A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

De Lengyan led his younger brothers and sisters to visit the homes of familiar villagers in the village to pay New Year's greetings and wait to go home.

However, he found that the room usually used to receive guests was now full of villagers, just like the smoky chess and card room in his previous life.

She just looked out and quickly retreated.

"Sister, what's wrong?"

Leng He and Leng Jiaren who were following behind wanted to enter the house, but were bumped into by Leng Yan who had turned back.

"Don't go in yet, there are too many people inside."

Just imagining the stares from the people inside the house and the greetings they would give her after she entered the house, Leng Yan felt her scalp tingling.

She didn't dare go in, nor did she dare go far. With so many people coming to her house, what if something happened and her parents couldn't handle it?

Thinking back to when she had just taken a quick look at her uncle, aunt, and elder brother, all looking depressed in the house, Leng Yan felt that nothing good was going to happen.

"Then where are we going? Why don't we go back to the room?"

Leng Jiaren suggested.

When we return to the room, we can no longer hear the sounds from here. Leng Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's build a snowman in the yard and go back to the room when it gets cold!"

"Okay, okay!"

When they heard that they could play in the snow, the kids instantly became interested.

Afterwards, the siblings had not been busy making a snowman in the yard for long when they saw from afar Yang Guihua, her children, and Aunt Yuegui walking towards their home.

"Hey, Sister Yan and Brother Qi, are your parents home?"

Aunt Yuegui arrived before she even showed up, and rushed into the yard in a hurry.

Yang Guihua, who was following behind, had a smile on her face. She took a few steps forward and stuffed a piece of candy into each of their hands.

"Thank you, Aunt Guihua. No, no, we won't eat it!"

After Leng Yan and the others called for help, they stepped back with their hands behind their backs while talking.

The smile on Yang Guihua's face looked like that of a wolf with bad intentions. Seeing this, Leng Yan and others kept refusing.

But Yang Guihua didn't care and couldn't help but praise him:

"Look at these children, they are so handsome. When they grow up, they will definitely have no trouble finding a husband!"

As she spoke, Yang Guihua touched Leng Nianzhi's face with her greasy hands.

Why him? Because he was the youngest and reacted slowly, so he didn't dodge.

But Leng Nianzhi was not someone who could be easily bullied. He immediately pouty his mouth and cried out "wow".

"Hey, why are you crying, kid?"

Yang Guihua was startled and immediately spoke up: "No one is hiring you, and I'm giving you candy, but you're still crying. You have no conscience!"

Leng Nianzhi cried even harder when he heard that. Just as Leng Yan was about to step forward, the door of the kitchen next to him was pushed open from the inside.

"Why are you crying!"

A cold voice came, without a trace of warmth.

Leng Yan followed to see, and saw her uncle Leng Kang standing at the kitchen door with an expressionless face.

I guess there were too many people in the house and my uncle couldn't stay there, so he ran to the kitchen stove to warm himself.

Yang Guihua was frightened by Leng Kang's expressionless face and his aura of being difficult to deal with. Knowing that he had just returned from a murderous battlefield, she couldn't help but shudder.

"What a misunderstanding."

Yang Guihua was so scared that she raised her hands to indicate that she meant no harm, but Leng Nianzhi, as a son, was not afraid of his father and threw himself into Leng Kang's arms in a few steps.

Yang Guihua was afraid that Leng Nianzhi would complain, and thinking about why she came today, she laughed dryly, pulled Aunt Yuegui aside, and called her children to go into the house.

She had just heard the voices in the house. When she opened the curtain and walked in, she saw many villagers standing or sitting in the house.

"Hey, everyone is here, Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"

Yang Guihua walked into the room with a familiar manner, walked forward with a smile, skillfully grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the plate on the kang table, and started to crackle them.

"Oh, Cang'er's mother, the material of your new clothes is really good. It must have cost a lot of money!"

As she spoke, Yang Guihua pushed away a woman sitting on the edge of the kang with her butt, and sat firmly in her place.

"It didn't cost much. It's Chinese New Year now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent that much money!"

Zhang Cui Niang pretended not to hear her ill intentions, waved her hand, and turned to the Leng Su and Leng Huai people beside her and said:

"Su Jie'er Huai Ge'er, hurry up and pour a glass of water for your sister-in-law and the others. You have been talking nonstop since you came in. You must be thirsty now."

"Yes, yes, yes, remember to add some brown sugar, we should drink something sweet during the New Year!"

When Yang Guihua saw Zhang Cuiniang waving her hand in a low-key manner, she was secretly pouting. Now when she heard what she said, she spoke quickly without being polite at all.

As she spoke, her eyes moved around, and finally her gaze inadvertently fell on the silver hairpin on Zhang Cuiniang's head.

Afterwards, she looked around the room calmly again. In terms of dress, no one in the room could compare to Zhang Cuiniang.

The only person who was dressed better than Zhang Cuiniang was Chen Yueshu, who was sitting on the kang by the window, embroidering with her head down.

I heard that this person is a lady from a prominent family in the capital, and that she is well-fed, well-dressed, and even though she doesn't often hang out in the village, there's plenty of gossip about her.

Everyone said that Leng Kang was extremely lucky, as a soldier from a humble family could marry a girl from a wealthy family. The key point was that the girl was well-behaved and had a good temper, and no one knew how much subsidy she had given to the Leng family.

Seeing this, Yang Guihua wanted to strike up a conversation and approached Chen Yueshu several times to talk, but she never found a chance.

"Sister-in-law, drink some water."

At this time Leng Su brought over a few bowls of brown sugar water and handed one of them over.

Although Yang Guihua's attitude was unpleasant, it was also very impolite to ask for brown sugar water right away.

But the water poured for other villagers just now was all brown sugar water, so Leng Su didn't want to favor one over the other and leave any room for gossip.

As she spoke, Leng Su handed the bowl over. Seeing Yang Guihua reaching out to take it, she was about to take her hand back, but Yang Guihua actually grabbed her wrist first.

"Oh my, Su has become more and more beautiful recently. Look at her cute little face. It's really adorable!"
