"Please excuse my poor sister-in-law, I only figured it out after I'd run into a lot of bumps and bruises."
Sister-in-law Jiang didn't say anything more; she herself had almost been abandoned. Her family was dissatisfied with her and wanted her to provide financial support. Given her own family's situation, what could she possibly contribute?
Jiang Qi wanted to talk to her third grandfather, so she didn't wait for her eldest brother to finish class and asked her sister-in-law to pass on the message.
“Okay, I’ll tell your older brother when he gets back tonight. Let him know when you’re moving, and your brother and I will come to see you off.”
"Understood, sister-in-law. I'll have someone send you a message once the date is set."
Jiang Qi got into the carriage and went to her third grandfather's house.
"Jiang Qi is leaving without eating lunch?"
The woman who helped with the work in the village was quite puzzled when she saw Jiang Qi leave, wondering why she hadn't eaten breakfast.
"Jiang Qi went to talk to her third grandfather. She had young children at home and a lot of things to do, so she didn't have time to stay for a meal."
Sister-in-law Jiang didn't say much and went to the kitchen to help clean up, as she still had to deliver meals to the school later.
Jiang Qi arrived at her third grandfather's house and carried her things into the courtyard.
"Why did Qi come here?"
"Greetings, Third Grandfather and Third Grandmother. A letter came from the prefectural city; my husband's master wants us to return. I came to tell you, Third Grandfather."
"That's a good thing. The prefectural city is bigger than the county town, and with your master and mistress here, you'll have someone to look after you if anything happens. When are you going to set off? Is that decided yet?"
Third Grandfather never expected that Jiang Qi would not only meet a good man after her marriage, but also have her life become more and more prosperous.
"Not yet. My husband still has a few patients whose follow-up treatments need to be completed."
By the way, my second sister-in-law is pregnant with twins. My husband's master checked her condition, and everything is fine.
Jiang Qi quickly shared the good news, knowing that her third grandfather cared a lot about her second brother's family.
"Really, that's wonderful! This is truly joyous news. Shuyun and her husband are excellent at raising children; many children bring many blessings!"
Third Grandfather thought that after the autumn harvest, he and his eldest brother would also go to the prefectural city to see the sights while they were still in good health.
Also, check on the people working outside to see if they've caused any trouble for Shuyun and her husband.
Jiang Qi was unaware of her third grandfather's plans. After discussing some matters, and noticing that it was getting late, she bid farewell and left, worried about the children at home.
After thinking about it, Third Grandfather went to his eldest brother's house to discuss the matter of going to the prefectural city in a while.
