The sound of horse hooves rang out, and Cao Dapeng and Sun Yanshan, who had gone to the town to sell food, also returned, and Aning also brought the children with him. When Sun Bailian saw Aning coming, she hurriedly led him into the house to greet him.

"Xuanxuan is here too, Kangkang and the others are playing over there, do you want to come over and play?" In his yard, like Cao Xiangnan's, there were swings and seesaws for the children to play with. Sun Bailian pointed to the group of children playing over there and asked Xuanxuan, "Go if you want to." Aning reached out and touched the child's head, letting him go over to play.

A group of children over there also saw Xuanxuan coming. Jingbao ran over with his legs stretched out, shouting, "Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan..."

Xuanxuan glanced at Am and saw Am nodded. After all, he was still a child. A bright smile appeared on his face and he ran to his friends.

"Let's go, let them play here. Let's go in and have a cup of tea. Wanfeng is inside." Sun Bailian led Aning inside and shouted, "Wanfeng, Aning is here."

Qi Wanfeng popped his head inside, saw Aning coming, smiled and said, "Aning, you are here, come in quickly."

He hadn't seen Aning for a long time and missed her very much. He won't go to the store now. Aning is busy and doesn't come to their place often. Today, Sun Bailian is staying here, so Aning is here too. He is very happy to see her now.

"Then you two can sit inside and have a cup of tea. Wanfeng, you can pour a glass of water for Aning. We are all family, so there is no need to be polite. Wanfeng, you can stay here for a while and talk to Aning." Wanfeng has been helping outside. Now there are enough people and nothing to do. Sun Bailian asked Wanfeng and Aning to stay inside. "I'm going outside. You can stay here."

There are many things going on outside, and he can't stay here with them. Fortunately, they are all family, so they don't need to care about these things.

"Okay, I'll entertain Aning, you go and do your thing." Qi Wanfeng knew that Bai Lian was busy, and he was not needed in the kitchen at the moment. His waist was sore after standing for a long time, so he stayed here to help him entertain the guests.

The dishes in the kitchen were already being fried. The weather was hot, so it wouldn't be cold after the dishes were fried. As soon as Cao Dapeng came over, he went into the kitchen to help. Seeing that he had returned, Cao Xiangnan did not hesitate to order him to work. Sun Yanshan followed him in, and he said, "We only have a few people here. Uncle Sun, go and bring Grandpa and Grandma over. I'm almost done here, and we can have dinner soon."

"Okay, I'll go back and pick them up." Sun Yanshan came in, took a look, turned around and went out again.

At this time, relatives came to the house. They were from his mother's side. The adults and children came together. The visitors were busy and brought some gifts. Now everyone has work to do at home and has more money. Those who have eggs at home brought a basket of eggs and bought some meat.

The whole family came to eat at other people's homes, and some people also brought gifts.

"Please come in quickly, please come in quickly." Seeing everyone coming, Sun Bailian was happy in his heart, "Is it your second uncle? Where are your second uncle and his family? Why didn't they come with you?" he asked.

"Your second uncle and your cousin are still repairing the road, so they won't be here until later." Two or three people in the family went to repair the road, and each person earned ten yuan a day. The family's income was really not small after calculating it in a month. The one who spoke was Sun Jing's mother. Sun Bailian still called him second uncle. The relationship between the two families was very close.

His fourth son followed Sun Ji to Nanyang. The farthest place they had been in their lives was Fenshui Town. They had never thought that they would go to such a far place. Now that the fourth son has made a difference with Sun Ji, he, as a mother, is also happy.

"This house is really big."

"Yes, it's really beautiful."

"Bai Lian, you are living a good life now, living in such a big house."

"Mom, we will build such a house in the future."

"Okay."

They all said that Sun Bai Lian was stubborn. She didn't want to marry a good family, but married a man like Cao Gang. Not only was she much older than him, but she also served in the army for so many years and came back with a fierce aura. It was obvious that she was not from a good family.

Because Sun Bai Lian wanted to marry Cao Gang, his mother also broke off relations with him. At that time, everyone in Caojia Village knew about this incident. Now his mother has not forgiven him yet. Yesterday, they saw Sun Bailian calling his mother to come for dinner. His mother was so stubborn that she didn't even open the door for her own son. She was also cruel.

But no matter what these outsiders said, Sun Bailian married Cao Gang and gave birth to two boys. Cao Gang could go hunting in the mountains and sell his game for money. His life was no worse than theirs. They also saw that Cao Gang had been good to Sun Bailian for so many years. Now they have made a fortune and built a big house.

I heard that this house was run by Cao Silang. Now Cao Silang is cooking in the kitchen. It can be seen that the relationship between the two families is very good. Many families in their village still rely on Cao Silang, and their families have more income, and now their lives are better.

Everyone knows the Sun family. Cao Gang's family and Cao Silang's family are close. Sun Bailian asked her cousin Sun Ji to do business with them. Now Sun Ji has paid back all the money he borrowed from them. I'm afraid he has made a lot of money. Sun Ji picked someone from the Hui people and went to Nanyang with them to do business. Maybe he will pick their boy next time he comes back?

Now that Sun Bailian's family has built such a big house, some are jealous and some are jealous, but even if they are jealous, they have to keep it in their hearts. Their attitude towards Sun Bailian can be said to be a bit flattering.

"Everyone, have a cup of tea and some snacks here first." Sun Bailian didn't think too much about it. He was happy to see everyone coming. He led everyone into the house and asked everyone to sit down.

Qi Wanfeng and Aning also helped to greet the guests here. Now everyone was polite to Qi Wanfeng. Everyone looked at Aning's appearance unconsciously. The older grandmother smiled and said, "This boy is really handsome."

Hearing what others said, Aning's face turned a little red. He was not used to these people's sharp eyes. Qi Wanfeng saw Aning's blushing face, and couldn't help but smile, and asked him to go to the back.

The children ran to play with those who had fun. It was hot and noisy outside.

The dishes in the kitchen were brought out in large pots, steaming. The aroma was so fragrant that it made people drool. The big table outside was set up, the benches were laid out, and the bowls and chopsticks were placed on the table, waiting for everyone to arrive before the feast began.

Sun Bailian suddenly realized that her husband was missing. She looked around and went to the kitchen but still didn't see him, so she asked Cao Xiangnan, "Xiangnan, have you seen Cao Gang?" Why did he disappear at this moment?

"Isn't he still here? He must have gone somewhere. He will be back soon." Cao Xiangnan actually knew where Cao Gang had gone. He had come to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but maybe his father-in-law and mother-in-law were too difficult to invite, so he had been gone for so long and still hadn't come back.

He didn't know whether Cao Gang could invite his father-in-law and mother-in-law over, so he didn't tell Sun Bailian about this for the time being.

"Oh, OK, I'll look for it somewhere else." Sun Bailian didn't know where her husband had gone at this time.

"Hey, wait a minute." Cao Xiangnan stopped Sun Bailian and asked, "Have all the people outside arrived? Can we prepare to set the table?" "There are still a few uncles and cousins ​​repairing the road over there, so they may not arrive for a while." Sun Bailian said.

"Then let those who have arrived set the table first, let everyone sit down first, and we will prepare to set the table here, and those who come later will set a table when they arrive." Now it's time to get off work there, but the road is long now, and it will take some time to walk back, Cao Xiangnan said.

"Okay, I'll go call everyone to come over for dinner. You and Dapeng, come out after you finish your work here, and leave the rest for later." Sun Bailian went out and saw Chen Hong outside, and called him to come out for dinner.

"Okay, okay, I'll be right there." Chen Hong replied.

It's hot now, and the temperature in the kitchen is high. Cooking in the kitchen makes you soaked, and the last pot of food is served. Cao Xiangnan said to Cao Dapeng, who was still washing the pot inside, "Dapeng, come out, and leave the rest for later." When they

came out, the wind blew and it was much cooler.

The sun was about to set, and the workers were off work, so everyone walked back to the village along the road.

"Everyone, come and eat. We'll eat first and then we'll open the table for those who come later." Sun Bailian went to call people to come and sit down to eat.

People inside came out one after another, and the adults called the group of children who were playing to come and eat. The other children who had never played with these things wanted to continue playing, but were pulled away by their mothers, looking back every few steps.

It was dusk, and the sun was not so scorching at this time. The sunset was shining on the ground, a pale yellow. There were six large tables in the yard, and only four of them were full. The remaining two tables were occupied when people arrived.

Everyone sat down one after another, and the dishes were served. Sun Bailian then remembered that he had just been looking for his husband. He searched the room and couldn't find him. He thought he must have gone out, so he walked out the door.

As soon as Sun Bailian walked out the door, he stopped and murmured, "Dad, Mom..."

He saw his husband coming back, and naturally saw his father and mom who followed his husband. Sun Bailian couldn't remember the last time he saw his mom. Every time he went back to his parents' home, his mom avoided him and closed the door and didn't let him in. He

took a step forward uncontrollably, and then stopped. Now that he saw someone coming, his heart became timid. He stood there blankly, looking at the person getting closer and closer to him.
