Forget it, I won't stoop to her level.
I was busy all afternoon, and it was finally tidied up. At least now it looks like a home.
No one else can help with these things, and no one knows how to put the things away.
Li Qiuniang's mother and sister-in-law wanted to come and help, but she refused. These were all common household items; she could tidy them up herself and know where to find them when needed.
"Alright, Qiu Niang, that's enough for now. We'll take it slow and gradually work things out. You should rest for a bit too. I'm going to the noodle shop nearby to buy some noodles. We won't be cooking dinner tonight."
Jiang Shuwen felt sorry for his wife, who was covered in sweat from exhaustion.
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll wash up, I'm all dirty."
Li Qiuniang wasn't very good at cooking to begin with, and after a busy afternoon, she was truly exhausted.
That evening, I discussed with Shuwen how much silver we had left. If not, we could buy a cook to help out at the shop.
She's okay at physical labor, but she can't offer much help when it comes to cooking.
She has two children at home to take care of. This isn't Jiangjia Village where children can run around and play freely. There are prostitutes in the county town; although no one she knows has encountered them, such rumors have always circulated, so she has to be careful.
Jiang Shuwen returned with food, and Li Qiuniang told the two children to wash their hands and eat.
"Mother, when are we going to find Brother Shao Yun?"
"elder sister."
The two children wanted to play with their older brother and sister, as they had played together well a few days ago.
"Once Mother has packed up, she will take you there."
Li Qiuniang thought that this place was alright, not too far from her second sister-in-law's house.
"Brother Shao Yun practices martial arts, fights bad guys, and becomes a great general. I want to practice martial arts too, and follow Brother Shao Yun to fight bad guys."
Shao Kun liked to follow Shao Yun and obey his older brother's commands.
Li Qiuniang herself also knew some martial arts, although it was only a rudimentary skill, but she was still much stronger than the average woman.
If all else fails, she'll swallow her pride and talk to her second sister-in-law to ask Shao Kun to coach alongside Shao Yun.
In Li Qiuniang's mind, everything her second sister-in-law did was justified and never wrong.
A family sitting together for a pleasant dinner—that's what makes a home.
It's so nice to have the whole family together, chatting and laughing!
