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

Mr. Tang and his wife only lived in Suanzao County for half a year five years ago. After confirming that Jiang Muxia had fully recovered, they set off to return to the capital. The old couple returned to their home to accompany their son and daughter-in-law. Three years ago, Tang Bo'an was recalled to the Ministry of Revenue by Prince Yi as an exception. The youngest son, Tang Jize, had no interest in officialdom and now worked as a teacher at the government-run Mingxin Academy.

Life at home was getting better and better. The only thing that worried Old Mrs. Tang was that her second grandson stayed in Suanzao County and was unwilling to return to Beijing.

Tang Bo'an often wrote to ask about him openly or secretly. Prince Yi was very optimistic about him. His achievements in Suanzao County had long been heard by the emperor. Tang Bo'an occasionally mentioned in his letters that the emperor intended to transfer him back to Beijing to serve as an official. Tang Zhongbai always refused clearly.

Now that the old lady was suddenly critically ill, Tang Boan called him back, determined to keep her.

Tang Zhongbai handed his elder brother's letter to his wife, his face heavy, "We have to go back."

"Okay, I'll get ready."

Tang Zhongbai grabbed her and said, "Don't worry, I want to go first, you can follow me."

"No, husband and wife should advance and retreat together." Jiang Muxia rolled her eyes at him and took his hand away, "You want to abandon me again."

"Grandmother is old and her condition could change at any time. We two have to hurry. I'll ask Qingyun, Tang San, and Tang Si to take the children and follow in a carriage, but..."

Jiang Muxia asked for his opinion, "Should we bring our foster father along?"

"Let's go to Xigang Village and ask him in person!"

The two did not dare to delay and led the horses straight to Xigang Village. After entering the village and passing the second crossroads, she saw two carriages parked in front of the old house, and the second uncle came out holding a large bundle.

She sighed and rode non-stop towards Qingfeng Villa.

Jiang Lingye passed away four years ago, and Jiang Yuchang died of alcoholism six months after the old man's death. Qi was the only one left in the whole compound with a foolish and silly little great-grandson, and their life was miserable. Fortunately, the two sons provided food and clothing, so there was no worry in life. But as Goudan got older, he disappeared without a trace.

Qi often spent two or three days searching for someone. In recent years, Qi had become increasingly aging, with completely white hair, a hunched body, weak legs and feet, and eyesight not as good as before.

The second uncle Jiang Yuqing adopted the youngest boy in Tuanyuanju six years ago, and the father and son lived a prosperous life. He couldn't bear to see his mother working so hard, so he thought of bringing her to his side to spend a few days in peace.

Goudan was eleven years old this year, and he was not afraid of anyone in the village. Perhaps it was fate, but when he saw Jiang Yuqing, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he dared not even breathe.

When they arrived in the city, with Jiang Yuqing keeping him company, he didn't dare run around, and Qi could also feel a little more relaxed.

In addition, my sister and brother-in-law lived not far from my second uncle's house, so they could take care of them. For Qi, moving to my second uncle's house in the city was the best choice.

At Qingfeng Courtyard, Chu Ruo heard that the old lady was critically ill, and immediately went into the house to pack a few clothes, "I'll go with you. Ah Li is gone, and I'm her husband, so I should be filial to her."

"Old Chu, I'm going too." Zhang Yi was holding a bundle in his hand, and it was impossible for him to be left behind.

"What are you going to do? Stay here and look after the house." Chu Ruo glared at him.

Zhang Yi had already run to the wine shop next door to ask for a ride. "What's there to see? Aunt Xu and Yidao live here. Your treasures won't be lost. When have we two old bachelors ever been separated? Don't even think about abandoning me."

The one who sent them to the county was Qin Jun, who came to Xinruo Winery from Wuquan Villa to deliver wine.

Over the years, Wuquan Villa has taken on a whole new look. As they remodeled the island, built houses and cultivated land, many people from the surrounding area moved to the island, where they cultivated land and fished, and lived a very busy life. The island where Wuquan Villa was located had long been renamed Wuquan Island. According to Uncle Qi and Dongzhi, who had returned two years ago, a small town with more than 200 households had formed on the island. There were restaurants and wine shops, and a new world had long been opened up.

Xu Da went to the island a few years ago and learned that their pear wine had not been selling well and they had been producing less in recent years, so he worked with Tan Jun and Liu Chuancheng to send their pear wine to Xinruo Winery, and he was responsible for sales. As soon as the wine was delivered, Chu Ruo was about to go to the capital.

After returning to the city, Qingyun and Qinghong had almost packed their luggage, and Tang Zhongbai and Jiang Muxia were ready to set off overnight.

The children followed.

"Mu Bai, don't let Tang San go with you this time. He often works with you in the yamen and is very familiar with the affairs of the yamen. Why don't you let him take over the duties of the county magistrate, and Brother Hu assist him."

Tang Zhongbai thought about it and nodded. He understood what she meant. This time when he returned to Beijing, he was afraid that they...

But things went against their wishes. When they were about to set off, a group of people from the capital came to their door.

A young woman came in and bowed to her, "Greetings, Madam Tang Er. I haven't seen you for many years. You are still as graceful as ever."

Jiang Muxia saw that she had a round face, curved eyebrows, and was well-dressed. She looked pretty and charming. She looked familiar, but she couldn't figure out who she was.

She asked with an apologetic look on her face, "I wonder why you came to my house? I have something important to do at home and I have to go on a long journey. If there is nothing else, I will not accompany you."

The woman looked a little disappointed. "Why haven't you recognized me yet? Sister Jiang, I am Qi Sifang. You persuaded me in Chengyang Marquis Mansion. Thanks to your persuasion, otherwise, I would not have met my husband."

Jiang Muxia quickly went through the details in her mind and finally identified the person. She smiled and said, "You came to see me, is there something wrong?"

"I'm here to propose marriage for my brother."

"Propose marriage?" Jiang Muxia was startled and asked her in confusion, "Your family is in the capital, why did you come to our small county to propose marriage?"

She didn't remember there was a nobleman from Beijing in the county, so whose family was she going to propose to?

Qi Sifang smiled and said, "It's better to call you sister. Five years ago, Aunt Liu was brought here by you, and the family we want to propose marriage to is her family."

"You mean Yishu?"

"That's right. My brother has known her since they were young. This brat has set his sights on her since he was young. My mother has found so many girls for him in Beijing, but he refused to agree. If I didn't ask him, he would not tell the truth. I thought, isn't Sister Jiang from Suanzao County? I have someone in the county, so I volunteered to come with the matchmaker."

Qi Sifang looked at the luggage piled up in the yard and asked, "Sister, are you going out? I came at such a bad time."

"The old lady is seriously ill. We have to rush back to Beijing. I'm really sorry that I can't accompany you."

"Sister, are you talking about Old Madam Tang?" Qi Sifang looked at the maid behind her and said puzzledly, "But the day before I came from Beijing, I attended a banquet with the old lady. She looked rosy-cheeked and in better spirits than I do. I have only been away from Beijing for less than ten days, how come she is seriously ill?"

It takes more than ten days for a letter to be on the road, but Qi Sifang only took ten days to reach Suanzao County. Tang Boan never expected that someone from Beijing would suddenly appear in Suanzao County.

Tang Zhongbai paused as he was about to put the bag on his horse. What was there to not understand at this moment? He was being urged to return to Beijing in the name of the old lady being seriously ill.

His face darkened and he said angrily, "Nonsense, how dare you joke about grandma's health, brother."
