The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

Time flies, and the Mid-Autumn Festival in August is almost here.

Jiang Muxia delivered fruits and vegetables from Xigang Village to the county, and then hurried back to the village.

The cotton and sesame she planted are ripe. She has been living in the other courtyard these days and is busy every day.

When she was returning home from delivering the last batch of watermelons at noon, she passed by the Tang family and saw people gathering in the yard. She tied up her horse and ran into the yard.

"Brother Hu, where is your county magistrate?"

"He is in the study. He just received a letter from the capital. He said that Tang San and Tang Si are coming back with the head of the Xu family and will probably be home before the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"That's great." She was still worried that her brother-in-law and his family wouldn't be able to come back before the holiday and she would miss their first holiday together.

She was anxious to get back to the village. She walked backwards quickly out of the yard, and did not forget to congratulate Hu Daxin, "Congratulations, Brother Hu, on having a big fat daughter. I'll go to your house to see my sister-in-law and little niece some other day."

"okay."

The two acres of cotton planted in the courtyard bloomed like white flowers every day under the scorching sun.

She took her children to pick flowers from morning to night, but they could not keep up with the speed of blooming.

"Xiaoyao, spread the cotton thinner and let the sun shine through it so it won't get moldy. The yarn you spin will be white, bright and not easy to break, and the cloth you weave will be soft and comfortable."

"I see. Sister Jiang, can we make clothes with cotton cloth?" Xiao Yao tilted her little face up and smiled brightly.

"of course can."

"Oh, we have new clothes to wear!" Xiao Yao jumped up happily, stumbled and fell on the cotton, which covered her body with white fluff. She rolled around on the cotton excitedly.

Jiang Muxia raised the corners of her lips, feeling happy for their happiness.

Xiaonan followed Daqi down the hill behind. The willow basket he was carrying was covered tightly with hemp leaves. When he saw Jiang Muxia, he ran over happily and said, "Sister Jiang, look, the grapes in the forest are ripe."

He took a string out of the willow basket, held it in his hand and showed it to her.

"Okay. Wash it clean, call your brother Huzi and sister Xiaoyao, and go eat."

Da Qi stood by the well washing his hands and said, "I'll cut some branches this year and plant one in the yard, so that I don't have to go up the hill to pick it when I eat it in the future."

Jiang Muxia only recently discovered that she had picked up a treasure. Daqi had a great talent in planting trees. He had never learned from anyone else, but after each tree passed through his hands and he studied it for two days, he would know everything about the habits of the tree.

"Yes. We also planted one in our Tuanyuan Residence, one in Sister Jiang's house, and one in the restaurant."

Xiaonan stretched out his fingers and counted one by one, counting all the families he knew, for fear of missing any.

"How come after all the calculations, I was exposed?"

Li Jiyi deliberately frowned to express his dissatisfaction.

"If Brother Li Wu wants to eat, why don't he just come to the yard and pick it? Besides, your family is so rich, you can have whatever you want to eat." Xiao Nan pouted and muttered.

"Hey, you kid..."

Several people were arguing and playing in the yard, with laughter everywhere.

Jiang Muxia was very pleased that these children had suffered so much for so many years and finally got their reward. They were hardworking, kind and willing to give. As long as there were people to guide them, these children would have no worries about not having a good life.

"Sister, I'm back."

Jiang Mutao and Feng Xiaoxia got off work at Li's workshop and came hand in hand.

Feng Xiaoxia drank the medicine for more than a month, and her body recovered a lot. Her face became rosier, and she had more strength, and she could walk normally without any problem.

After recovering from her illness, Feng Xiaoxia returned to her old self, and her personality complemented Jiang Mutao's. Because her family originally ran an escort agency and often interacted with people, she was outgoing, talkative, and cheerful.

By chance, Jiang Muxia discovered that she was very good at needlework, so she asked Jiang Mutao to learn from her for two days.

The two of them have similar personalities, and they are inseparable all day long. They get along better than they do with their own sisters.

It happened that the Li family workshop was reopened at this time, so Jiang Mutao took her to the workshop to work. Although Feng Xiaoxia was six or seven years older than her, Jiang Mutao usually took care of her more.

"Cook when you get back."

"Forget it. My cooking isn't as delicious as Daqi's. Let him cook. I'll help you."

Jiang Muxia asked Feng Xiaoxia to sit down and rest. She tied a cloth bag around her waist and went to the cotton field and came to Jiang Muxia's side.

Jiang Mutao looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she lowered her voice and asked her sister, "When will Brother Xu come back?"

Jiang Muxia stared at her with a strange smile on his face, which made her face turn red. She turned her head away and ignored her.

"You really want to ask about Zhou Yue, right? I received a letter today that they will definitely return to the county before the festival."

Jiang Mutao let out a soft "oh" and looked like she didn't care, but she was already overjoyed in her heart.

I haven't seen him for many days. I wonder if he has lost weight or gained weight, or if he was injured in the battlefield. She dropped the cotton in her hand to the ground unconsciously. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she quickly bent down to pick it up, exhaled deeply, and pretended that nothing had happened.

But she didn't know that Jiang Muxia, who was following behind her, was coughing because he was trying to hold back his laughter.

After dinner, before leaving, Li Jiyi found Jiang Muxia who was washing the pot in the kitchen and said, "Muxia, I won't come tomorrow. The restaurant will reopen in three days, so I have to clean up in advance."

"Okay. I'm confident that I'll leave the restaurant to you." She put the bowl on the shelf, wiped her hands and walked out.

The autumn night was a little chilly, and the moonlight was as bright as a mirror, illuminating the night as if it were daytime.

Jiang Muxia sat on a chair in the yard. Seeing that he was still unwilling to leave, she knew that he had something to say, but he had not figured out how to tell her.

"Brother Jiyi, if you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to hide anything between us siblings."

Li Jiyi then said, "Are you still informing Haitang? I'm not saying bad things behind her back, but she's not focused on her work at all. She keeps her eyes on Patriarch Xu all day, and she's been distracted and broken dishes several times. For your sake, I didn't have the nerve to say anything to her. But this won't work for long, or else..."

Jiang Muxia knew what he meant, but she had been targeting Xu Da from the beginning. Over the past few months, the two of them had barely exchanged a few words.

During the days she had been at the other courtyard, she had come almost every day to ask when Xu Da would be back, and the worry in her eyes was something she had never experienced before, even for her own parents. She was in a state of irritation, and no one could persuade her.

Only when she hits her head against the wall will she understand.

Jiang Muxia had no way to convince her not to work in the restaurant, for she was afraid that she would not give up.

"How about this, you still let her go. Tell her in advance that the broken dishes will be deducted from her salary." It was not convenient for her to tell him Yin Haitang's feelings, as this was a girl's dignity.

"It's not a big deal to deduct money." Li Jiyi shouted into the house: "Mu Tao, Xiao Xia, they're back."

When the three of them left, Jiang Muxia specifically told her sister, "Brother Jiyi has to go to work at the restaurant tomorrow, so don't come after work. The road is not safe at night, and I am worried about you two weak girls."

"Then..." Jiang Mutao thought, what if Zhou Yue suddenly came back and she couldn't see him?

Jiang Muxia rolled her eyes at her and said, "Don't worry, I'll send someone to call you."

"okay!"

The next morning, the weather was clear and the autumn air was crisp.

Jiang Muxia and the children had just spread the cotton on the open ground and started a new round of picking.

Fuzi drove the carriage at lightning speed, without even tying up the horse, and ran into the yard, shouting at Jiang Muxia, "Sister Jiang, come home with me quickly. The imperial edict has come from the capital, and you are asked to receive it."
