Da Zhou pushed aside her children and squeezed in front of her mother-in-law. Smelling the fragrance, she opened her eyes wide and asked:

"Mother, what is this?"

"These are dishes that the third brother's family specially saved. We'll heat them up tomorrow morning so that the eldest and second brothers can have a few bites."

Old Mrs. Zhou spoke with a smile. It wasn't that she was heartless and wouldn't let her grandchildren have their fill; it was just that there weren't enough meat dishes for everyone to eat their fill.

With spring plowing underway, the able-bodied people in the family need to eat well and be well-fed!

"Okay, Mom."

Upon hearing this, Madam Zhou immediately understood what had happened.

He took the basket and carried it to the kitchen, leaving the children behind with his mother-in-law.

Little Zhou also heard the noise, but she didn't believe it and stared intently at the basket, wanting to find out what was going on.

"Goodness, Third Sister-in-law left so much meat!"

Da Zhou lifted the basket, revealing a plate of braised eel and a plate of boiled sliced ​​pork.

No wonder it smells so good, it's definitely a meat dish!

No wonder my mother-in-law is so happy. Once it's heated up, not only the adults but also the children can have a piece of meat.

Let me see~

At first, Ms. Zhou didn't believe it, but after seeing the amount clearly, she couldn't say anything to refute it.

So much meat, Jiang didn't eat it herself, so she had her mother bring it back?

Why does she think it's so risky?

"Second sister-in-law, you can't be obligated to someone who feeds you, and you can't be obligated to someone who gives you gifts. In my opinion, third sister-in-law has truly repented. Otherwise, wouldn't she enjoy eating all this meat herself?"

Da Zhou comforted her, then put the dishes into the cupboard and locked it up.

The old house is teeming with rats in every nook and cranny. If we don't keep them out of the house properly, they'll devour all the good food, which would be a waste of my third sister-in-law's good intentions!

"I hope so."

Xiao Zhou was starting to waver, but she remained stubborn.

She brought a basin of hot water back into the house and told her husband to soak his feet.

"Hey honey, what delicious food did Mom bring back? It smells amazing!"

Wu Erlang took off his shoes and happily soaked his feet.

He was exhausted after a long day, and his feet were the most sore.

His wife is the best; she loves him and brings him water to soak his feet!

"You'll find out tomorrow morning. Sigh, do you really think the Jiang family can get better?"

While making the bed, Xiao Zhou chatted intermittently.

"Why should you care about her? If she's changed for the better, we're happy to associate with her. If she hasn't changed and there's something bad going on, we have so many people in our family, what are we afraid of?"

Wu Erlang said casually that he didn't have a good impression of Jiang either, and he felt that the third brother was really pitiful for marrying such a wife!

Unfortunately, the third brother died young. As the eldest brother, he and his brother couldn't bring themselves to speak ill of the widowed Jiang, so they could only keep their distance...

"By the way, honey, what do you think about what I told you before?"

Wu Erlang asked cautiously, which showed that he was afraid his wife would object to this.

To everyone's surprise, Madam Zhou nodded and said in a calm tone:

"Da Niu and Er Gou are our nephews. As elders, I don't object to us helping them with their weddings. But don't go too far. Our little girl is of engagement age, and we'll need money for many things."

"Hehe, I knew my wife was the best woman in the world!"

With his wife's approval, Wu Erlang finally felt relieved.

Meanwhile, the same conversation was also taking place in the main house.

Madam Zhou did not object; she was by nature a person who did not compete or fight for anything.

Besides, Da Niu and Er Gou grew up under her nose, and as their aunt, she was practically a mother to them. How could she just stand by and watch her two children struggle to find wives?

“Wife, I’ve made up my mind. We’ll get Da Shi engaged this year, and then Da Niu and Er Gou next year. I’ve discussed it with my second brother, and both our families will contribute. Parents and the family will also contribute. That should be enough to arrange marriages for all the boys!”

Wu Dalang lay on the bed, embracing his wife and kissing her sweetly.

He kept talking about his children's future plans, and thanking his wife for being so understanding and for enduring hardship with him, saying he was sorry to her...

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

Madam Zhou smiled gently. Although life had been a bit tough these past few years, there was none of the scheming between sisters-in-law in other families, nor any torment from her mother-in-law. Compared to that, she was truly blessed.

Now that my third sister-in-law has changed for the better, things will only get better from now on.

In the east room, the candlelight flickered.

Grandpa Wu was humming a tune happily, even though it was awful and out of tune, but he was happy!

"Enough, enough, you old codger! Aren't you going to sleep or not? Aren't you going to get out of bed tomorrow?"

Old Mrs. Zhou wasn't going to tolerate it. She pulled the blanket and pushed the old man, not wanting him to continue singing.

"Old woman, tell me, isn't it Sanlang's spirit appearing? Otherwise, how could Third Brother's wife have changed so much?"

Grandpa Wu smiled, showing no displeasure, but rather his spirits lifted again.

"Of course! Sanlang was a good man. He was filial to us when he was alive, and now..."

Old Mrs. Zhou shook her head, saying she wouldn't say anything more, or she would start to cry.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep. We need to get up early tomorrow to weed the fields."

Grandpa Wu propped himself up and blew out the oil lamp.

In the darkness, the elderly couple, though their backs were to each other, couldn't fall asleep; both were longing for their deceased son, Sanlang...

That night, everyone in the Wu family changed their opinion of the third branch of the family.

Jiang Yue was unaware of all this. She had just put Cao'er to sleep, turned her back, and started tinkering with her cheat program again.

Twenty catties of honeysuckle were exchanged for twenty points. One point can be exchanged for a bag of fine salt, a bag of chicken bouillon, a bag of MSG, a bag of baking soda, and a bag of...

Two points can be redeemed for a bottle of sesame oil, a bottle of vinegar, a bottle of soy sauce, and a bottle of...

Three points can be redeemed for a kitchen knife, a fruit knife, two peelers, three scissors...

Four points can be redeemed for items such as floral water, face cream, snake oil ointment, and frostbite cream...

Five points can be redeemed for ten kilograms of rice, twenty kilograms of wheat flour, thirty kilograms of whole grains...

Ten points can be redeemed for...

The transparent panel displayed thousands of different items. After flipping through a few pages, Jiang Yue felt her eyes getting tired, and a sense of weariness crept in...

There's no rush. Now that she has a cheat code, her money is safe and secure stored inside.

You can't get fat in one bite. Next, she needs to find out the source of her money!

And then there's this house; she wants to tear it down and rebuild it!

At least one room per person. She needs a separate room with a lockable door, otherwise she'll be mistaken for a madwoman when she's fiddling with the cheat interface!

Oh, and we also need to get a bathroom and a flush toilet!

Otherwise, she would have to go to the outhouse every day, not only because it smelled terrible, but also because she was always on edge, afraid that she would fall in!

Ugh, I can't think about it anymore, or she'll start to feel disgusted with me!

Well, we need to start preparing for building a house. We'll use the excuse that Da Niu and Er Gou are getting on in years and we need to find them wives...

Ha~

I'm sleepy, I'll stop thinking about it now and think about it tomorrow.

Whew~
