The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

In Qingshui Town, Li Mingli jumped off the carriage to stretch his muscles.

"Mom, it's getting dark now. We haven't even rested in Fucheng. Why don't we stay in the town for one night? The second sister-in-law in town must have arranged for someone to clean the courtyard on weekdays, so we should be able to stay directly." Li Mingli stretched out his hand. He crossed his arms and looked at the tired-looking Wang in the carriage. Even he was exhausted.

I hurried back all the way because my mother said that the weather was fine and the road was smooth. If I didn't have a hard time going there, I would hurry up and go home early.Therefore, the mother and son did not stop to rest on the road.As a result, the journey back was no easier than when he went there. Li Mingli was sore all over and just wanted to find a bed to lie down for three days and three nights to relax.

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth and braced her waist, still thinking that she could rush home early. No matter how many houses she had outside her home, she could not compare with the peace of mind of sleeping in Lijiacun.In fact, I just miss Old Man Li in my heart. The person I have spent most of my life with is missed after being apart for so long.

"Your father and the others are all in the village, there is no need for us to stay. As for the last trembling journey, we and I held on tight. We feel at ease if we go back as soon as possible."

"Hey, okay, let's walk for the last bit." Li Mingli thought in his heart that he was so tired that he would fall asleep somewhere, but on the surface he didn't want to go against the Wang family's wishes. As a son, he naturally knew his mother's thought.After being away from home for so long, my mother must have missed Lijiacun very much.

The carriage continued to move forward in the direction of Lijia Village. There was still a trace of blush in the far horizon. The moon here had quietly hidden behind the clouds. At this time, there were no pedestrians on the road. There were people rushing in the carriage. The child retained the last bit of energy and sat quietly.

In Lijia Village, the Li Danian family living at the entrance of the village heard something moving.

"There is the sound of a carriage!" Li Danian put down the sweet potatoes he was washing and told his wife next to him to stand up and go to the village road to have a look.

"Is there some merchant here? Why did you come here after dark?" asked the New Year's Eve daughter-in-law.

"It doesn't look like it. I seem to have seen Mingli!" Danian rubbed his eyes and was sure that it was Li Mingli sitting next to the coachman. He immediately called his son to go to Li's house to inform Old Man Li.

"Hu Zai, hurry up and call you Mr. Ping An. Just tell him that your Uncle Mingli is back. No, your Grandma Wang is probably back together. Hey, hurry up~"

Tiger boy got his father's orders and ran out.

After the carriage entered, Li Danian greeted: "Ming Li, is aunt back?"

Mingli, who was sitting next to the coachman, smiled and looked at Brother Nian in front of him, feeling silently happy in his heart that he was finally home.

"Hey, Brother Nian, my mother and I are back. How are you in the village lately?"

Wang heard the sound and signaled Dongxiang to lift the curtain.

"Auntie." Li Danian and his wife greeted Wang again.

"Hey, how are you doing lately?" Ms. Wang looked tired but still had a smile on her face.

"It's okay! Auntie, you go home first. I have asked Tiger Boy to go home and notify Uncle Ping An."

Mingli stopped chatting and the carriage continued to drive home.At this time, people living on both sides of the village road already knew that Wang was back, and came out to greet her one after another. However, everyone knew that they must be tired from rushing home so late, so there were not many people. Small talk, just let the carriage go back quickly.

At Li's house, Old Man Li, his wife Mingyi and his little daughter had already come out to wait, and everyone couldn't help but take a few steps to greet them.In the house, all the servants were busy, boiling water and cooking, so that Wang, mother and son could wash away the dust and fill their bellies as soon as they could enter the house.

"Dad!" Li Mingli saw Old Man Li and others from a distance.

"Hey~ How did you get home so soon? I thought I had to wait for a few days."

Li Mingli said: "Aren't you in a hurry to go home?"

The carriage stopped in front of Li's house.

"Mother!" Mingyi and others shouted to Mrs. Wang. Mingmei and Wu Yi thought of stepping forward to help Mrs. Wang down, but they didn't expect that Old Man Li got there first.

"Let's go in and eat first, then wash up and rest early." Old Man Li looked at Wang and seemed to have lost weight.

Mrs. Wang only relaxed from the moment she stepped into the door of Li's house. She only nodded and was unwilling to say a word. She was exhausted and allowed Old Man Li to arrange things.

Li Mingyi also put his arm around Mingli's shoulders: "Third brother, the bed is made. After eating, wash up and then go to bed. If anything happens, let's talk tomorrow."

Ming Li: "I'm afraid I won't be able to get up tomorrow."

"Okay, just stay in bed for a few more days. You'll finally get home and have plenty of time to chat!"

The family had a simple meal with the mother and son and then dispersed, leaving the returning people to rest more.

In the dormitory of the main courtyard, Old Man Li brought Ms. Wang a footbath to soak her feet, and then helped Ms. Wang scrub her back and briefly scrub her head.Wang couldn't take a bath like Li Mingli. With her body lying there, she could only scrub it for a few days before washing it properly.

"Go to sleep!" After everything was done, Old Man Li asked Wang to lie down.

Wang felt at ease and lay down to adapt to the situation for a while before slowly falling asleep.

Li Mingli persisted until he finished taking a shower, lay on the bed and fell asleep with the pillow on his face.

The Li family was extremely quiet today, and the servants on night duty walked more slowly.

The next day, Mrs. Wang woke up from hunger, and Old Man Li stayed with her in the room.

"What time is it?"

When Old Man Li saw that the person was awake, he ordered someone to bring hot water and food.

"It's time! Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Ms. Wang: "My whole body aches." Old Man Li felt a little distressed and said, "I'll massage your body after you eat. Just lie down and have a good rest these days."

"Yeah." Wang responded.

Li Mingli got up at noon, had a meal and went back to sleep.Young people should recover faster and get more sleep to restore their energy and spirit.

Wang recovered for five days before leaving the main courtyard.Mingzhi received the letter and took a few days off from school and rushed back.

Li Mingli thought to himself that next time he and his mother were on the road, they couldn't let her arrange it. Her mother's body could not withstand such a condition.

"Mom, try this soup, I made it myself." Mingmei helped Wang fill a bowl of soup.After coming back for a few days, the family finally sat down to have a meal together.

After not seeing each other for several months, Wang looked at Li Mingmei more calmly, although her face was also a lot darker.I was thinking that I would have to run outside every day, that’s all~

"It tastes good!" Wang took a taste and looked at Mingmei with a smile on her face.

"Hey, mom, just drink it if you like." He turned around and picked up another big stick bone for Ming Li.

"Third brother, you have worked hard too. Eat more to make up for it."

"okay!"

The family had a pleasant meal and then sat in the main courtyard chatting.

"Big brother and sister-in-law are short of people there. I want to send some people over to help." Li Mingyi muttered. After the third child came back with energy, he took Mingyi and talked about a lot of things in Shiyang County. The whole family also talked about it. It’s not easy to understand Yunlan and Akihito’s situation there.

"Do you have enough people on hand?" Wang asked.

Li Mingyi: "They are from our village. My sister-in-law wrote to me before and said that if the villagers are willing, we can recruit some people to go. Our soap and wine shops have trained many people. I will ask when the time comes and arrange for those who are willing to go there. Help me, it’s not like letting them live there, it’s just a temporary assignment, huh~ I told my sister-in-law, the wages will be higher than here at home.”

Wang nodded: "Just make arrangements." After that, he turned to Mingzhi.

"Is the fourth child's studies going well?"

Ming Mingzhi now has the character of a scholar, and responded to Wang: "Yes, mother. I am not in a hurry to take exams now, and my daily studies are quite easy. I also thought that next time there is a convoy to Shiyang County, I will go there too. Let’s take a look.”

When Wang heard this, she thought of that child Yuncheng.Nodding, "It's good to go out and take a look. Your brother's place is peaceful now."

Li Mingzhi didn't expect his mother to agree so readily, and quickly agreed happily, already thinking about when to go.

"Fourth, don't worry. When the time comes, organize the people and go together. You can't act alone." Mingyi said.

"I know, I have a measure."

"Who is in charge of the school now?" Wang looked at Li Mingmei with a darkened face.

Li Mingmei: "Me...and the second sister-in-law, mainly the second sister-in-law."

"Oh~ Yi Niang went to school too?" Wang looked at Wu Yi.

"Yes, mother, after Grandma Cui left, the school couldn't recruit suitable female teachers for a while, so my little sister asked me to try. I thought that Grandma Wu would help take care of Niu Niu now, and I had free time, so I agreed. ”

Aunt Wu was given to her daughter by Wu Jiacheng. It's not that she doesn't believe in the Li family's arrangements. In fact, she is Wu Yi's daughter, so she is always thinking about her and trying to arrange everything properly.

"Okay, it's good if you are happy!" Wang responded with a smile, knowing that Wu Yi also wanted to help Yunlan share some of the burden.

"I'm happy. Being a husband these days has made me realize how difficult it is for a poor girl." Wu Yi said sincerely. It was true that he helped Yunlan, but the sense of accomplishment that being a husband brought to him was also real.

"What can the in-laws say?" Wang then became concerned about the Zhao family.

On the day Wang and his son returned home, Li Mingyi sent someone to deliver the gifts and family letters prepared by Zhao Yunlan to Zhaojiacun in the dark.

Old Man Li said: "The in-laws want to wait until you have rested before they come to visit you, so they didn't say anything else!"

"Well, maybe they need some time!" Wang thought about Yuncheng boy and couldn't help but look at Ming Mingzhi.

"Are you going to go for a walk in the village today?" Old Man Li looked at Wang and asked, bringing Wang back from his thoughts.

"Okay, I just happened to go to the village chief's house to have a look and talk to Sister Guifang."

The children dispersed, and the couple went to the village chief's house without anyone.Old Man Li walked behind with some gifts prepared by Wang. He looked like Wang's bodyguard. However, Old Li didn't mind this and was very happy to do these things.

Li Chunsheng and Wang Guifang received the couple, and the four of them sat and drank a cup of tea and chatted for a while.

When Mrs. Wang learned that Li Yuqing was pregnant, she was also happy for the child, "Congratulations to Sister Guifang. Now the children at home are safe."

Wang Guifang smiled: "Oh, yes! You are almost there. Do you want to decide on the third child's affairs this year?"

Wang didn't give a definite answer, she just looked at Wang Guifang with a smile.
