After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Everyone was waiting for Li Taohua to apologize to Jiang Xiaohe and his family.

Li Taohua looked at Chen Guifang silently.

Chen Guifang looked unhappy, clenched her fists, and finally said unhappily: "Apologize to them!"

Li Taohua knew that her mother had no other choice, so she knelt down, kowtowed three times to Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu, and shouted three times: "I was wrong, I was a bad mouth!"

After doing all this, without waiting for Jiang Xiaohe and the others to call her up, she turned around and ran away crying.

Some people in the village still sympathized with her, while others felt that she deserved it because she couldn't live a good life but had to gossip.

Chen Guifang looked at Jiang Xiaohe with her eyes almost spitting fire, but she didn't say anything in the end. She turned around and left with He Qing.

Seeing that everyone had left, the village chief asked everyone to disperse.

In the end, only Jiang Xiaohe's family and Zeng Hua were left in the yard.

"Second Aunt, thank you for your help today."

Zeng Hua smiled and waved his hands: "We are all family, so we should not talk about different things. But today, Li Taohua is really a piece of shit. Okay, I won't say anything else. I'm going home to hang my clothes."

"Her second aunt, please sit for a while." Wang Qiuxia asked her to stay.

Zeng Hua smiled, waved his hand, and turned back.

Jiang Xiaohe looked at Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu at this time: "Dad and Mom, you won't blame me. You want an apology, not food and silver."

The two old men shook their heads.

"We don't want her stuff. We country folk value a clean life. You did the right thing!"

Hearing Wang Qiuxia's words, Jiang Xiaohe felt a little warmer in the heart, and Zhang Fu turned around and went to the backyard to tidy up his private plot.

Jiang Xiaohe and the others hung up their clothes to hang up.

After a simple lunch at noon, Jiang Xiaohe felt a little tired, so she went to rest. The cicadas outside the house kept chirping, disturbing her and unable to sleep. The weather was hot, so she took a cattail leaf fan and fanned herself, not only for herself, but also for the baby.

Outside, Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu probably thought she was asleep, so they started chatting in the yard.

Zhang Fu and Wang Qiuxia were chatting, and Zhang Fu said with emotion: "Old woman, fortunately you are on the side of me and my daughter-in-law."

Wang Qiuxia comforted him: "What are you talking about? I have been married to you for decades. How could I not know you? I know very well what kind of person you are. When they said this, I knew they were wronging you."

Zhang Fu patted her hands and felt much better.

Jiang Xiaohe felt relieved after hearing this. She was actually afraid that Wang Qiuxia would think too much and have some grudges in her heart. But fortunately, she was a sensible person.

And because of this incident, Li Taohua might not come to trouble her for a long time.

Thinking of this, he fell asleep.

In the evening, the farmers had a simple meal. Wang Qiuxia made corn pancakes and ate them with boiled pickled vegetable water, which was the family's meal for the night.

The family was enjoying the cool air in the yard.

Jiang Xiaohe held Zhang Chuan who had just finished feeding and said, "Dad, Mom, the market is the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow, I want to go up to the mountain to get some wild fruits and bring them back to the town to sell. I think there are not many grains of rice left in the rice jar. I will use the money I earn from selling them to buy more."

Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu felt a little embarrassed. Jiang Xiaohe had only been married for over a year, and they were already letting her worry about these matters at home. They felt somewhat indebted.

"Then mom will go with you tomorrow."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "Okay, we'll bring Chuan'er with us then."

The next morning, the family got up early and went up the mountain earlier because it was not so hot.

Zhang Fu was chopping wood as usual. Jiang Xiaohe carried a backpack, and Wang Qiuxia carried a basket and carried Zhang Chuan on her back.

The villagers saw them going into the mountains. When they passed by Wu Youhua's door, she asked, "Going into the mountains again?"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "Isn't there a market tomorrow? I'm thinking of picking some wild vegetables and selling them in town."

When Wu Youhua heard this, she quickly asked, "Why is this wild vegetable so delicious?"

"Aunt Wu, aren't you joking? Wild vegetables are not popular at all. It's just that we can't afford to eat at home, so we thought we'd try our luck. The last time we picked some, we only made a few cents after selling them for a day."

Wu Youhua smiled awkwardly and said nothing more, thinking, don’t you have fish at home?

But when I think about the fact that wild vegetables can only be sold for a few coins, what's the point of wasting effort! It's better to stay at home and do more work. When the grain harvest is better, the extra food can be sold.

When they got to the mountain, Jiang Xiaohe ran towards the place. Zhang Fu pointed to the mountain and told them two more places. She and Wang Qiuxia squatted on the ground and picked up all the wild sweet potatoes.

Wang Qiuxia looked at the bright red fruit and couldn't help saying, "I used to think that fruits grew on trees, but never thought they could grow on the ground. This thing has been growing here for many years, and we didn't even realize that there are so many good things hidden under it."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "Mom, I discovered it by accident as well."

Looking at the backpack full of wild sweet potatoes and the basket full of wild sweet potatoes, Jiang Xiaohe felt that they were all silver.

As long as she can make some money with these, she can make money from money...

Wang Qiuxia and I picked a lot of wild vegetables and wild onions to cover it with.

"When the time comes, we can take these wild vegetables back and sort them out. We can sell them together tomorrow and make some money."

Wang Qiuxia nodded in agreement, thinking that her daughter-in-law was both hardworking and smart.

Zhang Fu had also bundled up the firewood, and the group prepared to go home. It was already noon when they got home.

Fortunately, it was hot at noon and I didn’t meet anyone.

While sorting wild sweet potatoes, Jiang Xiaohe said, "Mom, if we can keep this hidden for one day, we can earn one more day's money."

Wang Qiuxia naturally knew what Jiang Xiaohe meant.

"Don't worry, Xiao He. Mom won't tell anyone."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and nodded, sorted out a bunch of wild vegetables, and asked Wang Qiuxia to fry a plate for lunch.

In the afternoon, Zhang Fu went to the fields, and the two of them packed up these things at home. Jiang Xiaohe tied the wild vegetables into bunches, which looked beautiful.

"Mom, tell Dad not to go sell firewood tomorrow. We have to take the fish to town to sell, otherwise the fish will all die if we wait too long."

Wang Qiuxia nodded in agreement: "Okay."

The next day, the family got up even earlier. There were a lot of heavy things with which to carry today, so they walked slowly. If they got up late, they would have dispersed by the time they reached the town market.

The sun rises early in the summer, but when their family went out, the sky was still gray.

When Jiang Xiaohe got up in the morning, she fed Zhang Chuan milk. After Wang Qiuxia got up, she used the last bit of rice in the house to make some rice soup so that Zhang Chuan would have something to eat when Jiang Xiaohe was not around during the day.

He baked two corn cakes for Jiang Xiaohe and Zhang Fu, and told them: "If you get hungry in town, don't be reluctant to spend the money you earn from selling them. Buy two buns instead."

"Don't worry, mother. I know it clearly in my heart."

Jiang Xiaohe carried wild sweet potatoes on her back and held a basket of wild vegetables in her hand, and then she set off with Zhang Fu.

It was because she grew up in the mountains when she was a child, otherwise she would not be able to carry such a heavy object.

Her clothes were soaked with sweat along the way, and when she arrived in the town, the sun had just risen in the sky.

Hurrying back to the stall they had been at last time, Jiang Xiaohe called out to Zhang Fu, "Dad, let's put our products together today so they can sell better."

Zhang Fu nodded and listened to her.
