At dusk, a group of women arrived at Tan Zhenghong's house as agreed upon.
Qiao Duo'er immediately opened the door and let them into the hall.
She hadn't stopped since returning from town, and with Tan Zhenghong's help, she had already prepared everything.
"Duo'er, quickly divide the things for me; I'll go back and start embroidering right now," someone said impatiently.
With the New Year approaching, she needed to save money to make new clothes for her children.
"Don't be in such a hurry. I'll distribute everything first, and then I'll explain the rules to you. Everyone, take care of your embroidery pieces and line up. As long as you do a good job, each of you will get your share of embroidery work."
Qiao Duo'er instructed, and she also brought out the bamboo baskets she had prepared earlier.
"Sister-in-law, your stitches are neat and orderly; how about you make the sachets?"
