After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

Yan Qingqing took Mrs. Yan back to her yard, while Li Xiangan took Mr. Yan and the others to the front yard.

Li Xiangan felt that this was a good time to make connections. His mother and his eldest brother were famous enough, and basically everyone who could be ranked in Chengyang County came here. He needs to seize this opportunity.

As soon as Yan Qingqing entered her room, she asked Yuan Huiniang and Li Xiniang to talk with Mrs. Yan and the others, while she went to the bedroom to change clothes.

Ruxue said while taking the crown off Yan Qingqing's head: "Mrs. such a heavy crown must be exhausted."

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight first. I am a little tired, but it is worth it."

Find me some lighter clothes. "

Upon hearing this, Ruxue quickly agreed and found a light white dress embroidered with orchids.

This is the material of Shu brocade, which was rewarded by the emperor. Yuan Huiniang asked people to make it overnight for Yan Qingqing.

This dress looks luxurious yet elegant on Yan Qingqing, which fits Yan Qingqing's temperament very well.

Yan Qingqing felt light all over, and then came out to talk to Mrs. Yan and the others.

Seeing Yan Qingqing change her clothes, Mrs. Zhou said, "Sister, why did you change your clothes? That imperial uniform looks very impressive. If I wear it every day, I will definitely wear it."

When Mrs. Yan heard this, she rolled her eyes and said, "That product looks majestic, but don't look at the weather now. When the sun comes out, it looks like it's going to be on fire.

It's a good thing that your sister has ice available at home, otherwise it wouldn't be so hot that there are three floors outside.

Now that all the guests are here, it's natural to change into cooler clothes.

If you hadn't delayed things, why would we have made Qingqing wait for so long? "

Seeing her mother-in-law getting angry, Mrs. Zhou shrank her neck and did not dare to speak any more.

Yan Qingqing heard the meaning of Mrs. Yan's words. Could it be that her third sister-in-law had become a monster again?

Mrs. Tang looked a little embarrassed at the atmosphere and said with a smile: "You don't know, my sister, that we have opened an ancestral hall in Yanjia Village and included my sister in the family tree."

Yan Qingqing was a little surprised when she heard this. She was a married daughter, how could it be written in the family tree.

Not to mention ancient times, even modern women are not included in the genealogy without special circumstances.

Yan Qingqing looked at Mrs. Yan and asked, "Mom, do the elders in our village agree?"

Old Mrs. Yan chuckled and said: "If you don't agree, they are eager to do it. They surnamed Yan went back sixteen generations to find a seventh-grade county magistrate.

As a result, he died of illness within a few years of being an official.

They took the initiative to find me and your father about this matter. I was supposed to discuss it with you, but your father said it wouldn't do you any harm, so he agreed. "

Yan Qingqing couldn't say anything when she heard this. It was indeed not harmful to her. She was a married daughter. After being included in the genealogy, she would be a share of every good thing in the village, but she would not have to bear any responsibility.

The advantage is that future generations can admire a capable aunt from their Yan family.

My mother and I chatted about home affairs for a while, and Ruyi came back to report that the banquet was about to start.

Yan Qingqing helped Mrs. Yan and went to the front yard.

Because there were so many people coming, the courtyard of Yan Qingqing's house could not accommodate them. After discussion, Li Kaishan and Li Xiangan arranged the seats for the villagers of Canghe Village outside Yan Qingqing's house.

Fortunately, they are all from their own village and don't have to pay so much attention. They can also help usher them in and send them off.

The banquet noodles are very well made, including Yuelaiju's most popular Buddha Jumping over the Wall and boiled cabbage, and Tongpengzhai's signature dishes, glutinous rice pork ribs and fish-flavored shredded pork.

In addition, there are Yan Qingqing’s braised sesame water, braised chicken, roast duck and Zuixian duck, as well as eighteen dishes such as Sixi meatballs, potato stewed chicken, fried potato chips, and sweet potato meatballs.

These are hard dishes. Not to mention that the villagers in Canghe Village have never eaten such good noodles. Even Magistrate Ling was a little surprised.

He praised Yan Qingqing's family for making good noodles, and his meal was worth it.

So everyone is full of mouths and are extremely satisfied.

Yan Qingqing sat at the main table with Mrs. Yan, smiling happily as she listened to the flattering words of the wives.

While she was happy, Mrs. Yan was also a little distressed. How much would it cost to set up dozens of tables with such a good banquet? Although her daughter now has some family business, she also has many children at home.

Others naturally didn't know what Mrs. Yan was thinking.

After the meal, all the guests except Mrs. Yan's family dispersed, and the women in the village spontaneously helped Yan Qingqing's family clean up the stall.

Yan Qingqing told Li Xinniang: "When everyone is done with their work, you can share the remaining food in the kitchen with everyone. It's too hot now and you can't help putting those things away."

If there is any extra, use ice cubes to cool it down to avoid spoilage. "

Upon hearing this, Li Xiniang quickly agreed and went to work with Yuan Huiniang.

Mrs. Tang was very discerning and pulled her two sisters-in-law to help.

Ms. Zhou didn't want to go, but Ms. Tang forced her to do so and she was too embarrassed to retort on the spot.

After leaving Yan Qingqing's room, Zhou shook off Tang's hand and said unhappily: "Sister-in-law, if you want to show that you are hardworking and capable, you can just go by yourself, why bother holding me together.

It's so comfortable to eat iced fruit with ice in the room on such a hot day. "

Tang looked at her helplessly and said: "Brothers and sisters, if we don't have my sister-in-law's life, we shouldn't think about whether these things will happen or not.

I didn't have enough to eat before, but now I can at least have food and clothing thanks to my sister-in-law.

You still want to use ice and eat fruits. Are such expensive things something we farmers can afford?

Brothers and sisters, don’t blame your sister-in-law for not reminding you. If we live peacefully in the future, my sister-in-law will not treat us badly because of our past friendship. But if you can’t handle it yourself, you will only harm your third brother.

I’m afraid your mother-in-law won’t be able to spare you by then! "

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou reluctantly followed Mrs. Tang.

Yan Qingqing looked at Mrs. Yan and asked, "Mom, is there something you want to tell me?"

The other guests had already left, and Tang even pulled Zhou out. How could Yan Qingqing not see such an obvious thing?

Old Mrs. Yan cheered and said, "As you can see, my mother didn't plan to tell you originally, but she was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would cause some trouble, so she decided to tell you in advance. It's better for you to be prepared. .”

Yan Qingqing saw that Mrs. Yan was speaking quite solemnly and listened attentively.

Old Mrs. Yan said angrily: "Seeing that your life is getting better this week, and that you and Heping'er have been appointed officials, Mrs. Zhou brazenly said that you would support several children in the family.

To put it bluntly, I just want you to help Zhang'er. Zhang'er was originally an excellent child, but he was influenced by this idiot Zhou.

You said that you have just received the imperial edict and have so many pairs of eyes staring at you that you can’t make a single mistake. Why is she so ignorant?

It's all my fault that I was blind and married your third brother to such a thing.

If it weren't for the fact that she has given birth to children for the Yan family all these years, I would have asked your third brother to divorce her.

The reason why I came late today was to beat Mr. Zhou at home.

If she does something stupid in front of you again, you don't have to be polite to her. "

Yan Qingqing actually understands Mrs. Yan's feelings very well. If she divorces Mr. Zhou, there is nothing wrong with her except that she is confused about Ye Niang.

If left to his own devices, Zhou would reveal something from time to time.
