"Okay! I got it. I'll go plant it tomorrow."

Grandma Mo was so excited that she laughed until her eyes almost disappeared.

Mo Qinghe was puzzled. What was there for his mother to be happy about?

After turning over the soil, he came back to his wife and said he wanted to plant something. He felt that his mother was trying to curry favor and get a reward.

However, he was also happy for his wife, because it showed that his wife's mother-in-law treated her well! This is something many people envy!

This also shows that his wife is good; otherwise, why would his mother-in-law treat her so well?

This also shows that he is a good person, and that his wife treats him very well too!

If Su Nanxi knew what he was thinking, she would definitely give him a huge eye roll.

Since the lesson was about making rice noodles, not many were made.

The Qin and Zhao families explained and demonstrated simultaneously. Finally, they placed the finished rice noodles on a winnowing basket to dry, thus completing the lesson.

After Qin Youming finished listening to the instruction and thanked the teacher, he didn't linger and went home. He wanted to write it down, afraid he would forget it over time. He had his own unique memorization method, which was to scribble characters on a fire poker, which only he could understand.

Luo and Liu sat down, waiting for the food to be cooked before going back.

Out of courtesy, the two elders invited the two to stay for dinner before returning home. Others might have said, "No, no, I have things to do at home," but the two sat down without hesitation and actually waited to eat.

Su Nanxi didn't care about any of that. She took out some mung bean sprouts to wash, and that was her vegetarian lunch.

Mo Yunmei returned from who-knows-where, and nobody knows what she did.

My brain isn't very sharp, but my nose is quite keen. I smelled the aroma and rushed back. As soon as I got back, I looked around and found that there was still nothing to eat, so I started looking around.

Nobody paid attention to her, and nobody wanted to talk to her.

She wandered over to the pigpen and saw Grandma Mo feeding the pigs. She went over to take a look and became more and more satisfied with the two piglets inside. Her staring eyes scared the other pigs away.

Grandma Mo knocked on the wooden door of the pigsty. "Don't just wander around here if you have nothing to do! Have you got your lunch yet?"

Grandma Mo reminded her whether she had finished her chores or not, and if not, she should hurry up and finish them, or she wouldn't get any food.

Mo Yunmei didn't listen and kept staring at the piglets. Then she suddenly turned to Old Lady Mo and said, "Mother, these two piglets are so cute. Give them to me. We can raise them again when we catch them later."

Before Old Madam Mo could respond, he continued to stare at it, muttering to himself, "Isn't this just right? It's very prestigious to add to the dowry and give gifts! Just like that, just like that!"

Mo Yunmei didn't lower her voice or try to cover it up at all when she was talking to herself, and Old Lady Mo next to her could hear it clearly!

"Who's getting married? Who do you want to give the piglet to?"

Lost in her own beautiful daydream, Mo Yunmei blurted out, "Sister Qiuxia! She said that when you get married, you need to bring some chickens, ducks, and pigs with you, so that you'll have status in your husband's family! Oh right, chickens and ducks too! I'll go take a look!"

After saying that, she ran off to check on the chickens and ducks, completely oblivious to how dark her mother's face was!

When she discovered that there were two extra chickens, Mo Yunmei became excited. Wouldn't that make a perfect pair?

Then I'll send two piglets and two chickens!

Now Qiuxia will definitely not suffer any grievances at her in-laws' house!

Just as I was having a wonderful thought, I was suddenly dragged aside and thrown to the ground. When I looked up, it was my mother.

Mo Yunmei pouted and asked, feeling wronged, "Mom, why did you drag me so hard? I even fell!"

Grandma Mo showed no remorse. She picked up a bamboo stick and lashed it hard at the nearby pile of firewood. Then, pointing at Mo Yunmei, she yelled, "Are you out of your mind? What business is it of yours that Chen Qiuxia gets married? You go to the wedding if you're invited, and you don't go if you're not. You're worried she won't be well-liked in her husband's family, so you're trying to steal piglets and chickens to give to her! Listen to me, the person you should be most worried about right now is yourself! If you dare to even think about touching my things, I'll break your legs!"

Old Mrs. Mo was furious. She scolded him until her face turned red, and her voice was so loud that it startled the people in the courtyard.

Suddenly, everyone rushed over, and after learning what had happened, they were all very angry.

The children, hands on their hips, angrily asked, "Why did you steal our things and give them to other people! You should go live at someone else's house!"

The Qin and Zhao families were already numb; they never believed that Mo Yunmei would change, so they weren't surprised at all.

Su Nanxi came over for a look and then left. What a brainless thing! What's so interesting about it? It's a waste of time. I'd rather make something delicious!

Mo Qinghe didn't move at all. He heard everything clearly and didn't need to go over to check. He didn't want to either, so he just stayed by the stove.

Luo and Liu went to see what happened, but after learning about it, they didn't say much. They knew it was someone else's business and didn't want to get involved, so they went back to their stools and sat down.

Qin and Zhao returned to help prepare lunch, and they would be able to eat soon.

Hearing that two people had stayed for dinner, Su Nanxi went to the corner of the room and picked two bunches of green vegetables to add to the meal.

Just before dinner, Luo pulled Zhao aside and whispered, "I saw that three chickens were killed. You definitely can't finish them all. Let's save one for us to take back so that our parents can have a taste. I'm worried they might have already put it away, so hurry up and get one for me."

Zhao was pulled aside, knowing that Luo must have something to hide again. She thought Luo wanted some rice noodles to take home, but unexpectedly, Luo wanted a chicken!

How could you say that?

Does she really think the chicken is hers alone? That she can just take it whenever she wants?

Seeing that Zhao was not moving, Luo nudged her and urged, "Hurry up! The chicken is already on the table! I don't know what you're cooking it for, but it smells delicious!"

Zhao didn't want to pay any attention to Luo, but she also didn't want to make things ugly. She simply explained with a cold face, "Sister-in-law! I'm not in charge of this household, and I have no right to distribute the things in the house. If you're hungry, you can stay and have a meal before going back. If you're worried that there won't be any food at home, then you'd better go back and check!"

Luo saw Su Nanxi break open the mud clod, revealing the chicken inside, and smelled the rich aroma. She was so captivated that she couldn't move her feet. She wasn't about to go back empty-handed, and still unwilling to give up, she nudged Zhao, "Then go ask that mute woman. She's new here, and she usually answers when you ask. Why don't you give it a try!"

Zhao felt like hitting someone. "They want everything they see. Don't they know how hard it is for others to get along?"

Her family doesn't need to eat, so how come they can't finish their food? They can save the leftovers for dinner!

She could ask, but she just didn't want to. She knew her sister-in-law too well; once it happened, it would happen countless times in the future!

She, as the eldest sister-in-law, will just pack up and leave, while she has to continue living in this family!

If the mute girl is angered, her mother-in-law, Old Lady Mo, will definitely kick her out!

Even children complain about her, so why should she cause trouble?

Go for it! Give it a try!
