Qian Yixiu clung to Qian Xiang's garment and said, "Auntie Grandmother, Embroidery is here too. Embroidery misses Auntie Grandmother."
Qian Xiang happily picked up Qian Yixiu and kissed her, saying, "Auntie Grandmother heard that our little Embroidery can already earn silver now. You're really capable."
Qian Yixiu giggled, clinging to Qian Xiang's neck.
Qian Xiang had inherited the Qian family's good genes, tall and full-figured, with a round face and beautiful features, especially her bright and expressive large eyes. Because she took good care of herself and dressed well, even though she was nearly forty, she looked like a beautiful woman in her early thirties. It was no wonder Uncle Li adored her deeply.
In theory, a country girl like Qian Xiang couldn't have hoped to marry into the Li family. Although the Li's were butchers, they had a substantial family income. Uncle Li, an only son, belonged to a middle-class family in Xishan County Town.
