Chapter 651 - 064 New clothes, sentimental_3
Liu Limin felt the utmost disdain for men who were of old age yet still had unrestrained desires. However, as soon as she considered his identity, she did not immediately show impatience. Liu Limin was a clever woman who knew how to be flexible, what’s the harm in letting him have a glance? Just wait, sooner or later he’ll regret it!
Even though that had been said, after learning about this, Lin Yuan hurriedly sent Shopkeeper Liu to hire about ten guards to be stationed at Liu’s Brewery. It’s better to be safe than sorry, after all. Additionally, she let her relationship with Liu Limin be known to others. If Meng Tong, that old lecher, still had some sense, he probably wouldn’t harbor any inappropriate ideas towards Liu Limin. Liu Limin was still an unmarried girl; if that bastard set his sights on her, she would need to be well protected.
Of course, considering that man was Meng Chunyan’s father, Lin Yuan had no good feelings toward him either. She hoped he was all talk and no action. Otherwise, if he were to act, she would definitely not hold back!
The end of the year was approaching. This was Lin Yuan’s first New Year’s celebration in her new surroundings, and she had started making preparations early. Food and vegetables were readily available from the restaurant, so she didn’t need to worry about those. The only thing she needed to take care of was the new clothing for her family. Upon thinking of new clothes, Lin Yuan remembered the rabbits she was raising at home.
Initially, her plan was to breed some rabbits with pure white fur and use their pelts to make clothing. It was usually Lin Wei who cared for the rabbits at home. This time, Lin Yuan visited the rabbit hutch and was surprised to find that quite a number of white rabbits had been bred. She counted them, and there were about twenty, big and small.
After discussing with Lin Wei, Lin Yuan selected a few male rabbits to cull and use their fur for clothing.
Though Lin Wei was reluctant to see the rabbits she had raised by hand killed, upon noticing that there seemed to be too many—and that they were nearly outgrowing their hutch—she didn’t say any more.
Speaking of using rabbit fur for clothing, it wasn’t that simple. Lin Yuan hired a professional hunter from the town to skin and cure the rabbit pelts. The hunter kept muttering that he had been hunting for so many years, and it was his first time seeing so many rabbits with such pure fur.
After the skin was removed from the rabbit, it still needed to be cured. Curing didn’t mean cooking or baking the skin, but rather it involved a series of special treatments to prevent the skins from molding or smelling.
