Mrs. Zhang hadn't yet expressed surprise that Qin Yao, a woman, didn't even know how to make clothes, when she heard Qin Yao say she wanted to build a new house.
Calculating in her mind, she thought of all the things bought yesterday and the debt repaid to Lao San, and yet there was still money to build a house. How much silver would that take?
In those six days up the mountain, she must have hunted something beyond their imagination!
Mrs. Zhang was so shocked she didn't know what to say, and all she could do was shout towards the back of the house:
"Husband, hurry over, Lao San's family is looking for you!"
He and Mrs. Qiu in the west room heard the commotion and stopped their work, coming outside.
Qin Yao immediately hugged the cotton and fabric in her arms and rushed over, "Can you two sisters-in-law help me make a few sets of clothes?"
