Ye Jiu should have started learning embroidery at her age, but she had been delayed because she used to be in poor health.
Though a girl does not need to be exceptionally skilled at needlework, basic sewing and mending are essential. Otherwise, she might struggle like Zhao's family: even making clothes for her husband and children becomes a challenge, leading to a frustrating life.
It was Ye Jiu who awkwardly nodded in agreement.
Being good at crafts doesn't mean one is good at needlework. Looking at He's hands barely able to hold the needle made Ye Jiu's head ache.
"We'll talk about it later. More than embroidery, I'd rather learn to read," she considered.
"By the way, I saw everyone outside busy working. Why isn't my second sister-in-law out there?" Ye Jiu suddenly remembered.
He's expression tightened suddenly, "She went out."
The look on He's face was not one of complaint. It seemed that Zhao had informed her before leaving.
