Lin Xi swallowed back the words he was about to ask. Since his wife didn't bring it up again, he still secretly wanted to stay, even though it was shameful.
Su Qinghe took his hand and led him to Aunt Li's place to register. Lin Xi let her hold his hand and was very obedient.
Aunt Li was clearly surprised to see Su Qinghe here. Everyone in the village knew that she was a lazy gambler who could hardly be seen in the fields.
"Young man, it's good that you know your mistakes and can correct them. Go ahead, dinner will be provided tonight, just porridge and steamed buns. If you don't mind, you can stay."
Su Qinghe expressed her gratitude for Aunt Li's equal treatment and said she wanted to stay for dinner.

Aunt Li's 30 mu of land is mostly used to grow sweet potatoes. As far as the eye can see, the stems and leaves of the sweet potatoes are lush and green.
Lin Xi was carrying a hoe and preparing to dig sweet potatoes when Su Qinghe snatched it away.
"From now on, I'll do the heavy lifting. You just need to shake the mud off the sweet potatoes and put them in the basket."
"good!"
A sweet smile appeared on Lin Xi's lips; his wife felt sorry for him!
In the past, he did all the chores at home, whether light or heavy, and Su Qinghe never helped him. Although he didn't know why she suddenly changed her personality, he hoped that this kind of life could continue.
