Zeng Hua angrily cursed: "We are from the same village, and not only did he watch us being bullied in town, but he also told you about it."

Zhang Quan said, "Okay, they are kind-hearted. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't know you were bullied in town!"

Zeng Hua made a sound of "Pooh".

Wang Qiuxia finally responded: "You're in town now, where's Chuan'er? Is he home alone?"

Zhang Fu was somewhat speechless: "How could that be? I asked the Wu family next door to help look after it for a while."

After hearing this, Wang Qiuxia finally felt relieved.

When the group arrived at the village, many villagers, especially those who were in town today, stared at them curiously. Some even laughed at them, saying, "Oh, you're back!"

Zeng Hua said unhappily, "Yes, I'm back! What? Are you disappointed?"

The man pursed his lips and said nothing more.

Zeng Hua rolled his eyes: "What a jerk, you can't stand seeing others doing well."

Wang Qiuxia pulled her and said, "Okay, why are you getting angry with these people in the village? You know they are not good people!"

Jiang Xiaohe: ....

When they got home, Wang Qiuxia went to pick up Zhang Chuanchuan and brought him back, while Jiang Xiaohe took out the wine she had bought today from the backpack, and then put all the raspberries that she had washed and dried yesterday into it.

Wang Qiuxia looked at it and asked: "Can this thing be used to make wine?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "If this brewed wine is good for our health, we can keep it for ourselves."

Then she continued, "I had planned to treat my second uncle and second aunt to dinner today, but when I came out of the government office, all the pork was sold out at the market, so I didn't buy any."

"It's okay! At worst, I can just invite them over for dinner next time we go to market!"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded and slapped her head: "Oh, mom, I forgot to buy candy today!"

After she said this, Wang Qiuxia also blamed herself and said, "Look at my brain. I forgot about this matter today and even said I would remind you."

The two looked at each other and suddenly smiled: "Forget it, mother, I'll go to town early tomorrow to buy some back."

The family had a simple lunch and Jiang Xiaohe went back to the house to rest. It was a tiring day.

Wang Qiuxia and Zhang Fu were enjoying the cool under a big tree in the yard. Wang Qiuxia told them everything that happened today and finally sighed, "I think Mr. Chang still has some sincerity towards Xiao He."

"What does Xiao He mean?"

When she heard him ask this, Wang Qiuxia thought about what Jiang Xiaohe had said to her in town today, and she answered directly.

After listening to this, Zhang Fu waved his palm-leaf fan and said, "It's up to my daughter-in-law. Let's not talk about it anymore, no matter what she chooses."

Wang Qiuxia nodded: "I'll listen to you!"

The next morning, Jiang Xiaohe went to the town to buy sugar, and also bought some rice and flour. Now she basically didn't feed Zhang Chuan milk anymore. She hadn't expressed her milk in the past few days, and her milk supply hadn't increased much. So she thought that she would feed him some rice soup in the future, so she bought some more rice.

After shopping, she went straight home.

Seeing Zeng Hua was also at home, he hurriedly greeted her: "Second Aunt is here too."

"Xiao He is back!"

Jiang Xiaohe put down the backpack.

Wang Qiuxia quickly put down the things in her hands and came to help. Jiang Xiaohe said, "It's okay, mother, you talk to Second Aunt, I'll do it!"

Wang Qiuxia then nodded and sat back down.

Jiang Xiaohe went to fetch some water and poured it into a basin, preparing to wash the sour jujubes. While washing, she listened to the two of them talking. They were talking about Li Taohua and Zhang Long's wedding, which seemed to be taking place in the next two days.

Zeng Hua asked: "If they invite you, will you go?"

Wang Qiuxia refused directly: "When Dashan and Xiaohe got married, their family hated our family for marrying someone else, so they didn't come. When their family held ceremonies, our family would not go either."

"If you don't go, then I won't go either. At worst, I won't invite them when Daniu does something for me in the future!"

After Zeng Hua finished speaking, the two sisters-in-law looked at each other and smiled.

Wang Qiuxia asked again, "Why haven't you mentioned the marriage that the matchmaker had arranged for Daniu in the past two days?"

Zeng Hua smiled as he talked about this: "They will meet in the next two days! Sister-in-law, you don't know how grateful I am to Xiao He! Although I have only been doing this business for two days, I have earned more than Daniu and his father did in the quarry in ten days. I thought that when Daniu is satisfied, I will buy two pieces of good cloth, one for the bride to make clothes, and one for Daniu to make a dress too!"

Wang Qiuxia nodded in agreement: "Why not? You can set up a stall a few more times in the next few days. When our banquet is better, others will think more highly of us."

"That's the truth!"

When Jiang Xiaohe heard this, she took the sour dates into the kitchen to steam them.

It was almost noon when Zeng Hua left, and Wang Qiuxia hurried to help Jiang Xiaohe.

The two of them worked at home for two days before the sour jujube cake was ready. However, this time there was much more than last time. Jiang Xiaohe felt like her hands were almost broken!

This time they were going to the big market, so they had to wait a few days. Jiang Xiaohe and Zhang Fu went up the mountain again to pick some of the remaining grapes. Seeing that there were not many grapes on some vines, Jiang Xiaohe thought about moving the grapes to a new place. She took a hoe and dug up the seedlings and planted them in her backyard. However, she was a little worried that they would not survive!

Seeing that she went to the backyard every day to check on the grape vines, Zhang Fu said, "To really see whether it is alive or not, we have to see whether it sprouts next spring."

Jiang Xiaohe then put her mind at ease and concentrated on making wine. When market day came, there was nothing to sell at home, so Jiang Xiaohe did not go to town. However, she gave Zeng Hua some money and asked Zeng Hua to bring back some meat.

At noon, he invited Zeng Hua and others to have lunch. Without saying anything else, he just said that the two families should get together. When they heard this, the relationship between the two families deepened.

After two more days of hard work, the wild grapes were finally put into the wine jars. Jiang Xiaohe could finally have a good rest for a few days.

In the next few days, she stayed at home to take care of Zhang Chuan. Zhang Chuan's front teeth had begun to grow, and he liked to bite everything he saw and put anything he touched into his mouth. She had to watch him all the time, otherwise she was afraid that he would eat something dirty.

Wang Qiuxia smiled and said, "I've watched Chuan'er grow up so big."

"Children grow fast!" Jiang Xiaohe said while hugging Zhang Chuan.

Then he asked, "Where's Dad?"

"In the fields, the corn is about to be harvested. These days your father has been looking after those few acres of paddy fields and irrigating them with more water. Otherwise, when the time comes to harvest the corn, there will be no time to fetch water."

Jiang Xiaohe nodded, and it rained heavily in the village that night.

Even though it was raining outside, the weather was still very hot and I was sweating profusely while eating.

The next morning, firecrackers were heard in the village.

Jiang Xiaohe got up and asked Wang Qiuxia: "Could it be that today is the day that Li Taohua and Zhang Long are getting married?"

"That's right!" Wang Qiuxia answered, looking in the direction of Zhang Long's house.

"But I think this is a bad day. It rained until midnight yesterday. The village is full of potholes. It's not easy to walk on the road!"

Isn’t it difficult to walk?

The weather was still gloomy, and the sun didn't come out until the afternoon. In the afternoon, Zeng Hua came over with a basket to mend shoe soles, smiling and saying, "Sister-in-law, you don't know, Li Taohua and Zhang Long are getting married today, it's so funny!"
