"Aunt, are you really leaving?"
"Auntie, please say something!"
Old Madam Xia smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, everyone. We have to leave. Jinjun's wife has found her mother and is worried about us. After weighing the pros and cons, we should follow her to the capital."
"Ah, although it's a good thing, we can't bear to see you go."
It's true that they are reluctant to let them go, but Old Mrs. Xia also knows that what everyone is more worried about is that once they leave, no one will give them the opportunity to make money again.
After all, every family has to make money to eat.
Old Lady Xia smiled faintly, "We can't bear to leave you either, but it's not like you won't come back in the future. Jinheng and his wife also have business here, so you still have to come back often. Besides, the second son's wife said that you guys can do the embroidery business as you wish, and the people from Jinyifang will come to our village to collect it."
The issue that everyone is most concerned about has been resolved, but we have been living in the same village for almost a lifetime, and the feelings between us are not fake.
What’s more, the Xia family has helped the village so much.
Without them, we wouldn't be living the life we have today.
"You are so kind to Jinjun's wife."
Old Madam Xia smiled and said, "That's true. Jinjun's wife is also very kind to me. People are kind to each other. Besides, this is the capital."
"Then what are you going to do there? Is there a place to stay? Can Jinjun's wife's family help?"
Everyone is talking at the same time.
Old Mrs. Xia also answered, but when she saw Mrs. Yang, she suddenly didn't want to keep a low profile anymore.
"Our Jinjun wife's mother is a princess, Jinjun wife is a county lady, and Xiao Zhiliao has also become a county lady. This is a great thing, right?"
The corner of Mrs. Yang's mouth twitched. She was about to laugh at her for bragging without fear of biting her tongue, but then she felt that something was wrong.
If it is false, it would be a serious crime. Old Mrs. Xia must be tired of living.
But no one thought the same as her, and naturally they all trusted Old Madam Xia very much.
"Oh my God, Jinjun's wife is a princess, so how did she end up like this? I can't believe it, auntie, you are so lucky."
It would be a lie to say I'm not envious.
A farmer would not dare to think that his wife is a princess even if his ancestral tomb was on fire for ten days, right?
"You hid it really well. You knew it a long time ago, right?"
Old Madam Xia smiled and said, "We just found out not long ago. There's nothing to hide. She is her, and we are us. Don't we have to live our lives as usual?"
While everyone was saying nice things to Old Lady Xia, they were looking at Old Lady Yang, who was now completely jealous.
Mrs. Yang has been competing with others all her life, but what is the result?
Both herself and her children and grandchildren are better than her.
At this moment, Mrs. Yang was like a deflated ball. She glanced at Old Lady Xia and instantly lost her spirit. She no longer had the energy to mock or compare.
She left in dejection.
Moving is not something that can be done quickly. During the remaining time, the Xia family had many guests, some came to talk, and some came to deliver gifts.
For a countryman, any egg is good. Although it is not presentable, it is the best gift.
Old Madam Xia asked Cheng Han to write down everything and return the gifts before leaving.
Their lives have become better now, and they cannot take advantage of others.
"Mom, I've got it all down."
Old Lady Xia nodded, "Cheng Han, you are different from the fourth son's wife. Your parents are still alive. We will come back after we go to the capital, but we won't be able to see each other as often as we do now. What are your parents' plans?"
Cheng Han said softly, "Mom, I understand what you mean. I have also told them that I want to wait until Jinyu and I are settled and can make some money before taking them over, but they said they don't want to leave."
"They are afraid of causing trouble for you. Go back and tell them that you are their mother and I agreed to let them come. They only have one daughter like you, and sooner or later they will have to rely on you."
Cheng Han was touched, "Mom, you are so kind to me."
"Okay, it's okay for them not to go now. When you and Jinyu are settled, you can bring them over. But mother has already said it. When you got married, you agreed to let Jinyu take care of them in their old age. This has not changed."
Cheng Han nodded, feeling indescribably grateful.
There was nothing to worry about for Xia Jinxiu. All that was left was to help the chef prepare the signature dishes so that the guests would not feel that the quality had declined in her absence.
After staying in the kitchen for too long, she wanted to come out for some fresh air, but unexpectedly she met Mu Zhanpeng.
"Master Mu, why are you here? It's cold, come in and have a cup of hot tea."
The relationship between the two families is not ordinary now, but even if it was someone she knew, Xia Jinxiu would do the same.
Open a business and make friends.
Mu Zhanpeng cleared his throat and said, "Thank you, Miss Xia."
"Oh, don't be so polite, just call me Jinxiu." Xia Jinxiu made tea herself and brought two plates of snacks.
"Why are you here alone? Is this official business or..."
Mu Zhanpeng took a sip of water, but he was still a little flustered. "It's not official business. I just came here to take a look and buy some things for the children."
Xia Jinxiu didn't think much about it. Their family didn't have a mistress, so didn't someone need to take care of the children's affairs?
"Lord Mu, you are such a good father." Xia Jinxiu said.
She had never seen her father, nor had she ever enjoyed fatherly love. Although her mother never complained, she didn't think her father was that good after hearing what her brothers said about him.
Drinking and hitting people is not good for children either.
Mu Zhanpeng felt a little guilty, "I heard from Zhuo Xuan that your family moved to the capital?"
Xia Jinxiu smiled and said, "Yes, it happened a little suddenly, but there is nothing we can do. My second sister-in-law found my mother, and we don't want to be separated as a family, so we have no choice but to go."
"Beijing is great, Beijing is great."
"Oh, wait a minute!"
Mu Zhanpeng saw Xia Jinxiu suddenly turn around and go to the counter, and quickly took out a gray cloth bag from it and handed it to him.
"This is……"
"This is the shoe I made for Zhuoxuan. My needlework is not that good, and it can't compare to my second sister-in-law's. But Zhuoxuan is a very likable child. When he saw me, he kept calling me aunt tall and aunt short. I didn't have anything to give him, so I made him a pair of shoes. The stitches are relatively large. He can only wear them at home. If he goes out, I'm afraid people will laugh at him."
At this moment, Mu Zhanpeng was actually a little envious of his son.
He doesn't even have anyone to make shoes for him.
"Miss Xia, that's ridiculous. Zhuo Xuan will be very happy if he knows about this." Mu Zhanpeng said, "It's a blessing for this kid to meet you."
"Don't say that. He is also a lovely child." Xia Jinxiu said with a smile, "I also told him that if there is a chance in the future, you can take him to the capital to play, and I will definitely make delicious food for him."
Mu Zhanpeng looked at her, and the little flame in his heart jumped for a moment, but soon went out.
How can I be worthy of such a good girl?
