Bab 69: Chapter 68: Fulfilling the Mission Without Dishonor

Mrs. Wang said with a flushed face, "After the blue satin was torn up by my husband and Dahu, we barely managed to tear off a piece for myself and the two of my children Alu and Dabao, there's no more left. After we tear off a dress from the yellow satin for you all, I'll get one, and there will only be a bit more than two feet left, good enough for Afu to make an autumn coat or a vest."

These words had been advised by Chen Afu, implicitly informing Mrs. Hu that the second and third households should all have satin clothes, and it was unreasonable for their possessions to be given mainly to the first branch.

Mrs. Hu further commented, "Don't you still have white satin? Tear a few feet off for our Aju to make inner clothes, it would perfectly match the yellow vest."
