The Zhou family has settled down, and Mo Wenying and Chen Ahua have also settled down.

Everyone is busy and has found work to do and earn money. Although it's not a lot of money at the beginning, as long as you are willing to work hard and do it carefully, you will become more skilled and your speed and quality will improve, and your earnings will naturally increase.

These two families happened to be neighbors, and they helped each other out, so they got along very well and gradually became quite familiar with each other.

They are very satisfied with their current life and feel content. They don't crave great wealth or status. As long as they are safe and sound, their family is together, and they are neither hungry nor cold, that's enough for them!

No one maliciously disturbs their lives, nor does anyone deliberately cause trouble. Their lives are simple, but they are happy!

Chen Ahua is a very hardworking and ambitious person. In order to make her parents live a better life, she made many bold creations under the guidance of Su Nanxi. She failed many times, but eventually succeeded several times!

These bold innovations brought Chen Ahua a lot of money, making her family less strapped for cash and finally able to relax a bit. Tao Shi could also eat better without worry!

Tao also helped, and Chen Ahua told Tao not to worry about money, as she had earned money and should eat well and take care of her health.

Chen Qianshan was no longer so depressed. With such a capable daughter, the burden on his shoulders was not so heavy, and his mood improved a lot. He also made money himself and advised Tao to eat well and take good care of her health, as pregnant women need to eat more!

Tao was very happy to see how much she cared about her. She thought it made sense; she should eat well, for her own sake and for the sake of her child!

So she stopped worrying about money and ate whatever she could. She should be content with how she is now, with her family together, healthy and happy—something she never dared to dream of before!

She has achieved her goal, and she has no regrets!

The important thing now is to take good care of your health, give birth to the child, and raise it well, regardless of whether it's a boy or a girl!

Chen Ahua's life is warm and happy, but Old Mrs. Chen's life is quite the opposite.

It caused chaos and disorder, and no one could have peace!

Because all the Chen family's children were arrested, the Chen family was also implicated and punished. They already had nothing left, and now they really have nothing to eat.

To make matters worse!

Only then did the two branches of the Chen family realize they needed to work hard. They had no choice; they had nothing to eat and couldn't just wait to die. They had to survive first!

So, wherever there was work, I didn't care much about the wages; as long as meals were provided and I could have a full meal, that was enough!

Their wishes have been reduced to the bare minimum!

They even asked the Mo family if they needed any help. They were shameless to ask, even though they knew the Mo family wouldn't want them, but they still went with a sliver of hope!

The result, of course, did not disappoint them; just as they had expected, the Mo family was not hiring!

With no other option, I had to look elsewhere, going wherever there was work to be done, without any particular direction.

The four men were young and strong, so they were fine with running errands, but Old Mrs. Chen was no good. Nobody wanted someone that old to do the work!

Not only do they work slowly and eat a lot, but the main concern is that if anything unexpected happens, they'll be in deep trouble!

No matter what you say, we won't accept the older ones.

Old Mrs. Chen was left alone at home, but after searching the house thoroughly, she couldn't find anything to eat. She was so angry that she started cursing, accusing her son and daughter-in-law of being too treacherous and cunning, leaving her no food at all, and trying to starve her to death!

It's no use scolding her; her son and daughter-in-law can't hear her anyway!

The villagers all loathed Old Woman Chen and would avoid her at all costs, fearing that she might bring trouble upon them!

So, Old Mrs. Chen couldn't borrow any rice or grain; nobody paid any attention to her, and in the end, she went back home in a huff.

She waited until her son and daughter-in-law returned, expecting them to bring her something delicious, but they came back empty-handed. She immediately lost her temper.

Yeah, they're arguing again.

They were arguing fiercely.

In the end, it definitely ended badly.

Too many arguments will wear down the relationship, especially since there wasn't much affection to begin with, and now it's all gone.

The two daughters-in-law of the Chen family simply became tough and stopped caring about Old Mrs. Chen. Since they always ate their fill outside before coming back, they ignored Old Mrs. Chen completely.

It's fine for a day or two, but it won't work if it goes on for too long.

Old Mrs. Chen couldn't find anything to eat anywhere. She was so hungry that her vision was blurry and her limbs were weak. She didn't even have the strength to curse anymore. Her self-preservation system kicked in, and she shut up and didn't say a word.

But her son and daughter-in-law still ignored her. She was exhausted after a long day and could barely walk. All she wanted to do when she got home was to fall off the bed and go to sleep.

Old Mrs. Chen could only get angry, but the angrier she got, the more uncomfortable she felt, and the more energy she consumed!

He had no choice but to suppress his anger and rack his brains for a solution.

Finally, a good idea came up: find her third son!

She's in such a terrible state now, her third son won't abandon her!

She firmly believes that as long as she finds her third son's family, she has a way to get him to accept her back!

The only person I can think of now is my third son!

But Old Mrs. Chen didn't think she had done anything wrong before. In fact, she felt that if she hadn't done that, her third son's family would still be poor and would never have the life of a wealthy person!

She deserves credit for this too!

She had heard from the villagers that her third son's family had moved to the town, and it seemed they had gone there a long time ago. Anyway, she hadn't noticed this until the villagers mentioned it.

When villagers went to the market, some saw them. They heard that they now wear new clothes and shoes and are living a very good life!

If life gets better, it would be extremely unfilial not to take your elderly mother to live with you and enjoy the good life!

She didn't remember before, but now that she does, she insists that they come back and take her away!

She also wanted to go to town to enjoy a life of luxury, to live that kind of comfortable life, to buy new clothes and new shoes, and oh right, to wear the hairpins that everyone in town liked to wear!

People should not forget their roots. If the Tao family can enjoy their blessings, why can't she?

Is there no justice left?!

She's in such a terrible state right now, her son should grant her every wish!

Old Mrs. Chen really dares to think and act!

The next morning, she tightened her belt, quickly washed up, and headed to the Mo family's house.

At this moment, I no longer felt hungry; instead, I felt very excited, as if I had encountered some joyous occasion.

As soon as Su Nanxi opened the door, she encountered Old Mrs. Chen running excitedly towards her. She paused for a moment, then thought to herself, "Pah! So early in the morning, she's seen something she shouldn't have!"

Thinking they were just passing by, I didn't pay much attention. Just as I was about to turn around and call for Xiao Wu to hurry up, Old Mrs. Chen spoke up first.

"Hey! Don't go yet! Wait for me! I need to go to town!"

Su Nanxi ignored him. He was a nobody, so who knew who he was talking to!

When Old Mrs. Chen saw that Su Nanxi ignored her, she got angry. "How can you be so rude! I told you to stop for a moment. I also need to go to town. What's wrong with waiting a moment?"

"Stop! Who are you talking to? Get out of the way, we don't have any housework!"
