After being divorced, I took care of my two children and reached the peak of my life

After hearing what Si Ni said, Aunt Zhang's face darkened again and she started scolding.

"That's a recipe your sister Han came up with. She was going to make it and sell it for money. How could we ask for it? We shouldn't be like this..."

After listening to her mother's words, Si Ni realized that she had said the wrong thing. She quickly lowered her head again and looked at the children. Aunt Zhang spoke in a serious tone.

"It's not easy for your sister Han to raise two children alone. She sent us fish, sold medicinal herbs to buy some meat, and sent us meat again. Now she has figured out a recipe to cook it and is going to sell it for money. We can't have such bad thoughts..."

Aunt Zhang also knew that her children were all of good character. She said a few words to them, and when she saw that they knew they were wrong, she calmed down and said no more. She asked them to wash their hands and prepare to eat.

When the old lady Fan from next door smelled the meat coming from Aunt Zhang's house, she couldn't help but feel curious and thought to herself, I didn't expect this poor family would be willing to buy meat even though it wasn't a festival. Then she turned around and saw the meat on her own table, and chuckled again.

"Hmph, I think even when buying meat, people would only buy one or two taels. It's nothing like at home, where we buy half a catty or a catty..."

Thinking that all the meat was bought by her, the new daughter-in-law, and that when her former daughter-in-law Han Yiyi was at home, she couldn't eat meat for ten days or half a month, she couldn't help but scold the original owner for being useless.

Han Yiyi couldn't hear the old lady Fan scolding her. Of course, even if she knew, she would just think she was talking nonsense and would not have time to pay attention to her. At this moment, she was enjoying the delicious food she made.

In the evening, Han Yiyi cooked some rice porridge, and made a scallion pancake with Nian. Xiaocong picked wild onions from behind the thatched hut. After kneading the dough and letting it rise a little, he rolled it into a pancake and sprinkled chopped green onions, oil and salt on it. Then he rolled the pancake into small pieces and pressed the small pieces into palm-sized pancakes. Then he fried them in a pan. When the thin pancakes were golden on both sides, they were ready to be taken out of the pan.

Han Yiyi was worried that they wouldn't be able to finish the meal, so she only made a few scallion pancakes, a bowl of braised large intestine, a bowl of small green vegetables, and a bowl of rice porridge, which was dinner for the three of them.

Because the weather was hot, Han Yiyi placed the food on the stone table in front of the house. Listening to the chirping of cicadas and watching the two little guys in front of him eating sweetly, at this moment, Han Yiyi suddenly felt a sense of peace and tranquility in his heart. He thought to himself that he must make good money so that he and the two little guys could live a life without worries about food and drink.

There were no entertainment activities here in the evening. After dinner, I washed and dressed the two little ones and then went to bed. There was no conversation all night.

The next morning, Han Yiyi had just gotten up and finished breakfast when she saw Da Niu walking towards the thatched hut with something in his arms.

"Sister Yiyi, this is the bamboo mat you wanted. I have already woven it. My mother was worried that you would need it urgently, so she asked me to deliver it to you first..."

As he said that, he leaned the rolled bamboo mat in his hand against the wall. After he leaned the bamboo mat against the wall, Han Yiyi saw that he was holding something in his hand. When she saw that thing, Han Yiyi's eyes lit up, but before she could say anything, she heard Daniu speak a little embarrassedly.

"Sister Yiyi, please help me see if this is the bamboo pillow you mentioned before..."

Han Yiyi reached out to take it. She had to say that Daniu's weaving skills were really good. She just gave him a simple description, but she didn't expect that he could actually make it.

Looking at the handmade bamboo pillow in his hand, Han Yiyi couldn't help but touch it carefully. It was very smooth, without any bamboo thorns or rough edges. He couldn't help but praise it.

"Yes, that's right. Da Niu's craftsmanship is really amazing. We can definitely take this to the town to sell...", then he turned around and went back to the house, taking the bamboo pillow in his hand inside.

When he came out again, he had a few more copper coins in his hand. Because Han Yiyi didn't know the price of the bamboo pillow, he took out thirty copper coins and stuffed them into Da Niu's hand, and then spoke again.

"Danniu, take these copper coins and make me two smaller ones for Shitou and Daya..."

At first, Da Niu didn't notice what Han Yiyi stuffed into his hand. When he saw that it was a copper coin, he quickly refused. Seeing Han Yiyi's firm attitude, he put the copper coin directly on the stone table and strode away.

Looking at the copper coins on the stone table and the people who had run away, Han Yiyi had no choice but to put them away again. He thought, since they don't want money, he will help them in other places in the future.

Today, Han Yiyi plans to go to the town again to buy some large intestines and start selling them tomorrow. As time is a bit tight and he also needs to investigate the market, he does not plan to take the two little ones with him. He wants Aunt Zhang to help take care of the two children.

As soon as Da Niu returned home, he told his mother that Han Yiyi wanted to give him money. So when he saw Han Yiyi leading the two children to his door, before he could say anything, he heard Aunt Zhang speak with some complaints.

"Girl, why are you becoming more and more distant from your aunt? If you continue like this, I will be angry..."

"Auntie, please don't be angry. I just saw that Daniu had worked so hard to write it, so I thought, well, in that case, I won't give it to you. Not only that, I'll also ask you to do me a favor..."

"That's right, what can I do for you..."

"It's like this. I have to go to town to buy some things today. It's inconvenient to take two children with me, so I thought of asking my aunt to help me look after them..."

Before Han Yiyi finished speaking, Aunt Zhang agreed immediately.

In fact, the reason why Aunt Zhang treated Han Yiyi like this was not only because she was a kind person, but also because she felt that Han Yiyi was like herself, both raising children alone. This may be what people often say, because they have been caught in the rain, they want to hold an umbrella for others. Although they are not having a good time, they still want to help if they can.

Han Yiyi watched as the thin bamboo strips took the shape of a pillow in Da Niu's hands, and then he said,

"I'm going to sell braised large intestines tomorrow. Da Niu, come with me to sell some bamboo pillows by weaving some..."

After listening to Han Yiyi's words, not only Da Niu's eyes lit up, but even Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up.

Daniu taught himself the skill of bamboo weaving. In the past, he would weave some bamboo baskets and sell them in the town. However, perhaps because Daniu was dull or something, he couldn't sell them most of the time. After a long time, he stopped selling them and only occasionally weaved some things for his own use.

Aunt Zhang knew that Han Yiyi often went to the town to sell handkerchiefs in the past, so she was considered an experienced person. If she and Da Niu were together, they might be able to sell this bamboo pillow.
