Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

Pang Xiu'e had deep resentment towards the old Sheng family. When she lived in the Sun family in the county town, she wanted to bring the old Pang family over, but was harshly rejected by Mr. Sheng. They were originally living under someone else's roof, so there was no reason to bring relatives over. Besides, even if they did this, what would the Sun family think? Besides, it would be difficult for Xiaoru to work in the Sun family, and she would lose face. They were originally living under someone else's roof, and they lived cautiously on weekdays, so how could they take care of their grandson's wife's family. If this precedent was set, what would happen if the families of other daughters-in-law and grandsons-in-law came together? We have to treat everyone equally. We can't help the Pang family and ignore other families.

Now the family has left the Sun family. Although they rent a house in the suburbs of the city, at least their own family has the final say. Pang Xiu'e worries about her mother's family every day and keeps complaining to Sheng Yuan, blaming Mr. Sheng for not caring about her mother's family's life and death. Now she doesn't know how her mother's family is doing.

That day Pang Xiu'e and Sheng Yuan talked about the old Pang family again, "Hey, I don't know if my parents have survived this chaotic world. There is no news at all now."

"The world is so chaotic now, I can't go out and ask around." Sheng Yuan sighed and continued, "It's too chaotic outside. My grandfather doesn't let anyone go out alone, for fear that they might be robbed by refugees."

"Tell me why you are so useless. You just do whatever the old man says. How come you don't have any opinion of your own?" Pang Xiu'e complained to Sheng Yuan.

Sheng Yuan couldn't get anything out of his slap, and Pang Xiu'e was just angry, so she called Xiao Ye to come home and play.

"Ye'er, eat some melon seeds." As Pang Xiu'e spoke, she took out a handkerchief that was wrapped around her body, opened it, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and handed them to Xiao Ye.

These melon seeds were saved by Pang Xiu'e when she was in the Sun family.

Pang Xiu'e and Shen were quite similar in some ways. They both loved snacks. The only difference was that Shen ate alone, while Pang Xiu'e was willing to share. Because of Pang Xiu'e's generosity, the children of the old Sheng family liked her very much.

"Ye'er, tell me, since we moved to the capital, has all the housework been taken over by our two rooms? Why doesn't the first room have to do any housework at all?" Pang Xiu'e complained to Xiao Ye while eating melon seeds.

It is worth mentioning that Pang Xiu'e has been at odds with Xu, who is also the granddaughter-in-law, since she married into the old Sheng family. Xu can live in the town with Daya, while she can only live in the old house with Sheng Yuan. If the eldest wife can earn money to support herself, she can feel more balanced, but when she knew that the eldest wife could only live in the county town by relying on the support of the old Sheng family, she was not happy.

But when Xiaoru was carried to the Sun family, the old Sheng family got 800 taels of silver, and Pang Xiu'e thought she could benefit from it, so she didn't get angry. But now that Xiaoru is dead and the Sun family can't be trusted, she jumped out.

"Before we lived in the village, the eldest brother's family didn't come back very often, let alone show filial piety to the old man. At that time, all the housework was done by our two families. The eldest aunt was at least a scholar's wife, but who is Xu? Why doesn't she have to do any work?"

Xiao Ye lowered his head and ate melon seeds, not responding to Pang Xiu'e's words.

Seeing that Xiao Ye did not agree, Pang Xiu'e continued, "In our family, the most capable people are none other than Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt. I just feel sorry for your family. You work the most but eat the least. Even when Xiao Tao was sick, Grandpa didn't even pay for the child's medical treatment."

Pang Xiu'e's words touched Xiao Ye's heart. But she didn't like Pang Xiu'e and couldn't be open with her. So she reminded her softly, "Sister Xiu'e, please speak softly, be careful not to be heard by others."

"I'm not lying. I'm not afraid of anyone who hears me. I dare to say this even in front of the eldest brother's family. Ye'er, if I were you, I would go and make a scene with Grandpa Sheng. Why do you have to do all the dirty work at home? Why can the eldest brother's family just sit around and do nothing?"

Xiao Ye thought to herself that Pang Xiu'e was holding a grudge against the Sheng family for not accepting her family. Now that she had left the Sun family, her life was not as good as before, so she had fewer concerns. She was now trying her best to encourage Xiao Ye to cause trouble, thinking of killing someone with a borrowed knife.

Xiao Ye was not stupid, and quickly shook his head and said, "How could I have the courage, Sister Xiu'e, we all admire you. In our family, you are the most courageous and dare to say anything."

"I'm a straightforward person, I just say whatever comes to my mind." Pang Xiu'e said. She wanted to encourage Xiaoye to make trouble, but she wasted a lot of time talking. No matter how she provoked Xiaoye, Xiaoye didn't react at all, let alone go to the old man to make trouble.

Pang Xiu'e was depressed, thinking that Xiaoye was still young and didn't seem like a cunning person. Besides, if she was really cunning, how could her family live in such a miserable state in the old Sheng's house? It must be her own personality, she would shrink and retreat when encountering things. Pang Xiu'e couldn't help but sigh that the child of the fourth family really had a hopeless personality.

Pang Xiu'e was thinking while eating melon seeds, when she suddenly covered her chest and started to dry heave.

This scared Xiao Ye, "Sister Xiu'e, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Ye asked hurriedly.

But in the blink of an eye, Pang Xiu'e's face turned pale. "I don't know what's going on. I suddenly felt uncomfortable in my chest and wanted to vomit." Pang Xiu'e's voice was a little weak.

"Sister Xiu'e, did you eat something bad?" Xiao Ye looked at Pang Xiu'e, who looked like she was in great pain, and asked hurriedly with concern.

"No, today I ate the same thing as everyone else. Besides, it's so chaotic now and the old man doesn't let anyone go out freely, so where can we get any snacks?" Pang Xiu'e said.

Seeing how uncomfortable she was, Xiao Ye hurriedly helped her lie down on the kang, "Sister Xiu'e, I'll go find Brother Yuan and ask him to come over and take a look."

Sheng Yuan was chopping wood in the yard. When he heard Xiao Ye calling him, he hurried home.

"Good Xiaoye, go and call your grandparents over. Your sister-in-law might be sick. We need to let them decide whether we should invite a doctor to come to our house to take a look."

Xiao Ye found Cui.

Cui looked at Pang Xiu'e for a few seconds and asked her a few questions.

"It's nothing, you're probably pregnant. This is your first child, so you have to be careful." Cui gave Pang Xiu'e some instructions and went back.

Farmers' wives were not squeamish when they were pregnant, and they would not give up their housework until the day before giving birth. It was rare that Cui could give Pang Xiu'e a word of advice, but Pang Xiu'e felt that she was being neglected.
