I will die early and cannon fodder. I will enjoy great blessings after marrying a sick man.

Before Grandpa Song and Grandma Song left, they slaughtered all the chickens they had fed at home and replenished Xu Erruo's body. Therefore, not to mention chickens, not even a single chicken feather could be found in the Song family at this time.

As for the food at home, Grandpa Song and Grandma Song ate all they could eat. The food they couldn't finish was brought all the way to Kyoto with the idea of ​​not wasting food, and it had already entered their stomachs by now.

The sweet potatoes we are eating now were bought by a few people a few days ago. However, because Song Manman and others were not sure when they would return to Kyoto, they always bought as much as they could eat. Therefore, the Song family really did not have much food left. .

"Okay, leave these things to us. Let's buy enough to eat for a few days during the New Year. Don't buy more, otherwise it will be difficult to return to Kyoto."

After Song Mu finished speaking, Song Geng and others nodded quickly.

In the afternoon, Song Geng, Xu Erruo and Song Mu went to the city to buy things. Song Manman took Song Shi to clean Song Shi's yard.

Looking at the brand-new courtyard, Song Manman nodded with satisfaction: "That's it."

"Well, I don't think I can live here long after my yard is built. I probably won't have a chance to live there in the future." Looking at his yard, Song Shi couldn't help but feel a little pity.

"Why do you think so? We can come back and take care of ourselves when we are old!"

Hearing Song Manman's words, Song Shi's eyes widened: "Sister, are you kidding me? How long will it take for us to come back for retirement? Will this house still be habitable by then?"

"That's true...but we can repair it!" After hearing Song Shi's words, Song Manman touched her nose in embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter, we don't lack housing anyway." Thinking about his several properties, Song Shi immediately thought about it.

The siblings had tidied up the house, and not long after they had rested, Song Geng and the others came back.

"Manman, we also bought a few fish, you can see how to cook them well."

"Let's steam or make soup. It's easier that way." After thinking about it, Song Manman said to Xu Erruo. Although her cooking skills were good, she couldn't fry fish.

"can."

When Song Hongqi and others arrived, they saw that Song Manman and the other five people were very busy.

"Manman, small farming."

"Uncle Three."

Song Hongqi put the things in her hands into the kitchen and took the shovel from Song Shi's hand: "You guys are blowing up New Year's goods like blowing up a house. I saw these fireworks from afar."

"This is not the first time to explode New Year's goods. I don't have much experience!" After hearing Song Hongqi's words, Song Mu scratched his head in embarrassment.

Song Shi also quickly took a back seat: "Third Uncle, cooking also depends on talent. We don't have this thing in our bones."

Listening to Song Mu and Song Shi's words, Song Hongqi thought of the meals Chen Fengzhi cooked before the family was separated, and said nothing more.

"Xiao Geng, come and light the fire. Xiao Mu, go and chop the meat. Chop it into small pieces for us to make dumplings. Xiao Ping, knead the noodles. Xiao An, come over and fry the meatballs."

Listening to Song Hongqi's arrangements, Song Shi pointed at himself: "Uncle Third, what about me?"

"Xiao Shi, you and Xiao Man wash the dishes that need to be washed and chop the dishes that need to be cut. Erruo and Manman, just rest!"

After hearing about his work, Song Shi took Song Man, who had just arrived, to sit in the yard with two small basins.

"By the way, Xiaoman, didn't Third Uncle say he was going to Third Aunt's parents' house? Why are you back so soon?"

"We went to see grandma and grandpa. My dad said he was worried about you guys, and then hurried back with the three of us."

"so."

Song Man looked at the black charcoal food that had been cleaned up, shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I originally thought it was my dad who made a fuss, but seeing what you just said, I can only say that ginger is still spicy. I Still too young.”

After a pause, Song Man looked at Song Shi in surprise: "By the way, when my dad wasn't here, we could still cook. Why did you almost set the kitchen on fire with what you did today!"

"No, cooking and frying are different. If you don't control the heat properly, isn't that what happened?"

Song Man thought about it for a moment, then turned around and continued washing vegetables: "That seems right, we didn't eat anything fried a few days ago."

Although Song Hongqi did not arrange work for the two of them, Song Manman and Xu Erruo were not idle either.

Song Manman poured all the candies and melon seeds bought by Xu Erruo and others into the fruit plate: "Sister-in-law, do you think it's okay for me to present them like this?"

"Okay, Manman, do you think I put this in this line?"

"Okay, it looks pretty good."

After finishing, Song Manman and Xu Erruo sat on chairs and watched Song Hongqi and others frying New Year's goods.

"Our year is really boring. I don't know how Xiaoyi, Xiaoming and Xiaojing are doing." Thinking about his three sons, Xu Erruo felt a little worried.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, nothing will happen to you as long as mom is here."

"Ok!"

In the evening, after returning to the room, Song Manman opened Song Jiaojiao's suicide note.

The letter paper inside is very thick, with more than ten pages, and each page is written with dense words.

To Song Manman.

By the time you read this letter, I may have gone looking for my daughter.

Two lifetimes of grudges, right and wrong are over. I am writing this letter to you mainly to tell you some important things. In exchange, I hope you can take more care of my third uncle and the others.

……

After reading Song Jiaojiao's suicide note, Song Manman curled his fingers and stared at the scenery outside the window in shock.

She didn't expect that Song Jiaojiao would die in such a miserable way in her previous life. She was stabbed to death by her brother who was a compatriot from her mother's side. Her parents helped cover it up. In the end, there was no one in the family to collect her body.

Just like in this life, Song Hongqi helped bury Song Jiaojiao after her death in her previous life, and Song Guangzong's family also didn't even show their faces.

In her previous life, she did not see Song Jiaojiao die. Her soul dissipated before Song Jiaojiao died and Zhao Shun was not executed.

But it's not surprising to think that Song Guangzong's family is not showing up now. Song Guangzong and Zhao Dezhu were both taken away for rehabilitation, and Du Zhaodi's natal family took Du Zhaodi back to her natal family after seeing Song Guangzong being taken away.

A few days ago, Du Zhaodi's natal family found a widower for Du Zhaodi, and now Du Zhaodi is married.

As for Song Baogen, after Du Zhaodi got married again, he drank heavily all day long. He would go to Du Zhaodi's parents' house to make trouble when he had nothing to do, and he would go to Du Zhaodi's current home to lose his temper. Now Song Baogen has become a gossip in the village.

Therefore, the three of them had no time to pay attention to the fact that Song Jiaojiao was dead. However, thinking about their previous lives, Song Manman felt that it didn't matter whether Du Zhaodi and the others paid attention to it.
