A blessed wife leads her husband to wealth and prosperity!

Since their relationship progressed further last night, Lin He'er's feelings for Wen Yuning have naturally developed!

Wen Yuning went to the county school early in the morning, while Lin He'er didn't get up until midday.

It's already late autumn, and when you breathe out outside, you can see a thin mist; the weather has really gotten cold.

After eating the meal prepared by Granny Li, Lin He'er still had to go to the shop to help out.

I wonder how Xiao Yang Village will react to the letter I sent.

In Xiaoyang Village, Wen Yuyu had already packed her things to take with her. Since resolving her inner conflict, she had become much more vibrant.

We're leaving for the county town today.

Since it was my first time going out, I was still a little timid.

Let's go, Yu Yu.

Wen Dazhuang drove the oxcart, wanting to send his daughter there as soon as possible.

The reason they left in such a hurry was because after dropping off the guests, they had to go to the fields to harvest rice.

Because Xiaoyang Village is close to the mountains, the temperature is lower than outside, so the rice ripens later.

If this were in a village outside, the rice would already be stored in the granary.

In the past two years, Wen Dazhuang has been planting rice according to the methods taught by his daughter-in-law, and his harvest has always been the best in the village.

A few years ago, my two acres of paddy fields could only yield a maximum of 800 catties of rice.

Now that we've changed the planting method, we can harvest 200 jin more per mu than before.

Two hundred catties of rice is no small amount; it's enough to feed the two of them for half a year.

Seeing their increased harvest, many villagers asked Wen Dazhuang to teach them this new method. This year, almost everyone in the village is planting rice according to the method he taught them.

Therefore, Wen Dazhuang had to hurry back after dropping off his daughter.

The oxcart we used to go out today was our own.

In the past two years, the family has had a steady stream of income. The first major purchase Wen Dazhuang made for the family was a yellow ox he bought in town.

Now, when we go out in the morning and evening, we no longer need to borrow a car from the village.

Wen Yuyu got on the oxcart, waved to Liu Shi, and the ox carried the two of them out of the village.

Standing outside the gate, Liu watched the oxcart drive away before wiping away her tears and closing the gate.

Wen Dazhuang and his daughter traveled by cart to the town first, found an inn to stay in, and then got up early the next day to continue their journey to the county town. Because the oxcart was carrying a lot of things, it took them three days to travel from home to reach the county town.

Dad, the county town is really big.

Wen Yuyu got on the oxcart and looked around at the street.

Well, it's definitely better than the ones in town.

This was Wen Dazhuang's second time visiting the county town, so he still remembered where his daughter-in-law's shop was located.

The two drove the oxcart to the front of the shop, and when they looked up, they saw that the signboard on the door had been changed.

Lin He'er is helping out at the shop right now. Her own shop is bustling with customers every day.

After seeing the guests off, I looked up and saw an oxcart parked in front of the shop.

The people sitting in the car weren't her father-in-law and sister-in-law.

Dad, Sister Yuyu, you've arrived.

Lin He'er came out from behind the counter and went to the door to greet them.

Wen Dazhuang hadn't seen his daughter-in-law for over a year. The last time they met was when they went back to Xiaoyang Village for the Spring Festival. Now, his daughter-in-law looked to be in good health.

He'er, there seem to be quite a few people in the shop. You go ahead and do your work, we'll wait at the door.

Wen Dazhuang noticed that more people had entered the shop.

It's alright, Dad. I can handle it all by myself.

"Come on, come with me to my house," Lin He'er told Cao'er back at the shop, then rode in Wen Dazhuang's oxcart back to her house in Songnan Lane.

When we arrived at Dad's place, luckily the alley was wide enough that the oxcart could fit through.

Lin He'er gave Wen Dazhuang directions all the way, and drove the oxcart to his doorstep.

Granny Li, open the door, I'm back.

Lin He'er raised her hand and knocked on the door.

When Madam Li heard that her wife had returned, she opened the gate to the courtyard.

Madam, why are you back at this hour?

Your family is here; could you help carry some of their things into the yard?

Lin He'er saw a lot of things on the oxcart on the way, and guessed that besides Wen Yuyu's luggage, it was the things her mother-in-law had brought for the two of them.

Wen Dazhuang parked the oxcart at the gate of the courtyard, and everyone put their things in the front yard together.

Sister Yuyu, I've already prepared your room. You and Granny Li can go put your luggage away.

Father, please sit down first. I'll have Granny Li go to the county school to call my husband back later.

This was Wen Dazhuang's first time visiting his son's new home. He was so excited that he couldn't sit still, so he told his daughter-in-law to take care of things while he strolled around the yard.

Alright, Father, you stay in the courtyard and keep watch. I'll go and call my husband myself.

Lin He'er went out and headed towards the county school.

Since Wen Yuning started studying at the county school, Lin He'er has never been to the county school.

Today, as I walked to the entrance of the county school, I noticed that the school was quite large.

I went up the steps to the door, knocked, and someone came out.

Madam, are you here at the county school to see someone?

Could you please call a student named Wen Yuning and tell him that someone from his family has come to visit?

Okay, madam, please wait a moment.

The old man who opened the door replied to Lin He'er and went to call someone for her.

Before long, Lin He'er saw Wen Yuning come out of the county school.

He'er, who's come to the house?

Wen Yuning was unaware that his wife had written a letter back to Xiaoyang Village, so he hadn't yet figured out who had come.

Go ask the county school for a half-day leave. Dad and Sister Yuyu are coming. We'll chat on the way.

After listening to his wife's words, Wen Yuning asked his teacher for half a day's leave and walked home with Lin He'er.

Brother Wen, I wrote back home a few days ago, hoping that Sister Yuyu could come and help out at the shop.

She's still so young; she can't stay home all the time.

Wen Yuning understood what his wife meant. When the two of them went back home for the New Year, he saw his second sister always working hard at home and caring a lot about what outsiders thought.

It seems that the fact that he is now willing to move on shows that he has overcome that mental hurdle.

Thank you, He'er. I know you're doing this for my second sister's sake.

The two returned home and found Wen Dazhuang still watching over the whole yard.

Is Saburo back?

Dad, you've traveled for so long, sit down and rest.

Wen Dazhuang listened to his son's advice and went to sit in the backyard with him.

Father, this time when we brought Second Sister here, could she stay in the county town for a while?

Lin He'er asked her father-in-law a question.

"No, no," Wen Dazhuang waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this.

Our rice hasn't been harvested yet. I need to go back and help your mother harvest the rice before we plant wheat!

Wen Dazhuang said that he brought his daughter here this time and he would only stay for one night. He would have to rush back tomorrow.

Lin He'er expressed her regret over this.

Now that we have plenty of money, there's absolutely no need for my mother-in-law and her husband to go to the fields to work.

This matter can't be explained in a short time. Let's discuss it with Wen Yuning and then find a way to persuade the old couple during the New Year.

In the latter half of the day, Lin He'er went to the shop to help out again, leaving Wen Yuning at home to chat with the two of them.

In the evening, Lin He'er specially booked a table at Ruyi Restaurant and had it delivered to her home as a welcome dinner for her father-in-law and sister-in-law.

Wen Dazhuang stayed in the county town for a day, and then drove his oxcart back to Xiaoyang Village early in the morning.

After seeing Wen Dazhuang off, the group naturally went back to work on the shop's affairs.
