《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 80: Making Clothes
Advertisement
Before Yu Sisi went to Yang Xun's house, she went to the cloth shop by the roadside and bought a lot of textiles, mostly black, white, and cyan. She found that her master seemed to only wear these few colors of clothes.
She took the textiles and continued walking forward. She passed by various stores and finally stopped in front of a small courtyard with large bluestones at the door.
Yu Sisi gently knocked on the old wooden door and raised her voice, "Mrs. Yang, are you at home?"
"Ah! Yes, I am."
Yang Xun's mother's reply was soon heard from inside the door. At the same time, Yu Sisi also heard the sound of hurried footsteps approaching.
The door opened very quickly. Yang Xun's mother was dressed in ordinary clothes. There was a cloth wrapped around her head and she was using the apron on her waist to wipe the flour on her hands.
"It's Miss Yu. Come in and sit down. I have just made breakfast. Let's eat together."
Yang Xun's mother revealed a happy expression on her face. Even the fine lines at the corners of her eyes were unfurled. Yang Jian's death had dealt a great blow to her. She looked ten years older overnight.
"I've eaten, Mrs. Yang. I'll come down this morning because I'm free to see how you're doing."
Yu Sisi followed her into the courtyard.
The courtyard was not big. It was a flat piece of land that was more than thirty square meters. There were some common vegetables planted near the wall. There were also two apple trees that had already grown with some little green apples.
There were also some chickens and ducks kept in a corner. There were about ten of them. They were clucking and quacking non-stop.
The small yard was very lively because of the noise of the chickens and ducks. Moreover, Yang Xun's mother was a diligent person. There were many things in the whole yard, but they were neatly arranged. There was also no strange smell.
After stepping through the small yard, they entered a small low house. Because the foot of the mountain was not very peaceful, everyone's house was slightly lower than ordinary houses. They were afraid of attracting the attention of birds and beasts, and they were not afraid of collapsing.

The house had three rooms, one living room, and one bathroom. Yang Xun was rubbing his eyes as he came out of the room. He was putting on his clothes with one hand while he asked in a sleepy and young voice,
"Mother, who is it?"
"Why are you up? Go to bed later. It's your Sister Yu. Come and greet her first."
Yang Xun's mother felt sorry for her son. He had learned hunting knowledge from his uncles last night, and he had woken up so early this morning. He had only slept for four to five hours. How could he endure it at such a young age?
"Mother, I'm fine. Sister Yu, Good morning!"
When Yang Xun heard that Yu Sisi had come, he became much more energetic. He ran to the two of them and greeted them.
"Tsk, you won't grow taller if you're not getting enough sleep." Yu Sisi caressed Yang Xun's messy hair and pretended to be worried.
"What! Really? Mother!" Yang Xun was terrified. His uncles said that they would bring him up the mountain when he was as tall as his mother. What if he couldn't grow taller now.
Yang Xun's mother looked at Yu Sisi gratefully and coaxed little Yang Xun with her, "Yes, you can't grow taller if you don't eat well and sleep well. Sigh, what will you do in the future?"
"No, I want to grow taller. Mother, I'll eat well and sleep well. Can you let me grow taller?"
Yang Xun was anxious. She covered her head with both hands and completely believed the lies of the two adults.
"Then go to sleep. I'll wake you up in two hours to eat and send you to school." Yang Xun's mother pretended to be dignified and gave an order. Yang Xun nodded like a chick pecking at rice and then rushed to his bed.
"Yang Xun has grown a lot, but he's still a child."
Yu Sisi sighed. She couldn't help but think of her past, after losing her family, she grew up overnight.
Yang Xun's mother was in Yang Xun's room. She watched him obediently get into bed and cover himself with the quilt. She didn't fiddle with his little bow and arrow before she closed the door and came out.

"Yeah, he's really much more sensible now." He wouldn't laze in bed anymore, he wouldn't run out without washing up, and he wouldn't ask his father to play with him anymore.
"Ah, well, Mrs. Yang, have you finished sewing the cloth? I brought a new one to trouble you again. It's okay if you haven't finished the previous one. I'm not in a hurry!"
Seeing Yang Xun's mother become sad, Yu Sisi blamed herself and changed the topic stiffly.
"I'm done. Miss Yu, don't call me Mrs. Yang anymore. My real name is Xin. If you don't mind, you can call me Mama Xin. My family used to call me that."
Yang Xun's mother wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said to Yu Sisi, "Okay, Mama Xin. You can call me Sisi too. You don't have to be so formal."
"Hey, Sisi. I've finished making the clothes. Let me show you." As she spoke, Mama Xin went to wash her hands. As she wiped her hands, she went to the room to get the clothes for Yu Sisi.
Yu Sisi sat on the wooden bench in the hall and waited. She placed the cloth she brought on the table. She looked around.
The small house was very clean. There was a plate of pickled vegetables and half a pot of braised rabbit meat on the table. It had already turned into oil. It should have been leftovers from last night.
"It's all here. I made two sets of outer clothes and three sets of inner clothes. I also made a belt out of the remaining cloth."
Mama Xin carried the neatly folded clothes out and let Yu Sisi examine them.
Yu Sisi used her hands to measure them and felt that they should be suitable. She did not know the exact size, so she could only make a guess.
Mama Xin looked at Yu Sisi, who was really measuring them, and revealed an experienced smile on her face. She asked her, "Sisi, I don't think this size is from Mr. Xiong. Who Is it made for? I want to see what kind of person he is to add some patterns or something."
Yu Sisi tried hard to recall the clothes Jiang Yun had worn in the past. They seemed to be pure colors and didn't have any patterns.
"There's no need for that. I saw that he used to wear monochrome clothes and didn't have any patterns either."
"Sigh, you can't put it that way. How would a man know how to dress himself? It's still up to a woman to choose for him."
Mama Xin covered her mouth and laughed. Yu Sisi felt that her words were a little strange, but she couldn't tell what it was, so she could only agree.
"Then what patterns does Mama Xin think should be added?"
"It depends on what that person likes."
"Uh, roast chicken?"
"... Let's not talk about food, silly girl. Just look at what he usually plays with."
"Then let's make it lotus flowers and koi fish!"
Yu Sisi thought of the large lotus pond and the chubby koi fish in Jiang Yun's residence.
"Alright, then we'll add the lotus flowers and koi fish this time. Don't worry, everybody knows how good my craftsmanship is. I will definitely make the best clothes for you."
Mama Xin patted her chest and promised, "Then we'll make the clothes and belts, and also the shoes. It just so happens that the cloth this time is thicker, so we can use it to make the shoes."
Mama Xin flipped through the textiles that Yu Sisi had brought. It was not thick, but it wasn't as thin as the textiles used to make clothes. It could be used to make clothes also, but looked Sisi, the person she liked must be amazing. She had to use this cloth to make shoes.
The two of them discussed the accessories and patterns of the clothes and shoes for a long time. Yu Sisi couldn't help but admire Mama Xin's rich experience in making clothes.

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep! Cover art by @tahraart on Instagram. Link to discord: https://youtu.be/91wX0NRjJqg Have a good one, Pistol. **** THE STORY IS ON TEMPORARY HIATUS. WE WILL BE BACK IN 2 MONTHS. SORRY EVERYONE.

Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.
