Chapter 15 Mother Yuan's Relief



Yuan Shitou was stunned by Yun Xiaoxiao's antics and opened his mouth to explain.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Yun Xiaoxiao stuffed the egg into it.

Seeing him standing there dumbfounded, she smiled slyly.

Mr. and Mrs. Yuan witnessed all of this and felt immensely gratified.

Yuan's mother wiped her eyes and sighed, "Xiaoxiao is such a caring child."

Mr. Yuan nodded, urging him to hurry up, otherwise it would be too late to make a decision.

Yuan Shitou and his father took care of the wild boar, while Yun Xiaoxiao and her mother prepared the pheasants.

The rabbit needed to be skinned, but Yun Xiaoxiao was afraid she wouldn't do it well, so she didn't dare to start.

By the time everything was tidied up, it was already dark.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Yuan Shitou delivered some wild boar meat to several of his close friends.

When delivering the goods to Fan Tieniu's family, he simply had his own mother deliver them.

Fan Xiaohua was fuming inside the house.

She waited until dark on the road that Yuan Shitou and his group always took, but no one came.

A fire was rising in my heart.

But her little nephew kept crying and fussing.

She was already in a bad mood, and then she exploded.

She has two older brothers. Her eldest brother, Fan Tiechui, moved next door after getting married.

Fan Tieniu lived at home and had a third son named Fan Tiesheng, who was not yet married.

Because Fan Tieniu used Fan Xiaohua's betrothal gifts when he got married, he was quite tolerant of her.

My one-and-a-half-year-old son has had a bit of a cold these past two days, so he's been quite fussy.

Not to mention the couple, even his parents are quite anxious.

The child is still young and can only say simple words.

She couldn't explain where she felt uncomfortable; all she did was cry and fuss.

As a result, Fan Xiaohua kept getting angry, which angered Fan Tieniu's wife, Zhang Xing.

You're someone who was kicked back by your husband's family, and you not only eat and drink for free all day without doing anything, but you also do some shameful things.

What right do they have to cause trouble at home?

Although they used her betrothal gifts to get married.

But isn't that how everyone goes through this?

Must we tolerate this for the rest of our lives just because of this?

Besides, it's normal for a child to cry when they're not feeling well.

I always take my anger out on the child, which scares the child so much that they're trembling.

If she, as a mother, can tolerate this, then she doesn't deserve to be a mother.

So Zhang Xing, who already had a fiery temper, retorted.

The two women, aunt and sister-in-law, started arguing.

This attracted the attention of the Fan couple next door.

My sister-in-law, Wang Yueyue, is a very innocent person; she always wears her heart on her sleeve, whether she's happy or not.

She's also a very straightforward person who says what she thinks.

After learning the reason, they also said that Fan Xiaohua was wrong.

The child is so young and sick, it's perfectly normal for him to cry.

If you can't stand it, just stay away from it.

Why are you yelling at the child? Look how scared you've made him!

When Fan Xiaohua saw that her sister-in-law was helping her second sister-in-law to talk to her, she immediately started making a scene, threatening to kill herself.

She said her family couldn't tolerate her, and she'd be better off dead.

He even banged his head against the wall, attempting suicide.

Apart from her two sisters-in-law, everyone else went to persuade her.

As a result, Fan Xiaohua became arrogant when she saw her parents and brothers doting on her.

She insisted that her two sisters-in-law apologize to her.

The two older brothers, the eldest and the second eldest, fell silent.

Her two sisters-in-law even looked at her like she was an idiot.

When Fan Xiaohua realized she hadn't achieved her goal, she threw a tantrum on the ground, making a huge scene.

When Yuan's mother arrived, she saw Fan Xiaohua still lying on the ground making a scene.

She stared, her eyes wide with amazement.

I was secretly relieved: thank goodness I have Xiaoxiao.

Otherwise, if we really marry Xiaohua, how will we live together?

Fan Xiaohua was rolling around crying when suddenly Yuan's mother came in.

She was taken aback at first, then quickly got up, straightened her clothes, and went inside.

She was incredibly fast, as if she wasn't the one rolling around on the ground just now.

Feeling a little embarrassed, Yuan's mother handed the wild boar meat to Fan Tieniu's mother and left, making an excuse that she had to visit other people's homes.

Yuan Shitou was waiting for her not far away. When he saw her running out in a hurry, he rushed to greet her.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Why are you walking so fast?

As she walked quickly, Yuan's mother said, "Let's go home quickly and talk about it when we get back."

After returning home, Yuan's mother recounted everything she had seen.

He kept saying, "Luckily she didn't marry into our family, it's truly a blessing from our ancestors."

Yun Xiaoxiao twitched her lips and thought: Is it really that exaggerated?

However, that woman was definitely not someone to be trifled with.

It seems I'll have to stay even further away from her in the future.

The family worked together to salt all the meat before going back inside to rest.

The next day, everyone overslept.

If Gou Dan hadn't woken up, climbed off the bed, and fallen, they would still be asleep.

Gou Dan is over a year old, and all he can do is say "Mama".

When she has free time, Yun Xiaoxiao will teach him to speak and also teach him to recite the Three Character Classic.

Yes, memorize the Three Character Classic.

Yun Xiaoxiao felt that this place was deep in the mountains and forests, and had no connection with the outside world.

Everything in life still leans towards ancient times, even the way people address each other is mixed with the terms used by people from ancient times.

It's not a big deal that she asked Jiaodan to read the Three Character Classic.

Last night, we used up all the salt at home while curing meat, and Yun Xiaoxiao is still worried about where to buy more.

Unexpectedly, after breakfast, Yuan Shitou said he was going to go to the mountains to collect salt.

Yun Xiaoxiao was curious about where they were going to collect salt.

So they went along, and were very excited, asking if there was a sea there.

Yuan Shitou scratched his head, puzzled by her question; he had never seen the sea.

I have no idea how the ocean can produce salt.

All he knew was that there were trees in the mountains that could be used to make salt.

It's not the season to pick those trees now.

So today he's going to a place that's a bit far, to collect things on a cliff.

After Yun Xiaoxiao's repeated pleas and threats, Yuan Shitou finally agreed to let her go with him.

Because of the hot weather, cooked food was difficult to store, so Yuan's mother only prepared food for them for two days.

With a basket brimming with goods on his back and Yun Xiaoxiao in his hand, Yuan Shitou set off after repeated instructions from his parents.

Yun Xiaoxiao was curious about what Yuan Shitou was carrying in his basket.

But since everything is already packed, it's not convenient to open it and look inside.

They asked Yuan Shitou, who said those were all needed for salt mining.

So Yun Xiaoxiao didn't ask any more questions.

She also carried a small basket on her back, which was empty; nothing was inside.

Let Yuan Shitou carry some for her to carry, so that everyone can have an easier time.

Yuan Shitou disagreed with everything he said.

She also said that if she got tired, she could tell him and he would carry her.

Yun Xiaoxiao wanted to say, "You really are a savage bear."

The two traversed the mountains and forests, following a path that Yun Xiaoxiao had never taken before.

Yun Xiaoxiao was being held tightly by Yuan Shitou, and she felt like an archaeological team going into the mountains.

She asked Yuan Shitou, "Brother Shitou, is it impossible to buy anything outside?"

What if the things we need aren't available in the mountains?

Yuan Shitou said with certainty, "There's everything in the mountains, unless you're lazy and don't want to look for it."

Yun Xiaoxiao said somewhat sullenly, "You're lying. For example, the rouge and face powder outside are not available in the mountains."

Yuan Shitou chuckled softly: "If Xiaoxiao likes those things, I'll have her mother make them for you once I've found the ingredients."

Yun Xiaoxiao asked in surprise, "Mother can make rouge and face powder?"

Yuan Shitou nodded: "It tastes even better than what you buy outside."
