The first floor is used as a small kitchen and study, and the second floor is the room for Qian's mother and Tong Wen Yao. In another room, the first floor is where Tong Wen Yao and Tong Bo Wen Jiang live, and the second floor is where Cui's mother, Tong Hong, and Xin'er live.

This place is not as good as the capital, so we cannot allocate a courtyard for each person. Now it is considered good enough for each person to have a room.

Tong Wen Yao saw Qian's mother coming down the stairs. Her belly was very big. She calculated that she would be giving birth soon.

"Yao'er, I haven't seen you for so many days. You've lost a lot of weight."

Tong Wenyao stood up and walked over, holding Qian's mother's hand and said, "Mom, I missed you so much!" She felt a touch on her head. It was Qian's mother touching her hair. "You kid, you didn't come back until the New Year."

After hearing this, Tong Wenyao hurriedly said, "Hasn't this delayed me from buying New Year's goods for you? Xing'er, go get the gifts I bought for them."

Qian's mother pulled Tong Wen Yao to sit on the sofa. This sofa was made according to the drawing given by Tong Wen Yao. Qian's mother was not satisfied at first, but after seeing the finished product, she liked it very much. Even Cui's mother ordered a set of sofas and put them in her room after seeing it.

Cui's mother asked from the side, "Have you eaten? If not, ask them to bring some food up."

"Second Aunt, we had dinner in the county when we came back, so we're still full." Xing'er brought the things up, and Tong Wenyao took out the kingfisher hairpin and gave it to Qian's mother, "Mom, this is a gold and jade dragonfly hairpin I bought for you." When Qian's mother saw it, the corners of her mouth rose, but she still said, "Mom is old, what else do I need a hairpin!"

After hearing this, Cui's mother said, "You're pregnant with another one, how can you be old?" Xin'er ignored what they said and shouted directly, "Sister, do you have one for me?"

Tong Wenyao took out a ragdoll cat from inside and handed it to her. This was the one she got from the space. When Xin'er saw it, she screamed, "Sister, this one you bought for me is so beautiful and cute."

Tong Wenyao scratched her nose and asked, "Do you like it?" Xin'er hugged the doll and nodded, "I like it."

Tong Wenyao took out another one and gave it to Cui's mother, saying, "Second Aunt, this is a Canaan incense wood bracelet inlaid with gold for you."

Mother Cui took it and looked at it, then said happily, "Our Yao'er is so caring that she bought me this bracelet." When she put it on, it made her skin look white and tender.

"I said this would suit Second Aunt. Look, it's so beautiful."

Second Aunt's cheeks were a little red, her eyes narrowed with laughter, and she hugged Tong Wenyao and said, "Yao'er still loves me. Your uncle has never bought anything for me!"

Tong Hong was about to step over the threshold, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but want to withdraw. Xin'er, who had sharp eyes, saw him and shouted, "Dad, come quickly, sister bought us gifts."

Tong Hong smiled and said, "I'm already this old, how can I let the younger generation buy me gifts?"

Tong Wenyao took out a knee pad from the table and gave it to him, saying, "Second Uncle, it's cold now and your knee hasn't fully healed yet. I bought some knee pads. This one is made of deerskin and has fox fur sewn inside, so it's warm."

Tong Hong was a little embarrassed to accept it. When Cui's mother saw it, she took it directly and said, "Yao'er, take it. Why are you so shy?"

"Thank you, Yao'er! It must have cost you a lot of money!" Tong Wenyao laughed after hearing this, "No, you don't know, Second Uncle, I followed the county magistrate to suppress the bandits, and he rewarded me with a lot of silver."

Although this was half true and half false, it was true that Ji Shikang gave her silver. He gave her one-tenth of the money from the bandits' warehouse, so now she was also a small wealthy woman.

In the evening, the whole family was sitting in the living room for dinner, and at this time the village chief Wu Qing came to visit. After looking at each other, Qian's mother and Cui's mother asked Lan Cui and Lan Hua to sit at two tables, one for the men and one for the women. In the past, the house was small and they could not follow the rules, but now that they had space, they would naturally abide by them.

A screen was put up between the two tables to block the view. Wu Qing came forward with a cane, "Brother Tong, you guys are having dinner! I'll come find you later!" It's no wonder that he came early. According to the usual dinner time, people usually eat at around five o'clock. He came at around four o'clock and saw the Tong family having dinner.

Because Tong Wen Yao came back today, the meal was prepared a little early. Wu Qing originally thought that he would go back to eat after the talk, but he didn't expect to run into them having dinner as soon as he arrived at Tong's house.

His old face flushed, making it seem like he had come here specifically to wait for the food to be ready. Just as he was turning to go back, Tong Hong called out to him, "Uncle Wu, since you're here, let's eat together!"

Wu Qing waved his hand after hearing this and walked back on his crutches. Tong Bo glanced at Wen Jiang, who immediately said, "Grandpa Qing, come and have dinner. Today we have my favorite braised pork ribs."

He walked to Wu Qing and took his arm as they walked towards the dining table.

"That's so embarrassing! It's not right, it's not right."

Xin'er ran out from the living room and said, "Grandpa Wu, why don't you try our food and see if it's delicious!"

"Oh, okay, okay."

Lan Cui took out a set of dishes and set the table, then pulled out a chair.

Wu Qing looked at the fish on the table and couldn't help but recall the scene when the Tong family came here. They were penniless at that time, but now they can eat fish and meat, and have built such a beautiful house. Even many people in the village have benefited from it and have a good New Year.

Tong Hong took out some good wine, poured half a cup into his bowl, and said, "Uncle Qing, don't think I'm stingy. I'll pour you more wine, or Aunt Yan will scold me again later." Wu Qing waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

When Tong Hong raised his glass and said, "Uncle Wu, let's drink, clink glasses." Wu Qing picked up his glass and clinked glasses with him. After taking a sip, his throat instantly felt like a sweet rain, strong but not choking. "Good wine!"

"Hahahaha, this wine of mine was bought by Bo Ge'er from the city! It cost me a lot of money, and now that I see you here, I'm taking it out to drink with you."

Good wine can drive away the cold, and it is also a wonderful thing to brew wine and enjoy the snow on this snowy day!

Wu Qing nodded after hearing this and said, "Yes, it is really beautiful to be able to enjoy the snow."

After drinking wine and eating meat, Wu Qing casually said, "Nowadays, wild boars from the back mountain are coming down frequently. I wonder what Brother Hong thinks!"

Tong Wen Yao was sitting in the cubicle when she heard Grandpa Qing say that wild boars were coming down the mountain. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Their house had a wall, but if wild boars came down the mountain in groups, their house would be the first line of defense. If the wild boars bypassed them, the villagers would also suffer. After the disaster, could they still remain unscathed?

Obviously not, so when Grandpa Qing said that the wild boar was coming down the mountain, her first thought was to set a trap and kill the wild boar.
