatisfaction was written all over their faces when they saw that Lu Yaoyao was the last to return.

Lu Yaoyao didn't bother with these people and went straight to the oxcart to sit down.

Once everyone had arrived, the village chief drove the oxcart back home.

The oxcart had just returned to the village when snowflakes began to fall.

Everyone else went home, leaving only the village chief and Lu Yaoyao.

The village chief took out a small bag of flour from his bundle. “Yaoyao! This is some coarse grain I bought in town today. Here, take half of it! You must be starving after leaving that family, right? Take this flour with you for now. If it’s not enough, come home and ask your aunt to get you some more.”

Looking at Lu Yaoyao in front of him, the village chief felt uneasy.

He was wounded on the battlefield and left the army to return to his hometown. However, his money was stolen on the way, so he had to walk home step by step.

Just when we were almost home, we ran out of food and almost starved to death.

Lu Yaoyao's father was passing by that grove of trees on his way to do business when he rescued him, gave him food and travel expenses so that he could go home.

He only found out after he got home that Lu Yaoyao's father was actually Master Lu from their Wangjia Village.

The Lu family's ancestors were from elsewhere, and their ancestral home was in Wangjia Village. Later, the Lu family prospered, so they moved to the town to live.

The village chief looked at Lu Yaoyao now. He had visited the Lu family when she was born. She was a beautiful little fairy when she was a child.

How did I end up like this after growing up?
He was puzzled.

Later, the child married Wang Hechuan. He thought Wang Hechuan was a good person and that if he was willing to marry Yaoyao, he would treat her well.

I never expected that Wang Hechuan was such an ingrate.

It is a year of famine, and the people's crops have all yielded less. His family's crops are no exception. After paying the taxes, there is not enough grain left for his entire family to eat.

Fortunately, his eldest son was quite capable; he worked as a chef in a restaurant in town and was able to earn some money to supplement the family income.

His leg is still lame, and his abilities are limited. All he can do is prevent Master Lu's only daughter from starving to death.

Lu Yaoyao pushed the flour back, "Uncle Village Chief, I actually have food! I'm not stupid enough to hand over everything to the Wang family. I'm living in the old house now and I have food to eat, so you don't need to worry."

After Lu Yaoyao finished speaking, she carried her basket and left, leaving the village chief money for a ride in an oxcart.

Watching the departing figure, the village chief shook his head helplessly and drove his oxcart home. Since Yaoyao could say that, there must still be food, so he wasn't worried.

The snow fell even harder, with large, fluffy snowflakes drifting down, obscuring the distant scenery.

The old house was still a short walk from the village entrance, about the distance of an incense stick's burning, and Lu Yaoyao walked at a leisurely pace.

"Hmm? Someone's here?" Lu Yaoyao's ears twitched as she heard faint breathing.

I didn't want to save them, but after thinking about it, I went back.

A person was lying in the ditch by the roadside, covered in blood, and looked like he was barely breathing.

"The injury is quite serious." Lu Yaoyao carried the person to the ditch, picked them up, and walked away with the basket in her hand.

Her body was very weak, but after taking the pill last night, she has regained her strength.

In addition, she has broken through a layer of the Five Elements Technique seal to temper her body, so she can now carry someone on her back.

Back at the old house, they found a spare room and took out a silk quilt from their storage space to lay it out before placing the injured person on the bed.

"He's actually a eunuch." Lu Yaoyao took his pulse and found that he was a very young man who had been castrated.

No wonder she has a feminine air about her.

The man's body was covered in wounds from various weapons, the most fatal of which was the wound to his heart.

He almost severed his heart meridian.

"You're lucky you met me; even a miracle doctor couldn't save you with your injuries."

Lu Yaoyao took out some spiritual spring water for him to drink, then used the spring water to clean his wounds, and finally crushed the pills and applied them to the wounds.

Finally, feed him a Resurrection Pill.

His wounds have healed and his pulse has stabilized.

Lu Yaoyao let him fall asleep and then went to clean the old house.

Looking at the messy old house, Lu Yaoyao resignedly began to clean.

We'll temporarily clear out a courtyard for them to live in, and then we'll clean up the rest of the place gradually.

I was initially feeling a bit cold because I was wearing thin clothes, but after cleaning, I was sweating profusely.

The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow.

Lu Yaoyao took out ingredients from her spatial storage and prepared to make a hot pot.

In the past, when she wanted to eat hot pot, Sha Hun and the others always said that she ate too much heavy food, which was bad for her health, so they rarely let her eat it.

Now that they're all gone, it's a perfect opportunity to eat to our hearts' content.

“My husbands used to cook for me, and I just had to eat. Now I have to cook for myself.”

The ingredients in the space are very fresh, with a natural, pleasant aroma.

The hot pot broth is already prepared; just put it in a pot, add water, bring it to a boil, and you can start cooking hot pot.

"Mmm! Delicious." After taking a bite of the tender slice of meat, the aroma lingered on her lips and teeth.

In the dead of winter, watching the snow and eating hot pot is one of life's greatest pleasures.

It's a pity she can't drink alcohol. Wouldn't it be wonderful if she could have some fine wine with her?

Lu Yaoyao placed fire crystals in the room, so there was no need to light a fire for warmth, and the room was not cold at all.

Looking out the window, the distant mountain range, resembling a giant beast lying still, was not so clearly visible in the hazy snowy scene.

As the snowflakes fell heavier and heavier, the distant mountains turned white as well.

It looks like the snow isn't going to stop today.
