"Dayun, what brings you back today?"
Then she saw Jingming holding a child beside her. "What? Where did this child come from?"
After getting off the boat, Zhao Fang hurriedly pulled over the village's most gossipy person. These people's mouths were sharper than swords; they could turn white into black. If this matter wasn't explained clearly, who knows how many rumors would circulate later.
“My father-in-law had a daughter a few days ago. He heard some nonsense that the child was taking the name of a boy, which would prevent the Qin family from having a son. My daughter-in-law is a good person. She couldn’t bear to see her sister being sold off and beaten to death, so she took her back. We’ve been raising her ever since, and the other person is the child’s wet nurse.”

Wang Lan's legs are now able to walk normally. As she saw Dr. Li off, she smiled broadly, "God has eyes! I never thought my Dayun would be so lucky to marry such a good wife."
Qin Xiaozhou and Lu Yunfeng went to the back mountain and carefully inspected all the chickens, ducks, and geese. They also carefully calculated the number of rabbits behind the house. It was time to open a barbecue restaurant to consume these livestock, otherwise the chickens, ducks, and rabbits would become an epidemic.
Wang Dahe knows these things better than anyone. "A batch of these roosters has been crowing for over a month now. They're at their best when they're not too old or too young."
