The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad
Chapter 181 Helping in times of need
After the Lantern Festival, Lu Xinning came to the county specially to pick up Jiang Qianhe and accompany him back to the county.
Feng and Lu Chaocai lived in the Jiang family for half a month, but they were worried about their home, so they said goodbye one after another.
The second uncle had already moved back into the restaurant. When the weather got warmer, Jiang's father and mother also moved back to the Cheng family's home, leaving the restaurant to Li Jiyi and Jiang Yuqing to guard at night.
While Xu Da was busy developing a new drink, Tang Zhongbai began to go back and forth to the yamen. He was busy with official duties every day and was not seen until dusk.
The lantern workshop was back on track, and Jiang Muxia spent most of her time back at the restaurant. The seeds she wanted were delivered to Tang Zhongbai's home the day after the Lantern Festival, and the Tang family also sent two carts of gifts, which made Lu Chaoyun worried and didn't know what to do.
Nanny Jiang stepped in to help, "My wife said that this festival gift was given for a reason, so please don't take it to heart. It won't be too late to resume normal activities after the two children are married."
Lu Chaoyun was at a loss as to what to do, and the only way to make up for her uneasiness was to pay more attention to Tang Zhongbai.
Jiang Muxiajing waited until the weather warmed up completely, hired a few people to clear the weeds in Qingfeng Courtyard, and then started planting. She had her eyes on the wasteland on Beiyangang, where the soil was thick, fertile, and sandy, which was just right for growing carrots and cotton.
She also took a fancy to the saline-alkali land ten miles east of the village, which was her best choice for planting trees.
She is waiting, and she will be able to buy it in May or June.
Jiang Muxia lay on the bed with her eyes open, her thoughts drifting further and further away.
A boundless lush forest seemed to appear before her eyes, with a shallow, clear river gurgling in the middle of the forest. A breeze blew through the forest, making rustling sounds.
This scene appeared many times in her dreams in her previous life, but in real life, she had never seen such a scene with her own eyes.
At some point, she suddenly came up with the idea of creating such a scene herself.
She raised her lips and smiled softly. Could a little girl like her really have such ability? That white land that stretched a hundred miles was a barren land that even men who had worked the fields for many years could not make it right!
Wang Laoqi worked quickly and efficiently. Within three days, he not only reached an agreement with a merchant from the south to sell lanterns on his behalf, but also bought 20 acres of wasteland in Bali Village. He waited until the weather got warmer in March to start planting bamboo.
The lantern workshop was run by him and Lancao, so she could let go completely.
The next afternoon, after finishing work in the restaurant, Jiang Muxia's aunt and cousin Chang Juan came to the shop.
"Muxia, we haven't seen each other for a long time. We came to see your grandma."
It's been a long time since we last saw each other. The last time I saw my aunt was when she left Suanzao County in her previous life. My aunt and my cousin stopped her on her way out, gave her three pieces of clothing and some dry food, and stuffed a small purse into her arms before she left.
After they left, she opened the box and saw a piece of silver inside. It wasn't a lot of money. She didn't know how long it took her aunt to save up such a small amount of money, and she gave it all to her.
This tael of silver came in handy at a critical moment on the journey, otherwise, she would have died before reaching the Western Regions.
When she saw them again, her eyes were red and she cursed herself for never thinking of visiting her aunt in all these days. She was really heartless.
She ran out from the counter and hugged her aunt, murmuring, "Aunt, I miss you so much, how are you?"
Jiang Yuzhi burst out laughing, surprised that her usually reserved niece had become so emotional. In the past, she would just smile and run away when she saw her.
"Our Mu Xia has really grown up and knows how to feel sorry for her aunt." The eldest cousin burst out laughing.
Jiang Muxia adjusted her mood, let go of Jiang Yuzhi, and smiled embarrassedly, "Grandma can't stay idle, we asked her to enjoy her life at home, but she refused and insisted on working in the restaurant. Right now, she is cleaning up in the kitchen, I'll take you to find her."
"It's good this way. Even if I have to work, I feel much better than being at home." Cousin Chang Juan restrained her smile and said in a low voice.
Jiang Muxia learned from her mother that her eldest cousin went to visit relatives on the second day of the Chinese New Year. Jiang Qianhe had just left and the atmosphere at home was depressed. She wanted to persuade Jiang Yuchang and his wife with good intentions.
Everyone in Xigang Village knew that the eldest couple adopted Chang Juan as their adopted daughter because they had no daughter. Chang Juan was both an uncle and a foster father. Chang Juan treated them as her parents.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, before Chang Juan could even open her mouth, Zhou Huaihua drove her out with a sullen face.
"Such a big thing happened in our family, why are you here to see the joke? Don't come to our house anymore in the future."
My cousin was so angry that she cried.
She and her aunt stood at the closed door, panting in anger. Her aunt was always kind and didn't play the tricks of a shrew. It was Aunt Chun from next door who heard the noise and sighed and told them where Qi was. They found the tavern and Fuzi took them to her home in the south of the city.
Chang Juan saw that Qi and Lu Chaoyun were feeling aggrieved and she hugged Qi and burst into tears. Jiang Yuzhi sat at the door with tears in her eyes.
"If you ask me, it's because the eldest sister is too honest. If you scold Zhou Huaihua to her face, she wouldn't dare to get angry." Lu Chaoyun helped Chang Juan dry her tears and advised, "Good child, don't cry. You only have Zhou Huaihua as your aunt. As long as I'm here, I won't let you fall to the ground." She helped Chang Juan tidy up her hair and said with a smile, "Today we have recognized each other. In the future, come to the third aunt's place when you go to the county. If we are not at home, we will go to the Sihai Restaurant at the ferry."
Because of the unpleasantness between the younger aunt and the family, the eldest aunt could only return to Xigang Village to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year. Finally, after this Chinese New Year, she started to visit the family again. Strictly speaking, she started to visit with her second and third brothers again.
Jiang Muxia suddenly had an idea. She remembered that her eldest cousin Chang Juan was very good at stewing meat. If she were to set up a small stall in front of the restaurant, the business would surely be good.
As soon as the idea came up, she spoke up, "Sister, don't you know how to stew meat? There's a ready-made place in front of the restaurant, you can stew a pot of meat and try to sell it, and you can put your stuff in the restaurant after closing the stall. You can stew the meat at home and bring it over, why don't you consider it?"
Chang Juan thought about it for a moment. She was not a pretentious person. She knew that the ferry was bustling with people coming and going, and the passenger flow was extremely large. Doing business here was like picking gold from a mountain of silver, which was no different from picking up money.
"Okay." Chang Juan agreed readily. "I'll come over early tomorrow morning. If possible, I'll bother you more often. But can you make the decision? I heard that this restaurant belongs to the Xu family next door."
"Don't worry, sister. Patriarch Xu is my sworn brother. I have the final say."
A few years ago, my cousin's husband went to the fields to harvest crops on a rainy day, and was struck down by a thunderbolt and died. Rumors arose about the sudden death caused by thunderbolt, saying that her family had done bad things in their previous life, and that the gods could not bear to see them die in this life, so they took her away with a thunderbolt.
For a long time, my cousin and her two daughters were pointed at and talked about whenever they walked on the street.
Fortunately, my cousin is not a pushover. When she meets such a person, she rushes up and starts cursing him, using all sorts of dirty words.
Over time, the villagers forgot about it. My cousin, a woman with two children, had taken root in the village, and no one dared to go to her house to cause trouble.
The ups and downs of these years have made her like an iron lady, invulnerable to swords and guns, and she behaves like a strong man.
"Come over tomorrow and knock on the door. Second Uncle lives in the backyard and he will open the door for you. I will draw a map tonight and ask Uncle Guan to get a car so that you can set up your stall. The car is my opening gift to you."
"Okay, I accept this gift. Thank you, sister." Chang Juan nodded firmly, with a determined light in her eyes.
Jiang Muxia knows very well that it is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide timely assistance.
