Big Moo is the name of the new cow we got at home. It was named that because it mooes very loudly every day.

As an outsider, Lu Song never expected to live in such a nice house. He always felt indebted to Da Wa's family, so he would eagerly do chores and help out. Qin San Niang didn't stop him, knowing that he was living alone and inevitably felt anxious and uneasy. This made him feel more at ease. However, she tried her best to treat everyone equally in terms of food, clothing, and shelter. As long as the boy was grateful, Qin San Niang didn't feel like she was losing out!

After the water in the pot boiled, she used a spatula to mash the fish. When the broth turned milky white, she strained it through a sieve to obtain a delicious fish soup. Once the wontons were wrapped, she added them to the fish soup, cooked them, and then sprinkled them with chopped green onions, a touch of plum vinegar, and castor oil. A pot of delicious fish soup wontons was ready!

She deliberately made a little extra wontons. Qin San Niang took out three bowls, filled them to the brim, and asked Da Wa and Xiao Er to deliver them to Wu Chunhua and the others.

Since moving into the new house, the families have been eating separately, but they will share any delicious food they make.

For dinner, the Qin family enjoyed hot and delicious fish soup wontons that were so good they made you want to swallow your tongue! Everyone ate until their bellies were round, and the children were so full they could barely get up from their stools.

Mrs. Liu had never eaten such delicious wontons before, and she was quite full today.

Today, when she went to the field, she was surprised to find that her rice seedlings were not only growing more vigorously than others', but also taller! Many elderly men and women also noticed this and came over to see, their eyes filled with disbelief. They never imagined that rice grown this way would grow so well!

Some knowledgeable old farmers even guaranteed that their rice would have a bumper harvest, which made Liu very happy.

Of course, there were also quite a few gossipy people who were making sarcastic remarks, saying things like, "What are you talking about? The barnyard grass on that mountain grows well, but have you seen any fruit?" These people were none other than Liu Meixiang and others who didn't get along with Qin San Niang and the others.

Of course, Liu ignored them, but they didn't get anything good either. After being scolded by Wu Chunhua, they slunk away.

Their land is all in the same area, and they usually work together to help each other out, otherwise there would be too few men in the family! Wu Chunhua has already treated Da Wa and his children as her own juniors, and she can't wait for these kids to grow up quickly and become tall and strong!

Liu Meixiang herself was also starting to have doubts. Her husband hadn't returned for almost three months, not even during the busy farming season! At first, she was furious, cursing Chen Guang'an for not caring about anything and wishing he were dead out there! But as time went on, she couldn't help but worry. Could something really have happened to him this time? But as a woman, she had nowhere to look for him, so she took a bunch of vegetables to the village head's house, hoping Chen Sheng could help her search.

Ever since the incident, the village head's wife, Wang, would spit on her whenever she saw her. According to Wang, anyone who dared to lay a finger on her grandson would be utterly annihilated! This time, when she saw Liu Meixiang come to her house seeking help from her husband, Wang was still unfriendly. She snorted and turned away!

Chen Sheng was also seething with anger, but as the village head, he couldn't be so petty. Besides, Chen Guang'an was a member of the Chen clan, and it wouldn't be right for him not to help. So, he asked an acquaintance to inquire at the yamen.

The result was quite surprising. It was said that an arrest warrant for Chen Guang'an had been issued in Jiangzhou City. He was suspected of trafficking women and children, and there was both witness testimony and physical evidence, all of which was provided by Zheng Mazi.

The constables instructed that if he appeared in the village, they must immediately kidnap him and bring him to the yamen to report! Even the county magistrate was furious that such a heinous criminal had appeared in his jurisdiction.

Chen Sheng was scolded for no reason, so he returned to the village in a rage and threw the arrest warrant issued by the government at Liu Meixiang's face.

Liu Meixiang looked puzzled, picked up the paper, and froze on the spot! It contained a drawing of her own husband! Only then did she realize that Chen Guang'an was indeed involved in human trafficking. She collapsed to the ground, crying and cursing…

From then on, Liu Meixiang gave up the search. Her life became quite good afterward; she could hire people to cultivate her fields for a few coins. She could also sell goods on the main road. Before long, she was even more financially secure than before!

Sigh! What's the point of having a man now? It's better if he doesn't come back!

But she just couldn't stand Qin San Niang and the others! Why should they get to live such a good life? She wanted that kind of life too!

Qin San Niang treated these things as jokes; to her own family, Chen Guang'an was still a ticking time bomb. But having witnessed her methods, and with the government's arrest warrant in hand, she estimated that Chen Guang'an would have to go into hiding for a few years until things calmed down.

One month later

As the weather gradually warmed up, everyone in the Qin family changed into summer clothes.

Ten days ago, when Mu Chun appeared at her doorstep, Qin San Niang knew that Si Li Ren had safely left Jiangzhou.

During this time, in order to avoid being discovered, they had no contact with each other, and Qin San Niang had been on tenterhooks the whole time! Now, she can finally relax!

As for Chen Yushan, who had been eagerly waiting to see Sili Ren turn into a defeated dog, he panicked upon hearing his subordinate's report! A teacup flew past swiftly, scattering shards all over the floor!

"What did you say?! Siji Pastry Shop has a new owner? When did this happen? Weren't you always guarding the yamen?" Chen Yushan asked angrily.

He had known for a long time that the Si family was doomed. He had been waiting to see the Si family fall. Without his backing, Si Liren was like an ant to him, easy to crush.

“Boss…we’ve been keeping an eye on this! We don’t know what happened, but it’s said that Manager Si gave the shop to this new owner.”

The subordinates were also wronged. They hadn't eaten or slept during this time and had been lying in ambush around Si Ji Pastry Shop, but they hadn't seen any brokers coming or going!

"Fools! Do you really think that buying and selling shops can only be done through brokers?" By now, Chen Yushan had a general idea of ​​how they operated.

Nowadays, the sale of ordinary houses and land usually requires going through a brokerage firm, but if you're familiar with the household registration officials in the county government, transferring ownership is a piece of cake! That old fox, Sili Ren!

What he didn't expect was that Sili Ren didn't care at all whether the shop would sell for a good price, since only in a brokerage firm could one get a good price!
