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

When Wang Qiuxia heard that it was Li Taohua's family, she immediately didn't want to ask: "Forget it, what good can come from their quarrel? It's their own quarrel, let's eat!"

After saying that, he called out to Zhang Fu to clean up the table.

She went to the kitchen to serve the food.

They spent the whole morning cleaning the pig offal. Wang Qiuxia even took half a pound of flour to knead it. After it was cooked, it didn't smell like anything. And because there was some pork fat left over from yesterday, they were willing to add some oil when making this meal at noon, so the meal tasted even more delicious.

Zeng Hua also brought some wine from his home, hoping that these grown men would have a good drink.

At the dinner table, the family was talking and laughing as if it was New Year’s Eve.

Jiang Xiaohe took out a hundred yuan of money and handed it to Zeng Hua: "Second Aunt, this is the money from selling fruit today, please keep it."

Seeing that it was sold for a hundred yuan, Zeng Hua's eyes almost disappeared with laughter: "Oh, that thing is so valuable!" Then he took the money and put it in his pocket, saying: "Next time we go to the market, we will go to the mountain to pick more."

Jiang Xiaohe just smiled, and Zhang Daniu said unhappily, "Mom, this thing is worthless now. Don't you know that the people in the village today..."

Then he recounted how He Xiu and his gang had snatched business from the town today.

The people at the table were very angry after hearing this.

Wang Qiuxia said, "Why did you come back so late today? It's really hard for you."

Jiang Xiaohe didn't care: "Although we came back late, we didn't suffer any loss."

Zhang Daniu glanced at her.

Zeng Hua also said angrily: "Next time I see that woman He Xiu, I will tear her skin apart."

Jiang Xiaohe comforted them, "Second Aunt, Mom, it's okay. At worst we can stop doing this business in the future." Besides, the growing season for wild sweet potatoes is almost over.

After saying that, he put some food in both of their bowls and told them to stop talking and eat as well.

After the meal, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

After dinner, Wang Qiuxia cleaned up the grapes that Jiang Xiaohe had picked yesterday. After all, it was inconvenient for her to work with her hands now.

Jiang Xiaohe looked at Zeng Hua washing the dishes with a gloomy look on her face, and took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong with Second Aunt?"

Zeng Hua treated her as a family member, so he did not hide the truth from her: "Today, the matchmaker sent a message saying that she had found a good match for Daniu, and asked us to pick a day to have a good look."

"That's a good thing, Second Aunt should be happy!"

Zeng Hua sighed, "But the matchmaker said that the woman wants a lot of gifts! I'm afraid your uncle and I can't afford that much."

This... Jiang Xiaohe had no say. After all, Zhang Dashan spent a lot of money to marry the original owner.

Zeng Hua continued, "When you gave me the money just now, I was thinking that the fruit could make money. If I went to the market a few more times, I would definitely be able to make some money, and then I wouldn't have to worry about the bride price for this big guy. But I didn't know that these people in the village have no morals!" Zeng Hua was quite angry at the end.

It turned out to be the case.

"Does Second Aunt want to make money?"

Zeng Hua nodded quickly and said with a wry smile: "Of course I wouldn't miss it, but we farmers have to work hard in the fields, and the taxes from the court are heavy. We can hardly save much money throughout the year!" He sighed at the end.

Jiang Xiaohe thought for a while and said, "If Second Aunt wants to make money, I have a way, but it's a bit tiring to make money. It depends on whether Second Aunt is willing to do it."

As soon as she said this, Zeng Hua quickly washed the last bowl and wiped his hands on his apron: "Tell me what method is there. We farmers are most afraid of fatigue! What kind of hardship and fatigue have we not experienced? Have we not suffered it?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "I remember there are some mulberry trees planted in front of Second Aunt's house?"

Zeng Hua nodded and said, "In the past few years, I wanted to make some money by raising silkworms, but I never thought that people would not buy our silk, and we sold it at a low price in the end. I haven't done it in recent years. Could it be that the money you mentioned means raising silkworms?" Zeng Hua looked a little disappointed.

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head and said, "How about Second Aunt go back and pick some mulberry leaves, and I'll come over later to teach you how to make a dish. Although this dish is simple to make, if you take it to the town to sell, I'm afraid you can make some money."

When she said that, Zeng Hua was a little confused. What could be eaten with these mulberry leaves?

But he still nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then Auntie is waiting for you at home, so don't say anything wrong."

After saying that, he took Zhang Da Nv back first.

Zhang Daniu and Zhang Quan were still talking to Zhang Fu.

Jiang Xiaohe listened to them and heard them say: We have to go to the quarry or something in a few days.

She went to look at the grapes in the shade.

Seeing that the grapes had dried, he turned around and carried a jar of wine over.

Wang Qiuxia hurriedly stopped her: "The wound on your hand hasn't healed yet."

"Mom, it's okay. These grapes will go bad if we don't put them in the jar."

Wang Qiuxia still snatched the jar away: "You tell me how to do it, I'll do it, I'll do it."

Jiang Xiaohe first instructed her to wash her hands with soap nuts and then dry them with a clean towel before allowing her to touch the grapes.

"Mom, put these grapes in the jar."

As he said this, he washed the rolling pin, wiped it dry and took it over.

"This jar is enough. Use this to crush the grapes."

"Really crush it?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded, and Wang Qiuxia started to work.

Zhang Daniu saw it and came over: "Aunt, cousin, what are you doing?"

"Making wine!" Jiang Xiaohe answered directly.

"Cousin's wife also knows how to make wine?"

"It's just a mess."

Zhang Daniu: Why does it feel like my cousin’s wife is kind of... cold towards him?

Wang Qiuxia laughed awkwardly: "Daniu, when will you return to the quarry?"

He didn't want to go back at all now, but when he thought about what his mother had just told him to do, that he should go and see her tomorrow, he wanted to go back tonight.

"a few more days."

Wang Qiuxia smiled and nodded, praising him for his ability. Zhang Daniu touched the back of his head embarrassedly.

Then Wang Qiuxia focused on her work and stopped talking. After she had crushed the entire jar, Jiang Xiaohe quickly sealed the jar.

Then another jar was prepared. Zhang Daniu wanted to help, but Jiang Xiaohe said, "Don't. Your hands are not washed. If you touch this, it will get moldy."

Zhang Daniu was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. Finally, he said, "Then I'll go back first."

Wang Qiuxia smiled and nodded, then glanced at Jiang Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, did Daniu offend you in some way?"

Jiang Xiaohe shook her head: "Mom, don't think too much. I just think that he is his cousin and I am his widow. We should keep a distance between us, otherwise it will be easy for people with ulterior motives to gossip about us."

Wang Qiuxia nodded: "That's right."

However, after she finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Xiaohe again: "Xiaohe, if you think Daniel..."

"Mom, what are you talking about! Don't say these words again in the future. I've said before that I will never get married again in this life. Whether you believe it or not, I have made up my mind anyway."
