After leaving Wu Xiucai's place, Zhao Dahua returned to Zhao Pozi's. The old woman asked in surprise, "Dahua, didn't you go back to your mother-in-law's?"

Zhao Dahua mumbled, "Mother, I walked around the village again and thought about it. I think I should take this bracelet back to my mother-in-law."

Granny Zhao frowned upon hearing this but did not ask, "Is your mother-in-law making things difficult for you again? Tell her to come and see your mother."

Zhao Dahua quickly waved her hand and said, "No, it was just my own idea. Never mind, I won't say anymore. Mom, I'm a little hungry. Can you get me something good to eat?"

"You're married but still have such a sweet tooth. Alright, Mother will go get it for you right now." Granny Zhao smiled indulgently, then got up and went to the kitchen.

Seeing Granny Zhao busy in the kitchen, Zhao Dahua went into Granny Zhao's room and started rummaging through the drawers and cabinets. Soon she found the silver bracelet. She was overjoyed and put it on her wrist, looking at it again and again. It was indeed very beautiful.

Afraid of being discovered by the old woman, she hastily threw the other things into the cupboard and ran away.

"Where are you rushing off to, you silly girl? Didn't you want to eat?" Seeing Zhao Dahua running outside, Granny Zhao hurriedly chased after her from the kitchen, calling out.

"I'm not eating anymore, Mother," Zhao Dahua replied before running out. Grandma Zhao shook her head helplessly, "This child is so impulsive."

After saying that, she went back to the kitchen to cook. Even if the child didn't want to eat, she had to. That unfilial daughter-in-law was cooking at Lao Mo's house and didn't care about her poor mother-in-law. It was really despicable!

As fate would have it, Zhao Dahua was rushing out when she bumped into Zhao Dazui, who was about to come in.

It turned out that Zhao Dazui had been thinking about it at home and felt something was wrong, so he decided to go to Zhao Pozi's place to ask her. That's when he ran into Zhao Dahua.

She immediately noticed the bracelet on Zhao Dahua's wrist, so she grabbed it and pulled it off, saying, "Last night you acted all innocent and pretended not to know, but today you're wearing it on your own wrist."

"Give it to me now!" Zhao Dahua hurriedly tried to grab it, but Zhao Dazui dodged her.

Zhang Dazui said fiercely, "You little hussy, you better watch yourself, or you'll regret it." After saying that, he took the bracelet, turned around, and went home, with Da Hua following helplessly behind.

Wu Yong waited and waited at home, but Zhao Dahua didn't come even when it got dark. He was very frustrated. It seemed that this woman was useless and a good-for-nothing!

Putting aside the dramatic events that happened at home that day, Li Rouniang had worked diligently for the Mo family for a month, and today Old Man Mo paid her her wages.

Li Rouniang took a look and quickly said, "This is too much, Uncle Mo."

"Where is the extra? This is what you deserve, take it quickly," Old Man Mo said with a smile.

“Didn’t we agree on 200 coins a month? You’ve almost reached 300 coins.” Li Rou Niang quickly declined.

"Yes, we originally agreed on 200 coins, just to make sure you took care of everything for the child. But look how busy you are, not only taking care of the child, but also cleaning the house and cooking for us. Of course, we should give you more, otherwise my conscience won't allow it," Old Man Mo said with a smile.

He was very satisfied with Li Rou Niang: she loved children, took good care of Xiao Shan, making him chubby and healthy; she was also diligent, keeping the child clean and tidy; not to mention, she managed everything at home and outside perfectly. It seems the old saying is true: a family definitely needs a woman.

"This~" Li Rouniang was a little embarrassed.

However, having spent these past few days with Old Man Mo, she knew his temperament. If she refused, it would only anger him. So she nodded and said, "Alright, then I'll take it. I'll go to town in a couple of days to buy some fabric to make clothes for you and Little Brother Mo."

Yes, Mo Bei is three years younger than Li Rou Niang.

"Alright, I haven't worn new clothes in a long time either," Old Man Mo agreed cheerfully.

"Mom, come quick! Uncle Mo has killed a wild boar!" Erni shouted from the doorway.

Li Rouniang went outside and saw that Mo Bei had killed a wild boar. She quickly went to help him.

"Oh, no need, don't get your clothes dirty." After spending a month together, Mo Bei's initial awkwardness towards Li Rou Niang had long since disappeared. Now, he felt no pressure interacting with her, as if he were talking to a friendly older sister next door.

"This wild boar is big enough for several meals," Li Rouniang remarked.

“We can’t possibly eat all of this. Why don’t you take some back, Rou Niang, and let Mo Bei take the rest to town to sell?” Old Man Mo said as he came out.

"How could I possibly accept that?" Li Rongniang quickly declined.

"Isn't that being too formal?" Old Man Mo was a little unhappy. He took a knife from the kitchen and gave it to Mo Bei. Mo Bei cut a large piece of pork leg for Li Rou Niang.

Old Man Mo complained, "How is Rou Niang going to carry such a big piece of meat back? You help Rou Niang carry it back."

Li Rouniang quickly said, "No need, no need, I can do it myself." As she spoke, she hurriedly reached for the pig's leg in Mo Bei's hand, but accidentally touched Mo Bei's hand. Mo Bei pulled away as if he had been electrocuted, and his face immediately turned red.

"By the way, Mo Bei, I was just talking to Uncle Mo about going to town to buy some fabric to make clothes for you two. What color do you like?" Li Rou Niang didn't notice anything unusual about Mo Bei.

"Anything is fine, just dark colors," Mo Bei answered honestly, still a little uneasy.

Li Rouniang didn't realize that Mo Bei's behavior was normal, and nodded.

“Mo Bei was just about to deliver pork, so let him buy it and bring it back. That way, you won’t have to make another trip,” Old Man Mo said with a smile.

"How could I possibly accept that? Besides, didn't we agree that I would buy it for you?" Li Rouniang thought that she had charged an extra hundred coins, so she should be the one to pay for it!

"How about this, you and Mo Bei go together tomorrow!" Old Man Mo suggested, thinking that women are more meticulous and it wouldn't be good if Mo Bei bought the items herself.

Mo Bei instinctively looked at Li Rouniang, who nodded without objection. Mo Bei lowered his head and remained silent.

In the end, Li Rouniang didn't take the pig's leg home. Instead, she secretly put it in her spatial storage. Take it home? Dream on! Wouldn't that just benefit Granny Zhao?

"Mom, are you taking us to town again tomorrow?" Zhao Erni asked on the way home.

"Tomorrow won't work. Tomorrow, Mother mainly wants to buy some fabric so that she can make a few more outfits for our eldest and second daughters, okay?" Li Rouniang thought that Mo Bei still had to go sell pork, so she would buy the fabric and come back. She didn't plan to spend a long time wandering around the town, especially since Xiaoshan was waiting at home.

"Okay then, can Erni and I still come to Grandpa Mo's place tomorrow?" Dani asked. She didn't want to stay at home. She thought her grandmother was scary, while Grandpa Mo, who wasn't related to her by blood, was much more approachable.
