Divorced woman with child travels through time

Chen Wenfang fell silent and was washing the dishes when Aunt Liu's family arrived. From the kitchen, Chen Wenfang heard Shi Tou shouting loudly, "Xuanzai, Xuanzai, I'm here!" Then she heard Chen Xuanyu's enthusiastic voice, "Brother Shi Tou, I'll show you my master!"

Chen Wenfang wiped her hands and went out. "Aunt Liu, you're here."

Aunt Liu handed five pounds of cornmeal to Chen Wenfang and said, "I've come to see the person you saved."

Chen Wenfang took the cornmeal and said, "Auntie, you're too kind. I'll go to the market with you this time. He's in the side room. I'll show you around. Let's go."

Chen Wenfang casually placed the cornmeal on the table, and together with Aunt Liu, Uncle Liu Hai, and Dazhuang, they rushed into Zhao Lue's room.

Shi Tou and Chen Xuanyu were already in the room, and with so many people, the room suddenly seemed a bit small.

When Zhao Lue saw people come in, he was unable to get up from his bed, so he nodded and said, "Hello, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu."

Aunt Liu and Uncle Liu chuckled awkwardly, "Hello, hello!" Chen Wenfang didn't even have a chance to introduce them. They had already greeted each other.

Seeing this, Chen Wenfang looked at Zhao Lue, implying that he should introduce himself.

Zhao Lue received the look and smiled, saying, "My name is Zhao Lue, you can just call me Xiao Zhao."

Seeing that Xiao Zhao was very handsome and had a good appearance, looking like a good person, Aunt Liu had an idea and asked, "How old are you, Xiao Zhao? Are you married? Who else lives in your family?"

Uncle Liu Hai also scrutinized him carefully, without saying a word.

Chen Wenfang asked speechlessly, "Aunt Liu, have you eaten yet?"

Aunt Liu looked at her with a puzzled expression. "You've already eaten, haven't you?"

Uncle Liu Hai looked at Aunt Liu and laughed, "That silly old woman."

Zhao smiled and replied knowingly, "I am twenty-five years old, unmarried, with a younger brother and sister, and my parents are alive and well, as are my grandparents."

Aunt Liu slapped her thigh and said, "Oh my, your family is well-off. Are you married?"

Seeing that Aunt Liu's words were getting more and more outrageous, Chen Wenfang pulled her aside and said, "Aunt Liu, my vegetable garden has been infested with worms, and they keep growing. Can you take a look?" As she spoke, she was pulled away.

Uncle Liu smiled at Zhao Lue and followed him out. The three children surrounded Zhao Lue, watching him.

In the outer room, Aunt Liu asked Chen Wenfang, "Why did you pull me?"

Chen Wenfang said, "I'm not pulling you. What are you thinking? Judging from his appearance, he's obviously not a good match for me. Why are you asking so many questions?"

Aunt Liu said, "Why is it inappropriate? You are one of the best in our village. Which woman in our village can compare to you?"

Chen Wenfang said helplessly, "Oh, my dear aunt, don't think that just because you think I'm good, I'm better than everyone else. He's not right for me. He'll just stay here to recover from his injuries for a few days and then leave. Don't worry about him."

Aunt Liu sighed and said, "I'm only doing this for your own good. You're raising a child all by yourself, you need someone to rely on."

Chen Wenfang said, "I understand, Aunt Liu, don't worry. When it's market day again, just ask me to come with you."

Aunt Liu nodded and said, "I'll come to your house together before we set off. But what about Xiao Zhao? He'll be all alone at home."

Chen Wenfang said, "He's so big, what's there to be afraid of? Just make him some food."

Aunt Liu said, "Alright, I'll head back now. The rice harvest will be in two months, and I'll be quite busy during that time. Could you please cook for me for a few days during the harvest?"

Chen Wenfang said, "No problem, it's a small matter. I'll make some pastries to eat at the market on market day, so you don't need to make any."

Aunt Liu said, "Alright, alright, anyway, your cooking is delicious."

Chen Wenfang watched them leave.

Inside Zhao Lue's room, Chen Xuanyu said, "Master, why don't you turn around and let them take a look at the wound?"

Zhao Lue said, "Why are you looking at this?"

Chen Xuanyu said, "I told Shi Tou that the wound was as big as the biggest fish we caught that day. He didn't believe me. I showed it to him, and I said it was."

Zhao Lue was speechless. What was there to compare? Oh well, they were just kids. Nevertheless, he turned around and showed the three of them his wound. It was summer, and Zhao Lue wasn't wearing a shirt or bandaging his wound. Chen Wenfang had said it was too hot and the wound needed to breathe to heal faster. He didn't really understand, but it seemed like Chen Wenfang was right, because he felt like his wound was getting better.

Chen Xuanyu pointed at Zhao Lue's back and said proudly, "See, I wasn't wrong, it's bigger than the fish we caught last time."

Stone looked at his brother, "Brother, is it really true?"

Dazhuang actually felt that he was already an adult and not suitable to play with the two little ones, but he had nothing else to do. He was idle after finishing his farm work, and since Sister-in-law Chen was kind, it was only right for him to help take care of the children.

Dazhuang said seriously, "Yes, there are. The fish we caught last time weren't even this long."

"Alright, you win," Shi Tou said, conceding defeat. Chen Xuanyu nodded in satisfaction. Zhao Lue found it very amusing.

After discussing the wounds, Chen Xuanyu added, "This Master Zhao knows martial arts. He has already agreed to teach three of us martial arts. I even got this for you guys. He originally only planned to teach me one, but it was because my mother saved him."

"You know martial arts?" Stone immediately jumped back in surprise and said, "Really?"

Zhao nodded and smiled, "Really."
