The autumn harvest is here in the blink of an eye.
Anyone who had a little strength in every household came out to help, even a three-year-old child had to carry some straw.
Every dog passing by had a bundle of straw on its back.
After a year of hard work, the villagers rely on the food in the fields to survive the winter!
The villagers were very busy, and the Song family was no exception.
During the previous summer harvest, the Song family did not let Jiang Cheng go to the fields, and it was the same this time.
But Jiang Cheng insisted on going down to help.
Now Mr. Song's condition has improved a lot, so there is no problem in letting him do the logistical work.
Xu Sanniang and Song Tingzhi couldn't argue with him, so they had to agree.
That day, Jiang Cheng was harvesting rice in the rice field. Song Tingzhi specially picked a place for Jiang Cheng where the sun couldn't shine so that Jiang Cheng wouldn't be too tired.
"Oh - the precious daughter-in-law of the Song family has also gone to work in the fields. I thought the Song family loved you and would let you stay in the fields for the rest of your life!"
The land of Mrs. Qian's family is not far from the land of the Song family. Mrs. Qian feels so happy when she sees Jiang Cheng bending down to cut rice!
Zhang Ermei is also watching from the side!
Although he didn't say anything, the expression of watching the fun was already on his face.
Zhang Ermei didn't want to go out at first, but Qiu received the message, and Mrs. Qian was reluctant to let her beloved son go to work in the fields, so she dragged Zhang Ermei out.
Fortunately, everyone was busy and had no time to gossip about Zhang Ermei.
Mrs. Qian spoke so loudly that many people glanced over.
This is quite exciting to watch!
Jiang Cheng sighed, straightened up, and looked at Mrs. Qian and Zhang Ermei.
"Aunt Qian, what you said is wrong! It's harvest time now, and everyone in the village who has some strength is out working. As the daughter-in-law of the Song family, I naturally have to contribute!"
"According to Aunt Qian, as long as someone at home dotes on you, you don't have to work! If my second sister gets married in the future, will she not have to work as long as her husband dotes on her?"
"And Aunt Qian, I heard you have a precious son, how come I haven't seen him? Could he be lazing around in bed? If that's the case, I feel bad for your future brothers and sisters-in-law!"
Jiang Cheng kept talking, but he didn't make himself clear.
He just mentioned Zhang Xiaobao, and besides, he didn't come in the first place!
When the people around heard this, they all nodded and thought it made sense.
Don’t marry a lazy daughter! Don’t marry a lazy son!
"You little bitch! I'll rip your mouth apart!"
Mrs. Qian was so angry!
After Jiang Cheng said this, how could his own children get married?
Mrs. Qian wanted to go over and tear Jiang Cheng's mouth apart, but she was stopped before she could run over.
"Aunt Qian, what are you doing?"
Song Tingzhi had been watching from the side for a long time. Seeing that something was wrong, he stood in front of Jiang Cheng.
Mrs. Qian was startled when she saw Song Tingzhi suddenly running out.
Seeing Song Tingzhi's stern face and tall stature, Mrs. Qian didn't dare to move for a moment.
"what are you up to?"
Mrs. Qian took a few steps back and looked at Song Tingzhi warily.
"I will do whatever Aunt Qian does. If Aunt Qian does nothing, I will naturally do nothing."
Song Tingzhi walked forward a few steps, his eyes fixed on Mrs. Qian.
"Haha, what can I do?"
Mrs. Qian gave a few fake smiles and took Zhang Ermei home whenever she had the chance.
After the farce ended, the villagers dispersed as they saw there was nothing more to perform.
Everyone goes about their own business!
During the day, Xu Sanniang worked far away and didn't pay much attention to what happened. She only found out about it when she was on her way home.
He was so angry that he went to Mrs. Qian's house and made a scene before coming back.
After hearing this, Jiang Cheng kept praising Xu Sanniang, and little Song Yu also echoed her.
The days of autumn harvest passed one by one. Although everyone was busy, the satisfaction in their hearts far outweighed the physical fatigue when they looked at the piles of grain.
One night, when the Song family was about to rest, they suddenly heard a "bang bang" sound outside.
"Who is it?" Xu Sanniang put on her coat and went to open the door muttering.
"Aunt Xu——"
As soon as Xu Sanniang opened the door, she saw He Xiaomi standing at the door with tears and a sad face.
"It's Xiaomi! Why are you here so late at night?"
Xu Sanniang looked surprised.
"Aunt Xu, is Jiang Cheng here?" He Xiaomi wiped her tears.
"Here, here, here." Xu Sanniang called towards the side room, "Chengcheng! Xiaomi is here to see you!"
"Come in first!"
Xu Sanniang stepped aside to let He Xiaomi come in first.
Jiang Cheng was chatting with Song Tingzhi in the room when he was suddenly startled by Xu Sanniang's shout.
"What's wrong?"
When Jiang Cheng opened the door, he bumped into He Xiaomi, who looked like she was crying.
"Xiaomi! What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Cheng helped He Xiaomi in and gave Song Tingzhi a look to signal him to leave.
Song Tingzhi scratched his head, knowing that it was not convenient for him to listen to the secret conversation between the brothers, so he went out.
"what happens?"
Jiang Cheng closed the door tightly, sat down beside the bed, poured another glass of water and handed it to He Xiaomi.
"My father is back." He Xiaomi said while crying.
"Your father!" Jiang Cheng suddenly thought of something, "Uncle He is back?"
"Yes." He Xiaomi nodded and slowly explained the reason.
An hour ago, He Xiaomi was carving something in the house when she heard some noise outside. She was not going to go out, but He's mother sounded very excited.
He Xiaomi went out to take a look.
When I looked, I saw that it was He's mother hugging someone and crying.
He Xiaomi walked closer and saw that it was He's father!
"What are you coming back for?"
He Xiaomi interrupted the hug between He's father and mother and shouted loudly.
The two were startled, let go of their hands and looked at He Xiaomi.
"Xiaomi, what are you talking about? This is your dad!"
He's mother walked over to He Xiaomi, pulled his sleeve and said.
"Is he still my father? Is he worthy of being my father?" He Xiaomi looked at He's father resentfully, "Mom, have you forgotten how they came to collect the debt more than a month ago! Where has he been for all this time? He was a coward when we needed him, and now he's back again after they stopped looking for him. Does he still want this family?"
He Xiaomi started crying as she spoke.
"Xiaomi, don't cry!" He's mother felt bad seeing him crying.
"Millet--"
Father He took a few steps forward, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.
Such a grown man standing there with his hands and feet tied.
"Don't come over here." He Xiaomi looked at his father and said, "I can't live without you as my father! If he's in this family, there's no me!"
"Xiaomi——" He's mother looked hesitant.
"Okay, you're not leaving, right? I'll leave now, okay?"
After saying that, He Xiaomi wiped her tears and ran out.
"Xiaomi--" He's mother hurried to chase after He Xiaomi, but he ran too fast and she couldn't catch up with him. She could only touch her chest and gasp for breath.
He Xiaomi had nowhere to go so she had to come to Jiang Cheng.
He Xiaomi cried as she spoke before she told Jiang Cheng everything.
