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

Wang Qiuxia held Zhang Chuan at the entrance of the village, waiting and hoping.

It wasn't until I saw them appear that I finally felt relieved.

As soon as they saw them, the villagers gathered around.

Wang Qiuxia took Zhang Fu to look at him, then took Jiang Xiaohe to look at him, and nodded with tears in her eyes: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Zhang Quan stood up and asked with concern: "Brother, is the matter resolved?"

Zhang Fu nodded, and Zhang Quan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that it's solved, it's good that it's solved."

The villagers all nodded: "Now that this problem has been solved, we can live a good life from now on."

is not that right?

The villagers were simple and honest people. When they saw that they were fine, they turned around and went back to work in the fields.

Jiang Xiaohe stretched out her hand towards Wang Qiuxia: "Mom, you've been taking care of her for most of the day, let me hold her."

Wang Qiuxia quickly handed the child to her, and the family walked home.

As soon as she got home, Wang Qiuxia hurried to cook. Jiang Xiaohe had eaten a little at Chang's house that day, but Zhang Fu hadn't eaten a single drop of water.

Seeing that the child had fallen asleep, Jiang Xiaohe entered the kitchen and said, "Mom, please cut the meat and fry it."

Wang Qiuxia nodded quickly: "Then go to the backyard and help mom pick some beans, and we'll make a good meal."

After having stewed meat with beans for lunch, Wang Qiuxia made a meal of rice.

Zhang Fu looked at her with some blame, his eyes saying it was such a waste.

It was time for Jiang Xiaohe to speak: "Dad, I'm greedy, I want to eat."

Zhang Fu didn't say anything then.

Jiang Xiaohe wasn't very hungry, and kept picking up vegetables and meat for the two elderly people.

"Eat it yourself too."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and nodded: "I ate it, I ate it."

Then he said on the table: "What my father said in the government office today..."

Zhang Fu looked at her. Wang Qiuxia didn't know what Zhang Fu said, so she just looked at Zhang Fu.

Jiang Xiaohe continued seriously, "I am here to express my attitude to my parents. I know that Dad said that for my own good, but from the day I escaped from my marriage, I made up my mind not to marry again in this life. I will honor you well on behalf of Dashan, take care of you in your old age, and then raise Chuan'er well and make our little family prosperous."

After listening to her, Wang Qiuxia finally understood what she was talking about and was deeply moved.

Putting down the chopsticks, she held Jiang Xiaohe's hand, her eyes moistened: "Daughter-in-law, I know you are a good person, but you are still young. In this life, you will have a hard time just guarding the two of us old people and Chuan'er."

Zhang Fu also nodded: "If your mother and I are gone in the future, it will be more difficult and tiring for you to support this family alone. We are very grateful that you can stay in this family now. If you have other ideas in the future, your mother and I will agree."

Jiang Xiaohe wanted to explain, but saw Wang Qiuxia nodded slightly. Forget it, there was no point in explaining, time would prove everything. Although this body was still very young, her experience in her previous life really made her lose interest in men. Instead of relying on men to live a good life, it is better to rely on herself!

After dinner, the sky gradually darkened. Jiang Xiaohe changed her clothes. She was worried about Zhang Fu and left Chang's house in a hurry today. She forgot to take her clothes with her. She would wash these clothes tomorrow and return them to the owner next time she went to the market.

In the evening, Wang Qiuxia found Jiang Xiaohe and handed her a set of clothes: "I only have two sets of clothes for you. These are the clothes I wore when I was young. See if they fit you. If not, I will alter them for you."

This set of clothes really came as a timely relief. I believe Wang Qiuxia naturally saw that she only had one set of clothes, so she specially found this set of clothes and gave it to her.

Although it is a coarse linen shirt, it’s good to have it.

"Mom, it looks suitable to me!"

"If it suits you, wear it!"

After a sleepless night, Jiang Xiaohe got up early the next morning and went to the river to wash clothes. There were already many people there.

Everyone looked at her, some greeted her, but of course some ignored her.

She randomly found a corner and heard the laundry people gossiping, "Do you know about Li Taohua and Zhang Long's affairs?"

"How could I not know? But now that he's been caught, why is there no follow-up?"

A woman washing clothes, while hitting the clothes with a wooden stick, said with disdain: "Why is there no follow-up! Li Taohua's mother said that Zhang Long has to pay five taels of silver to marry Li Taohua!"

Another woman said, "Chen Guifang is crazy about money! Li Taohua has slept with someone else, and she still wants five taels of silver. She is not a virgin!"

"That's right! That's why Zhang Long won't take the money now!"

"Yes, if I were Zhang Long and could really come up with five taels of silver, wouldn't I marry a virgin girl? But he insisted on marrying Li Taohua, regardless of how old he is."

After saying this, a group of women laughed.

"Anyway, Zhang Long is adamantly refusing to give a penny. It all depends on what Chen Guifang thinks. If she doesn't let her daughter get married, Li Taohua will probably not be able to find a husband!"

"Of course! Who would want a woman with corrupt morals?"

As they spoke, several people laughed sarcastically.

Jiang Xiaohe only listened to this much. When she saw that the clothes were washed, she just stood up and ran into He Qing who was washing clothes with a basin. She thought this woman would go crazy at her, but unexpectedly, she was obedient this time.

As soon as she arrived, the group of women shut up.

After returning home, Jiang Xiaohe hung out the clothes to dry, glanced at Zhang Chuan, said hello to Wang Qiuxia, and went out with her backpack on her back.

Relying solely on the wild sweet potatoes and making money by selling them at market time is not a long-term solution. Moreover, the wild sweet potatoes will not grow again after a period of time. If she wants to live a better life, she must find another way to make a living. She carries a basket on her back and walks around the village to see if she can find another way to make a living. As long as this business can continue, she will sooner or later earn enough money to retire in ancient times!

I ran into Zeng Hua on the road. Zeng Hua was carrying a backpack and picking grass for pigs. "Where are you going, Xiao He?"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and replied, "Just walk around."

Zeng Hua didn't ask any more questions.

According to her memory, Jiang Xiaohe went up the mountain from another road in the village, took out a sickle, and patted the grass. To be honest, she was still a little scared to go up the mountain alone.

When she got to the mountains, she saw some sweet potato leaves. Thinking that she would go to the market tomorrow, she squatted down and picked up a lot of wild sweet potatoes and put them into her backpack.

She hid the backpack and wandered around the mountains, but she didn't dare go deep into the mountains because there were many ferocious beasts there.

From afar, she saw a tree full of fruits. The fruits seemed familiar, but she was not sure. She wanted to pick a few to taste. Before she could touch them, a voice rang out: "This thing is very sour and not delicious at all!"
