Relatives come and go

After breakfast, Yang Ruoqing came to her parents' house next door with a bundle of clothes in her arms.

Yang Huazhong and Sun were counting gifts at the table. When they saw Yang Ruoqing come in, Sun originally just turned her head and smiled and planned to continue counting. Suddenly, she turned around again and her eyes stayed on Yang Ruoqing's face.

"Qing'er, why don't you look good? Is there something unhappy about you?"

Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, then touched her belly.

Not to mention, the day is approaching and I do feel a little uncomfortable.

When Mrs. Sun saw her little action, she understood immediately, so she put down her work and turned around to make a bowl of brown sugar water for her, adding a few red dates and wolfberry longan to it and brought it over.

"Come on, drink this first, and then mother will make you some qi-boosting soup later that night."

Yang Ruoqing smiled obediently, held a tea bowl, found a stool and sat down.

Yang Huazhong said to Sun, "If we don't come back at noon, I'll go say hello to my mother and tell her not to panic. My five siblings will bring lunch at noon."

"Okay, go ahead. We'll leave as soon as you finish explaining. Qing'er is still drinking brown sugar water, so there's no rush." ​​Sun said.

Yang Huazhong turned to Yang Ruoqing with a gentle smile, turned around and strode out of the main room.

"Ah? You have prepared so many small clothes? A big bag!"

Mrs. Sun saw the bundle roll that Yang Ruoqing put on the stool, walked over and weighed it, and was amazed.

Yang Ruoqing smiled: "I've brought everything for washing and changing. It can last for a few days."

Mrs. Sun nodded repeatedly, "That will definitely work. Look at me, I brought food."

Yang Ruoqing also followed Sun's guidance and looked over. There were eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, red beans, peanuts, corn, and mung beans.

"Mom, did you see that Grandpa Jiaojiao was going to start a new business, so you sent him a bunch of daily necessities?"

"Haha, I do think so." Sun made no secret of her thoughts.

"For a long time, Grandpa Jiaojiao lived with Duo'er and the others in the grassland. Now that the Xiang family has a granddaughter, Grandpa Jiaojiao plans to move back to the old house to start a new life for the two of them, so we can give these things to him.

It comes in handy, let’s give some away, Duo’er and the others can’t give you some less!”

Yang Ruoqing understood. After all, Sun and Yang Huazhong still felt sorry for their daughter and son-in-law, and tried every means to share the pressure and reduce the burden for them.

When Yang Huazhong came back, Yang Ruoqing had also finished drinking the brown sugar water. She had eaten all the red dates and wolfberry longans in it, and her stomach felt warm, which made up for the loss caused by last night's nightmare.

It feels so good to have a mother. Even now that I am three years old, I can still hold my belly in front of my mother and enjoy her care like I did when I was a girl.

Yang Huazhong drove the carriage and put everything in the carriage. In addition, there was room for Yang Ruoqing and Sun's mother and daughter.

Walk all the way upstream along the river dam at the foot of the mountain behind the village. The direction of Xiangjiazhuang is above Changping Village. Pass the Taoist temple on the other side of "Yikeshu" and continue upstream. Turn off at the fork at the foot of the mountain.

After turning around and walking for half a mile, you can see the rather grand farmyard with blue tiles and white walls at the outermost edge of Zhuangzi.

That is the home of Xiaoduo and Shengnan, and the place where we are visiting today is not here, but the Xiang family's old house in Zhuangzi.

However, Xiang Shengnan was already waiting at the entrance of Zhuangzi. When he saw Yang Huazhong driving his carriage, he raised his hand and waved, then trotted over to greet him.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, sister."

After saying hello to Shun'er, Xiang Shengnan conveyed Xiao Duo's arrangement to Yang Huazhong: "Father-in-law, Duo'er asked me to wait here. She said she couldn't find a good parking place at the old house, so you can

Stop the carriage in my yard."

The guest followed the host as he pleased, and Yang Huazhong was naturally easy to talk to, so he put Sun and Yang Ruoqing down at the gate of the yard and drove into the yard himself.

After a while, the father-in-law and his wife came out, their hands full of gifts, which were all unloaded from the car.

Seeing this, Sun and Yang Ruoqing hurried over to help get some.

Xiang Shengnan accompanied him carefully and said: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, sister, there is no fire in our yard today. All relatives and friends are entertaining us at the old house. Duo'er asked me to pick you all up to have tea at the old house."

"It's easy to talk, let's go!" Yang Huazhong was very casual about this.

As she walked, Mrs. Sun couldn't help but ask Xiang Shengnan: "Besides us, what other relatives are here today?"

"To my mother-in-law, there are also my aunt's family, two uncles and two aunts."

Mrs. Sun nodded, not surprised at all by the arrival of these relatives.

My aunt is the sister of the cattle dealer and Xiang's brother. She usually visits New Year's greetings, trades and offers gifts, and moves around frequently.

Sun was not surprised when Shengnan's uncles and aunts came over.

Although Xiang's mother is gone, as a son, Sheng Nan cannot be lost to his uncle even if he is adopted by a cattle dealer.

This is a sign of respect for my late mother.

However, Katsuo's aunt has been replaced by a new person.

The previous aunt... killed Sheng Nanniang (hanging incident).

The two families went to court, and the original aunt was imprisoned and beheaded to pay for her life.

Because of that matter, Uncle Shengnan and his cousin were at odds with the Xiang family for a time. However, as time went by, Uncle Shengnan married a house-filler, and the house-filler had nothing to do with the Xiang family.

Due to the resentment and the fact that her nephew's daughter-in-law Xiaoduo's natal family background was unusual, the new aunt often flirted with Uncle Shengnan.

Men, haha, their ears are naturally shaped like that. The young and beautiful bride had a lot of wind blowing on her pillow, and her attitude gradually changed.

In addition, the incident was originally caused by his ex-wife who killed his sister. It was because he was sorry for the Xiang family and his nephew first.

Now that my sister is gone, as an uncle, I naturally have to take care of my nephew more.

As a result, the two families resumed contact, including today's adoption of an adopted daughter for the deceased Jin Nan and Cuier. The uncle and the others came over in person.

Sun Shi glanced at Yang Ruoqing, and the corners of Yang Ruoqing's mouth moved slightly. Sun Shi thought Yang Ruoqing was reminding someone else, but Sun Shi might have misunderstood.

Regarding this matter, Yang Ruoqing just wants to say: When you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you, but when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives.

Everything comes down to credit in the end, and there is no escape from the word ‘fame and fortune’.

"Katsuo, is there anyone coming from Sunjiagou?" asked Sun as she walked.

When asked about this, Xiang Shengnan's expression became a little strange.

He chuckled and said lightly: "Not coming."

"Why didn't you come? Didn't I remind Duo'er before that you had to go to Sunjiagou to inform Cui'er's parents?"

If that orphan girl is really recorded in Jin Nan and Cui'er's name, she is the legitimate granddaughter of Sunjiagou, so she has to call Cui'er's mother Gapo.
