Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Entrusted to Your Care (Part 2)
"Xiao Yue, it’s so ticklish." Zhang Tingyu hurriedly backed away.
"Cough."
Tang Yue cleared her throat, not expecting such a big reaction from Zhang Tingyu, and explained, "I just wanted to take your measurements, so I can bring you two sets when I go back this weekend."
"Okay." Zhang Tingyu nodded eagerly and asked, "Xiao Yue, are there any other patterns? I want something different, otherwise, we won’t be able to tell our clothes apart."
"I have the pink you like, I’ll make it for you then, you’ll definitely like it," Tang Yue assured.
Zhang Tingyu cheerfully asked, "How much?"
Touching the soft clothes on her body, if she really wore them to sleep, it would definitely be very comfortable, right?
Tang Yue glanced at her and said, "It’s free."
Zhang Tingyu touched her nose and changed the subject, "Xiao Yue, can you take measurements without a ruler?"
Zhang Tingyu pinched her own waist and then pinched Tang Yue’s, feeling vaguely that her waistline was a bit thicker than Tang Yue’s.
She pouted, troubled, "Xiao Yue, you eat more dinner than me every day, how come you’re thinner than me?"
Mr. Tang’s cooking was especially delicious, and since living at school, she hadn’t had any discomfort, but because of Mr. Tang’s delicious meals, her originally thin body had gained some weight.
Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were overjoyed, they always said she was too thin before, but now that she had gained some weight, they were the happiest.
"Tingyu, you’re just right now, any thinner and you’d be all bones, even the wind could blow you over," Tang Yue assessed Zhang Tingyu, who used to be so thin that a gust of wind could knock her over, but now, her slightly plump figure was just right.
Zhang Tingyu: "..."

"Xiao Yue, why is your letter so stiff?" Zhang Tingyu had just come back from home and saw Tang Yue’s letter by the gate, so she brought it over.
"Ah?"
Tang Yue took the letter, with bold, vigorous strokes, just like Mo Siyu’s personality, dominant and impossible to ignore.
The letter was on Kraft paper, and inside, it felt like there was a hard piece of cardboard, not like a regular letter.
What did Mo Siyu send her?
Tang Yue looked at the letter suspiciously, guessing to herself.
"Xiao Yue, I’m going to do my homework," Zhang Tingyu said proactively, seeing the handwriting that looked like a man’s, and though they were roommates, since Tang Yue hadn’t mentioned it, she wouldn’t ask either.
Everyone has their little secrets.
With immense curiosity, Tang Yue tore open the envelope, took out everything inside, and as she looked at the items on the table, she felt like she was struck by lightning.
The letter was folded into a ’heart’ shape, there was also a bankbook, and US$ 500.
Tang Yue quickly unfolded the letter, which lacked superfluous words, only indicating that this was the money he had saved over the years, asking her to keep it safe.
Tang Yue: ...
She took a deep breath, tore open the passbook, and inside was US$ 1,500. Although it was not much, it was saved by Mo Siyu. Her emotions were extremely complex; after her rebirth, she had never thought that she could have such a deep connection with Mo Siyu.
The defenses she had painstakingly built up earlier collapsed in an instant upon seeing the money.
It wasn’t the money she cared about, but the thought behind Mo Siyu’s act.
Tang Yue’s gaze tenderly lingered on the letter, her lips curling up involuntarily as she took out the letter and quickly wrote a reply.
...
Ever since Mo Siyu had sent the letter, he had been eagerly waiting for a reply, asking about it every day.
"Brother Mo, there’s a letter for you." Xiao Li spotted Mo Siyu from afar and immediately delivered the letter he held in his hand to Mo Siyu.
"Not bad." As Mo Siyu praised, his eyes softened even more when he saw that it was a letter from Tang Yue.
Upon seeing Mo Siyu’s demeanor, Zhao Xiangqian and the other two knew it was a letter from their future little sister-in-law. However, no one dared to approach further; after all, it was not a matter of fun, and the last time they carried weights and ran, it had nearly cost them their lives.
Uncle Mo, aren’t you afraid I’ll use up all the money?
Mo Siyu’s expression softened even more, his eyes twinkling as he treasured the letter back into its envelope, then slipped it into his pocket.
"Zhao Xiangqian, Yan Dong, Li Wei." Mo Siyu’s cool voice rang out.
"Brother Mo, we didn’t see anything."
The three men hiding to the side shook their heads in unison and ran off in a flash.
Mo Siyu was about to say something when suddenly, someone from the transmission room shouted loudly: "Brother Mo, the boss is looking for you."

After sending the letter, Tang Yue had been continuously waiting for a reply, but after several days without one, she wondered how Mo Siyu would react to her somewhat joking words.
Would he be pleased? Or would he be angry?
Tang Yue speculated a lot, unsure of how Mo Siyu would react. Over the weekend, she personally tailored two sets of pajamas for Zhang Tingyu, thinking that she had never made clothes for her mother or Xiao Jun.
Hmm, she would let her mother make clothes for her father.
Tang Yue made a set of pajamas each for Zhang Hualian and Tang Jun, then taking advantage of her free time, also made a red floral qipao for Zhang Hualian, considering that it was too short, Zhang Hualian would definitely not wear it so she intentionally made the dress longer, and also made specific modifications to the slit.
Saturday afternoon, the sewing machines had arrived, and Tang Yue had checked the newly cleared area. The previously vacant factory building was now instantly filled with sewing machines.
"Uncle, have you hired some people?" Tang Yue suddenly asked.
Tang Mingli chuckled and said, "Of course, I did hire. Moreover, this time, all are from Qianjin Village and people from Shuanghe Town. Seeing the opportunity to earn money, everyone sought connections to contact me. I thought, since we need to hire anyway, isn’t it a good thing if we can hire people from our own village?"
Tang Yue pursed her lips slightly; initially, she had thought about the people from the village, but no one believed her. Now that there was money to be made, they all sought intermediaries. She said, "Uncle, even though they are people from our village, we must clearly define public and private matters, or else it would be hard to manage the factory."
"Xiao Yue, rest assured, I understand all of this," Tang Mingli said excitedly.
Ever since the marriage date was set during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Tang Mingli had been as spirited as if infused with chicken blood every day, his excitement so apparent that even Tang Yue couldn’t help but purse her lips. The power of love was truly magnificent.
"By the way, Xiao Yue, your uncle will be sending over some timber tomorrow, do you want to go have a look?" Tang Mingli suggested. The new furniture and beds being made only needed to be taken to the county for installation, but instinctively, he wanted Tang Yue to come along to oversee the placements, and also, in case there was anything that needed changing or was missing, it would be good to fix it all at once.
