Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Moving (Third Update)

The time to move was getting close, Tang Yue was also particularly looking forward to it.

That day, Zhang Tingyu’s mother brought over some fabric. It wasn’t cotton but silky satin, with a beautiful pattern and a smooth touch, feeling exceptionally fine.

"Xiao Yue, I really liked the pajamas you made for me. This fabric was gifted to me by a friend, and I have no use for it myself. So I’m passing it on to you as a gesture of goodwill. Please don’t despise it," Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, gentle and virtuous.

Ever since receiving the three sets of pajamas made by Tang Yue, she had been thinking about what to give as a thank-you gift.

Giving money would be too impersonal.

And giving food wouldn’t be quite right either.

After some thought, Mrs. Zhang remembered some high-quality fabric she had received from a friend.

Tang Yue could sew, and this top-quality fabric would make the perfect thank-you gift.

"Aunt Zhang, no, this is too valuable," Tang Yue refused without a second thought, aware of the high cost of the quality satin.

"Xiao Yue, this fabric would just be stuffed in a cupboard if it stayed with your aunt, wasting such good material," Mrs. Zhang insisted, placing the fabric into her hands, "But in your hands, it will transform into beautiful clothes. So, Xiao Yue, please don’t refuse your aunt. If you really think it’s too expensive, just make a set of clothes for my daughter Tingyu when you make yours."

This fabric was more than enough for two sets of clothes.

"This..." Tang Yue hesitated, feeling like she was getting the better end of the deal.

"Xiao Yue, just take it," Zhang Tingyu held Tang Yue’s hand earnestly and said, "I eat the food Uncle Tang makes every day without any fuss. If you are so formal about this, should I start paying Uncle Tang for the meals?"

"Alright, I’ll accept it," Tang Yue no longer hesitated.

Zhang Tingyu grinned and said, "That’s more like it."

Holding the fabric, Tang Yue already started thinking about what clothes to make with it, although the weather was getting colder, and the clothes might not be worn for long.

Moreover, this satin fabric was cool to the touch, perfect for making summer dresses or equally beautiful as pajamas, even if it felt like a bit of a waste to only wear such fine material at home.

Time swiftly passed by. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

On Saturday, the entire Tang family, including Tang Mingli, returned to Qianjin Village.

The move was mostly done at midnight, and Tang Zhengde along with Zhang Hualian came back at noon to start packing.

Later in the evening, just before dinner, a farm vehicle stopped in front of the Tang family’s house.

When the people of Qianjin Village heard that Tang Zhengde’s family was moving to the county town, they all looked on with envy.

Initially, when Tang Zhengde had quit his job at the forest farm to open a store in the county, everyone thought he was foolish.

Even later, when Tang Zhengde came home for the New Year and seemed to be doing well, people still thought it was only temporary.

But now, just a year later, they were moving to the county town, and his son was also studying in the town. People began to realise the gap that had formed.

After this move, indeed quite a few people from the village tried opening stores in the county, which allowed many villagers to earn money, but of course, that’s a story for another time.

"Xiao Yue, Xiao Jun, pack the things you need to take to the county yourselves," Zhang Hualian said, bustling about ever since her return, knowing that most of their time would be spent in the county hereafter, likely only returning home during festivals.
