At night, Feng Zhuohua lay in Xie Yunxiao's arms, thinking about what happened today, and said, "Do you think Xin Nian likes that girl?"

In the first year, Xie Xinnian was often in a daze and often sent people to look for him. He thought he cared about her and said, "I think so."

"If you have someone in your heart, would you marry another woman?"

"I don't know."

"Tell me, let me know what men think."

Xie Yunxiao didn't think much about it and said, "Look at the eldest brother and the second brother. If you like her, there will be no delay in marrying her."

Feng Zhuohua sat up and said, "Then you can blame me for trapping you."

Xie Yunxiao reacted in an instant and said, "Why did you think of me when you weren't talking about others?"

Feng Zhuohua said: "You are my man. You face me every day at home. Will you dislike my fading looks and regret that there is no one else to accompany you?" She has been dressing in front of the mirror recently, and often lamented that she is no longer young, while Mr. Xie San is the same as always. On the contrary, he looks more and more handsome the more she looks at him.

Xie Yunxiao felt that this woman deserved to be punished, and she was actually having wild thoughts. Before pressing her down, he gave her a reassurance and said, "My woman, I have used tricks and risked my life for her. No one is more important than you."

He was very serious. The person in front of him was a little sweetness in his bitter life. This sweetness was growing bigger and bigger, covering up all the bitterness, making him very satisfied now. Seeing his wife and children every day, he felt at ease. These were the days he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Feng Zhuohua admitted his mistake and said, "I was wrong."

"Well, if you make a mistake, you will be punished."

Xie Yunxiao’s words brought back memories of the past. Life is not easy nowadays and we really have to live every day well.

The next day, Feng Zhuohua and Luo Mingrou followed Feng Jinzhao to the yamen, while Xie Yunxiao stayed at home to take care of the children. Now they could live the life they wanted, and they were very comfortable and relaxed.

Early in the morning, Feng Jinzhao went to find Captain Zhang.

Yesterday's chief constable did not dare to neglect the county lady and the eldest daughter when he saw them coming. Feng Zhuohua asked, "What was the name of the woman yesterday?"

Captain Zhang said, "The lady's surname is Yuan, and her name is Jin Jin."

Luo Mingrou asked: "Is it that person?"

Feng Zhuohua nodded and said, "It's time."

Luo Mingrou said: "Then why are we waiting? Let's go and take a look."

Seeing that his wife was anxious, Captain Zhang immediately took his men to Wutong Lane.

At this time, a group of people rushed into the city. Xie Xinnian had traveled all night and was very tired. The followers behind him were also miserable.

When they arrived at the destination, everyone immediately began to rest. Even Xie Xinnian was so tired that he fell asleep immediately.

Captain Zhang took his men to Wutong Lane and knocked on the door.

After a long time, no one opened the door. Instead, a neighbor came out and asked the head of the police station, "Have you found the thief?"

Captain Zhang said, "No."

"So what are you doing here?"

"The Magistrate's wife came to see Miss Yuan."

It turned out to be the county magistrate's wife. Both were noble women. The neighbor aunt came forward and said, "Meet the madam."

Luo Mingrou nodded and asked, "What girl lives here?"

Neighbor Yin said, "Mrs. Yuan is a pitiful person. She came here alone to give birth to a child and raise the child. Earlier, she said her husband was a peddler and we believed her. But after a while, she gave birth to a child without a husband's family. We realized that this woman was a woman householder. We admire her courage. No wonder she often stays at home."

Yin knocked on the door again and said loudly, "Madam Yuan, open the door quickly. The constables are here, and the county magistrate's wife is here."

Yuan Jinjin hadn't slept much the whole night and got up late in the morning. She hadn't gotten up yet. When she heard the voice, she got up quickly and shouted back, "Aunt, please help me entertain them first. I'll get dressed first."

Yin sighed, "Look, it's inconvenient for her to do anything alone. You guys can come to my room and sit for a while."

Feng Zhuohua said: "It's okay to wait."

Luo Mingrou asked: "Has she always been alone?"

Yin said, "During this period of time, there are often men entering her house. But every time there is a foreign man, the door is open. I saw that he looked like a scholar, and I also heard that the scholar taught the children to read. I wonder if he is a teacher."

Luo Mingrou nodded and asked, "How old is the child?"

"Three years old."

"That's a bit early, but my daughter also learned to read at the age of three."

"If it weren't for the fact that only wealthy families would invite a master so early, we would have guessed that it was because she invited a master that someone targeted her."

How many people in this world can afford to hire a fortune teller? This is tantamount to showing off one's wealth. No one would have thought that this woman was so rich and had a shop outside. The neighbors all knew about it, so her life would not be hard.

Not long after, there was movement behind the door, and I guess everything was cleaned up.

Yuan Jinjin opened the door and her face turned pale when she saw Feng Zhuohua. She immediately bowed and said, "Third Madam."

Feng Zhuohua didn't expect himself to be so scary, and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll come to see you."

The door opened, and several people stepped into the house. Luo Mingrou said to the constable, "You can go back. Everything is fine now."

Constable Zhang responded, "Yes."

Yin wanted to go in, but she felt that it would be inappropriate for her to go in after the police were sent away, so she said, "You guys chat, I'll go back first."

Yuan Jinjin expressed her gratitude and said, "Thank you, auntie." Then she closed the door.

Feng Zhuohua saw the little girl, who was fair and clean, and it was obvious that she had taken good care of the child. She walked forward and squatted down and asked, "What's your name?"

The little girl was timid and hid behind her mother. Yuan Jinjin helped to answer, "Her name is Yuan Niannian."

Feng Zhuohua curved her lips and said, "What a nice name. My daughter's name is Tangtang. Her father likes her very much. He will ask the two children to play together often in the future."

Yuan Jinjin didn’t know how to respond. She was afraid that the Xie family couldn’t accommodate the child, and she was also afraid that the Xie family would take her child away.

Feng Zhuohua introduced to Yuan Jinjin: "This is my mother, and also Xinnian's aunt."

Luo Mingrou, looking at the person in front of her, felt a little distressed. It reminded her of the time when her daughter gave birth to and raised the child alone. However, her daughter had them, and the person in front of her had no one else. She couldn't help but step forward and hold Yuan Jinjin's hand and said, "Child, don't be afraid. You've suffered so much."

Yuan Jinjin didn't know how to respond, so she pulled her hand away and said, "You guys sit down first, I'll go get some tea."

Yuan Jinjin took the children to the kitchen, and Feng Zhuohua and Luo Mingrou looked around the house. Everything was tidy, and she was a diligent girl.

Luo Mingrou said: "My daughter, this girl has a harder time than you did back then."

Feng Zhuohua nodded. Xie Yunxiao was not around when she was pregnant with Yu. She knew the sadness at that time very well. So, when she saw this girl, she felt very distressed and wanted to give her as much care as possible.

There was no fire on the stove yet, and Yuan Jinjin didn't know what to do for a moment, so she came out and said, "There's no hot water yet, you guys sit down first, I'll ask my aunt to help."

Seeing the girl in a panic, Feng Zhuohua stepped forward and pulled her, saying, "You don't have to be busy. I came here to see you. If you feel uncomfortable, we will leave in a while."

Yuan Jinjin said quickly: "I'm not uncomfortable."

Feng Zhuohua pulled the girl to sit down. The round table in the yard was icy cold. Feng Zhuohua just wanted the girl to calm down.
