Overworked employee Su Ying died from continuous overtime and transmigrated to the second year of Zhenguan in the Great Tang dynasty. She became Su Ying, the eldest daughter of Su Buchang, the Chan...
Chapter 175 A Good Home
"Hey, what are you talking about? It's so lively?" Madam Zheng came in with a few other women.
"Pan'er, why are you here?" Yang Chunhua didn't expect that all her sisters were here.
"Why, Aying can come but we can't?" Madam Zheng teased.
"Come on, come on!" Yang Chunhua said happily, "I'm just worried that I'll delay your work!"
It is said that three women make a drama, and now seven or eight women have squeezed into the room, making it full, chattering, and very lively.
"Oh, why are you sewing cotton clothes while you're recovering from your injuries?" Madam Zheng picked up the cotton clothes and joked, "Auntie, are you worried that Chunhua will be idle?"
"Of course, Chunhua is bored and lying there to kill time." Gao Shi didn't seem angry.
Madam Zheng looked at the man in cotton clothes and was stunned for a moment. She seemed to understand something and stopped talking.
Instead, he changed the subject, "What were you talking about just now? Why did you sound like you were talking about Bai Diezi?"
"Yes, this cotton is very similar to the white cotton. It reminds me of the white cotton we had in our greenhouse when we were little."
Yang Chunhua took over the conversation, but did not mention the spinning and weaving they had just talked about.
Gao and Su Ying both remained silent tacitly, not wanting the news to spread too early.
"It is said that your family's greenhouse was the talk of the town in Beijing back then. The ladies were proud to go to the Yang Mansion's greenhouse to see the white floribunda flowers!" Madam Zheng clapped her hands.
"Pan'er, do you know who got those white folds?" Yang Chunhua was thinking.
"Who knows! The imperial guards are raiding the house, who dares to get close? Wouldn't they be arrested as accomplices?
"That's a rare and precious flower, confiscated and treasured in the palace. Perhaps someone smuggled a few in during the confiscation. It's so precious that ordinary people wouldn't dare plant it even if they got it." Madam Zheng sighed.
The following year, her family was also raided and exiled, and no one suffered a good outcome.
Everyone sighed for a moment, saying that half of their life had passed by in an instant, they had experienced wealth and hardship, and this life had been wonderful and fulfilling.
"Chunhua, I told you to take it easy, but you didn't listen. You were busy all day long. Now look what happened. You've been lying down for two or three months at a time!"
Madam Zheng laughed and said, "Yesterday was truly terrifying! We're used to you being busy all day, and then you disappeared so late, and no one suspected you had an accident!"
"Of course! Chunhua, you should take it easy. There is always work to be done. You have to take care of your body." The sisters advised in unison.
"I saved it. Thank you sisters for your concern!" Yang Chunhua felt warm in her heart.
"Oh, yes, I almost forgot. Yesterday I found a large patch of kudzu, enough to dig for several days!" Yang Chunhua always felt that he had forgotten something, and now he finally remembered it.
"Where is it?" everyone asked excitedly, as the raw materials were becoming increasingly scarce.
"It's the area where I fell into the ditch. Be careful when you dig there. It's very slippery. Don't slip into the ditch like I did." Yang Chunhua warned.
"Let's all go tomorrow and call Pei Sanlang and the others. It will be better if there are more people to look after us." Madam Zheng suggested.
"Yes, let's all go!" The women agreed unanimously.
They cannot rely on husbands like others. They are the pillars of the family, with elderly parents and young children to take care of.
If someone really collapses like Yang Chunhua, what will happen to the elderly and children?
"Grandma, ladies and gentlemen, please take your time chatting. I have something else to do, so I can't stay with you any longer!" Su Ying stood up and said goodbye.
"Let's go too. It's getting late. We should go home and cook!" Madam Zheng also said goodbye.
"Yes, there is never enough time in one day. Let's go! Chunhua, take good care of yourself. I will come to see you when I have time." The women left one after another.
Madam Zheng deliberately stayed last, and when she saw that no one was around, she whispered, "Chunhua, is this the cotton coat you made for Mr. Su Erlang?"
Seeing Madam Zheng's meaningful smile, Yang Chunhua blushed, "Lord Su Er saved me and tore up my cotton coat. I don't have anything to give you, so I made you a cotton coat as a thank you gift."
"Hey, I think Mr. Su Erlang is a good person. Do you think he is interested in you too? Why don't you..." Madam Zheng asked tentatively.
"Pan'er, what are you talking about!" Yang Chunhua pretended to be angry.
"Old Su was also present at the time. Lord Su came down because he was stronger, not what you think!"
"I saved it, I saved it!" Madam Zheng did not argue with her.
"I think you are still young, and Mr. Su Erlang is single now, so why don't you two get together and have someone to rely on.
If you have another child, your hard work will pay off. The Su family is good and worthy of trust!"
"Pan'er!" Yang Chunhua interrupted Madam Zheng. "Lord Su saved me, but I'm relying on him. How will the villagers view me?"
"Chunhua! You, once you lose the opportunity, it will never come again. I've heard about Mr. Su Erlang. His ex-wife was confused and didn't know what to do. He divorced her because she made a lot of trouble.
Otherwise, there would be no such opportunity! There are many widows in our village, and many of them want to get married.
At least we have sons and daughters to support us, but you have nothing. Hurry up, because if you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again!
"Su Erlangjun is not bad, he's a capable man. The road construction depends entirely on him!" Madam Zheng said sincerely, "Once you've made up your mind, don't hesitate!"
Yang Chunhua was confused and didn't speak for a long time. She didn't even know when Madam Zheng left.
Gao came in and quietly sewed a cotton coat.
"Mom! Did you hear everything?" Yang Chunhua looked at her mother.
"Hmm!" Gao didn't look up. "Pan'er is right. Mr. Su Erlang is a good man!"
"But mother, what about my parents-in-law? They have no sons and no grandchildren. If I remarry, they will have no one to take care of them."
Yang Chunhua fell in love with Su Laoer, but couldn't let go of the old couple Wang.
"Everyone has their own destiny. You have served the Wang family for so many years. You have achieved this level of status as a daughter-in-law. What else can the Wang family not be satisfied with?
Doesn't the Wang family still have nephews and nieces? Besides, if you marry again, you'll still be in the same village. Who would care if something really happened?
You don't owe the Wang family anything, so remarrying is perfectly legitimate, and no one can stop you!" Gao said calmly.
Seeing her daughter working like a slave for the Wang family, how could she feel good? But there were only a few able-bodied men in the village, and she couldn't find anyone to marry her off to.
After all the hard work of Xiao Qinshi vacating her position, who among the village elders wouldn't be tempted? Who wouldn't want to have the hot ashes shoveled into their own home?
What Zheng Paner said just now was from the bottom of her heart, wasn't it also her true thoughts?
If Yang Chunhua failed to hear the hidden meaning and kept refusing and denying it, Gao knew that Zheng Pan'er would definitely take the initiative without hesitation.
Zheng Pan'er is straightforward, bold and proactive.
If I restrain myself now, it would be out of courtesy.
But this kind of affection is vulnerable to the happiness of one's life. Who doesn't want to find a good man? Who doesn't want to have a solid support?
Besides, the old man Wang and his wife are very perfunctory. Their daughter fell like this, but they haven't even come to send for her.
Gao felt uncomfortable. At this point, they still expected Chunhua to serve them for the rest of her life. What a dream!
People are selfish. As a mother, Gao hopes her daughter will have a good home.
