Cheng pretended to be serious, but ended up throwing all the blame on her own child.
Those who didn't know the details thought they had misheard. It turned out it wasn't the Cheng family that was dishonest, but rather the children in the family.
This little grass is really something, so young and already learning bad habits.
The neighbor, Er Mao's mother, was very worried. "Oh, Cheng Shi, you're always so busy you never come home. You can't even raise Xiao Cao properly."
That child often plays with her son, Er Mao. Won't he lead Er Mao astray in the future?
Er Mao's mother's mind was racing, thinking that she should keep Er Mao away from Zhao Xiaocao from now on!
Aside from the messy affairs of Old Zhao's family, the only other interesting thing in the village was Song, the second daughter-in-law of Liu's family.
She arrived at Changfeng Village with her big pregnant belly and entered Liu's house.
You have no idea what Liu's face looked like at that time; it was as colorful as a rainbow.
No sooner had the vixen-like eldest daughter-in-law left than the second daughter-in-law from Rouge Lane arrived.
If outsiders only look at the surface, how fortunate Liu must be in this era when it's so hard to find a wife! Both of her sons have gotten married.
But only Liu knew the bitterness in her heart; she looked down on Song, who had sold herself into servitude.
Although her family didn't spend a single penny to marry him.
There's a reason why things are cheap; these are goods that have changed hands countless times.
Although Zhao Ergou brought Song Shi home that day, he didn't show her much care. At best, their relationship was lukewarm, a peaceful coexistence.
Song didn't care about these things; she just wanted to wait until she gave birth to a son. Her son was the most important thing to her.
There wasn't much housework to do; Song's daily routine consisted of sweeping the floor and cooking.
Although Liu looked down on her daughter-in-law, she didn't deliberately make things difficult for her. The two seemed to be about the same age, with Liu being only five or six years older than Song, and thus becoming her mother-in-law.
This left Liu with mixed feelings; whenever she saw her daughter-in-law, she felt as if she were her own sister.
He Tiantian has been going to the chicken coop down the mountain more often these past few days, while Zhao Tingzhang has been watching the villagers work from morning till night every day.
At this time, there is no farm work, and even if the wages are low, there are still many people willing to do it.
He Tiantian inspected each chicken coop. The inside of the coop was muddy; she would just roll a large stone over it to level the ground.
Moreover, the chicken manure produced every day can be transported to the fields, which is the best farmyard manure.
As He Tiantian walked further ahead, she saw a familiar figure.
It was Sister-in-law Wang, carrying two mud bricks. She greeted He Tiantian warmly when she saw her.
"Wanzi's mom, I heard that you built this chicken farm, is that right?"
He Tiantian smiled awkwardly and explained, "No, no, no, there were also the eldest brother and sister-in-law from the village with Zhao's family."
"Elder brother and sister-in-law?" Sister-in-law Wang almost didn't react for a moment. After thinking it over carefully, she remembered that it was Zhao Xiangbei and Tao Shi.
Wow, looking at it this way, this girl with the dumpling-shaped hair ornament is really kind-hearted.
"Hehe, I'd like to join in too. But I don't have the money to invest."
Sister-in-law Wang had a feeling that this chicken farm must be very profitable, so a few days ago she went to find Director Zhao to inquire about it privately.
Zhao Tingzhang said that would require an investment, at least ten taels of silver!
Good heavens, if she had ten taels of silver in savings, would she need to invest to make money? That would be enough for her to live comfortably for a lifetime.
"That's alright. Once the chicken farm is established, so many chickens will definitely need someone to feed and clean them. We'll definitely need to hire people to do the work then."
Sister-in-law Wang's eyes lit up as if she had seen a glimmer of hope.
"Really? Then...where do I sign up?" She was determined to seize this opportunity and find herself a job that would earn her money.
"For specifics, ask the village head; he's in charge of this."
Sister-in-law Wang happily went to find Director Zhao, afraid that someone else would snatch the job first.
After returning from the chicken farm, He Tiantian went to Sister Yulan's house again.
Although Brother Liu is recovering well, he is still unable to work in the mine due to his injury.
Sister-in-law Yulan has to take care of both her husband and her children; she must be very busy all by herself.
He Tiantian wanted to see if there was anything she could do to help, otherwise she would be returning to the city in a few days.
She plans to stay until the end of the year before returning.
As the year draws to a close, restaurant business tends to pick up. With a little effort, they can earn some extra money to buy new clothes for the children.
When I arrived at Sister Yulan's house, I could hear a commotion inside even before I entered.
The courtyard gate was ajar, and He Tiantian and Hong Erniang exchanged a glance. She pushed the gate open and went inside.
Two strangers she didn't recognize were standing in the courtyard. Sister-in-law Yulan stood between them, looking quite troubled.
He Tiantian was puzzled. Who were these two people? After thinking about it, she realized that Sister Yulan didn't seem to have any relatives here.
When Sister-in-law Yulan saw He Tiantian arrive, she forced a smile onto her stiff face.
"Someone from my family has come. Why don't you go back first today?" She said this to the two people next to Sister Yulan.
The two women exchanged glances, and one of them, wearing a blue jacket, said, "Sister-in-law, my husband and I have come all this way today, so why don't you give me an answer?"
"Yes, if you don't give us an answer today, how are we supposed to explain this back home?" another woman in a black jacket pressed on.
