Huang Jingjing was as affectionate to her as ever, calling her grandma all the time.
This made Old Lady Huang gradually relax her vigilance.
Huang Jingjing is feeling better now, and Chen Jingui's belly is getting bigger. She is approaching her due date.
Old Mrs. Huang is now looking forward to Huang Dalong coming back from the mine as soon as possible.
She had made quite a bit of money from selling snails these days, plus she had earned a few dozen taels of silver from selling rice before, so she wasn't worried at all now.
There is no need to let Huang Dalong continue to live a dangerous life in the mine.
Huang Jingjing also thought of this, "Grandma, our family is doing better now, let's ask our dad to come over someday."
As she spoke, tears began to fall uncontrollably.
"We are all eating white rice at home, but my father is still doing dangerous work in the mine. I feel very sad."
Old Lady Huang said, "Well, since you don't need to deliver snails to Qingyun Tower tomorrow, go to your father's place and bring him over."
"Okay." Huang Jingjing said happily.
The next morning, Old Mrs. Huang went to find Huang Xiaohu, and went to the mine with Huang Jingjing in a ox cart.
The mine is not far away, and the people inside are reluctant to leave in order to earn a little more money.
It turned out that Huang Dalong was planning to come back in a month or so so that he could accompany Chen Jingui's baby.
Old Mrs. Huang and Huang Jingjing couldn't wait any longer.
The two men rushed to the mining area.
The mine originally refused to release the person, so Mrs. Huang went directly to find the mine owner.
What Mrs. Huang meant was that Huang Dalong was just working here and he got paid for a day's work.
It's not sold here, and when his wife has a baby, all the work in the fields will depend on Huang Dalong, so he will never come again.
Seeing that she was not easy to deal with, the mine owner offered to deduct one hundred coins as compensation.
Seeing that the amount was within an acceptable range, Mrs. Huang agreed.
Huang Dalong could still feel distressed, but Old Lady Huang just wanted to pick him up and take him away quickly.
"Your wife is going to die soon. I can't sleep well without someone by my side at night!"
What if it breaks down in the middle of the night and no one can call for help?
Huang Dalong thought it made sense, so he paid the bill and left with Old Lady Huang.
By the time we got home, it was already dark.
As soon as Old Mrs. Huang entered the door, she called out to Chen Jingui happily.
Huang Niu ran out first, "Brother, you are here! How much silver did you bring this time?"
Old Mrs. Huang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why don't you ask your eldest brother if he is suffering or tired?"
Tao Chunhua quickly pulled the yellow cow away.
"Mom, brother, I'm going to cook."
Huang said, "Just eat some tonight, and I'll go to town to buy some more food tomorrow."
Huang Niu was still not giving up and insisted on finding out how much silver Huang Dalong had brought this time.
Old Lady Huang snorted coldly, "Old man, just put away your little thoughts. Dalong always gives me every penny he earns."
As she spoke, she took out a small cloth bag from the package, which contained ten taels of silver.
"Old man, this is the money your elder brother has earned by risking his life in the past half century."
"So much!" Huang Niu's eyes were shining, "Mom, our family has so much money now, we can eat meat every day, right? Let's go to the town to buy ten kilograms of meat tomorrow!"
"Eat, eat, eat. That's all you know how to do!"
Old Mrs. Huang was so angry that she glared at him fiercely.
"The third brother wants three taels of silver every month as a salary, so we have to keep it."
Huang Niu didn't understand what Old Lady Huang meant, so he could only roll his eyes and mutter, "The third child has been studying in town for several years, and he has spent a lot of money, but he has not achieved anything."
