Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

When Zeng Xiaofeng returned to Zeng's house and entered the door, she ran into Miss Zeng, the eldest daughter of the eldest wife, who was just going out to meet a friend.

Miss Zeng was wearing an expensive purple mink cape, which made her skin look whiter than snow and made her look elegant and graceful.

The maid helped her forward. Miss Zeng covered her mouth with a handkerchief. Although she looked very beautiful, the words she said were sharp and mean.

"Where did this poor man come from? He is as lowly as those refugees. He runs out to show his face in public all day long. How shameless."

Zeng Xiaofeng was so ashamed after being scolded that she tried her best to defend herself.

"I, I didn't. I just went outside the city to give out porridge."

Miss Zeng was even more disgusted when she heard this. "The Deng family has demolished the porridge stall. Your father is also a fool. He threw the Zeng family's money into the mud. If your father was not incompetent, how could the Zeng family's paper business be taken away by others!"

Hearing the anger in her words, Zeng Xiaofeng didn't want to get angry again, so she lowered her head and said, "Miss, you are right. I am rude. I will go back and ask my father and brother to tear down the porridge shed."

After saying this, Zeng Xiaofeng coughed twice.

Miss Zeng was so scared that she quickly stepped back, her eyes full of disgust, "You didn't get sick outside, did you? Go back to your rat's nest and don't dirty everyone's place. It's bad luck!"

Zeng Xiaofeng left dejectedly with her maid.

Turning into the path back home, the maid said with great dissatisfaction: "Miss, if it weren't for the old master supporting the Zeng family, their first branch would have been ruined long ago. The money earned by the old master and the young master is used to support the whole family. Look at the clothes she is wearing, they must be newly bought. Their first branch is sucking the blood of the old master and the young master..."

"Stop talking and go back!"

The maid's words were interrupted by Zeng Xiaofeng, and then Zeng Xiaofeng coughed twice unconsciously.

Her lowered eyes were filled with resentment, she hated why God was so unfair!

After snowing for several days in a row, the snow gradually stopped.

The sun shone on a layer of light white snow, and the ground covered with fine snow gradually became visible. In an instant, the snow turned into water and seeped into the ground, becoming muddy under the trampling of people coming and going.

It was officially vacation time, and Lin Yinan had originally planned to sleep in, but was woken up early by his daughter.

It turned out that the day before, she had gone to her mother's house and her eldest and second sisters-in-law to buy a lot of New Year's goods. While Lin Yinan was on vacation, she asked Yun Shijiu to wake her up and send some to Old Lady Zhao, Li Shulan, and Master Dao.

Qianwu came back from outside, washed her hands and quickly came over to help put the New Year's goods into the basket.

"Did you send it to Chixia?" Yunmu asked her with a smile.

"I sent it. My sister asked me to thank the old lady. These are her favorite foods."

"She's almost due, I wonder if she'll give birth that soon."

Qianxia and Yunying were conceived at the same time, so their due dates should be about the same.

Qian Wu said heartlessly: "I think she can eat and drink well, she is fine, old lady, you don't have to worry."

Ever since Qianxia became pregnant, Yun Shiyi was afraid that she would be tired, so he hired a woman to help with laundry and cooking. Now that he is not at home, he has someone to accompany her.

Unable to get any words out of her, Yunmu glanced at Lin Yinan.

Lin Yinan patted her hand and comforted her: "After I give you the New Year gifts, I'll go take a look."

Today is a rare sunny day.

Lin Yinan took Yun Shijiu's little hand and carried the basket back to her parents' home.

Old Mrs. Zhao led Li Shulan and Zhang to make cakes and twisted dough sticks in the living room, while sisters Lin Yirong, Lin Yichun and Liu Yu were responsible for frying in the kitchen.

Old Mrs. Zhao was still in good health. When she saw the mother and daughter coming, she couldn't stop smiling.

After entering the house, she pulled Yun Shijiu over, held her in her arms, and kissed her fluffy little head again and again.

"Let grandma take a look at our little darling. Has he eaten breakfast?"

Yun Shijiu was a smart little boy. As soon as he entered the room, his eyes were attracted by the several pots of pastries on the table.

She shook her head first, then patted her belly and pointed a little with her fingers.

"Only ate a little? How can that be possible?"

Old Mrs. Zhao understood immediately and stuffed the candied fruits and dragon beard candies on the table into the small pocket of her coat.

Li Shulan picked up the cloud cake on the table and put it in her hand, "Eat quickly, your mother must have slept in and didn't feed you enough."

Lin Yinan felt ashamed after hearing this. In front of Nineteen, her mother always confused right and wrong. Since she was two years old, this girl was so stubborn that she would not let anyone feed her and would eat by herself.

Yun Shijiu squinted his eyes and stuffed piece after piece of Yunpian cake and hawthorn cake into his mouth.

"Nineteen, don't eat so much, be careful of getting cavities!" Lin Yinan wanted to snatch the food from her hand.

The little guy was unhappy and turned away to hide behind Old Mrs. Zhao.

"My darling is still young. If she likes to eat, let her eat. How can you be a mother like this?" There was a hint of unquestionable protection in Old Mrs. Zhao's tone.

Li Shulan chimed in: "We celebrate the New Year only once a year."

Both great-grandmother and grandmother were protecting him. Yun Nineteen leaned over and looked at his mother proudly.

Lin Yinan had no idea what to do with her for the time being and thought of going back to make some cooling tea for her to drink.

As they were chatting and laughing, Wu Yao walked out of the house.

She had just gotten pregnant, and this was the time when she was most reactive.

"Anan is here!"

Wu Yao greeted Lin Yinan with a smile, but when she smelled the cooking fumes coming from the kitchen, her stomach started to churn again and her face turned pale.

"Sister-in-law, if you feel uncomfortable, just rest more." Lin Yinan saw that she was enduring with great difficulty.

Wu Yao nodded somewhat embarrassedly, and subconsciously placed her hand on her flat belly. This was the child she had been looking forward to for a long time, and there could not be any mistakes.

Li Shulan is an experienced person. When she was pregnant with her three children, she couldn't stand the smell of cooking fumes.

"You go and take a rest. The kitchen will have to fry all day today. The meal is ready. I'll bring it to you." She said softly.

Wu Yao is well-educated and well-mannered, and she is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law.

"Go back to the house." Even Old Mrs. Zhao spoke up.

Unable to bear the smell in the room, Wu Yao apologized to Old Mrs. Zhao and went back home.

Looking at Wu Yao's departing back, Zhang's eyes flickered with envy.

How could Lin Yinan not know what she was thinking?

"Second Aunt, my cousin will be twenty next year. Does he have a girl he likes?"

Hearing her talk about her capable eldest son, Zhang's eyebrows curved and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"Life is better now, and with our family's reputation in Longtan, families with daughters want to marry us."

"This way, my cousin will have more options to choose from."

Despite this, Zhang and Old Lady Zhao could not make the decision on their own, because Lin Yizhang had already said that he wanted to marry a girl he liked.

"In the past two years, your second aunt and I have looked at many girls. We told him about the ones we thought were good, but Zhang'er was always hesitant and couldn't be in a hurry." Old Mrs. Zhao and Zhang looked at each other and sighed.

Zhang: "That's right, I'm really worried to death."
