The first person to come downstairs was the woman who spoke first. Her husband was injured while working a few days ago and could not do heavy work. Her parents-in-law were not in good health, and they had two children, so life was very difficult.

After thinking it over for a while, she decided to sell cold noodles. She couldn't afford a tricycle, but she had a cart at home that she could use with a board on it, although it was slower than a tricycle, but even if she sold less, at least her family would get more.

Gu's mother naturally understood her family situation and was very willing to help her. The woman was called Liu Ju, and according to seniority, Jiang Yiyi called her sister-in-law.

"Sister Liu, if you have made up your mind, I will designate a place for you. You can only sell it there in the future. You are not allowed to go anywhere else. This is the rule. Anyone who sells my Liangpi must abide by it."

"OK."

Liu Ju was very happy, she just wanted to make some money to make her family's life better, she never thought about getting rich, and besides, they were from the same village, Jiang Yiyi could point her to a bad place.

A few more people came later, but none of them was as straightforward as Liu Ju. They kept saying that they couldn't afford a tricycle and asked Jiang Yiyi to help them find a solution.

"You know, when I first started selling cold noodles, I bought a tricycle. I can't think of a solution, so why don't you go back and think about it. Come to me anytime you come up with one."

After sending these people away, the two said goodbye to Mother Gu and took their things back to her parents' home.

It was still a little hot at this time in the summer, and few people went to work in the fields. Jiang's father and mother did not go to the fields either, and they were talking at home.

Because of their daughter, the villagers are now very flattering to them, and the two are not used to it.

Seeing the door being pushed open, Jiang's father subconsciously looked outside, and was stunned for a moment when he saw a soldier coming in. He had only seen Gu Yunze once on the day of his daughter's wedding, and his appearance was blurry. When he saw his daughter behind him, he realized who it was, and quickly stood up and walked out, followed by Gu's mother.

"Dad, Mom."

Gu Yunze shouted.

Jiang's father and mother agreed repeatedly, "Why are you here in such a hot day? Come in quickly."

Entering the room, Mother Gu tried to pour water for Gu Yunze, but was stopped by Jiang Yiyi, "Mom, he is not an outsider. If he wants to drink water, let him pour it himself."

Mother Gu glared at her daughter in reproach, saying that her son-in-law was a guest and it was not right for him to pour water for himself.

Gu Yunze really poured the water himself and drank from the half-enamel jar without any disdain.

Jiang's father and mother saw it and were happy in their hearts.

The son-in-law did not treat him as an outsider, which meant that he cared about Yiyi in his heart. How could they not be happy?

The old couple liked Gu Yunze as their son-in-law since they came here, and they liked him even more this time. They kept them for dinner before letting them go back. When they arrived at the edge of the village, they happened to meet Gu Yunchi.

"Why are you back so late?"

She had asked Gu Yunchi to come back by 6:30 at the latest. The wheat was growing taller now, and it was unsafe to come back too late.

"Mrs. Zhang Mei didn't come today. I went somewhere else after I finished selling in front of the textile factory, so I came back late."

Jiang Yiyi had a feeling that something was wrong. She knew how much Zhang Mei wanted to make money. If she had the energy to do so, she would come to sell cold noodles. If something happened at home, she should have gone over and told them. Not coming without telling anyone was not Zhang Mei's style.

In the yard, Gu Yunyang, Gu Yuncan, Tiantian and Yueyue were playing eagle catching chicken. When they saw them come in together, Tiantian and Yueyue let go of their clothes and ran over with their short legs. However, they did not look for Gu Yunchi, but ran to Gu Yunze, raised their heads and asked, "Uncle, have you changed?"

The whole family looked at Gu Yunze in unison. Jiang Yiyi held back her laughter and also looked at him.

Gu Yunze said calmly, "My uncle is too busy. I haven't had time to tell my aunt yet."

"Are you busy now?"

"Busy, uncle has to put the bicycle away."

"Then you are not in a hurry. Tell your aunt right away."

"good."

Gu Yunchi nagged Jiang Yiyi's arm and lowered his voice, "Sister-in-law, what did my brother change?"

Jiang Yiyi glared at her.

Gu Yunchi held back his laughter, put away his bicycle, and went to the kitchen. She hadn't had dinner yet.

The children continued to play games until the two of them were tired. Gu Yunchi gave them a bath and brought them back to the house.

The rest of the people also took a bath and went back to their rooms.

Gu Yunze was the last one to take a shower. When he came back after showering, he found the door was locked. The lights in other people's rooms were still on. He did not use the trick for the time being and turned to go to Gu Yunyang's room.

Inside the house, Jiang Yiyi listened with bated breath. She heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the footsteps fade away, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep in a short while.

Gu Yunyang was doing math problems, which were given to him by Gu Yuncan. He had developed the habit of doing a problem before going to bed every day.

Hearing footsteps, he turned around and saw it was Gu Yunze. He subconsciously looked towards his room, but saw that the lights were off, and frowned.

"Won't?"

Gu Yunyang shook his head and pursed his lips tightly.

"What?"

Gu Yunyang sat down beside him.

Gu Yunyang didn't know whether he should say it or not.

He had no intention of saying anything before this, he thought his sister-in-law had broken up with that wild man, but his sister-in-law didn't let his brother into the house today.

Seeing that he had something to say, Gu Yunze touched Gu Yunyang's head. When he joined the army, his younger brother was still young, but in the blink of an eye he grew up like this. "Just say whatever you want to say."

Gu Yunze continued, "My sister-in-law used to have someone outside..."

My younger brother is only eight years old, it is impossible for him to know such things. He can only have heard about it from others. "Don't listen to the nonsense of the villagers."

"I'm not kidding, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Gu Yunze looked at him.

"Of the money you sent back before, your sister-in-law only gave mother one dollar, and kept the rest. She also picked vegetables from home and took them to the county to sell, but never took the money back. I was very angry. One time, I secretly followed her to the county town, hoping to get the money after she sold all the vegetables. But I found out that she rented a house in the county and kept a strange man, a student in the county..."

"but……"

He changed the subject quickly, "Later, my sister-in-law suddenly came to her senses and should break up with that wild man. She even started selling cold noodles and supported my sister, allowing her to divorce Qin Gang. She also took my mother to the county hospital for treatment and bought us delicious food, clothes, and shoes."

"Do mother and your sister know?"

Gu Yunyang shook his head.

Gu Yunze patted his head and said, "You did a good job of hiding this from them. Don't mention it to anyone in the future."

Gu Yunyang nodded.

"Do your homework."

Gu Yunze walked out of the house and stood in the yard with a gloomy look in his eyes.

…

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yiyi felt someone pressing on her. She suddenly opened her eyes and saw that it was Gu Yunze. She asked in surprise, "How did you get in?"

Gu Yunze looked at her, his deep eyes glowing in the dark night. Jiang Yiyi subconsciously sensed the danger and wanted to push him away, but it was too late.
