"What's that in the back of Gu Laosan's car? Are they fish? Two of them, and they're so big, wow..."
Suddenly, someone exclaimed in surprise, looking on with envy.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and it was indeed true.
Since marrying Jiang Jinxiu, the Gu family has been eating meat every few days, which they really envy.
Some people even unconsciously swallowed.
Gu Xichen and Jiang Jinxiu would take the roadside banyan tree to get home.
Upon seeing everyone, Jiang Jinxiu greeted them politely.
Gu Xichen remained silent, as always.
However, upon seeing Yang Dongmei, he still called her "Mother".
Seeing the two return, Yang Dongmei also said goodbye to her old friends.
The older women looked at Yang Dongmei's retreating figure with envy.
Many people used to laugh at Yang Dongmei, but now they only feel envy.
My husband is back, and my youngest son and daughter-in-law are so kind.
However, some people were jealous, saying that Gu Xichen relied on women.
But this was immediately refuted by others who were close to the Gu family.
Some say he was envious and jealous.
Of course, Jiang Jinxiu and the others were unaware of the reactions of the crowd, and even if they had known, they wouldn't have paid any attention.
In this life, she only wants to live their own lives well and will not live according to the opinions of others.
When Gu Xichen and Jiang Jinxiu returned home, the first and second wives had already used the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Gu Xilan was picking water spinach when she saw Gu Xichen return carrying two large grass carp, and she was overjoyed.
"Third brother, third brother, shall we have fish tonight?"
Gu Xichen nodded, and Gu Xilan immediately raised her hand and cheered.
Seeing how happy she was, Jiang Jinxiu smiled too.
This girl really wears her heart on her sleeve.
"Xichen, what can we use to trade for tofu with the village chief?"
"Take some eggs with you," Yang Dongmei replied as she returned, having overheard Jiang Jinxiu's words.
As she spoke, she put the things away and went into the kitchen to pack the eggs.
Jiang Jinxiu thought about how much trouble her younger brother had caused the village chief recently, so she went inside and got two more apples.
Just as she was leaving, she saw her mother-in-law packing three eggs and a large bag of diced radishes for her.
"Here, take these and trade them with your Aunt Pang for some tofu. She loves my diced radish." Yang Dongmei said this with a hint of pride.
However, Jiang Jinxiu also admitted that her mother-in-law's diced radish was indeed delicious and went particularly well with rice.
Back when I gave it to Gu Xichen at the military base, it was one of the best-selling pickled vegetables.
Just as Jiang Jinxiu was about to leave with her things, Gu Xilan, who had already picked some greens, volunteered to go to the village chief's house to exchange them for tofu.
With someone willing to help, Jiang Jinxiu was happy to have some free time.
However, Jiang Jinxiu did not actually have any free time.
Seeing Gu Xichen busy at work, she couldn't help but go and help him out.
Men and women working together makes the work less tiring.
One person was in charge of preparing the fish, while the other washed the dishes. Jiang Jinxiu also wiped the sweat from Gu Xichen's forehead from time to time.
The two chatted happily, their conversation filled with harmony and warmth.
Yang Dongmei was very pleased to see how the two got along.
Seeing that Gu Dashan had returned from outside, she immediately pulled him out again: "Come on, old man, come with me for a walk in the vegetable garden."
"I... I still have something I haven't put in yet."
"What are you putting here? Put it here when you get back." Yang Dongmei looked at the small bag in his hand, ignoring him.
The third son and his wife were enjoying their honeymoon, and she wouldn't allow him to disturb them.
Let them spend more time together and develop a relationship. The better their relationship is, the sooner her grandchildren will come, right?
Yang Dongmei didn't want to disturb Jiang Jinxiu and the others, but she forgot that Gu Xilan was also there.
Gu Xilan rushed to the village chief's house to exchange for tofu, but the village chief wasn't home. Just then, Aunt Pang came home.
The plump aunt packed the tofu for her, and she dropped it and ran away.
When Gu Xichen got home, the fish had just been prepared.
While watching her third brother cook, the little girl chattered away gossiping, "Third sister-in-law, I heard that Jiang Jinhua was gored by a cow today and chased all over the mountain by it. Is that true?"
Jiang Jinxiu looked at her somewhat gloating expression and, recalling Jiang Jinhua's behavior today, couldn't help but laugh. She tapped her forehead and said, "You, you're quite well-informed."
"That's right, don't you even know who I am?"
As she spoke, she patted her chest.
Doesn't this girl know that recently, a certain part of her body has been developing better and better?
When she patted it now, you could see the waves surging.
Perhaps it's because the food has been better lately, but she's noticed that Gu Xilan is becoming more and more adorable.
Even the rest of the Gu family looked much better.
Luckily, Orange didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise she would probably say she was stupid again.
It was clearly her who occasionally mixed the spiritual spring water for them.
If one's body doesn't change after being cleansed by the spiritual spring water, wouldn't all that effort have been wasted?
Jiang Jinxiu quickly took her hand away.
"Xiao Lan, you're not a child anymore. Mind your image, mind your image."
Gu Xilan then realized what her third sister-in-law meant, and her face instantly turned red.
"Third sister-in-law, I'm not talking to you anymore."
She ran out of the kitchen, her face flushed, only to bump into Jiang Jinhua, who had just entered.
Jiang Jinhua stumbled from the impact and instinctively hugged Gu Xilan.
Jiang Jinxiu came out when she heard the noise and saw the two people hugging each other.
