After an afternoon of hard work, Yao Chunhua and her construction team had completed the demolition of the Hua family's old house.
Hua Qingcheng hired Yao Dayong to cook for the construction team during the construction period, making lunch and dinner twice a day. Around 6:55 pm, after lunch, Yao Chunhua and the construction team went home.
Meanwhile, in the east of the village, at the home of Hua's mother and father, things were bustling with activity. Hua's mother and father, along with Hua Qingcheng and her three husbands, Mulanjin, and Zuo An, were all sitting around the large table in the main hall, eating.
"Mr. Mu, please eat more. It's all at home, so don't be polite."
After Hua's father used the serving chopsticks to pick up a chicken leg for Mulanjin, he also picked up several pieces of chicken for Hua Rongsheng.
"Come on, Li Ge, you have a double body now, you need to eat more to replenish your body!"
Ye Maochun used a serving chopstick to fill Mu Lige's bowl with vegetables, stopping only when the food was full. Then he put a chicken leg into his bowl.
"Thank you, Dad!"
Although it was just a farm dish, Mu Lige felt warm in his heart.
"Sanlang, Xiaotian, you are so thin, you should eat more!"
After Ye Maochun added more dishes to Mu Lige's bowls, he also put a lot of chicken into Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian's bowls.
"Mr. Zuo, you should eat more too!"
Zuo An saw several more pieces of chicken in his bowl, glanced at Hua's father, was slightly startled, and then began to eat. This was the second time someone had added more food to his bowl, the first time being that woman.
"Dad, what about me?"
Hua Qingcheng couldn't help curling her lips when she saw that everyone had a share except herself. Her father was the best father-in-law ever!
"Uh... there's still one chicken butt left..."
Ye Maochun seemed to have really forgotten his daughter.
Hua Qingcheng: ...
"Dad, you're too thin. You should eat more to replenish your body..."
Before Hua's father could even start eating, Hua Qingcheng had already quickly picked up the last piece of chicken butt on the plate and put it into the bowl in front of him.
That night, Zuo An and Mu Lanjin were arranged to rest in the east wing, next to Hua Mu and Hua Fu's room. Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige stayed in the west wing near the front yard, while Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian stayed in the room next to them.
In the west wing, Mu Lige was mending clothes by candlelight. Hua Qingcheng stood behind him, slightly bent her body, put her arms around his neck, and rested her head lightly on his shoulder.
"Brother Li, Sanlang and Xiaotian will be moving into the shop in Yunshui Town tomorrow. You can stay here with Dad first, and I'll pick you up in a couple of days. Don't worry, I'll be back to be with you in the evenings after I finish my work during the day."
The reconstruction of the Hua family's old house will begin tomorrow. In the first few days, Hua Qingcheng will have to supervise the construction to ensure that they are building it according to their own design. If they have any questions, they also need to communicate with her in a timely manner.
"Qingqing, I'm fine. Go ahead and do your thing. I can take care of myself."
Mu Lige put down the needle and thread in her hand, pushed away Hua Qingcheng's hand on her shoulder, stood up, turned around and hugged her in her arms.
Ever since she became pregnant, his young wife always treated him as if he couldn't take care of himself, which made him feel helpless, yet...sweet.
"Okay. Brother Li, it's getting late now, go to bed early. Don't do needlework at night in the future, it hurts your eyes."
"good."
After helping Mu Lige put away the clothes and needlework on the table, Hua Qingcheng took Mu Lige's hand and went to bed to rest.
The next day, Hua Qingcheng got up early. After dinner, she harnessed Xiangyun Horse to the carriage and took Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian to the shop in Yunshui Town.
"Qingcheng, you are here."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Jiro."
Seeing Hua Qingcheng driving the carriage to the door of the store, Situ Ye hurried out of the store and helped Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian take the luggage to the room in the backyard and put it away.
"Erlang, Sanlang, Xiaotian, our family has started building a new house from today. I might be a little busy in the next two days. I will bring Li Ge over in a couple of days, and we will all live here together for a while."
"It's okay, we're here. Qingcheng, just go and do your thing."
Situ Ye walked forward and hugged Hua Qingcheng. For some reason, he felt a little nervous. After hugging her, he felt a lot more at ease.
"Erlang, I'll have to trouble you to look after the shop."
"good."
When Hua Qingcheng was about to let go of Situ Ye, he pulled her back and then leaned over to place a passionate kiss on her lips. Hua Qingcheng hugged him back until the kiss ended.
Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian silently turned their heads to the side...
"I'm going back. Sanlang, Xiaotian, you two should listen to Erlang's words. I will be back to accompany you in two days."
After Hua Qingcheng kissed Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian on the cheek, she turned and left the backyard.
Yu Xiaotian touched his still-warm face, his cheeks flushed slightly. Han Yichen pouted proudly. How could such a superficial gesture be enough? He would definitely make Hua Qingcheng pay him back double someday...
When Hua Qingcheng got on the carriage in front of the store, Situ Ye, Han Yichen and Yu Xiaotian also came out to see her off.
With her three husbands reluctantly seeing her off, Hua Qingcheng drove her carriage back to Huaqiao Village. When Hua Qingcheng returned to the Hua family's old house, Yao Chunhua and the others were already laying the foundation.
After Hua Qingcheng returned, Situ Ye began to busy himself with the shop's work. Now that the shop was fully staffed, Han Yichen returned to the backyard to study medical books and tend to the herbs, while Yu Xiaotian was busy tidying up and cleaning.
In the evening, Yu Xiaotian prepared the meal and planned to sort out the embroidery thread before dinner, but found that the red embroidery thread was used up.
"Third brother, I'm going out to buy some embroidery thread."
