After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

The monkeys far away on another hill felt a chill and huddled closer together to warm themselves up.

When Xia Wanniang came down the mountain, she asked Xiao Chiye, "My husband, did you send New Year gifts to the shopkeepers in the city in previous years?"

Xiao Chiye nodded: "Yes, Shopkeeper Chang and Shopkeeper Hong have helped me a lot. Sometimes when I don't have enough money, they will lend me some on credit. So before the New Year, when I hunted prey, I would send some to them."

Xia Wanniang looked at the surrounding mountains and forests and said, "I'm afraid we can't send game this year. Let's send something else."

Xiao Chiye nodded: "Okay, let's go back and discuss it with mother."

The winter sun makes people feel warm and drowsy.

Before I even reached the door of my house, I heard the children's laughter.

Xiao Chiye was slightly stunned. The voices here were not just from his three children, but seemed to be from other children as well.

During the time he was away, a lot of changes seemed to have happened at home: "What is this?"

Xia Wanniang explained: "These are children from the village. They often come back home to play with Zimu and the others. Damei is also their playmate. Otherwise, I would not have taken action yesterday."

Xiao Chiye: "It seems that a lot of things happened during the time I was away from home."

Xia Wanniang didn't answer, but just pulled him into the yard.

The children were playing cards in the main room. Now that they had learned other games besides Cat Fishing and Catching Turtle, they really would not be without something to do here.

When the eldest sister saw them coming back, she immediately greeted them with a smile: "Aunt Xiao, Uncle Xiao."

"Father, mother."

A group of children saw them coming back, dropped the playing cards in their hands and ran towards them.

It was the first time that Xiao Chiye saw so many children coming to his house, and he greeted them somewhat awkwardly.

Xia Wanniang touched her eldest sister's head and asked, "Are you feeling better?"

The eldest sister nodded: "Okay, thank you for saving me."

Xia Wanniang looked at her with a smile and said, "Don't run around anymore in the future. You must stay close to your parents when there are many people around."

"Okay." The eldest sister nodded seriously.

Xia Wanniang saw Aunt Xiao waving at her and said, "Go play."

The children ran back to the main room to play.

Xia Wanniang pulled Xiao Chiye towards Aunt Xiao's house.

When Aunt Xiao saw them coming in, she pointed to the things on the table and the ground beside her and said, "These are New Year gifts from my eldest sister and the parents of the children in the village."

Xia Wanniang looked at Xiao Chiye: "It seems that the list of people we are returning the favor to has expanded a little more."

Aunt Xiao looked at her with a puzzled look on her face: "Return of the gift list?"

Xia Wanniang smiled and nodded: "When we came back, we were still discussing what gifts to give to the Qiao family and the shopkeeper in the city. Now that the villagers have also sent New Year gifts, I'm afraid we have to prepare some as well."

Aunt Xiao nodded and said, "The New Year gifts from the village are easier to pay back. Cloth, cakes and the like are considered top-quality New Year gifts. It's just that the New Year gifts from the people in the city are harder to pay back."

Xiao Chiye: "Mom, Wanniang and I have discussed it and it should be possible to return the gift with something that women like."

Aunt Xiao thought about it and thought it was feasible: "This is a good idea. Everyone has women in their family, so it's a good idea to give them gifts. Have you thought about what to give?"

Xia Wanniang took out soap, shower gel, shampoo, perfumed soap, etc. There were not many of each kind, only three. It didn't look like too little, nor did it look like too much.

Aunt Xiao looked at them and nodded: "These things are suitable, but we still need to write them instructions for use. Otherwise, I'm afraid they may not be able to use them after we send them to them."

Xia Wanniang hadn't thought about this, but after she pointed it out, she felt it was necessary: ​​"Okay, I'll go back and write it in a while."

Xiao Chiye thought about it and said, "As for the return gifts from the villagers, we can pick out some from the gifts sent by the Qiao family and send them out. We can't use up so many ourselves."

Xia Wanniang meant the same thing. They had no shortage of clothes and could wear the same clothes for the rest of their lives. Cloth was of little use to them, but it would be nice to use it to return the gift.

"I think it's feasible. Now we need to sort out the list of gifts." After saying that, she looked at Aunt Xiao, waiting for her decision.
