Coming from a rural background and being the eldest child in her family, Zhou Shuixian was still much more sensible than most girls, even though Zhao Cuihong and her husband weren't the type to spoil their daughter.

After marrying into the Wang family, she endured hardship for several years and is now capable of enduring hardship as well.

Therefore, compared to many women in the factory, Zhou Shuixian was more resilient and able to endure hardship.

They also cherish this job more than others.

She is usually the first to arrive at her post and the last to leave. She is also always willing to help her colleagues in the workshop if they need anything.

Therefore, despite coming from a rural background, she was not ostracized at the factory; on the contrary, she was quite popular, and her colleagues liked to be in her team.

For example, Miao Xiaohua, who just spoke to her, put in a lot of effort to secure the opportunity to be in the same group as Zhou Shuixian.

Zhou Shuixian was quick and strong; when sorting medicinal herbs, she would often fill two-thirds of a bamboo basket.

Even if Miao Xiaohua only completed one-third of the prescription, Zhou Shuixian wouldn't say anything, and would still deftly select the medicinal herbs according to the prescription.

Qian Sheng, from the provincial capital, and the Wang family finally made it over after three days.

At first, Li Chunmiao went with Wang Daniu to the commune to repair the irrigation canal. He called the other cows home, and after they had packed their things at home, they went to the village chief to get a letter of introduction.

However, when the village chief of Wangjia Village heard that Li Chunmiao was going to take his sons to the provincial capital to find Zhou Shuixian, he immediately objected.

Back then, the fight between the Wang and Zhou families was so fierce that it shook the heavens and the earth. They rarely saw the bride's family so tough, beating up the groom's family and taking their daughter back home.

The key point is that the Zhou family members are all incredibly powerful, and the Wang family simply couldn't withstand them.

The divorce was such a big deal back then, with people from both villages witnessing it and even signing a disassociation agreement. So what can the Wang family do if they come to make trouble now?

Moreover, when he went to a meeting at the commune before the New Year, he heard the production team leader mention that the Zhou family's son was now quite successful and had even gained recognition among the county leaders.

Therefore, he was naturally unwilling to issue a letter of introduction to the Wang family, fearing that the Wang family would not only cause trouble but also get themselves into trouble.

It might even involve their Wangjia Village.

Little did anyone know, Li Chunmiao was an unreasonable old shrew. Seeing that Village Chief Wang was unwilling to issue a letter of introduction, she started to loosen her belt and hugged Village Chief Wang.

While hugging him, he kept shouting, "The village chief is bullying people."

Village Chief Wang was unable to explain himself and was afraid that if word got out, it would ruin his reputation and tarnish his honor in his later years, so he could only issue a letter of introduction to the Wang family.

After receiving the letter of introduction, Li Chunmiao, along with her sons and Wang Dabao on their backs, set off on their journey.

Because they were frugal and unwilling to spend much money, the group walked to the commune to catch the bus to the county town.

Unexpectedly, I was a few minutes late and missed the bus that day, so I had to go back home and catch the bus early the next morning.

After rushing and changing trains along the way, asking for directions constantly, we finally arrived in the provincial capital.

In the provincial capital, the sight of five-story concrete buildings and the occasional cars and buses passing by on the streets astonished the Wang family. Their mouths were slightly agape, their eyes darting around, finding everything novel and fascinating.

Even the road under their feet was cleaner and smoother than the road in their home.

"Mom, the provincial capital is so great!"

Wang Erniu swallowed hard, and couldn't help but sigh: Everything here is better than home.

Wang Sanniu exclaimed, "Sleeping on the floor here is definitely more comfortable than sleeping on my bed at home!"

Wang Daniu was also stunned by the prosperity of the provincial capital. Standing in the city surrounded by skyscrapers, he felt a sense of inferiority from the bottom of his heart. He felt that he, poor and simple, was not worthy of being in such a noisy and prosperous place, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

Li Chunmiao listened to men her whole life and had never even been to the county town more than a few times.

Now, even in the provincial capital, they were astonished.

However, being older and having seen more, he quickly regained his composure.

Li Chunmiao patted Wang Erniu and Wang Sanniu on the back and said with a look of disgust, "You two good-for-nothing dogs, you think this is good?"

"Once our whole family has settled down in the provincial capital, that will be truly wonderful!"

"settle down?"

"Are we going to settle down in the provincial capital?"

...

The Wang family members were all shocked when they heard Li Chunmiao's words.

Looking at her sons' ignorant attitude, Li Chunmiao straightened her back and said proudly, "Your eldest sister-in-law, a woman, can make a name for herself in the provincial capital. There's no reason why you grown men can't even settle down!"

Before coming to the provincial capital, Li Chunmiao only wanted to make a scene, to reinstate Zhou Shuixian as a member of the Wang family, to make Zhou Shuixian obediently hand over her salary, and to get her eldest son a job.

When the time comes, she will return to the village and be the envy of everyone, as her son and daughter-in-law both have jobs in the provincial capital.

However, after arriving in the provincial capital, she suddenly didn't want to go back to the backward Wangjia Village.

Everything in Wangjia Village was dilapidated and gray, unlike the provincial capital, which was full of vitality, and even the faces of passersby were filled with confident and happy smiles.

It seems that as long as you live here, there is everything you can do.

So she made a decision: to settle down in the provincial capital!

Hearing their mother's words, the Wang family's cows, though excited, still spoke with some unease:

"Mom, will this work?"

Will my sister-in-law agree?

"whispering sound……"

When questioned by her son, Li Chunmiao smiled dismissively: "We can't even handle Zhou Shuixian, just one woman?"

Li Chunmiao wasn't stupid; she had specifically gone to Jianshan Brigade to inquire about information before setting off.

That old bitch Zhao Cuihong is at home.

The Zhou family's educated youth daughter-in-law, who had previously been the one who beat and cursed the most viciously and loved to use underhanded tricks, had gone back to Haicheng for the Spring Festival and hadn't returned yet.

The two little bitches from the Zhou family were also at home.

That brat from the Zhou family, I'm told he lives in the county town.

So, isn't Zhou Shuixian the only one who can be in the provincial capital?

Their whole family couldn't possibly make things difficult for Zhou Shuixian?

In the years before, wasn't Zhou Shuixian manipulated and bullied by the Wang family?

The reason they resisted at the time was simply because the Zhou family was backing them up.

Now, Zhou Jiayuan lives in Jianshan Brigade, and Zhou Shuixian is still being bullied by her family.

With this indomitable spirit, Li Chunmiao, along with her sons carrying Wang Dabao on their backs, set off to find Zhou Shuixian with great momentum.

However, after taking only a few steps, they realized that none of them knew where the provincial pharmaceutical factory was.

I had no choice but to ask my way along the way...

******

At the provincial pharmaceutical factory, as Zhou Shuixian carried a bamboo basket full of packaged Chinese medicinal herbs on her shoulder toward the production workshop, her partner Miao Xiaohua walked in from outside and said somewhat anxiously:

"Sister Shuixian, the gatekeeper just came over and said there are a few people holding a child at the factory gate. They say they are your in-laws and want to see you!"
