My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

There are two stoves in the Fang family's old house. Ji Yunshuang uses one of the large pots to stew braised pork intestines, and the other large pot is used to make potato rice.

She took the potatoes out of her spatial storage under some pretext during her escape.

After the apocalypse, she often missed her grandmother's potato stew. Unfortunately, her grandmother had already passed away by then, and the potatoes had mutated into alien plants that attacked humans, making them inedible.

Now I finally have the chance to make potato rice again.

Ji Yunshuang became happy.

The only regret is that when she was a child, her grandmother's potato rice was made by stir-frying homemade smoked bacon and potatoes together.

She didn't have a chance to take out the cured meat from her space when she was shopping in Hongdu today, so now she can only stir-fry the potatoes with lard to make a potato rice dish without cured meat.

However, although there was no cured meat, there was no pollution in this era, and the pigs ate very healthy food, so the lard smelled especially fragrant.

Stir-frying it with potatoes makes it even more delicious.

Ji Yunshuang couldn't help but take a deep breath from the intoxicating fragrance, let alone the group of people working in the courtyard.

Not long after Fang Zijian and Kong Xiufang left, Lu Yinheng, Zhou Dalin, and others returned from the mountains carrying wood and bamboo.

Right now, everyone is working hard in the yard, planning to make a few makeshift beds for the women and children to use for one night.

Lu Wuzheng learned how to make a carpenter's mobile phone.

Although the aroma wafting from the kitchen made their mouths water several times more than usual, the thought of the delicious food they would have for dinner made everyone work even harder.

Just as everyone was working enthusiastically, Gao Lan, carrying a roll of straw mats, poked her head out into the yard and called out loudly, "Is Sister Ji home?"

Today, while leading the way for Ji Yunshuang, the two got along very well and later even addressed each other as sisters.

She already felt that Ji Yunshuang and her group were probably quite capable, and she had a very good impression of them. After eating the pastries that Ji Yunshuang gave her, she became even more certain of her guess.

After thinking it over, she discussed it with her husband and decided to send some gifts over while the Lu family and others were still getting to know each other in the village, so that they could make friends with the families first.

Gao Lan's husband is named Wang Erniu.

There are three brothers in the Wang family, and he is the second oldest.

His elder brother, Wang Dazhi, was a peddler who carried his wares on a shoulder pole through the streets and alleys, sending his children to school.

His third brother couldn't bear the hardships of being a peddler, but he was quick-witted. After studying for a few years, he found a job in the city and was able to send half a string of cash to his parents every month.

Of the three brothers, he was the most foolish, the most incompetent, and the least liked by his parents. His family was separated from him at a young age.

Fortunately, his wife is kind-hearted and doesn't look down on him. He is the most foolish, and although he doesn't usually say it, he is always very grateful to Gao Lan and feels that the luckiest thing in his life is being able to marry Gao Lan.

After listening to his wife's words, he immediately nodded in agreement and said, "They just arrived, so it would be best if we brought them some things they urgently need right now."

Gao Lan thought about the loads on those oxcarts, and then about how Liao had taken them to her old house. She quickly came up with an idea and said, "I don't know what's going on at Fang Lizheng's house lately, but they've cleaned up the old house inside and out."

However, I noticed that although they had cleaned the house thoroughly, there wasn't much furniture inside. How about we send some old furniture over?

When Wang Erniu's father realized that he wasn't cut out for studying, he found a carpenter and had him learn the craft from him.

However, after only a short time learning the craft, he was scolded by his carpenter for being stupid and sent home.

It can be said that he was not liked by the two elders, which is one of the main reasons.

Although he hadn't studied for long and had earned a reputation for being as stupid as a pig, he always enjoyed fiddling with wood in his spare time.

Because he had only been learning for a short time, the furniture he made at the beginning was very clumsy.

As he pondered the design for a longer period, he gradually made improvements, and the furniture he made at the beginning was eventually phased out.

His family does have quite a few old pieces of furniture.

Wang Erniu's dark face flushed slightly as he thought about the ugly things he had made. He asked uncertainly, "Will people dislike the old furniture I made?"

Gao Lan, however, had her own reasoning: "Giving new things would make us seem too obsequious, and people might even suspect we have ulterior motives and be afraid to associate with us too much. Giving you the old things you made is the best option."

Wang Erniu never had any ideas about this, so in the end he naturally listened to his wife.

The two of them called their children and carried their belongings to the Fang family's old house.

Wang Erniu carried the wooden plank and followed behind Gao Lan, feeling a surge of nervousness.

Just as he was feeling uneasy and unsure of what to do, Ji Yunshuang quickly walked out of the room.

When she saw Gao Lan, her face lit up with surprise, and she quickly came to greet her, "Sister Gao, what brings you here?"

Gao Lan laughed heartily and said, "I thought you had just settled in the village, so I brought you some things over tonight."

"Sister Gao, you're too kind. I don't know how to thank you enough." Ji Yunshuang took the straw mat, feigning gratitude and speaking incoherently.

Gao Lan was overjoyed to see this and quickly called her husband to bring the things in, introducing them as follows: "This is my husband. He is a bit clumsy, and he made this wooden bed himself using wood from the mountains."

"Sister Ji, I hope you don't mind that the things we sent are old and ugly."

"How could I possibly mind? This is a godsend, I'm so grateful!" Ji Yunshuang said. "We're in dire need of beds right now!"

She gestured for Wang Erniu to put the planks on the ground, and then pointed to the wood and bamboo scattered all over the yard, saying, "This is the wood and bamboo we rushed to the back mountain to cut today. We were just planning to make a simple bamboo bed! You've really helped us a lot."

Gao Lan praised Ji Yunshuang's man for being so capable, saying that he had only just arrived today and had already led his men to cut down so much bamboo and wood.

On one hand, she complained about how hard it was to make the bamboo bed, and how good her husband was to her, unlike her own stupid and clumsy husband who wouldn't be so considerate.

While pretending to be shy, Ji Yunshuang tried her best to praise Wang Erniu, saying that she was the one who was truly blessed.

After a long exchange of pleasantries, Gao Lan suggested that Ji Yunshuang bring people to her house to move some old furniture. She said that her stupid husband had come up with these things in his spare time and asked her to move them over temporarily to make do. She said that once everything was settled, they could chop up the broken things and use them as firewood.

Ji Yishuang quickly praised Wang Erniu and the children behind him before reluctantly accepting Gao Lan's suggestion.

However, she did not go herself, but instead sent Lu Yinheng with people. She left Gao Lan's children in the courtyard and had them sit with Lu Yanqi and his sister, as well as the children from the Mu and Zhao families. She took out snacks for them to share.

Gao Lan and Wang Erniu have three sons and two daughters. The eldest, Wang Dacong, is 14 years old this year and is the main force in helping his parents move things. When Ji Yunshuang asked him to sit down and eat with Lu Yanqi and the other children, he was very embarrassed and ran away with a red face.

In the end, only the younger Wang Ercong, Wang Sancong, Wang Daya, and Wang Xiaoya remained.

Although Wang Daya stayed behind, she continued to help Ji Yunshuang with her work.

"There's no work for you kids here, so just sit here and play with them." Ji Yunshuang smiled and stuffed a handful of roasted peas into her hand. "Eat them while you play."

Today at the market, she bought a lot of peas, planning to cook them at home.

However, she hadn't had time to process the peas she bought; these were taken from her spatial storage.

Wang Daya was flattered and overwhelmed. She carefully held the fried peas, feeling a little flustered and unsure of what to do.

Because she had never encountered such a situation before.

Wang Xiaoya, like her sister, felt extremely helpless and uneasy.

She was only four years old, about the same age as Lu Yanqi and his sister. But she looked even thinner and smaller than Lu Yuzhu, who had fled here. Ji Yunshuang gave her something, but she didn't say anything and didn't dare to eat it.

Thinking about how the Mu family always rushed to do chores and always gave the best food to the elders and the girls of the brothers, Ji Yunshuang felt inexplicably choked up.

In this era, it seems that most women are taught from a young age to humble themselves to the dust.

But why should I?

A thought suddenly arose in her mind: one day, she would overthrow this patriarchal social atmosphere.
