Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Xiao Wan had dinner with her grandparents and mother and prepared to go home. Grandma Xiao watched Liu help Mrs. Tian clear the table and reminded them to take care of their health.

Seeing how virtuous Liu was, Grandma Xiao couldn't help but look a little complicated. She had really thought wrongly before. The old man was right. Whatever life Liu enjoyed was given by her husband.

As a mother-in-law, I shouldn't overreach too much. However, Mrs. Liu was still very filial to me. Apart from anything else, she would send me food every now and then and make clothes for me and my wife.

The second son also gave her money in private, and the gold bracelet on her hand was bought by her granddaughter. Thinking of this, Grandma Xiao felt a little embarrassed.

She grabbed Liu's hand, wanting to say something but feeling too embarrassed to speak, so she could only mumble, "Her father isn't home, so if you have nothing to do, come and have dinner..."

She couldn't say anything else. Liu smiled slightly and agreed softly, saying that the family would get together after her husband came back.

Grandma Xiao nodded happily in agreement. After Xiao Wan came out of the door, she gave her mother a thumbs up: "Mom, you are so generous."

Mrs. Liu knew what her daughter was talking about and couldn't help but sneer at her. She sighed softly and said, "What can I do? She's your father's biological mother. Besides, it's normal for a mother-in-law to lecture her daughter-in-law."

"Besides, your grandmother is a pretty good mother-in-law. She's never beaten or scolded her daughter-in-law, and she loves you both very much. It's just that our family is doing better now, and I guess your grandmother, living with your uncle, feels that there's a big gap between our family and your uncle's."

"You guys feed your mother well and it's normal for her to feel uncomfortable. I understand how she feels. She gets worried when any of her sons don't live well. If your eldest uncle or your third uncle's family lives better than ours, she'd be worried for us, too."

"But your grandma really doesn't have any bad intentions, and she's not a wicked mother-in-law. Compared to many daughters-in-law, I'm quite happy. You shouldn't be too picky about everything."

After hearing this, Xiao Wan became thoughtful. She seemed to have higher expectations of the people around her and was a bit picky, especially towards her grandparents. Maybe they had different positions and perspectives. She would have to think more before making a decision in the future.

After returning, Xiao Wan began to write back to Zhao Mingyuan. In the letter, she wrote about what she had done recently and expressed her concern for his situation.

Xiao Wan could also see Zhao Mingyuan's difficulties from his letter. Although Zhao Mingyuan did not explain it, it seemed to be related to the issue of food and fodder for the army.

She didn't know how to help Zhao Mingyuan, so she bit the tip of her pen and started thinking as she wrote.

Considering that it would take Liu Feng six or seven days to reach Kaoshan Village, Xiao Wan asked him to rest for two days before setting off.

There was no rush to write the letter, so Xiao Wan quickly went to the kitchen to search for things to bring to Zhao Mingyuan.

There was also some dried pork that had just been made a few days ago in the kitchen, all wrapped in oil paper, as well as sausages that she and Aunt Zhang had made, some with soy sauce and some with spicy flavor, and they packed some for Zhao Mingyuan.

It's bitterly cold at the border, and food is probably scarce, so it's always better to bring more.

There was also the hot pot base made by Aunt Zhang, which Xiao Wan also put into a small jar and carefully placed in a cool and dry place, where it could be stored for a long time.

The sesame paste was also filled into a ceramic jar, sealed, and then tied tightly with a rope to prevent it from leaking on the road.

After Zhao Mingyuan and Uncle Zhao came back from training, they asked someone to bring up a small pot to fry some meat and vegetables. It was quick and convenient.

Before she knew it, Xiao Wan had packed out a large pile of things. She was a little dumbfounded looking at the pile of things. She was so busy preparing food for Zhao Mingyuan that she forgot that Liu Feng could not carry so many things by himself.

How can this be good?

At this time, Tian Qing came running and said that Liu Feng had woken up and was ready to come over to pay his respects to the county lord.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhang glanced at Xiao Wan, and Xiao Wan nodded. Aunt Zhang then hurriedly began to prepare the food.

The meat and vegetables were all prepared, waiting for Liu Feng to eat whenever he woke up.

Xiao Wan was not stingy and prepared braised pork, pickled fish, boiled pork slices, fried noodles with soybean paste, etc., and also prepared some fresh vegetables.

They have come from far away and traveled for six or seven days on horseback. How can they not eat something good to replenish their energy?

I didn't dare give him greasy food before because I was afraid that he wouldn't have enough to eat or drink on the road, and his stomach wouldn't be able to bear eating meat all of a sudden.

Now that I have drunk porridge, eaten some side dishes, and slept for most of the day, it should be time to eat some meat.

I also added a little spiritual spring water to the dish. When Liu Feng came, his lips were chapped and his face was dry from the wind. He came here covered in dust with letters and things, and he must have suffered on the way.
