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

They went to eat, and Zhang Fu drove the ox cart and took everyone back to Wangjiawan.

On the way back, everyone's mood was completely different from when they came.

On the ox cart, Chen Xiuqun held Jiang Xiaohe's hand and said, "I, your aunt, have never met you before, and I didn't know you were so smart."

Jiang Xiaohe blushed.

Wang Qiuxia smiled and said, "Stop praising me. You're blushing."

Everyone on the ox cart was laughing.

Wang Dayi sighed, "To be honest, if my niece-in-law hadn't taught me how to say those words to Hongwa in the government office today, we would have knelt there without being able to say a word."

"That's right! You don't know, the head of the pavilion looked so majestic, but I was trembling all over when I knelt there."

Wang Qiuxia nodded: "This is a good result anyway. Hongwa is the only boy in your family. After this incident, you must remind him to be careful when he is outside and not be like Dashan in my family."

When she said this, Wang Qiuxia's eyes turned red.

Chen Xiuqun also hurried to comfort her: "Okay, little aunt, Dashan's child is also good. I hope he can be reborn into a good family in the next life! But you still have Xiaohe and Chuan'er, so there is still hope in this life."

Wang Qiuxia hummed.

When they arrived at the village, Xiaoya had been waiting at the intersection for a long time. When she saw them coming back and didn't see her brother, she immediately burst into tears: "Mom, is my brother in jail?"

Chen Xiuqun hurriedly tried to comfort her: "No, no! Your brother went out to have dinner with his friends."

Wang Xiaoya cried even harder, thinking that Chen Xiuquan was lying to her.

Jiang Xiaohe squatted down and explained to her: "Xiaoya, my cousin's wife said she would bring your brother back, and she will definitely bring him back. Your brother really went to have dinner with his friends. If you don't believe me, wait until we have dinner, and he will be back."

"Really?"

"real!"

As Jiang Xiaohe spoke, she held Xiaoya in her arms and sat on the ox cart together.

When they got home, the two old people were already looking forward to it.

Seeing that they had returned but Hongwa had not, the two old people had the same thought as Wang Xiaoya. Not only did the light in their eyes disappear, they also lowered their heads in pain. It was not until Chen Xiuquan explained it again that they raised their heads again and had hope of living.

The two old people gave birth to a son, Wang Dayi, and two daughters. Wang Dayi, like them, also gave birth to a son, Wang Hong, and two daughters, Da Ya and Xiao Ya. If anything happened to Wang Hong, their bloodline would be cut off, and what hope would the two old people have?

Zhang Fu and Wang Dayi went to collect grass to feed the cow. The cow had been running with them for almost a day, but it hadn't been given any grass to eat.

There was not much food at home, but Wang Shan's family had just compensated them with silver, so Chen Xiuqun took out a dozen copper coins and said, "Little girl, go to your aunt He's house next door and buy some fine rice."

When the little girl heard about buying rice, her eyes lit up and she went there quickly.

There was nothing to entertain at home, so Chen Xiuqun thought of the only chicken in the backyard and ran to the two old people and asked, "Dad and Mom, my aunt and her family helped us a lot today, and Wang Shuisheng and his family even compensated us with money. I wanted to buy some meat in town, but the butcher shop was closed. Do you think I can kill the hen in the backyard to entertain them?"

The hen was the only chicken in the family. Originally, they wanted to use it to hatch chicks, but now there was really no other way. After all, Wang Qiuxia and her family had helped their family so much. They could entertain outsiders in the town. Could it be that their own people would have to eat coarse food when they returned home? Anyway, it wouldn't cost much to buy this chick.

Wang Fusheng nodded: "Yes, you should, go boil the water and I will kill it."

Chen Xiuqun smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Dad."

Bai Yulan looked at it, stood up from the stool and said, "Then I'll go to the backyard and pick some beans and cook them with the chicken."

The whole family was busy, and soon, a delicious lunch was ready.

The family hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and when they smelled the meat, everyone was greedy, especially Xiao Ya, who was drooling while making the fire.

Chen Xiuquan was a capable person. She scraped the chicken fat and used it to stir-fry two vegetarian dishes.

By the time the meal started, it was already past noon and everyone was starving.

At the dinner table, Wang Dayi said with emotion: "Today is all thanks to my niece-in-law!"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said nothing.

Wang Dayi raised his chopsticks and said, "Everyone, eat quickly, eat quickly."

Everyone then started to eat.

After lunch, everyone was very full. Just as they finished their meal, Zhang Daniu and Wang Hong came back.

The first thing Wang Hong did when she came back was to express her gratitude to Jiang Xiaohe, and she even kowtowed to him.

Jiang Xiaohe quickly pulled the person up: "What are you doing? I am your cousin's wife, we are of the same generation, you must not kneel to me, it will shorten my life."

When Wang Hong heard her say this, she stood up.

"If it weren't for my cousin's wife today, my parents and I would have been bullied by them."

Chen Xiuquan nodded, and Wang Dayi lowered his head slightly. After all, he understood that others were bullying him because his family was small.

Jiang Xiaohe said: "If I don't want others to bully me, I must be strong! Only when we are strong, others will not dare to bully us."

These words were heard by everyone present, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Originally, Jiang Xiaohe planned to go back in the afternoon, but Bai Yulan held Wang Qiuxia and was reluctant to let her go. Jiang Xiaohe thought, in that case, it would be better to rest for another night and leave early tomorrow morning.

Wang Shuisheng and his family returned in the afternoon, but not long after they returned, a quarrel broke out at home, and the whole village could hear it.

Listening to the noisy noise, it seemed that the three relatives who gave false testimony for Wang Shuisheng today came to the house and asked Wang Shuisheng's family to pay for the medical expenses, but Xu Ruhua refused and scolded those relatives at home.

Because of this, his two brothers and sister-in-law knew that the family had spent five taels of silver on Wang Shuisheng. Five taels of silver, what a concept, was enough for the family to eat and drink for two years, so they also made a fuss at home, and the two sisters-in-law even took their babies back to their parents' home...

The two sons felt that Xu Ruhua was partial to them. In addition, their daughter-in-law had returned to her parents' home with her child, so they quarreled at home. Before the quarrel was over, the people from the clinic came to the door again. Xu Ruhua felt overwhelmed...

Because Wang Shuisheng's home was not far from theirs, Chen Xiuqun heard all the noise. Thinking of the humiliation and contempt he had endured from Xu Ruhua over the past half month, he snorted coldly, "You deserve it!"

After saying that, he went back to chatting and laughing with Wang Qiuxia and Bai Yulan.

Jiang Xiaohe was really bored sitting in the yard. She couldn't embroider, sew shoe soles, and didn't want to chat about gossip with them. So she thought about going to the fields and the foot of the mountain to see if she could find any new business opportunities.

"Xiaoya, how about you take your cousin's wife around the village?"

Wang Xiaoya jumped up immediately: "Okay, okay."

Chen Xiuqun smiled and told her, "Just take your cousin's wife around here, don't go too far."

"I know mother."

Jiang Xiaohe said hello to Wang Qiuxia and the others, then followed Wang Xiaoya out.
