She Also Knew How to Weave
Ding Yao shook her head. “It’s not bitter.”
Song Xue asked, “Then why did you put sugar in it?” Sugar was so expensive!
Ding Yao gestured with her hands. “It’s because if we put sugar in it, the roundworms in our stomachs will fight to eat the medicine.”
Song Xue came to a sudden realization. “I understand now. No wonder we had to drink it on an empty stomach. When the roundworms are full from drinking the medicine, they won’t snatch the food we eat anymore and won’t dilute the effects of the medicine.”
Ding Yao gave Song Xue a thumbs up. Why were the children of the Song family so smart?!
Song Yu wasn’t willing to be outdone. “Sister Ding Yao, I also understand why we have to stop eating meat and fats after drinking the medicine. Because the roundworm is just like a human. When it sees something good, it will continue to eat it no matter how full it is, right?”

Song Yu’s analogy made everyone laugh out loud. Ding Yao even gave Song Yu two exaggerated thumbs up. Song Yu was a little embarrassed from being praised, so she took the lead and drank the medicine.
After drinking the medicine, Song Xue touched her stomach and was a little worried. “Sister Ding Yao, do you think the roundworm will be in a lot of pain after drinking the medicine? Will it jump up and down in my stomach and make us roll around in pain?”
Ding Yao smiled and shook her head. Song Xiuyan knocked Song Xue’s head. “You have a lot of problems. Listen carefully. Ding Yao said that the roundworm will be paralyzed after drinking the medicine, which means that the whole body will be weak. The roundworm will be weak, so how can it jump up and down in your stomach?”
Hearing this, Song Xue was relieved. She happily ran to the backyard to pick vegetables. Ding Yao had nothing to do in the yard, so she went with her. Coincidentally, she saw Zhao Caiyun standing outside the wall and waving at Song Xue. “Song Xue, come and find me after you finish your breakfast. I’ll teach you a new method of weaving. I just learned it, and the new method will sell for a higher price.”
A flash of joy appeared on Song Xue’s face, but it quickly disappeared. She waved at Zhao Caiyun and said, “I’m not going. I don’t want to learn anymore.”
Song Xue wouldn’t have any objections against Zhao Caiyun just because she liked Song Xiuyan. However, Zhao Caiyun shouldn’t have any enmity towards Ding Yao. She should not have targeted Ding Yao. She had even seized on the fact that Ding Yao couldn’t speak and wanted to embarrass her. Furthermore, the rumors in the village were more or less related to Zhao Caiyun. When Song Xue thought of this, she became very angry and didn’t want to play with Zhao Caiyun anymore.
When Zhao Caiyun saw Song Xue’s expression, she explained helplessly, “The rumors in the village really have nothing to do with me.”
Song Xue didn’t reply. Zhao Caiyunwas also angry. She sneered. “Fine, you said it yourself. Don’t expect me to teach you how to embroider, how to weave ropes to earn money, and how to make new shoes!” After saying that, Zhao Caiyun left in a huff.
Song Xue was a little down. She liked to embroider. Zhao Caiyun was the best embroider in the village. When others asked Zhao Caiyun for advice, Zhao Caiyun would always be indifferent. Only to her, she was patient and didn’t hold back. She also liked to weave beautiful ropes. The ropes hanging on the Song family’s brothers were all made by Song Xue. It gave them a sense of accomplishment. Moreover, weaved ropes could be sold for money to support the family. These were all taught to her by Zhao Caiyun. It was also Zhao Caiyun who had brought them to the town to help her sell them for money.
Although Song Xue felt that it was a pity, there was nothing more important than her sister-in-law.
Ding Yao picked up the ropes on Song Xue’s clothes and took a look. Then, she used her hand to gesture. She knew how to weave too. In her previous life, there were all kinds of teaching videos on the internet. As she watched them, she also remembered many of them.
Song Xue understood Ding Yao’s meaning and was pleasantly surprised. “Really?”
Ding Yao nodded. Although Zhao Caiyun was very good at weaving, her character wasn’t good. It was a good thing that Song Xue didn’t play with her. She didn’t want her to be led astray.
After picking the vegetables, Song Xue couldn’t wait to shout, “Fourth brother, hurry up and wash the vegetables. I want to learn how to weave ropes from sister Ding Yao!”
Early in the morning, Song Xue and Ding Yao stayed in their rooms. They couldn’t bear to come out even after breakfast was ready. The people outside could hear Song Xue exclaiming from time to time, “Wow, this method of weaving is too beautiful! I want to learn it! Wow! This method of weaving is also very beautiful! It can even be mixed in colors and added with beads… This is the first time I know there are so many methods of weaving ropes…”
After breakfast, Ding Yao helped massage Song Yi and apply medicine. Then, she was pulled over to weave ropes by the excited Song Xue. Song Xiuyan and Song Yang hid in the study to discuss things.
