After being scolded by Lu Yunqi, Lu Rong's mind cleared up a bit.

Qiao Wanyue was too lazy to care about Lu Rong.

If she's not thinking clearly...

She can go out and start her own business.

Staying with the Lu family now avoids some unnecessary trouble. This era is still cruel to women, especially young widows like her.

There's always gossip around a widow's door.

In this day and age, you need a letter of introduction to go out. You'll need one for the college entrance exam too. If she leaves Xiahe Village, she might not have the same good life as she does now, and she might not meet people as understanding as Lu Rong.

Life is good now.

Qiao Wanyue was very content.

Lu Rong cooked dinner. Knowing she had made a mistake, she became more ingratiating towards Lu's sister-in-law and Qiao Wanyue. She even added extra oil to the cooking. The two women knew what she was doing and didn't expose Lu Rong.

night

Lu Hui went to sleep with his parents. Lu Rong lay in the room, looking at the empty room, and felt a sense of comfort she had never felt before.

My son's words kept echoing in my mind.

Over the years, she has suffered pain and regret, and has also wondered why she insisted on taking Yang Lin as her son-in-law. If she hadn't chosen to let Yang Lin marry into her family.

Will the outcome be different?

Actually, that's not the case—

If she had stood up for her child the first time Yang Lin showed favoritism.

When Yang Lin first challenged his bottom line, she stood up and confronted him.

Yunqi made a good point.

Yang Lin was certain that she wouldn't dare divorce him or kick him out.

It wasn't that she was reluctant to divorce him, nor that she was reluctant to kick him out.

She thinks about things more than she thinks about them.

Yunqi could disregard everything, but she, as a mother, could not ignore her son's life or death.

Yang Lin is a menace.

That should be resolved.

Lu Rong's mind was racing, but he couldn't come up with a plan.

My consciousness grew weaker and weaker until I finally fell asleep.

Day 2

Lu Yunqi got up early to go to work. He had been free for several days, and now that he was back, he had to go to work on time.

Sister-in-law Lu continued to rest.

Qiao Wanyue got up and tidied up. Lu Rong had prepared the meal. Her eyes were red, and it was obvious that she had been crying.

Qiao Wanyue pretended not to see it and continued to talk to her with a smile.

Yesterday's events were as if they had never happened.

After eating, she went to the team headquarters.

The women were quick and efficient; the basic shape of the mooncakes was already done.

They can only be sold in boxes.

"Wanyue, when would be a good time to sell?" Secretary Guo asked as he came over.

Qiao Wanyue thought for a moment, "We'll send it over two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Secretary Guo nodded.

After a few days of getting used to each other, the women were able to perform independently.

Qiao Wanyue only offered guidance occasionally.

She wandered back and forth between the mooncake workshop and the dried vegetable section.
