When old woman Wang went to the riverside, there were already many women washing their clothes. When they saw her come over with a basin, they couldn't help but laugh.

"Yo, isn't this Aunt Wang? "Why did you come here to wash your own clothes today?"

There was a lady looking at her with a face full of schadenfreude.

In the past, when Old Lady Wang had worked on the matter of the Lin family's mother and son, the entire village knew that she had been scoffed at by people as vicious and merciless as her.

Especially those daughter-in-law who were bullied by their parents-in-law at home, they liked to bully her even more. The anger they had felt at home all landed on Old Lady Wang's body.

"Aiya, Jingxiang, don't speak nonsense. Now that Aunt is by herself, if she doesn't come out to wash her clothes, who will. Who knows, maybe Lin Shi will come back to wash her, and she'll be scared out of her wits." Another woman winked at Jingxiang, mocking her.

Therefore, Old Lady Wang heard it clearly. She gritted her teeth and wanted to curse back, but then she thought about it, now that Song Dabao was locked up, it would be better for Old Lady Wang to not cause too much trouble at home by herself.

It was Song Xiangsi who, upon seeing her like this, could not hold back her laughter.

Old woman Wang had always worked hard on her wife, grandson, and granddaughter. She was used to it, but she had never thought that one day she would be bullied by her daughter-in-law from the village.

Those people chatted and mocked for a while, but Old Lady Wang did not have any reaction. She soon became bored and puckered her lips in silence, beginning to talk about other family's matters.

"Hey, have you heard? I heard that Wang Lai Zi from the Wang Family in the eastern part of the village had drunk wine a few days ago and killed his wife. " The wife called Jingxiang whispered to the woman beside her.

"What?" The woman was surprised. She opened her eyes wide and said, "How could this happen? How could they beat someone to death? Isn't that woman's house noisy?"

"Hey! "In the beginning, the woman's family did come over to make trouble, but who was Wang Laizi? He was kicked out of the family, and then the family told him they had to report him. That's why Wang Laizi got scared." Jingxiang smiled, but there was a look of schadenfreude on her face, as if she wasn't sad at all.

"What then? Did you really send Wang Laizi to jail? " The other woman quickly asked, her curiosity piqued.

Jing Xiang shook her head. "Both sides have settled the dispute. Wang Lai's family lost thirty taels of silver, so that family happily went back home without even glancing at that woman."

"Tsk …" "This is real! Such a young life, yet he died just like that. He let his family off for nothing." A woman sighed.

Coincidentally, both of them had finished washing their clothes, so they both walked away with their basins in their hands.

Old Lady Wang had been listening attentively since the beginning. A light flashed in her mind as she thought of Wang Laizi.

Although Wang Laizi was a scoundrel, his family was rich. He had heard that two of his wives had already been killed, and that they were all settled with money.

Thinking of this, Old Lady Wang's eyes darted around as she quickly threw away the clothes in her hands. She carried the basin home and ran to the eastern entrance of the village to inquire about the matter.

Since Wang Laizi's wife had already been killed, she thought that if she married Song Xiangsi, not only would she be able to earn a large sum of money, but if Wang Laizi killed someone in the future, she would also receive a generous compensation.

With this thought in mind, the old woman's heart felt a lot better. She happily changed into a set of decent clothes and headed to the eastern part of the village.

Song Xiangsi did not know about Old Lady Wang's dirty thoughts. Anyway, she had not come to make trouble these past few days, and Song Xiangsi felt comfortable. She could not be bothered with her anymore as she stayed in the shop to make clothes with Zhou Xiufen and the others.

After three days, she carefully wrapped up those ten pieces of clothing and personally took the cyan chrysanthemum.

When Wen Niang received the clothes, she quickly opened them happily, thinking that she had been thinking about them for several days.

When she opened it and saw the exquisite workmanship and the extraordinary embroidery, she became even more happy. She directly went up to the battlefield and changed all ten sets of clothes.

These ten pieces of clothing were simply tailor made for her. Although they were all red in colour, each of them had their own strengths and weaknesses. Coupled with Wen Niang's curvy figure, the effects were simply breathtaking.

Even Song Xiangsi could not help but praise him when she saw it, "I finally found the right person. These clothes look alive on your body."

Seeing Wen Niang walk around in her qipao, Song Xiangsi felt like she had returned to the Republic of China. She saw the faces of the famous ladies in her qipao toasting each other.

The other girls from the Green Chrysanthemum Workshop also came to see the commotion. When they saw the clothes worn by the Lady Wen, they could not help but reveal envious expressions.

Lady Wen was overjoyed. She could not bear to part with these ten pieces of clothing. She waved her hand and bought them all for herself. After having Song Xiangsi and the shopkeeper settle the bill, she took out another three hundred taels of silver.

"I also want you to make me another fifty sets of such clothes. This time, you have to pay a deposit. Within a month, you have to make them for me."

She wore a smile on her face, and the way she looked at Song Xiangsi also turned a lot friendlier.

Song Xiangsi agreed. He took the silver and placed it in his sleeve, smiling as he assured her, "Don't worry, Wen Niang. Since I've accepted your order, I'll definitely give it to you as scheduled."

She then turned around and ordered someone to pack some of the pastries for Song Xiangsi before passing them to her, "I got someone to bring these back from the capital. Ordinary people would not be able to eat them, so it's good for you to bring them back for your younger brother and sister to have a taste."

Thinking about the other party's good intentions, Song Xiangsi did not refuse. She received the snacks with a smile, thanked him again, then turned around and returned home.

Along the way, he pondered about what he should do in return. After all, things like gifts were always done, and Wen Niang would gift her with things twice. She should also prepare to return the gift, which was considered a form of courtesy.

After returning to the shop, she hurriedly threw herself into the design of the next batch of clothes. After all, in addition to Wen Niang's order, there were also orders from other stores, as well as clothes for retail sale. Time was of the essence.

With more orders in the shop, they also earned some money. Zhou Xiufang, Lian'er, and A-Jiao were all quite happy as they busied themselves happily.
