After the meal, the members of the Jing generation cleaned up the mess.

Several elders were chatting with Gao Shujing about the latest situation of Yu Rujia and the others.

Behind Yu Rujia and Gao Shujing's house was a cliff, and on the cliff was a forest. The forest was about 100 meters away from the Xia family's house. If the Xia family wanted to see Yu Rujia and the children, they could hide in that forest and see them.

The Xia family often went there; the distance of nearly 100 meters was enough for them to see Yu Rujia and the others, who were lively and energetic. This was what they were most satisfied with.

Xu Xiangyue: "I saw Duoxi walking while holding onto the wall a few days ago. He is only eight months old and he can walk by himself. This child is really strong."

Gao Shujing: "He eats two big bowls of meat porridge at every meal, and sometimes he also eats steamed egg custard. He's like a calf, with very strong calves."

Xia Jingsheng stopped what he was doing: "Eating so much? Duofu only ate a little over half a bowl of egg custard and drank milk back then. Is it okay for Duoxi to eat so much?"

Gao Shujing: "You all know Rujia's medical skills. She said Duoxi is fine. Duoxi's appetite has increased dramatically in the past month or so. When he gets fussy, I can't even hold him. With that much strength, it's normal for him to eat so much."

“His three older brothers eat more than him. Duofu’s appetite is bigger than my mother’s. In another two years, he might catch up with me.”

Gao Shujing was a martial artist, which required a lot of energy; he ate three bowls of rice per meal.

Duofu eats two bowls of rice per meal. The little guy is not even three and a half years old, yet he can eat so much. In addition, their meals are full of oil and fat, so Duofu's appetite is comparable to that of an average adult male in the south.

Even eight-month-old Duoxi eats as much as an average adult woman from the South.

Xia Yuanqiang: "They are at the age where they are growing, so it's normal for them to eat more. You should ask Rujia to keep an eye on them and not let them overeat."

The Xia family was worried that the children would overeat, but Han Meifeng had a rather unique perspective: "They eat so much, can you and Rujia afford it?"

They really have an enormous appetite; none of the children she raises can eat as much as they do. Han Meifeng was worried that Yu Rujia would be making her suffer by raising her nephews.

Having been here for two or three months, she knew how hard it was to earn money and how difficult it was to get food in the countryside. Without the extra support from Yu Rujia and Gao Shujing, with their work points reduced by half, they would have a hard time even getting enough to eat, let alone anything else.

Even if Yu Rujia and the others' income doesn't have to be halved, if they eat a little more and buy a few more clothes, the money will be gone.

Han Meijia's concern was not unfounded. If it weren't for Yu Rujia's spatial ability and Gao Shujing's support from Xia Taishun, and the two of them being capable, they simply couldn't afford to feed six big eaters.

Yes, Yu Rujia herself is a big eater, even the one who eats the most among the six. Because she possesses internal energy, even though she doesn't usually use martial arts, she still expends more energy than the average person.

Gao Shujing: "Second Aunt, don't worry, we have enough money. I work as a repairman in the team, and I earn at least twenty or thirty yuan a month. I can also get some meat from the mountains and the water. In addition, I brought money and coupons from home, which is enough to support them."

Han Meijia: "There aren't many prey on the outer edge of the mountain. You're not going to go to the inner edge, are you? That's too dangerous. Money is just an external thing; safety is the most important thing."

"If there isn't enough money, let them eat less and make ends meet. Don't take any risks."

The fact that his nephews are starving is a minor matter; the key is that Gao Shujing must not get into trouble, otherwise Yu Rujia will definitely suffer.

Gao Shujing: "We don't lack money now. My dad will send money over later. He has a high salary, and with his allowance, he gets two or three hundred yuan a month. We won't go hungry. We don't need to worry about money."

Before National Day even arrived, an uninvited guest came to Yu Rujia's home.

The newcomer's eyes practically reached to the sky. Yu Rujia knew the newcomer meant no good, so she didn't let her into the house, but left her outside the courtyard gate to talk.

This person was Huang Jingbei's wife, Wan Qiuju: "I heard you cured someone who had been paralyzed in bed for one or two years? Your medical skills are passable. Pack your things and come with me to the city."

“If you cure my mother, I’ll give you ten yuan for the consultation. It would take you at least several months to earn that much in the countryside, right? You can earn it in just a few days at my house. You’re getting a good deal.”

Not long after Huang Jingbei was fired from the factory, he took his wife and daughter back to the countryside.

Wan Qiuju was a daughter born late in life and was doted on by her parents, which fostered her willful and capricious nature.

Her parents were worried that she would be bullied, so they specifically chose Huang Jingbei, an easy-to-manage countryman, to marry her, and even found Huang Jingbei a temporary job.

After Wan Qiuju got married, she continued to live with Huang Jingbei in the Wan family home, and often ordered her two sisters-in-law to serve the couple, which infuriated her two brothers-in-law.

Wan Qiuju's parents had tried to find her a job before, but having been pampered since childhood, she couldn't stand the hardship of working and sold her job without discussing it with her family, which infuriated her parents.

In the city, jobs are limited to specific individuals, so when Huang Jingbei appeared, it was already quite good that Wan's parents were able to find him a temporary job.

She had planned to hand over the job to Huang Jingbei when her father retired, but her two older brothers tricked her, and the job ended up with another sister-in-law. Huang Jingbei remained a temporary worker.

Because Wan's mother gave birth to her daughter at an advanced age, her health was weak, and she had long since handed over her work to her son.

When Wan's father was alive, Wan Qiuju and her husband lived a comfortable life and treated their two sisters-in-law like servants.

After Mr. Wan passed away, Mrs. Wan was overcome with grief, and her condition worsened, leaving her bedridden. With both sets of brothers and sisters-in-law working and their children attending school, Mrs. Wan could only ask Wan Qiuju for help when needed.

Wan Qiuju, who found even going to work tiring, was in no condition to take care of others. After only a few hours, she made an excuse that her children were too old and there was no room in the house, so she moved out.

The Wan family's house was only fifty or sixty square meters, divided into four rooms. There was also an elderly person living there, two pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law, their children, and Wan Qiuju's family of three. It was indeed a bit cramped.

She hadn't complained about the cramped space before, but it was only when Wan's mother became seriously ill and paralyzed in bed that she complained about the cramped space and wanted to move out. The Wan family members weren't fools, and they didn't care about Wan Qiuju after that.

Before she moved out, the Huang family would give them a subsidy of five yuan per month, and Wan's mother would also give Wan Qiuju and her husband twenty yuan per month.

They don't have to buy their own food; the Huang family provides it, and their brother and sister-in-law buy it for them. The three of them have several tens of yuan each month as pocket money.

After moving out, they had to pay rent. The Wan family's subsidy was gone, and the Huang family paid for all their food and drink. With Huang Jingbei's temporary wages and the five yuan subsidy from the Huang family, their quality of life wasn't too bad, except they had less pocket money.

But a monthly allowance of twenty or thirty yuan is still enough for the family of three to live a carefree life in the city.
