Chapter 148 Door-to-Door Visit



This is why she chose to solve the problem in a brutal way.

"Really?" Lai Zi couldn't contain his excitement and started babbling incoherently, "That's good, that's good!"

After waiting for so long, the person has finally arrived.

“Auntie,” Lai Zi said, forgetting about his meal, “I’m going to find a matchmaker right now.”

Jiang Nuan made stir-fried radish and pork today, with more radish than pork, because she was worried that too much oil would upset people's stomachs.

In addition, a pot of bone broth was specially prepared for the people of Jijia Village.

Amidst everyone's gratitude, they came and went in a hurry.

"Mom, we can come next time, you don't need to come along."

The oxcart was very bumpy, and Jiang Nuan was always uncomfortable riding in it, something Xie Shi noticed very clearly.

“These are things that no one else can do for you, you have to do them yourself,” Jiang Nuan poured herself a glass of water and drank it down. “Don’t worry, it’s only once, it will be over after the corvée labor.”

The more hardship she endures now, the more grateful the villagers will be.

“Mother,” Xie Shi came over to massage Jiang Nuan’s shoulders, “What reputation? Why care so much? Even without a good reputation, our family is still doing well. It’s not worth torturing yourself for this.”

“If it were just me, I definitely wouldn’t care,” Jiang Nuan sighed. “But there are more than a dozen people in our family, big and small, and we’ll be living in the village for a long time to come. We can’t let the village ostracize us because of me.”

Although you can buy a village, as long as you don't change your household registration, you'll still have to deal with the villagers.

Jiang Nuan felt it was worth it to suffer once and then enjoy peace and quiet later on.

“Then Mother doesn’t have to do everything herself,” Xie complained softly. “You can leave the cooking to us, and Mother can just watch from the side.”

“Alright,” Jiang Nuan accepted her daughter-in-law’s kindness, “I’ll leave it to you from now on.”

The two were exchanging tender words when a series of urgent knocks came from outside the door.

"Who would come at this time?" Jiang Nuan looked at the gate in confusion. "Could it be Han Yi?"

This guy hasn't been here for a while; it's about time he came.

"I'll go take a look," Xie said, straightening her clothes as she went to open the door.

"Huang Shu's wife," Liao asked urgently, "where is your mother? Is she inside?"

"What are you doing at my house?" Xie asked, her eyes filled with disgust when she saw the visitor. "My mother isn't here. You can leave."

In Huangjiakou, the person Xie hated most was Liao Chunhua, without exception.

"Really?" Liao placed her hand on the door and squeezed her way in. "Let me see. If it's really not there, I'll leave."

"Aunt Chunhua," Xie Shi said, her eyebrows furrowing in anger, "Are you deaf? I told you to leave, why do you insist on coming over here?"

With that, he slammed the door shut. "Get out of here, you're not welcome in our house."

Upon hearing this, Liao pretended not to hear and instead pushed the door even harder, shouting at the top of her lungs, "Jiang Meizi, I've come to find you."

“Jiaojiao,” Jiang Nuan said, her face darkening, “let her in.”

Jiang Nuan had been subtly inquiring about the grudges between Liao Chunhua and the original owner of this body for a long time, and she had learned quite a bit about it.

Her reputation is at least half her fault.

The two had long been mortal enemies, and behind each other's backs, they had often cursed each other's ancestors.

Over the years, through numerous battles, the Jiang family has consistently maintained the upper hand, and the Liao family has been unable to do anything about it, always avoiding it whenever possible.

Why did they suddenly come to our door today?

"Hmm." After giving a cold snort, Madam Xie reluctantly let the person in.

However, she did not lower her guard and followed behind Liao closely, never leaving her side.
