Huang Lijuan's parents' home is in Huangjia Village, Tongren Town, which is isolated. She met Yang Zhongyi once in Anren County. At that time, several hooligans were molesting her, and they were seen by Yang Zhongyi and Old Man Yang. The two stepped forward to drive away the hooligans and helped her find her parents. At that time, Huang Lijuan was only thirteen years old and Yang Zhongyi was only fifteen years old.
Fate is a wonderful thing. You can't escape it even if you want to. The two met again a month later. This time, Huang Lijuan was teased again, but it was not by a gangster, but by a scoundrel from her village.
Yang Zhongyi and Old Man Yang had no choice but to personally send Huang Lijuan back to Huangjia Village. After Huang Lijuan's parents learned about the situation, they were very grateful to Yang Zhongyi and his son. They also liked Yang Zhongyi's honest and kind appearance. They told Old Man Yang that they wanted to marry their daughter to Yang Zhongyi. Old Man Yang immediately agreed and he also liked this daughter-in-law.
Thus, the marriage between Huang Lijuan and Yang Zhongyi was decided without even asking whether either party was willing or not. When Huang Lijuan was seventeen years old, Yang Zhongyi married her.
The carriage drove into Tongren Town. At this time, many people in the town were already buying and selling things. Huang's Inn and Huang's Grocery Store were also open. Yang Zhongyi first took his wife and daughter to Huang Lijuan's eldest brother's Huang's Grocery Store. At this time, there were only a few customers picking out some household items.
"Master, Madam, do you want to buy those things?" The waiter saw Yang Zhongyi coming in with his wife and daughter, and knew that they were important customers, so he came forward to greet them enthusiastically.
"Waiter, is your boss here?" Huang Lijuan saw that the waiter didn't recognize her and thought that he must be a new waiter, so she asked the waiter if her boss was here.
"The boss is in the backyard. If the lady doesn't need much, I can pack it for her," the waiter said. The boss was checking the account books in the backyard. If it wasn't something particularly difficult, don't bother him. The waiter thought the lady and the master didn't need much, so he didn't want to bother the boss.
"The waiter misunderstood. I'm not here to buy anything. I have something to discuss with your boss. You can go find him and tell him that Yang Zhongyi and Huang Lijuan are here, and he will come out." Huang Lijuan said to the waiter.
"Okay, Master and Madam, please wait a moment." The waiter knew that they were looking for the boss, so he could only go to the backyard to look for the boss.
Yang Youxue looked around the shop, but there were so few items that she couldn't make much money. When she got back, she planned to draw some toys from her past life and have her uncle make them. She would then sell them in the shop. She would also teach her uncle how to make some snacks to sell there, too. That was the only way to make some money.
Huang Fuhai, who was being thought about by Yang Youxue, was looking at yesterday's account book with a frown on his face. Yesterday's business was really bad, and he only made ten taels of silver. If this continued, he didn't know whether he could continue to operate.
This small shop was run by my brother-in-law who taught me how to run it, and the inn was also run by my brother-in-law who taught me how to run it. The Huang family members always remember the great kindness of my brother-in-law, but they are not good at business, and they have run the small shop and the inn in a mess, and they are getting worse day by day.
"Boss?" The waiter came to the accounting office in the backyard and called out to the boss.
"What's the matter?" Huang Fuhai was thinking about his sister and brother-in-law when he was interrupted by the waiter. He said impatiently.
"A master and his wife came to the store. The lady said that Yang Zhongyi and Huang Lijuan are here." The waiter told the boss what Huang Lijuan said.
"What? My sister and brother-in-law are here, so I'll go out." Huang Fuhai was very happy when he just thought of his sister and brother-in-law and they came over.
Huang Fuhai hurriedly opened the door, locked it, and headed for the front yard. The waiter was left bewildered. What had the owner just said? "Brother-in-law, sister?" Could that lady outside be the aunt? The waiter hurriedly followed the owner to the front yard.
"Sister, brother-in-law, are you here?" Huang Fuhai arrived before he even showed up.
"Brother, I'm back to see you." Huang Lijuan heard Huang Fuhai's voice and answered happily.
Huang Fuhai came to Huang Lijuan and was about to hug her like a brother, but Yang Zhongyi blocked his way and the hug failed, leaving Huang Fuhai confused.
"Brother-in-law, what are you doing? Can't I hug my own sister?" Huang Fuhai said angrily. This brother-in-law is not lovable. He hasn't seen his sister for such a long time, but he didn't even give her a hug.
"Brother-in-law, you misunderstood. It's just that my wife is pregnant and can't be touched casually." Yang Zhongyi hurriedly explained. He didn't want his brother-in-law to hold a grudge against him.
"Really? My sister is pregnant again, so I really can't mess with her. Luckily, my brother-in-law stopped me, otherwise, a rough guy like me would have definitely hurt her," Huang Fuhai said happily. He was happy for his sister, hoping it would be a boy. His family was worried about her. Although his in-laws were kind and didn't despise his sister for not having a son, and his brother-in-law didn't despise her either, they all knew that in rural areas, the most important thing for the poor was a son to carry on the family line. If there was no son, even the best relationship would eventually break down.
Now his sister is pregnant again, and he hopes it will be a boy this time so that his sister can gain a firm foothold in the Yang family.
