Chapter 26 A Mouth of Vinegar



But Song Jiayu liked the summer outfit more. It was light yellow in color, with a shirt-style top and a long skirt. The workmanship and lines of the clothes were very good.

When she saw this set of summer clothes, she had already thought about how to match it.

The Zhou family has come to the hospital, and it’s time for the neighbors from the compound who came to help to go home.

On the way back, Song Jiayu was still pushing the cart.

Perhaps it was because of this concerted effort, together with the aunt who went to the factory to call people, that the relationship between the four of them became much closer. No, it should be Song Jiayu, the daughter-in-law from the countryside, who formed a revolutionary friendship with the three of them and had an infinitely better impression of Song Jiayu.

After all, who doesn’t want to be friends with a nice person who is willing to help directly when something happens?

When the people working in the factory went home at noon, the two compounds started to get noisy again. Everyone was talking about what happened that morning. Even Song Jiayu was sharing what she had eaten today with Jiang Baizhou.

It was not until two o'clock in the afternoon that Zhou's mother returned to the compound.

Someone asked, "Mr. Zhou, has your daughter-in-law given birth yet?"

Mother Zhou had a beaming smile on her face, her good mood evident from her expression. She deliberately raised her voice, "It's born! I have a grandson weighing six kilograms and five ounces!"

Congratulations soon rang out from the neighboring compound.

But the good mood of the Zhou family disappeared in the afternoon when Li Pingping returned to the compound to recuperate after giving birth, and when the four strong sons of the Li family arrived.

This time, Song Jiayu didn't bring out the bench. The big melon was in the house, not in the yard.

But the sound insulation of the brick house at that time was very poor. Even if you didn't see it with your own eyes, it would be better to hear it with your own ears.

"Zhou Jie, how dare you bully my sister!"

"Bang!" Something fell down.

"Our Li family only has this one sister. What did you say when you came to ask for her hand in marriage? As soon as my sister got pregnant, you were seduced by a widow outside. You are really a good person!"

"This time my sister was so angry that she gave birth prematurely. If things don't work out, we can definitely take her and our grandson home to raise them!"

“…”

In short, Li Pingping, who had the support of her powerful mother's family and four brothers, did not let the Zhou family have an easy time either. The Li family did not even bother with Widow Yang, but only used tricks on the Zhou family. They also knew that they would give a good response if they hit someone with a stick. That night, the Zhou family was filled with the aroma of meat.

The Li family members all work in the meat processing factory, so it is much easier for them to get some pork than for the people in the compound.

Just as the Li family was leaving, someone from the Zhou family came out of the compound to see them off.

It’s just that Jay Chou’s dark circles are particularly funny.

Song Jiayu, who had come to Compound No. 13 specifically to look for Jiang's mother but actually to watch the show, returned home and fell on Jiang Baizhou, laughing for a long time.

Today Song Jiayu did not forget the second task.

She went out in the afternoon and came back with a chicken coop containing two clucking, egg-laying hens.

Li Dong and Li Ba had just returned. The five-year-old boy came to the chicken coop, drooling at the sight of the hens inside. He asked, "Sister, do you stew your hens?"

When the second task target came to her door, Song Jiayu naturally would not let him go. "Yes, not only can it be stewed, but also fried and braised. Do you want to eat it?"

Li Ba nodded, "I think so."

"Then you have to bring something in exchange." Song Jiayu waited for the two children.

Li Ba opened his small hand and revealed an ancient copper coin. "This is all I have. Can I exchange it for something?"

"Where did you find this thing?" Song Jiayu did not agree immediately, but wanted to confirm first.

Li Ba pointed at his sister and said, "My sister and I just found it by the river."

The information matched, Li Dong, Li Ba and He Bian.

Song Jiayu smiled, put away the copper coin, and nodded in agreement: "I agree to the exchange. When I want to stew chicken, I will use this copper coin to exchange for a bowl of chicken for you."

Li Dong, knowing that copper coins were worthless, said embarrassedly, "Sister Song, no thanks. They can't even be exchanged for a bowl of chicken. My brother is just joking."

"No, I can change it if I say so." Song Jiayu didn't want to take advantage of the two children. She touched Li Ba's head and said before Li Dong, who was about to refuse again, "People should keep their promises, right? Take your brother home quickly."

"Okay." Li Dong took his brother back and immediately told his mother about it. After hearing Xiong Cuihua's "I know", he ignored it and went to play with his sister and brother.

Back to the scene where Song Jiayu was so amused by Zhou Jie's "dark circles" that he couldn't straighten his back, Jiang Baizhou was helpless: "Is it really that funny?"

"That's funny! This is what they call 'you reap what you sow'. Let me tell you, if I were wronged like this, my parents would definitely come to the compound and tear the house down."

"I could never do such a thing! I promise!"

"That widow Yang is quite good-looking. If she really seduces you, can you resist?"

"Wife, are you jealous?"

Jiang Baizhou's voice was a little louder, with a look of joy on his face.

This made Song Jiayu angry. "I'm asking you a question, and you're changing the subject?"

"Cough cough cough cough." Jiang Baizhou laughed and coughed for a long time. After catching his breath, he said, "I'm happy that you're jealous of me. No matter if it's Widow Yang or anyone else, they're just people in my eyes. You're the only one I like."

"That's a nice thing to say." Song Jiayu's jealousy disappeared from her heart. Instead, she took out the copper coin. She couldn't see anything herself, so she had to rely on Jiang Baizhou: "Show me, which dynasty is this copper coin from?"

Jiang Baizhou... He actually knows a little bit. He is a smart person who has been interested in everything since childhood and can learn anything easily. If he hadn't been ill for many years, he would not be just a level 1 electrician now.

After examining it carefully, he said, "It should be a copper coin produced during the Guangxu period. The worn ancient Chinese characters here are those two words."

"It's during the Guangxu period. I thought it could be during the Kangxi or Yongzheng period." But it's not bad, Song Jiayu heard the system prompt.

[Complete the quest to find out that Li Dong and Li Ba found something by the river, and successfully punch in a copper coin during the Guangxu period to receive a reward of three yuan.]

Not bad, not bad, today’s mission reward is very good.

On the second night of their wedding, because they had to go back to their home in Lushan Village the next morning, the two went to bed early without making a fuss. However, Jiang Baizhou slept until the next day, while Song Jiayu completed a four-hour cooking course and fell asleep until eight o'clock the next day.

"You finally woke up. If you don't wake me up——"

"What are you going to do?"

"I'll lift the quilt and sleep with you! A wife follows her husband's lead~"

"Hmph, wishful thinking. I need to get up."

Song Jiayu changed into the clothes rewarded by the system. Jiang Baizhou didn't know how many clothes she had since they got married, so it was no problem for her to change into them.

The light yellow clothes make her skin look whiter, not to mention that Song Jiayu is a girl with a sweet smile.

Like a blooming butterfly peony.

People are more beautiful than flowers.
