Chapter 241 I'm not asking you to get mad

The sky was turning pale, the dawn was showing, and the morning mist lingering in the air had not yet dispersed.

Yesterday's spring rain had stopped, and the cool wind blew across the wet ground. Along with the strange cries of the blue crows outside the window, the washed vegetable garden in the yard revealed an intoxicating green color.

Hui Niang didn't sleep much all night. She got up early and went to the kitchen to work. Wei Shouzhong watched the fire in the stove from the side.

Yu Tingwan woke up when she heard a slight noise outside. She put on her clothes and went to the kitchen.

"Why did you get up so early? Did I disturb you?"

Hui Niang: "Go back and lie down."

Yu Tingwan said in a muffled voice: "I'll accompany you."

"If you're sleepy, sleep on the way."

Hui Niang forced a smile to hide her reluctance.

"Mom will make more dry food for you to take with you on the road."

"Alang, you won't starve, but if there's no village or store, it'll be hard to get something to eat. You can't go hungry."

She was very thoughtful.

"Take the sauce that we made earlier. Eat it with the dry food later."

She knew that Yu Tingwan loved pickled radishes, which were crispy and a little sweet.

She made a jar early in the morning and put it in a ceramic jar with a tightly closed lid.

This storage method can keep it for a long time.

The whole radish is washed and put in it. It can be eaten in about seven days. Take it out and cut it.

"I asked your father to take down the bacon hanging on the beam. It's good to stir-fry it, stew it in soup, or steam it directly."

Hui Niang saw that the girl's cotton coat was a little wrinkled, so she stepped forward to help straighten it out.

"They are all worthless and not very good. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for you to take them on the road, but I'm also afraid that you won't be able to taste them when you want to eat them later."

In her opinion, nothing is as good as home.

Yu Tingwan would never find it troublesome, nor did she want Hui Niang to waste her thoughts.

"I want everything my mother gives me."

"Even if my mother doesn't give me anything, I will take it anyway."

Upon hearing this, Hui Niang smiled sincerely.

She continued to chatter.

"Your aunt left a lot of the mountain products she sent last time."

"This happened suddenly. Logically, your uncle and aunt should come to see you off. I don't know if you will come back this time, but they are in the countryside and can't get here for a while."

Yu Tingwan looked at Hui Niang: "I will come back."

She said sincerely: "The Wei family is my home. I have to respect my parents and take care of you in your old age."

However, she couldn't give a specific date for when she would come back.

Hui Niang's heart melted.

She had a lot to say, but she was afraid that she would not have time to remind her.

Therefore, what she said became fragmented.

"When you go, remember to send a message home."

Yu Tingwan: "Yes."

"Seeing that Alang is almost well, hurry up and get pregnant."

Yu Tingwan hesitated: "Yes."

"We don't care about the gender, but I'm afraid his family will care."

Hui Niang had suffered from being disciplined by her mother-in-law, and she didn't want Yu Tingwan to experience it.

"From what he said yesterday, he doesn't have a good relationship with his biological mother. But she is your mother-in-law after all. If she hasn't done anything excessive, you should still respect her. But if she treats you badly, don't get close to her."

She looked at Yu Tingwan with a loving look.

"Mother asked you to go with her, not to let you pursue wealth and glory and suffer."

"It's just that I think my stepmother is good in every way, so I always want to choose the best man to match her."

"I got it..."

She paused. She

still called her that.

"With Alang as a comparison, who else can be better than him?"

A girl's marriage requires a good match.

She can't be so blind as to marry someone of a lower status.

If she chooses someone whose conditions are not as good as her own, her life will be even harder than her life at home. What's the point?

Similarly, she can't

marry someone of a higher status.

If her husband's family is not easy to get along with, she will have to please everyone after she marries. If she hadn't known Wei Zhao's character for these days, Hui Niang would never dare to let Yu Tingwan leave like this.

Seeing that the girl didn't speak but her eyes were red, Hui Niang also wiped away tears.

"It rained yesterday, so Madam Zhao didn't bring her daughter back. Now there's no one at home. I'm afraid it's inconvenient to travel at night, so we stayed at the academy."

"Master Sun... do you want to go and say goodbye?"

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips.

She paused for a long time before speaking.

"No."

"The imperial examination is coming soon, and the teacher is busy. If I go there, he will be distracted."

"Wait for him to come back, and tell me a few words."

"You tell me, and I'll remember."

Yu Tingwan did not hesitate: "The doctor told him to eat less sweets, don't be so disobedient. You should eat it well, but you always eat it secretly behind people's backs. You are a teacher and you are old, so you still have to listen to the doctor's advice. You should obey your age."

And...

her voice lowered.

"The traitor has written the article about Liu Shu, and it is on the table in the room."

Yu Tingwan muttered: "He has remembered one thing for nine years, and he has to bring it to me from time to time to recite it. Who is as narrow-minded as him."

She suppressed her complicated feelings and took out a key from her sleeve.

The next words were said to Hui Niang.

"There are four families living in our alley. This is the key to the second family. Mother, please decide whether to let my uncle and aunt move to Ze County."

She knew that the farmers could not let go of the one acre and three mu of land in the village.

The girl took out another land deed.

"This is the farm, just outside the city. Wang Yazi from Wutong Lane got it done, and it's been stamped by the government office."

I had wanted to take the Wei couple to see it these days, but it was too late.

"Some time ago, someone was hired to build a simple wooden house that could be lived in, and all the tools needed for farm work are ready inside."

"It doesn't matter if you plant trees or vegetables. Wang Yazi knows where it is, let him go there and show you the way. Don't be afraid of troubling him, he also made a lot of money from running this farm."

The girl was thoughtful.

"My husband and I mean that it's best for uncle and aunt to settle down in Ze County. A Yu has to study again, and aunt must be missing him in the village."

The academy finally had a few days off, and Zhao Yu was afraid that he would waste time on the road if he wanted to go back.

"The two families are close, so we can take care of everything. If you can't stay idle, you can go to the farm to plant anything. If you can't finish it, you can sell it in the market."

Finally, she took out a thick stack of silver bills.

Hui Niang's face changed immediately.

"Keep it yourself. You are going on a long journey. Your father and I have hands and feet..."

Yu Tingwan stuffed it into her hand.

"This is what my husband and I want to show our filial piety to you two elders."

In this world, you can lack anything except money.

How can you complain about not having enough?

Yu Tingwan watched Hui Niang doing this and that in the kitchen, and she had to be fed from time to time.

The carriage stopped at the door of the Wei family an hour later.

Shunzi moved the luggage.

Compared with Wei Zhao who packed the girl's bag overnight, the Wei couple prepared a lot.

He moved it back and forth many times.

Yu Tingwan watched quietly in the yard.
