Chapter 94 What a Treasure
Li Yanming carefully put away the silver, then picked up the cut clothes from the table and began to sew.
Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Tianyou sat quietly opposite Li Yanming, watching him sew with their eyes fixed.
It is hard to imagine that this burly, strong man in front of me can use needle and thread so skillfully.
Li Yanming's big hands that held a knife and a gun became extremely dexterous at this moment. The needle and thread moved freely in his hands without any sense of incongruity.
The tiny silver needle seemed to be embedded between Li Yanming's three fingers. As his fingers moved, it moved accurately and quickly on the fabric.
Time passed minute by minute, and after about an hour, Li Yanming bit off the thread and picked up the sewn clothes.
Li Yanming looked up at Qiao Xiaoxi with a hint of expectation in his eyes: "Girl, try this dress. If it fits you well, don't take it off. Brother Li will sew a new one for you, so don't wear that linen dress anymore."
After saying that, Li Yanming handed the clothes to Qiao Xiaoxi, his eyes full of smiles!
Qiao Xiaoxi picked up the clothes happily and walked quickly into the inner room.
After putting on the clothes, I felt that this blue and floral fine cloth dress was as if it was tailor-made for me. It fits my body perfectly and is extremely comfortable to wear.
Qiao Xiaoxi walked out of the room happily and spun lightly in front of Li Yanming and Li Tianyou.
"Brother Li, Tianyou, how about we take a look?" Qiao Xiaoxi said with a smile.
The father and son stared at Qiao Xiaoxi with their eyes wide open, as if they were under a spell.
After a while, Li Tianyou came back to his senses and exclaimed sincerely: "Mom is so beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful woman. Mom is more beautiful than the fairies in the sky!"
Li Yanming said with a smile: "Although this fine cloth dress is good, it is still a little small on the girl. Tomorrow, Brother Li will sew two more high-quality silk clothes for the girl. Only such clothes are worthy of the girl's appearance and temperament."
"Oh no! No no." Qiao Xiaoxi waved her hands hastily, "Brother Li, I wear what the villagers wear. I am just like the villagers. I don't want to be special."
Qiao Xiaoxi thought to herself, it was not easy to survive after going through so much hardship.
Now I have to hide my tracks and fade out of people’s sight. I must not be discovered by anyone again!
From now on, I just want to stay here quietly and be a Li Qiao.
Li Yanming smiled slightly and did not say anything. He just lowered his head and continued to mend his clothes attentively.
This woman who lived in the mountains and lived with tigers had delicate and fair skin and was well-educated. It was obvious that she did not come from an ordinary family.
Moreover, he knew nothing about gold, silver, money, and price trends.
From this perspective, this girl who was willing to live in seclusion here and become Li Qiao must have had a little-known past experience.
Li Yanming thought to himself, I don’t care about the girl’s past, I only care about her present and future.
As long as the girl stays with me, Li Yanming, I will protect her.
Qiao Xiaoxi smiled as she watched Li Yanming sew Tianyou's clothes.
Soon, Li Tianyou's clothes were also sewn.
Li Tianyou happily picked up his clothes and ran to the inner room to change into them.
He ran out and spun around like Qiao Xiaoxi: "Mom, Dad, does it look good?"
Li Yanming smiled and said, "It looks good!"
Qiao Xiaoxi nodded repeatedly: "Looks great, looks great. Mother's son is so big, he looks like a fairy boy who has come down to earth, not like a human boy."
Li Tianyou smiled and sat down next to Qiao Xiaoxi.
The mother and son, both wearing new clothes, sat opposite Li Yanming, watching him continue to sew with a smile on their faces.
Qiao Xiaoxi couldn't help but be delighted and secretly sighed, "Dad is so right!"
As expected, those who can truly be called masters are mostly men.
Looking across the country, 80 percent of people who cook are women, but among those who can truly be called culinary masters, as many as 95 percent are men.
Similarly, nearly 90 percent of women in the country take up needlework, but among the masters in the field of sewing, more than 95 percent are still dominated by men.
This shows that when a man is determined to do something well, he does it better than a woman.
Li Yanming looked at the two faces in front of him that were smiling as brightly as spring flowers, and his heart was filled with incomparable satisfaction.
I have such a beautiful and gentle wife, and lovely and well-behaved children. What else could I ask for in my life!
"Brother Li looks so handsome when he sews clothes!" Qiao Xiaoxi looked at Li Yanming admiringly and praised him sincerely.
"Mother, what does 'so handsome' mean?"
"Yeah...it just means it's so cool!"
"Mother, what does 'so cool' mean?"
"Being cool means doing things quickly, skillfully and neatly, and it also looks good, making people happy and admiring!" said Qiao Xiaoxi with a smile.
"Oh! I see. Daddy is really cool." Li Tianyou also said with a smile
"Tianyou, if you don't understand these words, don't use them randomly. This is the favorite catchphrase of my mother's master, and others may not understand it."
Oops! I have to be more careful with what I say next time.
You must never casually say those words that only modern people use. What if Li Tianyou learns them and speaks them outside, wouldn’t you be regarded as a monster by the ancient people?
After all the clothes were mended, Li Yanming began to make the bed.
There were only two simple thatched houses. Qiao Xiaoxi lived alone in the inner room, while Li Yanming slept in the outer room with his son Li Tianyou.
As night falls, the countryside night is exceptionally quiet and peaceful, without the hustle and bustle of the city, only the rustling sound of the leaves in the breeze.
Immersed in this peaceful atmosphere, Qiao Xiaoxi fell asleep peacefully and dreamlessly all night until she was awakened by the sunlight the next morning.
After waking up, Youyou quickly got up, dressed and washed, and after everything was ready, she walked out of the room.
At this time, Li Yanming had placed the steaming breakfast on the stone platform outside the house.
The white rice porridge exudes an enticing aroma, and the yellow, greasy sesame oil cakes are even more mouth-watering.
The dish of pickled radish on the side adds a touch of freshness and deliciousness to this simple breakfast.
Looking at the food in front of her, Qiao Xiaoxi couldn't help but feel hungry.
Qiao Xiaoxi took a bite of the sesame oil pancake and found it crispy and fragrant, really delicious.
Take a sip of the fragrant rice porridge and eat a bite of the crispy and delicious dried radish.
Squint your eyes and revel in the pure natural food of ancient times.
Looking at Li Yanming with a smile.
"The food cooked by Brother Li is super delicious. Brother Li is really a treasure. He is good at both entertaining guests and cooking."
"Mother, you can be good at both the living room and the kitchen. What does that mean?"
"He can do great things outside and do housework when he comes back. Tianyou should learn from his father, to be able to hold a pen and a hoe, to write articles in the study and to make good steamed buns in the kitchen."
Li Yanming laughed and said, "Brother Li is not as good as the girl said!"
"Daddy is the best!"
