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

Since they were just going for a trip, Jiang Xiaohe asked Zhang Fu to borrow an ox cart from Uncle Li in the village and gave him a hundred dollars.

"Mom, we are not in a hurry now. We have already bought the meat. It is so hot today and it won't be kept for two days. Let's make the buns first so we can take them with us on the road."

Wang Qiuxia nodded and turned to go to the kitchen to busy herself.

To be honest, when Chen Xiuquan and Wang Dayi heard that there was meat and dumplings to be made, they started to salivate.

Jiang Xiaohe began to sort out the wild onions and leeks that Zhang Fu had cut.

Chen Xiuquan also hurried over to help. Wang Dayi was also unable to sit still. Seeing that there was not much water left in the water tank in the yard, he picked up a bucket and went to the backyard to fetch water.

After fetching water, he helped Wang Qiuxia light a fire. While doing so, he couldn't help but sigh: "When Dashan left last time, the situation at your home was very different from what it is now."

While chopping the meat, Wang Qiuxia said truthfully: "Thanks to Xiao He."

"Nephew's wife?"

Wang Qiuxia nodded.

Then he recounted what had happened at home over the past month.

"If it weren't for Xiao He, our family wouldn't be in the good situation we have now."

After listening to this, Wang Dayi nodded slightly and said, "Well, I think the one who is in charge of this family now is my nephew's wife."

Wang Qiuxia had a smile on her face: "Xiao He is a good head of the family. My husband and I both agreed."

Wang Dayi didn't say anything. This was his sister's family matter and he couldn't say anything.

Wang Qiuxia asked him, "Brother, such a big thing happened at home, have you looked for me?"

They both have an older sister.

Wang Dayi hesitated and said nothing.

Wang Qiuxia understood that her eldest sister's family was not easy either. The most important thing was that her eldest sister was not like her who had parents-in-law to take care of her. Her eldest sister had a troublesome mother-in-law who was very powerful. Her eldest brother probably understood that her eldest sister had a difficult time and was too embarrassed to ask her to borrow money.

Zhang Fu came back, driving Uncle Li's ox cart, and gave Jiang Xiaohe a lot of copper coins: "I only spent fifty coins, and half is left."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded and put the money away.

Chen Xiuqun was shocked when she saw this scene. It turned out that this nephew's wife was the head of the family...

Two baskets of steamed buns were steamed in the pot. Wang Qiuxia put the buns in a cloth bag and added some water. They had to travel at night tonight.

On the other side, Zhang Fu went to Zhang Quan's family next door and told them that their family was going out and asked them to help look after the house.

Zhang Quan asked a few more questions, and when he heard that something happened at his sister-in-law's family, he immediately asked how they could help.

Zhang Fu briefly explained the matter. Zeng Hua, who was listening, immediately pushed Zhang Daniu out and said, "Brother, let Daniu go with you. Otherwise, what will you do if something happens to your group on the way?"

Zhang Fu thought about it and felt that it made sense. This group of people were either old or women, and they all had no strength.

Zeng Hua added, "And big brother, you guys are going so far, and it's exhausting, why don't you just leave Chuan'er at our house, and let Da Niu and I take care of him, so that he doesn't have to go with you and cause you trouble."

Zhang Fu responded and turned back.

Seeing Zhang Fu coming back with Zhang Daniu behind him, Jiang Xiaohe was a little surprised, but after listening to Zhang Fu's explanation, she felt that her uncle and aunt were thoughtful. She quickly carried Zhang Chuan out of the house and scooped a bowl of rice to send over.

......

The group set off in a ox cart.

As the family walked, Wang Qiuxia handed out buns to everyone.

"Aunt, I don't need it. I had already eaten when I came out."

Wang Qiuxia forced it into his hand: "Take it! There's still a long way to go!"

It took two hours to drive the ox cart to Wang Qiuxia's parents' home, Wangjiawan! Fortunately, the moon was full tonight, otherwise the road would be unclear.

It took two hours to drive the ox cart. I think Wang Dayi and Chen Xiuquan must have walked for a whole day during the day.

When they got home, Wang Dayi called out softly, "Hongwa, little girl!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two doors opened and two people ran out of the room. Not long after, the old man's voice came from another room: "Is Dayi back?"

Wang Dayi immediately walked to the door and replied in a low voice: "Dad and Mom, Xiuqun and I are back, and my younger sister and brother-in-law are here with us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of an old man coughing was heard in the room, and it seemed that he was a little excited.

Wang Qiuxia hurried forward and the door opened from the outside.

Although there was moonlight, I still couldn't see the person's face clearly.

Wang Qiuxia cried out in a choked voice: "Dad, Mom!"

Then he hugged one of them.

The old man choked with tears and said, "How long have you been away from home, kid?"

The greetings during the meeting made Jiang Xiaohe see the simplicity and innocence of this family, which was something she had never experienced in her previous life.

After the greetings, Wang Qiuxia quickly took out the buns from the bag and gave one to each of the two elderly people and Hongwa and Xiaoya.

The weather is hot now, and the buns are kept in the bag, so they are still some hot.

Xiao Ya took a bite and tasted the meat, and her eyes lit up.

"Milk, there's meat, there's meat!"

The old man was reluctant to eat it in the first place, and when he heard that there was meat, he was even more reluctant.

"Why are you giving us two old guys such precious things to eat!" After saying that, he hurriedly wanted to return it...

This look is exactly the same as the look Wang Dayi had when he drank the sugar water.

Wang Qiuxia: ....

It took a long time of persuasion before the old man finally ate it.

In the yard, the moonlight shone on everyone. When Jiang Xiaohe saw the two old people looking up, tears welled up in her eyes.

It was getting late, so Chen Xiuquan arranged for everyone to stay. However, the house was too small, with only three bedrooms, so the whole family had to squeeze in. Fortunately, it was summer and not cold at night. Zhang Daniu and Zhang Fu simply pulled a straw mat and slept in the main room, Jiang Xiaohe and Xiao Ya squeezed in, and Wang Qiuxia slept with Chen Xiuquan.

After traveling for such a long time, everyone was already tired. As soon as Jiang Xiaohe got on the bed, she fell asleep.

The little girl tried to get up on tiptoe, but still woke up Jiang Xiaohe. She said apologetically, "Cousin, it's still early. You should sleep a little longer."

Xiao Ya said this, got out of bed and walked out the door in a few steps.

Jiang Xiaohe looked out the window and saw that it was only dimly lit outside.

I turned over and couldn't fall asleep. Unconsciously, I missed Zhang Chuan. Normally, I could see the baby when I woke up, but this time I didn't see him, and I missed him a lot.

Since she couldn't sleep, she got up.

I saw that almost everyone in the house was awake except the old man.

Wang Dayi was fetching water, Zhang Daniu was helping to chop wood, while Wang Qiuxia and Chen Xiuquan were busy in the kitchen. Xiaoya was still young and was helping to light the fire.

But I didn’t see Wang Hong.

Jiang Xiaohe was about to go and help, but Chen Xiuqun saw that she had also gotten up, so he quickly called Xiaoya, "Hurry up and pour some hot water for cousin sister-in-law, so that she can wash up."

The little girl quickly stood up from the stove door and went to get the washbasin.

Jiang Xiaohe quickly said, "No, no, aunt, I can do it myself."

She carried the basin to fetch water. Just as she reached the yard, she saw Wang Hong coming back from outside with some fresh corns in her hand.

He glanced at Jiang Xiaohe, nodded slightly, and took the corn to the kitchen.
