The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

Wu Daniu didn't say anything, but he did move, sending each person into the house one by one before preparing to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Du Mingwei hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, "Brother Da Niu, with such a thing happening at home, I want to stay a little longer."

Wu Daniu glanced at her, and Du Mingwei immediately lowered her head in a fluster, intending to say she would go back, when she heard him say, "Go home and cook in a bit."

"well."

Wu Daniu left, and Du Mingwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She couldn't help but think that Brother Da Niu had a bad temper and was already a bit fierce to people like her, so he must be even fiercer to people like Du Mingxian.

Xu Yulan came out of the house and was displeased to see that her son-in-law had left without even saying hello. "Mingwei, why did Da Niu leave? With such a thing happening at home, why didn't he stay to help?"

Du Mingwei hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "Mom, Brother Da Niu still has to go to the mountains. You know the whole family depends on him. If he doesn't work hard, how can he support the whole family?"

Xu Yulan felt terrible when she heard her daughter's words. "You shouldn't have arranged the marriage in the first place. Look at that whole family, all children. You'll have to take care of them all by yourself. When will it ever end?"

"Mom, it's alright. My younger brother and sister are still small. Things will get better. You have to believe me, Mom. Brother Da Niu will be very successful in the future."

Xu Yulan noticed that the hands that were gripping her arm had become much rougher, and felt even more sorry for her. "You child, you've never done any heavy work at home. Your hands used to be so soft and tender, but look at them now."

Du Mingwei was also sad, but thinking of the good days to come, she said, "Mother, don't worry, I am a lucky girl. Things will get better, and Brother Da Niu will get better too. There will definitely be a bunch of maids and servants to serve us in the future."

"Okay, Mother believes you."

Du Mingwei tugged at her arm and said sweetly, "When I live a good life in the future, I will never forget my mother."

“Mother knows you are a filial son, but you haven’t come back for so many days. We’re in the same village, and you haven’t left the house all day. Mother wants to go to you, but I’m afraid the villagers will say that I’m interfering in my daughter’s life.”

Du Mingwei felt a little sad thinking about what had happened recently, but she still smiled and said, "Brother Da Niu said I'm good-looking, and he doesn't like other men looking at me with lewd eyes, so I try to go out as little as possible."

"You should have a good talk with Da Niu. How can people stay at home all the time?"

"Okay, I'll go back and talk to Brother Da Niu."

Last time she vomited on Brother Da Niu's face, he was very angry. She coaxed him for a long time, and she humbled herself and served the whole family every day. Only in the last few days has Brother Da Niu's attitude towards her improved.

However, he was still cold at times, and he was no longer as gentle as before towards her, even going so far as to try different things to torment her in bed.

But things have been improving recently, and they will only get better in the future. She must make Brother Da Niu listen to her and dote on her. Then she will definitely let Du Mingxian have a good look at her.

That youngest member of the Wu family, they still haven't settled things. I don't know why they were so nice to Du Mingxian back then. And that woman next door, she's so annoying.

I wonder how Du Mingxian dealt with these people back then.

Du Mingxian, who was on Du Mingwei's mind, was now going to town with the group.

After leaving the village, Zhou felt a little embarrassed to have Xu Dazhuang carry her. "Brother, why don't you put me down?"

"Auntie, you're not feeling well, let my dad carry you so we can walk faster."

Before Zhou could say anything more, Du Mingxian advised, "Mother, let Uncle carry it. We can find a car when we get to town."

Zhou was wondering why they needed to find a car, but she didn't say it and could only silently obey the arrangement.

Upon arriving in town, seeing that the time was still manageable, the group decided to have a meal and went directly to a restaurant, where they booked a private room.

Zhou was restless, and Xu Dazhuang was also feeling uneasy. However, with Du Mingxian sitting there, he pretended to be calm and said, "Little sister, don't worry, I have money."

When Zhou was separated from her family, she was still young. She only remembered how many people were in her family, but she couldn't recognize them now. At that time, she didn't even remember her own name, only her nickname, which was Niu Niu.

"Brother, who are you..." Zhou asked tentatively. To her, everything before her was too unreal, as if it were all fake. She had been separated from her family for many years since childhood, and she never expected that her family would come to her door in middle age.

"I'm the eldest, and my second brother is gone too." Xu Dazhuang put on a sorrowful expression and refused to continue the conversation.

Xu Tingting hurriedly said, "Auntie, let me tell you these things. Grandma has been telling me these things before."

Zhou looked at Xu Tingting, her eyes filled with confusion.

“My second uncle passed away a few years ago, and my second aunt also passed away. They had no children. In our Xu family now... I am the only one. My grandfather passed away when I was eight years old.”

“From the time I was born until I had memories, I never stayed in one place for more than six months. Over the years, we have traveled all over the country, trying to find my aunt. Even if... Grandma said that even if Grandma is really gone, we still have to find out about her.”

"It's also thanks to God's mercy that Grandma's illness is getting worse and worse. Fortunately, we found out about you. If you go back and see Grandma, she will definitely be very happy."

Zhou felt guilty. Her family had been searching for her for so many years, traveling all over the country. She couldn't even imagine how they had managed to get by.

Guilt prevented her from noticing some details that were amiss.

She took Xu Tingting's hand and said, "Child, you've had a hard time all these years."

“Aunt, how could it be hard? Finding you was the obsession of the whole family. Now that we have found you, we can finally settle down. I am very happy and have fulfilled the last wish of my family.”

Du Mingxian looked at Xu Tingting and found that she was quite talented, eloquent, and capable of being both gentle and firm. Not bad at all. Then she turned to look at Xu Dazhuang. He was honest, but his performance this time was really good.

With her mother's matter resolved, she had no more worries.

Soon the waiter brought out the dishes, including meat, vegetables, and soup, a total of six dishes and four bowls of rice, which left Zhou speechless.

“Auntie, you can eat. We’ve made some money over the years. Now that we’ve settled down, we can open another shop. Things will get better.”

Zhou was a little tipsy, but she didn't eat right away after picking up her chopsticks. Instead, she quickly put a piece of rib on Du Mingxian's plate and said, "Mingxian, eat quickly."

Du Mingxian felt a surge of warmth in her heart and silently lowered her head to eat.

Zhou ate by herself, but didn't forget to put some on Du Mingxian's plate.

Xu Tingting ate by herself and then served Zhou Shi from behind.

As for Xu Dazhuang, he was probably too reserved and just kept eating his food in silence, so Xu Tingting had to smooth things over.

After finishing the meal, Xu Dazhuang paid the bill. "Let's find a horse-drawn carriage and head back to the county now."

"Does your home live in the county?" Zhou was not quite sure.
