The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Mrs. Hu touched the material of the clothes and looked up at her.

"Isn't this dress cheap?"

Zhang stood up first. "No matter how expensive it is, since Tang'er has already bought it, it's all his thoughtfulness. Mom and Dad should try it on. If it doesn't fit, my sister-in-law and I can help alter it."

As she spoke, she began to take off Hu's coat.

Seeing this, Jiang hurried forward to help.

Mrs. Hu allowed her two daughters-in-law to take off her outer clothes and change into the new clothes that Song Yuntang bought for her.

"I'm just worried about the children spending too much money. Mom is already so old, and I don't know how long she can live. I'm afraid they'll waste these good things."

"Pah, pah, pah!" Zhang said angrily, "It's New Year's Day, mother, stop saying these unlucky words."

Hu smiled gently.

"Okay, I won't tell you."

Jiang fastened the last button for her and stood a little further away to look at her. "It fits really well."

Zhang also nodded and said, "That's perfect. We don't need to change anything."

On the side, Xu Yuande also changed into new clothes with the help of several grandchildren.

The fabric of the clothes is comfortable and lightweight. When I put them on, I suddenly felt my back straighten up and I felt a lot more relaxed.

He lowered his head to look at the clothes on his body, and from time to time he stroked the fabric of the clothes with his hands.

"This dress is really nice."

Xu Yongwang looked at him.

"Dad is dressed quite smartly. He looks at least twenty years younger."

Xu Yuande raised his head and said, "You little brat, you've become twenty years younger. Do I have to call you brother?"

Xu Yongwang was stunned for a moment, then waved his hands after realizing what was happening.

"Dad, don't yell at me. I don't deserve to be called your brother."

Seeing this, the people in the room burst into laughter again.

Afterwards, Song Yuntang took out some small gifts from his bag and distributed them to everyone.

They are not expensive little items, but they are a token of my appreciation.

Hu'er got a small unsharpened dagger and stopped bothering Gouzi. He started waving it around the house, making "hehehoha" noises.

For a moment, the room was bustling with activity.

At noon, the meal at home was very rich.

Chicken, mutton, pork, and fish were all prepared, and with the addition of radishes and cabbages harvested from the fields, after being processed by Zhang's skillful hands, the table was full of delicious food.

Everyone was extremely satisfied with the meal.

……

After finishing their meal, Xu Yongwang and Jiang took their family back home after putting everything in order at the old house.

We will come to the old house for dinner later in the evening.

This is a tacit understanding formed among the family. Although they have separated, the family still gets together to eat and drink like this around the Chinese New Year.

Although the food in previous years was not as sumptuous as this year.

But as long as the family is together, they will be happy even if they have to eat coarse food.

After Song Yuntang arrived home, he took out the clothes he had made for Jiang and Xu Yongwang.

"Dad, Mom, these two sets of clothes are yours. They are also filled with silk cotton. Try them on."

"And this." She took out two more boxes from her bag. "This is blood-nourishing pills for Mom, and this is ginseng pills for Dad."

Xu Yongwang looked at the box in his hand.

"It's fine to give it to your mother, but why should I get a share too? This ginseng pill is not cheap, right?"

"Dad forgot?" Song Yuntang looked at him with a smile, "Dad gave me a ginseng before, and this ginseng pill is made with that ginseng. You can't eat too much at one time, only this small box. After you finish it, I will make it for you next winter."

Xu Yongwang scratched his head.

"Originally, I gave you that ginseng to exchange for silver for your daily necessities, but now, you've returned it to me."

"There's no end to making money. My parents' good health is also reducing our burden. Dad, just take care of the food. I can still afford to give him a ginseng stick a year."

Song Yuntang said this and turned back to the house.

Seeing his daughter-in-law being so filial, Xu Yongwang couldn't stop laughing. He looked at Jiang and said, "See, the girl is more considerate than the brat."

"Yes, yes, yes." Jiang glanced at him with a smile, "Everyone has had a hard time this year, so don't tell anyone about it this time, or you'll make others jealous."

"I know. I've been keeping my mouth shut these days." He put the ginseng pill in Jiang's hand and said, "Wife, please keep this for me. We can eat it together later."

I have no objection to keeping Jiang.

"Since Tang'er gave you the ginseng pills, just take them. I have the blood-nourishing pills, which is enough for me."

After taking blood-nourishing pills for a period of time, her complexion has indeed improved a lot. These days, the old women in the village all praise her for looking younger.

When Song Yuntang returned to the house, Xu Qingye had already heated the kang.

"The kang has just been heated up, so it might take a while for it to warm up. If you feel cold, you can lie down on the bed first. Mother has already changed the bedding into something thicker."

Song Yuntang smiled and put his things away one by one.

"I just finished eating, so I don't feel cold anymore. Let me pack our luggage first."

There were not enough empty rooms at home, so Nian'er and Xia Ning were temporarily placed in the old house. After the New Year, they had to add a few more rooms at home.

My parents-in-law and grandparents all live here, and they always come back to stay several times a year. It would be more convenient if our own house is more spacious.

Xu Qingye stepped forward.

"I'm with you."

After they packed up their things, Song Yuntang lay down directly on the bed.

"After all this hard work, I can finally take a few days off. I wonder if anything will happen at the clinic."

Xu Qingye had a faint smile on his face.

"Just rest well these few days. Doctors Sun and Zhou are both doctors with many years of practice. You won't have any problems in just a few days."

Song Yuntang nodded.

"Hopefully."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door from outside.

"Brother and sister-in-law, can I come in and warm myself up?"

The two were stunned and hadn't reacted yet. They just looked at each other, and Song Yuntang quickly sat up from the bed.

Perhaps Jiang heard the noise and hurried out of the house.

"You little brat, you're stupid, aren't you?"

Xu Wencheng was puzzled.

"Mom, there's no kang in my room, it's cold."

Jiang glanced at him.

"If you're cold, wrap yourself in a blanket and don't bother your brother and sister-in-law."

Xu Wencheng scratched his head. "In previous winters, the kang in my eldest brother's room was always burning. Didn't our family always gather in there?"

"Oh my! How could I have given birth to such a fool like you?"

Jiang grabbed his ear and went to the main room, while educating her son in a low voice.

"How can this year be the same as previous years? Your eldest brother and his wife are married now, so why would you go to their house? If you disturb your brother and his wife's time together, when will your mother and father ever have a grandchild? You'll be sixteen by the end of the year, and in two years you'll be old enough to get married, and you don't even understand this?"
