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

Lan Qiyan waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, go and have a rest. We don't need your help here. You already know how to do it. Feng Qi and I can take turns."

"I'm fine. I was able to go out to sea when I was pregnant with them, ugh..."

Lan Qiyan hurriedly supported her, "Brother, take your wife back to the room to rest. This is seafood noodles. There are seafood in the pot. Sister-in-law, if you can't smell it, stay away from the pot."

"I can bear it."

"No, go look in the mirror, you look terrible. You didn't even take a break during your pregnancy. When are you going to take a break?"

Lan Qiyan also felt sorry for her. She had already given birth to five children and was in her thirties, yet she still wanted to have another one. No wonder women have short lives, it was all because of giving birth to children.

I don’t know how old I am, whether I am married, or whether I have children.

I feel like a walking corpse every day. All I know is that I have a Taobao space and the memories after waking up.

It's difficult for her, a person with such a blank mind.

As soon as Rou Niang saw her expression, she knew that she was distracted again, "Little sister, take a break. I am full of energy. Ugh..."

Lan Qiyan came to his senses and pushed the man aside, "Brother, stop chopping wood. Take your wife away or she will vomit in my pot soon."

"I'm fine. I'm just lying in bed and feeling bored. I feel uncomfortable if I don't work. Ugh..."

Lan Qiyan was full of black lines on his face. "Sister-in-law, if you vomit again, it will be in my pot. We won't be able to make any money today. Go to the room quickly."

"Let's go, my little sister will let you rest. Don't worry, we can do the work well."

Rouniang was somewhat reluctant. Seeing this, Lan Qiyan put down the rolling pin, washed his hands, and then returned to the room.

After a while, she came out of the room and brought a lot of dark blue cloth. "Sister-in-law, I bought this on the small cargo ship yesterday. Can you make some clothes for the children?"

When Rou Niang saw that there was something to do, she took it with a smile on her face.

Feng Qi gave a thumbs up and said, "Aunt, you are still smart."

"Don't flatter me. Your mother is just afraid of being poor. She wants to work harder so she can earn more. She also wants to earn money to marry you off."

Speaking of marrying a wife, Feng Qi blushed for the first time, "Aunt, you don't know how much money it costs to marry a wife here."

"How much do you need? Five taels at most." She blurted out, and she didn't know why, but the number five taels appeared in her mind.

"Aunt, the minimum amount for a girl to get married is ten taels," Feng Xi added.

Lan Qiyan looked at Old Lady Feng in disbelief, "Mom, do you need so much?"

Old Lady Feng looked at her grandchildren and said, "Yes, you don't know the customs here. Disasters often happen here, and the population loss is too great. We rely on having more children to maintain the prosperity of the clan. Therefore, the betrothal gift for a girl is at least ten taels. For a girl who is good-looking and whose family has many children, fifteen or twenty taels are required."

Lan Qiyan looked at the dough, he earned three coins for each, one ounce of dough was 1000 coins, and three thousand bowls of noodles was enough to marry someone of the lowest quality.

Looking at the four boys in front of her, she felt very sympathetic towards her eldest brother and his wife. Twelve thousand bowls of noodles might be enough to marry her son off to a daughter-in-law.

Although this house is not small, it is a bit shabby and needs some repairs.

If they repair the house, it might be difficult to find a daughter-in-law.

Thinking of this, she felt sympathetic again.

Lan Qiyan really wanted to help them solve this problem, as long as they could earn a hundred taels.

It's easy to say, but they sold for a month and all they earned was only two taels of silver.

Two taels a month, 24 taels a year, and it will take about four years to earn 4 taels.

Slow, too slow. In the second month, she still sold noodles. From the third month, she handed over the noodle stall to Old Lady Feng and Feng Qi, and went out to sea with Feng Nian.

This village is located in the southwest corner of an island. There are 23 villages on the island, but the usable land is limited. The land allocated can only be used to grow vegetables. There are no agricultural crops or cash crops at all.

So the only way to make big money is to catch and sell fish.

On the boundless ocean, Lan Qiyan and his crew's boat was like a piece of duckweed, drifting with the sea breeze, almost shaking out the little food in his stomach and making him vomit.

With Lan Qiyan's help, although Fengqi's fish products are not the largest, the quality is the best and the variety is the most.

Summer passed and autumn came, winter passed and spring came, and Rouniang finally gave birth. No one expected that it was triplets, one girl and two boys.

Rouniang immediately made a decision, which was to adopt these three children directly to Lan Qiyan, just to have a way out in the future.

Lan Qiyan was a little flattered, she really didn't think that way.

If she were adopted, she would need to take care of three babies now. Oh my God, please let her go. She feels that she is still a special person now.

So he directly rejected her kindness, but Rou Niang was not angry.

Since you don't want to adopt them, let these children be nicer to their aunt in the future.

But among the three children, the girl was very special to her.

I have to follow her every day and can't leave her for a single step. I will cry if I leave her.

The crying made her head hurt, so Lan Qiyan ran out. She wanted to be alone and quiet.

At the same time, Yu Xiu, who had been running around outside for a year, had gained nothing.

I walked along the moat directly to the seashore, but there was no clue at all.

Yu Zhen went back and forth several times and inquired in several countries, but still had no clues.

Pei Zhuxuan was very calm, as if she had figured it all out. "Don't be depressed. She just doesn't want to see you."

"No, Yan'er wants to see me, Yan'er wants to see me, don't block me.

Let me go. If you hurt me, I will tell my wife and she will beat you to death.

She will definitely find me. No, I will definitely find her. You guys let me go. I will go find Yan'er.

"Where's Yan'er? Yan'er is in the river. It's cold in the river. Too cold. I'll go get a blanket. I'll go get a blanket." Yu Zian suddenly ran over, sometimes yelling, sometimes talking to himself, acting crazy.

Yuze shouted, "Why didn't you watch him carefully? How could you let him run out? What are you standing there for? Take him away. Remember, don't let my dad hurt himself."

"It's better to lock up the heart than to lock up the person." Bae Joo-hyun said faintly.

"Don't tell me this, shut up! You've provoked him so many times. If you continue to do so, my father won't be able to be saved. Take him away immediately."

"Wait, let him eat something first, and then we can chat with Yuze."

Yuze refused without even thinking about it, and then whispered, "I won't talk to you. If you tell the truth, I'm worried that my father's faith will collapse. If he knew that my mother didn't want to see him at all, do you think he would still be willing to live?"

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Yu Zian who was eating with his hands. Alas, a great general, armed with weapons and horses, drunken on the battlefield, but now he has ended up like this...
