Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

Mother Yang came up to Xiuying and asked in a low voice, "Xiuying, can you tell me about Ma Caifeng, the daughter of the Ma family?"

Xiuying frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Mom, this Ma Ergun was so lazy before. All the work at home and in the fields was done by his wife Wang Fuping alone. Fortunately, Ma Ergun changed his ways later.

But I've never really met his daughter, Ma Caifeng, so I don't know her very well."

Mother Yang showed a trace of disappointment on her face. "Oh, what should I do? I don't know if this girl has a good temper."

Xiuying patted Yang's mother's hand and said, "Mom, don't worry. We can ask around later. Maybe we can get something useful from others."

Mother Yang sighed, "This is the only way. I just can't let this go."

The two stood in the yard, the sun shining on them, but Yang's mother did not feel the warmth at all. She was worried about her son's marriage.

After the fight between Zhao Cunliang and Tian Guilan, their home was in shambles. The harvest had already been poor, and now the hailstorm had ravaged their granary, destroying their already limited supply of grain.

Tian Guilan was already fuming, and looking at the limited food supply, she stamped her feet in anger and shouted at Zhao Cunliang, "This life is unbearable!"

Then, she gritted her teeth and walked towards Zhou Dazhu's house with her four sons who brought honor to the family and were rich and powerful.

Along the way, Tian Guilan kept muttering, "Zhou Dazhu borrowed our family's grain, it's time to return it."

Arriving at Zhou Dazhu's house, Tian Guilan didn't hesitate to knock on the door and yelled, "Zhou Dazhu, come out! Return our food!"

Zhou Dazhu opened the door and said with embarrassment, "Sister-in-law Guilan, it's not time yet."

Tian Guilan glared, "Isn't that time coming yet? Look at what has become of my family. You must return the grain to me today!"

The four sons also joined in: "That's right, return the food quickly!"

Zhou Dazhu sighed helplessly, "Okay, I'll think of a way."

Tian Guilan put her hands on her hips and said, "Whatever you want, you have to give it to me today!"

Tian Guilan stood in front of Zhou Dazhu's house, with anger rising in her heart.

She thought angrily: This damn hail has caused so much damage to our home. When we were repairing the roof, Zhou Dazhu didn't even come to help.

Fortunately, our Zhao family is usually polite to their family. Now that we are in trouble, he pretends to be confused.

Humph, you borrowed our food and are still dragging your feet on returning it? No way! We have to get the food today, no matter what.

Thinking of this, Tian Guilan's eyes became more determined, staring at Zhou Dazhui with no intention of backing down.

Just when Tian Guilan and Zhou Dazhu were at a stalemate, Zhou Dazhu's wife Hongmei came out.

With a hint of helplessness on her face, she said, "Sister Guilan, don't be so stingy. After all, our two families are still related."

Tian Guilan got even angrier when she heard this: "Relationship? Just because we're related, you can borrow grain and not return it? My family can barely make ends meet, and you still have the mind to make sarcastic remarks!"

Hongmei frowned and said, "Sister Guilan, we have difficulties too. We simply can't provide food."

Tian Guilan sneered, "Can't you pay it back? I think you just don't want to pay it back!"

At this time, some neighbors gradually gathered around and pointed at them.

Hongmei felt a little embarrassed and said, "Sister Guilan, let's go inside and talk. Don't make a scene here. It's making a fool of yourself."

Tian Guilan folded her arms across her chest and stood there motionless: "Let's talk about it right here. I want to see what explanation you can give me today!"

Seeing that Tian Guilan was determined and had no intention of backing down, Hongmei quickly put on a smile, stepped forward, took Tian Guilan's hand and said, "Sister Guilan, let's not just stand there in the open air. Let's go inside and have a good discussion."

Tian Guilan didn't want to let it go, but with Hongmei holding her like that, she couldn't break free, so she could only follow Hongmei into the house while muttering to herself.

After entering the house, Hongmei quickly brought a stool for Tian Guilan, "Sister Guilan, please sit down first and calm down."

Tian Guilan sat down angrily and said, "I want to see what you can discuss today!"

Hongmei poured a glass of water for Tian Guilan and handed it to her, "Sister Guilan, drink some water first, and we'll talk slowly."

Tian Guilan turned her head away and did not take the glass of water.

Hongmei smiled awkwardly, put the water on the table, and then sat down opposite Tian Guilan.

Seeing that Tian Guilan was still angry, Hongmei rolled her eyes and said, "Sister Guilan, don't be angry anymore. Let's talk about something else. I heard that your Guangzong is almost old enough to get married."

When Tian Guilan heard about her son's marriage, her expression softened a little and she said, "That's right. I was worried about this."

Hongmei smiled and continued, "Oh, is there a girl you like?"

Tian Guilan sighed: "Alas, I fell in love with the girl from the Sun family before, but they looked down on me."

Hongmei said hurriedly, "Hey, that's because she has no taste. Our Guangzong has such a good child. Don't worry, take your time to look for good girls. There are many good girls."

Tian Guilan frowned and said, "How can I not be anxious? As long as Guangzong doesn't get married, I won't feel at ease."

Hongmei comforted her, "Sister Guilan, fate can't be rushed. You never know when you'll meet the right person, and then you can just wait to enjoy a peaceful life with your grandchildren."

Tian Guilan rolled her eyes at her and said, "You're the only one who knows how to say nice things. With my family's current situation, which girl would be willing to marry into my family?"

Hongmei smiled and said, "Didn't I hear you say before that Xiuying fell in love with your boy? How did it become the girl from the Sun family? Even though Xiuying's daughter and your boy are cousins, there is no rule in Dayan that prohibits cousins from marrying."

When Tian Guilan heard this, her expression changed instantly. She raised her voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense! How can we let Guangzong marry his cousin? This is a mess! It was just a joke before. Besides, I don't like Xiuying's daughter!"

Hongmei curled her lips and said, "Oh, look at your picks. Then the girl from the Sun family must be good?"

Tian Guilan stiffened her neck and said, "Of course. The Sun family girl looks very pretty and has a gentle temperament."

She has a gentle temperament so that he can control her. She is not like the girls in Xiuying's family who are fierce and difficult to discipline.

Hongmei snorted softly: "Humph, who knows? Anyway, marriage depends on fate."

Tian Guilan glared at Hongmei and said, "What do you know? I have to take good care of my son's marriage.

"Sister Sun's family is not in bad shape now. Although they still live in a mud house, they have plenty of food stored at home. When Sun Huahua marries, her parents will have to help her to make life easier for her in her husband's family."
