"But I really haven't thought about remarrying. I think the way we live is fine." Jiang Yan was speaking from her heart. She was used to the simple life as a mother and daughter.

She didn't want to cause trouble for herself. Only a masochist would find a family of people who would serve her endlessly.

But Guan, as an ancient person, didn't think so. In this era, men are women's heaven. If there is no heaven at home, it will not work. So she tried her best to persuade her. "What's good? Didn't you just say you had a nightmare? If there is a strong man by your side, there will be no nightmares."

Speaking of strong men, Guan seemed to raise her eyebrows in a lewd manner.

Jiang Yan: Is this how the saying "Don't judge a book by its cover" comes from?

Seeing Jiang Yan's distraction, Guan raised her voice to try to attract her attention. "Sister, please consider what I'm saying. Life is hard enough for us women, and it's even harder for women in Border Town."

Jiang Yan agreed with Guan's last words. She had all the memories of her original body.

The original body has been here for five years. If the original body had not met Shen Sanlang as soon as it got off the escort car, it is really unknown what would have happened in the future.

This was also the reason why she didn't leave even though the Shen family treated her and her daughter harshly. She was afraid that if she took her daughter out of the Shen family's courtyard, she would not know what kind of people she would meet.

She didn't dare to gamble on unknown dangers.

"Eh? Sister Jiang~" Seeing that Jiang Yan was silent again, Guan pushed her arm and whispered, "Sister, why are you always distracted today?"

"Is there any?"

"Anything else? You'll know if you look in the mirror yourself."

"Oh."

Guan: There’s no way to talk about this anymore, let her sister talk about it all today.

Alas, thinking of those old bachelors in the Hundred Households Office who were still vying to marry Sister Jiang, Guan was worried. What should she do?

Jiang Yan didn't know that all the bachelors in the Hundred Households Office who had seen her made marrying Madam Jiang their life goal.

Zhang Xiaoqi and his wife became the best matchmakers. Everyone came to them for help, and they didn't try to be pushy. They refused to agree to any requests from people with bad character, bad temper, or bad habits.

In the end, after looking around, only Guo Xiucai barely passed.

The only excuse is that Mr. Guo is a little old.

Guan thought it was feasible, as she felt that older people would know how to care for others.

Jiang Yan didn't know yet that the Zhang couple were trying hard to pair her up with that scholar Guo.

In their eyes, an old bachelor and a young widow is a perfect marriage.

Yichen was leaning against the door frame at the front door, watching. She had already guessed what Aunt Guan wanted to do, which was to help her mother find a match.

She didn't object to her mother remarrying, but she hoped her mother could find the right person, someone who would be good to her.

She didn't care.

As for the territories of the Thirteen Banners, not to mention that she had high standards, she didn't like any of them.

Guan also noticed the strange look in Chenchen's eyes and thought she was seeing things. But when she looked carefully, she saw that the look in his eyes hadn't changed at all.

Guan looked at Yi Chen and her first thought was that this little girl didn't want her mother to remarry.

Guan wanted to say a few words to Chenchen, but the little girl's stubborn look prevented her from opening her mouth.

"Oh, forget it. I'll go back first." Guan said and turned away.

Jiang Yan felt empty inside, as if she had been visiting someone and hadn't returned yet. Without even taking a bite of breakfast, she put on her bamboo hat and headed to the paddy fields. She had originally planned to weed the fields today.

However, just as she stood by the paddy field, she heard someone talking on the other side of the river.

"Is this Xiaoliu's wife?"

"It should be. Didn't that little flag lord say that Madam Jiang and her daughter live on the other side of the river?"

"Wuwu~" The old woman's crying was so sad that it made me feel uncomfortable.

"Mom, please stop crying. Your health is more important."

"Yes, Grandma."

"My little six~"

Jiang Yan was already feeling uncomfortable, and hearing the crying voice made her feel even more upset.

But the mouth belongs to someone else, and even if she is a Pacific police officer, she can't control that part.

After some helpless consideration, Jiang Yan decided to give herself a vacation.

"Morning~"

"mother?"

"Let's go, mother and daughter won't work today."

"Ha~" Yi Chen was quite happy to hear that she didn't have to work today. "Mom, let's go for a walk in the city." Yi Chen said, then remembered that they had to pass by the Hundred Households Office on the way to the city, so she quickly changed the subject: "Mom, how about we go hunting? We haven't used our new crossbow yet. I want to see you look so heroic, hehe~"

Yichen: Once again showing off her exaggerated smile.

But before Jiang Yan could answer, San Sheng's voice came from not far away: "I want to go too, Aunt Jiang, take me with you."

Sansheng was afraid Jiang Yan wouldn't agree, so he ran over and kept asking. "Aunt Jiang, I'm stronger than Chenchen. I can help you carry a lot of things."

Looking at the boy's pleading face, Jiang Yan really couldn't bear to refuse.

But this wasn't her own child after all, so Jiang Yan couldn't make the decision for him. So, she said to him kindly, "Sansheng, you should go back and ask your parents if they agree that you can go with us."

Sansheng didn't want to go back and ask, fearing his parents wouldn't agree. But when he saw Aunt Jiang refused to compromise, he had to go home reluctantly.

"Mother~"

"That's not something we should worry about. You wait here while Mom goes to lock the door."

"Yeah." Yichen sat on the tree stump, swinging her little feet leisurely, not caring at all about the people on the other side of the river secretly looking at her.

The old woman said, "Just like Xiaoliu when he was little, even the tuft of hair is the same."

"Grandma, is that really my little cousin?"

"Yes, there's no doubt about it."

Yichen: Just pretend you didn’t hear it. She and her mother are not planning to acknowledge each other.

Besides, there is no DNA testing here so how can we know whether it is true or not?

People are two-faced, so they have the final say.

But Jiang Yan didn't expect that Sansheng would come back so soon, followed by Dasheng and Ersheng. Dasheng was carrying a big bow on his back, which looked a bit funny.

"You guys, this is..."

"Mom and Dad agreed that we could go play with Aunt Jiang, but they were afraid there might be danger on the road, so I brought my dad's bow and arrow with me."

Dasheng was particularly happy today. He had coveted his father's sword and bow and arrow for a long time. But his father usually forbade him to touch them. Today, he showed some mercy and allowed him to carry the bow and arrow, Ersheng to carry the hatchet, and Sansheng to carry the stick.

His parents also told them not to leave the valley, and certainly not to go north.

They just had to stroll around in the valley. If they could catch a pheasant or a rabbit, they would be lucky. If not, it didn't matter. They could just go out and have fun for a day.

Dasheng: He felt that this was the first time in his life that his parents had been so kind.
