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

After lunch, Song Yuntang took a short nap. When he woke up, Xu Qingye had already returned home.

"Why are you back so soon?"

Xu Qingye smiled and helped her up.

"Tang'er wasn't around, and I felt the party was boring, so I came back early."

Hearing what he said, Song Yuntang was a little surprised.

"Why are you still being annoying? You've never said anything like this before."

Xu Qingye pursed his lips and smiled, but did not tell her what happened at the banquet.

"I've just asked Xia Ning and Gui Ping to load all the things onto the carriage. When does Tang'er plan to leave for the farm?"

Song Yuntang stood up.

"Let's go now."

……

The village is much cooler than the county town.

When he was in the county town, Song Yuntang always felt a layer of sweat on his body. After returning to the farm, he sat in the yard and felt refreshed by the mountain breeze.

The melon cooled with mountain spring water tastes even better.

"It's really hot today."

While she was eating the melon, a figure quickly crossed the gate and ran towards her.

"Sister-in-law! It's really you!"

Worried that his recklessness might hurt the baby in Song Yuntang's belly, Xu Qingye stood up and grabbed the back of his neck when he was still a few steps away from Song Yuntang.

"Your sister-in-law is pregnant now, please be careful."

Xu Wencheng was forced to stop. His eyes swept across Song Yuntang's abdomen and then fell on her face. His eyes were red.

"Sister-in-law, am I dreaming?"

Song Yuntang smiled, picked up a piece of chilled melon, stood up and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Is it sweet?"

Xu Wencheng quickly reached out to take the piece of watermelon, took a big bite, and nodded with a smile.

"sweet!"

Sister-in-law is really back!

It’s great that my sister-in-law is not dead!

The young man raised his sleeve and swept it under his eyelids, then looked at Xu Qingye and Song Yuntang.

"Sister-in-law, what happened before?"

Song Yuntang told him the general story of Lin Zhaozhao pushing her off the cliff, and told him that the body in the cave was Lin Zhaozhao, not her.

After hearing this, Xu Wencheng felt extremely disgusted.

"If I had known it was that vicious woman, I wouldn't have spent so much effort burying her, spending several days erecting a tombstone, and buying so many offerings."

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

If he wasn't disgusted, he would have wanted to dig her out again.

Xu Qingye glanced at him indifferently.

"Who said you were stupid? You couldn't even recognize your sister-in-law."

Xu Wencheng scratched his head, frowning as he said, "I was so busy feeling sad at the time that I didn't even think about it."

He turned and looked at Song Yuntang.

"Sister-in-law, I was wrong."

Song Yuntang smiled and stretched out his hand towards Xu Qingye.

"It's okay, I'm back now, right?"

Xu Qingye went forward and helped her sit down again.

"Be careful."

Xu Wencheng looked into Song Yuntang's eyes with a puzzled look on his face.

"What happened to my sister-in-law's eyes?"

Song Yuntang said calmly, "I was injured when I fell off the cliff, but I shouldn't need to take too long to recover."

Xu Wencheng felt uncomfortable when he thought about her eye injury and the suffering she had endured outside for such a long time while pregnant.

His mouth is faster than his brain.

"I was careless this time, and I won't do it again."

Xu Qingye looked at him in surprise.

"Do you want a next time?"

Xu Wencheng was stunned and shook his head quickly, "No, there won't be a next time. My sister-in-law and nephew will be safe and sound in the future."

As he spoke, he raised the watermelon in his hand to change the subject.

“This melon is really delicious.”

Jiang came from the backyard carrying a sewing basket.

"The donkey does nothing all day but kick you in the head? If you can't speak anymore, talk less. Too much talk leads to mistakes."

Xu Wencheng looked at Jiang with grievance.

"mother!"

Jiang rolled her eyes at him, put the sewing basket on the table, and took out two sets of children's clothes that she had made herself.

"Tang'er, I've made three sets of clothes for the child these days. I don't know if they're enough. If they're not enough, I'll make some more."

She didn't know Song Yuntang was still alive before.

She started making these small clothes after she came back. The stitches are fine, the fabrics are soft, and they are made with great care.

Song Yuntang took the clothes in his hands and felt them, a smile appearing on his face.

"Thank you for your hard work, mother. Babies grow fast when they're still young, and it's summer now. Three sets of clothes are enough for now. When the baby is a little older, I can make autumn and winter clothes for him directly."

Jiang nodded.

"Okay, Mom will wash these sets of clothes and keep them ready so the baby will have something to wear when he's born."

After saying that, she put the clothes back into the sewing basket and went to the backyard.

Xu Qingye exchanged glances with Jinshu.

Seeing her coming, he whispered a few words in Song Yuntang's ear and then led Xu Wencheng to the study.

I don’t know what the two brothers said, but when Xu Wencheng came out of the study, his face looked a little solemn. He stayed at home quietly for two days, then said goodbye to his family and went to the mountains.

……

For the next half month, Xu Qingye stayed by Song Yuntang's side unless necessary, taking care of her meticulously.

"Tang'er, the teacher has sent a letter."

Song Yuntang looked at him.

"Is something wrong?"

Xu Qingye said calmly, "He said my position has been confirmed, starting with the sixth-rank Imperial Academy editor. He also said that after serving in the capital for six months, I can apply for a relocated position. Then, returning to the capital, my chances of promotion will be greater."

Song Yuntang nodded. "Mr. Tang has been an official for many years and has his own experience. Since he said that, he must have his reasons. Why don't you consider what he said?"

She knew nothing about official affairs.

However, she knew very well that although she was now the county lady, she only had a title and no rights.

Xu Qingye still has to shoulder the responsibilities of the family.

Xu Qingye had his concerns.

"I'm thinking, I'll be sent out in half a year. If it's to a good place with good weather, it'll be fine. But if it's to a barren land, the child will be half a year old, and you've only been giving birth for half a year. I'm afraid you'll have to suffer with me by then."

But after what happened this time, he would never dare to leave them alone there.

From now on, wherever he is, there will be mother and son.

Song Yuntang shook his head.

"Mrs. Zhu has been following Master Zhu around for over a decade, and she's never complained. We're husband and wife, and as long as our family is together, what's there to fear, no matter how hard it is? Besides, even though our current wealth isn't as good as before, our business will surely grow in the future, so we won't have to suffer that much."

Xu Qingye smiled with relief.

"Tang'er is so understanding, so I have nothing to fear."

In the future, he will have to work hard to become the greatest support for his wife and children.

Song Yuntang lowered his head and touched his belly with a gentle expression.

"It's been nine and a half months, and the little guy is still living peacefully. I don't know when he can check out."

The man placed his large palm on the back of her hand. "As long as everything is normal, it doesn't matter if it's a little late. Let's wait patiently. Tang'er, don't be anxious."

"It's not that I'm anxious." Song Yuntang looked at him and said, "I'm worried that if the child doesn't come out, it will delay things in the capital."

The man shook his head calmly.

"Right now, the safety of you and your child is more important than anything else."
