She poured out a small cup and fed it to Xiao Liu.
It immediately collapsed.
A moment later, as if he had taken a super tonic, he ran wildly around the yard.
Jiang Nuan was worried about Huang Xiaoliu, but Huang Xiaoliu was completely absorbed in its own world, its moo filled with barely suppressed excitement.
When she saw Xiao Liu smash the stone table in the courtyard to pieces, she was so shocked that she immediately covered her mouth, "How could this be so incredible?"
To smash a stone table to pieces, it must have taken at least several thousand kilograms of force.
After confirming that Huang Xiaoliu was alright, she returned to her space and continued to ponder the matter of the well water.
The next day, when Jiang Nuan came out, she finally understood why Huang Xiaoliu had been running away.
It was just like a perfect tonic pill; a ball of fire burned in my dantian, as if it was about to burst forth.
However, the effects can be gradually dissipated by practicing the exercises.
Afterwards, I felt like I had undergone a spiritual transformation.
Jiang Nuan thought it was her imagination. After seeing her reflection in the bronze mirror that morning, she fell completely silent.
Her figure was graceful and delicate, her eyes bright and captivating, and even before she uttered a word, a subtle fragrance wafted through the air.
It not only enhances appearance but also fosters a light and graceful temperament.
Suddenly, I was reborn.
The world is becoming more and more fantastical.
She took a deep breath, covered her fair skin with powder, and carefully checked it again before leaving the room.
Although Xiao Liu made a lot of noise, it was in the front yard and didn't disturb anyone's rest much. Only the teacher was worried and didn't dare to go to sleep until he calmed down.
Having received the benefit, it immediately became Jiang Nuan's lackey, constantly circling around her and occasionally letting out a soft moo to assert its presence.
"Mom," Old Huang asked curiously, "how did you coax it?"
Ever since we took it to the butcher, the cow has been acting strangely and hasn't spoken to us for several days.
"It has always been very obedient without needing to be coaxed."
“Indeed,” Huang Laoda nodded in agreement, “It has always listened to its mother.”
Whether it was cleaning the cowshed or mixing the fodder, Mother never interfered, yet Xiao Liu always listened to her the most—it was so strange.
“Maybe,” Jiang Nuan said jokingly, “I’m more likable.”
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie nodded solemnly, "Mother is indeed pleasing."
Jiang Nuan couldn't help but laugh, "You're such a clever little thing."
"Your father and I need to go home for a visit," Grandma Jiang suddenly said.
"Why? Are you worried that Jiang Xu won't be able to harvest the crops well?"
"It's not that," Grandma Jiang explained. "I feel like I'm about to collapse, so I'm going home to stretch my muscles."
“If you miss your son, just say so,” Jiang Nuan said with a smile. “I won’t stop you from going back.”
The old woman, whose thoughts had been exposed, felt very uncomfortable. "You brat, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."
“I’ll go see them off,” Boss Huang said first, “and bring Jiang Chao back with me.”
"Strange," Huang Lao Er muttered, "those three acres of land should have been harvested long ago, why hasn't Jiang Chao returned yet?"
"How about we go take a look together?" Jiang Nuan suggested.
“No way,” Grandma Jiang immediately objected, “It’s too conspicuous for such a large family. We can go back by ourselves. You all take good care of the house.”
She never told her daughter that after the Huang family's fortunes improved, the village had no shortage of people trying to take advantage of them.
He was always thinking of sending his daughter over to live with him.
Since the girl she met on a blind date last time came back, the old lady has gained a new understanding of how shameless the girl is, and she doesn't want her own child to be taken advantage of.
“Alright then,” Jiang Nuan nodded, “Let’s go to the estate and see how those people have tidied up the villa.”
She genuinely disliked the heat in town.
"Whatever," Grandma Jiang waved her hand, "I can't control these things."
The old lady was very worried about her family, so she finished her meal quickly and left.
Because there were no servants, doing housework took some time.
Unexpectedly, someone came to the door at this time.
Invite them to a side room and serve them tea.
Jiang Nuan asked with a smile, "You wouldn't come here without a reason, Village Chief. Is there anything I can do for you today?"
Without hesitation, Brother Huang stated his purpose directly: "Your second daughter-in-law's family has sent a message asking her to go back home."
"I'm busy," Xie replied lazily, "I don't have time to go back."
It's not that she's afraid of being gossiped about; she doesn't even want to go back for the New Year, let alone now.
In short, there wasn't a single good person in that family. I survived because I was lucky, and it had nothing to do with them.
Jiang Nuan rubbed her forehead, glared at her, and then turned to ask, "Did you say anything?"
“I told you,” Huang Sige looked at Xie Shi with complicated eyes, “you have no choice but to go back this time, your father is gone.”
"My father is gone?" Madam Xie was stunned for a moment. "Really?"
“They’re all coming to report a death, how could it be fake?” Brother Huang frowned. “Who would joke about something like this?”
"It's not about causing harm and leaving behind..."
"Ahem," Jiang Nuan interrupted her, "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and pack your things and go."
Even if you dislike your parents, you shouldn't say that in front of outsiders, or you'll give them something to talk about.
Madam Xie didn't care about these things, but she also understood that her mother-in-law was doing it for her own good, so she pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
"Please excuse the poor village chief. These two don't think before they speak, but they have very soft hearts." As she spoke, she turned to her and instructed, "Remember to bring the fabric you bought for your in-laws last time, and bring plenty of soft pastries, which are suitable for the elderly and children."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Xie realized she had said the wrong thing and became exceptionally well-behaved and sensible.
However, she didn't bring any of the things Jiang Nuan mentioned; it's understandable that she couldn't think of those things in her haste.
Even now, Xie still doesn't believe that her father has really gone.
The Xie family's conditions weren't particularly bad. They had a dozen or so acres of land and not many people. Even if they couldn't eat every meal, they could still manage to get about 80% full. It was only the girls who suffered.
They didn't give them food, clothes, or shelter, and forced them to work constantly, treating them almost like animals.
When they grow up, you can exchange the dowry for another dowry; it's a win-win situation.
Recalling the past that she had tried so hard to forget, Xie became gloomy and her face turned cold.
"Wife," Huang Lao Er said, looking around to make sure no one was there, and then pulled her into his arms. "Don't think about it anymore, it's all in the past."
“I just don’t understand,” her voice was muffled, “they’re all our own children, so why is there such a big difference between men and women? Are girls just supposed to die?”
"Of course not, look, Mother wouldn't think that way."
“People like my mother are very rare; you can’t find more than a few in the surrounding area,” Xie said, pursing her lips. “Most people are like my parents.”
What's most heartbreaking is that after enduring so much hardship and suffering, and finally escaping death, the pressure of filial piety still forces you to come.
She couldn't bring herself to never see him again, even if she wanted to.
“We just shouldn’t be those kinds of people,” Huang Lao Er chuckled, “and instead treat Daya like a precious treasure.”
"Needless to say, I will definitely cherish my daughter. My son will be second only to her in the future."
"I'll do whatever you say, whatever you say."
"What an idiot!"
Madam Xie gave her a reproachful look, but her mood improved considerably.
