On the afternoon of the next day, Gu Dazhu and Jiang Huigu returned to Gujiagang with the farewell of the men of the Jiang family.

As soon as they returned to their home, Gu Dazhu took the initiative to bring Jiang Huigu to find Chen Xuanxuan and talk to her.

"Mom, have you eaten?"

Chen Xuanxuan saw it and said with a smile, "I have. I just woke up."

I don't know what happened.

Chen Xuanxuan felt that she always wanted to sleep during the day and couldn't muster up energy in recent times. But at night, she lay in bed and couldn't fall asleep. She always had all kinds of thoughts in her mind. Sometimes she thought about the delicious food she had eaten...

After too many days of day and night reversal, her mood was particularly bad.

She suspected that she had insomnia.

However, she still didn't understand why she had insomnia.

She just hoped that she could sleep well at night and stop thinking about those messy things. Those things were useless...

When Chen Xuanxuan was distracted, Gu Dazhu said again, "Mom, did Dad and my second brother go out to do business?"

Chen Xuanxuan thought about it seriously and shook her head gently. "That's not the case."

"Your father borrowed your grandmother's donkey cart yesterday and delivered hundreds of buns to Yan's Restaurant. Today, he was thinking about other things, so he didn't go there."

After saying this, Chen Xuanxuan took the initiative to ask, "Dazhu, how do you feel about going back to her parents' home with your wife?"

"Hey, your second brother's wife, the Ma family, is busy making a living. When he went there, the Ma family's house was closed tightly. No one was inside. After he couldn't leave to return the gift, he packed up and came back. He was also very angry, so he didn't go to the Jiang family to pick you up..."

Chen Xuanxuan didn't want to say these things to her second son, but before dawn this morning, her father-in-law knocked on her door and kept nagging. As a mother, she couldn't just care about her own life and death. She also has to take care of the old and young masters in the family.

When Chen Xuanxuan heard this, she was thinking in her heart that usually, if she talked a few more words to Gu Yanzhang and acted a little happier, her father-in-law would say that she was a shrew. He said that Gu Yanzhang was a coward who would not beat his wife.

Chen Xuanxuan had argued with him before, but the other party's train of thought was somehow wrong. He insisted that she was not a good woman.

Now, he actually had the nerve to tell her that she should take care of the masters in the family...

Thinking of this, Chen Xuanxuan smiled and said, "Dazhu, go find your father quickly! Your father has gone to feed the pigs."

"..."

Gu Dazhu hummed and left. As for Jiang Huigu, she hesitated for a moment, then quietly went back to her room and took a nap.

She didn't sleep all night last night because her mother and sisters-in-law always asked questions. They tried hard to find out whether the Gu family was really rich. Whether the Gu family really lived a particularly good life.

Jiang Huigu tossed and turned in bed, thinking to herself that after marrying into the Gu family, everything she could eat and use would be good. It's a pity that she is not the head of the family.

If her mother-in-law was gone, as the daughter-in-law of the eldest son and grandson, she could manage the kitchen and control what the family eats every day as soon as she married into the Gu family. In addition, her father-in-law might even give her a portion of the money he earned.

If she had the power to manage the household, she would definitely secretly help her brothers from her mother's side.

She had too many brothers. Whether they were biological or cousins, they were all that old. However, some of them still couldn't find wives.

Jiang Huigu was a very responsible person, thinking that no matter what, she had to help those brothers find wives in her life, so that they could all have a son to take care of them in their old age... After her mood went up and down, she quickly got up from the bed. Then, she quietly moved to the door and began to look at Chen Xuanxuan through the gap in the door.

At this time, Chen Xuanxuan was planting vegetables with the children.

Loosening the soil, cultivating seedlings, weeding, ... she and her children worked seriously.

However, while doing these tasks, she looked around.

There was no wall at home, and she always felt unsafe. If the wolves, wild boars, tigers and bears from the mountains came running over aggressively, she and her children would run into the house quickly.

After planting the seedlings that she bought on the Qiongheihei app in the soil, Chen Xuanxuan packed up her things and asked the children to go back to the house quickly.

After returning to the house, Chen Xuanxuan asked them to cook. Recently, she always felt that she couldn't sleep well during the day. So, she didn't cook breakfast for the past one or two days.

Chen Xuanxuan washed her face and hands, and went back to lie down.

...

Time flies. In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.

It is now the end of September in the lunar calendar.

Autumn is almost over. In

order to make more income for the family, before dawn that morning, Gu Yanzhang brought his father, eldest son and youngest son... and also called his eldest brother-in-law and younger brother-in-law, and the six of them went to find Wang the butcher in the county town.

Butcher Wang's skill in slaughtering pigs is really top-notch. Wang Tongfu's grandfather and father were both pig slaughterers. By his generation, his family had slaughtered more than ten thousand pigs.

Because of his heavy sin of killing, even if his family had a fortune of ten thousand and married three or four wives, his wives just couldn't give birth to a son with a penis.

Now, there are only two young ladies in his family who are not very strong. The elder one is already 30 years old. She has already found a son-in-law for him.

The younger one is still at home.

She is only 19 this year.

Now the Gu family came in person and asked him to kill pigs, and he had to kill eight fat pigs. Butcher Wang immediately remembered Gu Yanzhang.

He raised 12 pigs in one breath, and now he was asked to kill eight... This shows that the Gu family has real skills and is quite rich.

After suddenly thinking of his little daughter, Butcher Wang said with a smile, "Okay, I'll go with you now."

The marriage of his young lady has always been a difficult problem.

Now the Gu family was financially sound, and if the people in his family were decent and had an unmarried son, he would find a matchmaker.

...

After Gu Yanzhang brought Wang the butcher with him, he found the cobbler in Tongzhen.

A cobbler is a professional skinner.

This business is often passed down from generation to generation.

They have great skills.

Pigskin, sheepskin, cowhide, camel skin, wolf skin... no matter what kind of skin it is, in their hands, it can be turned into a satisfactory fur coat.
