Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.

 Chapter 310 This child has a really hard life!

The old lady shook her head, "That's not true. There are so many people these days, and I don't know what's going on. And there are people who come here specifically to eat. It's really troublesome for your fourth sister-in-law to make the daily order. But that's okay, your fourth sister-in-law When I get busy, I don’t miss the fourth child so much. I come back and put my pillow on my face every night and fall asleep.”

Hui Niang smiled tenderly and replied, "It's great that Fourth Sister-in-law is like this. She has skills and can support herself."

The old lady was afraid that she would feel sorry for herself, so she said, "You also have skills, and your embroidery work is very good. When you take good care of yourself in the future, I will accompany you to find an embroidery shop in the city. It doesn’t matter whether you make some money with some embroidery work or not. It will save you the trouble of thinking all day long.”

This is what Huiniang had in mind. When the old lady said it, she shook her hand and thanked her.

 “Thank you, aunt, for planning so much for me.”

The old lady patted her hand and said with a smile, "Don't think so well of my aunt, I also have selfish motives. Mr. Yan... No, I heard Li Yong say, are you from a noble family? I thought, wait until you are healthy Okay, we can teach Fu Niu how to read and write, embroidery or other etiquette rules. In short, it doesn't matter to our family to help me take care of this child, but this girl has a foster father like the Marquis, so we can't let her. It’s a joke!”

“Don’t worry, Auntie, this is easy. I will definitely teach Niu Niu everything I know.”

Huiniang agreed immediately. She was extremely grateful to the Li family for taking her in, and she even liked Fu Niu's cuteness and intelligence.

Taking a step back, she now relies on the Li family to make a living and can be a female teacher for Fu Niu, which gives her a little more confidence.

At this point, Mrs. Li asked a few more questions, "Mother Hui, you were at the mine to take care of your father. Now that you are here, what will your father do? And do you want to take care of your mother's family?" Send a message?"

Hui Niang smiled bitterly, "Auntie, my father is not in good health. Even if I follow him to take care of food and clothing, he will never be as easy as before. Last winter, when it was cold, my father's condition worsened and he gradually became ill. .

"I had just made up my mind with my husband at that time. My husband had been helping to find doctors for diagnosis and treatment, but he always said that we should prepare for the funeral. Only then did my husband propose to me in front of my father, and my father agreed. A few days after we got married, he passed away. ”

The old lady was stunned when she heard this. She originally thought that Huiniang and his wife were giving and receiving privately. From this point of view, it was justified. After all, they had the permission of Huiniang's father and did not break the rules.

He was also fascinated by the good news. He lay on grandma’s lap, grabbed a handful of beans and played with them.

Huiniang saw the old lady's expression in her eyes and sighed softly.

“As for my mother’s family, as soon as my father’s accident happened, my mother took her two younger brothers back to her grandfather’s house. She never sent anyone to see her, nor gave her a penny. I… didn’t want to contact him anymore!”

The old lady nodded, "Your mother is indeed too ruthless and unjust. Even if you are angry that your father made a mistake and brought trouble to the whole family, you are always her biological daughter, right? Why aren't you worried about whether you will be bullied in the mine?" "

Huiniang hesitated for a moment and then added, "My biological mother was my father's first wife, and my current mother is a second wife."

 “No wonder!” the old lady grinned, becoming more and more sympathetic, “You are a child who has a really hard life!”

Huiniang's eyes were red, but she still smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm not bitter. On the contrary, I feel that my life is very good and I married a good husband. Although he acts impulsively and sometimes acts like a child, he treats me with sincerity. I have to wait for him to come back!"

“Hey, that’s right! You’re such a smart girl, and my aunt likes it, so that’s how it should be! At any time, we have to look for the better!”

Seeing that the old lady was happy, Huiniang mentioned one more thing, "Auntie, are there any old ladies who are widowed or living alone in the village? I want to... move out. Auntie has many children at home, and she is already very tired on weekdays. I am here to help My aunt and sister-in-law have added more work, which makes me feel bad."

Old Mrs. Li didn't react, she still wanted to keep someone.

Just then, Li Laoer came in from outside and said loudly in the main room, "Mom, the valley is very busy. The fourth brother and sister said they can't come back, so I asked my mother to cook at noon to deal with it."

“Hey, I got it!” Old Mrs. Li responded, and Mr. Li immediately turned around and left.

Old Mrs. Li looked at her son's back through the crack of the window and suddenly understood.

　　　Huiniang is trying to avoid suspicion! Thinking about it carefully, the second brother's wife just died, and the eldest brother should be back in two or three months.

Huiniang lives here, and it is really inconvenient to come in and out.

 It means that everyone in the village is familiar with him and no one gossips about him, which is not good after all.

“Auntie understands, Madam Hui, don’t worry, I will think of a good place for you in the next few days. Take good care of yourself and don’t think too much.”

 “Okay, Auntie.” Madam Hui felt at ease and smiled more gently.

Jiayin liked this master very much, so she thought about it while resting her head on her grandma’s thigh.

 Actually, Mrs. Cui’s house next door has many rooms, so it’s best to borrow one.

 But Mrs. Cui is not around on weekdays, and Huiniang is pregnant. If something happens to her, she is always worried because no one is around.

It's even worse with my adoptive father, who attracts more gossips than at home.

Thinking about it over and over, she really thought of a good place to go, and that was the village chief’s grandpa’s house.

There are three rooms in the village chief's house. The old couple live in one end of the house, and one is still vacant.

Hui Niang lived there and kept company with the old couple on weekdays. Even the miracle doctor Zhang lived in the next courtyard just a wall away. It felt so safe.

While Hui Niang went to get some water, she hurriedly whispered into grandma's ear.

The old lady’s eyes lit up when she heard this. She nodded her granddaughter’s forehead and said, “You’ve really grown up in your mind.”

After dinner in the evening, the old lady went out for a walk and went to the village chief's house. She chatted with the village elder's companion for a few words. When she came back, her face was beaming with joy.

Jiayin knew it was done when he saw it, so he went to the west room with his brothers to play with peace of mind.

School has started, and the brats have been having fun during the Chinese New Year for almost a month. As a result, most of the quizzes were burnt on the first day.

So now, sitting at the kang table, writing Chinese characters and reciting texts, everyone has a bitter face, scratching their ears and cheeks, like a tethered monkey.

Jiayin picked up a piece of fruit and gnawed it, looking at it here and making trouble there, which made her brothers scream even more.

In the end, it was Tao Hongying who heard the commotion and came over, rescued her son and nephews, picked up her daughter, and slapped her angrily, "What are you being naughty about, disturbing your brothers' studies!"

Jiayin grinned, hugged her mother's neck, winked and made faces with her brothers. She was so angry that the boys wanted to make faces in return. As a result, the pen in her hand accidentally made a big mark and she had to write a new article!

Tao Hongying carried her daughter into the east room. Madam Hui took embroidery thread, teased Jiayin, and taught her how to tie her hair.

Tao Hongying tore open a piece of soft cotton cloth and helped the old lady to cut out several sets of small clothes for the baby in Huiniang's belly.

I estimate that the child was born around September. It was a little cold at that time, so I made clothes made of fine cotton, which was suitable for wearing indoors.

While she was busy, she complained to her mother-in-law, "Mom, that side of the valley is starting to look more and more like a tavern. I see that the recent guests are just here to eat, not to soak in the hot springs!"
