Xia Xiaodong finally made the first two pieces of soft armor before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
The soft armor looks a bit like a long hooded jacket.
The outermost layer is made of black.
If you wear it underneath and cover it with a robe, you won't be able to tell that you are wearing soft armor.
Sewing so many layers of fabric together was much more difficult than imagined in the days before electric sewing machines.
That is to say, Mu Mu had some tenacity, so she managed to make two pieces, and several new calluses appeared on her right hand.
Xia Xiaodong was only doing cutting and technical guidance, but he was too tired to bear it.
Everyone is playing Ma Diao and playing leaf cards, or at least playing Shuanglu and betting dice for fun, just to celebrate the New Year.
As long as I am still busy, I really have a busy life.
But thinking about the white money, Xia Xiaodong's mood immediately improved again, and he immediately gave Mumu a reward of fifty taels, which made Mumu confused.
"Girl, I gave it to you before."
Mumu refused to accept it.
After thinking about it for a while, Xia Xiaodong seemed to have given it a tael.
"Just keep it, it's hush money."
Xia Xiaodong knew that he could only be direct with Mumu: "About this matter, just remember not to tell anyone who asks."
This time Mumu accepted it.
It's hush money, the girl said.
After handing over the things, Xia Xiaodong felt relaxed all over.
He took a good nap and didn't get up until almost midnight.
Well, I just happened to go to Mrs.
Lu's place for dinner.
However, Lu Yunzhi's face seemed not to be very good.
"Sister Yunzhi," Xia Xiaodong was a little confused: "Are you not satisfied with those two pieces of soft armor?"
You have to test it before you know whether it works.
You won't be dissatisfied so quickly.
Xia Xiaodong is quite confident in his work.
Lu Yunzhi shook his head: "That's not it."
"Let's talk while we walk."
Lu Yunzhi took Xia Xiaodong's hand and said with a smile, "You can't finish listening.
It's better to stand on the bank and watch the joke."
"Listening to what you said, it seems like it has nothing to do with me."
Xia Xiaodong put on the hood of his cloak and walked out with Lu Yunzhi.
Alas, my body is still a little thin now, and I am particularly afraid of the cold.
"That's what happened," Lu Yunzhi sighed slightly before speaking.
It turns out that because the Lantern Festival will be on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month in two days, the girls of the Lu family began to move around each other frequently, mainly to communicate about what clothes and jewelry they were going to wear on the day of the lantern viewing.
Just because many of the girls' clothes for all seasons and daily wear are made together, with similar patterns and styles, so communicating in advance can avoid having to match clothes and jewelry.
And if you know other people's plans, you can make your own choices, which will make you stand out and be special.
As a result, something strange happened at noon today.
After lunch, Lu Yunfang invited Lu Yunzhi, Lu Yunxin and Lu Yunsheng to sit in the long room.
The purpose, of course, is to show off the outfit she prepared.
As the eldest daughter-in-law, Lu Yunfang has always had a high regard for herself.
Since her future father-in-law was selected to be the deputy chief examiner of Chunwei, and her future husband-in-law was said to have a high chance of entering high school, she thought more highly of herself, so she was called They are all important girls from the Lu family.
The items that can be taken out to dry are naturally of first-class quality, including a diamond hairpin with a plum blossom pattern.
There were three hairpins in a set, Lu Yunfang got the plum blossom one, Lu Yunzhi got the orchid one, and the pine branch one was given to Xia Xiaodong by the old lady just a few days ago.
Because there was no place in Dachu to produce diamonds, and no one knew how to cut and polish them, all jewelry with diamonds were tributes from the vassal state.

If there are any at home, they were all rewarded by the palace, which is considered a very rare thing.
Lu Yunfang took out the hairpin, somewhat to show off.
It's just that Lu Yunzhi already has the same one, and Lu Yunsheng is even more invisible in everything, so only Lu Yunxin is young and somewhat envious.
"Do you remember that there is a new maid named Su Su next to Sister Yunfang?"
After saying this, Lu Yunzhi turned to ask Xia Xiaodong.
"Remember."
This is because Su Su is not easy to forget, and it is not a worry-free thing at first glance.
"Well," Lu Yunzhi continued: "Now this Su Su seems to be more and more aware of Sister Yunfang's thoughts, and asked her to take care of her clothes and jewelry.
At that time, Su Su was standing by and said, since Miss Yun Xin likes it, why not borrow her?
Give it to Miss Yun Xin, otherwise I won’t have a chance to borrow it until next year.”
This means that Lu Yunfang is about to get married, and there should be some show of sisterly affection at this time.
I don’t know if Su Su’s words were explained in advance or if they just fit Lu Yunfang’s thoughts.
In short, Lu Yunfang agreed immediately.
The higher level of showing off is, of course, not only showing off what is on your own head, but also showing off that what is on your sister’s head is also yours.
Lu Yunxin actually didn't really want to borrow the diamond hairpin.
She had nice jewelry of her own and didn't need to borrow it.
But when it came to this, she couldn't refuse, so she agreed.
At that moment, Su Su took the box, put the hairpin in it, and handed it to the maid Guizhi who was following Lu Yunxin to hold it.
Later, she took it back to Lu Yunxin.
However, after everyone chatted for a while and dispersed, Lu Yunxin returned to her yard.
Since she didn't pay much attention to the diamond hairpin, she ordered Guizhi to put it away first.
Unexpectedly, Guizhi suddenly screamed in a fuss.
Just because she opened the box and saw that the diamond on the hairpin was gone.
This was so strange and strange that Guizhi was so anxious that he almost jumped into the ice hole.
He knelt on the ground and pointed to the sky and swore curses on the ground, saying that he had never touched the hairpin and even opened the box just now.
Lu Yunxin naturally believed in her maid, not to mention that the maid had been following her and never left her eyes, so how could she do anything about it?
So, Lu Yunxin took the maid, the box, and of course the hairpin without the diamond in the box, back to Lu Yunfang's yard.
When Lu Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng, who were present at the time, were invited back to the long room again, Su Su and Guizhi were about to fight.
After all, in the final analysis, it's just a matter of hairpins.
Besides, girls are never wrong.
If things go wrong, of course it's the maids' fault.
It's just that Lu Yunfang and Lu Yunxin were protecting their maids respectively, and things became more and more confusing.
In the end, they even invited Lu Yunzhi and Lu Yunsheng back, but these two couldn't figure it out either.
Both Su Su and Guizhi don't look like people who have another opportunity to take action.
And if there is really a chance to take away the diamond, why not just take the whole hairpin instead of taking the trouble to just take the diamond:
