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

When Huang heard her sudden question, she thought she was urging her to pay back the money, so she quickly said, "I'll find something to do in the spring, so please give me a few more days."

When the people on the ox cart heard this, they instantly became quiet and wanted to listen to what was going on.

Xia Wanniang naturally noticed the movement on the ox cart. She just smiled faintly: "That's not what I meant. I just wanted to ask about your plans."

Huang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "We have sold everything that can be sold at home, and only this house is left that cannot be sold. There is no one to wash clothes in winter, so I will go to the city to do laundry work in the spring."

Xia Wanniang looked at her hands exposed calmly. Her hands were very rough. In addition to the thick calluses, there were also frostbite and cracks on them.

She remembered that Huang was only about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, but her hands looked more than ten years older than her.

"Did you do laundry for other people?"

Huang nodded: "I used to be good at needlework and also did some sewing and mending work."

Huang Ming listened quietly at the side, but he sat very close to Huang, and looked around from time to time, as if he was on guard against something.

Xia Wanniang chatted with her in a random manner, and when they reached the city gate, the people on the ox cart separated.

Xiao Chiye looked at the Huang mother and son who were leaving: "Want to help them?"

Xia Wanniang turned to look at him: "Not at the moment, I'll see how things go later."

Xiao Chiye didn't say anything else and took her to an alley. This alley was not on the main street, so there were relatively fewer people.

Xia Wanniang looked at the shops along the street, all of which were small businesses that didn't make much money: "There are a lot fewer people in this alley."

Xiao Chiye nodded: "There are many alleys like this. Some alleys sell study items, some alleys are open at night, and some alleys are just like this one."

Xia Wanniang understood what he meant by business open at night, but there is nightlife everywhere, it’s just that some people participate in this nightlife voluntarily, while others are forced into it.

Xiao Chiye took him to the door of a dental clinic: "We're here."

Xia Wanniang looked at the not very spacious door in front of her and raised her head to read the plaque on it: Sanwu Pavilion.

This name is quite special. I don’t know how the owner here came up with this name.

Xiao Chiye saw her looking at the plaque and smiled: "Do you think this name is interesting?"

Xia Wanniang smiled and nodded: "It's quite interesting, but I don't know what it means."

Xiao Chiye: "There will be a pavilion five miles outside each city gate, and there will be another pavilion every five miles."

Xia Wanniang looked puzzled: "What is it used for?"

"A place where you say goodbye to your loved ones. Once you say goodbye, you may never see each other again. It is also called Sanwu Pavilion." When Xiao Chiye said this, he thought of every time his father came back and stayed for a few days before leaving, his mother would take them to Sanwu Pavilion to see him off.

Xia Wanniang looked at the name on the plaque and said, "It's quite appropriate. If people from here leave, they may never see it again in their lifetime."

When the clerk of Sanwuting saw the guests out, he saw two people standing at the door of their shop. He smiled and asked, "Are you two here to buy or sell anything?"

Xia Wanniang stopped looking at the signboard and turned to look at the waiter: "I wanted to come and see if you have any good farmland for sale."

The waiter immediately put on a more sincere smile on his face: "Please come in, my two guests. In this city of Los Angeles, if you want to buy something or have something for sale, we can find it for you here."

Xiao Chiye and his wife walked into the store. The layout inside did not look like a store, but rather like a teahouse, with many tables, chairs and benches.

The waiter took the two of them to a quiet corner and sat them down. "Please wait a moment, my two guests. I will go and ask the broker in the store to tell you what piece of land you need to buy. Just tell him."

Xia Wanniang looked around the shop curiously. After entering, she found that the shop was much larger than it looked from the outside, and there was no counter or anything like that. There were only square tables and chaise longues.

The waiter brought snacks and tea to the two of them, and then went to the backyard to call people.
