Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

As soon as Xiaoliang and the other two sat at the table, there was no place for the others to put their chopsticks.

All three of them were very dirty, with black fingernails and runny noses, which made people feel sick just by looking at them.

The three of them sat down at the table without saying a word. They just focused on shoveling food into their mouths. After a while, the food on the table was gone.

"Where did this beggar come from? No one comes out to take care of him." Xiu'e's sister-in-law couldn't sit still anymore and stood up and cursed.

"You are the beggar." Xiao Liang retorted while sweeping the food on the table.

How could Xiu'e's sister-in-law bear this? Besides, her brothers and their wives were watching. She rolled up her sleeves and slapped Xiaoliang on the head. Xiaoliang was busy eating and took the blow hard.

Xiao Liang was beaten but was not willing to give up, and he had almost finished eating. He stood up and bumped into her stomach. Pang Xiu'e's sister-in-law was knocked back two steps and almost lost her balance. She was supported by her brother's wife.

After Xiaoliang bumped into the guy, the three children grabbed the last bit of food left on the table and rushed out.

"The Pang family's education is not very good. I don't know what Pang Xiu'e is like. I hope she is not as troublesome as her sister-in-law." Guests at other tables were talking about it.

People were not happy with the behavior of Pang Xiu'e's sister-in-law and her friends occupying a table, but they felt very happy to see the behavior of Xiaoliang and the other two.

Xiu'e's sister-in-law and her group felt embarrassed, so they got up and left, heading towards Pang Xiu'e's wedding room.

After the banquet, the Sheng family sent the guests away and set up another table for dinner. All the food on the four tables was eaten up, so they had no choice but to set up a new table.

After dinner, Xiao Lan and her group went home. When Sheng Yuan got married, Zhang Shanfeng and Xin sent two quilt covers and quilt linings. The old couple also went to the banquet, but the rest of the family did not. Zhang Shanfeng and Xin witnessed the whole process of Xiu'e's sister-in-law's affairs.

"Judging from this, the daughter of the Pang family will not be easy to deal with. The Sheng family will not have peace in the future." Xin said while drinking water.

"Oh, I hope Xiu'e won't be like her sister-in-law. It's so rude. They are still new relatives in the first year, and if she behaves like this, I don't know what will happen to the Pang family in the future." Zhang said.

"The old Pang family's grocery store is well-known in the town. I heard that they specialize in cheating regular customers. If you ask them for a pound of sugar, they will weigh out two pounds. You are too shy to ask them to go back and weigh it again, so they just buy the sugar. No matter whether you are a farmer or a resident in the town, who would be willing to buy so much sugar at once? They will send you back after you go to their store once, and they never come back again."

Xiaolan's family were dumbfounded after hearing this, and they all thought that the Sheng family would be in for a lot of trouble in the future.

The next morning, Sheng Yuan and Pang Xiu'e served tea to Sheng Kai and Shen, and then followed his parents to the upper room. At this time, Mr. Sheng and Cui were dressed neatly, sitting upright on the kang, with two futons on the floor. Sheng Yuan and Xiu'e entered the room, knelt on the futons and kowtowed to the old couple, calling them "Grandpa, Grandma."

After the two of them responded, they were asked to get up. Then, Mr. Sheng and Mrs. Cui each took out a red envelope and handed it to Pang Xiu'e. This was the fee for the newlyweds to change their names.

Afterwards, Pang Xiu'e followed Shen to recognize the people, and called Sheng Nuo, Wang, Sheng Hao, Liu and Chunhua one by one. Every time she called someone, she would get a red envelope. The Sheng family did not split up, so the red envelopes were naturally prepared by Cui.

Sheng Xuan and Zhang also came over at this time. Yesterday, Grandpa Sheng and Cui told them to come early and prepare red envelopes. The amount of red envelopes prepared was fixed. Zhang followed the amount of copper coins given by the old Sheng family. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if she gave too much or too little.

After Pang Xiu'e called everyone, everyone in the room found a place to sit down.

When meeting the new daughter-in-law for the first time, it is natural to talk to her, ask her about her preferences and what she does at home.

Pang Xiu'e didn't say much, her face red, as she responded to everyone's questions.

After sitting for a while, Sheng Xuan and Zhang went back.

At home, Xin and her two daughters-in-law were sewing rabbit fur coats, and Xiaolan, Xiaoting and Xiaoyan also helped.

The rabbit skins at home have been tanned. The tanning of rabbit skins is done by Grandpa Zhang and Sheng Xuan. First, the rabbit skins need to be soaked in water for a day and a night to soften the fat. The next day, the skins are taken out and the fat on the inner layer of the skins is scraped off with a knife.

Then use the soapberry to make a pot of soup, filter out the soapberry, pour the soapberry liquid into the vat to soak the wool, stir with a pestle to ensure that all the rabbit skins are soaked. After soaking for a day, take it out and wash it repeatedly like washing clothes. After two or three rinses, put it aside for use. Mix the bean flour and mirabilite, add clean water, and stir evenly. This is the key to nitrifying leather. Soak the rabbit skin in it, and these solutions will penetrate into the fiber structure of the leather, making the leather soft, durable and not easy to rot. However, this is a long process, which requires soaking for a full month, and the rabbit skin must be turned and stirred every day during this period. To ensure that every corner of the leather can be nitrated. Take the rabbit skin out of the vat in a month, rinse it with water many times, and lay it flat to dry for ten days to make it fully dry.

Now that Xiaolan's rabbit skins have been dried, Xin, Fu, and Liu trimmed them and started sewing clothes. There were not enough rabbit skins at home for everyone, so Zhang had agreed to make windproof rabbit skin coats for Zhang Shanfeng, Shengxuan, Zhang Qingfeng, and Zhang Qingnian. The four of them guarded the safety of their family, and now they still take turns patrolling every night. It was cold in winter, and wearing a rabbit skin coat would keep you warmer.

Except for the rabbit fur coats made by the four men, no one else bought new clothes. The year was bad, so people didn't care much about how good their clothes were. They were happy to have warm clothes and enough food every day.

Zhang came over to see Xiaolan's sewing skills and nodded, "It's getting pretty good. You've learned the simple flat stitch."

"Although Xiaolan's sewing skills are not very good, my grandfather, my father and my uncle all want to wear the rabbit fur coat she sews." Xiaoyan looked at it and said with a smile.

"Why are you still talking about other people's shortcomings, kid?" Fu tapped Xiaoyan's head with her finger and said with a smile.

A few people were joking about Xiao Lan's needlework when they heard a series of footsteps outside. It turned out that Xiao Cao brought Pang Xiu'e to visit.

The village has been peaceful recently and it was broad daylight, so the Sheng family was not too worried about their safety.

"Sister Xiu'e, please come and sit on the kang. It's warm there." Xiaoting called hurriedly.

Xiao Lan pushed the snack box on the kang table towards Xiu'e and introduced them to her with a smile, "This is my grandma and aunt."

Xiu'e sat on the kang and called someone first. After looking around, she praised, "Fourth Aunt's house is really magnificent and clean.
