A little voice inside me kept murmuring: How can these children be so well-behaved? I love them so much…
It would be a lie to say that someone in a strange world, with little memory of their past, wouldn't be afraid.
Jiang Nuan felt that she was able to accept her identity so quickly thanks to the Huang family's boundless indulgence.
To others, they may seem like a bunch of oddballs, but to themselves, they are family who support each other.
These people who are so sincere and open with me deserve my wholehearted devotion.
At this moment, Jiang Nuan made up her mind to become a vegetable vendor.
That day, Jiang Nuan and Xie Shi stayed in the county town, and the three of them slept on the big bed, kicking Huang Xiaosan out.
“Son,” Jiang Nuan pointed to the door, “you go sleep in the front, the bed is for the three of us.”
"Whatever makes you happy," Huang Xiaosan said, rubbing his nose and walking out helplessly. "After I leave, remember to lock the door and close the windows. There's a quilt in the trunk; remember to take it out and cover yourself with it so you don't catch a cold..."
“Husband,” Jin interrupted Huang Xiaosan, diligently tidying up his change of clothes, “Let’s go quickly, there won’t be any hot water later, so we can’t soak our feet.”
Huang Xiaosan looked at his wife and felt something was off.
That sounds reasonable. Why does he feel like his wife is just waiting for him to leave?
It's an illusion, definitely an illusion.
Shaking his head, Huang Xiaosan left with the clothes that Jin had prepared.
After Huang Xiaosan left, Xie hurriedly bolted the door and then closed the doors and windows.
As soon as he stepped out of his house, he heard a bang as the door slammed shut. Suddenly, Huang Xiaosan felt a sense of desolation.
I have this inexplicable feeling of being kicked out. How could this happen?
"I must have too many things to do and my mind isn't quite clear." Patting his head, Huang Xiaosan walked towards the front yard in the moonlight.
After Huang Xiaosan left, Xie immediately urged Jiang Nuan to go to sleep, "Mother, you walked so much today, you should go to sleep early, otherwise your body won't be able to take it."
As he spoke, he quickly made the bed and looked at Jiang Nuan expectantly.
"I'll go to sleep after washing my feet, no rush," Jiang Nuan replied absentmindedly while contemplating her vegetable-selling business.
As soon as Jiang Nuan finished speaking, Jin Shi came over with a basin of water. "Mother, Second Sister-in-law, the water is ready. I added some dried mugwort to it. Come and soak your feet."
"Mother, the water's here, let's soak our feet." Madam Xie eagerly came over to help Jiang Nuan. "After you soak, you can go to sleep."
Ms. Xie was really looking forward to sharing a bed with Jiang Nuan.
“I can do it myself,” Jiang Nuan said with a smile. “As I get older, my blood circulation is poor, so I need to move my legs more.”
God knows, her heart was bleeding when she said those words.
At thirty-six, she was in her prime, but she turned into a dreg of tofu.
She didn't want to constantly bring up her age, but if she said anything else, that little vixen Xie Jiao would definitely seize on it and not let it go.
I'm so tired! It's a sweet burden.
“Mother,” Jin’s eyes immediately lit up when she heard Jiang Nuan’s words, “I learned the art of foot massage from an old lady in the manor. When you wash your feet, I will massage them for you. It’s the best way to improve blood circulation.”
"You have this skill too?" Jiang Nuan looked at Jin Shi with surprise. "Sure, give me a massage later."
I indulged myself a bit today, and my body had just started to feel better when I went through all that trouble. When I finally sat down at home, I realized that my whole body was aching terribly.
I was just thinking of giving it a try myself when I learned that my third daughter-in-law had this skill, which was a wonderful surprise.
"Third sister-in-law, could you teach me?" Xie immediately seized the opportunity. "When we get home, I'll massage Mother every day."
These words made Jin's face freeze for a moment, and her eyes became evasive.
It wasn't that I was stingy with my skills, but rather that I was afraid I couldn't compare to my second sister-in-law.
She had already done something wrong, hadn't spent much time with her mother, and wasn't as good at winning her mother's favor as her second sister-in-law. If this skill of pleasing her mother were to be learned...
Will I be left to watch from the sidelines as my second sister-in-law becomes increasingly favored?
