Zhen Lin: "Wait a little longer. Let's chat."

Zhen Yue: "No need, it's getting late, we'll walk back."

"Okay then, go back and be careful."

"Okay." Zhen Yang also took out the backpack. Zhen Yue found that the backpack was much lighter. She didn't know what Zhen Yang brought for her. Just as she was about to leave, Zhen Yue paused and looked at Qiao Chao. "By the way, little Achu hasn't greeted his uncles and aunts yet. Come on, let little Achu greet them."

They both sent out more than a dozen red envelopes, but they didn't receive a single one? Zhen Yangshi and Zhen Dawei had no intention of giving it to her.

Qiao Chao held little Achu in his arms and walked over to them one by one, "I wish my uncle a happy new year."

"I wish my aunt a happy new year."

Everyone present immediately forced out a smile, and finally took out a red seal and stuffed it into Xiao Achu's pocket. Zhen Yue looked at Zhen Yangshi, "Mother, and father, you won't give your daughter and son-in-law anything?"

Zhen Yang was about to get angry again, and Zhen Yuemei waited for her to get angry, "Forget it, I'm the daughter who was thrown out anyway, I'll tell people when I see them later..."

Zhen Yang: "Okay, okay, wait a moment." She quickly returned to the room and took out two red envelopes, one for her and one for Zhen Dawei. Zhen Yue reached out and quickly took them and put them on her chest, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. I wish you peace and safety in the new year."

Zhen Yang rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go back." Then she pulled her all the way to the door and told Qiao Chao to hurry up, "Son-in-law, hurry up." Then she said to Zhen Yue, "Don't blame your mother. You know there are so many mouths to feed at home, and there is not much money at home. You, remember your family when you make money, otherwise who will support you in the future?"

Zhen Yue said perfunctorily: "Yeah, let's go."

After Zhen Yue and the others left, the Zhen family discussed how to grow vegetables and sell them.

After leaving the Zhen family, Zhen Yue returned to her indifferent look. She sighed, "I'm too tired. I'll avoid coming here in the future if I can." She was pretending to be too tired.

Qiao Chao glanced at her. He had seen her pretending for a long time at Zhen's house. Of course, he was pretending too, so he also felt tired. "Okay."

Zhen Yue glanced at him and put down the backpack. "I'll hold the child, and you carry the backpack."

The two of them changed their division of labor and headed back to Danan Village. The road was not easy to walk on, so Qiao Chao supported Zhen Yue from time to time. Zhen Yue glanced at this cheap husband and thought that he was an okay guy. At least he was obedient and could work and earn money.

If she really stayed here forever, it would be fine to live like this for the rest of her life.

When they got home, Qian and the others had not returned yet. Qiao Chen was also surprised to see them return so early, "Back so early?"

Zhen Yue: "Well, it's getting dark quickly, come back early. Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."

Qiao Chenshi: "I'll go make you some noodles."

The noodles were ready soon. Zhen Yue and Qiao Chao sat aside and ate them. They were very simple noodles with some vegetables. Each person also had an egg and a plate of pickles on the side.

Mrs. Qiao Chen held little Ah Chu in her arms, watching them eat heartily as if they had nothing to eat at her mother's house. Mrs. Zhen Yang couldn't possibly let them come back without giving them food, right? This couldn't be possible? This would make her feel bad.

After eating and drinking, Zhen Yue felt alive again. It was really cold walking back in the cold wind. She was frozen stiff. Qiao Chao even held her in his arms as they walked together.

After finishing their meal, the two of them went to roast a fire. Qiao Chen even put some peanuts next to the fire to roast.

"By the way, is there anything in the backpack we brought back?"

Qiao Chenshi: “I haven’t seen it yet.”

Zhen Yue: "I'll go take a look."

Although she didn't have much expectation, she was speechless when she saw it. A pound of rice and flour was returned, and the rest were some dried wild vegetables, two pickles, and two cents... No wonder it was so light.

Zhen Yue ate some of this pickled vegetable today, and she almost vomited it out at that time, it was too salty! The pickled vegetables made by the Qiao family were also very salty before, but later Zhen Yue gave some guidance, and they used vegetables she grew, so the pickled vegetables were also very delicious.

As for the pickles, they were all fed to chickens, pigs and donkeys. I don’t know if the donkeys later had good food and wouldn’t touch the pickles.

It seems that the pickles brought back from the Zhen family have to be fed to the chickens and pigs. Wait, there seem to be no chickens and pigs at home. It seems that I have to buy some piglets and chicks in the future.

Not long after, there was a noise outside the door. It was Qian and Qiao Er who came back. They both looked a little embarrassed.

Qiao Chen walked out, "Are you back? Are you okay?"

Qian jumped out of the car and waved her hand, "Not good, I'll go get some water."

Qiao Chenshi: "There is hot water in the pot."

Qiao Er fixed the donkey cart and brought Xiao Nian down with him. "Mom, is there anything to eat?"

Zhen Yue came over to take Xiao Achu over, and Qiao Chen went to the kitchen, "I'm going to make you some noodles. Why are you all coming back without eating?"

After drinking some water, Qian finally calmed down and said, "I really didn't eat."

Qiao Er also came over to drink some water, and then gave Xiao Nian some water to drink, "We almost couldn't get the donkey cart back."

Qian sat aside and helped to light the fire. She talked about her return to her parents' home today. "We just returned today. My sisters and brothers-in-law also returned with us. At the beginning, they all asked us whether the Qiao family had made any money."

Qian: "Of course I didn't say that my family made a lot of money. I just said that my family sold vegetables, but my family also owed a lot of money. I followed my eldest sister-in-law and borrowed money from my sisters. But they didn't lend me money."

Qiao Er added, "Later, when we were preparing to make lunch, the Qian family next door started quarreling for some reason. We ran to see what was going on. It turned out that the daughter of the neighboring family came back home, and her son-in-law came with her. It seemed that the girl's brother was getting married, and he hoped that the daughter would give ten taels of silver. The daughter said she would go home and find a solution, so the son-in-law got angry."

"Finally, the son-in-law threatened to divorce the daughter if she dared to give him ten taels of silver. Then the brother and his brother-in-law started arguing and fighting. The daughter's family was more numerous and powerful, and the son-in-law was beaten black and blue. In the end, he left after saying he would divorce the daughter."

Qian said, "My mother was watching the fun, saying that the family next door wanted ten taels of silver. Why didn't they just rob them? She wanted three taels of silver at most."

"When I got home, my mother said that the family wanted to build another house and asked us to pool the money. She said it would be best if each of us contributed one tael of silver. My eldest brother-in-law was unwilling to do so and said that if he didn't give it, he would divorce my eldest sister like the family next door did."

Qiao Er: "As soon as this was said, there was a big fight. My brother-in-law and my father-in-law were about to fight with my eldest brother-in-law. We tried to persuade them, but in the end my eldest brother-in-law said that he would not give it anyway and asked us to give it. I definitely would not give it either, it's only one or two taels of silver."

"Of course, the second brother-in-law didn't want to give it either. Finally, they discussed that each brother-in-law should give half a tael of silver. My eldest brother-in-law was unwilling to give it either, saying that my eldest sister always brought good things to their house, and if he gave half a tael of silver, they wouldn't have to eat. Then my eldest brother-in-law left angrily without taking my eldest sister with him."

"My second brother-in-law didn't want to either, so he left on his own. Finally, I thought about it and winked at Qian and left quickly. My brother-in-law caught up with me and said he wanted to keep the donkey cart. Of course I refused and ran back with Qian."
