All the gifts were distributed, whether expensive or cheap, everyone liked them very much.
After putting her own things back in her room, since Wei Ziang was not ho, Xiao Mi took his things back to his room too.
Second Aunt, Jiang Hu, and Uncle Liu were still in the study. The sisters placed their parents’ gifts back in their room before returning to their own rooms.
"Second sister, Brother Ze is really good to you. These patterns he brought and the embroidery maid’s experience, you can’t buy that in town."
At this point, Xiao Mi had to admit that Liu Ze definitely has feelings for her second sister, right?!
Darn it, an eleven-year-old kid, where did he get so many intricate ideas? He actually knows how to give gifts according to personal preference!
Not to ntion the embroidery maid’s experience, the price must not be low, and without so skill, no amount of money could make those embroidery maids reveal their trade secrets, right?
Just those patterns alone, Xiao Mi took a look, even compared to the second sister’s best embroidery work, they are a cut above, certainly not cheap!
And then there’s the pearl cream, Xiao Mi has a good sense of sll, and when the second sister slled it earlier, she moved a little closer.
Although the pearl cream is the sa, the scent is different. The second sister’s has the fragrance of gardenia, which is also her favorite flower.
Gardenias are not really a rare flower, they can survive by cutting. There are also two trees planted in their courtyard, though the gardenia trees are still small, not even human height, but they bloom for quite a long ti each year.
But that’s not the important part. The important part is that Liu Ze deliberately chose these gifts according to the second sister’s preferences.
Although they must be expensive, at least they do not seem too outrageous and are the kind that the second sister would not bear to reject even if she knew they were costly.
Imagine if it were gold or silver jewelry of the sa price, surely the second sister wouldn’t even touch it?
Xiao Mi muttered and grumbled in her heart, but outwardly she seed harmless and innocent, without any scheming like Xiao Xue, who simply put these things away.
"I also like the ones Brother gave , and this sewing box is big; my old one is a bit broken."
Regarding her second sister’s reaction, Xiao Mi expressed that she liked it very much.
"Of course, in our family, only you, second sister, can embroider; nobody else has this talent, so we must nurture it well."
As for Liu Ze’s little intentions, she chose not to spell them out.
It’s better if the second sister doesn’t know. After all, how old is she? She’s only nine. How can she start thinking about early romance so soon!
Early romance must be absolutely prevented!
"Let’s take a nap first, Xiao Hua should co over in the afternoon. Brother is back, Xiao Mi, where do you want to play this afternoon?"
Xiao Xue is a complete hobody, unless necessary, she basically never goes out. Embroidery, apart from housework, is her only way to spend ti.
As for the other thing, it’s reading, reading books about embroidery.
There is no girls’ school in town, but both Jiang family daughters can read and write, and they do it quite well.
"There doesn’t seem to be much going on today. Brother just ca back, we should let them rest."
Xiao Xue has already tidied up everything and is making the bed, signaling for Xiao Mi to take a nap.
Xiao Mi crawled onto the bed and rolled around a bit: "From what Uncle Liu and Dad said, it sounds like we plan to move to the county. Second sister, do you want to go?"
Xiao Xue just lay down and was silent for a mont, neither expressing a desire nor disinterest.
"We’ve been in the village for so long, suddenly leaving would definitely be hard to bear, right?"
Xiao Mi’s eyebrows jumped; this was her greatest fear.
Everyone has a strong attachnt to their hotown and nostalgia for the land that raised them.
Leaving one’s hotown is absolutely a heavy decision and not sothing people do until the very last resort.
The Jiang family’s hotown is not in Fu’an Village, but their roots are in Fu’an Village.
If ultimately, the parents refuse to leave Fu’an Village, Xiao Mi feels she wouldn’t be surprised at all.
However, in doing so, the Jiang family would forever remain the current Jiang family, almost unable to move forward.
Just as Xiao Mi was lost in thought, Xiao Xue continued speaking.
"But I think what Grandpa Liu said makes sense. Brother, Brother Ze, Ziang, and Jiang Wei all need to study; they are all very smart."
"I heard Brother and Brother Ze say that in town, the most you can achieve is a student status. To beco a Scholar, you need to study in the county."
