At this time, Mu Sanniang, who was helping someone wash clothes in the shed, heard her daughter talking outside the door. She wiped the water off her hands and ran out, "Shuangshuang, why are you back? Aren't you at work?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Sanniang saw that there was a man and a woman following her daughter. "Who are they?"
Qin Shuangshuang happily took Mu Sanniang's hand and introduced her, "Mom, I found my cousin! He is the cousin that grandpa has been talking about for so many years."
Mu Sanniang stared at Gu Mingtai seriously several times, and suddenly realized that this man did look quite similar to her dead sister-in-law.
"Are you really Junming?" Mu Sanniang looked at him in disbelief and asked.
"I am indeed the child lost by the Nie family, but my name is no longer Junming. My name is now Gu Mingtai. This is the name given to me by my master who found me. I will always call myself this from now on."
Mu Sanniang's chest was filled with resentment towards the Nie family. She clapped her hands and praised, "Good, she has backbone. As expected, she is born by my sister-in-law. She is like her, not like those ruthless people in the Nie family."
"Mom!" Qin Shuangshuang pulled the corner of Mu Sanniang's clothes with an embarrassed look on her face and interrupted her.
Mu Sanniang was not happy to be interrupted and said angrily, "Why did you pull me in? Did I say anything wrong? Aren't those people from the Nie family a bunch of ruthless people? They took over our Qin family's property and angered your aunt to death. No matter how many years pass, I will say bad things about their family. Heaven is wise, and retribution has not yet arrived."
Looking at Mu Sanniang who was scolding the Nie family, Zhang Meng suddenly liked this Mu Sanniang. Maybe it was because she also hated the Nie family now, and now she had found a like-minded person, so she naturally felt a sense of affinity with them.
"Aunt, the retribution of the Nie family has come. You just have to wait and see what happens to their family." Zhang Meng shouted to her happily.
Zhang Meng was stunned by the sound of scolding the happy Mu Sanniang. She looked at Gu Mingtai in astonishment, "You're married? This is your wife?"
Gu Mingtai smiled and took Zhang Meng's hand, his action was self-explanatory.
When Mu Sanniang saw them holding hands, the smile on her face widened and she said happily, "It's good to get married, it's good to get married. If my sister-in-law were still alive, she would be very happy." As she said that, Mu Sanniang couldn't help turning her head and wiping away her tears.
At this time, a sound like someone coughing as if he had exhausted all his life came from inside the shed.
"It's your grandpa, go in quickly. If he sees that you have found it, he will be very happy. Maybe this long-standing illness will be cured immediately." Mu Sanniang happily took their hands and walked inside.
As soon as you walk in, you'll smell a mixture of different flavors.
"Dad, look who's here?" Mu Sanniang happily took them both by the hand and walked to a bed made of wooden boards.
Lying on it was an extremely skinny old man. Perhaps because he had been ill for too long, not only was his hair thinning, but his face was also completely pale.
The old man slowly opened his eyes, staring at Gu Mingtai's face with his dark eyes, "Xiang'er!"
No one expected the old man to get up from the ground and rush over excitedly.
Fortunately, Gu Mingtai, who had been a soldier for many years, reacted quickly. When Old Man Qin pounced on him, he held him tightly with both hands to prevent him from slipping.
"Dad, are you okay?" Mu Sanniang came over to check with a pale face.
"Aunt, please move aside for a moment and let me help grandpa lie back on the bed."
Gu Mingtai picked up Old Man Qin and laid him back on the bed.
"You are not Xiang'er, who are you? How come you look so much like Xiang'er!" Old Master Qin grabbed Gu Mingtai's arm excitedly.
Gu Mingtai looked at the hand holding his arm and whispered, "Grandpa, I am your grandson."
Old Master Qin was stunned when he looked at him. Suddenly, his eyes turned red as he tightly grasped Gu Mingtai's arm, his voice choked with sobs. "Okay, okay, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
"Dad, this is good news. Why are you crying? Stop crying!" Mu Sanniang stepped forward to wipe Mr. Qin's tears.
When Zhang Meng saw how filial Mu Sanniang was, she liked her aunt whom she had just met even more.
After finally stopping crying, Old Master Qin immediately ordered Mu Sanniang, "Hurry up and cook. Let Junming stay at our house for dinner. It's ready."
The smile on Mu Sanniang's face froze for a moment, but she quickly responded happily, "I see, Dad. I'll go right away."
When Mu Sanniang went out, Zhang Meng glanced at Gu Mingtai. Gu Mingtai nodded, and Zhang Meng quickly followed Mu Sanniang out.
Outside, Qin Shuangshuang was helping Mu Sanniang wash the remaining clothes.
"Mom, didn't I tell you not to take other people's clothes to wash anymore? I'm already working, and I'll make money to support you, Dad, and Grandpa."
Qin Shuangshuang, who was washing clothes, saw her mother coming out and immediately said.
Mu Sanniang smiled guiltily, "Mom, you've been staying at home with nothing to do, so why not find some clothes to wash? This way, the family can have an extra income, and you and your dad won't have to work so hard. It will also cover Grandpa's medical expenses. How great is that, don't you think?"
Qin Shuangshuang glared at her and said softly, "Anyway, I don't need you to work so hard. Don't take it again next time."
Mu Sanniang smiled flatteringly and agreed, "Okay, okay, Mom promises you that next time I won't take other people's clothes to wash. By the way, your cousin and his family are coming to our house for dinner for the first time, so go buy some rice and meat!"
Qin Shuangshuang frowned, "Does our family still have money?"
Their family's money is almost used up at the beginning of each month. Now it's only the middle of the month, and she and her father haven't received their salaries yet. The meals they've eaten these past few days have been nothing but water.
Mu Sanniang rubbed her rough hands in embarrassment. "What should we do? Your cousin and his family are here for the first time. If we don't invite them to dinner, they will think we don't welcome them."
"Aunt, cousin, so you are here." Zhang Meng shouted from behind them.
In fact, she had been standing here for a while and heard everything the mother and daughter said.
Mu Sanniang and Qin Shuangshuang, who were still unaware of the situation, quickly stopped their conversation.
Zhang Meng walked towards them and said with a smile, "Aunt, can you let my cousin accompany me for a walk outside? I'm new here and I'm not very familiar with this place! Is that okay?"
Mu Sanniang immediately responded with a smile, "Of course."
He immediately turned around and instructed Qin Shuangshuang, "Take good care of your cousin-in-law and don't let her get lost."
Qin Shuangshuang glanced at Mu Sanniang hesitantly, and finally nodded, "Mom, your daughter is still a child, how could I lose my cousin's wife? You underestimate me."
