"There's so much, you didn't eat much!" This is too spectacular.
"Aunt, where are the four pigs? We agreed that they would have two and you would have two. I told them to be generous with the food since you didn't know when you would be back, but they didn't listen."
"Even if I take some away, I won't be able to take much. So, find two people to get some sawdust and hang the meat up to smoke dry. This way, it will last a long time and won't be a problem in hot weather."
"We have sawdust here. I'll have someone smoke the meat tomorrow."
"Manager Wang, go call everyone over."
"Hey, boss, please wait a moment. I'll go call someone." Wang Shiwen left.
Shufeng looked at her and said, "Aunt, are you going to give money to people again?"
"How do you know?"
"Just now, when Xiaohua and I were carrying oranges, I saw that the other basket was full of silver. Auntie, did you make a lot of money?"
"Your father has made a lot of money, so at least you won't have to worry about your dowry anymore."
"Hey, don't bring up the idea of getting married. Every time I go back, my mother always asks why I can't wait two years to get married. I think you're fine being alone now, why do you have to get married?" She looked at Chunxiao irritably, "Aunt, can you talk to my mother about this? There's no rush."
Chun Xiao spread her hands and said, "It's hard for me to say this. This is a matter of life and death for you. Your mother has the final say. I, your aunt, am at best a failure case and not worth referring to."
"Why can't I use it as a reference? I think it's fine. Forget it, let's not talk about it."
"You little girl, you are so smart, don't talk nonsense outside. What girl doesn't get married? Let your parents watch you carefully. Think about your parents, your uncle and aunt, they are living such a good life, what are you afraid of?"
"I'm not afraid, I just, I just, oh, I can't explain it clearly."
"You've been reading the storybook secretly, haven't you?"
Shufeng was shocked, "Aunt, you know this too!"
"Let me tell you, the stories in the vernacular novels are unreliable. Most of them only tell the first half, and the second half is always tragic. I'll tell you about it when I have time."
Wang Shiwen quickly came over with his men, "Boss, everyone is here."
Most people had mud on their hands. Seeing her smiling face, Chun Xiao took a look. Not bad, at least she wasn't as skinny and pale as before. She had gained some weight now. "Go wash your hands first."
She stood in the yard and called two people, "Go and take the backpack off the carriage for me."
The two got into the car and were extremely happy when they got out.
"Aunt, look, everyone has the same expression when they see money." Shufeng stood behind Chunxiao, "Hey, I don't even have that much money."
"Don't worry, your father must have saved more than this for you."
People quickly washed their hands and came over. They lined up consciously and looked at her quietly, waiting for her to speak.
"Everyone worked so hard last year when I was away. The benefits that were supposed to be distributed to everyone during the Chinese New Year were not distributed. Today, I will make up for it," she said, looking at Wang Shiwen. "Give everyone 5 taels of silver from this backpack. You can take 10 taels for yourself, and the rest will be put into the public account."
Wang Shiwen happily distributed money to everyone.
"Thank you, sir."
"Thank you, sir."
Everyone who took the money had a big smile on their face and bowed to her to express their gratitude. For them, every time the boss came back, there were good things, so how could they not be happy and grateful.
After the money was distributed, Chunxiao talked to Wang Shiwen again, saying that she was afraid she would not stay here this year, and asked him to make his own arrangements. As long as it was not a matter of principle, he was not afraid. If there was an emergency and he did not have enough money, he could go to Yanjia Village to find his family. In short, he was still in charge of the major arrangements.
After Zhuangzi had checked everything and settled everything, she took Shufeng home.
"Aunt, when are you leaving this time? Can I go with you to take a look? I'll stay with my dad and the others and won't bother you."
"Your father may not even go this time, let alone you."
"My dad isn't going? Why? Doesn't he need someone to watch over there?"
"It's all for you. I'm afraid your second uncle will have to go this time. But this matter hasn't been finalized yet. Anyway, don't even think about it."
Shufeng in the carriage suddenly fell in expression, "How boring! I should have stayed young."
Everyone has the troubles of growing up. When you reach a certain age, you have to make the choices you should make. No one can escape it.
As soon as Chunxiao returned home, Zhou pulled her into the house to talk.
"Today, your sister-in-law and I went to see your Uncle Shizhu. He was so happy and kept saying that Dongsheng was not worthy of Shufeng. He said he would do it as soon as Dongsheng came back. I told him that this matter only needed to be kept between the two families and not to be spread to anyone else."
"Are you afraid that it will be bad for Shufeng's reputation if you tell her?"
"Yes, Dongsheng is still on the battlefield. If, by any chance, something unexpected happens and the marriage fails, it wouldn't sound good if it were spread out. It's better to be cautious."
Well, I'm afraid their understanding of reputation is a little different. No matter what, it's a good thing. Tian has no objection, and the eldest brother should be happy. Besides, people from the same village can meet each other anytime they want in the future. It's really good.
The weather was good today. Chunxiao and Zhou took out the quilt to dry it in the sun. "Mom, tomorrow is Qingming Festival. Will my aunt and the others come?"
"It doesn't matter whether she comes or not, but her wife really shouldn't come. I'm really fed up with her."
"Since you embarrassed them like that last year, I think you probably won't come."
Zhou looked outside the yard. Yan Bingfa should be working in the fields right now. Even Xiaohua had gone to help. "Your father didn't tell me, but I'm telling you, he also really hates that nephew's wife. She's unreasonable, sarcastic, and mean. I only now realize that people like your aunt are still pretty good."
