ery day, he could carry back several bags of walnuts, chestnuts and dates, even red fruits and yellow pears.Uncle Zhao and others helped tan the rabbit fur and sent it back to Li's family. In winter,...In the kitchen, they were busy until late at night before finally winding down and resting.

The next morning, breakfast was rice porridge and steamed buns filled with the two-flavor filling, using the stuffing made last night. It wasn't wasted at all.

Li Laotai casually asked, "Has it been sent to the backyard"

"I've sent it, I just replaced the rice porridge with millet porridge. Uncle Zhao is getting older, so he needs to nourish his stomach and aid digestion." Tao Hongying arranged the meals thoughtfully and treated the elderly gentlemen exceptionally well.

"That's good, eat quickly. Let's finish all the work today and head to Luo'an Town tomorrow." Li LaoTai instructed, everyone nodded while eating.

Li Laosi, munching on his steamed bun, suddenly remembered something and asked, "Mother, shouldn't we go deliver something to Master Ye"

The whole family was stunned into silence, then they all cried out, "Oh my goodness, we forgot about this!"

"That's right, everything was ready, how could it just be thrown away"

It's all because of Big Brother's business. They were only concerned with recognizing him and it took this long.

Jia Yin blinked her big eyes, almost burying her whole face in the steamed bun.

It's a shame that Ye Gongzi treated her so well, but she actually forgot about him and only focused on opening a shop to make money.

Most importantly, she still remembers to stroll around the pier.

At that time, having just crossed the river, everyone in the village was injured. The garrison wasn't friendly either. Everyone was anxious to leave and didn't take the time to properly see what was happening on the pier side.

"Go, go, Mama, I'm going to take noodles to Uncle!"

"You're too much, little bean! You want to go everywhere!" Tao Hongying tapped her daughter on the forehead.

Your father used to deliver things, he wasn't playing. Besides, Young Master Ye is in the military camp. Your father going in there would be difficult already, and holding you would definitely cause trouble and gossip for Young Master Ye.

She was right. Even the old woman wouldn't relent. She could only coax her granddaughter, saying: "Your father has to hurry on his journey and is tired. We won't go with him to eat dust. Let's go to the academy to see your elder brother. Besides, you're considered a small shopkeeper now, and buying a shop requires you to oversee it personally."

Indeed, this remark delighted Jiayin. She swung her sky-high braid and, waddling with her chubby body, climbed into grandma's arms. "Grandma good, follow grandma," she said.

Tao Hongying rolled her eyes at her daughter's complaints, "You just know how to pamper your grandma all day!"

Jia Yin smiled, baring a tiny white tooth, smug and arrogant.

The house on that side of the wharf was at least seventy or eighty miles away. It would take at least a day's journey to get there, and it wasn't something you could just go to on a whim.

Everyone ate and discussed, planning to go to the academy tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, they would have Li Si take his family to the wharf to deliver things.

At noon, Wang Laodai came to the village again to find Zhang Shini for acupuncture. Then he went to Li's house to see Lao Tai Li and was taken by Lao Tai Li for a simple lunch.

As he was leaving, he took out the pair of jade bracelets from his pocket and hesitantly offered them to Jiayin, afraid of being rejected.

"I saw this at a jewelry store as I was passing by. It's not expensive, but I think it would look nice on Fu Niu."

Jia Yin looked at her grandmother, and Old Li smiled, “What are you looking at This is from your uncle. Your uncle likes Fu Niuer.”

Jia Yin immediately accepted it, holding one bracelet in each hand tightly. She beamed with joy and said, "Thank you, Uncle! You're so kind!"

"Oh well, when Uncle sees a prettier one later, he'll buy you another." Wang Yuwai was delighted and personally put it on Jiayin.

The snow-white arms, like lotus stems, were even more radiant and festive against the backdrop of the agate.

Jia Yin immediately rebelled, wriggling from Grandma's arms into her uncle's embrace. She showered him with praise, saying, "Uncle is the best-looking, Uncle is the best! In the future, Fu Niu will buy delicious food for Uncle and take care of him in his old age!"

Li Laotai couldn't hold back and burst into laughter.

Mr. Wang, who had been softened by the little girl's coaxing like a puddle of honey, was puzzled by the old woman's reaction and asked, "What's wrong Is what Funiu said incorrect"

The old woman explained the concept of "elder care" to her eldest son in detail.

Wang Yuwai couldn't help but chuckle, he gently poked Jia Yin's nose, "Don't worry, your uncle will also do business. When the time comes, we'll work together to earn you some silver."

"Uncle is the best, and Fu Niu likes Uncle the most."

Jia Yin hugged Wang Yiwang's neck and swayed, sweetly and softly, making Wang Yiwang even more reluctant to let her go.

After much deliberation, as there were still matters to attend to in town, Wang, the magistrate, reluctantly departed.

Li Laotai held her granddaughter, standing at the door watching as her son walked away. Only then did a hint of sadness appear on her face.

May heaven help, and let the eldest son remember what happened sooner.

She longed for her son to recover and no longer suffer headaches, but as a mother, how could she not want her son who had been away from home for many years to reunite with her.

Jia Yin didn't want Grandma to be sad, so she started acting up. "Grandma, I have to pee!"

"Oh, hold it in! Don't pee your pants! Be careful, your mother will beat you when she comes back!" Sure enough, Li Laotai immediately lost her sadness and ran to the backyard holding her granddaughter.

Jia Yin leaned against her grandmother's shoulder, giggling nonstop. Her red silk ribbon braids swayed in the summer breeze, adding to the joyful scene!

In the afternoon, Tao Hongying came back early, carrying quite a few condiments and a large piece of meat in her hands.

Jia Yin skipped up to greet her, smiling and saying, “Mom, eat dumplings!”

"You little glutton, didn't you just finish eating last night" Tao Hongying bent down and carried her daughter on her back, pulling a straw basket from behind and binding her daughter to it. Then she started bustling about.

"I'm going to make a jar of preserved meat for you, and have your father bring it to Young Master Ye."

The old woman came out of the house and asked, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Will the meat keep"

Tao Hongying smiled and said, "Mother, rest assured, this thing is not easy to spoil. Young Master Ye can just cook some mung beans and tofu, stew it for a while, and it will be a good dish."

"Oh, speaking of this, I remember now. I'll fetch some salted duck eggs for Young Master Ye to take with him. One with porridge at breakfast time would be just perfect."

The old woman said that she was going to move the salted duck egg stand. Tao Hongying saw that there was no one outside, so she whispered, "Mother, take a few more salted goose eggs."

The old woman nodded in understanding and replied, "Indeed, this is even more peculiar than a duck egg."

Jia Yin was giggling, lying on her mother's back, playing with her fingers and acting innocent. She seemed as if those dozens of goose eggs had nothing to do with her!

Li Laotai gestured to her from afar, and then said no more.

The second day, our family had a mule cart ready, and we packed up some essentials.

Li Laosan and Jia Huan rushed in the car, with Li Laotai holding Jiayin behind them, and Zhao Yuru setting off together.

Tao Hongying envied them and wanted to go and have a look, but unfortunately, she, the head chef, couldn't leave her post here in the valley.

Now that it's the end of June, we're in the hottest time of the year. Even though God has been merciful and sends rain every few days, it's still incredibly hot.

Jiayin sat on grandma's lap wearing the small hat Cui's wife had sewn for her, watching the scenery and feeling extremely happy.

Zhao Yuru smiled, "This child is really lively and willing to come out and play."

"Isn't that right As soon as you step out, it's like a little bird flying out of its cage." Old Lady Li turned her large straw hat, shielding her granddaughter from some more sunlight.

"From now on, when our family has money, we'll buy a carriage with a canopy. Then we won't be afraid of the sun."

After more than an hour of travel, the group arrived at Luo'an Town. People chuckled and chatted as they reached their destination. It was still daytime, with students attending classes and the marketplace relatively quiet. that her older brothers had discarded, and then she kicked it around with her sister-in-law and Xiao Huli.Thus, in the small courtyard, a young little daughter-in-law, a chubby girl, and a little fox...
