(Transmigration + Slow Romance + Female Side Character) Tong Wen Yao woke up one day to find herself transmigrated as the young lady of the Tong family.
She didn't enjoy the la...
Three years after her marriage, she gave birth to two boys, and in the sixth year, she gave birth to a little daughter. She has been exiled until now. She has been married for more than ten years and enjoyed wealth and glory for more than ten years. Now her exile is worth it!
After a while, Tong Wen Yao came to Qian's mother with two fish. She had just processed the internal organs and other things at the river bank, and now all she had to do was cook them.
When Cui's mother saw her coming back with the clay jar, she didn't want to pay attention to her. She said something to Qian's mother and returned to their team. It was no wonder that Cui's mother treated her like this. It was because she had done a series of bad things before, which made Cui's mother have no good impression of her!
But in the original owner's memory, the second aunt's family had helped their family a lot, and they all lived in the same house. Even on the way to exile, she took the initiative to carry the packages on her shoulders, while her mother carried the light packages.
It's just that when the officials were distributing food, the original owner thought that the second wife's family had two boys and would eat more food, so they cooked it separately! The original owner had done something wrong, and she had to clean up her mess.
Thinking of this, she said calmly, "Second Aunt, come over for dinner today. I just went to the river and caught something good!"
Mother Cui was surprised to hear this. She had insisted that we eat separately before, and now she was actually saying we should eat together? But thinking about her previous words, she couldn't help but feel angry. She said sarcastically, "Our two little boys can't afford your food!" After saying that, she wanted to leave.
Seeing this, Tong Wenyao quickly put down the pot and went to pull her over. "Second Aunt, I was wrong before. I was upset when I heard that my sister was enjoying the good life in Beijing. Now I have come to terms with it. Please forgive me!" Seeing her honesty, Cui's mother immediately calmed down.
Tong Wenyao saw the emotion on Second Aunt's face, so she quietly pulled her over to look at the clay pot. "Second Aunt, just now when I was filling water at the river bank, those two silly fish swam over and I just happened to catch them. They've been exiled for so long, eating black steamed buns for so long, I think my sisters and brothers must be ravenous."
Now that things had come to this, Cui's mother was no longer angry. Thinking about the lack of bird taste in her mouth in the past few days, she did not refuse and directly asked to come over to eat. She also said that she would go back to get some wild vegetables, as she had just dug up a lot of them.
Fortunately, Tong Wenyao had the foresight to step away from the group when she was scrambling for a spot, so they wouldn't smell the aroma. Cui's mother had already started the fire, but Zhenghong skipped that step and simply placed the clay pot on top. If Qian's mother hadn't been around, she would have added ginger. Fortunately, she had just come back from the road and spotted a lot of Sichuan peppercorns, which she picked to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor. She wanted to add ginger, but she was afraid they would notice. Remembering Qian's mother was pregnant, she secretly threw in a few red dates.
After Cui's mother returned, she hurriedly moved the things over, including the fire. Tong Wenxin followed her. Since being exiled, she had become timid and spoke in a low voice. Thinking of her former lively appearance, she sighed, waved her hands and shouted, "Xin'er, come here quickly." After hearing this, Tong Wenxin glanced at Cui's mother, and seeing that she agreed, she trotted over with the wild vegetables.
"Sister, here you go." She took a look at the wild vegetables and said with a smile, "I was just wondering why you hadn't brought the wild vegetables yet. We'll cook them and eat them together later." Tong Wenxin nodded after hearing this, and then sat aside waiting for the meal to start.
Mother Qian was pregnant and did not go to help Mother Cui move things over, but she asked Yao'er to do it. After putting the wild vegetables in, the fragrance in the earthenware jar slowly spread out. Tong Wenxin swallowed her saliva. She had not eaten meat since she was exiled, and this was all thanks to her sister!
Tong Wenyao used long chopsticks to stir the food in the clay pot, afraid that it would stick to the pot, and asked casually, "Why haven't Second Uncle and the others come back yet?"
Cui's mother had also moved the things over and sat aside, panting and wiping her sweat. When she heard what she said, she began to explain, "Your second uncle will probably be back soon. He said he went to the dense forest to look for game. He's been exiled for so long, and he probably won't have the strength to go on without meat."
She nodded after hearing this. The second uncle of the Tong family was named Tong Hong. When he followed his father to war a few years ago, he injured his leg on the battlefield. After he recovered, he was left with a problem with his legs and feet. He originally wanted to go to the battlefield, but was finally persuaded by his father to stay and take care of his family.
Qian's mother and Cui's mother were chatting with each other, and Xinxin was making a fire. Just when she was hesitating whether to go to the woods to call for help, the voices of her second uncle and brother came from inside!
Her heart finally settled down. She hurriedly called them over for dinner. Seeing that they had nothing in their hands, Cui's mother said nothing. She thought that even though they didn't catch any meat, at least they had fish to eat today.
"Yao'er, I went to the woods and dug out a few bird nests. We'll have meat to eat today!" Wen Jiang said this. He was also very fond of Tong Wen Yao. She stretched her head to look at the dozen or so bird eggs on the hem of her clothes and said with a smile, "That's great. I'll cook them later and save them for the journey."
Seeing her second uncle scratching his head, she hurriedly pulled his hand and said, "It's hot, and the animals probably won't come out. It doesn't matter if your second uncle can't catch any prey. Maybe he can catch some tonight."
"Brother Bo, why don't you come and eat?" The other eldest son of the second house was two years older than her brother. Wen Jiang was seven years old, younger than her, so they had a better relationship. However, Tong Bo would also bring her gifts when he went out.
Two fish, cooked in two clay pots, the whole family ate black steamed buns and drank fish soup. This meal made them full. Fortunately, Tong's mother did not ask where the red dates in the fish soup came from, which made her relax a little.
When Qian's mother saw the red dates in the fish soup, her eyes became moist. She thought that her second sister-in-law took out money to buy red dates to make soup to take care of her during her pregnancy. Cui's mother was also surprised to see the red dates in the soup, but when she thought about her eldest sister-in-law being pregnant, it was not surprising to prepare some red dates.
After lunch, they rested for a while, and then the officials had their people pack up and prepare to set off. The men walked in front, and the elderly, children and women walked behind. Tong Wenyao distributed the bird eggs cooked at noon to the four of them, one or two at a time, so that they could eat them if they were hungry on the road.
"I won't eat it, leave it for them." Second Uncle glanced at her and said lightly! Tong Wenyao frowned, "Second Uncle, you have to carry the most things now. If you don't have the strength, how can you walk to the border! So you should take it and eat it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she took the opportunity to stuff the candy into her second uncle's mouth. Her second uncle chewed it subconsciously. It tasted sweet and he looked at her with shock in his eyes.
"Uncle, this was kindly given to us by the people riding in the carriage we met on the road. Don't worry, our brothers have food too!" Seeing this, he stopped pushing and prepared to leave with two bird eggs in his pocket and his luggage on his back. Tong Wen Yao gave them candies and two bird eggs in turn. After they were at the front of the team, he put the package in his pocket and followed them!
She watched her uncle staggering, thinking that she would have a chance to see if his left foot could be healed.
