Chapter 52: Tense and Frightened All the Way
The next morning, Shen Meng packed two baskets of things. Today, she was taking her children back to her parents’ home. It had been half a month, and both Wang Guizhi and Shen Fugui had not visited again, which was very unusual. According to the previous pattern, they should have visited twice during this period.
One more day, and the children would start school. After that, she would have to wait for their vacation time if she wanted to visit.
"Mom, is third aunt coming over to make clothes today?" Mingyang held a patched piece of clothing in his hands, fumbling and not knowing what to do with it.
"Your third aunt is still not well, she won’t come over today. We’ve almost finished making the autumn clothes. Once Xiao Kai’s shoes are done, there won’t be much left to do. We have new clothes that are enough for you to wear, and mom can knit sweaters as well." Shen Meng covered the baskets with old cloth, tied them with rope, and then turned around.
"Mingyang, what are you doing with these old clothes?"
"Mom, my brothers and sisters now all have new clothes. Can these old clothes be given to uncle’s son to wear? I can’t fit into this one anymore, and Ming Liang also refuses to wear it."
Ming Liang, that eye-catching kid, now wears his new clothes every day, not even glancing at the old ones. Ming Fang and Ming Kai were also reluctant to wear old clothes. Although he felt this behavior was not good and wasteful, but... but compared to new clothes, he himself also preferred to wear new ones.
"Sure, just pick out a couple of good-looking pieces, the rest is not necessary. When it’s time to work, we still wear old clothes, it’s more convenient."
