I have been farming since I crossed over.

After dinner, Yang Mingxi found Uncle Yang Qi, who looked a little depressed, and asked, "Uncle Qi, what's going on with Aunt Qi?"

Yang Laoqi looked up at Yang Mingxi, and remembering his mother's words, he shook his head and said, "If you make a mistake, send it back."

"Send her back just because she made a mistake? Don't want her anymore? Divorce her?" Yang Mingxi asked, her voice rising higher and higher.

Yang Laoqi shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I just made a mistake. Let's send her back to her parents' home for a few days. I don't know what to do next."

"You don't know? Then who knows? She is your wife, not someone else's. She is going to spend her life with you, not with someone else. If she makes a mistake, you are her husband, you should just teach her well. Why do you want to send her back?" Yang Mingxi said emotionally.

Yang Laoqi shook his head again and said, "It was your grandfather who said he wanted to send it back. I don't want to either."

"Seventh Uncle, are you a child? You listen to others in everything. Don't you have any judgment? Your wife is yours. If she makes mistakes, you just need to teach her a lesson. Why do you have to send her back?" Yang Mingxi yelled.

Uncle Yang Qi still shook his head and said, "I don't know either? I don't know anything? Don't ask me anymore."

"Yang Chunshu, you disappoint me so much. Don't shake your head no matter what I ask you. This is a sign of a coward. Tell me what mistake did Aunt Qi make? Is it because she doesn't raise chickens and ducks?" Yang Mingxi angrily called Yang Laoqi's name.

After hearing what Yang Mingxi said, Uncle Yang's eyes turned red with anxiety. He shouted at the top of his voice, "It's not about the chickens and ducks. She secretly gave her mother the chili powder for frying potatoes. Dad said she sold the secret recipe, so he sent her back to her parents' home."

After hearing this, Yang Mingxi laughed in anger. Even if she shared the recipe for her fried potato chili powder, no one would be able to make the same flavor. This was because she added interstellar spring water to the chili powder. Furthermore, each ingredient would become even more flavorful if left in the interstellar space for a while. This was something Yang Mingxi discovered on her way back home: the longer the steamed buns she left in the interstellar space were kept, the better they tasted.

"Is it just a small matter? It's not a big deal. I personally prepared the chili powder. Even if I give you the recipe, you can't make the same chili powder." Yang Mingxi said.

Yang Laoqi looked at Yang Mingxi in confusion and said, "The secret recipe leaked, is that a small matter? If everyone comes out to sell fried potatoes, what will you do?"

"You didn't see that during the time when we didn't sell fried potatoes, there were still people selling them. After we started selling them, there were still people selling them. No matter what, we can't have a monopoly, let alone such a simple fried potato." Yang Mingxi said slowly.

"..."

"So, Uncle Qi, go and bring Aunt Qi back home! Although she may be a little petty, she has nothing to say about you. Don't let her suffer in her parents' home!"

"I'm afraid this is not a good idea! Would your grandparents agree?" Yang Laoqi said.

"Yang Laoqi, that's your wife. It's OK as long as you are willing. I'll talk to your grandparents." After Yang Mingxi said this, she glanced at Yang Laoqi and went to find her grandparents.

Yang Mingxi returned to the house, walked up to Old Man and Old Lady Yang, and said with a smile, "Grandpa and Grandma, let me show you the rooms in our house. The layout is very good, and we've even reserved a room for you. Let me show you around."

"Laowu, why did you reserve a room for us? We are not coming to live in your house." Old man Yang said angrily.

"Xier said that she reserved a room for you. You can stay here for a few days if you have nothing to do, just like a vacation." Yang Laowu said.

"Let's go, Grandpa and Grandma, let's go and take a look?" Yang Mingxi supported the two of them and walked towards a room.

The room was simply furnished with a bed, a table, and two chairs. Yang Mingxi asked the old couple to sit down and said, "How is it? Do you like it, Grandpa and Grandma?"

Old Lady Yang said, "That's right. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Yang Mingxi laughed heartily and said, "Grandpa and grandma are really amazing. You can tell from this. I came to you to talk about Aunt Seventh's matter. It's actually not that serious. Even if the recipe was stolen, it's okay. No one else can make what I make myself."

Old Lady Yang asked, "Is there really no problem?"

Yang Mingxi smiled and said, "No, wait and see if you don't believe me, it definitely won't taste the same. But there will definitely be imitations, but the business can't be done by one family, so we have to leave some ways for others to make money!"

Old Lady Yang said, "Is there really no problem? What if our business is not doing well?"

"It's okay, I can prepare fresh food when the time comes. So, grandpa and grandma, please ask Uncle Seven to bring Aunt Seven back home! Her problem is really not serious. Besides, it's been several days, and the punishment is almost enough." Yang Mingxi said coquettishly while holding Old Lady Yang's arm.

"Okay, we got it. Let's go out!" Old man Yang stood up and said.

Yang Mingxi smiled and led the two elders back to the dining table.

After everyone finished their meal, they sat and played for a while and then went back to rest.

I don't know what Old Man Yang said to Yang Laoqi, but the next morning, Yang Laoqi found Yang Mingxi and said, "Xi'er, come with me to your seventh aunt's house. Let's see how your seventh aunt is doing and then decide whether to take her back."

Yang Mingxi shook her head and refused: "I won't go, you go by yourself, your wife, you decide for yourself, I have no objection."

Yang Laoqi's face flushed red and he looked like he was about to lose his temper, but for some reason, he forced himself to hold it back. Then he humbly said, "Xi'er, please accompany Uncle Qi for a walk! I heard that her mother wanted to marry her to a widower in the village, and she jumped into the river to commit suicide. She was rescued by her sister, and I don't know what her current situation is."

Yang Mingxi was so frightened that she stood up and said, "Catch the ox cart. I'll go with you. Hurry up."

Yang Laoqi nodded woodenly and said, "Oh? Okay, I'll go find Ayu to help harness the cart." After that, he ran away.

Yang Mingyu was driving an oxcart with Yang Laoqi sitting on it. Seeing Yang Mingxi, he said, "Xier, get in the car. I'll go with you. Uncle Qi is in this state, and I'm worried about you having no one to accompany you."

The uncle, nephew and two others drove an ox cart through Qingshui County and headed northwest to Zhangjiatun, the village where Aunt Seven's mother's family lived.

When we arrived at Zhangjiatun, Uncle Yang Qi pointed in the direction and led us to Aunt Yang Qi's home in the northeast of the village.

There was a noise coming from afar. Uncle Yang Qi seemed to hear Aunt Yang Qi's voice. He jumped off the ox cart and ran forward.

Yang Mingxi said, "Third brother, drive the ox cart over here, I'll go over and take a look."

Yang Mingxi ran after them and came into the crowd. She saw her seventh aunt Zhang lying beside a big tree. She looked weak, but her hands were tightly hugging the trunk, and she was shouting, "I am a married woman, I will not marry."

An old woman squatted next to Aunt Qi, smiling flatteringly, and stretched out her wrinkled hands, trying to pry open Aunt Qi's hands that were tightly hugging the tree trunk.

Her voice was filled with a coaxing and persuasive tone as she softly said, "Mom is doing this for your own good! Look at this man now, he's rich and powerful. If you follow him, you can live a wealthy life and become a boss's wife! Isn't that great?"

The old woman's eyes gleamed with greed, as if she saw a future of wealth and glory. She continued to persuade him, "Besides, this man treats you well. He bought you three beautiful sets of clothes and even said he would take you to Zuixianlou to eat delicious food and let you enjoy a comfortable life. Opportunities like this don't come around all the time, so you must seize them!"

However, Aunt Qi remained unmoved. She hugged the tree trunk tightly, her eyes revealing determination and resoluteness.

She knows that she cannot be deceived by money and power, and she cannot go against her conscience and moral bottom line. She would rather live a simple and real life than become a plaything or tool of others.

Seeing how stubborn Aunt Qi was, the old woman couldn't help but get anxious. She increased her strength, trying to forcefully pry her hand open, but Aunt Qi's strength was unexpectedly great, preventing the old woman from succeeding for a moment. The old woman sighed helplessly, muttering to herself, "Why is this damn girl so stubborn? It's really a headache!"

Aunt Yang Qi said, "I really don't know the recipe. I'm only responsible for mixing the potatoes. I don't know anything else. I'd rather be a farmer's wife than marry anyone else."

The old woman quickly changed her tone and said, "I don't want your recipe. I'm attracted to you as a person and want to take you to live a good life."

Aunt Yang Qi said, "Mother, please don't force me anymore. I am a member of the Yang family. Unless Yang Laoqi gives me a letter of divorce, I will never marry anyone else."
