Tiedan and his sister were sitting in the yard, picking up gravel from the beans. When he saw Jiang Muxia, he put down the basket and ran towards her happily, "Sister, you are finally here. I missed you so much."

"Oh, really? I bought you some meat buns. Come, eat them while they're hot." The blacksmith shop was doing slow business, and their lives were not much better. The child looked thinner than last time.

"Thank you, sister. We have already eaten in the morning. Can we stay for lunch and eat with daddy?"

"Of course, what's given to you is yours, you can eat it however you want." She pinched his cute little face and responded with a smile.

Although the little girl recovered from her illness, her face was still a little pale. In late autumn, she was sweating and panting after walking a few steps. I'm afraid she was born with a deficiency.

The little girl was a little shy and didn't dare to go forward. She looked at the stranger blankly.

"Come here, sister, and tell me what your name is." The two children looked very similar, both with big eyes and small mouths.

The difference is that the little girl's lips are white.

I guess the child’s mother was not bad looking, but she died early.

Poor two children following a rough man, they have no idea where to get their next meal, their meals are not provided and they are not kept warm or cooled in time.

It’s really not easy to be alive today.

"Sister, my name is Suanzao." The little girl's soft and sweet voice is very cute.

The names of the two siblings were chosen casually. "Your name is Xiao Suanzao. It sounds nice. Suanzao is delicious and can cure diseases. I like it very much."

"Sister, you are wrong. My name is Sour Jujube, not Little Sour Jujube." The little girl was very serious.

"Okay, it's my fault. Your name is Sour Jujube." It seems that this child has a stubborn personality.

After saying goodbye to the two siblings and making an appointment with Uncle Guan to pick up the goods in seven days, Jiang Muxia returned to the shop.

After returning to the village, the two planned to stay at home for two days, pack some clothes, and look for some craftsmen.

Before Jiang Muxia even stepped into the house, she heard the flattering laughter of Jiang Henan and his wife.

Aren't the two families at loggerheads? How dare you come to my house? I'm really impressed.

"Oh, our talented girl is back. She makes a lot of money in the city, but comes home empty-handed. Your grandparents really love you in vain." As soon as she stepped into the door, she was greeted by Zhou Huaihua's sarcasm.

Jiang Muxia did not blush or behave in a flattering manner as she had imagined. Instead, she saw the corners of Jiang Muxia's mouth slightly raised, and he looked straight at her. He walked straight up to her and stretched out a hand towards her head.

Zhou Huaihua instinctively took a step back, stared at her and exclaimed, "What are you going to do?"

"When did you become so timid, Auntie? There is a dead leaf on your head." She turned her hand over and stretched it in front of Zhou Huaihua, and sure enough, there was a withered yellow locust leaf lying flat in her palm.

"Auntie, of course you don't know whether I have a conscience or not. My three brothers were raised by my grandparents and they paid for their own families. Auntie, may I ask how they are filial to my grandparents?" Jiang Muxia said with a calm smile.

Zhou Huaihua was choked and stammered, unable to speak. Her face turned red before she uttered, "How can they be the same? They are boys and will be the pillars of the family in the future."

What a pillar.

This caused Jiang Muxia to sneer, "Good excuse. However, grandpa and grandma are in good health now, but they don't care. Can we still expect them to stay by their bedside and be filial to them in the future? And your third child, his limbs are almost degenerated from lying in bed, right? I really feel sorry for you and uncle. You should be enjoying your retirement age, but you still have to worry about them." She smiled happily, ignoring Zhou Huaihua's red face with anger, and ignoring Jiang Henan and his wife sitting in the yard, and walked towards her own room.

When she opened the door curtain, what greeted her eyes was Lu Chaoyun's long face.

She naturally understood why Lu Chaoyun had such an expression.

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang and Nan did not come here for no reason.

There were unopened boxes of snacks on the table in the room, which seemed to be what they brought.

The purpose of her visit was self-evident. Fang Guizhi's maiden family was from Zaoye Town. She had previously taken advantage of her relationship with the Ye family to get two jobs in the Ye family workshop.

Now that the Ye family workshop has been closed down and Ye Sihui has been imprisoned, her wish has not been fulfilled. She has come to Lu Chaoyun again to ask her to plead for her to work in the Li family workshop.

Jiang Muxia raised her eyebrows, picked up the snack box, turned around and left the house again, came to the yard and put the snacks on the windowsill. From the corner of her eye, she saw Zhou Huaihua, who was holding her grandson at the door of the east wing, staring at the snack box.

She felt contempt in her heart and ignored Zhou Huaihua.

She greeted Jiang Henan and his wife warmly, "Hey, Brother Henan and his wife are here, what a rare guest."

Fang Guizhi had suffered twice from her, so she didn't dare to be careless when she saw her. She smiled and responded, "Sister, you are joking. We are not rare guests. Isn't it normal for us to come and see our aunt? Is your leg better?"

Jiang Muxia smiled and raised her right leg, stretched it forward and backward, and jumped twice. "Look, thanks to my sister-in-law's concern, it's healed a long time ago."

Fang Guizhi smiled awkwardly, "Aunt, Mu Xia is back, you two should have a good talk. We are back now. Please keep this in mind and ask for help. We are almost out of money at home."

Seeing that his daughter was so friendly to them, Lu Chaoyun's expression softened. He was about to agree when Jiang Muxia beat him to it.

"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid you have forgotten the heroic deeds you said in the threshing ground. Let me help you recall them." Jiang Muxia raised her lips and said with a smile, "You said that the Li family workshop had done something shameful and evil, and it was finished. You advised the people working in the workshop to find another job as soon as possible, and you could help to make some connections. How come you have forgotten it in such a short time?"

"Oh, sister, I was blinded by greed, please don't hold it against me." Fang Guizhi's face froze. She didn't expect Jiang Muxia to be so disrespectful to her.

Jiang Muxia retracted his smile, his face turned stern, and he sneered, "I am a mean person, I am very petty, so I will argue with you. My temple is small, it can't accommodate two big Buddhas like you, take your things, and leave before I curse."

Jiang Henan, who had been standing behind Fang Guizhi and had not spoken a word, said in a deep voice with a dark face: "Aunt, we won't bother with the child. What do you think about this matter? We came to you to ask for a favor, not empty-handed. We are very polite. She is too young to say such dirty words."

"My daughter can say whatever she wants in her own home. Who do you think you are? Get out of my house. What the hell are you doing here?" Lu Chaoyun finally let out the anger he had been holding in for a long time.

"You...? Auntie, please help me." Fang Guizhi said humbly, with begging in her eyes. She knew that if she failed this time, she would have no place in front of Jiang Henan.

"You guys go away. Our two families will not have any contact in the future. We are not worthy of you." Lu Chaoyun did not show any mercy this time. This woman spoke ill of him again and again, always using her services to help him and turning away when she didn't. She behaved like a mean person and was disgusting.

Jiang Henan's face was already dark. He pushed Fang Guizhi away and left without looking back. Seeing Lu Chaoyun's tough attitude and Jiang Muxia's disgusted look, Fang Guizhi made up her mind, picked up the box of snacks, a hint of viciousness appeared in her eyes, and left the Jiang family cursing.

"Grandma, I want some snacks." Goudan stared at the snacks in Fang Guizhi's hand without blinking.
