Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

The people in Taohua Village understood as soon as they heard it, but now that the people had been sent to Yushi Village, the matter was a foregone conclusion and there was no point in saying anything.

After seeing off the elders of Taohua Village, Lan Qiyan turned around and looked at the six idiots behind him.

"Are you the sons of my husband whom I have never met and whom I will never meet again?"

The six children nodded and said in unison, "Hello, mother."

Lan Qiyan retreated again and again. Not to mention that the original owner was not very old, even she, a modern person, was only 23 years old and had been single since birth.

This person suddenly traveled through time and space to become a mother, painlessly carrying six children. Who could bear it?

The six children were a little nervous and she didn't look very happy.

As the eldest, Yuze spoke first, "Mom, do you hate us?"

Hate?

Lan Qiyan looked at the kids in front of him. He didn't hate them at all, but he just felt that his situation was really bad.

But she managed to control her emotions a little and smiled, "Hello, my name is Lan Qiyan, Lan for blue, Qi for seven, and Yan for language."

The leading boy said, "Hello, mother. I am the oldest, my name is Yuze, I am twelve years old, and this is the second oldest, Yuxiu, I am ten years old."

"Hello, mother."

Lan Qiyan nodded.

Yuze went on to introduce the remaining four, namely Yuzhen, nine years old, Yuqi, eight years old, and Yumian and Yulin twins, who are seven years old this year!

All six children shouted in unison, "Mom, please come in."

Lan Qiyan was a little frightened for a moment, she couldn't bear to be called mother.

But looking at the crumbling door, I walked in and thought, why is it so poor?

Yuze led Lan Qiyan all the way to the east room and saw an old woman lying on the bed. "Mom, this is grandma."

The old man on the bed waved, "Qi Yan, kid, come here."

Lan Qiyan walked over instinctively, but she could clearly feel the emotions left by the original owner. Did they know each other before?

The old man stretched out his dry hands and took Lan Qiyan's hand, "Child, the last time I saw you was when your grandmother brought you back. You were seven years old that year, and you looked fair and clean.

We were joking that you and my old son would form a family.

I didn’t expect that my words would come true. We are a family today, but it’s a pity that my good son is gone.

Don't blame me, kid. After your mother passed away, your grandmother became depressed and passed away soon after.

Before leaving, he told me that if I was having a hard time, I would definitely help me.

My child, I can't do anything. Your stepmother and father praise you so much that you kill them. If you continue to make trouble, you will not only ruin your reputation.

I had no choice but to pawn my bracelet and give the silver to your stepmother before she would let you go.

I just didn't expect her to publicize it as giving money away without paying. Even if you get married, she will ruin your reputation once."

Lan Qiyan really didn't expect that there was such a connection here. The old lady really wanted to save the original owner.

The old lady looked up at Yuze and said, "Xiaoze, take your brothers to the cellar to dig some sweet potatoes. Grandma has something to tell your mother."

Yuze sensibly took his brothers out, and the old lady touched the purse on her body and handed it to Lan Qiyan, "Child, my son An is missing and his life is unknown.

The marriage certificate and the divorce certificate are both here, along with five taels of silver.

Although these six children were sent back by Zi'an's friends, they are not Zi'an's own flesh and blood.

But they are all poor children, I just hope you will treat them well after I die.

Why don't you wait until they can support themselves before leaving?

There's no need to raise it too big, just have something to eat before you leave, okay!"

At first glance, Lan Qiyan thought this old lady was so naive.

Why should she believe that Lan Qiyan in front of her was a good person just based on her memories from a few years ago or the request of her friends?

If it were the original owner, she would definitely take these things and abandon the six children and run away.

But then again, the old lady had no choice but to entrust these children to a man who had just married into the family.

Fortunately, Lan Qiyan believed that he still had a trace of morality and conscience.

As a prospective veterinarian, she chose this profession because of her love for small animals.

Although it is easy to find a job, the main reason is that she is kind-hearted.

This is getting off topic, so she quickly said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of the children.

No matter how you live your life, it’s your life. Since this is my life, I have to live it to the fullest.”

"Good, good boy, you have great ambition. If you can say that, I will feel at ease even if I die."

Lan Qiyan waved his hands quickly, "Please don't say that. You must live well, otherwise how can I control these children?"

"They are all very obedient and not naughty at all. If you are too busy, Xiaoze Xiaoxiu and the others can help."

Lan Qiyan turned his head and glanced at the tattered door. The children were listening at the door.

"You guys come in."

Yuze came in with his brothers, "Mother."

"Everyone, please find a place to sit down. Let's not hide anything. Tell us what's going on at home right now.

For example, how much land do we have, and how much grain do we have? It's autumn now, so tell me about the grain, your clothes, including the house, the door, the kitchen, and so on.

Oh, and please tell me about your grandmother’s health condition.”

Yuze stood up directly, and Lan Qiyan looked up, "Sit down, look up and your neck is a little tired."

Yuze immediately found a lame stool and sat down, "Mom, when my uncle and his family divided the family property, they only gave us one acre of medium-quality land and one acre of inferior land.

Both fields have two harvests a year. The middle-grade field is planted with sweet potatoes, and the inferior field at the foot of the mountain is also planted with sweet potatoes. In a year..."

Lan Qiyan interrupted him directly, "Only two acres of land were allocated? Are there any other lands?"

"And these two thatched houses." Yu Ze answered respectfully.

Lan Qiyan had read history before. Although this was a fictional dynasty, the grain output was probably about the same, at most 350 kilograms per acre.

But they can't even afford a piece of medium-sized land, and they have to pay taxes. Have they been surviving on potatoes in the past few years?

Looking at these two thatched houses, Du Fu would have cried if he came here, because there are only a few straws left on the roofs.

"How much land did the Yu family have before the division?" she asked again.

"Thirty-eight acres, of which twenty acres are of the best quality, eleven acres are of the middle quality, and seven acres are of the worst quality."

"Yanyan, these were all bought with the money Zi'an earned, but those damn people only gave us two acres while your father was seriously ill."

Lan Qiyan nodded and said, "Kids, we have a heavy task and a lot of pressure."

Although it was the first time they heard their mother say such new words, they were able to guess the meaning. Anyway, it was not easy to deal with.

Lao Qiyan gestured to Yuze to continue.
