all along, reached out and grabbed her son's arm. "Laosi, don't cause trouble."Having said that, she turned to Guo Shi, "Sister-in-law, it's my fault for not considering things through. Don't worry, n...The old woman shook her head, “That’s not it. There have been especially many people these days, I don’t know why…”

And there are people who come specifically to eat, ordering dishes every day for your aunt-in-law to make. It's really troublesome. 。But that's not a bad thing either. When your sister-in-law is busy, she doesn't think about the fourth brother as much. She comes home every night and goes straight to bed after resting her head on the pillow. 。" Huiniang smiled gently and replied, "Sister-in-law four is so good. With her skills, she can support herself." 。The old woman, afraid she would sink into self-pity, said, "You have skills too. Your embroidery is really quite good." 。After you recover, I'll accompany you to the city to find a embroidery shop and get some embroidery work. 。Whether it's profitable or not doesn't matter, just killing time and keeping you from overthinking all day. 。“ Huiniang had this very thought. When she heard the old woman say it, she took the old woman's hand and thanked her. ” 。"Thank you, Auntie. You've planned so much for me." 。" Don't think so highly of your aunt, dear. I have my own selfish reasons too. 。Listen, Master Yan...no, listen to Li Yong say, you're from a well-off family, right I was thinking, once you've recovered, you could teach our Fu Niu some things in your spare time. Like reading and writing, or embroidery, or even etiquette... 。All right, I'll take care of this child. There's nothing wrong with our family, but since she has the Marquis as her godfather, we can't let anyone underestimate her, that would be a joke! Don't worry, Aunt. This is easy, I will definitely teach Niece everything I know. 。Hui-niang readily agreed. She was incredibly grateful for the Li family's hospitality and adored Fu-niu's sweetness and intelligence. 。Even if we take the worst-case scenario, she relies on the Li family for her livelihood now. Giving Fu Niu a title would give her more confidence. 。Speaking of this, Mrs. Li asked a few more questions, “Huan-niang, you were by your father’s side at the mine, but now you are here, what about your father And should you send a message to your family”Huan-niang smiled bitterly, “Aunt, my father has always been in poor health. Even if I take care of him with food and clothing, being imprisoned is not as good as life used to be.” 。Last winter, the weather was bitterly cold. My father's illness worsened and he gradually became unable to . 。At that time, my husband and I had just made up our minds. My husband kept looking for a doctor to treat me, but they all said to prepare for the worst. 。My husband only just went before my father to ask for my hand in marriage, and my father agreed. 。He passed away just a few days after our wedding. 。" The old woman was stunned. She had originally thought that the couple, Hui's husband and wife, were colluding privately. Now it seems that they are quite legitimate. After all, they got Hui's father's permission and didn't break any rules. " 。Jiayin was also captivated by the sound, lying on her grandmother's lap and playing with a handful of beans. 。Hui Niang saw the old lady's expression and sighed softly. 。As for my natal family, when my father had an accident, my mother took my two younger brothers back to my maternal grandfather's house and never sent anyone to visit or gave a single copper coin. 。"I... I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore!" The old woman nodded. "Your mother is indeed too heartless and unfilial. Even if she's angry with your father for making mistakes and burdening the whole family, you are still her own biological daughter, aren't you Why don't you worry about whether you'll be bullied in the mine"Hui-niao hesitated for a moment, then added, "My birth mother was my father's original wife. My current mother is his second wife..." 。"No wonder!" the old woman grinned, feeling even more sympathy. "You poor child!" Hui-niang's eyes turned red, but she still smiled, "Aunt, I'm not suffering..." 。On the contrary, I think I'm particularly lucky. I married a good husband. 。Although he acts impulsively and sometimes behaves like a child, he is genuinely sincere to me. 。“I’ll wait for him to come back!” “That’s right! You’re a smart girl, Auntie likes it, that’s how it should be! Any time, we should look at the bright side!” Huiniang saw that the old woman was happy, so she brought up another matter, "Auntie, are there any widowed or single elderly ladies in the village I want to… move out and live…” 。My aunt's house has many children, and she is already very tired. I am here, adding more chores for my aunt and sister-in-law, and I feel guilty about it. 。"

Old Mrs. Li didn't react and still wanted to keep the person.

Just as Li Lao Er came in from outside, he loudly said in the main hall, “Mother, things are very busy at the mountain valley. Fourth Sister-in-law says she can’t come back, so please make something for us to eat at noon.” 。"Oh, alright!" Old Mrs. Li responded, and Li Lao Er immediately turned his head and left. 。Grandma Li, from the crack in the window, watched her son's back and suddenly understood. 。 Isn't she trying to avoid suspicion Think about it, the second son just lost his wife and the eldest will be back in a couple of months. 。Here, Hui Niang lives in and out, it is indeed inconvenient. 。Everyone in the village knew about it, no one gossiped, and it was ultimately a good thing. 。"Aunt understands, Hui'er, you can rest assured, these days Aunt will figure out a good place for you." 。Take good care of your health and don't overthink things. 。" OK, Aunt " 。Hui Niang felt at ease and smiled even more gently. 。Jia Yin really liked this master, she started pondering while nestled against Grandma's thigh. 。In fact, Mrs. Cui next door has many rooms in her house. It would be best to borrow one. 。But Madam Cui was rarely at home, and Huiniang was pregnant. What if something happened to her There wasn't anyone around to help if she got hurt, so she felt uneasy. 。His stepfather's place was even worse, more gossipy than his own home. 。After thinking about it, she really thought of a good place to go, which was the grandfather's house. 。The village head's house has three rooms, and the old couple lives in one, with another room left empty. 。Huiniang used to live there, keeping company with her elderly parents every day. Zhang Shenyi, the famed physician, lived just next door in a courtyard separated by only a wall. It was simply too secure. 。While Huiniang went to get some water, she quickly leaned into her grandmother's ear and whispered 。The old woman's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she gently tapped her granddaughter's forehead, "This cleverness, you really have it all." 。After dinner in the evening, the old woman went for a stroll and happened to stop by the village chief's house. She chatted with the village chief's wife for a few moments and when she returned, her face was beaming with joy. 。Jia Yin saw that it was done and felt relieved, so she followed her brothers to the west room to play. 。The school year has begun, those little rascals played themselves silly for almost a month over the New Year. As a result, on the first day of exams, most of them failed miserably. 。So, at this moment, sitting at the kang table, writing large characters as punishment and reciting texts, each one was pulling a bitter gourd face, scratching their ears and cheeks, like monkeys tied up. 。Jiao Yin held a fruit and munched on it, looking here and there, stirring things up, causing her brothers to clamor and shout even more. 。Finally, Tao Hongying heard the commotion and came over to rescue her sons and nephews. She picked up her daughter, chiding her with a slap, "What mischief are you making Disturbing your brothers' studying!"Jia Yin smiled widely, hugging her mother's neck and winking at her brothers, making funny faces. The boys were so angry that they retaliated with their own grimaces. As a result, the pen in one boy's hand accidentally drew large characters, and he had to rewrite the whole piece!Tao Hongying took her daughter into the east room. Hui Niang took out the embroidery thread and played with Jia Yin, teaching her how to make knots. 。Tao Hongying tore open a soft piece of cotton cloth and, with the old woman's help, cut out several little shirts for Hui Niang's baby. 。It is estimated that the child will be born around September, when it gets a little chilly. A thin cotton garment was made to wear indoors at just the right temperature. 。She was busy complaining to her mother-in-law, “Mother, the valley is becoming more and more like a tavern. The recent guests I’ve seen seem to be coming here just for the food, not the hot springs!”i go to the shop and buy some delicious treats. Make a big fuss about it, so that everyone will want to rush into the store and try the snacks that Grandpa Huang likes!"This was easy, the Emperor read...
