The dragon tribe's most beloved little princess found herself in an era of scarcity, lacking clothes and food. Fortunately, she had a grandmother who doted on her as if she were the apple of he...
Chapter 245 Let the little darling take care of me 1
Looking at her dull and honest eldest son, and then thinking of her equally honest eldest daughter-in-law, Ma Xiulian felt a bit distressed.
Sometimes being too honest isn't good either; you don't know when to be flexible.
Unlike the second son's wife, who will definitely tell her family about the rat hole tomorrow.
This also pointed them in the right direction. Chen Jianguo suddenly realized this and went back to the house with a happy expression to tell his wife about it.
Zhao Mei was immediately delighted and stood up, saying instinctively, "That's right, how come I didn't think of that?"
There's so much food in the rat hole; even digging up just one would be enough to supplement our income.
Zhao Mei couldn't help but smile. She had already made up her mind to go back to her parents' home after work tomorrow at noon and tell them.
The knot in her heart that had been there for days was untied, and she even smiled while sleeping.

The next day at breakfast, Zhou Zhaodi suddenly said, "Mom, I'd like to mention going back to my parents' home this afternoon."
Her family lives far away, and going there during the day would take up too much time for her work.
But it's too late and not safe to be on the road, so I have to finish work two hours early and ask my mother-in-law for permission first.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mei was taken aback at first, but then realized that her second son's family was probably also going back to their parents' home to talk about the rat hole, and she assumed that it was also a message given by her mother-in-law.
A look of emotion involuntarily appeared on her face: Although her mother-in-law looked cold, she was actually warm-hearted.
"become."
Ma Xiulian agreed immediately without asking why she was going to her parents' home.
Then, looking at Li Chunhua, who was eating eggs with gusto, he said in an unyielding tone, "Third brother's wife, starting today, you also need to go back to work in the fields."
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Li Chunhua choked on a mouthful of egg. "Ugh!"
He choked so badly his eyes rolled back, and he had to pound his neck hard to swallow the egg.
Then, ignoring the pain in her throat, she glared and said, "Mom, I've only been in confinement for half a month!"
When she gave birth to that wretched girl, she spent a whole month in postpartum confinement!
Not to mention, she gave birth to a big, healthy grandson for the Chen family this time!
Ma Xiulian's face immediately darkened, and she said in a gruff voice, "What? You really think you're some kind of landlord's daughter, that you can stay in bed all month after giving birth and not go to work in the fields, just waiting to be fed?! You wish!"
Zhou Zhaodi also said sarcastically, "Hey, Third Sister-in-law, look around at other families, how many wives can be well fed and cared for for half a month after giving birth? It's all because our mother is kind-hearted!"
Li Chunhua isn't just stupid, she's practically brainless!
The women in the Chen family follow a set rule when it comes to childbirth: they rest for a week after giving birth to a daughter, and for half a month after giving birth to a son.
She's not a new bride who's just given birth for the first time!
Li Chunhua knew this, of course, but she thought that this time, having given birth to her youngest son, she could be an exception!
Her Jinbao is clearly much prettier and more lovable than that brat, but her mother-in-law is just blind and can't see it!
Seeing her mother-in-law's dark expression, she dared not speak out, and could only say with a wronged tone, "I'm going to the fields, who will take care of Jinbao at home?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Mei kindly said, "Third sister-in-law, don't worry, Si Ni will take good care of Jin Bao."
Thinking that Jinbao is such a small child and doesn't make much noise, my little girl only needs to change his diapers.
After all, these days girls are raised from a young age to help adults take care of their younger siblings.
Li Chunhua, however, was completely unmoved. "No way, Si Ni has to take care of Liu Ni too, how can she possibly look after her all!"
